Weak Hadith Compilation

**ZeeshanParvez** · 06-13-2018

This thread is meant to collect weak ahadiith which are widespread among people. The section will point out the scholars who graded the hadith to be weak.

Note a weak hadith does not mean that it is a false hadith. It means that there is a high possibility of an error in it.

The Rightly Guided Caliphs narrated very few hadith out of fear of attributing something to the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) which he had not said.

عرَف الصحابة منزلة السُّنَّة

The Companions recognized the rank of the Sunnah

واحتاطوا في رواية الحديث عن النبي -صلى الله عليه وسلم- خشية الوقوع في الخطأ

And they were careful in narrating hadith from the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) because they feared making mistakes.

وكان سيدنا عمر شديد الإنكار على مَن أكثر الرواية وكان يأمر بأن يُقِلوا من الرواية

Umar used to severely criticize those who narrated too many narrations and would command them to narrate few narrations

وقد كان المنهج العام عند الصحابة هو: التشدد في رواية الحديث

And the manhaj of the masses of the Companions was severe strictness in regards to narrating hadith.

والتزم جمهور الصحابة في الخلافة الراشدة منهج عمر بن الخطاب -رضي الله عنه- خشية أن يقعوا في الخطأ

And the majority of the Companions adhered to the manhaj of Umar (Allaah is pleased with him), during the khilaafah al-raashidah, fearing that they would fall into (making) mistakes (if they narrated too many hadith)

This was the way of the Companions (may Allaah be pleased with them) who spent their lives with the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam).

There is no doubt that there were those Companions (may Allaah be pleased with them) who narrated a lot of hadith. However, they were always very careful.

Today, we have gone so far of the path that we narrate everything we hear and do not even take 1 minute to explain the opinions of the scholars on a given hadith.

We live dangerous lives.

Those who can read Arabic should invest the time to read the following book

منهاج المحدثين في القرن الأول الهجري وحتى عصرنا الحاضر

It is important to inform your audience when you narrate a weak hadith. The rank and sanctity of the Messenger of Allaah (Sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) is unlike any other.

The best of creation after the Prophets (peace be upon them all) were warned that if they raise their voice over his (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) all their deeds would go to waste.

O you who have believed, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet or be loud to him in speech like the loudness of some of you to others, lest your deeds become worthless while you perceive not.

[Qur'aan 49:2]

They were not allowed to call out to him (sallallaahu alayi wa sallam) as they did to one another.

Do not make [your] calling of the Messenger among yourselves as the call of one of you to another. Already Allah knows those of you who slip away, concealed by others. So let those beware who dissent from the Prophet's order, lest fitnah strike them or a painful punishment.

[Qur'aan 24:63]

Lying on him (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) is not like lying on anyone else.

Narrated al-Mughira:

I heard the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) saying, "Ascribing false things to me is not like ascribing false things to anyone else. Whosoever tells a lie against me intentionally then surely let him occupy his seat in Hell-Fire." I heard the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) saying, "The deceased who is wailed over is tortured for that wailing."

[Sahih al-Bukhaari]

Imaam Muslim said,

"It Is Sinful To Report Something From A Weak Narrator Without Making Its Weakness Clear: He says in the introduction of his ‘saheeh’: "But they made it incumbent upon themselves to reveal the weaknesses of hadeeth narrators and they gave fatwaa according to that – because of the great danger involved in it, since the narrations about matters of Deen convey allowance (Tahleel) and Prohibition (Tahreem), or orders and things which are forbidden, or encouragement and warning (targheeb wa tarheeb), so if the narrator is not truthful and trustworthy – then someone who narrates from him, knowing that, and does not make his weakness clear to others who do not know him, then he is sinful through that action, deceiving the common Muslims – since he cannot be sure that some of those who hear those narration’s will not use some or all of them, and perhaps they – or most of them – are lies which have no basis. And the authentic narrations form reliable narrators and people of precision are so plentiful that there is no need of the narration of someone who is not reliable"

Introduction Sahih Muslim

It only follows that one exercise extreme caution when narrating hadith and ensure that if they are weak one makes mention of it for the betterment of his own hereafter.

