Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh! Is the story of Uwais al-Qarni authentic? I read it in one of the books regarding his dutifulness to his mother.
Answer:
Yes, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us about him that he was dutiful to his mother, and that he would come with the pilgrims from Yemen. So 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sought him out, asking about him until the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If you meet him, ask him to make du'a' for you." So 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) would go to the pilgrims from Yemen searching for this man until he found him. Then 'Umar asked him to make du'a' to Allah for him, and he did. Yes.
