The questioner : ... cameThe Shaykh : to us and prayed in the mosque, and the imam raised his head from bowing and placed his hands on his chest, so the brothers witnessed it.The Shaykh : He was following the imam and did the same, so it became in Jeddah thatThe Shaykh : he returned to Ibn Baz's opinion on the issue...
Abu Malik: What he mentioned: The imam is only made to be followed...
The questioner : So they came and asked him, "Have you changed your opinion on the issue, O Shaykh?" And this is the chapter where the saying is prioritized over the action in general, the Messenger's saying is prioritized over his action, because the action sometimes has a specific context.
The Shaykh : No, I do not think this applies here precisely; because there must be an explicit narration that he did not place his hands after bowing, so it would be said that the command is prioritized over the action here; but we have nothing except that our position is negative, the one who claims that this placement after bowing is established must bring the proof, and they have no evidence except generalities that do not stand up to scientific jurisprudential critique.
Abu Layla : You were our Shaykh, you informed us last week when you sat in the second rak'ah of the Friday prayer, and you had pain in your feet, then I saw you sitting cross-legged; but I have not asked you yet, so you said: I did this because I have pain.
Al-Halabi : Meaning, as you remember for the brothers...
The Shaykh : We do not fight the pairing, the tripling, or the four ever; but we say the time of establishment and education is corrupt.
Al-Halabi : This is the intended meaning.
The Shaykh : Yes, but the wording does not give it, he laughs (may Allah have mercy on him) and the students.
