hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala say you will
Marcelino he also be your DaCosta limited Sleeman Kathira on Isla,
you're meeting in my bed
the next two chapters here about
the
the helmet or the coat of male that's one over the head for
protection in a battle. So it's part of the armor. So that of
Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam, the middle.
And the next chapter is about the EMA or the turban of Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
And the reason why Imam didn't maybe maybe brought the two
together is because
there's a hadith, in which it mentions that the Prophet
salallahu alayhi wa sallam had every mama on and he had that
helmet on as well.
So that's why they've been brought together.
The helmet one.
Not sure how many times in one's life, you'd have to wear a coat of
armor over the head.
Nowadays, battle is by remote control.
It's really done in different ways. And
the imamo is something which is a sunnah that hamdulillah has been
enlivened to a certain degree
in many parts of the Muslim world, but not all.
And it's something that we do need to look at carefully, because it's
something that can be done at any time.
So firstly, let's look at the first chapter. The first chapter
is a very short chapter about the metaphor of Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi, wa sallam
the word milk for comes from a law firm. A law firm means to cover
cetera, it means to cover so it's the covering. And normally people
translate this what's in your translation
of that chapter, the heading
chapter on the, the helmet, so you shall essentially milk for is not
the beta is actually the helmet. Right? So the middle fur is really
the part which is made of a coat of male, it's
a piece of male that is one over the head, sometimes it's connected
to the body armor. But most of the time, it's something that's worn
over the head and that covers the neck as well made of links are
made of any material that is to there to protect against the
strike on the head. So that's a mill for
now, you understand the previous Hadith in which we read that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam during the Battle of earth, when
he was attacked, and links of the MC for protruded inside so now you
understand how the links they will have this piece of mail as opposed
to the helmet because normally the helmet is a piece of metal that's
then worn over that piece of mail.
So that's made of solid metal, or normally over over that so that's
that's different although the word milk for can apply to that as
well. And the word milk for because it means covering in
general. So specifically normally means the piece of mail sometimes
it refers to the helmet and sometimes it also refers to a mama
because that's also covering of the head. So the word is generally
in a sense and he could apply to all of these words. Let's read the
Hadith of the chapter first from the mountain maybe what will be
similar who are learning Rahim or bill is now the matassini Min Imam
within me the call a bourbon manager if you see the milk for
the Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam or when you call had this
an apple table or you didn't call this an American or understand
that and Nisha Herban and and Sydney American or the Allahu Anhu
and interviews Allah Allah while he was under for the Makati human
foreign leader who had no hotel in mortality Colombia studied cavity
for Qaddafi to do well he called ahead that scenario he said Norma
Dakota had this an arm to live and we're having God had this
pneumatic notice in our new Misha herb in Sydney American with the
hola Juan Wynonna Sudha Lysa Lilavati was salam de Hoda Makita
element that he were at our ROTC Hill mill for Okada. Further
manners are who are who Roger and for Karla Abner Hatari Mota are
different we're starting to get ready for caught up to do. God
knew she had been abalone and Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
Yokoyama, even more human.
So to Hadith in this chapter is chapter 15 of the book to Hadith
Hadith number 110 111. The first one is related from Anissa Malik
and the second one is also related from anastomotic the Allah Juan,
he may have gone with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and
observed this very closely and that's why he's relating this. So
the first Hadith which is
is related by a somatic or the Allahu and he says that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam entered into maca, maca,
Rama
and upon upon him was a metaphor was this piece of mail or a
helmet.
It says in another version mean Hadid and it was made of iron. So
then it takes out the cloth, a mama and the turban. It's not
speaking about the cloth or imala it has to be speaking about the
helmet or the male.
There's another Hadith which is related by Muslim from Jabra the
Allah one he says that I heard of sort of LaSalle Allahu alayhi wa
sallam saying
it is not halal for any of you
to carry
weapons in Makkah Makara Allah.
So if that is the case, this hadith indicates that prophets
Allah is entering into Makkah, with a helmet on, he's entering
with a helmet on. Clearly they're not just entering with armor on
they've got weapons with them as well. So if they've got weapons
with them, then why the how do you then relate this to the hadith of
Muslim, which says that nobody is allowed to carry weapons in Makkah
Makara.
