The answer

If a fulfills the conditions of authenticity and acceptance, it is obligatory to act upon it, and no one has an excuse to abandon it except with a valid justification, such as it being subject to interpretation, abrogated, particularized, or restricted. For a Hadith to be authentic, five conditions are required: the continuity of the chain of transmission (), the uprightness (adalah) of all narrators, their precision (dabt), the absence of anomalousness (shudhudh), and the absence of a crippling defect (illah qadihah). The isnad may be free from defects, but the text (matn) may not be free from anomalousness or a defect, in which case the text becomes invalid. There is no necessary correlation between the authenticity of the isnad and the authenticity of the matn; the isnad may be authentic while the matn is not, due to anomalousness or a defect.
