I came across a very interesting and beautiful Hadith:
The Messenger (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “This sacred knowledge will be borne by the reliable authorities of each successive generation, who will [preserve it and] remove from it the alterations of the excessive, the interpolations of the corrupt, and the false interpretations of the ignorant.”
Is this Hadith authentic?
Answer:
This Hadith is reported by several Sahabah (radiyallahu ‘anhum).
Imams Ahmad, Abu Musa Al-Madini, ‘Alaiy and others (rahimahumullah) have declared it reliable.
Refer: Atharul Hadith, pg.7 and Shaykh ‘Awamah’s commentary on Tadribur Rawi, vol.4 pg.24-25 and Al-Jami’u li Akhlaqir Rawi, Hadith: 137.
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
