Sitting in a sunny and shady place

Q: What is the ruling on sitting half under the shade and half under the sun?


A: Sitting under shade and sun at the same time is Makruh (disliked) because the Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade it, as related by Ibn Majah with a good Sanad (chain of narrators). It is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) called it the "Sitting of Satan." (Related by Ahmad and Ibn Majah. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
