عَنْ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُنْذِرِ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ سَيِّدُ الْأَيَّامِ وَأَعْظَمُهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْأَضْحَى وَيَوْمِ الْفِطْرِ فِيهِ خَمْسُ خِلَالٍ: خَلَقَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ آدَمَ وَأَهْبَطَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ آدَمُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَفِيهِ تَوَفَّى اللَّهُ آدَمَ وَفِيهِ سَاعَةٌ لَا يَسْأَلُ الْعَبْدُ فِيهَا شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ مَا لَمْ يَسْأَلْ حَرَامًا وَفِيهِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ مَا مِنْ مَلَكٍ مُقَرَّبٍ وَلَا سَمَاءٍ وَلَا أَرْضٍ وَلَا رِيَاحٍ وَلَا جِبَالٍ وَلَا بَحْرٍ إِلَّا هُوَ مُشْفِقٌ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ ". رَوَاهُ ابْن مَاجَه وَرَوَى أَحْمَدُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: أَخْبِرْنَا عَنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ مَاذَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ؟ قَالَ: «فِيهِ خَمْسُ خلال» وسَاق الحَدِيث

Abu Lubaba ibn Abd al-Mundhir reported that the Prophet said: Friday is the master of days and the greatest of them in God's sight. It is greater in God's sight than the Day of Sacrifice and the Day of Breaking the Fast. It has five distinguishing features: God created Adam on it; sent Adam down to earth on it; and caused Adam to die on it. It has an hour in which a servant asks for nothing without being granted it, provided he does not ask for something unlawful. And the Last Hour will occur on it. No angel brought near to God, no heaven, no earth, no winds, no mountains, and no sea fails to be apprehensive of Friday. Ibn Majah transmitted it. Ahmad transmitted a report from a man of the Ansar, who asked the Prophet what good Friday contains. He replied: It has five distinguishing features, and he related the hadith to its end.

عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ
The Arabic identifies Saad ibn Ubadah in the second report, while the English witness says Saad ibn Muadh.
Should the Arabic attribution be followed, or should the witness name Saad ibn Muadh be used?
