			Pease TV
		

			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa sallahu wa sallam Alma Guru
throckmorton Lila alameen Nabina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi edge marine. Welcome to this
week's episode of reflections of Islam. I'm your host abderrahim McCarthy. In this week's episode
we're going to be talking about in shallow Thailand. a day in the life of our beloved Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam we're going to reflect and how the prophets I send them used to live his
life in or his daily life. And obviously, in one or two episodes, we cannot cover the entire Sierra
of our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but at least we can cover a day in his life and
		

			he sought to sell them so we can try to be like him in our everyday lives. And the importance of
studying the Sierra and Islam, you will see that as Allah subhana wa tada said, no poron will not
Kerala confy Rasulullah he Swan Hasina that we have in our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam a good example. And he's the good example. He calls us to good in every aspect of life. So if
we want to be successful, we must follow him Allah He sent out to a cinema, and also how many people
claim that they love the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but it's not enough for you to claim
that you love him. As Allah subhanho wa Taala said in the eye and sort of earlier on will encourage
		

			them to hate Buddha law have a Debbie Rooney come along, to say that if you if you love a lot, then
follow me. Along will love you and He will forgive you for your sins. So you'll see that the real
the scale that we judge the love of a person for a law, or for or for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam is how he follows the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam how he implements the Sunnah of
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in his life or if he does not implement his soon Elisa to
celeb also when you look at how the Silloth from the Sahaba, and those who came after them, how they
used to focus on the importance of the CRR and teaching the sila to their companions to their
		

			students and to their families and their children as well. If you look at the story of even our
best, the Allahu and it said that nobody deliberate but he said he was describing the sittings of
even our best little deal. Oh, and, and he said that we would sit in there and we'll sit with him
almost all night and he would just be talking about the spirit of the Prophet sallallaahu Selim, his
whole city was about the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And it came in another narration about
him not Bestival the Aloha and that he would make sure that every day he would take a portion of his
day, just to teach the Sierra of our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in Alabama and her
		

			saying, Rahim Allah. He said that Guna no alum Mojave, our Sol Sol Allahu alayhi. wa sallam came
acuna no alum Sora minion, and that we would teach them mikaze the MOBA z it means the battles of
the province that Allahu Allah He was seldom, but you'll find in some of the earlier books, when
they say the mahasi they mean the Sierra in general, but they use the word mallozzi be the battles
because a large portion of the prophets life Elisa to celebrate, it was in battles the time Medina,
there were so many battles between the Muslims and the kofod, the non Muslims that they called his
Sierra has his way of life, the mahasi as well. So he said we would teach the seal of the Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, as we teach the sort of the Quran. So this is we teach our children and
we teach them Muslims a sort of the operand, how to memorize it. It's also very important to teach
them the Sierra of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And just because we did not get the
chance to live and be with a prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we as Muslims cannot forbid
ourselves of the chance and the opportunity of living with him and he said to Sam, through his
Sierra, and you'll find the beauty of a seal if you really get into it and you read it and you know
the story
		

			You know, well, you'll feel so parallel sometimes, like you're actually living with the Prophet
sallallahu sallam, and with the Sahaba. And this will help you and being successful and holding firm
to your religion in this dunya as well. And as even as they mentioned, what a mala that if a person
is truthful in his wanting Allah subhanaw taala, wanting to hear after, and wanting to be pleased
with him, that one of the things he should do is that he should read the seer of the prophets I
seldom so as it is if he is with him, and it's Sierra la Salatu was Salam. So let's start the day in
the life of our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the first thing he will do as all of us
		

			do, is wake up in the morning, but the way he would wake up, and why he would wake up, probably it's
much different from the reason and how we would wake up. So the first thing he would do, when he
would wake up, is remember Allah subhanho wa Taala. And if you go back to a lot of the small books
of card, I'll go back to the books of the Sunnah, and see where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasallam mentioned the different car that you see when you get up in the morning when you go to
sleep at night. And you'll see from the things he used to say at least not to Salaam was
Alhamdulillah he led the ohana back them at an hour later like and you're sure he would think Allah
		

