The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Is it permissible to give a reward to someone who is not the one who proposed, but who is helping him?
The Shaykh : Yes, he asks: If a man proposes a woman to another and gives him a reward, this is not called a favor; this is called a reward. There is no harm in it.Sunan Abi Dawud 1672Sahih (Al-Albani) Yes, Ghannam?
The questioner : The story of Shu'ayb, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : They say that he stipulated it for himself.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : It is not for the woman, what do you think?
The Shaykh : And what do you say?
There are two answers regarding this:
The first answer is that our Shari'ah came down with the opposite of this.
The second answer is that it is actually for the woman, because if he takes care of the grazing, the woman is relieved of this and does not graze, so its benefit returns to him.
The questioner : O Shaykh, the hadith:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3730Sahih (Darussalam) The Rafidah use this as evidence for the authority of 'Ali, saying that he is in his position, even in his authority. What is the response to this hadith itself?
The Shaykh : I mentioned to you, the response is the cause of this statement. What is its cause?
That he left him in charge of his family during the expedition of Tabuk, and he (may Allah be pleased with him) was anxious, saying: How can you make me in the position of children and women? So he wanted to please his heart by saying that I made you a successor, just as Musa made Harun a successor.