He who enters a graveyard and recites (Suurah) Yaa Siin, the (torment) is lightened for them on that day and he gets the reward of the number of (people buried) in it (i.e. the graveyard)

Sheikh al-albaani says it is fabricated. Why does he say so? Let's look at the chain

طريق محمد بن أحمد الرياحي

أبي

أيوب بن مدرك

أبي عبيدة

الحسن

أنس بن مالك

Abu 'ubaidah

Ibn Ma'iin said he is majhuul. So, firstly we have an unknown narrator in the chain

Ayyuub bin Mudrik

All of the scholars agree that he is weak and is to be abandoned.

As a matter of fact, Ibn Ma'iin said: He is a liar

So far we have a majhuul in the chain and a person who was a liar.

Now let's look at the next narrator

Ahmad al-RiyaaHai

He is Ahmad bin Yaziid bin diinaar 'Abu al-'awwaam

al-Bayhaqi says: He is majhuul

So, we have a chain in which we have two majhuul (unknown narrators - their state is not known) and a liar.

Why would anyone in their sane mind attribute something like this to the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) while hiding these facts except for a person who has a disease in his heart.

It's good if you quote full hadith with source as well.

The tears that fall from the eye of a truthful believer, out of the fear of the Lord, and then, roll down his face, however little they are, even of the size of the head of a fly, Allaah will forbid him to the Fire.

This hadith is weak

Let's look at the chain of this weak narration

Abd al-Rahmaan bin 'ibraahiim al-dimishqii and 'ibraahim bin al-Mundhir -> Ibn Abi Fudaik -> Hammaad bin Abi Humaid al-zuraqii -> 'aun bin Abd Allaah bin 'utbah bin Mas'uud -> his father -> Abd Allaah bin Mas'uud (may Allaah be pleased with him)

Hammaad bin Abi Humaid al-Zuraqii

He is munkar al-hadiith

Imaam al-Bayhaqi said: He is weak in the sight of the scholars of hadiith

Abuu Haatim said: He is munkar al-hadiith and weak. He narrates manaakiir from the reliable ones

Ibn Hibbaan said: He used to mix up the chains of narrators and did not understand the matn of the hadiith. When this becomes a lot in his narrations, then he cannot be used as evidence in regards to what he narrates

Imaam Abu Daawud said: He is weak

Imaam al-Tirmidhi said: He is not strong in the sight of the scholars of hadiith

Ahmad bin Hanbal said: His hadiith are munkar (rejected). And Imaam Ahmad bin Hanbal said: He is not strong in regards to hadiith

Imaam al-Nasaa'i said: He is not reliable

Ibn Hajar said: He is weak

Whoever recites and memorizes the Qur'aan, making lawful what it makes lawful, and unlawful what it makes lawful, Allaah will admit him to Paradise due to it, and grant him intercession for ten of his family members who were to be consigned to the Fire.

Imaam al-Tirmidhi says: This is a ghariib hadiith and I do not know of it except from this route and its chain of narrators is not authentic.

Why did Imaam al-Tirmidhi grade this hadiith weak?

Let's look at its chain

Ali bin Hujr -> HafD bin Sulaimaan -> Kathiir bin zaadhaan -> 'aaSim bin Damrah -> Ali bin Abi Taalib (may Allaah be pleased with him)

HafD bin Sulaimaan

Imaam al-Tirmidhi said: He is weak in regards to hadiith

al-Daarimi said: He is not reliable

Ahmad bin Muhammad al-baghdaadi said: HafD bin Sulaimaan and Abu Bakr bin 'aiyyaash were the most knowledgeable of people when it came to the recitation of 'aaSim. HafD was better in terms of recitation than Abu Bakr but he was a kadhdhaab (liar) while Abu Bakr was suduuq (honest)

Ibn al-Madiinii said: He was weak in hadiith

al-Bukhaari said: They abandoned him

Imaam Muslim said: He is matruuk

al-Nasaa'i said: He is not reliable and his hadiith are not written

Ibn Hajar said: He is abandoned when it comes to hadiith despite him being an Imaam in (Qur'aanic) recitation

He who prays an obligatory prayer has a Dua which will be answered and he who completes the Qur'ān has a Dua which is answered

The hadīth is weak

al-Haythami said:

In it is Abd al-Hamīd bin Sulaimān and he is weak

al-Tabarāni collected it in al-mu'jam al-kabīr

Let's look at the chain of this weak Hadith

الفضل بن هارون البغدادي

إسماعيل بن إبراهيم الترجماني

عبد الحميد ابن سليمان

أبي حازم
العرباض بن سارية

Abd al-Hameed bin Sulaimaan

Ibn al-Hajar said: He is weak

al-Hākim said: He is not strong

Ibn Hibbān: He is from those who make mistakes and mixes up the chains

Abu Dawud: He is not reliable

al-Nasā'i: He is weak

al-Dāraqutni: He is weak

Ibn Ma'īn: He is nothing

The hadīth is weak because of him. If you act on this Hadith and make a duā at the end of an obligatory prayer or when you complete the Qur'ān, and your duā is not accepted, don't blame Islām.

