Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Ah, our Shaykh, perhaps in the chapter. This is apparent in the tea? Is there tea? There is tea, the problem is in the same topic. Ah, in the same topic. Ah. I say, our Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. In the chapter, a hadith that your eminence, my teacher, authenticated, in what I think, I do not remember now, certainly in Sahih al-Jami'. Please proceed. Which is the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
The Shaykh : And not follow [other] mosques.
The questioner : Or “not follow the mosques.” Where does this hadith stand in this research, may Allah preserve you?
The Shaykh : It is in what came before.
The questioner: It is in what preceded, if there is no cause, meaning? If there is no legitimate cause.
The Shaykh: I mean the one who follows mosques because he believes there are more rewards there.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: Yes, but if there is a stronger reason, as we mentioned earlier.
The questioner: A specific legal reason.
The Shaykh : Here.
The questioner: If you please, Allah, a moment. Is this a legal reason?
The Shaykh: I am afraid I will interrupt you and bother you with my response, so it is better if you repeat the question to me so that I may be excused,
The questioner: I have a question. I have a question.
The Shaykh: And be careful.
The questioner: I mean, our Shaykh, listen to some of the young men who leave the obligatory prayer in our neighborhood mosque and go to another mosque far away on the pretext that that imam's recitation or his voice in recitation is more beautiful than the voice of the imam in our mosque. Is this a legal reason for leaving the prayer in this mosque?
The Shaykh: No, but you have finished your matter now.
The questioner: He attributed it to some of the young men.
The Shaykh: Yes, but this is from the benefit, beware.
The questioner: I do not do it, our Shaykh, I do not do this, but the question came.
The Shaykh: I did not accuse you, and you have finished your matter.
The questioner: Welcome, welcome with good. Our Shaykh, if for example this man’s methodology. His methodology in creed.
The Shaykh: You will erase it, if, if, if.
The questioner: Because of the tea.
No, let one of you pray in the mosque nearest to him
