Question:
The hadith in which it is said: Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned it in al-Zad?
Answer:
I do not know of its authenticity, and it appears to be incorrect; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did what was mentioned:
He urinated standing when the need called for it; he went to a people's latrine and urinated standing. If the need calls for it, there is no harm, provided one covers oneself.
As for wiping his face, it is better to leave it off; he should leave off wiping until he has finished his prayer.
And the third is blowing; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to blow in his prostration. There is no harm.
Q: If its chain of narration were authentic, would it be considered anomalous, contradicting the authentic hadiths?
The Shaykh: Yes; if it were authentic, it would be anomalous.
The hadith in which it is said:
Three things are from roughness: that a man urinate standing, or that he wipe his forehead before he has finished his prayer, or that he blow in his prostration
ثلاث من الجفاء: أن يبول الرجل قائمًا، أو يمسح جبهته قبل أن يفرغ من صلاته، أو ينفخ في سجوهAnswer:
