Is what Abdullah al-Harari claimed regarding the abrogation of the hadith of the slave girl correct?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We heard that Abdullah al-Harari abrogated the hadith of the slave girl from Sahih Muslim?
The Shaykh : There is something strange about this question, my brother. We conduct ourselves with the manners of the Qur'an. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:8]. This Abdullah al-Habashi is one of the *mu'attilah* (those who deny the divine attributes), but what does the question mean? Abrogating this hadith? What does this mean? No person can abrogate a hadith, so what does the question mean?
Abu Layla : Abu Layla: Our Shaykh, in a new edition found in Lebanon, printed by al-Harari himself, is this what he placed regarding the hadith of the slave girl?
The Shaykh : But it is not said that he abrogated the hadith.
The Shaykh : There is something strange about this question, my brother. We conduct ourselves with the manners of the Qur'an. Allah the Exalted said:
and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness
ولا يجرمنكم شنئان قوم على ألا تعدلوا اعدلوا هو أقرب للتقوىAbu Layla : Abu Layla: Our Shaykh, in a new edition found in Lebanon, printed by al-Harari himself, is this what he placed regarding the hadith of the slave girl?
The Shaykh : But it is not said that he abrogated the hadith.
