Question:
The Honorable Shaykh says that a weak or hasan hadith is not relied upon in matters of 'aqidah (creed). This is also said regarding the wording, as well as the context.
Answer:
We did not say this regarding fiqh (jurisprudence), my brother. We said it regarding 'aqidah: you do not build your creed upon it. As for fiqh, a hasan hadith and a weak hadith that has corroborating narrations are cited as evidence, and a weak hadith is cited as evidence in the virtues of deeds. This is what we addressed.
