If the Hadith "There is nothing like marriage for two who love one another" were to be considered weak, would it meet the conditions for acting upon a weak Hadith? What is the general stance regarding Hadiths over which scholars have differed in authenticating or deeming weak, and is it advisable to cite this Hadith when proposing to a girl?

Al-Albani authenticated the hadith, "If one of you loves his female companion, then let him come and propose to her," while Ibn Uthaymeen deemed it weak, though the latter affirmed the soundness of its meaning. Marriage is the greatest solution to prevent temptation (fitna) and indecency (fahisha) in cases of love between a man and a woman. Ibn Uthaymeen also warned against communication between those in love outside of legitimate (shar'i) means. The hadith does not fall under the virtues of deeds, and its meaning is that marriage is the greatest cure for passionate love, which is alluded to in the verse: "Allah wants to lighten your burden, and mankind was created weak." (Quran 4:28) There is no harm in mentioning the hadith to the girl's guardian during the proposal, but openly declaring love might not be desirable and could lead to the rejection of the proposal.
