I set out with Ibn Umar on the day of departure from Mina, and a caravan of Yemenis passed by us. Their saddles were of leather and their camels' nose-ropes were of khazm fiber.Abdullah bin Umar said, "Whoever wishes to see the caravan among those who came for Hajj this year that most resembles the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions when they arrived for the Farewell Pilgrimage, let him look at this caravan."
حدثنا هاشم
صدرت مع ابن عمر يوم الصدر فمرت بنا رفقة يمانية ورحالهم الأدم وخطم إبلهم الخزم فقال عبد الله بن عمر من أحب أن ينظر إلى أشبه رفقة وردت الحج العام برسول الله ﷺ وأصحابه إذ قدموا في حجة الوداع فلينظر إلى هذه الرفقة

Its isnad is sahih. Abu Dawud narrated it (4:119-120) in abridged form, through the route of Waki, from Ishaq bin Saeed, with this isnad.Yawm al-sadr, with fatha on the sad and the dal, means the day of departing from Makkah after completing the rites. Al-sadr means the traveler's return from his destination.Al-adam, with two dammas, is the plural of adeem, meaning hide or leather. This vocalization with two dammas is chosen to match al-jurur, with two dammas, the plural of jareer, meaning the rope or halter used for a camel, horse, or similar animal. This is an analogical plural not mentioned in the dictionaries, since compilers often record the irregular, orally transmitted plurals in order to preserve them, while leaving aside the analogical plural, since it does not require textual attestation.Many of the overly strict scholars of our time fall into error on this point, rejecting anything they do not find in the dictionaries, forgetting that the analogical form, being a type of derivation, does not require a specific textual precedent.
