The questioner:
Therefore, if it is in the public interest for the Shaykh to delay the 'Isha' prayer from the beginning of its time due to hardship, why did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) take it with hardship upon the Companions and those with urgent matters?
The Shaykh:
He did not always delay it; rather, he delayed it on some occasions to demonstrate its permissibility, to demonstrate its permissibility. He did not always delay it; rather, he observed the state of his Companions. However, he would delay it at times to demonstrate its permissibility, (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger is a legislator; he does things for the sake of legislation and explaining them to the people. Yes.
The questioner:
Okay.
The Shaykh:
As for an imam other than the Messenger, he does not do this and does not cause hardship for the people. To cause hardship for the people in order to achieve a recommended practice (sunnah) is not correct. Yes.
