What is the sunnah of approval?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : The individual sunnah is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do or say, but the Companions did, and he approved of it.

Answer : Yes, but did he say the opposite? Our discussion is if he said the opposite or did the opposite. As for if it is an act of worship and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) approved of it, and no contrary report is narrated from him, then it is a sunnah with no issue.