One shows the prohibition the other act of Rasulullah sallallahu
some actually shows that they must have carried weapons. The reason
is, because Makkah, specifically at that time and the conquest took
place was made permissible for the Prophet sallallahu. It was it was
it made an exception for the prophets of the Lord Islam, to
carry weapons and to do this just for that moment of the day,
specifically, as related in many places, and it will never become
Halal again afterwards. So nobody can claim that it's become Halal
again, because it was made halal through ye through Revelation, and
that revelation has stopped. There are other people who've
made it halal for themselves as such without any religious
sanction had judged on the use of for example, when attacking
Abdullah he was aware of the hola Juan and then before that as well.
So it's not an it says Welcome to Hallo Leah had in Baroda they will
never be hallowed again to do that afterwards for anybody else. So
it's related from the prophets, Allah loyalism, he had actually
entered that day prepared for battle. But alhamdulillah, it was
taken much more simply and much more easily. There was only one
place where because the Muslim army went in from the different
sides of mcomber karma, the South, the North and so on. Only in one
place. It has been with either the Allah one have a little skirmish
with someone, otherwise the others, they went in there quite
peacefully, and it was taken very easily. There's a difference of
opinion as to whether it was taken through a treaty.
Sometimes there's a siege that takes place takes place. And then
they agree to on a particular treaty that okay, we asked you for
this to another and we'll give it up. And in other times it was
taken after a fight. Right, regardless of what the reasons for
the fight. So this is just speaking about the actual final
event, how is the city taken and the outcome and the laws for each
will be different.
The laws for each will be different, those lands which are
taken by through a war, through fighting, and those which are
taken through a treaty, some of the laws that govern the citizens
of the area will be different, something even as basic as some
rhythm I mentioned that if a city is taken through peaceful means,
through an agreement and so on, then the Imam should carry an ASA
a
as a staff in Joomla, whereas if it's taken through fighting, then
he should carry a sword.
Right? And some say that that's not really necessary to do it
either way. It's you could do either because the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam carried out Assa sometimes some say
depends on what the answer is useful and so on.
And for example, there was when they went for ombre Takada to when
the Prophet said a lot of them had gone back to Makkah, local Rama to
me, may quarter of the O'Mara. They had taken the they had taken
the weapons but they were not brandishing their weapons because
they knew were just there. They were not going to use them. Or the
Hadith refers to the fact that it's not allowed. It's not it's
not categorical that you cannot carry weapons there otherwise the
police I don't know if they carry weapons or anything right now. I
don't think so.
Generally, you don't really see the weapons maybe for specific
cases they might do Allah one. But anyway, the Hadith could also be
taken that you're not allowed to carry weapons to go and fight with
other believers.
So it's not a categorical Hadith. So at the end of the day, there
are these discussions and just as a side point, you know, it's
famous among the believers among the Muslims that
non Muslims cannot enter mcomber carnamah Madina Munawwara and that
is what is practiced today. By the law of Arabia as far as I know,
there's even signs and so on. However, strangely enough in the
Hanafi school, there's no problem with non Muslims entering into
mocha mocha Rama Madina, Munawwara because they say that when it says
in the militia and alleges that Mushrikeen impure it means the
beliefs that occurred, not physically so physically non
Muslim can go into Makkah Mercado Medina, according to the Hanafi
school.
Somebody asked under Saudi Allah one
when he related this that the brothers I was mentored maca, and
he had this helmet on this headgear on. So somebody asked him
actually know, somebody didn't ask us. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasallam was told, the Prophet saw some actually took off this
headgear after it had been after he'd gone in there, and he settled
down, he took off the headgear, he took off this helmet, and then it
was said to him, that there is IGNOU Hottel
whose name was Abdullah Riza.
If Nahata
he is holding on to cleaving onto the, the veils of the Kaaba, the
cloth of the Kaaba, the covering of the Kaaba,
what should you do with him? Now, this needs to be put into
perspective. This ignore Hottel was a problem. He was a Muslim
before His name is Abdullah. In fact, he was very close to us to
according to some narrations used to even write the ye. And the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam used to send him to collect
sadaqa.
To collect sadaqa as a, as an Irishman, as they call him, he
stayed in one place, and he had a had a servant with him. And he
told the heart him his servant to sacrifice an animal and make some
food for him. And you, then he went to sleep, when he woke up,
the person that made anything, for whatever reason he hadn't made
anything. So he got really angry and killed him. He got angry and
killed him. And then for some, whatever reason he
here, whatever the story was, he took off, he then found two women
that used to that used to sink to singing to singers, pop stars,
who used to sing and criticize the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam,
so it killed the person shaitan really came over him, he killed
the person. And then he went to the whole extreme of giving up his
faith as such, because what he did was he, he appointed these two
women, he took them with with him, and they used to criticize the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and the muslimeen.
