Is the authenticity of a hadith established by the verification of the text if there is disagreement regarding its authenticity, such as the hadith of Ruwayf?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Regarding the hadith of Ruwayf, there is disagreement about its authenticity. Should it not be said, or is it not argued, that its authenticity is established by the long life of Ruwayf, since the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made that supplication for him?

Answer:
From the perspective of narration and the narrators, what is the case from the perspective of narration? If he lived a long life and his statement agreed with the statement of the Messenger, that is one matter, but the narration, its narrators, and the statements of the narrators are another matter, yes.
