Standing in the Presence of the Prophet (s.a.w.)
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Imam Shihab ad-Din Abu al-Fadhl Ahmad
ibn ‘Ali ibn Hajr al-‘Asqalani (r.a.),
Imam Abu Zakariya Yahya ibn Sharaf an-Nawawi (r.a.), and Imam Abu Musa Muhammad ibn ‘Umar al-Asfahani (r.a.),
amongst others, all agree that no one possessed of a heart and mind can object
to standing for the sake of the Prophet (s.a.w.),
and that this is desirable and recommended, not only in the time of the Prophet
(s.a.w.), but until the end of time. Imam
Abu Musa al-Asfahani (r.a.) passed
away in 581 AH, more than five centuries after the time of the Prophet (s.a.w.), and yet stood for him in the
present tense and mentioned seeing him.
