QUESTION:
As Salaamu Alaikum,
Can a person read and teach hadith in the masjid on a mobile phone? Will this be against the sunnah of our Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم?
ANSWER:
Wa Alaikum As Salaam,
The mobile phone is a media where information can be stored and displayed. As such, if one has Ahadith stored on the phone, then it will be permissible to read it and teach from it.
However, it is best to use a book itself which has Ahadith in it, to read and teach from, since the phone is not a book of Ahadith, and the blessedness and sacredness that a book of Ahadith has, will not be found on the phone.
And Allah Knows best
