Combining the avoidance of disturbing people with reviving lost sunnahs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do we combine not disturbing people with reviving lost sunnahs?
Answer:
What sunnah is this, my brother? It is not a sunnah. Some scholars or some of the Companions did it, but nothing of that is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So do not disturb the people. If you pray alone, do what you wish. But if you disturb the people by doing something they are not accustomed to or do not know, that is not permissible.
