The questioner : ... that he gave it to his wife ... .
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : It is understood that he gave it to his wife.
The Shaykh : Why is it not understood that way?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Because it is not what must be understood, for the Messenger was wearing it.
The questioner : He was wearing it.

The questioner : This hadith does not support that; we have hidden it for him.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : It came in al-Tirmidhi that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ... Ibn Abbas ... Ibn Abbas moved forward ... it is not to be analogized to ... .
The Shaykh : No, no, no, it is not to be analogized to; these were beside him, but when he had a miswak and two men were in front of him, he wanted to give it to the one on the right, but he was told, "Say the takbir," because there was no one on his right or left. If there is one on the right and one on the left, he starts with the right. If they are in front of you, start with the takbir.

The Shaykh : Yes, that is enough, we have taken the four of them. Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
