How can one reconcile the hadith (that tamattu' is valid until the Day of Resurrection) with the view (that it was specific to the Companions)?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Your Eminence,The Shaykh : The hadith of al-Miswar ibn Makhramah and the hadith of Abu Dharr indicate that tamattu' was specific to the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and there are other hadiths that clarify that it was not so, but rather is for eternity, as the Beloved (peace and blessings be upon him) explained; so what is your opinion on reconciling these texts?
The Shaykh : There is no contradiction between a marfu' and a mawquf. The hadith of Abu Dharr is not marfu', as it is from his own words; whereas the hadith of Suraqah ibn Malik is explicitly marfu'. Therefore, there is no need to reconcile a mawquf with a marfu', especially since the marfu' explicitly states that it is a ruling until the Day of ResurrectionJami` at-Tirmidhi 932Sahih (Darussalam) Thus, there is no issue in contradicting the hadith of Abu Dharr and similar ones with the hadith of Suraqah, which is his saying (peace be upon him): Jami` at-Tirmidhi 932Sahih (Darussalam) There is no issue in this.
The questioner : But al-Miswar explicitly stated that he asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saying, "We asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), specifically us, and he said, 'Yes'..."
The Shaykh : You mentioned the hadith of Abu Dharr, and the hadith of al-Miswar is the hadith of Abu Dharr, whose authenticity is well known. So who narrated the second hadith?
The questioner : I do not have its takhrij at the moment, but what I recall is that Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) accused it of being shadhdh, saying, "This contradicts other hadiths."
The Shaykh : Now that you have known this through the Imam of the Sunnah, adhere to what you have learned.
The questioner : What if others have graded it as sahih, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : We should know who published it and who graded it as sahih, so it cannot be sahih...
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
Abu Layla : There are old questions existing with our Shaykh,The Shaykh : with 'Ali... if Allah wills.
