The questioner : The hadith, O Shaykh: Muwatta Malik 20:261 How authentic is it, and what is the implication of the hadith, I mean?
The Shaykh : The hadith is in the Muwatta of Malik and it is authentic, but what is the second part of the question?
The questioner : What is the implication of the hadith? Does it contain anything from the perspective of creed?
The Shaykh : It contains nothing, because the graves here are not visible, but this is a report from the reports of the unseen, so nothing is established on the basis of it.
The questioner : What does "sirr" mean, under which are seventy prophets? Does "sirr" mean ... only?
The Shaykh : Yes.
Another questioner: A sirr under it, or how?
The Shaykh : Yes, that is correct.
If you are between al-Akhshabayn (which are two mountains) near Mina,' indicating the east with his outspread hand, 'you will find a valley called as-Surar with a tree in it beneath which the umbilical cords of seventy prophets have been cut.'
