The Ruling on Tasbih with the Left Hand

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The children of Allah, and its contradiction in Islam.

Answer:
Tasbih with the left hand is permissible, but the more preferable and better option is tasbih with the right hand; this is the preferred course. If one performs tasbih with both the right and left hands, that is permissible, because no evidence has come regarding a prohibition. The utmost that can be said is that it is recommended (mustahabb) to perform tasbih with the right hand; that is the domain of recommendation, meaning the domain of obligation. As for using the left hand to remove thorns, this falls under the principle that has passed: whatever is intended to remove filth is to be done with the left hand. Removing thorns is removing a nuisance from the mouth, so it is done with the left hand. That is, one holds the thorn with the left hand because it is the removal of a nuisance, namely the odor of the mouth and the residue in the mouth. Yes.
