Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi or Baraka wa salam at the Sleeman
cathedral Ilario Mateen Amma bird,
we continue the, the salaat. From the portion about when we're
sitting down
we spoke about how to use the fingers, how to raise the fingers.
We talked about the different ways of doing that.
Now although we're supposed to look at the place we do such the
way we do frustration when we're standing up in the sitting in the
sitting posture,
we do something different. There's a hadith related from Abdullah
hypnosis beta, or the Allah one in which he said that Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he saw Rasulullah performing his
prayer.
And he says law Your job is to bizarro who is shorter who
his gaze did not go beyond his gesturing, which means his, his
gaze was confined to where his fingers were. Which means that
when we're sitting down and we're, when we're sitting down in the
sitting posture will be will, you'll be looking more towards
your finger in your lap as opposed to further up beyond that. So
that's the only time you look differently and also in ruku. When
you're in frustration, you actually look at your feet. So
that's that's another difference. This hadith is related by a Buddha
route. Abdullah Agnes Zubaydah the Allahu Anhu what he says that's
related by Imam Abu Dawood.
Now, there's even a hadith about should the Tisha hood be read
aloud or silently, even that's not made up that is in a hadith. So
Abdullah Masuda the Allahu Anhu relates that it is from the Sunnah
a, your shahada that that the Shia which should be read silently
right? So as you said with everything perfectly within the
solid you've got a hadith Yes, some Hadith may be weak. But when
you don't have a hadith when you don't have a say Hadith about a
particular thing, then you will have to take the weak one is
better than making something up and using your own logic to decide
on what to do. This one This one from Abdullah Masuda the Allahu
Anhu is related both by Timothy and a Buddha out in the in the
German and the Muslim.
Then it's related from Abdullah Omar the hola Juan that you know,
after the second record, you've done your Tisha with a shadow La
ilaha illallah wa shadow and I'm having that I'm Devorah pseudo,
then you're supposed to stand up. When you stand up there should you
raise your hands now? So it's related from Abdullah Muhammad Ali
Allah and that when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
entered the solid he raised his hands towards his chest. When he
raised his head from the Roku, he did not do this.
Now I believe the Masuda I believe no matter the Allah on this one is
related from him that he did not he did not realize he did not
again raise his his hands after the the search or after the second
account rather
than in the last two records. Now let's clarify this.
What should you read in the last in anything beyond the second
record? So if it's a Muslim prayer, three records if it's a
winter prayer, if it's other prayer or for God, Sunnah prayer,
what do you do in the last two records in the third and fourth
record? What do you do? So, the ruling is that in a fourth prayer,
it is only wajib to do a Fatiha and a surah in the first tour
because in the third or the fourth record, it's not wajib to do a
Surah or a Surah Fatiha it's sunnah to do just so little Patea
which means that if in the third record somebody just got up and
stood there
for a few seconds and went back into record that Salah would be
valid there but there'll be missing a sooner so it's against
the sunnah to do it but the salah would be valid during you don't
even have to do that as well, but it's not. I mean, I mentioned in
this not that it'd be done just as a ruling, okay? Because it's a
sunnah to do it.
That's in any form of the prayer. The third and the fourth rock arts
karate is not worship is sunnah to do just Fatiha. However in every
other prayer that includes the three rockets of worship water,
and any photocard sunnah that you do.
You have to do Kira in all of the records. And the reason is that
and this is a bit technical, that even when you're doing a forecast,
Sunnah prayer, in reality, what you're doing is you're reading two
times to put together
so any sooner a Sunnah prayer is actually supposed to be a tour of
God prayer, but there's been allowed that you put two together,
two of them together two heads of it together. So when you get up
for the third or
Cut that's why I call him somewhat irrelevant. You can actually even
repeat your T shirt in the third record of a Sunnah prayer, because
you're actually starting a new prayer
right.
What also that means a few other issues that are that are just
mentioned it is that if you are
in a fourth prayer your intention needs to be very specific.
I am making three records of Witter. Sorry, I am making three
records of Maghrib four buckets of fourth of the heart behind this
Imam, it has to be very specific. If the imam is reading
the Torah and or us or let's say and you've come in and you haven't
read the authority yet.
In the Hanafi school, you're not allowed to make photocopies of God
prayer behind the Imam making photocopies of Asri your
intentions need to be the same in the Shafiq is that's allowed.
