Did you suspend Anas's hadith in the chapter on Witr in *Sahih al-Bukhari*, which is: "He was asked about the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) Qunut, whether it was after or before? He said: After a little."

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, you suspended Anas's hadith in the chapter on Witr in "Sahih al-Bukhari," namely: "He was asked about the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) Qunut, whether it was after or before? He said: After a little." Is the reason for the suspension that the hadith is not authentic, or that it is repeated?

The Shaykh : Excuse me, excuse me, did I ask the question? Did I suspend it?

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : What do you mean?

The questioner : I mean you suspended it in the abridged version and did not mention it, and according to your method, a hadith not mentioned is considered suspended or repeated.

The Shaykh : I am afraid the matter is confused for you. Anas's hadith, the one you are talking about, did I suspend it? Is it in al-Bukhari?

The questioner : It is in al-Bukhari.

The Shaykh: All right.

The questioner : With a chain, and Ibn Hajar mentioned that this hadith and the one following it are suspended. Ibn Hajar.

The Shaykh : Is it in al-Bukhari with a chain or suspended?

The questioner : With a chain.

The Shaykh : Yes, and did I suspend it?

The questioner : I mean I mentioned it in the margin.

The Shaykh : Answer, answer, did I suspend it?

The questioner : Is not this your method?

The Shaykh : You have not answered me. This is the second time I am asking you. Anas's hadith, the one you are asking about, did al-Bukhari narrate it in his Sahih with a chain?

The questioner : With a chain.

The Shaykh : Okay, and did I suspend it?

The questioner : It was not a suspension.

The Shaykh : My brother, I do not suspend what is narrated with a chain. But al-Bukhari's hadiths are divided into two categories: a category with a chain and a category suspended. What is with a chain has a specific sequential number and a large letter, and what is suspended has a specific sequential number and a smaller letter. I do not suspend. So I think the matter is confused for you. You say the book is present.

The questioner : The abridged book.

The Shaykh : Bring it.

The questioner : A small number.

The Shaykh : Bring it, my brother, bring it. I hope the brothers will now take their seats. Take, take your places. No, I am saying take your places. One of you is not better than the others; you are equal like the teeth of a comb. No Arab has superiority over a non-Arab, nor a red person over a black person, except by taqwa.

The questioner : Shaykh, with your permission.

The Shaykh : We are still waiting for the book.

The questioner : ... or until the text arrives.

The Shaykh : It may arrive now, and the speech will be cut off until you settle with me in sitting in this place.
