Is the hadith of Abu Thalhah, "Do we eat from their vessels," authentic?

Question:
A question about the hadith of Abu Thalhah al-Khushani: [We are in the land of a people from the People of the Book, do we eat from their vessels...]?

Answer:
There is no harm in its chain of narration, but the best that can be said about it is that it is anomalous and contradicts the authentic hadiths. This is because the rule is: if an authentic hadith is contradicted, the contradicting one is of lower status and is considered anomalous. This is because the hadith of 'Uddi is in the two Sahihs, and it is established and explained, and it is also the apparent meaning of the Qur'an: [Al-Ma'idah: 4].
The hadith of Abu Thalhah is in Abu Dawud and some of the Sunan collections. Even if its chain of narration is sound..., it contradicts the authentic hadiths, such as the hadith of 'Uddi and that of Ibn 'Abbas. It also contradicts the apparent meaning of the Qur'an, for he... what he held back was only for himself.
Q: Is this a matter of preferring one over the other?
A: Yes, the best that has been said about it is that it is a matter of preferring one over the other, just as has been said about many hadiths, such as those regarding wudu' from touching the penis. There are many hadiths where preference is applied, and the rule is that if reconciliation is not possible, and abrogation is not possible and its conditions are not met, then only preference remains.
Q: Is this called anomaly or preference?
A: The authentic hadith is preferred over the anomalous one, and the weaker one is called anomalous. One of the conditions of an authentic hadith is that it not be anomalous. If it becomes anomalous, it becomes weak, even if its chain of narration is sound.
