Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Should it not be said that glorifying Allah with both hands is better than glorifying Allah with the right hand; because glorifying Allah with both hands is a command, while glorifying Allah with the right hand is an action?
Answer:
The matter is broad in this regard. Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "He liked to prefer the right hand in putting on his sandals, combing his hair, performing ablution, and in all his affairs." And in a hadith narrated by al-Tirmidhi and others: "He would count his glorification of Allah with his right hand." And he commanded some women to count with their fingers. This includes both hands. The matter is broad in this regard.