Rather, blame yourself for acting on a weak Hadith thinking with certainty that it is true while matter is such that a weak Hadith may or may not be true.

**ZeeshanParvez** · 04-21-2019

Poverty will never touch the one who recites Suurah al-waaqi'ah every night

The hadiith is weak

The chain includes طريق أبي شجاع and أبي طيبة

Both are unknown. They are majhuul. Their state is not known

Ibn Hajar showed that in this hadiith there is اضطراب from three perspectives

al-Daaraqutni said there is inqitaa' in the hadiith.

Ahmad did not consider the text of this hadiith proper

al-Manaawi said: The Hadiith is munkar

Imagine telling someone this hadith. You did not tell them it was so weak. They started to act on it with certainty.

They were sure poverty will never touch them. But poverty touched them. They lose their faith and Imaan all because you did not tell them that this is an extremely weak hadith so it might be true and it might not be true.

Compilation of weak and fabricated hadith and their evil effects in the Ummah by Sheikh al-albaani
Volume 1 Page 458

**ZeeshanParvez** · 04-22-2019

‘O People, there has come to you a great and blessed month, a month in which there is a night that is better than a thousand months. Allaah has made fasting (this month) an obligation and spending its nights in prayer an act of voluntary worship. Whoever draws near to Allaah during this month by doing some good deeds is like one who does an obligatory action at any other time, and the one who does an obligatory action during this month is like one who does seventy obligatory actions at any other times. It is a month whose beginning is mercy, its middle is forgiveness and its end is ransom from the Fire

The hadiith is very weak

The hadiith is present in Sahiih Ibn Khuzaimah

Ibn Khuzaimah said: If this hadiith is authentic

He used the word if. He did this with some of the narrations he included in his Sahiih. He did it when he was unsure if the hadiith was authentic or not.

The Imaam and Haafiz Muhammad bin Muusaa bin Hammaad al-'uqailii declared this hadiith weak.

Abu Haatim said the hadith was munkar (rejected)

Sheikh al-albaani graded it weak

Why did these great scholars of hadiith say it is weak? Let's look at the chain of this weak hadiith propagated among the masses without shame

Abu Abd al-Rahmaan Muhammad bin al-Husain bin Muhammad bin Muusaa al-Sulamii -> Abu 'amr 'ismaa'iil bin Nujaid -> Ja'far bin Muhammad bin sawwaar -> Ali bin Hujr -> Yusuf bin ziyaad -> Hammaam bin Yahyaa -> Ali bin Zaid bin Jud'aan -> Sa'iid bin al-Musaiyyib -> Sulmaan al-Farsii

There is inqitaa in the chain of this narration.

Sa'iid bin al-musayyab did not hear from Salmaan al-Farsii

The first problem with the chain is that there is inqitaa.

The second problem is the narrator

Ali bin Zaid bin Jud'aan

Some of the scholars who declared him weak include

Ahmad bin Hanbal
Ibn Ma'iin
al-Nasaa'i
Ibn Khuzaimah

al-Bayhaqi said: He is not strong
Ibn Hajar said: He is weak. He has a bad memory
Ibn al-Madiinii: He is weak
Ibn Khuzaimah said: He is not used as evidence because of his poor memory

So, for starters there is inqitaa in the chain. That means a narrator is missing. This alone makes the hadith weak. All the scholars of hadiith unanimously agree that a hadith which has inqitaa is weak.

Then, we have a narrator who is very weak because of his poor memory.

The hadiith is very weak. It is not fit to be mentioned to people.

Now you know why the great scholars of hadith such as Sheikh al-albaani, Abu Haatim, and al-'uqailii declared this hadith weak and munkar.

May Allaah guide us to the way of the Companions (may Allaah be pleased with them) who were very cautious in what they narrated.

Is this hadith narrated through other chains? It's very well known I'm surprised to hear its weak

Broi this particular wording is present via the chain mentioned. The last part of the above hadiith is mentioned in another hadith which will be added to the list of weak hadiith in the next post.

