What I am upon and my Companions. هي ما أنا عليه وأصحابي
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2641Da'if (Darussalam)
, so if you are reporting from this person...

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : I do not know what he said. If you are reporting from him correctly, this is misguidance because he does not give weight to the saying of the Messenger:
What I am upon and my Companions. ما أنا عليه وأصحابي
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2641Da'if (Darussalam)
and he says according to what you report.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : The responsibility is on the narrator.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : That an individual among the Salaf makes mistakes, not that the Salaf do not make mistakes. An individual from the Salaf makes mistakes, but the Salaf as a group, who are walking on the line and on a straight path, these do not make mistakes.
