Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first message in this episode is from one of the female listeners, and at the end of it, the sender, a sister from the Arab Republic of Egypt, asks a collection of questions, among which is the question: Is this hadith authentic: ?
Answer: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance.
As for the matter: The scholars have stated that the aforementioned hadith is not authentic, so it is not relied upon. However, its general meaning is acceptable. Choosing good women of known noble character for one’s lineage and descendants is established by other evidence. As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the authentic hadith:Bulugh al-Maram 8:5 It is required for a believer to choose good people in their religion, character, and reputation. This is especially true for a woman, who should be from the good women known for their piety and noble character. This is what is required. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
Choose well for your offspring, for the bloodline is a powerful force
