You are absolutely right my beloved sheikh. Extremism is not a good thing. Daeef hadees can be used for Fazail. This rule is proven by great IMAMS, MUHADDIS, the great scholars of hadees like imam An nabvi rh., Hafiz ibne Hajar asqalani rh. Ect.

The problem is that it's so risky. We are potentially putting statements in the mouth of the Prophet without him actually saying it.

It's only risky if you are using it for important matters pertaining to Aqeedah, Hadd law and Halaal and Haraam. However for the encouragement of good actions and virtuous deeds then it is absolutely permissable as long as it is not so strange (fabricated).

When these people say “ most of the Islamic scholars agree” , they are just expressing their own opinion and preference. They sound more like the politicians when they say “ people wants”....it always means what they want. who are you to guarantee its 100% authenticity. You want to believe “sahih” but not believe other 21 books from Bukhari? How can you trust when 90% of his books can not be believed? You just want to maintain your power and hold to interpret Hadith as you want.

Islam base on truth, if its not true don't say it, later generations will get more confusing as we are now. How can it benefit us if it was made up. If there was only 10 hadith that is really authentic by any means it would be sufficient. All praise is due to Allah alone and Allah knows best.

You didn’t understand the video. Daeef Hadith are not “made up.” Those are fabricated Hadith. Daeef Hadith means there is a chance the prophet said it.

Huge respect for Dr. Yasir Qadhi. But to me Daeef Hadiths should not be used for anything. Bcz most of the "Biddaah" is derived from Daeef Hadiths. Occasions like Shab e Baraah, etc have been authenticated using Daeef Hadiths.

Amongst them is the narration of Sayyiduna Mu’ad ibn Jabal (radiallahuánhu) that Rasulullah (sallallahuálaihu wasallam) said, ‘Allah Ta’ala turns to his entire creation on the fifteenth night of Sha’ban and forgives all of them except one who ascribes partners to Him and one who harbors enmity in his heart.’ (This hadith has been recorded by Imam Tabrani in his Mu’jam al-Awsat hadith 6776 and mu’jam al-Kabir vol.20 pg.108-109) Imam Ibn Hibban (rahimahullah) has classified this narration as sahih (authentic) and has included it in his book - Al-Sahih. (Sahih ibn Hibban vol.12 pg.482; Hadith5665). Hafiz Al-Haythami (rahimahullah) has mentioned that all the narrators of this hadith are reliable. (Majma’ al-Zawa’id vol.8 pg.65) Besides this narration classified as sahih by Imam Ibn Hibban (RA), there is another classified as sound by Hafiz al-Mundhiri (RA) in his Al-Targhib (vol.3 pg.459). This narration is of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (radiallahuánhu) and is recorded by Imam Bazzar (RA) in his Musnad. In fact, Hafiz Ibn Hajar (RA) has also classified one of its chains as hasan (sound). (al-Amal al-mutlaqah pgs.119-120) Besides the above two, there are many other Sahaba (radiallahuánhum) that narrated hadiths regarding the merit of this night. 3) Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (radiallahuánhu) (Musnad al-Bazzar hadith: 3551) 4) Sayyiduna Abu Tha’laba (radiallahuánhu) (Shu’ al-Iman) 5) Sayyiduna Awf ibn Malik (radiallahuánhu) (Musnad al-Bazzar) 6) Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘As (radiallahuánhu) (Musnad Ahmad hadith 6642) 7) Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash’ari (radiallahuánhu) (Ibn Majah hadith 1390; Shu’b al-Iman hadith 3552) 8) Sayyiduna ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib (radiallahuánhu) (Ibn Majah hadith: 1388; Shu’b al-Iman hadith: 3542) 9) Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (radiallahuánhu) 10) Sayyiduna ‘Uthman ibn Abil-‘As (radiallahuánhu) (Shu’b al-Iman hadith 3555) 11) Sayyidatuna ‘Aysha bint Abi Bakr (radiallahuánhu) (Shu’b al-Iman) 12) Kathir Ibn Murrah (radiallahuánhu) (Shu’b al-Iman hadith: 3550) (see Ajwibat al-Mardiyya vol.1 pgs.325-332) The collective strength of these narrations cannot be refuted. The general virtue of this night has been accepted by many great ‘Ulama of the past. From amongst the many great scholars who have attested to the virtue of this night are: Khalifa ‘Umar ibn ‘Abdul Aziz, Imam Shafi’i, Imam Awza’i, ‘Atta ibn Yassar, Imam al-Majd ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali and Hafiz Zaynuddeen al-‘Iraqi (Rahmatullahi alayhim) - refer Lataif al-Ma’arif of Hafiz Ibn Rajab pgs.263-264 and Fayd al-Qadir vol.2 pg.317 In fact, Hafiz Ibn Taymiyyah has said, ‘As for the middle night of Sha’ban, there are various narrations that have been narrated regarding it’s significance and it has been reported from a group of the Salaf (predecessors) that they performed salat in it individually, hence, such a deed cannot be disputed.’ (Majmu’ al-Fatawa ibn Taymiyyah vol.23 pg.132) Imam ‘Ata ibn Yasar (rahimahullah) -the great Tabi’i- said: “After Laylat al-Qadr, there is no other night in the year that is more vitreous than the middle (15th) night of Sha’ban” (Lataif al-Ma’arif, pg.197)

