Question:
What is the ruling on the Tashabih prayer, and what are the reasons for its validity, or its invalidity if it is not valid?
Answer:
The scholars have differed regarding the hadiths of the Tashabih prayer, and the correct view is that it is not authentic, and that it is an anomalous narration, contradicting the authentic, well-known hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the voluntary prayer, the prayer that Allah prescribed for His servants in its bowing, prostration, and other aspects. Therefore, the correct view is the statement of those who said that it is not authentic, and Ibn al-Jawzi included it in his book of fabricated hadiths.
