The questioner:
Congratulations on your beneficial knowledge and correct creed, but few understand it. Few understand this issue except those whom Allah has guided. Yes. Especially when you know that what came after it is greater than the five daily prayers?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Especially when you know that what came after it is greater than the five daily prayers, and it was not made obligatory except on the night of the Isra' in the twentieth year.
The Shaykh:
Shirk (associating partners with Allah): Allah commanded His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to prohibit it at the very beginning of his mission.[Al-Muddaththir 74:2-4] And al-rajz, meaning the idols, so abandon them. The first thing Allah commanded was abandoning the idols, staying away from them, prohibiting them, and warning against al-rajz. So abandon it, abandon it, leave it, and warn against it.
