Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is your opinion of the one who says that in this era, one does not combine prayers because of rain?
The Shaykh:
And that the hundred has risen.
The questioner:
The comb.
The Shaykh:
If all the rulings have ended, then if we say this, we are saying that many rulings have ended and are not practiced in the present time. The rulings are general until the Hour stands. The rulings of the Shari'ah are general unless the Hour stands; they are not restricted to one time over another. And hardship exists no matter what they say; hardship exists.
The presenter:
I say, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh:
What?
The presenter:
Yes.
