The ruling on the sutrah for the ma'mum in the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: Does the hadith in al-Bukhari from 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), in which he said, “I came riding on a donkey,” up to the part where he mentions that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying with the people, and that there was no wall in Mina, indicate that the sutrah is a recommended practice (sunnah) or that it is obligatory?
Answer:
This hadith indicates that the imam’s sutrah serves as a sutrah for the ma'mum. So, when 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas passed in front of the row, if the row is behind an imam, then the imam’s sutrah is sufficient as a sutrah for the ma'mum. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
