Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a questioner from outside this country says: In our country, when people finish their gatherings, they conclude the gathering by reciting these verses[As-Saffat 37:180-182] Is this practice prescribed?
Answer:
No, what is prescribed is what came in the hadith:Sunan Abi Dawud 4859Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani) This is the expiation for the gathering. If there was something in the gathering that is not pleasing, it serves as expiation. And if the gathering was a gathering of good, it is like a seal upon it. Yes.
