Shaykh Al-Albani (RA)

Where did I claim that he studied under Shaykh Raghib Al-Tabbakh in the whole thread?[/quote]

Maybe the misunderstanding came from here:

[quote="Muadh_Khan"]
A Master of Hadeeth by the name of Shaykh Raghib Al-Tabbakh (RA) vistied the library around 1951 and he was introduced to a young Al-Albani when he gave him Ijazah in Hadeeth Musalsal.

The Ijazas of Hadeeth Musalsal are given for Barakah by many Mashaykh and this Hadeeth is mentioned by Shaykh Al-Albani (RA) in his own book that Shaykh Raghib Al-Tabbakh (RA) gave me Ijazah in it. The hadeeth is as follows:

أما بعد، روى أبو داود في سننه ( 1522 ) من حديث الصُنَابِحِي عن معاذ بن جبل رضي الله عنه: أن رسول الله صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أخذ بيده، وقال: " يا معاذُ! والله إني لأُحِبّكَ، والله إني لأُحِبُّكَ ". فقال: " أوصيك يا معاذ! لا تدعَنَّ في دُبُرِ كل صلاة تقول: اللهم! أَعِنّي على ذِكرِكَ وشُكْرِكَ وحُسْنِ عبادتك " .

Mu'adh reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, took him by the hand and said, "O Mu'adh! By Allah, I love you.and I advise you not to fail to say after every prayer, 'O Allah, help me to remember You and thank You and worship You well." [Abu Dawud and an-Nasa'i]

This is a general Ijazah and I also have one of these so I hope that Khala Ummi Talib also accepts me as a Scholar of Hadeeth! :- )
