Best of you

4. "The best of people are those who are best in fulfilling [rights]." [Ibn Mâjah, Sahîh]

Quotes to remember

11. It was narrated that Abu Hanifa said to Dawud al-Taa’i, “Why do you prefer seclusion?” Dawud replied, “To struggle against myself to leave disputing.” Abu Hanifah said, “Attend meetings, listen to what is said, and remain silent.” Dawud said, “I have done so, but I have found nothing heavier than this.”

Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

The Ruling on the Hajj Pilgrim Shortening the Prayer

 


Question:

What is the ruling on the Hajj pilgrim shortening his prayers during his stay for more than four days in Makkah?
Answer:

If the residence of the pilgrim in Makkah is for four days or less, then the Sunnah is for him to pray the four-Rakah prayers as two Rakahs, according to the action of the Prophet (sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam) in the Farewell Pilgrimage. However, if he intended to stay for more than four days, then it is better for him to pray them as four, which is the view of the majority of the scholars.
