Takbir upon being surprised and those who disliked it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: The author (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in the chapter on seeking blessing from a tree, a stone, or the like, in the issues, that the thirteenth issue is takbir upon being surprised, contrary to those who disliked it. Who disliked it?
Answer:
I do not know. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say takbir when he was pleased with something, or he would glorify Allah (Mighty and Majestic). This is the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). He used to say takbir when he was pleased with something or when he disapproved of something. He used to say takbir, just as he said takbir when they said to him, "Make for us a Dhat Anwat, just as they have a Dhat Anwat," meaning just as the disbelievers have a tree to which they tie their weapons. He said (peace and blessings be upon him): "This is the way of those who came before you from the Children of Israel." When they said to Moses, "Make for us a god, just as they have gods," that is imitation and resemblance, and may Allah protect us from that. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said takbir in disapproval of this. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
