Is meeting a condition for accepting a muna'an hadith, or is contemporaneity sufficient?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, regarding the muna'an narrator, the one who is muna'an is trustworthy. Is the relied-upon position the statement of Imam al-Bukhari and Ibn al-Madini, or is the relied-upon position that of the others, which is mere contemporaneity?
The Shaykh : No, you do not speak of the muna'an in this absolute manner.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Rather, it is with the condition of contemporaneity.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : This is the point of disagreement; that is, al-Bukhari requires meeting.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Muslim is satisfied with contemporaneity, so the statement of Imam Muslim is the stronger position.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Oh God.
The Shaykh : No, you do not speak of the muna'an in this absolute manner.
