What is the ruling on referring to the book Nasb al-Ra'yah?

Question: Oh Allah. Where is it? And peace be upon you. Which of the five parts is the best? I am the one who asked about the books on independence and others.

Answer: I mentioned to you regarding Nasb al-Ra'yah that it is one of the most important sources that no researcher of authentic and weak hadiths can do without. However, it is noted that it often does not give the rank of the hadith or the rank of its chain of narration. Furthermore, it softens the judgment on a hadith if it appears in the book for which he is tracing the hadiths, which is al-Hidayah by al-Marghinani the Hanafi. In many cases, a hadith in al-Hidayah has no basis in the books of the Sunnah, yet he does not state or clarify this fact; rather, he alludes to it by saying "gharib" (strange). In the terminology of hadith, "gharib" means a hadith whose chain of narration is weak. However, he adopted a specific usage, meaning by the word "gharib" that it has no basis in any of the books of hadith. This is something that everyone who refers to the book Nasb al-Ra'yah for the hadiths of al-Hidayah should be aware of. Then there is the book Mukhtasar Nasb al-Ra'yah by al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani, which is an abridgment of Nasb al-Ra'yah. However, in many cases, it is more beneficial than the original because it supplements what al-Zayla'i omitted, such as mentioning the ranks of hadiths that al-Zayla'i remained silent about. So, despite its brevity, it is a very beneficial book. As for al-Talkhis al-Habir, it has compiled the benefits of all books of takhrij, whether Nasb al-Ra'yah or others that preceded it, and it rarely remains silent about some of the chains of narration that it mentions during the tracing of a hadith. This is what appears to me and what comes to my mind in answer to your question. May Allah bless you.
