Weak aHadith are allowed for Fada'il

[Aqdas]

even if a Hadith is da'eef, for faDa'il al-a'maal, it can be followed.

 

[Aqdas]

i forgot to say, the above is from shaykhu'l islam wa'l muslimeen [1340], imam ahmad raza khan barelwi's book muneer al-'ayn fi taqbil al-ibhamayn.

 

[sahebju]

mi muradabadi, in his famous book, jaa al haq, part 2 mentions that
*weak hadeeth can be taken for fazails
*but can not be considered for ahkam
*if weak hadeeth is followed by ulema of ummath it will become husn.
hope it is help ful
with salams