As far as I know, it's allowed in the Sharpies and Malik is because
they've got a slight separation between the Imams intention and
the follows intention in the Hanafi school. With the Imam the
intentions need to be the same especially in a form of prayer.
Also, it's so specific that let's just say that your normal Imam His
name is Imam Musa. Right your Imams name of your Masjid. You
came in one day and you wanted to be extra specific and you said I
am making these photocopies of your prayer behind this Imam Musa
Allahu Akbar. And suddenly it appears that it's Imam Yusuf was
reading your Musa wasn't there that day so Imam use of and read
your Salah to not be valid behind him.
Right? Why did you mention his name, you didn't have to, you just
say behind this Imam, that's enough. Right? Because the
follower needs to have an intention for the Imam
that he's praying behind an Imam, for him to be connected with the
Imam. But the Imam doesn't need an intention for the follower to be
following him.
So that takes us to another issue.
If you're making Torah cuts of your fajr prayer, somebody's
complaints, you're making your Torah cuts or fajr prayer,
technically speaking, they can tap you to let you know that they're
gonna join you and you start reading loudly and they can follow
you. And that's actually superior to do than to read separately.
Right? This is if you're doing your own prayer, if you were late
for let's say, bye to the gods, and you pray to with the Imam,
then you stood up. Now you are what you call a mosque book,
meaning you've missed some records with the Imam, you know, left
behind. So now you're going to complete your tour of God
separately, right?
In this case, if somebody wants to follow you, they can't in the
Hanafi school is not allowed because you are not a complete
Imam because you actually finishing off what you are behind
doing with it. And so you're kind of like half praying yourself in
half with the Imam Do you see what I'm saying? Whereas in the Shafi
school, that would be allowed as well.
Right. So that's why what you will see is that there will be some
people who follow a different method, they'll they may come and
tap you in you may be a massage book.
Now you just have to carry on praying as you're praying
normally, to give them an indication that I'm not going to
be an imam. But if they want to follow you that's up to them. You
don't have to worry, don't go and argue with me. You can't follow me
in the Hanafi school, they can't follow you. But they might be
following a different mother we might be permissible for them. So
you just pray your own salad. You know, it's like your carriage they
just they just joining sorry, you're the engine they just
joining the carriage. In fact, there was a person who came late
the Prophet sallallahu sallam said in a hadith who can make sadaqa on
him
who can be charitable, and that the way to do that was who can
make an awful prayer with him so that he can get a Jamar, he will
lead the prayer you can make nothing. Now, when I said that
your salad has to be the same as the Imams. If it's inferior, then
it's fine, which means I can make enough little prayer behind the
Imams for the prayer. So in our prayer, if I've already read my
thoughts, and they do it your mind now I can join in as a Knuffle
prayer. That's fine because my salad is inferior. It's lower than
a fourth prayer. But I can't do a different prayer to his. Do you
see what I'm saying? If it's a fourth fourth, that's the
difference. So now, in afforded the prayer in the third and fourth
regard only Fatiha is sunnah not watching or fault but in every
other type of solid circle Fatiha and a surah is wajib in all of it.
So in a photocard sunnah as well because for God's sunnah is
actually two plus two.
Right? In the Hanafi school acquainting Mount Abu Hanifa you
can do up to eight records together.
Like if you wanted to do a lot of Knuffle prayer, and you didn't
want to stop in between they he allows up to eight records like
you know you just sit in the shower and get up saying that the
show get up after every two records and the last one you
finish off, like a marathon prayer. Right? But it's not
advisable best is to do it in two and two interval press except
where it's mentioned in the Hadith that rose
On the forecast before the forecast before answer that's
mentioned clearly, because there's a hadith which mentions that
Professor Larson said whoever is regular on 12 extra cards, and he
mentioned it as four before or two after, and two after maghrib and
two before Fajr.
Right. So that's, that's a that's a different issue.
So here's the deal for in the form of prayer where you don't have to
do Fatiha and a surah. In the last two records, it's related from Abu
Qatada or the Allah one.
That the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to read in the
lower pray in the first two records with Fatiha and a surah.
And in the last two records used to read justify to
write and that hadith is related by Bukhari and Muslim.
Then the dua for after the Shahada. You know, we do the show
within the last record and we read Salawat on the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam.
