Question:
Honorable Shaykh, it is not lost in what she said regarding the three; Allah knows best. What is said about what she said regarding the rays (may Allah be pleased with her), “How bad is what you have likened it to,” and then Abu al-Harith denied it.
Answer:
It did not reach her that it was the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not reach her; rather, she thought that this was from the speech of the Companions. Otherwise, if she had known that this was the speech of the Messenger, she would not have forbidden it to him. Yes.
