The ruling on holding a cane during the Friday sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He has a second question as well regarding the Friday prayer. He asks: Did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) hold a cane during the sermon?
Answer:
Yes, holding a cane or leaning on something, such as the edge of the pulpit, is for the purpose of seeking assistance in delivering the sermon. This is because leaning on something strengthens the one standing and helps him, so it falls under the category of seeking assistance. This is a recommended practice (mustahabb), not obligatory. It is not obligatory. Yes.
