“ لاَ تَقْضِيَنَّ وَلاَ تَفْصِلَنَّ إِلاَّ بِمَا تَعْلَمُ فَإِنْ أَشْكَلَ عَلَيْكَ أَمْرٌ فَقِفْ حَتَّى تُبَيِّنَهُ أَوْ تَكْتُبَ إِلَىَّ فِيهِ ” .
Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 0, Hadith 55
Ungraded
The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. As a key component of the Kutub al-Sittah, Sunan Ibn Majah was authored by the Islamic scholar Ibn Majah (d. 886 CE) and includes roughly 4,000 prophetic traditions. The scope of the work is comprehensive, covering essential areas such as theological beliefs, laws governing worship, moral principles, and various societal matters. It is important to note that while the collection is highly valued, its status is distinct from the other five major books. Scholars frequently place it in a separate category because its contents include a proportion of weak or disputed narrations not found in the more stringent compilations. However, its comprehensive nature ensures its continued importance as a scholarly resource.
