Are all the hadiths in Tafsir al-Jalalayn authentic?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A message was received by the program from one of our brother listeners from the Arab Republic of Egypt, named 'Umar Ghannam Ibrahim. Our brother 'Umar has three questions. In one of his questions, he asks about Tafsir al-Jalalayn. He says: This tafsir contains many hadiths, and the author only says, "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said," but he does not cite the hadiths. So, are all the hadiths mentioned in Tafsir al-Jalalayn from the authentic hadiths?
Answer:
Tafsir al-Jalalayn is a useful, concise, and beneficial tafsir, but it contains weak hadiths, and it includes figurative interpretation of some of the attributes. One should be cautious of this and not rely on it in these matters. A student of knowledge should review what is in it and ask the scholars about what is difficult for him, so that he does not fall into error; because al-Suyuti (may Allah have mercy on him) was not a specialist in distinguishing between authentic and defective hadiths. He has his well-known books, al-Jami' al-Saghir and al-Jami' al-Kabir, which contain both weak and authentic hadiths.
So, Tafsir al-Jalalayn is shared between him and al-Mahalli. It contains weak hadiths, and it contains things that contradict the correct creed. A believer who reads it should not rely on it, but rather should review the words of the scholars from the people of the Sunnah and the community regarding what is difficult for him in terms of creed, and review the words of the hadith masters regarding the weak hadiths he sees, meaning the hadiths about which he is unaware, such as Takhrij al-Habir by al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar, such as Nasb al-Ra'yah by al-Zayla'i, and other books that clarify the authentic from the weak. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
