How do you guide a beginner student of hadith in takhrij?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The questioner : How are you?
The Shaykh : I praise and thank Allah.
The questioner: If Allah wills, we want to ask approximately two questions like this.
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The questioner: May Allah reward you with good. First, what is your advice for a beginner student of hadith in takhrij, and what are the most important rules he should follow and the most important books that point to these rules?
The Shaykh: It is not possible to answer this question.
The questioner: Do you mean the time does not allow?
The Shaykh: Read the books on terminology, and do not begin with takhrij until you are saturated with the science of terminology and the study of books on the men (narrators). Do not engage in takhrij, for among the sayings is: "Whoever hastens a matter before its time is tried with its deprivation." The Muslim youth today thinks that the science of hadith is a sip of honey, whereas if that were the case, it would not have been that the Muslims spent long centuries working with all the Islamic sciences except the science of hadith.
