In the narration of Hazrat Mu’ammar (may Allah have mercy on him), these words are mentioned:“And a donkey passed in front of the people, but it did not break their prayer.”And in the narration of Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him), these words are mentioned:“I was riding a donkey, so I left it between the rows and I myself joined the prayer, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not scold me (because of this action).”Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that in this hadith it is not stated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saw the donkey passing or grazing in front of the rows. Nor is it mentioned that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was aware of this matter. Therefore, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not order those individuals to repeat their prayer in front of whom the donkey had passed. And this hadith is established and authentic from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that a black dog, a menstruating woman, and a donkey break the prayer. Therefore, until a hadith contrary to this is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), it is not permissible to give a fatwa or adopt an opinion against the established hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
