Is it possible for an external cause to attach to the hadith of a precise, fair narrator, resulting in its weakness?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If the narrator is precise and fair, is it possible for a cause to attach to his hadith that results in its weakness? For example, an external cause other than his precision and fairness.

The Shaykh : I did not understand.

The questioner : If the conditions are met in the narrator in terms of precision and fairness, is it possible for an external cause to intervene and result in the weakness of his hadith? For example, Abdullah al-Misri, whose neighbor would recite hadiths between his books. Does this not fall under precision and fairness? Is it an external cause that results in the weakness of the hadith?

The Shaykh : And otherwise, this cause is negligence. The cause is negligence.

The questioner : What does it intervene in? Negligence?

The Shaykh : how

The questioner : Negligence.

The Shaykh : What does it intervene in?

The questioner : It intervenes in precision, meaning

The Shaykh : Yes, in the precision of his narration. When it happens, he does not distinguish between what he heard from his sheikh, what he was taught, or what was inserted into his books.
The answer is clear to you.

The questioner : Yes, it is clear.
