We request clarification of the scholars' position regarding a hadith in whose chain there is a man whose status is "truthful," given that Shaykh al-Tahhan says

The questioner : One of the brothers is asking, saying: I request clarification of the scholars' position regarding a hadith in whose chain there is a man whose status is "truthful," he says, given thatThe Shaykh : al-Tahhan says that his hadith is weak, ...The Shaykh : al-Tahhan.

Another questioner : The Shaykh : Mahmoud al-Tahhan.

The Shaykh : Mahmoud al-Tahhan.
Answer: Unfortunately, some people force us, when they name individuals, to explain these individuals. Mahmoud al-Tahhan is among these modern doctors whose aim is to obtain a doctorate in the subject of hadith. He did not waste a single year of his life, just one year of his life, to verify what he had read theoretically in books of terminology in order to obtain the degree. So the affliction in the present age is that the masses of readers do not verify a narrated word ...
which Imam Muslim mentioned in the introduction to his "Sahih" ...
... the Amir al-Mu'minin, al-Hafiz Ahmad ibn Hajar al-Asqalani, truly the Amir al-Mu'minin, no one else has deserved this title up to this age, classifies the narrators he mentioned in his famous book "Taqrib al-Tahdhib" into categories. He says, for example: The highest class is those about whom the scholars said "thabit thabit" (firm, firm) or "thiqah thiqah" (trustworthy, trustworthy). Then he descends to a class and says: Those about whom it was said "thiqah" (trustworthy) or "hafiz" (preserver) or "dabit" (accurate). Then, those about whom it was said: "siddiq" (truthful). Then after that, another rank of those about whom it was said: "siddiq sayy al-hifz" (truthful but poor in memory). So I am now drawing your attention to the difference between the one described as "siddiq" and the one described as "siddiq sayy al-hifz." Whoever is truthful but poor in memory is the weak one. As for the one described as truthful without it being coupled with the statement that he is poor in memory, the least of his states is that his hadith is hasan (good).
And my advice finally: That whoever among you is able, not to take from the people of this age, especially those with degrees that are issued perhaps through non-academic, but twisted, means, not to benefit from them in any way, because they speak without verification and without checking, but only to rise a little above those who were scholars before this age; in that is safety from falling into such slips ...
