EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith encourages us to make an educated guess when we are uncertain about something. We should use our knowledge and wisdom to come up with the best possible answer or solution. After that, we should offer two prostrations in prayer as a way of expressing gratitude for the guidance we have received from Allah. This teaches us that even if we are not sure about something, it is important to put forth our best effort and then trust in Allah's mercy for the rest.

It also reminds us of the importance of prayer in our lives; no matter what situation or difficulty we face, prayer can help us find peace and solace within ourselves. By offering two prostrations after making an educated guess on a difficult matter, it shows that we are grateful for any guidance or help that Allah has provided us with during this time of uncertainty.
