Generally in [[Islamic law]], only the authentic (sahih) and good (hasan) hadiths are used in deriving the rules.

For whatever reason, if a practicing Muslim wants to discount a sahih or hasan narration, the burden of proof is on them to prove why they consider it untrustworthy or not applicable to them. Refusing to accept a narration simply due to not finding it morally agreeable would render the hadith collections in their entirety as useless and contradictory anecdotes. This in turn would make much of the [[Qur'an]] incomprehensible, and many of its commands [[Qur'an Only Islam - Why it is Not Possible|impossible to follow]].
