What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenThe Bukhari report that the Prophet removed his izar while carrying stones for the Kaaba, fell unconscious and was never seen naked again is, in Mufti Abu Layth's words, nonsense that disrespects the Prophet, and he dismisses the scholars' attempts to soften it.
In more detail
As an example of disrespect to the Prophet, Mufti Abu Layth reads hadith 364 of Sahih al-Bukhari, placed under the chapter discouraging being naked in prayer and set before prophethood, when the stones were being moved to rebuild the Kaaba. The Prophet is carrying a stone and his uncle Abbas tells him to take off his izar, the wrap the Arabs wore like a sarong, and put it on his shoulders to carry the stones; he does so, falls unconscious, and after that day is never seen naked again. Mufti says this is how the Prophet is repaid, calls the report nonsense, and says the scholars perform gymnastics to claim only part of his thigh was seen, although the report says he was never seen naked after that day and the chapter heading itself concerns nakedness. He says he will show another case of disrespect and looks for which report to go through next.
Position stated
Mufti Abu Layth says the Bukhari report that the Prophet fell unconscious after removing his izar to carry stones for the Kaaba and was never seen naked again is nonsense that disrespects the Prophet, and that the scholars' efforts to soften it contradict its own wording.
“this is how we are repaying the our profits with respect that is nonsense”
