Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In Ramadan, Honorable Shaykh, some hadiths come through mobile phone messages, and at the end of the hadiths it says, “Spread them and you will have reward.”

Answer:
No, this is not acceptable. One must know the source of the hadiths, which book they are from, and their grade of authenticity. It is not permissible to spread hadiths in this manner, as it opens the door for liars and the ignorant. Yes.
