Anlam
What is "prevention" (iḥṣār) referring to in this āyah?
Cevap
Imām Ibn al-Jawzī (d. 597/1201) summarized the scholars' opinions in his book "Zād al-Masīr" as follows:
- It only applies to being prevented by an enemy and does not include someone who is ill. [Ibn ʿUmar, Ibn ʿAbbās, Anas, Mālik, al-Shāfiʿī, Aḥmad]. The evidence for this is the phrase "But when you become safe".
- It applies to any hindrance, whether due to illness, an enemy, or any other excuse. [ʿAṭāʾ, Mujāhid, Qatādah, Abū Ḥanīfah]
