The Shaykh : So, by saying, I tell my brother Jamal that I would have liked it to be combined with his question about shrouding, that nothing be placed in front of the worshippers.
The questioner : Good.
The Shaykh : Because it distracts, and as is not hidden from those present, there are hadiths that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was concerned that there be nothing in the house where the worshipper prays that distracts him. Sometimes he would say, sometimes he would say . So, by the banner of Abu Juhaym, what?
The questioner : Abu Juhaym.
The Shaykh : Abu Juhaym, and bring me, not. And in a narration, . And sometimes, when he entered the interior of the Ka'bah and found the horns of the ram, he ordered them to be covered and concealed. So, you are between removing it from the qiblah.
The questioner : If Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Place it in the back.
The questioner : May Allah open for you, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Amen. The opening of the knowers, truly.
Another questioner : Our Shaykh, or covering them.
The Shaykh : Reasonable.
Another questioner : During the time of prayer.
The Shaykh : No, that is better.
Another questioner : He raises it.
The Shaykh : The back, meaning what? This is so that what?
Another questioner : He is at ease.
The Shaykh : No, not just that, but also to block the door for one who argues that this is worshipped besides Allah.
The questioner : Allahu Akbar.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. This question did not occur to me because I do not know where your qiblah is.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : This is one, but.
Another questioner : No problem, a question related to the topic.
The questioner : Fine, go ahead.
Another questioner : Our Shaykh, I truly have another question in mind now.
The Shaykh : Please go ahead.
Another questioner : And that is that this image, meaning, contains something of lying.
The Shaykh : Ah
Another questioner : Because what happened did not happen in this manner.
The Shaykh : I disagree with you on this.
Another questioner : Wait a moment, let me finish.
The Shaykh : Please go ahead.
Another questioner : Then this is a fabrication in this image and in this form, meaning, a fabrication so that it is said that this is nullified by that.
The Shaykh : Ah
Another questioner : Can it be said that this?
The Shaykh : It may be said, and it may not be said.
Another questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And I use "may" in its proper place.
Another questioner : Hehehehe, may, may.
The Shaykh : Ah, I say that this image itself truly contains what you mentioned.
The questioner : Good.

Remove these images of yours from us, for they distracted me.
أميطي عنا تصاويرك هذه فإنها ألهتنيGo and bring me the banner of Abu Juhaym.
اذهبوا بأنبيجانية أبي جهمThe questioner : Abu Juhaym.
The Shaykh : Abu Juhaym, and bring me, not
Not with this banner of mine, but bring me the banner of Abu Juhaym, for it distracted me.
بخميصتي هذه وائتوني بأنبيجانية أبي جهم فإنها ألهتنيIt almost distracted me from my prayer.
كادت أن تلهيني عن صلاتيThe questioner : If Allah wills.
