Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : My master, the Shaykh, may I ask a question?
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The questioner : May Allah bless you. There is a hadith, half of which is:. This is in al-Jami' al-Saghir. Is this hadith authentic or not?
The Shaykh : If you had found it in “Da'if al-Jami' al-Saghir,” you would have been correct. It is in “Da'if al-Jami' al-Saghir,” meaning it is not authentic.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : First of all, be patient. Second, your wording of it is incorrect; it is ‘Uman, not ‘Aman.
The questioner : ‘Uman.
The student : Do you want everything to be ‘Aman?
The questioner : One person told me about the hadith, and I said to him: This is not authentic, but I will ask the Shaykh about it for you today.
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
