Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The question: The first message in this episode was sent to the program from al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, al-Manshiyah, by our brother: Dhiy Allah Abdulrahman al-Suwayyan. Our brother has several questions. In his first question, he asks: Did it come from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: ?
The second question is similar to it—Shaykh Abdulaziz—he asks: Did it come from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: We ask you to be kind enough to answer these two questions. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance.
As for what follows: These two hadiths mentioned by the questioner, yes, they were reported, but they are weak and not authentic from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). In fact, the scholars mentioned that they are confused and not authentic from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so one should not rely on what is in them. Yes.
Whoever prays forty times such that he does not miss the takbir of ihram, a certificate of safety from the Fire and a certificate of safety from hypocrisy will be written for him in any mosque.
من صلى أربعين وقتًا لا تفوته تكبيرة الإحرام كتبت له براءة من النار، وبراءة من النفاق في أي مسجدThe second question is similar to it—Shaykh Abdulaziz—he asks: Did it come from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:
Whoever prays forty times in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah, a certificate of safety from the Fire and a certificate of safety from hypocrisy will be written for him.
