The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, this hadith is not authentic, my brother. The believer, he was told: the believer does such and such, and does such and such, but he does not commit zina. This one does not... does such and such? He commits zina.
Eid Abbasi : Does he drink intoxicants? Yes.
The Shaykh : Each one individually. As for “Does he commit zina?” he said: “No.” “Does he lie?” he said:. This hadith has a weak chain of narration. Even if it were authentic in terms of meaning, it would be interpreted—also—the believer means the complete one. So we do not need to repeat any of the previous research. We have an authentic hadith; he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Mishkat al-Masabih 35Hasan (Zubair `Aliza'i). How do we say now? Mishkat al-Masabih 35Hasan (Zubair `Aliza'i) Do we declare him a disbeliever? No. What would be the meaning of the hadith? Not a complete religion. And the one who does not have trustworthiness, he said: Mishkat al-Masabih 35Hasan (Zubair `Aliza'i); meaning: not a complete faith; because faith has degrees, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said; therefore, based on these guidelines and rules, the texts that are difficult for some people must be interpreted.
And this is sufficient, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
The Shaykh :
The believer does not
