    [1] Muqlah is used to describe “eyeball” – Al-‘Azimabādī said that what is apparent is that it should be Muql without At-Tā at the end, and it is a word used to describe a gum or resin.

Commentary

The Prophet ﷺ forbade drinking while standing, and though he was seen doing so, it is known that he did so on an occasion to make sure the people saw that he was breaking his fast, during the Conquest of Makkah. He ﷺ did not state that the prohibition was abrogated.