THE QUESTION : Who decides the gradings of Hadith? Fortunately, the decision of authenticity is from Allah through the Prophet then through the Companions and Righteous predecessors. How so? Allah has promised to protect ISLAMIC purity, and since Hadith is a source of Islamic fundamentals as second to the Quran, then HIS protection of them from evil people. In Short, anything that has direct impact on the face of the Deen is guarded by Allah from corruption and all the people connected to it's delivery to the slaves of Allah are preserved on goodness against evil so that they will be true and pure to their service in building ISLAMIC sciences. viz the promise of protections : The Quran's protection Q41:42,Q15:9, the Hadith's protection Q63:3, The Sohaabah's and all the righteous earlier connected to delivery of sciences' protection Q9:99. ------------------------------- Thus, Allah from His way of protecting the Deen (protecting the Prophet's words) made the pious companions narrate it with purity, then some evil people(NOT SOHAABAH) started placing lies on Prophet. Then Allah raised up sets of righteous predecessors to stand under HIS guardian to build Sciences of Hadith To distinguish between truth and Falsehood. This Science is A SINGLE SOURCE AND VOICE. Alhamdulillah. Which are: 'Uluumul Hadith(Science of Hadith), Mustalahal Hadith(Terminologies/Fundamentals of Hadith), 'Ilmu rijal(Knowledge of narrators of Hadith), Aljarh wa ta'adiil(Profiling narrators into their acceptability or unnacceptability) and so on in the Science. The science was ERECTED UNANIMOUSLY as one general Ummah voice by the great Scholars from the Student of the Companions who were very there at the first occurrence of some people putting lies onto the Prophet. PLEASE NOTE THAT 1) IT'S NOT THE ARAB'S WAY TO DOCUMENT BUT THEIR WAY WAS MEMORIZATION FOR THAT'S A GIFT ALLAH ENDOWED THEM WITH DUE TO THEIR UNLETTERED STATUS. SO, the Hadith was also committed into writings when these Ftnahs of some liars started and thus the Dignifying Science. 2) Islamic knowledge is passed(personally handed off) from one generation to the other as Inheritance -PROPHET >SOHAABAH >TABIIN >ATBAU TABIIN> THEIR STUDENTS>etc unlike when it was made into writing and books that some problems start because some won't receive knowledge from the chain in inheritance from the Ahlul'ilm(People of the knowledge) but just stay at a place reading books and considering themselves also as scholars without Chained Certification. I say a single voice of Foundation, So If anyone has a contrast to Hadith then is either i) the person has not studied the Science up to receiving Ijaazah(chained certification on the knowledge of the Science - a chain leading to the predecessors) or ii) HE IS CONFUSED, PRETENDS THE KNOWLEDGE etc. Each of these branch of the Science is where one will get to know the deepness of what Hadith really is. AND IT IS NOT SOMETHING BASICALLY CONNECTED TO MADHAB(SCHOOL OF THOUGHT), though later on, the of Scholars of the Four Schools interprets in perfect relationship to time and environment which caused some few differences in opinion. This differences are but what is called far'u(secondary or auxiliary) development while the asl(origin, source) where they took from is still intact and solid as a single voice. So, why not classification just AUTHENTIC and NON AUTHENTIC i.e why not just Black or White? Why different levels of authenticity? That is because from studying the narrators, EVERY SINGLE NARRATOR were graded based on their Personality, piety, knowledge, memory retainment capability, precision etc So from the Science, In level of authority the narrator that is known for perfect pure piety but with a faint memory maybe due to old-age or thereabout will not be classified as Sahiih but Hassan due to this little but significant flaw. THIS IS HOW PAINSTAKING AND PRECISE THE ANALYSIS OF NARRATORS ARE which in turn rubs off on the hadith narrated. And Allah knows best.

Ukasha Beltran Very sincere advice , strongly hold Quran and Authantic Hadith , r more than enough to go to jannah. In sh Allah. And keep asking for right path to follow . This is the dua(prayer) never unanswered . I deeply appreciate and honor Yasir qadhi for his study and he on his scholarly level can differentiate specifically which Hadith is daeef and which one is fabricated . For ordinary people there is element of risk of innovation. Just stay on safe side. May Allah swt protect you and All Muslim ummah and guide others not on right path so far. Aameen

Further clarification for the description box: Grade D: unintentional mistake/error Grade F: Fabricated; intentional lie

[@adibhamdani]

Authenticity of a Hadith can be categorised into five grades: A. Sahih (accepted) B. Hasan (accepted, with lower quality of narrator) C. Dhaif (We are certain the Prophet did not say it e.g. missing link) D. Dhaif Jiddan (Erroneous, but not fabricated) F. Munkar (Fabricated, a lie in the name of the Prophet). D&F should be thrown out of the window. A&B shall be accepted. However, for C (Dhaif), we will NOT use it for Halal&Haram, deriving Aqeedah, but we may use for Fadhail, Nafiil. This is the default stance of the scholars up to the pre-modern era.

