The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The questioner: O Shaykh, I would like to ask you about the hadith of Salman al-Farisi regarding the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)
The lawful is what Allah made lawful in His Book, the unlawful is what Allah made unlawful in his Book, and what He was silent about; then it is among that for which He has pardoned. الحلال ما أحلَّ الله في كتابه ، والحرام ما حرَّمَ الله في كتابه ، وما سكت عنه فهو ممَّا عفا عنه
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1726Hasan (Darussalam)
Your Eminence, in “Sahih al-Tirmidhi” and “Sahih Ibn Majah,” you graded the hadith as hasan, and in “Ghayat al-Maram” you mentioned its weakness regarding the narration of Salman.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner: What is your opinion, O Shaykh, about the hadith?

The Shaykh: My opinion is that it is hasan li ghayrihi (good due to supporting evidence).

The questioner: And what is the supporting evidence, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh: The corroborating narrations that support its meaning.

The questioner: Such as the narration of Abu al-Darda.

The Shaykh: I do not remember the details right now; the summary is sufficient for you at this time, which is for questions only, not for research and discussion.

The questioner: Yes, yes, very well, O Shaykh, a second question, a fiqh question.

The Shaykh: Go ahead.