So, although it's a sunnah to recite the Salawat, and among
Salallahu Salam in the Hanafi school, it's fun to do it in the
Shafi school. That's so important, so don't ever miss the Salawat.
And of course, that Allahu Allah Salam, if you really have to make
a short prayer you could just about just leave the door after
it. That is optional, but the Salawat and the Prophet sallallahu
DeLucia Eve, as you call it, Allah Allah, Allah Muhammad, that
particular one, you should read that as a very strong sunnah.
Because there's a hadith that's related by necessity. In which
field Allah ignore obeyed are the Allahu unsaid that Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam heard somebody who was making dua in a
solid, but he did not praise Allah subhanaw taala and neither did he
make the sun or what neither did he do Allahumma Salli ala
Muhammad. So Robert Allah some said I jilted you, hello, Sally.
You've rushed your prayer almost slowly. Then he the prophets,
Allah some taught him and there was another person who actually
did everything otherwise I was him hurt him and he said to him, or
the route to jump was self taught, which means make dua your door
will be accepted, ask for whatever you want, you will be given it so
there's a great benefit of doing that. Now. There are many Hadees,
which we'll cover later, about dua after Salat, being accepted as
Salah dua battle back to bat the doors after the prescribed
prayers, they are considered to be an accepted dua. So whether you do
them together, whether you do them separately loudly or silently do
them, because it's a time when it was accepted. You don't feel like
doing the offer yourself do do offer me do do offer your father,
your mother, your family, the Muslim world, they need it.
Because it's like everybody's given a ticket. Right? You've got
a ticket to go and get a free free drink not Redbull you know free
drink, right? Decent drink. And
he's like, I don't know how to use it is people are gonna call you
crazy. You got a free drink, man. Now here you're getting a free do
Ah. So do it. Even if it's just simply because you see so many
people that finish this thought and we'll just walk off a can't
wait for the amount of finishes and I'm wanting to Allah and
they're gone.
It's really ridiculous. I mean, it's time of acceptance. Make the
dua for yourself. Just sit down and just just say something, just
raise your hands. You don't have to raise your hand just do
something. Don't miss that time. Very important. So the majority of
erla for Muslims and everybody they have taken the understanding
that this dua is referring to after the Salah. This is the
opinion of the majority ignore Tamia. That's why you will see
people who claim to follow him no Tamia, Rahim Allah, you will see
that what they do is they don't make much dua after solids,
because even a Tamia and even their claims opinion was that the
DUA that's supposed to be accepted as in the solid at the end.
Right, so after the Salawat and Prophet salallahu Salam, then you
do an extra DUA and you know, whatever do you want you do it
then, but the majority of the relevant except, you know, a very
few, like even the Tamia, they say that it's after the solitary
speaking, although there is a dua that's accepted inside the prayer
as well. But he just restricted all within the prayer. We say no,
it's after the prayer.
Now, what are the doors that are recited? Right, who read Allah who
reads Allahumma inni LOM to NFC Holman? Cathy robola Who is that
one?
Okay, then who reads
Robbie John Nemo Kima Salah to into Reethi Rapana with a couple.
So what do the rest of you read?
Which are that was the guys read? Somebody want to volunteer?
Robina attina Freedonia hacer una Villa de hacer? That's right. So
there are a few mentioned the two popular ones are Robbie Gianni
mochi masala during the reality of Allah make me one Hooper.
ohms the prayer and from among my, my progeny, my children, Oh Allah,
Oh my Lord and accept the DUA and Oh ALLAH forgive me, oh my Lord
forgive me and my parents and all of the believers, the day when the
reckoning will take place, and that one is it's a dua from the
Quran related Surah Ibrahim it's $1 from the Quran related in
as mentioned in sort of Ibrahim. Now there's another dua which is
Allah Khomeini Lorem turnoff Siegelman Kathira that one is
related by Imam Buhari from Abu Bakr Siddiq, or the Allah one.
That Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam taught me a dua that I should make
in my salad, right which is Allah Khomeini Valentina Siegelman
cathedra when I offered with the Luba, he learned and because that
one is mentioned specifically like that, that he taught me a DUA to
make in my salad, that would probably be the most superior one.