One of them eventually became Muslim afterwards, the other one
was killed as a disbeliever. So when the prophets Allah, some
entered Maka, maka, Rama will go into more detail in that story he
had said, or the agreement if it was as an agreement, that
agreement was that these four particular men and two women, that
they would not be forgiven. So that was agreement. And if there
were, there's a lot of there's a difference of opinion as to how
much was taken. Was it taken by by fighting? Or was it taken just
peacefully under agreement? So the strongest opinion is that it was
taken through through force. And Wharton, it was taken through
force, but they hardly any fighting took place, but it was
taken by force, in a sense, then they just succumb and people
succumbed. It wasn't like they waited outside, and then they did
a peace treaty. And then they entered the strongest opinion,
although there is another opinion, which says that there was an
agreement that was made a kind of, so people are probably confused
that, but really, the main thing is that it was taken by force with
a very minimal amount of fighting. So either way, these four men were
supposed to be taken care of because they had done heinous
crimes, which could not be forgiven, unless they became
Muslim. And they did what they had to do by paying the DEA or
whatever the case was, in this case, the person had killed
somebody. So the question is that why was he killed? Was he killed
because he was criticizing and swearing at the prophets of Allah
who already he was salam? Because some have taken this hadith to
indicate that anybody who swears that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, he should be killed. But others have said, No, that is
not the case. The reason why he was killed is because he had
killed somebody else, which is
really a major crime as well. And that was what justified his
killing in that case. So
the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, oh Cthulhu kill him.
The prophets of Allah is some Greek and at this time, you can
imagine how severe this person's crime was, and how unforgivable it
was. By the fact that an arch enemy of Islam a boo boo Soufiane
the Prophet sallallahu Sallam is making an announcement that
anybody who goes into his house is safe, going to the arch and my
arch enemies house in your safe
All right. But when it comes to this guy, a single guy who's not a
leader of the college, but he's just done such a heinous crime
against another person, he is to be killed, even though he's
holding onto the cloth of the Kaaba
because he had done such a crime. So it had to be justified when you
look at the way the Rosa Lawson would be so forgiving and so on.
So on this person's crime was unforgivable in a sense.
Who killed him then? So obviously, the Sahaba were around, and then
they went and took care of it. So who killed him? There's a big
difference of opinion. Some say Sati, Wu Zaid, the one of Amara,
the allowance cousin who's one of the 10 who've given been given
Glad Tidings a paradise some say sorry, they're gonna be with us.
Another opinion is zubaid ignore our our * Allah one. Another
opinion, these are all from different opinions. And mabuya.
Sir, some say Sorry, didn't hurt eighth. And it looks like the
strongest opinion is a boo boo Eslami. Even though hudgell
Ashkelon, he says that that's probably the strongest opinion
that he's the one who actually killed him, although the others
all went to get him. And that's why there's these different
reports as to because people probably saw, okay, they heard
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam, saying he must be
killed, and then they probably saw these people going, the Sahaba
going, and they assume that it must have been him. So they all
went after him. But the one who actually killed him was a brother,
a salami, or the Allah one.
And he killed him between the rock and Alia Murni
and the Maqam Ibrahim. So in that area, he wouldn't come out of the
area, but they had to kill him there.
So they say this was a calf, this person was a calf at a clear
catheter, and he had killed somebody else. And that was why it
was justified.
It's, I mean, Allah knows best exactly what the reasoning of the
Prophet 7000 was, but if you study the issue, this is what you get.
This is what you can understand.
So now, the question is,
are you allowed to establish who dude penalties such as this? An
eye for an eye? A life for a life? Are you allowed to do that in a
masjid?
Because this took place in a masjid? So the answer to that is
no. Firstly, one of the reasons they give is that at that time, it
wasn't a masjid. Officially. That's one opinion. Because if you
look at even some of the old pictures, the Kaaba was there, in
the middle, the cab has always been there.
And around it was a clearing the Mataf area was just a clearing,
and then the houses began of the community. That's why it says when
you go into the Harlem, you should go through the blue Shaybah gate.
