The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that Ibn al-Jawzi (may Allah have mercy on him) is strict with hadiths
The Shaykh:
He is not strict in ruling on the hadiths; he is strict in ruling a hadith as fabricated. He may rule that a hadith is fabricated when it is not. The Shaykh says, and this is rare; otherwise, the majority of what he mentioned is correct. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: So, is what he mentioned in his book "Bustan al-Wa'izin" and "Riyad al-Sami'in" considered all hadiths?
The Shaykh:
These are books of preaching, not books of topics. These are books of preaching; they may mention weak hadiths for the sake of impact only. Yes.
