A hadith-related benefit regarding the narration of hadith by meaning.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : I mean, like this. This verbal variation indicates that the rule of the hadith scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) is that they narrate the hadith.
The reader: By meaning.
The Shaykh : By meaning, because the narrator of the hadith from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is one, and it is highly unlikely that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say one thing one time and another thing another time. Thus, this serves as evidence that the narrators (may Allah have mercy on them) consider it permissible to narrate the hadith by meaning. And were it not for this, the hadiths would not have been preserved, nor would the read and heard hadiths have been elevated. Yes.