Ok we understand you don't use daef hadith for fiqh and for aqeedah, halal or haram, and only for fazail that are already confirmed by other parts of the sunnah, but what about another margin of several incidents, such as the hadith of revelation where when there was an addition my Al zuhri saying the prophet pbuh went on a mountain about to commit suicide and jibrael came and told him not to do it, the chain is disconnected so it is classed as daef. What about this category of matn which is highly problematic, so we can see why albani held this position as can open up a big can of worms and end up insulting the prophet pbuh, and I'm sure your aware that even ibn hajar Al asqalani has said it was added my mistake. By saying it ok to use in these circumstances and not mentioning the others opens the doors for every group to start introducing shubuhaat.

[@EnterJannah]

All praises for Allah only and may Allah(Most Loving) bless and grant peace to our prophet(sallallahu alayhi wasallam). My question is if you practice weak Hadiths will be rewarded for it? e.g if a hadith says if you do this you will be rewarded with this and that.

[@jpzadran4774]

Before people with no knowledge will try to answer your question: Please try to find some of the local mosques in your area. I am sure you will find some, since there are masaajid almost everywhere. Then, speak to the imams of the masaajid, not only with one imam, but with several others, and you will find the answer to almost every question you have. Shaysk Yaasir Qaadhi doesn't react to KZbin comments, and you should connect with local masaajid anyway.

[@lolyou6676]

rayen hanzouli I’m a brother. I don’t know how knowledgeable you are in the Quran but my question to you is did God authorise the writing of Hadiths? Obey God and obey the prophet I understand but where did the Quran instruct the companions to write Hadiths (actions) of the prophet and make them a religious guidance? Because i can’t find anything in the Quran about writing Hadiths and following them as religious guidance? We already have the Quran as religious guidance, why do we need two books and two religious guidances from two sources, isn’t the Quran the only source of guidance? Isn’t Allah the only one God we should follow? And only Allah’s book should be followed as religious guidance? That’s what I’ve read in the Quran, how is there two sets of laws? There should be one book and one law/guidance from Allah only which is found in the Quran. How are we following other books written by none prophet’s that was not even authorised by God? I know this is a complicated issue and i don’t expect you to answer. This topic is bothering me because nobody knows the answers to this complicated issue. I’m a Quran alone believer, and I can’t understand Hadith logic because they are not authorised by God.

[@lolyou6676]

rayen hanzouli You pray 5 times a day? Do you practice what you recite daily? Or do you just recite the Quran in your prayer because you have been instructed to by Hadiths? But instead you follow Hadiths as guidance? I don’t understand that logic of following God guidance. If you recite in your prayer the Quran 5 times a day you should be at least practicing what your reciting or do you recite the Hadiths in your prayer? I can’t understand how you do it you pray using the Quran but follow Hadiths as guidance and you don’t recite Hadiths in your prayer? But you say Hadiths are the same as the Quran? I totally can’t understand how Hadiths are the same as the Quran.

@@mohammadfarooq2858 I know nothing, but Alhamdulillah I can read and reason, there's just no need to use weak/fabricated or false hadith! Peace to you brother, have a good day. Shaykh Al-Albani, " ... this is because I hold that the authentic ahadith are sufficient, leaving no need for anything weak, for the latter does not amount to anything except dhann (conjecture, suspicion), and incorrect conjecture at that; as the Exalted says, ' ... and conjecture is of no use against the truth.' " Imam Muslim states in the introduction to his Sahih, under the chapter heading, "The weak ahadith are to be discarded and only authentic ahadith are to be narrated" Imam Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali[2] said, " ... and it is clear from what Muslim mentions in the introduction to his book, that it is necessary that the ahadith to do with targhib wa't-tarhib (encouragement and discouragement) are not narrated except from those that ahkam (rules and regulations) are narrated [meaning the authentic ahadith]."

[@mohammadfarooq2858]

Bobby Firmino my beloved brother, it seems like you can read but I’m not sure about the reason part. You obviously did not watch the video because Sheikh Yasir mentions this exact point. Imam Bukhari and Muslim both wrote the sahih which they said was a book for only sahih hadith but it does not mean that they discarded daeef hadith and didn’t accept them. Imam Bukhari wrote many books in which he used daeef hadith, Adab al Mufrad being one of many in which he encourages good action using daeef hadith. Now please tell me if anyone is greater in the science of hadith than Imam Bukhari ? Please don’t say Sheikh Albani (May Allah have mercy on all these great scholars)

[@i.s.892]

@@mohammadfarooq2858 The reason part is why use weak/fabricated hadith when the Quran and authentic narrations are sufficient? Using these hadith for any reason opens the door to legitimise them and puts them into practise, in my humble opinion.

Bobby Firmino no problem akhi, you are entitled to that opinion, but be careful when you use words like utter nonsense when scholars like Imam Ahmad, Imam Nawawi, Imam Muslim, Imam Bukhari, Ibn Hajar al Asqalani (May Allah have mercy on them all) and many other huge names held the opposite opinion to you...
