What is your opinion of the book titled: "Al-Ta'qibat al-Malihat 'ala al-Silsilah al-Sahihah"?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. And may prayers and peace be upon the noblest of the prophets and messengers, our master and our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. As for what follows:
He says:The questioner: His EminenceThe Shaykh : What is your opinion of the book titled: "Al-Ta'qibat al-Malihat 'ala al-Silsilah al-Sahihah"?
The Shaykh : If the book is present, show me some examples. But what I can say is: this author is among those who do not make it their goal to refute Al-Albani; he is the most moderate of them and the most polite. However, he appears to be a novice in this science, as he criticizes things that are not subject to criticism. To recall some examples, if the book is in your hands, please bring it; otherwise, I will suffice with this.
The questioner : "A treasure from the treasures of Paradise," do you remember the hadith? "La ilaha illa Allah."
The Shaykh : Yes, yes, indeed. Among the things he mentioned is:Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 38:58. He said: This is found in "al-Sahihayn," but in "al-Sahihayn" it does not say: . Rather, it contains the hadith of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari, as you know, when he was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey, and he said: Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34:1039. This is established in "al-Sahih." So he does not notice that the narration I cited from some sources other than "al-Sahihayn" contains an addition of the command to say it frequently. This addition is not found in "al-Sahihayn." Therefore, it is a clear and obvious error to attribute this hadith first to "al-Sahihayn," when the phrase is not in them. And it is even more erroneous to criticize the one who attributed it to sources other than "al-Sahihayn," which is the correct approach, without a doubt. I do not remember now whether I indicated that the original hadith is found in "al-Sahihayn" or not. If I did indicate it, then the matter is settled. If I did not indicate it, then it would have been better to indicate it. But to criticize how this hadith was not attributed to "al-Sahihayn"—that is what I referred to when I said he is a novice in this field. And I hope for him all good.
Yes.

Say "La ilaha illa Allah" frequently; for it is a treasure from the treasures of Paradise.
