The Shaykh : This is the last hadith in this chapter, and with it the lesson ends. This hadith was also mentioned previously, so we are only reminding you of it. It says: "And from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1028b Abu Bakr said: 'I.' Then he said: Sahih Muslim 1028b Abu Bakr said: 'I.' He said: Sahih Muslim 1028b Abu Bakr said: 'I.' Then he said: Sahih Muslim 1028b Abu Bakr said: 'I.' Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 5:221 There is a missing part here, which I have placed in the margin. So whoever has a copy should correct his copy. The missing part is after the phrase "in a man" Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 515 Without this addition, the meaning of the hadith changes completely. That is, if a man did these five things in his lifetime, it would be true that he entered Paradise. But the hadith, in the same source to which the author attributed it, includes this addition: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 515 It states: "Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah in his Sahih." This is a shortcoming of the author in tracing the hadith, because this hadith is in Sahih Muslim, yet he attributed it to Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah. In the terminology of the scholars, this is a shortcoming in the science of tracing hadiths, because if a hadith is in one of the two Sahihs, it is not permissible to attribute it to anything else except by appending it to them or to one of them. But to say "Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah" when it is also narrated by Muslim, without mentioning that, is a shortcoming in tracing. The reason is clear: it is the trust that the two Sahihs have gained among the scholars of the Ummah regarding the precision of the conditions they adhered to in extracting hadiths for their books, unlike others, including Ibn Khuzaymah, to whom the author attributed the authentic hadith. He is lenient compared to the two Shaykhs of the Sahihs, as he often narrates from some unknown narrators, which is leniency, whereas the two Shaykhs... this leniency, and their hadiths are distinguished by the highest level of authenticity. Therefore, it is not correct to not attribute a hadith to one of the two Sahihs when it is in one of them, and to attribute it to others, for this reason. In any case, the author actually has a great merit, because it appears from the folds of his book that... this book is not from a book, and that this memorization undoubtedly requires preparation and review. But whatever the case, one of us today is unable to dictate a page from his memory without making a mistake. What about him, who dictated two volumes like this volume, this being one of them, by dictation? So it is no surprise that he would slip up, forget, or make a mistake. And all the sons of Adam are prone to error, and the best of those who err are the repentant. However, his mistake is not the kind of error that requires repentance, because it is not a sin, but rather a slip of the tongue. And Allah, in any case, will reward him, Exalted is He. And we ask Him to reward us with him as well.
The professor has questions with him, and since we did not attend today, perhaps... the obstacle for him is good.
The questioner : ... weak.
The Shaykh : Yes.
There are several questions here, which we will arrange first according to their importance and second according to their lack of repetition.
Who amongst you is fasting today?
من أصبح منكم اليوم صائما ؟Who amongst you served food to the needy?
من أطعم منكم اليوم مسكينا ؟Who amongst you has today visited the sick?
من عاد منكم اليوم مريضاWho amongst you followed a funeral procession today?
من تبع منكم اليوم جنازة ؟These qualities have never come together in a man
ما اجتمعت هذه الخصال قط في رجلAbu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked, "Which of you is fasting today?" Abu Bakr said, "I am." He asked, "Which of you has visited a sick person today? "I have," Abu Bakr stated. Then he asked, "Who has attended a funeral today?" "I have," Abu Bakr said. He asked, "Who has fed a poor person today?" Abu Bakr said, "I have."
في يوم إلا دخل الجنةAbu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked, "Which of you is fasting today?" Abu Bakr said, "I am." He asked, "Which of you has visited a sick person today? "I have," Abu Bakr stated. Then he asked, "Who has attended a funeral today?" "I have," Abu Bakr said. He asked, "Who has fed a poor person today?" Abu Bakr said, "I have."
