Question:
We ask for clarification on the authenticity of these hadiths: “Religion is good conduct,” “Choose well for your children, for the bloodline is contagious,” and “The believer is one who is sociable, and there is no good in one who is not sociable and does not make others sociable”?
Answer:
It is not a hadith; it is merely the words of people. The hadith is: As for “Religion is good conduct,” it is not among the hadiths.
As for the hadith “Choose well for your children,” it is not authentic; rather, it is among the weak hadiths that are not relied upon. However, its meaning is correct. The meaning is correct that a person should choose a suitable spouse who is good, known for religion, goodness, and noble morals.
As for “The believer is one who is sociable and does not make others sociable,” I do not know its authenticity, I do not know the state of its chain, and I do not know its status. It will be reviewed, if Allah wills, and its status will be clarified in the coming Friday session, if Allah wills.