The first portion of the month of Ramadaan is Mercy, the middle portion is maghfirah, and the last portion is ransom from the Fire

Munkar (rejected)

Let's see the great scholars of hadiith who graded this weak

The great scholar of hadiith al-'uqailii
Ibn 'addi
al-khatiib al-baghdadi
Sheikh al-albaani

Why did these great scholars of hadiith declare this hadiith weak.

Let's look at the chain

سلام بن سوار

مسلمة بن الصلت

الزهري

أبو سلمة

أبو هريرة

Sallaam bin Sulaimaan bin sawwaar

Ibn 'addi said: He is rejected when it comes to hadiith in my opinion

So, we have a narrator who is rejected when it comes to hadiith. Now let's look at the next narrator who weakens this hadiith

Maslamah bin al-Salt

Abu Haatim says: He is rejected in regards to hadiith

This hadiith has two narrators who are rejected. Not one but two narrators.

Hence, Sheikh al-albaani called it munkar.

Now you know why the great scholars of hadiith rejected this hadiith.

Be careful when you tell people a hadiith. Make sure it is authentic.

Abd al-Rahmaan al-muslii

He is weak

No one from the scholars said he was reliable. No one.

Based on this, the scholars of hadiith said the hadiith is weak

Among these scholars was Sheikh al-albaani (may Allaah have mercy on him).

Narrated 'Ali: The Prophet said, "Do not tell a lie against me for whoever tells a lie against me (intentionally) then he will surely enter the Hell-fire."

**'Abdullah** · 08-26-2020

In order to motivate our youngsters, it is often reported :
Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) narrated that the Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said:

The pious offspring who casts a single look of affection at his parents receives a reward from Allah equal to the reward of an accepted Hajj.” The people enquired: “O Prophet of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam), if someone casts a hundred such glances of love and affection at his parents, what then?” The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Yes, indeed, even if one does so a hundred times a day, he will get a hundred fold reward. Allah is far greater than you imagine and is completely free from petty narrow mindedness. [Sahih Muslim]

Firstly, this narration is NOT in Sahih Muslim. This is yet another misattribution.
Secondly, it has been narrated through three different chains of narrators:

It is found in Al-Bayhaqi’s Shu’ab al-iman and contains a narrator by the name of Nahshal Ibn Sa’eed who was accused of lying by Ishaq bin Rahaway and Abu Dawud at-Tayalisi.Ad-Dhahabi graded it munkar (rejected) in his ‘Siyar a’lam an-nubala”’ (19/208) and Al-Albani graded it as mawdu’ in his ‘Silsilat ad-Da’eefah’, 3298.
Also found in Siyaru A’lam-in-Nubala of Al-Dhahabi and its chain contains a certain Muhammad Ibn Humaid whom experts have opined that “he is unreliable / he has many unacceptable narrations / I have not seen anybody more artful in lying than Ibn Humaid”
A third narration is found in Ibn Abid Dunya’s Makarim-ul-Akllaq, but its narrators are also unreliable.

Therefore, all these narrations are extremely weak.
In fact, Allamah Suyuti and Allamah Ibn ‘Arraq have classified it as a fabrication, as both have narrated the Hadith in their books on fabricated Ahadith; Az-Ziyadat ‘Ala al-Mawdhu’at and Tanzihu-sh-Shari’ah respectively.

Thus there’s no way this report is reliable, this hadith is not ‘just weak’, it’s an extremely weak hadith, thus unquotable.
Obeying parents is of course not the matter here, one must respect parents, I am only highlighting the fact this hadith is not in sahih Muslim and in fact cannot be quoted due to its high weakness.

As-Salaam alaikum,
We need to tread softly on this matter of so-called weak hadith...weak traditions. More often than not, such ahadith should be acceptable in our everyday life as we apply the Sunnah, especially where such ahadith encourage the practice of pious works or those that convey an indisputable spiritual teaching in Islam.

Some of our 'Ulama hold that one of the specific traits of an heir to the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, is to apply Hadith, in as a broad a way as possible, whether they be authentic or weak, by regularly practicing the former, and, even if only once, the latter, taking into account all the nuances brought out by the different versions, without attaching himself solely to the exterior criteria of the validity of the Hadith, except obviously when it is a matter of licit or illicit.

The imitation of the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, in conformity to the Sunnah leads in effect, according to the Holy Qur'an, to Divine Love: "Say: If truly you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will love you" (3:31)
