The Ruling on Adhering to a Weak Hadith in Encouragement
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Other than the hadith.
Answer:
Regarding encouragement and warning, if it is in authentic hadiths, the response to a weak hadith is to take comfort in it for the sake of encouragement and warning, provided that the original is authentic and established. For example, the hadiths regarding the virtue of prayer, the virtue of fasting, and voluntary worship; there are authentic hadiths in these matters that suffice for it, if one does not know it, and likewise from the perspective of the scholars. Allah has made people content with the authentic over the weak. I do not know.
