Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : I say, praise be to Allah for all good.
The questioner : May Allah bless you, my master, Shaykh Muhammad Nasir al-Din al-Albani.
The Shaykh : He is with you.
The questioner : My master, I received a call from Algeria yesterday.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : They are inquiring about a hadith that they seem to have heard on a cassette of your presence.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So they are inquiring with us whether it is authentic or weak?
The Shaykh : What is it, if they heard it on my cassette?
The questioner : Yes, O my master.
The Shaykh : If it is weak, we will state that it is weak, and if it is authentic, we will not say that it is weak. Did they give you the text found on the cassette?
The questioner : Yes, my Shaykh, it is the meaning of the hadith that they gave me.
The Shaykh : This is a problem.
The questioner : The meaning of the hadith, but I did not hear the text. It seems they needed this, which is why they called us from there.
The Shaykh : Bring it so we can see what the meaning is that they gave you.
The questioner : That the newborn, when he is born, the adhan is called in his right ear or something like that.
The Shaykh : Yes, this is a weak hadith.
The questioner : It is a weak hadith.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And its chain of narration is weak.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : They want to inquire whether this hadith is weak in the sense of being weak, because it seems the woman wants to give birth and wants to call the adhan in her son's ear.
The Shaykh : Yesterday a woman called me from Algeria, and she was eloquent, and may Allah be pleased with her, meaning she is like what they say about women in the Levant, a sister of men, so she asked me about this hadith and I answered her.
The questioner : Did you ask me yesterday from Algeria?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : I spoke with her just yesterday.
The Shaykh : Ah, see how it is.
The questioner : Unfortunately, I did not have your phone with me, so I wanted to ease the situation for her, so we told her that, if Allah wills, the answer will come to you in a few days.
The Shaykh : In any case, may Allah reward you with good. The point is that it happened from her side first and from your side second, and may Allah reward you with good.
The questioner : May Allah bless you, my master. Are you living in North Hashemi, my master, or where?
The Shaykh : No, I am living in South Marqa, near the high school, the girls' high school.
The questioner : High school.
The Shaykh : The girls' high school, South Marqa.
The questioner : Yes, it is well known, my master.
The Shaykh : And do you know the al-Nur mosque?
The questioner : If Allah wills, I will ask about it.
The Shaykh : Yes, I am a little above it.
The questioner : Yes, O my master.
The Shaykh : You are welcome.
The questioner : Thank you, my master.
The Shaykh: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : I say, praise be to Allah for all good.
