Salam. When making the US we always rub our faces with our
hands recently, I learned that this is an act of innovation. I'm
still trying to decipher if this is true, I know there is Hadith
that our beloved prophet Allah lorrison did not enter our without
raising his hands. But apparently this hadith is weak. Okay, so let
me put it this way, if you look at all of the Hadith with regards to
us,
not in all of them did the Prophet alayhi salam raised his hands,
however, he did in many cases. And there are also generations that
are about passing the hands on the faces, well, he never didn't
necessarily do that all the time. Right. So what the ruler might
have done, generally taken all of these ahaadeeth into consideration
is mentioned everything that rose has done in terms of dollar. The
reason why all of these little facts are mentioned is because dua
is something that we don't know it's going to be accepted or not.
Because it's something we're asking from a lighter plea to
Allah, whether he accepts it not or not, we're not going to, you
know, we may not even find out depending on what the, we're
asking for, if it's asking for something, then it may come about,
then we'll see it in reality, but otherwise, we don't, you know, in
the hereafter. Now, all of these are dub, all of these etiquette,
all of these aspects of how to do or adjust to increase, increase
the acceptability of it, that's the idea. Otherwise, you could be
literally sitting down and speaking to Allah, that would be a
DUA. However, if somebody's just kind of laying down to Allah, give
me this give me that. It's, you know, somebody comes to you,
somebody goes, and they just said, like, you know, whatever, you have
to really try. So that means sitting down facing the Qibla.
With will do, right, none of this is necessarily, you know, proven
to be a sunnah as such, but it's all an encouragement of how to get
the best out of your DUA facing the Qibla. Because Qibla is the
way you face in prayer, though the, the heavens or the Qibla for
dua, right? raising your hands is to show I want something bigger
than just going, Hey, give me something that, you know, like,
Give me something, please give me something, they make that face.
It's about making a show you really wanted. It's not this like,
I like give me something.
This is this is the way a lot of people make the other.
Like, okay, finished everything. It's, it's, it's about other, it's
all about others. So you can go in and try to find this hadith that
Hadees that hadith, this is weak, that's wrong. It's not about that.
All of these things are proven.
However, at the end of the day, it's just the general other of the
best way crying, at least making a phrase of a crack face of a crime
person, if you can't cry. All of these things are to show that, Oh
Allah, I really want this from you. That's where it matters.
And then this, the work is awesome did do this, as mentioned in the
Hadith, he didn't do it all the time. Or it's not mentioned that
he did it all the time. Do you understand? But that doesn't mean
that you can't do it, or that it's an innovation. Yes, insisting on
it. You must do this, otherwise you're doing is not accepted.
That's an innovation, but nobody says that. So this is where people
get a bit confused about the boundaries.
