The questioner:
The questioner asks: Is there anything left of the traces of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), such as his hair or his cloak, in this time? And is it true that in the end times a man will emerge carrying the cloak of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the people will gather around it?

The Shaykh:
This is among the superstitions. This is among the superstitions that are not to be believed and should not be paid attention to. Nothing remains of the traces of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), neither from his clothes nor from his hair (peace and blessings be upon him). Rather, these are superstitions promoted by some superstitious people who want to make a living and take people's money unjustly through these things. Yes.

The questioner:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you.

The Shaykh:
What the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) left for us is the Book and the Sunnah. It is obligatory for us to hold fast to the Book and the Sunnah. This is what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) left for us. He said:
Indeed, I am leaving among you, that which if you hold fast to them, you shall not be misguided after meاني تارك فيكم ما ان تمسكتم به لن تضلوا بعدي
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3788Sahih (Darussalam)
The Book of Allah and my Sunnah. This is what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) left for us. He did not say, "I have left for you something of my hair or something of my clothes." Rather, this is the talk of superstitious people. Yes.
