who
we start today from Hadith number 169.
This narration of the Kitab it's related from an urban America the
hola Juan and a civil nomadic Rhodiola one relates to the soul
allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to prefer us to like a lot,
the Duba which means the god, G O U rd god, this is essentially that
long kind of vegetable, which is quite plain, quite simple. Gods
come in different forms. But this particular one seems to be the one
that's kind of long. A pumpkin is a type of God as well. But pumpkin
is not meant to apparently, it's the long God that's kind of
greenish with skin. It's got a hard skin, it's actually hard
until you cook it, it softens out its weight inside it has maybe a
few few light seeds in quite, I mean doesn't have a very
distinctive strong taste or any sort you have to obviously make it
with something. So he used to prefer that and that's interesting
because he used to like it. It's mentioned here, there are other
things that have always had a lot of Salam also used to like that's
mentioned as well we'll look into that later. Anyway, it mentions
here in this narration from anastomotic or the Allah one that
first he says that Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam used to really
like this particular
Vegetable for OTTB Tara Amin Odori Allah, he was brought some food
some fruit was brought in front of him or he was invited to some food
somewhere else.
And apparently asked him to Malika the alone was there as well. Now
remember pseudo medical, the Alana was the hottie he was he was his
servant for about 10 years during the Medina and period. So whenever
Rasul Allah, Allah Larson would have some food or something he may
have been there a lot of the time, if he was ever invited to go and
eat somewhere else, he would be there as well. And so he has these
narrations, he, he relates all of these narrations, he says for
Jarrell to attend the battle. For other whoo hoo been a odd. So what
I started doing. And so the alarm says is that I started looking for
the pieces of this dooba of this God, obviously cut into pieces, I
started looking for them and then putting them in front of him
Rasulullah sallallahu sallam. This tells us a number of things, it
tells us that obviously, it wasn't just code that was being served
like big, big pieces of it. Right? It was obviously being served in
something, right? Maybe part of a larger broth, or something of that
nature.
With watery sauce, or whatever it was, then he had to look for the
pieces. And then whenever he found the piece he gave it to you put it
in front of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam because he preferred it.
And he wanted to give to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wasallam as a true loving heart and you wanted to be at his
service.
Now the thing is that
there are some other related to eating.
What it normally says is that within one on the same Destrehan,
which means on the same food presentation that people are
sharing, it's okay for one person to take something and give it to
another person, because they are all being invited to the same type
of foods. However, they say that it's not it's bad at up to give it
to somebody else on another table.
And the reason for that is that it's possible that people on this
table could be served something specific while on another table.
It's something else. So if you're going to pass these things around,
it's going to kind of get mixed up especially this is not the host is
doing this. Clearly honestly, the Allahu Anhu was not the host he
was a young he was a young boy, that was helping us with allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So for one of the guests to start
passing food around, it's okay if it's on the same table because
everybody share is in the everybody is expected to eat from
the same thing. But then to give to another table is when a meaning
another, another distal can another setup could be problematic
unless of course, everybody's eating from the same food then it
may be okay in that sense because everybody's eating from the same
food you just kind of moving on from you know, you just moving an
extra dish from one place to another, then it's fine.
What it also tells us that normally the prophets Allah some
in encourage that a person eat from in front of him, and not to
kind of get food from different places, but to eat from in front
of him. So now, how do you in this case, though, this is honestly the
Allahu Anhu is doing this. The host is probably more than happy
to allow them to do this. The prophets Allah Islam is not doing
it himself, understood the Allah who is doing this for us will
allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Now, if it's just them to eating,
it doesn't say that there was anybody else eating, there was a
host, maybe maybe the host just put the food in front of them. So
he so it's what it's two guests, imagine there's two guests, one is
just taking the pieces he's giving the other guests the preference
over all of those pieces. So he's finding the messages, I'm not
eating them myself, I'm giving it to him. So it depends on this
situation, the normal Adam is that you you only eat from in front of
you unless there are different types of foods that are put
around. And in that case, you can take from the take from the
closest to you have the different types, meaning the section of the
different types that is closest to you can take from them as well.
You're not restricted, if you've got rice in front of you. And then
the the other stuff that kabobs and everything further up, doesn't
mean you have to stick with the rice just because you happen to be
sitting there you can take from the other places, that's
completely fine.
But if it's all one type of food and everybody's in, then it's bad
to kind of go and pick up somebody else's pot. Right and steal his
meat.
So and it's it's also possible here, it doesn't say that he
started looking around the plate. He just says that for jeraldo
terbaru. I started looking for it. When he says I started looking for
it. He doesn't mean that he was looking all over the plate for it.
He was looking in his own portion. And he was giving from his portion
to somebody else, meaning to Rasulullah sallallahu sallam. So
there's nothing wrong with that. Because you can give you know you
have a nice beautiful piece of chicken or a nice piece of meat or
something else that's nice and you just pass it over to somebody
else. It's completely fine. Because you're preferring somebody
else over what you have.
