The Prayer of Tasabih: Its Chains of Narration Are Weak
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on the Prayer of Tasabih?
A: The scholars have differed regarding the hadith of the Prayer of Tasabih, and the correct view is that it is not authentic; because it is anomalous (shadhdh) and its text is denounced (munkar), and it contradicts the well-known authentic hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding voluntary prayer, the prayer that Allah prescribed for His servants in its bowing, prostration, and so on.
Therefore, the correct view is the statement of those who said it is not authentic, for the reasons we mentioned; and because all of its chains of narration are weak. And success is from Allah.
