(70) بَابُ ذِكْرِ الدَّلِيلِ عَلَى أَنَّ الشَّطْرَ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ الْقِبَلُ لَا النِّصْفُ،Chapter 70: Evidence that "shatr" here means "direction", not "half"
Hadith 437
اُردوEn
وَهَذَا مِنَ الْجِنْسِ الَّذِي نَقُولُ إِنَّ الْعَرَبَ قَدْ يُوقِعُ الِاسْمَ الْوَاحِدَ عَلَى الشَّيْئَيْنِ الْمُخْتَلِفَيْنِ، قَدْ يُوقِعُ اسْمَ الشَّطْرِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ وَعَلَى الْقِبَلِ أَيِ الْجِهَةِ.
And this matter is of the same kind about which we say that the Arabs use the same name for two different things.
نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، نا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْوَهْبِيُّ ، نا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ، قَالَ : " صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا " ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ : وَالشَّطْرُ فِينَا قِبَلَهُ
Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I performed prayer facing Bayt al-Maqdis for sixteen months in the company of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then he narrated the complete hadith. Abu Ishaq says that Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) said that in our view, « شطر» means direction and side.
