Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : According to the school of thought that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) provides reasons for.
The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : Is it permissible for us to say, O Shaykh, that they are rational evidence?
The Shaykh : What? Repeat the question?
The questioner : The reasons given by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for his rulings: Is it permissible to call them rational evidence?
The Shaykh : Yes, but they are rational evidence based on the Shari'ah. The Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) approval of them is a matter of the Shari'ah, and the fact that reason supports them is also a matter of reason. Yes.
The questioner : If measuring causes the blessing to leave!
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : Measuring causes the blessing to leave.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Does counting money fall under the same ruling?
The Shaykh : By Allah, it appears to be the same. If a person were to count, for example, according to the bag, so that every time he takes a riyal he counts the rest, I fear that the blessing would be removed from it. But leave it to Allah. Do not burden yourself until you are finished, and the blessing will come to you. Yes, Shaker?
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. Regarding the prohibition of drinking with the left hand: Do we tell a person who smokes a cigarette or a shisha to drink it with his left hand?
The Shaykh : We say: Do not smoke at all.
The questioner : Okay, now if he is smoking with his right hand, do we forbid him from smoking with his right hand and tell him to smoke with his left?
The Shaykh : We say: Do not smoke at all.
The questioner : He is smoking now.
The Shaykh : Because if we said, "Smoke with your left hand," we would be approving his smoking.
The questioner : No, we do not approve of it. We tell him: If you smoke, smoke with your left hand, because this is from impurity.
The Shaykh : Yes, that is right.
The questioner : But he is smoking it now.
The Shaykh : Meaning, we say, if you must do it, right?
The questioner : Then smoke with your left hand.
The Shaykh : Yes, what do you say?
The questioner : It takes effect.
The Shaykh : This is a case that occurs. I say: This is a good consideration. This is a good consideration.
Yes?
The student: To whom is the condolence offered?
