We move on to other questions through a message from brother A.J. from the Arab Republic of Egypt. Our brother asks this question and says:
Shaykh al-Albani mentions prophetic hadiths in some of his books and says: authentic.
He attributes them to his series of authentic narrations, and sometimes he says: the hadith is weak, and attributes it to his series of weak narrations.
He does not attribute the hadiths to their original sources like Bukhari and Muslim.
And the authors of the Sunan, Musnads, and Ma'ajim. Does this align with scientific amana, neglecting to mention the predecessors of this umma among the scholars of hadith?
Who were the reason the hadith reached us, as well as sending their statements about the hadith. I hope you can guide us regarding this.
May Allah reward you with goodness. Shaykh Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani is one of our distinguished brothers, known for uprightness and sound belief.
And for his biography and activity in collecting hadith and clarifying what is authentic from what is weak, he is appreciated and well-known to us.
He has blessed efforts and great works in this, and we ask Allah to grant him more success along with sincerity in intention and action, but like other scholars, he is not infallible.
He may make some mistakes, some errors in authenticating or weakening narrations, and in opinions, but he is thanked for his striving and his good intentions, and if.
He makes a mistake, it is necessary for the scholars to point it out and write to him, so that there is cooperation in righteousness and taqwa.
Acting upon His, the Exalted's, saying: Cooperate in righteousness and taqwa. This is how the scholars were in the past and present, they cooperate and advise one another, and do not insult one another.
He does not belittle him, criticize him, or backbite him, but rather advises him, helps him towards good, and alerts him if he makes a mistake. And Shaykh al-Albani.
It is not always about attribution, but he attributes the hadiths to their sources, and sometimes he summarizes in some books.
Attribution to the authentic or the weak, and you can refer to the authentic collection and find the attribution to al-Bukhari, to Muslim, to Abu Dawud, to al-Nasa'i, to al-Tirmidhi.
To others as well, and you find the discussion about the narrators and the chains of transmission.
With authentication and weakening, and quoting the words of the scholars about that. It is not as the questioner mentioned, but Shaykh al-Albani—we have read his books and seen his method.
He points out what is in them according to his own judgment, but if he summarizes sometimes.
He said: I mentioned it as authentic, and I mentioned it as weak, and I mentioned it as authentic in the collection.
Or with "authentic such-and-such" or "weak such-and-such," meaning he is guiding you now to go back to that so you can find what you are looking for in the research and the discussion about the chain of narration. This is how he works, this is his method.
It is obligatory for you, questioner, to have taqwa of Allah and to be fair to your family. May Allah grant everyone success.
May Allah reward you with good. So, the honorable Sheikh Abdul Aziz sees that if Sheikh Al-Albani is pointed out an error in his books, he will correct it.
If it becomes clear to him, he corrects it. If it becomes clear to him that the one who pointed it out was right and he was wrong, he corrects it.
The listener 'Ayn Fa' Ghain sent a question and says: What is your opinion, your eminence, about.?
In relying on what Al-Albani has authenticated.
Sheikh Muhammad Nasir Al-Albani, Nasiruddin Al-Albani, is among the best of people.
And among the scholars known for uprightness, good creed, and diligence in authenticating narrations and clarifying their status.
He is a reference in this field.
But he is not infallible; he may make mistakes.
Authenticating or weakening some narrations, but this is the case with other scholars as well; every scholar is like this.
Some mistakes come from the earlier and later generations. It is obligatory for the student of knowledge to look into what.
Has been authenticated and deemed good by those who are people of knowledge, who are skilled in this field and know.
The hadith, and to look into its chains and its narrators. If its authenticity becomes clear to him, as the shaykh said, all praise is due to Allah. Otherwise, he relies on what appears to him from.
The evidence that the scholars have followed in this area, because the scholars have established rules for authenticating and weakening hadith. As for.
The people of knowledge, he too is a reference in authenticating and weakening, because he is among the scholars and among the people of this field.
He has studied for this long period, for many years. We ask Allah to grant him success and a good end. Yes.
