The questioner : All right; if you enter the gathering, where do you start?
The Shaykh : From the right.
The questioner : From the right or from the oldest in shaking hands?
The Shaykh : No, from the right. We have a rule about starting with the right, but we do not have a rule about starting with the oldest.
Yes.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Regarding the black that is actually permitted, or should we understand the black that is actually permitted to be the very black in terms of darkness? As for the greeting, it is once to the people of the deceased in any case. As for shaking hands, it is for each person if it is possible, without a greeting.
