Introduction
باب وُجُوبِ الرِّوَايَةِ عَنِ الثِّقَاتِ، وَتَرْكِ الْكَذَّابِينَ
Chapter: Narration Should Always Be From Trustworthy and Reliable People, and Not From Those Proven to Lie
Sahih Muslim 15Q1 — Narration Should Always Be From Trustworthy
وَدَلَّتِ السُّنَّةُ عَلَى نَفْيِ رِوَايَةِ الْمُنْكَرِ مِنَ الأَخْبَارِ كَنَحْوِ دَلاَلَةِ الْقُرْآنِ عَلَى نَفْيِ خَبَرِ الْفَاسِقِ. وَهُوَ الأَثَرُ الْمَشْهُورُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ حَدَّثَ عَنِّي بِحَدِيثٍ يُرَى أَنَّهُ كَذِبٌ فَهُوَ أَحَدُ الْكَاذِبِينَ».
And the Sunnah indicates the rejection of narrating munkar reports, just as the Qur'an indicates the rejection of the report of a sinful person. That is the well-known narration from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever narrates a hadith from me which is seen to be a lie, he is one of the liars."
