The Shaykh discusses the error of one who made a correction to him regarding a hadith issue in the attribution and tracing of a hadith, which is the hadith of a man from the Ansar, in which
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: The hadith was narrated by Abu Dawud, and al-Bayhaqi from the route of such-and-such from a man from the Ansar: Mishkat al-Masabih 5942 , and its chain is valid as al-Hafiz said in *al-Talkhis*, and he attributed it to Ahmad as well, starting with it, he attributed it to Ahmad starting with it
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: And the author followed him, and all of that is not good, for the hadith in its full length is with Ahmad without the story of the grave and his saying: , meaning the story mentioned here contains two stories: the story of the deceased and the command to widen the grave, and the story of the woman inviting to food on a sheep as if this sheep was stolen
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: Okay, so who did I attribute it to? To Abu Dawud and al-Bayhaqi, and I said: This chain is valid as al-Hafiz said in *al-Talkhis*, and he attributed it to Ahmad as well, starting with it, meaning he said: "Ahmad and Abu Dawud narrated it"
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: So I objected and said: "All of that is not good, for the hadith in its full length is with Ahmad, part such-and-such, without the story of the grave" .
The questioner: That is, at this location and this place.
The Shaykh: Yes, so now the correction following this brother should be said: , Yes.
The questioner : Yes, yes, yes.
The Shaykh: It should be said: And this is what I will write now, but Ahmad narrated the story of the funeral in another place.
The questioner: Yes, this is what occurred to me, my Shaykh, when I first read the research, that their correction to you is not on the same page so that they say: that they found it, yes.
The Shaykh: Is it a final fatwa?
The questioner: Following the migration from Palestine.
The Shaykh: Is it you who said about travel?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: Yes, what does the case have to do with travel?
The questioner: I mean, I want to speak because of this case, and now I will be on a trip, there is no phone.
The Shaykh: Is it from inheritance, meaning do you know it, and from the rulings of travel?
The questioner : It is this.
The questioner: Do you want to ask? Ask after 'Isha' or do not make up invalid excuses, may Allah guide you.
We went out with God's messenger to a funeral, and I saw him at the grave giving this instruction to the grave-digger, "Make it wide where the feet go and wide where the head goes." When he came back, he was met by one who conveyed an invitation from the widow, and he accepted it and we went along with him. Food was brought, and when he put in his hand the people did the same, and they ate. We noticed that God's messenger was moving a morsel round in his mouth. He then said, "I find the flesh of a sheep which has been taken without its owners' permission." The woman sent a message to say, "Messenger of God, I sent to an-Naqi (a place where sheep were sold) to have a sheep bought for me, but there were none, so I sent to a neighbour of mine who had bought a sheep asking him to send it to me for the price he had paid, but he could not be found. I therefore sent to his wife and she sent it to me." God's messenger then said, "Give this food to the prisoners."
خرجنا مع رسول الله في جنازة ، فرأيت الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم وهو على القبر يوصي الحافر : أوسع من قبل رجليه ، أوسع من قبل رأسه ، فلما رجع استقبله داع امرأة ، فجاء فجيء بالطعام فوضع يده ثم وضع القوم فأكلوا فنظر آباؤنا ورسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يلوك لقمة في فمه ، ثم قال : أجد لحم شاة أخذت بغير إذن أهلها ، فأرسلت المرأة : يا رسول الله إني أرسلت إلى البقيع يشترى لي شاة فلم أجد ، فأرسلت إلى امرأتي فأرسلت إلي بها ، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : أطعميه الأسارىThe questioner : Yes.