			subhanho wa Taala for bringing him back to life after death because sleeping is called the small
death because it's almost like you're dead. So it's almost like a form of death. So think Allah
subhanho wa Taala for giving him life and how many people have gone asleep and they have not woken
up. So he thinks the last panel Watada for giving him another day in his life. And he says what he
knows sure that we know that we are returning to Allah subhanaw taala we will return to Him in the
end. And also an after this, he would start by saying other cars Oh, he will read the last 10 verses
of Allium Ron and other have car and you can find this like I mentioned in the book of of car, as
		

			the scars of Islam have written one of the best books that I would say that I would advise all the
Muslims to have and to read is the wobble asleep by email, email pain, Rahim Allah He mentioned in
the beginning, almost 100 different benefits of victory of remembrance of a law. And he mentioned
all of the all you need in your everyday life and and hamdulillah it's been translated into English
and to other languages as well. And then after that Allah Hassan wassalam, he would start by using
his miswak by brushing his teeth, and all throughout the student of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam
you'll find and several occasions when he entered the house, for example, as it will come when he's
		

			going to read the Quran before salaat when he makes will go also as soon as to use them as suek. And
it's been proven that the miswak is actually much better for the teeth than the toothbrush and the
toothpaste that we use in the world we live in today. Or they use this or that what's important is
that you brush your teeth to get the bad smell out of your mouth. And a lot of people as you
mentioned in past episodes, though, might go to the masjid in the morning. And they have this foul
breath this morning breath and they don't even brush your teeth and they harm the other Muslims when
they young on the smell comes out Oh, the Billa. So I promise I sent him he was very keen on that.
		

			Because he was getting up to pray. He will get up to prayers. It's going to come shortly, the night
prayer. So his focus was having fresh breath. So we can read the Quran and make the the do out with
the what and make his prayer with fresh breath. So he would not harm the angels who are listening to
this foreign as well. And so he will always be in the best status la salatu salam after this,
obviously, he will enter into the bathroom or leave himself during this time. So during this time,
how he would relieve himself. And you'll see that one of the who these one of the Jews, they told
the companions, one of the companions of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam that your prophet has taught
		

			you everything. He wants to make fun of him. They say even how to relieve yourself how to go to the
bathroom? And he said yes, he said there's nothing in this dunya that the prophets I send him even
the bird fly through the air that he has not given us knowledge of. So you'll see that the son of
the promises him is very in detail and how he Muslim must relieve himself. First of all, he must go
into an area where nobody else can see him. You don't do it in the public. Like you see a lot of the
non Muslims also you'll see that in non Muslim societies they have the bathrooms where they stand
up, and they really their selves next to each other. So this is not from Islam. It's not acceptable
		

			for a Muslim to do something like this, you must be in a concealed place where nobody else can see
you. Then he would enter into this place with his left foot saying Do I have a lahoma in the arrow
do we come in and hope they will come?
		

			And
		

			when you look at the importance of seeking refuge with Allah subhanho wa Taala from a chiffon and
why the prophesy centum would seek refuge in the shape long when he went to the bathroom. This is
something that we're gonna learn together and shut up. But after this short break, so stay tuned,
and we'll be right back and shallow Tada.

			Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. Welcome back to this week's episode reflections of
Islam. And we've been talking and this week's episode about a day in the life of our beloved Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And we started to mention how he would enter the bathroom or the place
to relieve himself and it has to be in a concealed place, as we mentioned, and the first thing he
will do is that he will enter with his left foot, and a general principle when it comes to this,
that doing the things that are good or praiseworthy in Islam, that always is with the right side or
the right hand. And you will find that doing when the left is for those things which are sometimes
		

			disliked or they're not as good as the things we do with the right. For example, when you enter the
motion, that's going to come here and enter with your right you're gonna leave with your left. When
you enter into the bathroom, you enter with your left first and you leave with your right. Also,
when you're in the bathroom, when you clean yourself. It is haram in Islam, to clean yourself with
the right hand, you must use the left hand to clean yourself. And this is because it's also harem
and Islam to eat with your left hand because she had been eats with the left hand and this is the
hand that we clean ourselves with. So in Islam we can only eat with the right hand this is the
		

			Sunnah. So the prophet SAW Selim who answer making the dua Allahumma in Nero to become an acceptable
Tibet, he would seek refuge from Allah subhanho wa Taala. From the hope we'll come back at some of
the scholars said from the female and male Jin's so he would seek refuge when he came in allissa to
Salaam, this Muslim must be at all times in all aspects of his life. You'll see now the importance
of seeking refuge with Allah subhanho wa Taala from the shell Thien, when he warns us that a Shabbat
is for is our enemy has to do and he says, What do I do? So you should take him as your enemy. So we
know she had thought that he is our enemy. And also the Sheldonian. They love the dirty places. They
		

			love the places of filth in the Jessa and impurity. And as soon now when we talk about making a stun
jab, and it shows you the beauties of Islam is we have a stingier was it was a stigma. You either
use a dry substance that will clean you or use water of the third way is to use a dry stuff. Just
like for example, we have toilet paper and the days we live in, and you will use this and then use
water after that to clean yourself off. And you will find that this is the best way and the purest
way for a human being to clean himself. And I'll tell you interesting story that happened when one
of the Arab students from with Arab countries who was a Muslim, obviously went to England to study
		

			in the University where he was at, they had a service where you could send your clothes to the
cleaners there and they will clean the clothes and iron them and send them back. So she noticed the
lady working there that this Arab Muslim man had no stains.
		

			His briefs in his underwear. So she knows like the first second time, I guess each time that his
clothes would come, she would take a peek. You know, as they say, curiosity killed the cat. But in
this situation that curiosity actually helped her out a lot. So she would look and she noticed once
again, there's no stains. So Jenny, the Curiosity got the best ever. So she had to ask the guy, she
said, I've been doing this job. She's an old lady. So I've been working here for 25 years, and
cleaning clothes. I have never seen a student who doesn't have stains on his underwear. So he said,
very simply that I am a Muslim, and that our Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam. He taught us how to
		

			cleanse ourselves when we when we relieve ourselves. And this is because we have to stand in our
prayer. And we cannot have an address at the impurities on our clothing. So we must stand in front
of Allah subhanho wa Taala and our prayers and the best of states. So when she heard this, she
immediately became Muslim Subhanallah you see now just from the implementation of someone that
implemented Islam properly, that this was guidance for this lady to enter the religion of Islam.
		

			After this, the province lady Salem, as I mentioned, the way he will wake up or what he will wake up
for the night. It was something different, we wake up now for Southern if we're good Muslims, and if
we're people who have gone astray, people might wake up, they might pray fuzzier, but they will put
the alarm clock on 738 whenever it's time whenever they have to go to work 630 after the time for
fudger and then he will wake up and get ready and pre budget before he goes to the province lay
silom he was getting ready for something very important. When Allah subhana wa tada called him.
Yeah, you had Muslim mill, the one who has been wrapped up he is calling him and he says to me,
		

