The ruling on drawing lines in the sand with pebbles
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our sister says in her last question: Did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) say in one of his hadiths: And is it permissible to do this thing now? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that there was a prophet who drew lines, but as for us, it is not permissible for us to draw lines; because we do not know the thing that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did and the thing that Allah permitted. The lines that people do now are a kind of guessing about the unseen, and it is not permissible to engage in them or do them, rather it is obligatory to leave that, yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
