Discussion on the fiqh of the hadith (And report from the Children of Israel, and there is no harm in that).
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The hadith mentioned earlier Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2669Sahih (Darussalam) Please, my Muslim brother, there is no session... in the name of a person, so all the brothers' sessions.
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. His saying (peace and blessings be upon him) in the previous hadithJami` at-Tirmidhi 2669Sahih (Darussalam) this does not mean that the Muslim should adopt it as a methodology in his scholarly life, relying on what is known, please speak here.
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Adopting this does not mean that the Muslim should adopt as a methodology in his scholarly life the reliance on what is known among Muslims as Isra'iliyyat (narrations from the People of the Book). This is not the case. The evidence is what Imam Ahmad and others narrated from Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw 'Umar ibn al-Khattab one day reading from a paper in his hand, so he asked him about it. He said, "It is a paper written for me by a man from the Jews." Then he said
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah. Accordingly, it is not permissible for the Muslim to make his habit the reliance on Isra'iliyyat (narrations from the People of the Book) and to prioritize them over authentic hadith narrations, because that will lead him to distorting the texts of the Shari'ah with weak narrations that are not established from what is narrated from the Children of Israel. This is the answer to what you asked.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And you must be building something else on that question and answer, so bring it forward.

O son of al-Khattab, are you going to be like the Jews and the Christians who were like the one who was like them? By Him in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Musa were alive, he would have had no choice but to follow me
يا ابن الخطاب أمتهوكون أنتم كما تهوكت اليهود والنصارى؟! والذي نفس محمد بيده لو كان موسى حيا ما وسعه إلا اتباعيThe questioner : Peace be upon you.