However, you can read all of them. So I would definitely do this one
Allah Khomeini's on him to Neff CE. O Allah, I have oppressed
myself Ruhlman. cathedra I have oppressed myself greatly
abundantly while I have you to do but illa Anta Nobody but You
forgive sins, fulfill Lee Forgive me McPhee rotten such a
forgiveness from yourself mean indica. What harmony in the candle
awful Rahim and have mercy on me for you are the most forgiving. So
I would definitely learn that DUA and make dua with their opener
Athena as well. I'd make dua with others. So you know, whatever you
got time for, but at least do one. And this seems to be the superior
one, though, you can clearly do the other ones as well, there's
not a problem.
Now another one. And I think if you I've had this question asked
to me by a few people, how do you follow the Imam? The Imam is to be
followed. That's the whole purpose of it. That's why we got one
person up there being followed. How do you follow Him? Because
when you're talking about the logical possibilities of how you
could follow somebody, right? If you get a bit adventurous, you
could actually go before them. Right. The other possibility,
these are logical possibilities. Another possibility is that you
are synchronized with them. So he goes down and you go down
together, but you have to rehearse that one. Right? Like, you know,
like a dance moves or something, you know, like everybody, okay, we
go down, we go up. So that's synchronized. That's another
logical possibility. And the other possibility is that you do it
after them. And then there will be some possibilities in between that
you kind of do it just after them completely after them. Like for
example, you could say Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah Salam
aleikum wa rahmatullah. Right. And then the then the mokhtari says it
after that, oh, it could be that Imams start saying Astra Mahican
Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.
Today say receive a packet.
It's in the Shafi school. There is an opinion about that. So if you
do see somebody saying somebody's going to lie, or careto don't get
freaked out.
Right, because it is an opinion in another matter, although the
strongest opinion is Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah and don't
ever and then even worse still, you see somebody you're praying
behind somebody, and this is where he does a Salam or Aleikum.
Or Assalamu Aleikum, you're waiting for the other one, you
won't come.
That happened in March in Morocco. I knew it was the Maliki opinion.
They've got both salaams as well. But this is the opinion that they
follow in Mauritania. They follow this in Morocco as well. You're
behind the Imams and Assalamu alaykum that's it?
And did you just think like what happened? Right? But that's fine.
That's, that's another opinion. It's quite interesting. I mean, if
you're going to sit there and get angry as I need to go and show him
a sahih Hadith,
that's when he gets problematic. You think they will stupid or
something that they don't know. They don't have an evidence,
literally, you know, these people who go around in a militant way
going and correcting people like this. They just think everybody's
foolish man. You know, their forefathers were all idiots that
they they taught them this really bad you know, nobody knew how to
pray for 1000 years and now we're coming and we're going to
enlighten the world.
So you will see all of this don't always ask. Right? It is us don't
jump to conclusions. You know, it's like you know, you can't
blame some people like for example, in the villages back in
India, for example, one person must have said Amin aloud.
Now, all Hanafy is and suddenly somebody saying Amin aloud they
thought this person is a heretic, they turn to Marasco, like, you
know, beat him up, what's the what's he doing? Right? They don't
know. You know, they don't know. It's different. I remember when I
was studying in India, we had some Shafi students, because there
although the majority of India is Hanafi, but there are in the
south, there are many cafes like in
in Madras, and Kerala maybe and Sri Lanka and also in a place
called kochen, which is in Maharashtra which is just below
Bombay.
So we had some students from their studying in a Hanafi madrasa and
this man, this particular one, I remember him, he was a very
staunch Shafi in a house full of Hannity's. So he would be really
Shafi, which means in the salaat he'd be the only one saying, mean
aloud. But he'd do it purposely to show who he is. On one occasion,
the in one of the later prayers of the day, the principal, he grabbed
him and he said, You didn't pray Fudger today?
Is I did I came for Fudger. And he goes, No, you did not come.
You did not prefer with the Jamar today. He said, I did I did. How
did he find out? There was no louder. I mean, so he set himself
up,
which is all fine. I'm just saying this is just to keep you guys
awake. Right? It's all fine. So entertaining. It's all
interesting. Mashallah, right? It's fine. Right?
I remember once,
in America, when I when I'd be given the hope that there'd be
some people who may come late, and they come towards the end of the
hotel, and then they stay standing. So I used to get really
angry. Why do they say Can they sit down? Why are they standing up
for? Can they sit down?
