The ruling on saying (this family is not from this tribe) by one who knows lineages
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, father, the questioner says: I have an interest in lineages. So if I say that this branch or this family is not from this tribe, but rather from such-and-such a tribe, or that this branch is not an original branch, if I am certain of that, would this be among the denigration of lineages that is prohibited?
Answer:
This brings harm from people upon you. If you say that these are not from the tribe, they will rise up against you and perhaps kill you. As it is said, people are trusted regarding their lineages. Leave them alone. Leave the back of this matter, because it leads to fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) and evil. Yes.
