The questioner : In the name of Allah, and may prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad ibn 'Abd Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and upon his family and his Companions.
As for what follows: May Allah preserve you, O honorable Shaykh. Does the silence in *Tammam al-Mannah* regarding hadiths imply their authenticity? And regarding jurisprudential rulings, does it imply agreement with the position of Shaykh Sayyid Sabiq? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : The default is so; that is, if a jurisprudential ruling in *Fiqh al-Sunnah* or a Prophetic hadith is mentioned and I remained silent about it without pointing out its weakness, the default in both cases is that I agree with the authenticity of the hadith and the establishment of that jurisprudential ruling, unless it escaped my sight, my review, or my mind, and the one who is protected from error is the one whom Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) protects. Yes.
