Q 3:
What is the ruling on the Khatib (preacher) who narrates Israelite narrations (reported from the Jews) and Da`if (weak) Hadiths during the Friday Khutbah (sermon) to gain people's admiration?
(Part No. 8; Page No. 230)
A:
If you are sure that what he mentions in the Khutbah are baseless Israelites or Da`if Hadiths, you should advise him to cite Sahih Hadiths (authentic Hadiths) and Qur'anic Ayahs (verses) instead. He should not attribute anything to the Prophet (peace be upon him) without being sure of its authenticity, for the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
Religion is based on advising one another.

in his Sahih]. Advice should be given in an appropriate and friendly way, rather than in a violent and strict way. May Allah grant you success!May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
