What is our stance regarding those who deem Hadiths in Sahih al-Bukhari or Sahih Muslim to be weak?
What the two Sheikhs narrated has been accepted by the Ummah, and no aspersion against them is heard except what scholars have clarified. Among what was held against Muslim is his narration of Abu Hurayrah's : "Allah created the soil on Saturday..." The correct view is that it is from Abu Hurayrah's narration from Ka'b al-Ahbar, because the verses and authentic hadiths indicate that Allah created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days, the first of which is Sunday and the last is Friday. Therefore, the statement that Allah created the soil on Saturday is among the false Isra'iliyyat (Jewish traditions).
