The hadith that beef is a disease: its authenticity and its meaning?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
And in his statement as well: "I do not pray," there is evidence for arguing from the necessary implication of a thing, and its aspect is:
The reader: A necessary implication of menstruation is leaving off the prayer.
The Shaykh : That a necessary implication of the presence of menstruation is leaving off the prayer.
Yes
The questioner : Some of the hadith scholars authenticated a hadith that says: So how do you link it with the hadith of A'ishah?
The Shaykh : O Zaki, the Qur'an came down from Allah, you know, and the Ummah transmitted it, generation after generation, and individual after individual, and in the Qur'an there is explicit text that cattle are lawful, their meat, is that not so?
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh : Well, if a hadith comes to us indicating that its meat is a disease, we say this hadith is false and is struck against the face of its narrator. You know.
This is never authentic from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in any way, and how can it be authentic from the Messenger when Allah has made it lawful? And how would Allah make lawful for His servants that which is a disease? When it was said to the Messenger that we use wine as medicine, he said, "It is a disease and not a medicine." So a disease is not used as a medicine, let alone being eaten. Therefore, it is obligatory for students of knowledge to pay attention to this matter, and not to be deceived by the apparent chain of narration. If the text is denounced, it is denounced, even if it was narrated by whoever narrated it.
And error occurs for every person, so for us to say that its meat is a disease, and this necessitates that it be forbidden, while Allah has made it lawful in His Book, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ate it, and the Companions ate it, or the Messenger approved of them eating it.
