Is the hadith prohibiting sitting between the shade and the sun authentic, and does it include one who did not intend it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : And praise be to Allah, please reassure me... I do not know what is in your heart, as that poet said.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Even if he may not be a Muslim, the meaning is correct: "Indeed, speech is in the heart," and "the tongue is made a sign for the heart." So, what remains is what is in your heart.
The questioner : It is clear...
The Shaykh : But your evidence is the tongue. You asked whether the hadith prohibiting sitting between the shade and the sun is authentic or not?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : This was your question, though it was a bit mumbled. But if this is what was intended, you have received the answer that the hadith is authentic. However, a second question came up afterwards, meaning you got confused between the general case and the intentional case. Therefore, the matter here needs clarification from you.
The questioner : My intention is that this hadith is general for everyone who intentionally sits between the shade and the sun... meaning, for instance, if a person was sitting in the shade, and then the shade moved until the sun reached him, so he is now between the shade and the sun. Does this prohibition include one whose situation is like this?
The Shaykh : Before the example, I am afraid the error is in your example. Is there an issue? The first thing asked about this hadith is the intentional case.
The questioner : No, of course not.
The Shaykh : There is no problem.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Okay, let us return to your example. In this example, do you imagine that the one who was in the shade and then the sun hit part of him was aware, or was he unaware? One of two things?
The questioner : By Allah, of course, he was aware.
The Shaykh : One of two things. You want to say it does not require thought; it is a self-evident matter. One of two things: if you say he was aware, was he intentional or not intentional?
The questioner : Not intentional.
The Shaykh : ... You say he was aware.
The questioner : If he was aware, he became intentional.
The Shaykh : Okay, leave it, leave it.
The questioner : ... Complete.
The Shaykh : This means he was aware, and you say he was not intentional. There is another type: he is not aware, is that not so? Was he intentional or not intentional?
The questioner : Not intentional.
The Shaykh : Both are the same, hehe.
The questioner : My Shaykh, what confused him is that the sun that came to him was not him entering the sun.
The Shaykh : Yes, glory be to Allah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Even if he may not be a Muslim, the meaning is correct: "Indeed, speech is in the heart," and "the tongue is made a sign for the heart." So, what remains is what is in your heart.
