, there is a concern regarding its authenticity; Mujalid is not one who is relied upon; he became confused, and there is weakness in his narration, unless there are corroborating narrations for it. This comparison: "
Whoever chats, he is like a donkeyمَن لغا مثله كمثل الحمار
" is a great matter.
Q: Is it invalid or deficient for the one who touched the pebbles?
A: He misses its virtue, meaning: he has no Friday prayer, meaning: the virtue of the Friday prayer. And he does not repeat it; he is not required to repeat it.
Q: "Whoever chats, he has no Friday prayer"?

Q: The authenticity of the hadith?
