Question:
The Shaykh Abu 'Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with both of them), Muhammad ibn Abi Wahab, was mentioned, because the greatest thing that was revealed from his companion from the people of the earth is the ultimate end, and a god who is the Creator of the thieves of one, so what is authentic is the standing of one, and what is acceptable is one
Answer:
The point we mentioned to you is that the statements of the scholars are not accepted in their absolute form, but they must be presented to the evidence. Also, not everything attributed to an imam among the imams is authentic, so verification is necessary. The books of the school of jurisprudence, whether among the Hanbalis or others, contain opinions of scholars who came after the imam, which they derive from his statements or take from his hints, or they analogize them as independent legal reasoning. They call them takhrij (tracing to sources), they call them wajh (aspects), and they distinguish between what is said. If it is from Ahmad, they say he stated it explicitly, or that Ahmad said such and such. If it is from the opinions of other men of the school, they say this is an aspect, or this is a takhrij, or this is such and such. They distinguish this from that. The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) meant that everything in al-Iqna' and everything in al-Muntaha is not all explicit texts from him; it contains what is from his companions and the teachers of the school. Yes, do we know that everything in al-Iqna' is from the words of Ahmad, or that everything in al-Muntaha is from the words of Ahmad? It is not correct; it contains what is from the words of Ahmad and what is from the words of the jurists among the followers who derive rulings from it or analogize based on it. As we mentioned, they do not leave this distinction; rather, they distinguish it, clarifying what is from the statement of Ahmad and what is from the statement of others.
