Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : A questioner says here: It is stated in the fatwas of Ibn Taymiyyah, volume such-and-such, page such-and-such, that Salman al-Farisi said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) The questioner asks: Is this correct?
Answer: I say: This is weak and not authentic. I believe that Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah is among those who pointed out its weakness. So I do not know whether the questioner did not come across this indication, or whether the Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) overlooked this indication.
We find in the Torah that among the blessings of food is ablution before it. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Among the blessings of food is ablution before it and ablution after it.
إنا نجد في التوراة أن من بركعة الطعام الوضوء قبله، فقال صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم: من بركة الطعام الوضوء قبله والوضوء بعدهAnswer: I say: This is weak and not authentic. I believe that Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah is among those who pointed out its weakness. So I do not know whether the questioner did not come across this indication, or whether the Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) overlooked this indication.
