The Shaykh: The defect in news lies only in its narrators, but I said after looking at some of my follow-up critiques of weak hadiths, it seems he is a memorizer, and it was said to me at that time: He memorizes, I do not know by Allah, they said: the two Sahihs or the six books.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : ... .
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: I said, what?
The questioner: ... they mention about him that ... when he mentioned a hadith, he said in al-Tirmidhi, so one of those present with him said: It is found in al-Tirmidhi, so he said: Bring al-Tirmidhi and open such-and-such page and show me the hadith in ... .
The Shaykh: Yes, this is possible ... .
... ... ...
The questioner: ... I say: 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz on ... what do you say, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh: ... a known virtue ... or unknown? ... I will tell you: a proportion, what proves this virtue? Meaning a proportion of virtue ... equals - for example - a qintar of good deeds, and the justice of 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz equals two qintars; do you think the deeds ... in his judgment of the ummah, and his administration of the state, and his promotion of the Islamic conquests; can we know what the proportion of this virtue is?
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh: Yes, even though the virtue of companionship, let us assume it, but the truth - also - we do not know, therefore I believe that the need in such a matter is from the category of over-exertion and affectation in religion; because no ruling or creed follows from it.
The questioner: ... there was a disagreement among students of knowledge in preferringThe Shaykh : ... , so each has an argument in his hand, O Shaykh, I asked some ... .
The Shaykh: There is no benefit behind it; whether it is youThe questioner : or they areThe questioner : ... .
... ... ...
The Shaykh: In the matter there are two opinions, and Allah knows best what is correct.
... ... ...
The questioner: ... right? And in reality they did not authenticate him ... from the category of the trustworthy; so who is this man?
The Shaykh: Who is this man?
The questioner: So such a man to whom the words I mention about him apply.
The Shaykh: The one who is the extra in ... ?
The questioner: Huh?
The Shaykh: The one who is the extra in ... ?
The questioner: A man from the Tabi'un.
The Shaykh: I understood your words.
The questioner: And he is mentioned among the trustworthy worshippers.
The Shaykh: All right.
The questioner: ... said ... they authenticated him.
The Shaykh: Who ... ? Ibn Hibban ... ?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh: He authenticated him at that time, if our investigation is ... such that we did not leave room for anyone to claim that there is a trustworthy one whose trustworthiness al-Dhahabi knew, and therefore he said: They authenticated him, if we can be certain of this fact; however, there is no one who authenticated this narrator except Ibn Hibban ... .
The questioner : Difficult.
The Shaykh: Very difficult = -- please -- = if the matter is so, he will say this is from the category of what some scholars say: that the minimum of a collective is two, but what happens sometimes is that al-Hafiz al-Dhahabi is, without doubt, more memorizing than we who first: rely on books, and second: did not have the references and sources they had; as evidenced by the fact that every day new publications come out and the circle of our knowledge expands, and I give myself as an example, I said: I do not find some narrators who were authenticated by anyone other than Ibn Hibban, and it may be with him ... often, and by knowing the path ... if he - also - is in their sheikhs in authentication, it is possible that this one about whom al-Dhahabi said: They authenticated him, and he is one of these authenticators, but we did not come upon the authentication, that the minimum of a collective is two.
The questioner: Meaning if you know your opinion, you know the general rule of your methodology, sometimes some questions are accompanied by something that takes them out of this matter; like the radio, like the microphone, also ... the mu'adhdhin.
Some of the brothers are surprised that you askThe Shaykh : for his opinion and remain silent, you do not discussThe Shaykh : , so I say there is nothing wrong; meaning is he following itThe Shaykh : This.
The Shaykh: Your question remains limited.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: Meaning the question you direct to me remains limited, so if you took his answer, you were satisfied.
The questioner: Yes, that is it.
The Shaykh: Meaning you took the answer? Good, but here is the matter of the radio, this reminds me now of this radio that deafened the adhan, the truth is if he read a normal reading and the hearts became humble ... from this ... the truth is that this issue must be observed by you and you must take care of it properly, for whoever names this voice that rings ... , this removes humility, and removes the benefit from ignorance of the reading.
The questioner: Unrestricted public interests, if a person is convinced by an opinion; can this opinion or this ruling he was convinced of be expressed for the sake of this public interest?
The Shaykh: ... ... so if he is convinced that it is a Shari'ah public interest ... ... .
... ... ...
The questioner: ... which is the issue of women driving cars, now the public interest, rather the removal of harm is realized in preventing her from driving the car.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner: Especially in our countries, as for other countries, we do not prevent, meaning the public interest may be ... she drives in one place and not another.
The Shaykh: Correct.
The questioner: ... ... for the sake of bringing public interest ... .
The Shaykh : ... ... ... .
