Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan ad-Daraqutni 3:580, is this specific to the one who prayed in his tent and did not pray in the mosque, or is it general for everyone?
Answer:
It is general for everyone, but this is a specific incident, because they said, “We prayed in our tents,” so it is a specific incident. Is the hadith not general? Yes. Or do you lower the cold? Yes.