And if it was Rasul Allah Allah some food that they were sharing
this
wasn't at some person's house, then honestly the Allahu Anhu is
he's just giving his share over to another person. It's fine. Anyway,
we move on. And he says Lima, Lima alum, and no, you're a boo. The
reason I did this, he says is because I know that he he loves
it. He loves this particular type of food. So then in this case, I
kept giving it to him from my side.
Even though Hydra last Kalani says that the reason Rasulullah
sallallahu Sallam used to like this particular vegetable is that
it's good for your memory. And it has a very moderate amount of
moisture. It's not a very dry food and it's not a very moist kind of
food. This is all based on the medical aspects. I mean, we
don't understand it as much but
and maybe the profits or loss of new have something else that Allah
subhanaw taala had placed in there and for that reason he used to
like it, but for Anessa the Allahu Anhu to kind of highly point out
that he would like he loved this food, and then to actually find
those pieces and give it to him. That just shows that there was
something special about this food. It says that the plant from which
this young 18 year clean is another name. It was the same
plant that Shadid unis ID salaam shedule Otomi octane as mentioned
in the Quran as well. The next hadith is Hadith number 170. This
one
is related from
Hakeem Abuja, from his father whose name was Job at hypnotic
pharmacy.
Tell me he will clarify afterwards that don't misunderstand this job
to be the job. Ignore Abdullah, the famous hobby. This is another
sahabi, whose name was Javed immunotoxic. He doesn't have many
a hadith, but this is one of those Hadith that he has related maybe
the only one. He was also a Sahabi. He relates that I went to
visit Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
And when I got into the house, I saw their debone yukata. I saw
there were pieces that were cut pieces of this God.
So maybe one of the wives, or the Allahu Anhu had been cutting it
when he went and she moved away. He saw it there. This is pieces of
this god that were already cut. So then he was inquisitive, he said
for call to mA this is what is this for? What will you be doing
with this? Meaning? Why? What's the fact of cutting it this way?
Why are they those pieces put there? Is he asking that he may
have been asking is are you going to cook it like this? Or are you
going to make some medicine out of this? What are you doing? What's
what's the point of this? So Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, he said Nuka theory will be here to Avanade
we
increase the amount of food we have by it. We extend our food by
it. So if you're cooking meat, for example.
Right, if you're cooking meat, then you put some of these you
know, like today, you you're cooking some meat or something out
if you throw in a few potatoes. I'm not we never hear about batata
right? It's it's apparently I'm not sure if there was any in
Arabia. But even in England, it's only about 200 years old or 150
years old, or something potatoes, but they seem quite staple now,
right? Fish and chips. So he's saying here that just like we
sometimes will add potatoes in something. And some some people
will actually look down or if they go to somebody's house and there's
potatoes in the meat they think that these guys are
why isn't it just pure meat? Why is their potatoes?
Now Hola Hola, como de La Villa. And there are some people who will
not eat potatoes. They think it's actually below them. I've I've
dealt with somebody like that.
Right? I invited somebody and he didn't eat the potatoes. So why
not? is just not into it.
Right? But then he was he was a person I could informally speak
to. And he was from India. Right now this is not all Indians don't
do this Indians have potatoes. But this particular one is someone at
the northern states. And no, he just said,
you know, maybe it's too many of them.
Right so now he's not eating any was chips.
I made some french fries. The other person and this was in South
Africa, I think was in India. I can't remember where it was.
Anyway. So he says that we extend our food by we make it more. Right
we bulk it up, we add to it. So that's what it is. A number of
things are understood from this.
Essentially, by this it's it's understood that it was adding this
to something else. So there's nothing wrong with mixing foods
together to mixing different types of Zohar, the abstinence from the
world does not require that you just have a dish of one thing and
that's it. You could actually milk mix two things together. So
there's nothing wrong with
On number two the Imam tell me the clarifies the abour isa job or ISA
which is the mantra he says what job you don't have other job. You
know, Tarik, where you call him or be Tarik he just explained that
this is another job that is not job at an empty lot of the Allah
one. Okay. Then he says Roger Dominus have intervene he was a he
was a companion of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Lana
de hula who ILAHA the Hadith Allah had. We don't know of any other
Hadith that he has related. This is the only Hadith that we know of
him. So he's adding some extra points that about this particular
Sahabi the next hadith is 171, which is related from Abdullah
is Hakeem No, Abdullah Abdullah butala.
Is Hawk the son of Abdullah the son of Abu Talhah, who says he
heard from unassumingly Claudia Hola, Juan, again, another
narration of us are the hola Juan, you're cooler in a yacht on the
Rasul Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa salam, a little I am in Sona,
who, for Carla and Hassan for the hebdomad Rasulullah sallallahu.
Ala Erica time. So under symptomology with young relates
that a Taylor Hujjat somebody who sews he
invited Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam to food.
So this is not some kind of wealthy man. A tailor in those
days was one of the people with the one of the basic professions
that they did for people. So he was a tailor. He invited
Rasulullah sallallahu I listen to some food that he had made. And so
the Allahu Anhu says that I went with Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
for that meal, I went with him in another narration. If not had your
masculine he says we don't know the name of this person. But in
another narration, it says
that he was actually another servant of Rasulullah, another
slave of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam who happened to be a tailor
as well. He invited us to Allah, and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam
went to him. So honestly, Allah says I went with him was he
invited as well as religious kind of Tiger longest as such, it could
have been either, but that's completely fine. When you normally
invite somebody of a high stature or position, you're not normally
inviting them. I remember, there was one of the Shijo who are
coming from Pakistan. And person, I know he was going to invite him.
And he was trying to restrict the people that would come with him.
And everybody's trying to tell him it doesn't work like that. Not
because he didn't want to feed everybody. He wanted private time
with him. Or he had a very small house, it was difficult to manage.
But the problem is that once you is a problem or whatever, you
invite somebody of a high stature, he's going to bring his entourage
entourage along with him. Right, unless you further in that kind of
a situation. Otherwise you speak to them and say, Look, I'd like to
speak to you can I invite you for some private dinner? You have to
be very clear about that. But normally, that's what it is.
That's exactly what the commentators are telling us here
as well, that even if he was not invited, it would be expected that
he'd come along. He's always with Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi
wasallam. And somebody would be very mean, mean to say only EUCOM
and don't bring anybody else if it wasn't for any kind of private
meeting. This was just the hospitality. So he went along for
Cordoba, Allah Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a
HUBZone min Sheridan, who a Moroccan fee hit the button waka
didn't. So what did he offer to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. So you go to somebody's house they put in front of you
some bread, wheat bread and
some Marak mark is like a broth
something saucy right a curry of sorts without it doesn't have to
have the same masalas in there right the curry masala is just
something saucy you know some some broth type in which there was the
bar and Adid this tells us the kind of meat they had. They had
this God in there. Maybe he knew Rasul Allah Allah some like Gordo,
maybe that was just very available or the encoded, so it was mixed.
And it had pieces of meat, but this codeine is specifically dried
and salted meat that is preserved, built on beef jerky, that kind of
meat, right jerky, right. So it was that kind of meat that was
obviously reconstituted in into the broth as such with the Duba.
So there's two things that were given. So perdida just essentially
meat that is stripped that is cut into long strips dried with salt
to preserve it, because in those days you didn't have fridges and
freezers. So that's how they do it. In a in the Sunon. It relates
to a person. One of the sahabi relates that I sacrifice
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a goat and we were on a
journey at that time while we almost surfer we sacrificed the
goat the boys are awesome said in La La Maha which means salt the
meat so that it will remain for a salt is a preservative in the
sense for them as a Tamil woman who el Medina and we continue to
eat from it until Medina that was the way they would do these
things. So Anessa the Allahu Anhu says that okay, this food was
presented in front of him it had some dried. He had originally
dried meat and pieces of meat and it had this God in there. So far
right Rasulullah sallallahu Miyata dooba, Hawala casa. Now in this
case, he said, I saw Rasulullah sallallahu, I'm looking more for
the, the god from around the plate from the sides of the plate,
that's what he says.
So it could mean the side of his plate, the meaning his side of the
plate that he was just looking for that he was focusing on that more
than on the meat,
or it could have been all around, it doesn't matter. And normally,
that's not permanent. Normally, it's bad to do that, because it
seems a bit repugnant to the others that you're putting your
fingers in their plate in their part tray. But in this case, there
was that will not apply to Rasulullah, sallAllahu, alayhi,
wasallam, they'd be more than happy if they're waiting to take
the water that falls off his body when he's making wudu.
If they're willing to drink the blood that comes out of his body,
then for him to be putting his fingers anyway to be more than
baraka for them. So with Rasulullah sallallahu, this would
be one of his ha size, it would be a very particular characteristic
of his and a trait of his would have no problem. So then, in
another version of this narration, which seems to follow up with the
previous narration, it says that when honestly, the Lord saw him do
this. So then he says that I also then started collecting them from
my side and putting them in front of him, and I wouldn't eat it, I
let him eat it. So you can mix two types of foods together and make
them the respect that the Sahaba had for Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam was really to a different level, I don't think we
wouldn't even be able to do that. Because if somebody Eldred and
somebody we respect even have a lot of respectful. For example,
let's just say that you've caught captives after your first battle.
And then you're told that you must treat them well. You're very
angry, they've persecuted you, they've made you they've made you
flee from Makkah, Makara, Rama, leave all of your belongings and
just essentially flee with nothing. And now you've just had,
you've just overcome them. The anger in that is IG, especially
when you're a smaller group and you've just got them as like a big
victory. Right? So you can imagine the feelings but the prophets
Allah some said is still being played and this was regarding the
people that had been caught after the Battle of butter. So the
person who's relating this it's a narration of Abner is Hawk which
Ibaka theatres relatedness and we die on the higher he says that the
brother of most abnormal may know you know, the story of most
abnormal made, he was the one who used to be a high flyer in Makkah,
Makara, Rama and then became because he became a Muslim, he was
locked up, tortured by his parents, by his mother and so on.
They were very wealthy, and he could have had whatever he wanted,
but he embraced Islam. He went to Madina Munawwara became a teacher
there. So this was the battle in which his brother
abou diseases name was Abu Aziz even or maybe even know Hashem, He
was caught in that battle.
So abou Aziz is relating this.
He's saying that the prophets Allah, some had told them, it's
those who became clear on treat them well. So they had dates,
which was staple, you know, that dates was the basic food they had
all the time. They had dates and they had bread. So bread was and
they had a very small amount. They would give us the bread to eat,
and they would just eat the dates. And he says, I felt so
embarrassed, that I would push it back and say, No, you eat it, but
they would not touch it, and they would make us eat it.
Just because of salt. allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had
said that now look at that 80 bar. Look at that following of
Rasulullah sallallahu. Imagine ourselves and we'll say, Okay,
we'll treat them well. No problem, you know, we'll just kind of have
you guys you know, you're right. Share the food or whatever. Right?
But this is that. Treat them well means better than yourself.
That's how they want things in those days. Well, Musa Bibiano
mayor, he comes up, he sees his brother, and the person who was
looking after his brother, he says timer properly, make sure he's
tied properly. He's got a very wealthy mother, and you'll be able
to get a good ransom from him. That was a brotherly thing. You
know, like, because his mom had obviously done whatever she did. I
was like, yeah, get the money from her. She's a wealthy, wealthy
person. So yeah, it's fine.
But ajeeb etbr ajeeb I mean, you just can't. That was the early
muddiman period as well. To give somebody preference over yourself
just because your leader tells you to hear it says follow him as a
double Amin Yama even then answer the Allahu Anhu says that because
of that, no, no, listen to this carefully. He says that from that
day, I began to also love the
Lord,
and the commentator, he clarifies a Mohab button Shariat and letaba
Iatan Allah Toby, Toby eaten, which means not a natural love,
but a religious love. Now what does that mean? example of that
is,
you have been given some really bitter medicine to drink, you hate
it, but you love it for a different reason. So you don't
naturally have any love for it. But you have a love for it because
you know, it's beneficial. So it's a kind of a very selective type of
love. And here, it's about a religious love that you love it
because Rasulullah Salah son loved it, even though you don't see any
point in it, maybe you might not see any particular taste in it.
And a god I mean, what taste does it have very simple kind of
vegetable. But you will love it for the sake that Rasulullah
sallallahu Sallam loved it. That gives an understanding that
although this is not wajib to do or anything like that, but because
the Sahaba has related this and he's mentioned in this, it he is
essentially validating that kind of love. So remember, it's a
muhabba Sharia not a muhabba tabi Yes, it's not natural, because you
can't change your nature, can you so even if you hate it, you're
eating it because of sort of La Silla ism, loved it. And the whole
reason for this is that if you love Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi
wasallam, the Mustafa that will make you love everything they
love, you will begin to love it as well, including your food drink
and the way he used to dress. So now he tells us that even the
dress wise, this is the reason why do we do not because it's an
obligation to dress in this particular way or anything like
that. Another thing that we understand from here is that this
man was a yacht, he was a Taylor, right, not one of the wealthy men
of Madina Munawwara so
it's permissible to go and it's not just permissible, but it's a
good idea for a person with a higher noble person to go and eat
from somebody who's lower. And not to feel that that's bad to do
that. Not just to accept hospitality from wealthy people,
but to go and to give it to go and respond to somebody's invitation
and accept this kind of invitation. As long as
everything's fine there. So I mean, look, there was sort of the
Rasulullah sallallahu is going to their houses even though he's such
a busy man, he's so busy person he is got his own things to do, but
he's going when, whenever that was a that was called for he used to
go and he used to take part in that as well. The next hadith is
172 That one is related from Hisham Ibn Aurora from his father,
from which means from Ottawa Remember, I told you he was one of
the students of our actually the hola Juana. So he released this
from our shot of the Allahu anha it looks like I shouldn't give him
so much in so much detail. So much knowledge he passed on.
Ghana rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa salam, you will halwa or
will Asel you're going to love this one. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi salam used to love halwa, which means sweet dish. Well,
acid, and honey. So honey is obviously part of the sweet dish.
But it's just mentioning that in particular, after mentioning in
general. So yeah, hello, we'll ask them. So you'd like banoffee pie
and all this kind of stuff.
Really sickling stuff. I don't know if you'd call us. But
generally any halwa anything halwa what they say
is
one of the commentators has mentioned that, in particular,
what the Prophet SAW last semester, like was lots of dates,
that was, you can say, probably pitted, the pit taken out, and
then made into a dough with adding milk. So kind of
some kind of Muay Thai, you know, made out of dates and milk. No, it
wasn't I don't think he meant he was a milkshake. I don't think it
was liquid, I think it was just a bit just to soften it out, maybe
kind of ground together and soften out. And that's something you can
do, you can add a few nuts in there, and you kind of put it into
play, then you make slices and it's these little pieces you get
of
Yeah, it says essentially, it's a dome, that dates that have been
mixed as a dough with milk. That's what I mentioned. It could also
have work and that that was one set of something he preferred. But
then halwa also refers to fruits used to like fruits that could
refer to that, or anything else that like that. So there's nothing
wrong with it. Now, obviously, when it comes to a sweet dish,
there's an aspect of desire, there is an aspect of you like it, but
where that becomes problematic is if that's what you're always
after. And you're going out of your way to get it but the profit
center lorrison Whenever he was available, he ate it. And
then how do you know that he loved it then
the idea was that went
Something like that was served, you could tell that he liked that
more than other things. So you could tell his preference for it.
That's why he's saying you hibel halwa otherwise he would eat
anything. But when he came to this, there was a, there was
something that he showed a liking for it, which is fine. That just
shows a complete human being that this is how a human being is, as
long as it doesn't go beyond that into greed and avarice.
That's why
Allah Maha tabi says is that whenever that kind of a thing
would be served, then he would eat it more heartily. Right, so that
just shows he loved it a bit more. So there's nothing wrong with
doing that. Oh, mashallah, you got this. I really enjoyed this.
There's nothing wrong with saying that Zohar Dreiser doesn't mean
that you just don't mention any preference whatsoever. And you
just kind of eat coldly. But now you can express a desire that oh,
this is really nice. You know, I really liked this that's
completely fine with that. It's never Sugar, Sugar.
Question is that was there sugar in those days like that? Because
they use natural honey and things like that, not because of health
reasons. So the sugar was probably not available. That's why it says
that. It's not related in any sahih Hadith and the prophets, a
lot of them ever even saw sugar in the way we have it. Because maybe
it was I haven't looked into this mummy was a process that was
discovered later or Allahu Island. I'm not sure. The next Hadeeth is
173. In this one, it's related from Arthur Ibnu. Yasar. He
relates that this was almost an AMA she was also from the bonito
from a B omega. Name was hint this one is hindered. Sorry. She
relates to him. She she related that or he related that she
informed him
an AHA call Robert Allah Rasulullah sallallahu some
Jimbaran mushiya. Now this is you know, until now, we've been
talking about the bar, the God but now we're talking about we've just
spoken about desserts. And now we're speaking about something
else. Jimbaran mushy, yum, roasted meat.
So she gave she presented Rasulullah sallallahu ala some
some roasted meat which was most likely from goat
or anything could have been any any meat and he ate from it.
If not, ask Allah near the Lord says the Imam Tirmidhi mentioned
this hadith after the one about the sweet meat to show and after
the one about the sweet meat, the honey and this to show that these
three things are the most superior types of foods from a from one
perspective, the very beneficial for the body to a certain degree
and
meet the reason why people eat it so much is that it's the king of
foods in a sense, right. And obviously overindulgence is a bad
thing but in the Paradise it will be the food of the people of
paradise.
There's a hadith related by YBNL Marja and others with a week
chain.
That alarm will say the timely early dunya will Akira meat is the
King of Food for both the people of the dunya and akhira. And it
definitely is.
As you can see from the way people eat it,
and then it says thermal orals, then it's rice after that is rice.
Abu Sheikh relates from Busan. He says I heard the aroma Our Allah
ma saying that the most preferred foods Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam was food.
Sorry, was meat, meaning when he had meat, he ate it. And he ate it
heartily. He liked the shoulder meat especially Imam Shafi says
that eating meat increases your intellect. I know the Allahu Anhu
says that is good for your color.
And it's good for your, your behavior as well. Because anybody
who doesn't eat meat for 14 days, then they will feel really,
they'll have very bad character, maybe because they just don't have
the energy or whatever. So they'll just be losing it that sense. See
nowadays is very difficult to put this stuff in perspective, because
you have vitamins and you have all of these additives, and you don't
know where you're getting what you're getting. It's just so
confusing nowadays, because you have a bowl of cereal in the
morning, for example, and that has your recommended data, you know,
huge portion of your recommended daily allowance of your vitamins
or whatever this time the other then we the other foods and then
we don't know what we're getting what we're not getting. I mean, we
just cannot moderate our foods, because it's just not pure
anymore. Unless somebody is very particular about just having pure
foods that are not preserved in any particular way. Just really
straightforward. Pure foods. I mean, that's very difficult.
Now if you see with that, as it was literally just meat, honey,
that dessert was
milk mixed with dates. What else? You know, it is very simple,
straightforward. You don't even hear about masalas I'm sure they
must have had something maybe some salt or something but you hardly
hear about
anything like that. And if you look in Indian food, the minimum
amount of the average types of spice you have done is about 10.
Just think about it. You need your garlic. You need your ginger. You
need your chili, both the green and the red one, the dried one and
that you need your data. Your dunya your what would you call
that?
Coriander, you need your touch Blanc, right, your you know your
sorry
not turmeric, we're still coming. That's healthy. That's, you know,
that's still we're still turmeric, that's number eight, but clubs and
cinnamon. Right? And then and then you're turmeric. And what else?
You got Giro that's, that's another thing. And then there's
Elachi not make. And that that's, that's 10. I mean, that's kind of
like normal. Today, you might add on substract one or the other, but
Subhanallah
so it's very difficult nowadays, unless you really get pure, really
particular about what you eat and so on.
Now, the other thing that he says is that then the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam after having this after after eating
this roasted meat some a comment in a Salah T one matawa He then
got up to pray Salah to for the solid and he did not make will do
again. The reason that's mentioned there is there's another Hadith
which mentions that you should make will do after eating meat
that's been cooked by fire for example. But it seems like the
reason for that was that if it was very greasy meat like camel meat
sometimes is then the widow that was referred to is the minor will
do which means you washing your hands and mouth. But in this case,
he didn't do that which means that it doesn't break your wood which
is standard today which as we understand it, but there was some
SD laugh before about this. And then the next hadith is 174 very
similar. It says that Abdullah hymnal Hadith he says that we ate
with Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Shiva. Shiva means
again,
meat roasted on fire. So whether that's barbecued meat or some kind
of barbecued meat like that, we had that we Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam with bread. We ate it with bread
in the masjid Phil Masjid.
So now this is where you get the permissibility of eating inside
the Masjid.
However, the other mentioned that in order to eat in the masjid, you
should have the intention of aitikaf to justify that otherwise
why would you make the masjid a place for eating? If you're not
anti CAFTA it doesn't have to be a 24 hour ethical it could be
another ethical so if you do have to eat in a masjid, right then
have intention of ethical because that's why you should be that's
why you would be there if you're doing that. Whether you're alone
or otherwise, and as long as it does not pollute the Masjid. So if
you're laying something down, it's not going to make a smell and so
on then it would be fine. Otherwise, it's my crew to do so.
But there is a permissibility based on this hadith. Then he
mentions in YBNL merger from mahkamah for Salah of a Salah was
Selena Mara who, while I'm Lizzy Allah and Masana Idina will husba.
So simple. So simple, says that, then he stood up and prayed. And
we also prayed with him. And the only thing that we did was that we
wiped our hands on the on the grid or the pebbles on the floor.
So that's how they wipe their hands. In those days, that's what
you you did didn't have soap. So one of the best ways to do it was
to mix it with the sand on the floor. That's one of the best
cleansers that you can have. So they literally did that in the
muscle, but then it was all natural was in it. So you just
have to turn it, turn it around, and then they went and prayed.
Don't do that today.
They'll kill you. On the carpets. There was a guy there was a guy
who must have read a hadith like this that the prophets Allah some
made solid with his slippers on because in those days, the
slippers were literally like one or two pieces of leather at the
bottom with a * top. Not like you know, with these big
soles and things like that. It was a simple, it was like a like a
hoof. So they prayed with that. And the masjid didn't have
carpets. This guy goes into a masjid with his boots. It's
Sunday, you can't tell me to take it off. Because the Prophet
sallallahu some prayed with his shoes on.
So what's he connecting to what? Right? Those days didn't have
carpets, it was just the pebble on the ground. And that's why they're
Allama have written that if were you making such David's a bit
uneven, then it's permissible for you want to quickly just pass your
hand over to flatten it so that it's not irritating on your
forehead. But in that in those cases, in this case, martial law,
everything is just very nice. I mean, where do we ever pray even
when you pray outside nowadays, we put something out we just so
spoiled.
Obviously we do it because we think it's impure and so on. But
that's the case. The next hadith is 175 which is related from
Mahira IGNOU Shabbat or the Allah one you
He said this to my Rasulullah sallallahu. Today that in I
attended as a guest with Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam one night somewhere. So he was a guest with Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wasallam somewhere. One of the commentators
mentioned that this hospitality this meal this meal took place in
the house of Dubois been disobeyed. Ignore Abdul Muttalib
epner to Amina via sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, a cousin sister
of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam his uncle's daughter. She invited
and he went there
and it's also possible imager Ashkelon he says that it may also
be possible that this actually happened in the house of Maimunah
Radi Allahu Allah among many in his wife. So today is his cousin's
place or his wife's house.
So he says for OTB, jumpin machine. Now in this case, he was
brought this
flank of a meat of a meat piece that was mushy, that was roasted,
you know, barbecued some, some way. Some shuffler
he took the knife for hazily be harming him. So remember the
promise a lot of time is the movie revenue shot by is a Sahabi. It
may have been somebody else. He says he carved the meat for me he
cut a piece of the meat for me with the knife.
Number of things are understood from here because there's another
Hadith which is related by Bukhari and Muslim
that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. It says that he cut
from the shoulder of the goat meat that he was eating. And
then the Athan then went off, meaning that he then was called,
so he dropped the meat dropped the knife that he was cutting he went
and he prayed he didn't make will do.
Now there's a hadith in a Buddha ODE and be hooky
from Aisha Radi Allahu Allah, she says that Rosa Lawson said la Dr.
o la Moby Sikkim, for in the human Sunil Jim, do not cut meat using a
knife because that's the way of the non Arabs. Right? That's a
quite a popular narration. Don't cut meat using a knife, if you
don't have to essentially just pull it apart because it's cooked
anyway, why do you need to so refined, you know, it's
essentially it's like, you got this piece of meat a steak, for
example. And you're there with a fork and you know, with a knife
and you're carving it out, I remember we had an English
teacher, Muslim, but a British English of origin, right up north.
And he says that the first time he invited somebody to eat one of the
students from the mother asked her to eat an Indian student from the
mother. And he says, We gave him this food. And then I went out.
When I came back, the plate was nearly empty. Right? And I was
like, wow, how did you eat so fast?
How did you eat so fast? Then he says, I realized that he's with
his hand, he doesn't eat, you know, little bits and bobs and eat
with a little fork, you know. So that's why it's much faster to eat
like that. So anyway, so that's what he's saying that there's no
need to go to that kind of refined way of you know, cutting little
bits and you know, popping them into your mouth. You just break
them with your hand or break them with or tear it with your teeth.
As simple as that. So that hadith seems to kind of prohibit using a
knife. And yet in this other Hadith, the prophet Allah Islam is
using a knife. And he's cutting a piece and carving a piece for
Mahira, even on Shabbat or the Allah one. So where the prophet
saw some said, Don't do that, that's obviously where you don't
need to do that whether meat is soft, straightforward to tear
apart and and just use your hands, there's no need to go and do this
extra don't use tickle. If I have to use a knife, just do it with
your hands. But where it's necessary, there's nothing wrong
with using a knife, that's what he's saying is just where it's not
necessary, where it doesn't seem like pretension to do it. extra
burden to do it, then. So it's that kind of a distinction.
Another thing that you understand from here is that it doesn't have
to be the, the kind of lower person that should be doing or
looking for the other for the higher person. But Rasulullah
sallallahu isn't the most superior being in the world he is cutting
this for, for that for somebody else. That's very important.
That's, that's a sunnah to follow for people who will go with people
that are maybe their students or maybe they're the most noble
person there, right? As such, the the most important person or
whatever they it doesn't mean that you just sit and be waiting at
away that waited upon that they should do something for others
just like rasool Allah Allah, Allah is missing here. Now listen
to this, he says, Carla Fajr Billa. So as he's cutting this for
me, and we're going to eat suddenly, beloved, the Allahu Anhu
comes the you know, beloved, or the Allahu, and he was the event,
and he used to be informing the sort of Lasala some of the prayer,
you are the new who
be sadati telling him about the prayer or giving a damn for the
prayer. So Bill are the documents that are giving us out of the
prayer. Right. So the
Rock Solid, solid laws and for Alka Shifra Fukada Mala who told
you about Yoda? He put the night a put the knife down, and he says,
What's wrong with him? Today but Yoda May his hands be, it's kind
of like a
admonishing term that he but Yoda means May his hands become soiled,
right which means it was a statement that they used to use
before to mean May May he become poor, right? Because if we only
got soil in your hands immediately got nothing else. But then
eventually it just became a kind of a statement to just tell
somebody off the bat to duck so you don't mean it? You don't mean
that? Yeah, May you become poor? It just means like,
I don't know Do we have any statements like that nowadays?
Just to show
kind of
unhappiness with someone on a light on a light level. So why did
he say that to him for
at that point when he was about to eat he was cutting the meat he had
the meat he had the knife in his and he cut the meat for movie
movie right Misha butter the Lord belongs to the hostess then so
according to some commentators what they say is that he was about
to eat there was a lot of time left for Salah and Baillargeon is
going giving a damn disturbing the fruit.
However, there was a the other LMS say that based on the next part of
the Hadith it was for a different reason. Which is the
as Mohammed Michelle but then relates what kind of shared Hebrew
who could refer below the Allah one whose moustache had become
really big, very long.
So that is what the person was complaining about. Like what's
wrong with him? Right literally look at his moustache is too big.
Because then he says for Karla, Protestantism said to him, a kazoo
halacha Allah Sivak. Oh cusu Allah see work? Which means Should I cut
it for you over a miss work? Or you should cut it over miswak.
