What is the validity of their saying: “Every hadith scholar is a jurist, but not every jurist is a hadith scholar”?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the validity of this phrase, which is “Every hadith scholar is a jurist, but not every jurist is a hadith scholar”?

Answer:
This phrase has no basis. It has no basis. What is meant by “every hadith scholar is a jurist”? There are hadith scholars who only memorize, and there are jurists who only understand the meaning of the hadiths. And there are those who combined both memorization and jurisprudence, and they are called the jurists among the hadith scholars, such as Imam Ahmad, Imam Malik, Imam Ahmad, Imam al-Shafi'i, and al-Bukhari. These are the jurists among the hadith scholars. Yes. And there are those who are only memorizers and do not specialize in hadith jurisprudence, but they are responsible for preserving the hadith and guarding it from fabrication and the intrusion of lies. They have a great reward for that. Yes.
