Summary
The fatwa states that honouring and revering the Prophet ﷺ and whatever is connected to him is encouraged in Islam at all times and in all circumstances. The Prophet's sandal has drawn the attention of scholars, who wrote many works on its features, shape and sketches. Historically, the practice of honouring the Prophetic sandal and seeking blessings through it is said to have begun after the Prophet's passing, as seen in al-Malik Musa kissing and gazing at it while weeping.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Memuliakan dan mentakzimkan Rasulullah ﷺ dan apa-apa yang dikaitkan dengan Baginda ﷺ adalah dituntut dalam Islam pada setiap masa dan keadaan.
