Is Ibn Hajar’s silence regarding the hadith in his book *al-Talkhis* the same as his silence regarding it in *al-Fath*?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : O Shaykh, regarding the book *al-Talkhis* by Ibn Hajar, if he is silent about a hadith, is his ruling considered the same as his ruling when he is silent in *al-Fath*?
The Shaykh : First, he did not explicitly state that. Second, we do not see that to be established, even with regard to much of what he was silent about in *al-Fath*, although it falls under the general rule. However, every rule has exceptions. Is the answer clear?
The questioner : Yes.
