Summary
The first hadith, the Prophet's counsel to hold fast to the Book of Allah and the Ahl al-Bayt, is narrated by al-Tirmidhi, al-Nasa'i and al-Hakim, among others. Al-Albani graded it sahih after examining its other chains of narration. The second hadith, likening the Ahl al-Bayt to Noah's Ark, is graded daif by al-Albani. It has supporting reports from other companions, but all are very weak and cannot strengthen one another.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Syeikh Nasiruddin al-Albani Rahimahullah menghukumkan hadis ini Sahih di dalam Silsilah al-Ahadis al-Sahihah (1750) setelah menilainya dengan jalan-jalan sanad yang lain.
