None amongst you should urinate in stagnant water لا يبولنّ أحدكم في الماء الدّائم

The Shaykh : This must be examined: Is the point of origin the same? If it is the same, the more reliable one is preferred, because the rulings, as I said, are mixed, and it is difficult to say that each one narrated it by meaning. But there must be, meaning ... that the point of origin is, for example, from Abu Hurayrah, and then two narrated it from him, and then three, and they differed.

The Shaykh : Yes?

The Shaykh : I say that sometimes they differed from their sheikhs afterwards. Yes, Khalid?
