The ruling on the hadith of Sadi ibn Ujlan

The questioner:
I ask Allah for your sake, O Shaykh, regarding the authenticity of the hadith of Sadi ibn Ujlan.

The Shaykh:
It means authentic, but with a mention of its goodness. Al-Tirmidhi said it is hasan sahih. If you were to go back and check it, the meaning of "sahih" in the external hadith is "sahih," and in the Noble Qur'an.

The presenter:
Al-Siddah, may Allah guide you. O Allah, to You belongs the secret of guidance and correctness. An addition.

The Shaykh:
Perhaps I said, "The secret of your Lord is guidance and correctness," and mention the guidance of the path, and the correctness of upbringing. The secret of your Lord is that Allah guides you to the right, and makes your words and deeds correct. Muslim also narrated it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), saying, "The secret of your Lord is guidance and correctness." As it came in the Qur'an, you read it as it was revealed, like what is in the verse of the Most Merciful and others; you read it as Allah revealed it.
