Notes
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ وَمَعْنَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ إِذَا أَشَارَ الرَّجُلُ بِأُصْبُعَيْهِ فِي الدُّعَاءِ عِنْدَ الشَّهَادَةِ لاَ يُشِيرُ إِلاَّ بِأُصْبُعٍ وَاحِدَةٍ
machine translationAbū ʿĪsā said: This is a good, sound, and gharīb hadith (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ gharīb). The meaning of this hadith is that when a man points with his two fingers while making supplication during the testimony (al-shahādah), he should point with only one finger.
