The questioner : May Allah reward you, Shaykh. Regarding the Shaykh, there is a hadith in al-Bukhari from Ibn Abbas in which he said: We were forbidden to use rhyming in supplication.
The Shaykh : Yes, what is meant is the rhyming that changes the meaning, or forced rhyming. As for rhyming that is not forced, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used rhyming in supplication.
