Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, among the questions from the previous lesson: The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged prostrating on the khamrah. It would be desirable if you would explain to the listeners what the khamrah is and what the hadith indicates.

Answer:
The khamrah is the prayer mat, or rather the mat or carpet on which one prays. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) sometimes prayed directly on the ground and sometimes prayed on the khamrah, meaning what is called the prayer mat. Yes.
