The questioner : Why did they stipulate?
The Shaykh : That the removal of his impediment be expected.
The questioner : He stipulated this in his verse and its play on words. So that when the day comes and he prays with them standing, and he is equal to them in standing, meaning the imam was not lower, except, except for.
The Shaykh : Yes. Khalid.
The questioner : That if the removal of his impediment is not expected, that would be among the causes of their remaining behind this imam sitting for the duration of their lives.
The Shaykh : Yes. Do you understand? They said it is obligatory that their prayer behind this imam remain sitting. Now, what do you say about this reasoning?
The questioner : This reasoning is refuted because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the one who ordered sitting when he prayed the day while sitting.
The Shaykh : And he did not.
The questioner : And he did not say if it is removed, provided its removal is hoped for.
The Shaykh : Meaning, he did not explain.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : He did not distinguish, okay, and he did not distinguish. Then it is possible that he prays with them one obligatory prayer and then dies or his state of purity is broken.
The questioner : Or they pray in another place. Yes. Or they pray in another place.
The Shaykh : Yes, or he prays in another place.
