Is sleeping with the hand raised before dawn a permanent sunnah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Raising the hand near the approach of dawn, is this specific to travel or in every...?
Answer:
Even in the city, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sleep on his right side to rest. If the time was short and he wanted to rest and was able to sleep on his right side, he would do so, because this is closer to not falling asleep. However, not everyone is able to sleep on their hand, but whoever can, it is good if the time is short.
Q: Is walking at night dangerous now, with cars and the danger of the abundance of animals and camels?
A: In any case, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke about his time. If there is danger on the road, one leaves the danger. The Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) intention was the thing that has no danger, so if one comes upon a road with danger, he avoids it.
