The Shaykh’s warning about the necessity of cautioning against weak and fabricated hadiths.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
'Ayd 'Abassi: Another negative matter that the Salafis warn against and draw attention to is those weak and fabricated hadiths that served as the basis for many religious innovations. It has become common among people to cite and mention these hadiths; preachers, teachers, writers, and authors—you find books overflowing with attributing statements to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is innocent of these statements. They do not hesitate, even though the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) frequently warned about this, cautioned against it, and explained its severity, stating that lying about him is not like lying about Sahih al-Bukhari 1291. They use the hadith attributed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to make permissible what is not valid; they use it to make the forbidden permissible and to establish rulings, and... This is also an important matter upon which the Salafi call is built, clarifying what is authentic in the hadith and what is not. This is an introduction in which I have been lengthy, and I feel... The continuation does not fit in the current setting, which is the Salafi’s stance toward other calls. Perhaps that will be in another stance and another gathering, if Allah wills. And our final prayer is that all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
Another questioner: May Allah reward you with good.
'Ayd 'Abassi: And you.
Ascribing false things to me is not like ascribing false things to anyone else
إن كذبا علي ليس ككذب على أحدكمAnother questioner: May Allah reward you with good.
'Ayd 'Abassi: And you.
