The questioner : The aforementioned hadith is the hadith of 'Utbah. How do we reconcile it with the hadith of Ibn Umm Maktum, in which the Messenger did not grant him a dispensation to pray... ?
The Shaykh : Because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) knew that 'Utbah ibn Malik had a clear excuse, unlike the first one.
The questioner : Also, in the hadith of Ibn Umm Maktum, "O Shaykh... and I have no guide to lead me?"
The Shaykh : There is a point of consideration here. I say that there is a point of consideration regarding the authenticity of these words.
