The increase over seven dates and the meaning of the number seven

The questioner:
Shaykh, may Allah reward you, if one eats less than seven or more, especially regarding the seven?

The Shaykh:
Then it is more difficult.

The questioner:
If it is less than seven dates. More than me. From seven, eight, or more than seven, eight.

The Shaykh:
Eating more than seven is permissible, but fewer than seven does not achieve the objective unless it is seven. However, if he eats ten, there is no harm. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. If you are outside the city.

The Shaykh:
On the surface, yes, this is outside the city. Yes. Yes. I know. The number seven has a distinction in the East in many places; the tawaf is seven, the sa'y is seven, the heavens are seven, and the earth is seven; it has a distinction.

The questioner:
You give charity with ten, and it is not called giving charity with seven.

The Shaykh:
The increase does no harm, if Allah wills; the increase is good without evil, meaning. Yes.
