abudawud:3814Naṣr b. ʿAlī And ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh > Zakariyyāʾ b. Yaḥyá b. ʿUmārah > Abū al-ʿAwwām al-Jazzār > Abū ʿUthmān al-Nahdī > Salmān

Salman said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about locusts. He replied in a similar way(as mentioned above) saying: The most numerous of Allah’s host. The narrator ‘Ali said: His name is Fa’id, that is the name of al-Awwam. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Hammad b. Salamah, from Abu al-Awwam from Abu uthman, from the Prophet ﷺ. He did not mention salman (i.e., the companions).  

أبو داود:٣٨١٤حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُمَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَوَّامِ الْجَزَّارِ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ فَقَالَ مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ أَكْثَرُ جُنْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ اسْمُهُ فَائِدٌ يَعْنِي أَبَا الْعَوَّامِ  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَوَّامِ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ سَلْمَانَ
