Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 24, Hadith 55
[Abu ‘Eisa said: ] This Hadith is Hasan Gharib, we only know of it as a narration of ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Tarafah. Salm bin Zarir reported similar to the narration of Abu Al-Ashhab from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Taraqah – “from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Taraqah.” It has been related about more than one of the people of knowledge that they would brace their teeth with gold, and in this Hadith there was a proof for them.
‘Abdur-Rahman bin Mahdi said: “Salm bin Zarin” but that is an error, “Zarir” is more correct, and Abu Sa’d As-San’ani’s (a narrator in this chain) name is Muhammad bin Muyassir.