Only later when I was actually looking at some issue? I found
that in the Shafi school, if you come late, and the hotbar is going
to finish soon, you stay standing. Right? You don't sit down in the
Hanafi school you sit down.
When you don't know you see that's what is it. There's a saying in
Arabic, which says a nurse who are the only major Hebrew people are
enemies of what they are ignorant of. So it's always a good idea to
find out. And if they've got evidence of hamdulillah yes, if
somebody doesn't have evidence, they're doing things by ignorance,
then you should teach them but you do it in a nice way.
So we're going back to the issue of how to follow the Imam.
So let's take the issue or any issue of salats. He goes in Roku,
you go in roku.
What is not permissible is that you go before the Imam.
So you one of our teachers, he said that he was doing Dharavi
somewhere. So he had all of these older people behind them. And what
they used to do is, you know, when an imam reads especially in
taraweeh, they when they finish when they're about to finish
reading the portion before they're going to go and record they
normally kind of stretch the ending, you know, well, early in.
And so you kind of have a specific tune at the end, signaling that
this is the end of my recitation, I'm about to go into roku. So this
will jump into Roku before the Imam went down. Now he's thinking
to himself, you know, how am I going to sort these people out?
Because they want it one step ahead of him. So one day, what he
did was he's reading
and Amin to
Solari comm how seabone versus LM una que Furner, the devil went
down, and he carried on.
So that sorted them out. So then they were careful the next time,
right. I think he told them a few times, but they just won't listen,
they just, you know, took what I had said that is mcru. To do that
could also become invalidating where you really go ahead of the
Imam, for example, the follow goes into the Imam before the Imam.
If the Imam also goes in there and they, they catch each other there,
then it's valid. It's mcru undesirable but it's valid. But if
the if the mokhtari goes there, and as the Imam is going down, he
gets up and you know, he's like one ahead, his salad is
invalidated.
Like you're trying to be the Imam now from the back backseat driver.
Right? So that would be invalid. If you catch the Imam and the Imam
catches you in the ruku catches up with you as such, right, then your
Salah is salvaged. But it's my crew to do that. Now, the second
option is synchronously, but that's impossible. I mean, that's
very difficult to do. How would you know exactly when the Imam is
going and where he is at that position? That's very difficult.
That was a logical possibility. You should always go after the
Imam. Now the question is you have to wait until he finishes and he
goes in then you go or can you start going after he goes and kind
of, you know, follow him. You know, when is he starts going and
then you start going. The other one is you he goes down then you
go down? Well he says Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah salamati
Guatemala and then you say, sir, I'm only going up so I'm going to
go on to
that other option is a cinematic cinematic, you know, you're kind
of behind them, like the pace behind him. So all of that is
permissible.
But do not go before him.
That's why they actually say that the Imam should say salaam fast
because if they're doing a long Salaam and the muck that is
before the Imam then he's going before the Imam Do you see that?
Just to be honest, you should always do it after because you
know not
Every month perfect and you know it just to be safe you don't want
to go be hit before the Imam otherwise you lose your reward of
the Salat and this is related from Anasazi Allah one. He says that
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam on one occasion, performed
prayer with us for a Matata salata. When he finished his
prayer, he turned towards us faced us and he said a Yohannes he must
have noticed that there are people who are going before the Imam, he
said, Are you a nurse in the imam
or people I'm your Imam. Follow this bill Cooney Bill RUCO II will
be sujood what happened to me while I will insert off do not go
ahead of me
Do not go ahead of me in ruku or sujood or standing or in turning
away meaning in salah
I this is related by Muslim so that's where we learn from that
you should not go before the Imam you should go after the email
especially in the salam that's where people make a lot of
mistakes. Right? So you should should go after the email.
And it's related from Abdullah Masuda the Allah one which is
hadith of Timothy, that it was a Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah As
Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah that is what was recited them. Right.
So the wabarakatuh is a weak opinion. And according to the
Hanafi is just a semi legal one. Salah will also be a weaker
opinion, but they've got the evidences. How much do you turn
even that's mentioned?
Because you know, some people they say sorry,
right.
It's turning to such a degree that your cheek can be seen by the
people behind because in the Hadith, which is related by sunnah
necessity from Abdullah University, the Allah one is that
he used to say a salamati Castellammare had the Euro baya du
haut de until the whiteness of his cheek would would be seen.
