What is the ruling on describing Imam Malik's statement regarding سلس ( سلس البول - urinary incontinence or سلس الريح - flatulence incontinence) as "منكر" (reprehensible or objectionable), knowing that his madhhab (school of thought) is authoritative and strong?

The "reprehensible statement" (al-qawl al-munkar) transmitted by Al-Hattab from Al-Ubay in "Al-Ikmal" means that a dissenter from Imam Malik's madhhab attributed to him another statement unknown within the madhhab. It is not intended to disparage Imam Malik's words or his madhhab. Rather, it is a defense of his madhhab, clarifying that what was attributed to him holds no weight because it is reprehensible, anomalous, or weak. Malik's madhhab, like other madhahib, contains both sound and weak opinions. The existence of a weak opinion is not considered a disparagement of the madhhab.
