Hadith of Abi Barza (Allah be pleased with him): “By Allah, you will not find a man more just than me” (Sunan al-Nisai, 7/120 no. 4103).
Al-Albani said that this Hadith was SAHIH in “Sahih al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 6/105 no. 6978?, and then he astonishingly contradicts himself by saying it is DAEEF in “Daeef Sunan al-Nisai, pg. 164 no. 287.”
So beware of this mess!

No 29 : (* Pg. 144 no. 2 )

Al-Albani acknowledged its weakness in “Sahih Ibn Khuzaima” by saying that the sanad was DAEEF, but then contradicts himself by saying it is SAHIH in “Sahih al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 1/312 no. 923!”

No 30 : (* Pg. 144 no. 3 )
Hadith of Sayyidina Jabir ibn Abdullah (Allah be pleased with him): “The Prophet (Peace be upon him) was asked about the sexually defiled [junubi]. . . can he eat, or sleep. . . He said :’Yes, when this person makes wudhu.’” (Ibn Khuzaima no. 217 and Ibn Majah no. 592).
Al-Albani has admitted its weakness in his comments on “Ibn Khuzaima, 1/108 no. 217?, but then contradicts himself by correcting the above Hadith in “Sahih Ibn Majah, 1/96 no. 482 “!!

No 31 : (* Pg. 145 no. 4 )
Hadith of Aisha (Allah be pleased with her): “A vessel as a vessel and food as food” (Nisai, 7/71 no. 3957).
Al-Albani said that it was SAHIH in “Sahih al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 2/13 no. 1462?, but then contradicts himself in “Daeef Sunan al-Nisai, no. 263 pg. 157?, by saying it is DAEEF!!!

No 32 : (* Pg. 145 no. 5 )
Hadith of Anas (Allah be pleased with him): “Let each one of you ask Allah for all his needs, even for his sandal thong if it gets cut.”
Al-Albani said that the above Hadith was HASAN in his checking of “Mishkat, 2/696 no. 2251 and 2252?, but then contradicts himself in “Daeef al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 5/69 no. 4947 and 4948?!!!

So what a big contradiction!
NB- (Al-Albani mentioned this Hadith in ‘Sahih al-Nisai’ and in ‘Daeef al-Nisai’, which proves that he is unaware of what he has and is classifying, how inept!)

No 34 : (* Pg. 147 no. 7 )
Hadith of Sayyida Maymoonah (Allah be pleased with her): “There is nobody who has taken a loan and it is in the knowledge of Allah. . . .” (Nisai, 7/315 and others).
Al-Albani said in “Daeef al-Nisai, pg 190?: “Sahih, except for the part al-Dunya.” Then he contradicts himself in “Sahih al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 5/156?, by saying that the whole Hadith is SAHIH, including the al-Dunya part. So what an amazing contradiction!

Al-Albani has weakened it with reference to the ‘3 days’ part in “Daeef Sunan al-Nisai, pg. 186?, by saying: “Correct, except for 3 days.” But the ‘genius’ contradicts himself by correcting the Hadith and approving the ‘3 days’ part in “Sahih al-Jami wa Ziyadatuh, 5/220 no. 5804?.
So wake up (al-Albani)!!

No 37 : (* Pg. 148 no. 10 )
Hadith of Abu Hurayra (Allah be pleased with him): “Whoever catches a single rak’ah of the Friday prayer has caught (the whole prayer).” (Nisai 3/112, Ibn Majah 1/356 and others). Al-Albani has weakened it in “Daeef Sunan al-Nisai, no. 78 pg. 49?, where he said: “Abnormal (shadh), where Friday is mentioned.” He then contradicts himself by saying SAHIH, including the Friday part in “Irwa, 3/84 no. 622 .”
May Allah heal you!

AL-ALBANI AND HIS DEFAMATION AND AUTHENTICATION OF NARRATORS AT WILL!

No 38 : (* Pg 157 no 1 )
KANAAN IBN ABDULLAH AN-NAHMY :- Al-Albani said in his “Sahihah, 3/481? : “Kanaan is considered hasan, for he is attested by Ibn Ma’een.” Al-Albani then contradicts himself by saying, “There is weakness in Kanaan” (see “Daeefah, 4/282?)!!

No 39 : (* Pg. 158 no. 2 )
MAJA’A IBN AL-ZUBAIR :- Al-Albani has weakened Maja’a in “Irwa al-Ghalil, 3/242?, by saying, “This is a weak sanad because Ahmad has said: ‘There is nothing wrong with Maja’a', and Daraqutni has weakened him. . .”
Al-Albani then made a contradiction in his “Sahihah, 1/613? by saying: “His men (the narrators) are trusted except for Maja’a who is a good narrator of Hadith.”
An amazing contradiction!

No 40 : (* Pg. 158 no. 3 )
UTBA IBN HAMID AL-DHABI :- Al-Albani has weakened him in “Irwa al-Ghalil, 5/237? by saying: “And this is a weak (Daeef) sanad which has three defects. . . . the second defect is the weakness of al-Dhabi, the Hafiz said: ‘A truthful narrator with hallucinations’”.
Al-Albani then makes an obvious contradiction in “Sahihah, 2/432?, where he said about a sanad which mentions Utba: “And this is a good (hasan) sanad, Utba ibn Hamid al-Dhabi is trustworthy but has hallucinations, and the rest of the narrators in the sanad are trusted.” !!

