Requesting Someone to Supplicate after Concluding a Lesson

by the

Muhaddith, Shaykh, Allamaa’
Muhammad Nasiruddeen al-Albaani


Translated by
Abbas Abu Yahya

Shaykh Albaani –rahimumAllaah- quoted an Athar of Ibraheem an-Nakhai in ‘Kitab al-ilm’:


‘They (the Companions) used to sit and study knowledge and goodness, then they would disperse and would not seek forgiveness from one another, they would not say: O so and so, make Dua’ for me.’

The Shaykh commented saying:


‘Which means that some of the Companions’ -Radi Allaahu anhum- making Dua’ for others after the completion of a lesson or on ending study was not their action. This is a Bida’. Similar to this is when a shaykh leads his companions in supplication and they follow the supplication after him, because that is something which becomes a fitnah (trial) for that shaykh and lead him to marvel at himself.’

All Praise belongs to Allaah, may His peace
and blessings be upon our final
Prophet Muhammad, his
family, his companions
and all those who
follow his
guidance.
