The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to worship Allah by abstaining from speech, as Mary (peace be upon her) did?
The Shaykh:
No, no. Mary did it out of necessity. You have no need to abstain from speech in this way. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable.
The Shaykh:
The one in ihram refrains from it; he abstains from forbidden speech. Yes.