No 41 : (* Pg. 159 no. 4 )
HISHAM IBN SA’AD :- Al-Albani said in his “Sahihah, 1/325?: “Hisham ibn Sa’ad is a good narrator of Hadith.” He then contradicts himself in “Irwa al-Ghalil, 1/283? by saying: “But this Hisham has a weakness in memorizing”
So what an amazement!!

No 42 : (* Pg. 160 no. 5 )
UMAR IBN ALI AL-MUQADDAMI :- Al-Albani has weakened him in “Sahihah, 1/371?, where he said: “He in himself is trusted but he used to be a very bad forger, which makes him undependable. . . .” Al-Albani then contradicts himself again in “Sahihah, 2/259? by accepting him and describing him as being trustworthy from a sanad which mentions Umar ibn Ali. Al-Albani says: “Classified by Hakim, who said: ‘A Sahih Isnad (chain of transmission)’, and al-Dhahabi went along with it, and it is as they have said.”
So what an amazement !!!

No 43 : (* Pg. 160 no. 6 )
ALI IBN SA’EED AL-RAZI :- Al-Albani has weakened him in “Irwa, 7/13?, by saying: “They have said nothing good about al-Razi.” He then contradicts himself in another ‘fantastic’ book of his, “Sahihah, 4/25?, by saying: “This is a good (hasan) sanad and the narrators are all trustworthy.”
So beware !!!

No 44 : (* Pg. 165 no. 13 )
RISHDIN IBN SA’AD :- Al-Albani said in his “Sahihah, 3/79? : “In it (the sanad) is Rishdin ibn Sa’ad, and he has been declared trustworthy.” But then he contradicts himself by declaring him to be DAEEF in “Daeefah, 4/53?; where he said: “And Rishdin ibn Sa’ad is also daeef.” So beware!!

No 45 : (* Pg. 161 no. 8 )
ASHAATH IBN ISHAQ IBN SA’AD :- What an amazing fellow this Shaykh!! Al-Albani!! Proves to be. He said in “Irwa al-Ghalil, 2/228?: “His status is unknown, and only Ibn Hibban trusted him.” But then he contradicts himself by his usual habit! Because he only transfers from books and nothing else, and he copies without knowledge; this is proven in “Sahihah, 1/450?, where he said about Ashaath: “Trustworthy”. So what an amazement!!!

No 46 : (* Pg. 162 no. 9 )
IBRAHIM IBN HAANI :- The honourable!! The genius!! The copier!! Has made Ibrahim ibn Haani trustworthy in one place and has then made him unknown in another. Al-Albani said in ‘Sahihah, 3/426?: “Ibrahim ibn Haani is trustworthy”, but then he contradicts himself in “Daeefah, 2/225?, by saying that he is unknown and his Ahadith are refused!!

No 47 : (* Pg. 163 no. 10 )
AL-IJLAA IBN ABDULLAH AL-KUFI :- Al-Albani has corrected a sanad by saying it is good in “Irwa, 8/7?, with the words: “And its sanad is good, the narrators are trustworthy, except for Ibn Abdullah al-Kufi who is truthful.” He then contradicts himself by weakening the sanad of a Hadith where al-Ijlaa is found and has made him the reason for declaring it DAEEF (see ‘Daeefah, 4/71?); where he said: “Ijlaa ibn Abdullah has a weakness.” Al-Albani then quoted Ibn al-Jawzi’s (Rahimahullah) words by saying: “Al-Ijlaa did not know what he was saying .”!!!

No 48 : (* Pg. 67-69 )
ABDULLAH IBN SALIH : KAATIB AL-LAYTH :- Al-Albani has criticised Al-Hafiz al-Haythami, Al-Hafiz al-Suyuti, Imam Munawi and the Muhaddith Abu’l-Fadl al-Ghimari (Allah’s mercy be upon them) in his book “Silsilah al-Daeefah, 4/302?, when checking a Hadith containing the narrator Abdullah ibn Salih. He says on page 300: “How could Ibn Salih be all right and his Hadith be good, even though he has got many mistakes and is of little awareness, which also made some fraudulent Hadiths enter his books, and he narrates them without knowing about them!” He has not mentioned that Abdullah ibn Salih is one of Imam al-Bukhari’s men (i.e. used by al-Bukhari), because it does not suit his mode, and he does not state that Ibn Ma’een and some of the leading critics of Hadith have trusted him. Al-Albani has contradicted himself in other places in his books by making Hadiths containing Abdullah ibn Salih to be good, and here they are :-
Al-Albani said in “Silsilah al-Sahihah, 3/229? : “And so the sanad is good, because Rashid ibn Sa’ad is trustworthy by agreement, and who is less than him in the men of Sahih, and there is also Abdullah ibn Salih who has said things that are unharmful with Allah’s help!!” Al-Albani also said in “Sahihah, 2/406? about a sanad which contained Ibn Salih: “a good sanad in continuity.” And again in “Sahihah, 4/647?: “He’s a proof with continuity.”

NB- (Shaykh Saqqaf then continued with some important advice, this has been left untranslated for brevity but one may refer to the Arabic for further elaboration).

By the grace of Allah, this is enough from the books of Shaykh Saqqaf to convince any seeker of the truth, let alone the common folk who have little knowledge of the science of Hadith. If anyone is interested for hundreds of other similar quotes from Shaykh Saqqaf, then there are in book of Tanaqadat al-Albani al-Wadihat (The Clear Contradictions of al-Albani).
