Acting on Weak Narrations in Matters of Worship

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh. What is the correct position regarding the statement that we may use weak narrations in matters of worship, and that we must only stay away from fabricated narrations?

Answer:
Weak narrations are acted upon only in encouraging good and warning against evil, and in preaching. As for using them as evidence for prohibition, obligation, or recommendation, this is not permissible; rulings are not established based on them. Yes.