I'm 11 aside he relates to this from his father from Rasulullah
sallallahu as well that I could see his cheek so is a full term.
Now. You're saying a Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah who you think salam
to
it's not like some way of getting out of the prayer, we actually
think that we're saying salaam when you say salaam to the right
you intend whoever's praying towards your right or the angels
to your towards your right. And you making salaam to the left,
consciously that's what you should be intending. It's just not a
formula for coming out of the prayer with that you don't know
what it means. But you make an intention with it. It's related in
Buhari that Abdullah Muhammad or the Allah who used to consider it
Mustafa that when the Imam makes Salam, those behind him also makes
up
you know, between in Ossur and Fajr, the Imam is it turns around
because there's no sunnah after fisherton Assa right.
And also to clarify when I said earlier, that if somebody still
has to pray for the Jamaat, or there's another drama that takes
place, can you just join in as a Sunnah prayer, a natural prayer
for yourself, if you've already prayed your fourth grade, because
in the Hanafi school, you can't make up for the prayer TWICE,
TWICE, unless you've got problems with the first one where it
becomes necessary to repeat it. Whereas in the Shafi school, it's
allowed to do to pray to do a to do to praise one after the other
if you felt like it. But in the Hanafi school, you can't, because
it's showing insignificant for the first one. So they're saying
you've done one, you should do it properly. Right?
So having said that, if you've made your Fajr and then a federal
Gemma is gonna take place, can you join in? In federal you can't.
in Doha, you can in answer you can't. And in MongoDB, you can't,
you can in Asia, so you can only join in into into salats, Ra and
Asia because there's nothing after the stress so you can make an
awful but if you're joining in with Muslim, there is no such
thing as a three record knuffel prayer so you can't generate the
Imam as a knuffel if you've already done yours, and in Fajr
after fajr there's no certain there's no Knuffle prayers, it's
my crew. And after after it's my crew to do Knuffle prayers as well
all based on narrations as well. Right so you can't do it and
you'll just have to sit and wait in the in those cases.
There's numerous doors that are mentioned after the Salah, which
we should do. And
the famous one is Allahumma Anta Salam o Minca Salam Tabata Jalali
one o'clock
so even in mcgarrybowen, the you should read at least that much
then stand up and you can do your DUA afterwards. You can do to us
straightaway, or you could do it after your Sunnah prayers. In some
countries, there's a tradition of doing it after the summers, and in
some countries a tradition of doing it straight after they're
both valid, though in the Hanafi books or FIQ. Where it mentions is
that a person should get up to Allahumma de Salamanca salaam then
get up and do your Sooners and then do the two hours afterwards,
but they're both fine.
And another famous DA is La ilaha illallah wa who la sharika lah who
will will call Al hamdu. The who are the coalition in Cardiff,
which means
There is no God except Allah alone. He has no partner for him
is the Dominion for him is all praise and he has ability over all
things Allahu Allah money anima out to eat whatever Martini mama
and actually in fact with Elijah demon cultured of Allah, there's
nobody to prevent what you give. And there's nobody to give what
you prevent. And the person who has substance that will not
benefit him from you in any way. If you don't want him to benefit
from that. That's a dua related by Imam Bukhari.
There's a hadith narrated by Imam Tirmidhi from Abu Mamata the hola
Juan he was asked ya rasool Allah, which dua is most listened to, are
you a smart which one is most listened to by Allah and thus he
you know, he accepts
called a Joe for laden? Arthur what DuBose dubara, Salah Salawat
in October in the last portion of the night, and equivalent to that
after the fourth press. So remember when I said if don't
waste that opportunity? Now, there's a big issue about is it
permissible to raise your hands when making law there's some
people they just can't allow people to do that. It's something
hurts them when they see somebody raising their hands into Ah,
right. Those people are normally people who think that the law
should be made in the salaat at the end.
Right.
Now, although
the prophesy has been related on the promise of loss on many
occasions that he raised his hands when he made two and I'll give you
some of these narrations is related in the Muslim abou Jada,
the NSO the Allahu Anhu said that Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said,
Yeah, Yohannes are people, your Lord is the Most Benevolent and he
is embarrassed that somebody raised somebody spreads their
hands, and He then returned those hands in failure.
