[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ chose four of them. Abu Dawud reported that Ahmed ibn Ibrahim reported from Hushaim about this hadith, and Qais bin Al-Harith replaced Harith bin Qais. Ahmed ibn Ibrahim said, "This is correct," which means Qais bin Al-Harith. Abu Dawud reported that Ahmed ibn Ibrahim reported from Bakr bin Abdul Rahman, the judge of Kufa, who reported from Isa bin Al-Mukhtar, who reported from Ibn Abi Layla, who reported from Humaydah bin Ash-Shamardal, who reported from Qais bin Al-Harith, with the same meaning.  

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اخْتَرْ مِنْهُنَّ أَرْبَعًا قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا بِهِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا هُشَيْمٌ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ قَيْسُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ مَكَانَ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ هَذَا هُوَ الصَّوَابُ يَعْنِي قَيْسَ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَاضِي الْكُوفَةِ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ حُمَيْضَةَ بْنِ الشَّمَرْدَلِ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بِمَعْنَاهُ
