I searched for this haadith on the internet but couldn't find anything useful to prove the authenticity of this narration.

  • Your question already quotes that the hadith is from Sahih Ibn Hibban, see here – UmH Apr 14 '21 at 13:54
  • Proof of authenticity is a complex research. Usually, we would trust the research done by Al-Albani. Sahih means "very likely to be authentic"; it's not 100% but close-to. – Jeschu Apr 15 '21 at 05:41
  • @Jeschu why would you trust the qualification given by al-Albani? There are many hadith scholars. The hadith also appears in other sources as mentioned in the link shared by UmH. – Medi1Saif Apr 17 '21 at 13:08

As a response to the legitimate question by Medi1Saif above, I put a try of a translation of the original cited by UmH above:

Ibn Alqama bin Waqas al-Laithi al-Madani: Al-Hafiz said in “Al-Taqreeb”: He is honest and (but?) has visions (?), and the rest of his men are trustworthy. Abu Muammar is Ismail bin Ibrahim bin Muammar Al-Hudhali.

Al-Bukhari included it in Al-Adab Al-Mufrad No. (646) through Muhammad bin Abdullah, and Ismail Al-Qadi (18) through Abu Thabit, both on the authority of Ibn Abi Hazim, on the authority of Katheer, on the authority of Al-Walid Bin Rabah, on the authority of Abu Hurairah.

It was included by Al-Bazzar (3169), and it was authenticated by Ibn Khuzaymah (1888) through Suleiman bin Bilal, on the authority of Katheer bin Zaid, with the aforementioned chain of transmission. And it came after him from Al-Maqbari, on the authority of Abu Hurairah.

And in the chapter on the authority of Ka`b bin Ajrah, and on the authority of Anas bin Malik, according to Ismail Al-Qadi No. (15) and (19), and on the authority of Jabir bin Abdullah according to Al-Bukhari in “Al-Adab Al-Mufrad” (644), and on the authority of Ammar bin Yasser, Abdullah bin Masoud, and Jaber Bin Samra, and Abdullah

Abu Hibban, like Al-Bukhari and Muslim, tried to compile a Hadith collection that only consists of ahadith that he considered Sahih.

The quotation above is extracted from Shuaib Al Arnaout - as far as I know a secondary evaluation in Hadith science, meaning that it already refers to prior research (which is usual and cannot be avoided). To make a complete evaluation, it is compulsory to know all sources (even if lost) as well as the «Book of Men». Extent information is compiled in this Wikipedia article.

For a valid evaluation of a Hadith, you really need to study in depth. Answers on this site will always be on the base of evaluation of people who have studied in depth.

Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani (professor of Hadith science at the Islamic University of Madinah in the past century and member of the Wahabite movement) estimated this Hadith Sahih. Unfortunately, I did not find any public access to his works. They are often referenced on Sunnah.com.
