regarding the ruling on tamattu' in Hajj?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, what is it that specifies tamattu' here for the Companions, given that when a command comes from the Shari'ah, it is general for the Companions and others?
The Shaykh : Where is the specification?
The questioner : The tamattu' is the tamattu' of Hajj.
The Shaykh : You mean the obligation?
The questioner : Yes, I do.
The Shaykh : The obligation, as I told you, because if these people had not done it, this Shari'ah would have been destroyed, because whoever comes after a Companion would say, "The Companions did not do it, so we will not do it."
The questioner : When the Messenger commanded them, the command was for them and for those who came after them.
The Shaykh : It is known, but for them it was on the basis of obligation, not for the sake of tamattu', but so that this command would not be broken, yes.
