Chapter 307

The desirability of making one’s speech clear for those addressed

Remembrance 1
WE RELATE IN the Sunan of Abū Dāwūd that ‘Ā’ishah Honorific symbol said: “The speech of the Messenger of Allah Honorific symbol was distinct, so that everyone who heard him understood him.” [1].
We relate in the Ṣaḥīḥ of al-Bukhārī that Anas Honorific symbol narrated that when the Prophet Honorific symbol said something [particularly important] he would repeat it thrice so that it could be understood; and when he came to a group of people and greeted them, he would greet them thrice. [2].
