What is the ruling on using a hadith as evidence for a medical issue?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Peace and blessings be upon you. How is our Shaykh doing? Praise be to Allah, we are well. If you permit, Shaykh, we would like to take a little of your time. Of course, your young son, but welcome, Hashim. Welcome, Shaykh. May Allah keep you safe. Regarding the same issue, Shaykh, I read to a regular doctor
The Shaykh: No, this is a matter you should not investigate with doctors.
The questioner: But, Shaykh, this knowledge roughly agrees with the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
The Shaykh: I will tell you, meaning, the solution to your problem.
The questioner : Yes, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh: I do not think so, please proceed.
The questioner: The doctor, of course, brought the first hadith: if a man’s water is with a woman’s water, mention it by the permission of Allah, to the end of the hadith.
The Shaykh: Bring me what the second hadith brought regarding the problem.
The questioner: Second, yes, it says in the second hadith, first from a medical perspective, that the man carries forty-six
The Shaykh: Excuse me, I do not want details, Hashim. Tell me what was explained to you, or was it a precedent?
The questioner: A precedent.
The Shaykh: Or a precedent, how is the precedent?
The questioner: It relates to the doubt, and it relates to the doubt and the reminder.
The Shaykh: Okay, a person might say this, but does the hadith give you this detail?
The questioner: Apparently.
The Shaykh: That is it. So what did you benefit from it? You benefited from a scientific aspect that may be correct and may be incorrect, so this is a problem. You are still in the problem, so continue, and perhaps Allah will open the way for you.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : And may He bless you.
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.
The Shaykh: No, this is a matter you should not investigate with doctors.
