Al-Sharḥ al-MumtiʿIbn al-'Uthaymin

Some scholars said that he should supplicate by saying:

“Our Lord, grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”

This is because this supplication is used to conclude supplications. For this reason, the Prophet ﷺ would recite it at the end of each circuit of tawaf, saying between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone:

“Our Lord, grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.” (1)

The view that he should offer whatever supplication is easy for him is preferable to remaining silent, because prayer is an act of worship in which there is no silence at all except for a reason, such as listening to the imam’s recitation and the like.

His statement, “He gives one salam to his right,” means that if he gives the salam facing directly forward, there is no harm in it; however, giving it to the right is better.

The apparent meaning of the author’s words is that it is not recommended to add more than one salam, and this is the position of the school.

The correct view, however, is that there is no harm in giving a second salam, as this has been reported in some hadiths from the Prophet ﷺ. (2)

(1) Narrated by Imam Ahmad (3/411), Abu Dawud (1892), Ibn Hibban, Ihsan edition (3826), al-Hakim (1/455), and al-Bayhaqi (5/84), on the authority of Abd Allah ibn al-Sa'ib, may Allah be pleased with him. Al-Hakim said: “This hadith has an authentic chain of transmission according to the criteria of Muslim,” and al-Dhahabi agreed. (2) This is based on the hadith of Ibn Masud, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: “There are three practices that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to observe but which people have abandoned. One of them is the concluding salutation over the funeral prayer, as in the prayer.” Narrated by al-Bayhaqi (4/34). Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmu (5/239): “Its chain of transmission is sound.”
وقال بعضهم يدعو بقوله: «ربَّنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنة، وفي الآخرة حسنة، وقنا عذاب النار»؛ لأن هذا الدعاء تختم به الأدعية، ولهذا جعله النبي ﷺ في نهاية كل شوط من الطواف، حيث يقول بين الركن اليماني والحجر الأسود: «ربنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنة، وفي الآخرة حسنة، وقنا عذاب النار» (١). والقول بأنه يدعو بما تيسر أولى من السكوت؛ لأن الصلاة عبادة ليس فيها سكوت أبداً إلا لسبب كالاستماع لقراءة الإمام، ونحو ذلك. قوله: «ويسلم واحدة عن يمينه» وإن سلم تلقاء وجهه فلا بأس، لكن عن اليمين أفضل. وظاهر كلام المؤلف أنه لا يسن الزيادة على تسليمة واحدة وهو المذهب. والصحيح: أنه لا بأس أن يسلم مرة ثانية؛ لورود ذلك في بعض الأحاديث عن النبي ﷺ (٢).
(١) أخرجه الإمام أحمد (٣/ ٤١١)؛ وأبو داود (١٨٩٢)؛ وابن حبان (٣٨٢٦) إحسان؛ والحاكم (١/ ٤٥٥)؛ والبيهقي (٥/ ٨٤) عن عبد الله بن السائب ﵁. وقال الحاكم: «هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد على شرط مسلم» ووافقه الذهبي. (٢) لحديث ابن مسعود ﵁ قال: «ثلاث خلال كان رسول الله ﷺ يفعلهن تركهن الناس إحداهن التسليم على الجنازة مثل التسليم في الصلاة». أخرجه البيهقي (٤/ ٣٤)؛ وقال النووي في «المجموع» (٥/ ٢٣٩): «إسناده جيد».
