The Ruling on Using a Rivet to Repair a Vessel
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: May I seek the Shaykh’s pardon, may Allah forgive me. What is the ruling on using a rivet? If one uses a small rivet to repair a vessel, while it is possible to repair the vessel without this rivet?
Answer:
The Shaykh: There is no harm, even if it is possible for him to do so, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did this, and it was possible for him to take something else. This is a matter of dispensation and ease.
