Our Shaykh, regarding the report that 'Ali drank while standing.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Our Shaykh, regarding the report that 'Ali drank while standing.
Another questioner : From the left or from the right, both are [permissible].
Another questioner : It is reported from 'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he drank while standing. So what is the response? I mean, a person cited this hadith.
The Shaykh : Yes, the hadith is in al-Bukhari, but:
"When Hudham speaks, believe her, *** For the truth is what Hudham says."
Since the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited drinking while standing, the matter is concluded. I think we should move on to the next topic.