			Laila Illa, karela nyssma, who own Cosmo Padilla to get up and to pray in prayer. And he said any
half the night, or more or two, what even less, so process um, he would pray half the night
sometimes. And sometimes you would pray a little bit more. And sometimes he would pray a little bit
less. But he was busy during the night. What in the prayer, and this is what it was his way that he
would always pray as it came in the heat of Ayesha 11 rockets. It came in handy, typically our best
13 but the norm for the son of the Prophet, so they send him wants to pray 11 rockets nightly, and
he would never leave this alayhi salatu was Salam. So he will get up and he would pray the night
		

			prayer. And it was actually a very lengthy per rather long prayer. Now, as I mentioned, we're
talking about half the night, or the majority of the night are a little bit less than half. So he
would be praying a you know, maybe six hours a night, five hours a night, four hours a night,
depending on the night, you know, three hours would differ from from from time to time, but it was a
lengthy prayer as it came in. And in the hadith of Ayesha and a perfect prayer. As she said, we'll
do one last test and I'm totally have a host Neha on how long it was and how beautiful the prayer
was at least salatu salam. And it also came in handy to show that she said to him when she saw him
		

			praying such a lengthy and strenuous prayer, she said, do you do this? walk out the door for Allah
Holika Mata kata woman Mendham. becau mata her? Do you do this in your past and future sins have
been forgiven? He said, Allah kuno abdon Shakira, Then should I not be a servant, who is thankful
for lawsuit panelboards Allah. And now, when we talk about being thankful for law, what do we think
we might be thankful on our tongues, but the the real way to be thankful for loss of power with
Allah for his name, as far as blessings, is through our actions. And you'll see this is the way the
prophet SAW instead of did it with the night prayer, he knows that he is the best of all of mankind.
		

			He's the see that even Adam, and he knows that that Allah subhanho wa Taala has forgiven his past
sins and his future sins as well. And he knows the true way to be thankful is through offering as
much voluntary, acts as possible, even though it was a must. He had to pray the night prayer, but to
make it as lengthy as possible, and he says why he said, I've done chokehold on that, why not be a
servant who is thankful allihies salatu wa sallam. And when you look at his night prayer, at least
that was the lamp, and that which we gain from the night prayer as Muslims. First of all, this is
one of the things that we mentioned in another series. The importance of the night prayer is that it
		

			what how it affects our Eman because it gives us the true occulus it gives the true sincerity and
all of our acts of worship. And it strengthens our mind greatly because nobody sees these acts of
worship except for a loss of panocha Watada, not like the five daily prayers when everybody sees you
praying it. So the class is not at the same level. Also, it teaches us the act of getting up at
night, it's actually a form of jihad, because it's not easy to get up and pray at night. So it's
this type of very bad this type of act of worship, and actually teaches us to be very strong.
Muslims are very strong in our emotion and in our faith in our religion of Islam, because we are
		

			striving for Allah subhanaw taala so the strings are greatly also when you see, the prophet SAW
Selim, how he commanded his companions and then we'll advise them after that, too.
		

			The night prayer because of how it will affect them in their mind. And we see the effect of the
implementation of Islam by the Sahaba. After that as well. After this, the provinces tell him he
will pray the two rockets of fudger after the Denver fudger he would pray the two rockets of
failure, and then he would sleep on his right side and take a little rest. Not really sleep just
gonna take a little rest and supine while you see the ache madness
		

			is that we're human. We're human in nature. So we need to rest and you'll find even during the day,
sometimes when you're working as it came to head deep below fitness, European law to appeal to take
a ruler to take a small nap because the Shelton, they do not take rest during the day. So you want
to be different from them. This doesn't mean that we have to sleep five hours during the day or even
an hour. If you just sometimes just take 10 minutes, sometimes even two minutes, you just get a rest
you'll find that you'll get up and you'll be full of energy. So that's what the prophesy centum will
do. After a long, strenuous Night of the night prayer. He would take this small rest before he would
		

			leave and go out for selected fudger Elisa said I'm not sleeping, just resting. So that's important
that we benefit from that also in our lives. When the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam will leave
for the masjid. He would say Allahumma JAL vlbw Nora, he asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to feel his
heart, he would ask him to give him
		

