The Companion who takes from the Isra'iliyyat: is he to be followed in reports?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah preserve you. If a Companion is known for taking from the Isra'iliyyat, is his statement to be accepted...?
The Shaykh : His statement is accepted in what he attributes to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but in what he mentions from his own opinion, his statement is not accepted, unless there is room for opinion in the matter, in which case it is accepted as a juristic opinion from his words. However, reports are not accepted from him. Yes.
