The Shaykh Al-Albani’s remarks on a hadith that he will move from the weak to the authentic.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The student : ... principles. You did not speak about this issue, which is exactly what we mentioned, but his words seem to imply something, and Allah knows best. Let me read you something from it.
The Shaykh : Show it to me, for this phrase has corroborating narrations.
The student : What Allah willed, it is beautiful.
The Shaykh : And I have decided to move it to the authentic hadiths of Ibn Majah.
The student: Okay, good.
The Shaykh : Perhaps you should put the note in the original text you have, which is the weak hadiths of Ibn Majah, so that you do not have to describe it as weak.
The student : Okay, may Allah reward you, Shaykh. No problem, tell me the number, or is it not in front of you right now?
The Shaykh : I will say it very clearly: the third chapter of the Book of Supplications.
The student : Yes, the third chapter of the Book of Supplications.
The Shaykh : And there is no hadith there about 'Umar other than this one, and secondly, there is no seeking refuge from the fitnah of the chest in Ibn Majah’s Sunan except in this strange hadith.
The student: Allahu Akbar.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : So this hadith is in the weak collection, and you will move it to the authentic collection.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : Ah, okay, may Allah reward you, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Okay, a question comes to mind here.
The student : Please, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Did you start with the authentic and weak together, or how did you do it?
The student : Shaykh, my arrangement is that I know the entire book.
The Shaykh : I know the entire book.
The student : Which is the authentic and the weak, and then you know, the computer work is easy: separating the authentic from the weak.
The Shaykh : Ah, good, so you are describing the original text.
The student : Describing the original text, yes, perfect, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you.
The student : I take all your notes into consideration.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The student : May Allah preserve you, O my professor.
The Shaykh: Peace be upon you.
The student : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The Shaykh : Show it to me, for this phrase has corroborating narrations.
