Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: And Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Maqdami and 'Ubayd Allah ibn Sa'id narrated it to us, and they said: Yahya, and he is al-Qattan, narrated it to us from Shu'bah with this chain of narration.
The Shaykh : And I also have what prevents abrogation: that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, death is a panic." This is a cause that is established and cannot fail. It is as mentioned regarding touching the private parts, where the Messenger (peace be upon him) was asked about ablution, and he said: "No, it is only a part of you." Therefore, it is not possible for the non-obligation to be abrogated such that it is said: it became obligatory afterwards.
This issue is one in which one should be careful: if the cause is established and cannot be removed, then the ruling follows it. However, it can be said: this is from the category of recommendation; standing is recommended and not obligatory.