So what does he mean by cutting over his work, meaning you get to
miss work, it means that you don't shave the full thing off. But you
put a miswak there at the bottom, and whatever falls over it, you
cut that part off, so that the lips are totally uncovered, so
that when you're eating or drinking, no part of the head,
mixes with the food or drink that you're in, you're drinking it.
It's trying to show that you don't have to remove the whole thing and
shave it off as such.
So that's what he said. So some, it looks like the majority of
commentators said that when the proxy lesson I'm expressed this
irritation with him. It was not for the food, but it was for that
but others say that it was because there's lots of time, there's food
here. And he's saying like we're going to eat and you're giving us
that for and we have to go for a solid.
In terms of the moustache, the HUKUM of that is that some aroma
consider it to be wrong to shave it, others permitted. But because
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, lengthen your beards
and decrease your mustache. He didn't say shave it. Otherwise, he
could have just said one word shave it but he didn't say shave
it is a decrease it which means to clip it. So that's why some
orlimar say that it's a light form of mcru to shave it. But there's
nothing wrong with clipping it as closely as you want. But it's
completely fine to leave it as big as it may be as long as it doesn't
go down. So if it's bushy, but it doesn't go down onto the lips and
the lips are completed the upper lip is completely clear, then
there's nothing wrong with that because you won't fall into
anything. Then the question is about the two sides. Right? The
two sides they call the sea Ballet, the sea by lane. Right the
two sides of the moustache, and essentially are what are the
Allahu Anhu used to keep them long but they can be cut off as well as
most people do nowadays is not really a big it looks quite bad
nowadays because it's not invoke. But
it's related by man Buhari. Sorry, MMB hotkey for from ignorance.
What are the Allahu andet?
In your own what are the Allah who used to have that?
And even know how journalist Kalani says the Imam has early and
others they said that it's fine to leave them because Amara, the
Allahu Anhu used to do that, as long as he doesn't cover the
mouth.
However, there's a narration in Sahib no Hibben that the Prophet
sallallahu sallam was told about the medians, the fire worshippers
of Persia, the Medusa, that they are a people. So the way they were
described was by this description that they are people who really
elongate the sides of their mustache. Is that what you call
it? What would you call them? There's a name for them. Anyway,
the sides of the mustache was very elongated. And they used to shave
the beards. So they were potato there. And they used to have long
What do you call it? Sides, moustache burns, if you want to
call them right, but I'll do otherwise. Right I'll do means
potato.
So he says
For Haile, for whom
you should go against that should not do what they do so you should
go against that. In another narration in Ahmed Musa Ahmed it
says, go sue us Bala calm Porfirio, Lucha calm, which means
shorten the sides of your moustache and lengthen your beard.
But there's nothing wrong with keeping them long as long as it
doesn't bother the food and so on. Now, the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam used to cut his nails and clip his mustache on Friday before
going to salaat
that is related in a narration of Bay hockey, Friday before solid to
do your grooming. If you're working, you could do it in the
morning before you go for work on Friday.
However, there's another narration it says that on Thursday, you clip
the nails, and you remove the hair from under the armpits and the
pubic hair on Thursday. And on Friday, you have your bath, and
you put extra scent fragrance on and you know your nice clothes on.
So you can do it a day before if you want to split it up on
Thursday and Friday. That's how you do it.
However, there's nothing very savvy related about any particular
time that you must do it or not, you can do it really at any time.
And even in the way it should be done. There's not any sahih Hadith
about how to clip the nails from which side there is something
mentioned. But that's from the Elamites not from the Hadith about
which way to start from exactly.
And this is important. So people should observe that they groom
themselves, which means clip the nails, the keep the mustache in
check the hair, groomed and oiled and the body washed and cleaned,
especially the joints as mentioned in a number of Hadith and so on.
And the and unwanted hair removed, right both for the male and the
female. And that is important because that's part of the dignity
of the human being that they look presentable. That is very
important. And this and this, they say is the Sunnah all the way from
Ibrahim alayhis salam. So it's not to be taken lightly. The other
thing is that it says that when a person is in the field of Dawa
inviting people, then for them to be dressed well like this is good
because it actually has an effect. So it's saying that essentially if
you look like a hippie and you're trying to give dower and people
are gonna look down upon you that you can't even look at look after
yourself how you're going to look after anybody else. It doesn't
have a good effect unless you're among the same kind of people.
All right, so he says in general that's why Imam Malik and others
they used to Imam Abu Hanifa for example, Rahim Allah as well. They
used to wear the good perfume good clothing, just so that it had an
impact on people people didn't get kind of sidetracked by things they
opened up their mind to these things and this is part of Islam
to do that if it it's completely fine as long as obviously you
don't become obsessed with these things.
Okay, I think we'll we'll stop here. And there's the next one is
Hadith number 177.
