Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is the hadith authentic:Mishkat al-Masabih 971 and then he prayed two rak'ahs, and it was written for him as the reward of a Hajj? And is it from the Sunnah to do that?
Answer:
Yes, this hadith was reported in this matter, but there is a discussion regarding its chain of narration. In any case, if one acts upon it, it is not obligatory, meaning that the hadith is not fully authentic. Even if the hadith were good, these are virtues, and these chains are not obligations. Yes.