			a llama jolly Nora that he will ask Allah to fill his heart with nor and to give him light and to
put light in the front of him in the back of him on the side of him also, so the whole life, the
meaning of the do is that your whole life will be no light from Allah subhanho wa Taala and then he
will make the do i upon entering the masjid when he would say Bismillah and he would seek refuge in
Allah subhana wa tada from a chiffon. And then he would say Allah if tally of waba rotomatic he
asked a lot to open his doors and mercy for him, because he is now entering the message. And the
message is the place of Rama and the place of Rama, the place to have your sins forgiven the place
		

			of worship. And for the importance of this in Islam, the prophets of Salaam used to ask Allah
subhanho wa Taala to open his doors and mercy for him when you insert and then he would answer with
his right foot as you mentioned before, and upon leaving, he would leave with his left foot and he
will make the Do I have karoge leave in the masjid, which is also to say Bismillah and then he would
ask Allah subhana wa Taala he will seek refuge from Allah from Shivani escolar sumanta, Allah to
Allah Jimenez, Luca been public, you ask Allah from his father from his favor, because now when
you're leaving the masjid, this is when you're going to focus on the affairs of the dunya on working
		

			and making money. So you ask Allah subhanho wa Taala from his favor or for his favor, so you only
have your risk and that which is Hillel, and you have the trophy, the blessing from Allah subhanho
wa Taala and the capability Allah enables you to be successful and all of your business
transactions. Once you leave, after the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would pray selected
fudger it's been confirmed that he would sit in his same sitting remembering the last panel without
in the same city that he had prayed in. And that's why I came into Hades when he said that if you
sit in your masala, the police where you prayed said the budget. And you were obviously sitting
		

			there until the shuttle until the sun completely comes out. And then you pray to rakaats that you
get the edge of aroma, that you get the measure of aroma and this no doubt is a great reward. And
this is encouraging the Muslim during this time, especially to what to reflect or reciting the Quran
during this time because this the Quran will feature the work of the real site in the Quran after
the budget is one of the most blessed at times. And you'll see through experience that if you try to
read your your daily portion of the Quran, your juzo or two or three, whatever you read in one day,
that if you do it during this time that you will have Baraka blessing in your day. Also, you will
		

			have finished the portion that you want to read. But if you put it off all the time, that you will
not be successful, and reading that portion how many people and it's just something personally, that
I see all the time with myself and I see with my brothers as well, when we sit down and we read the
portion that we want to read from hour to hour or from from a mirage of the hill to read it at that
time that we are successful during that day.
		

			But if we put it off during that day, we said we're going to read it later we're going to go rest of
this time we're going to do this at that time, that perhaps we do not read the Quran, all during
that day, unfortunately, or we read very small portions of the Quran during that day will long
		

			after this, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would make the car The car of a Subbu of
remembering Allah subhanho wa Taala during the morning time, and these cars are liquid the car is so
bad that they're very, very important in the life of a Muslim. And you'll see that the Senate are
pious predecessors they used to focus on benefiting from these car and cheerfully slam him Tamia
hemolyzed. I mentioned our his email he mentioned that he will also sit
		

			In his area until like almost sometimes mid date, just remembering Allah subhanho wa Taala and shows
them Tamia. He has this teacher of the Imam even though fame, Rahim Allah. And he looked at him even
though he said one day that even told me I looked at him. And he said, barely This is Maggie that
very This is Maggie that this is my, this is what nourishes me, meaning this is what nourishes my
soul, because the human being is created from body and from soul. And this is what nourishes him. So
we need these times for a Bader and this time after fudger, like I mentioned, it's a very special
time. So we should focus as Muslims on benefiting from this time to stay in the masjid to read the
		

			Quran into the schroeck, thus benefiting from reading the Quran from the to our from making the ad
carosa. So we do not forget them, and also benefiting ourselves from having the reward of praying
the tour guides after the shadow of the Shams after the shadow of the sun. When the sun fully sets
after that they will get the reward of going, firmer as it came in the hadith of our beloved Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and we still have more in the day in the life of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam but unfortunately, we're out of time. So until next week's episode, Alo alum was a
