Tying the beads of dhikr with the right hand or the left hand
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) tie the beads of dhikr with his right hand? And does he disapprove of the one who ties them with his left hand?
Answer:
No, there is no disapproval. One ties the beads of dhikr with the fingers of the right hand and the left hand, just as one does not supplicate with the right hand only. Does he not raise both his hands? And although he may rely on raising only the right hand, he also prostrates on his hands. Why does he not prostrate on one hand, the right one, and raise the left one? Why? The left hand is one of your limbs, and you use it in the obedience of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
