The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, do not the hadiths narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the prohibition of looking up at the sky indicate that it is forbidden, rather than merely disliked?
The Shaykh:
They interpreted it as disliked, not forbidden. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
This is among the etiquettes; this is among the etiquettes in prayer. It does not conflict with the prayer, but it is among the etiquettes and humility. Yes.
