What is the grade of the hadith: “The severity overtakes the bearers of the Qur'an because of the honor of the Qur'an in their chests”?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner :
The severity overtakes the bearers of the Qur'an because of the honor of the Qur'an in their chests الحدَّة تعتري حملة القرآن لعزة القرآن في أجوافهم
.

The Shaykh : It is not authentic.

The questioner : It is a hadith I included in “Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Da'ifah wa al-Mawdu'ah” (The Chain of Weak and Fabricated Hadiths).

The Shaykh : It is not authentic.
Yes.

The questioner : When I included the hadith in “The Chain,” I did not include its chain of narration because it has no chain, or it has...

The Shaykh : It has no basis.

The questioner : Yes, meaning it has no chain of narration.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : Okay, I found a chain for this hadith.

The Shaykh : I found a chain.

The questioner : Yes, for the Shaykh... the research on tracing the hadith at the university, when the doctor brought up the hadith, he said the Shaykh Nasser did not find a chain for this hadith, and we found a chain for it.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward him with good, and he...

The questioner : He says: The chain of the hadith is found with Abu 'Udai in “Al-Kamil” under the biography of Wahb ibn...

The Shaykh : Ibn 'Adi.

The questioner : Ibn 'Adi.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Under the biography of Wahb ibn...

The Shaykh: All right.

The questioner : He said: “Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Qursafah al-'Asqalani came to us, and my father narrated to us, and Noah ibn al-Haytham narrated to us, and then Wahb ibn Wahb narrated to us from Thawr ibn Yazid from Khalid ibn Ma'dan from Mu'adh ibn Jabal from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).” He said this is the chain of the hadith, andThe Shaykh : he did not find a chain for it, so I said, meaning, should I consult the Shaykh and see?

The Shaykh : Okay, this doctor is telling you this.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Tell the doctor: Is the chain a means or an end? You want to learn, especially since you have declared war on the doctors and on non-doctors. Yes, tell him: Is the chain a means or an end? If he is a true doctor, he will say, “No, it is a means, not an end.” So what is the end of the chain? Knowing the authenticity of the narrated text, which is the text, or the opposite, its weakness. So here, as he says, he made a correction to al-Albani regarding the chain of a hadith that he included in the weak ones and did not mention a chain for. We say, may Allah reward him with good, but did he reach the end?

The questioner : He reached it? He says the hadith is not authentic, of course, this...

The Shaykh : So what is the benefit of the correction?

The questioner : The benefit.
The student : The end, the end.

The Shaykh : Understood, but... ah.

The questioner : No, the end is that it is merely that the research into the men is to reach, in the end, the weakness of the hadith. It is not that, for him, this is what he says when he explains to us: meaning, the principle is that we do not judge the hadith immediately by saying the hadith is weak, but rather we look at its men first.
The student : ... .

The Shaykh : First, when I wrote this in “The Chain,” the book “Al-Kamil” by Ibn 'Udai was not in the world of printed books; and therefore, this is a fact that many overlook and some ignore for a purpose of their own, or Allah knows what is in their hearts. The important thing is that this correction is purely formal, and what is intended by it is that we corrected the Shaykh al-Albani. The correct correction is that al-Albani weakened a hadith, but Doctor So-and-So found a sound chain for it; this is a great gain. As for a hadith that al-Albani weakened and for which a chain was found that does not remove it from the weakening, what is the benefit of this except to say, “We are here, hey, all the knowledge... more than an hour... do you want a question? Hehehe.”
