What is the authenticity of the hadith: "My Ummah will continue to be good as long as they enjoin good, forbid evil, and cooperate in righteousness. But if they do not do that, blessings will be removed from them, some of them will be given authority over others, and they will have no helper on earth or in heaven"?
The words mentioned in the question, attributed to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, have not been found in the books of , nor in books categorized under weak or fabricated hadiths. Despite the gravity of abandoning enjoining good and forbidding evil, it is impermissible to attribute any to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, without first verifying its authenticity through a sound or good chain of transmission. A Muslim must not propagate any hadith without first verifying its authenticity, lest they spread a fabricated hadith and thus fall under the warning of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Whoever attributes to me what I have not said, let him prepare his seat in the Fire."