So the benefit of raising the hands is that they should be used
to our will be accepted, that's generally can be applied in any to
argue make because it's general. Right? Whether you do it after the
prayer, or he didn't mention this about the prayer or after the
prayer. He mentioned this in general.
There's another Hadith related from Salman al Farsi or the Allah
one which is rated by IGNOU merger. And Timothy
also the Allahu Anhu said that I sort of sort of allah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam raising his hands to the heavens
so much that you could see his armpits so it wasn't just raising
it like this, but it was you know, there's some people they just so
casual about it when they do raise and they just like,
on their laps, like if you want to give me give it to me, you know,
and the prophets of Allah some actually said that when you make
dua, be persistent in your DUA and don't make a dua like, oh, like,
if you want to give it to me, then give it to me. Well, why are you
asking him for? He's gonna give it to you if he wants to give it to
you anyway, if you really want it, ask him for it.
Right? You know, he's like that guy. He wants to get married to
somebody and she's saying no.
So you really want to ask Allah subhanaw taala
and the other way around.
It's not always that men want women and women don't want men is
it?
Right, so you can make dua
don't underestimate Allah, essentially, that's what we're
saying. Make dua and be be persistent in your DUA
with respects.
Right, then, so we've established that generally, the hand can be
lifted because we did it now. You can't say that. You can do it at
another time, but not after salats
SubhanAllah. He did it. It was generally mentioned. So why can't
you do it anytime you want? Then the question is can you then wipe
them over your face? Where does that come from? Is that a
subcontinent thing? There is that somebody made that up? Is that a
cultural thing? No. Amount of little hot tub or the Allahu Anhu
relates in a hadith by sunnah Buddhahood and powerone. That
I'm one of those macabre, the Allah one who said that when
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would raise his hands for
dua.
He would not put them down. After finishing he wouldn't let them go
until he would wipe his face with them
until he would wipe his face with them.
There's another Hadith related by Abu Dawood as well, that sorry,
the first one was related by Timothy this one is by a Buddha
would say, booboo, Yazeed really alone relates from his father who
says that Rasulullah sallallahu. And whenever he would make dua, he
would raise his hand, and then he would wipe his face with them.
Now, it doesn't say here that you can't do that sometimes. And you
can only do it sometimes. So this was restricted to sometimes if
you're restricting this, where's your proof or restricting it? Do
you see what I'm saying?
In fact,
There's a hadith that's related
from Abu Huraira the hola Juan, that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam once raised his hand after he made Salam.
This one is specifically about making dua, and raising the hands
after the prayer directly after he made Salam, WA Homestuck Biddle
table, he was facing the Qibla. And he said Allahumma huddly Sal
wali Dybdahl, when Eades O Allah, relief, were either going to lead
from the arms of the enemy, and so on. However, to be fair, it
doesn't mention he may have done this once.
It doesn't prove that he did it all the time. So we wouldn't be
fair about it. But it's also not fair to say that you can't do it.
He did it at least once as this hadith proves. And it's mentioned
that whenever the person was made do I would raise his hands. But
remember, it's not necessary to raise your hands. But it's
completely fine to raise your hands because there's additional
benefit as mentioned in the Hadith as well.
Now, the next narration is related by Imam Toblerone
from Mohammed if not a bit yeah, here he said that I saw this was a
tabby right somebody after the Sahaba he said I saw Abdullah
Agnes debate or the Allah Han.
He had seen another person raising his hands praying before the end
of the prayer. So you know, in the end of the prayer, we make it to
Allah, Allah when you hold on to NFC, so he lifted his hands then
Right.
And I think some of the Shiites do this nowadays they raised their
hands in the prayer or something. So at the liveness, Zubaydah, the
Allah on saw him do that. When the person finished he said, look in
the Rasulullah sallallahu lumea, couldn't your Pharaoh your day, he
had to throw him in Salah T. That probably was never used to raise
his hands until he finished the prayer, which proves that he did
raise the hands after the prayer. And that's a hadith related by
Imam, Toblerone
and others.
So I think that gives us a good understanding of the raising of
the hands after the prayer. Now,
what we'll do now is
I'll give you a three minute break, just to digest what we've
done so far, because we finished the prayer.
What's left is I want to look at a few of these issues in a bit more
detail looking at some of the narrations put forward by others,
which may can cause confusion. And I want to speak about the
difference in the male and female prayer
