Question:
This questioner says: How do we reconcile the hadith that prohibitedSunan Abi Dawud 81Sahih (Al-Albani) with the hadith Bulugh al-Maram 8?
Answer:
The scholars have two views on this. One is that the prohibition was in the early period, and the action of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was later, so it abrogates the first hadith. Another answer, which is better, is that the hadith of prohibition is understood as indicating a disliked act (makruh tanzi), and the hadith of action is the evidence for the ruling. This is better than the first. May Allah reward you.