And the blue Shaybah gate means the area of Makkah where the blue
shape I used to live through their community through their gate, you
go in that way, once you go through the last of the houses and
then suddenly stemmata off. So imagine where the, the, the Masjid
begins today, they will houses before
must have been quite interesting in a living, right, they just go
in there, do it off, come back and coming to your house Subhan Allah.
And then after that the walls were made and then it was the walls
that were made later.
It was one of the Allah one that put a wall first time around the
Kaaba, as you know, designated an area of the month off. And so and
then slowly, slowly began to there were people in that where we pray
nowadays in that masjid, in the you know, expansion and the King
AbdulAziz expansion, all of that the people were living there one
time SubhanAllah. And slowly, slowly, it's just been, the Masjid
has been growing as such. And soon we'll be doing tawaf when nobody
else has been done tawaf which is on a second floor in the Mataf.
They're going to be putting up these maybe these moveable floors
or whatever. I mean, somebody's they've done swimming, tawaf, I
think it was Abdullayev no Zubayr are the Alon who did toe off
swimming, because floods used to come at that time.
However, others have not agreed with this opinion that is not a
masjid because the prophets, Allah subhanho wa Taala has called it a
masjid in the Quran from before so whether there was a building or
not, it's a mischief because I'm assuming is a place where prayer
doesn't have to have a roof. So Allah subhanaw taala has called
the masjid even before that.
So there's a lot of technical aspects here that come from this
one Hadith.
Right so our lawyers our jurist have really gone into all of these
and pull extracted and extrapolated a lot of Messiah ill
and rulings about what can be done and what cannot be done.
See, because that day the prophets Allah Lord Islam said, when the
halal masjid or for who ermine, whoever enters the Masjid. So you
consider that area Muslim? He's safe. Woman duckula Bait woman
Dolla dolla it'd be Sofia and for her urban
whoever enters the house of Abu Sufyan. He is also safe. Woman of
Alacati he Baba for me
And the one who shuts his door and locks it on himself. He's also was
just stay in your house. You're also safe. Just don't come on mess
with us. Don't come out and fight.
But if no huddle had been the promises I had mentioned from
before, if no huddle, he needs to be taken care of, because he
probably had an idea that he had an idea that he must have been
there. That's why they came in informed him at the hotel is,
look, this is what he's doing. What should we do now? He's
holding on holding onto the cloth of the Kaaba. So there were four
of them. One was because of obviously loves him said, Roberto,
Roberto la mano, whom we're not going to give them some random
safety, laffy Hildon wala fie hiraman? Neither in the hill area,
which is outside the sanctified area, agenda, or just outside,
right.
Or in the Haram regardless, Hawaii this afternoon, okay, Kate, will
not eat Hila Dibner Hottel this one, and
McKees ignore suburb and Abdullah ignore or be subtle.
For those of you read history, that will be a surprise. I'm
delighted to be Sarah, because he is responsible for some of the
greatest conquest afterwards. In the Iraqi side. He is one of the
one of the great
you can say commanders who took many lands in the area, Abdullah
Nabi Surah, that's whose name you'll see. So he became Muslim.
So he was he was spared.
So even bizarre hacking by hockey devil related that there were four
men and two women as well, who had done some heinous crimes and they
were not. So in fact, in that narration, it says that aucto Whom
were in budget to move who Muhtar Nikki in a bit of sterile carrabba
You need to take care of them kill them, even if you find them
holding on to the cloth of the cover. You can't get a safer place
on the world in the world. But they had to be because the crime
was more important. The crime had to be dealt with. So ignore before
he became Muslim, he wasn't killed.
So now when Allah subhanaw taala says woman, the herder who can
Amina about the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Whoever
enters it, he is safe. What does that mean, then? If these people
aren't safe, then what does that I mean? Because obviously he was one
of these, ignore Hottel he was probably thinking that this is the
only place I can get safety trying to hold on to the verse. So how do
we relate the verse to this and relate the action of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam? Well, clearly, the professor Lawson was
the most knowledgeable about the Quran, and he does things
according to the worry, and he'd given clear indication, but that's
fine. What this is, is this is saying that whoever enters it is
considered to be safe, as was the custom of the time of Jehovah as
was the custom pre Islamic custom that anybody there. They would not
like in the Assurant home the four months that were considered the
safe months, nobody would fight there. If they really wanted to
fight the fight, they would defer the months.
Right.
Subhan I'm surprised nobody's doing that. Jews have done that to
coincide the celebrations with Christmas and so on. But
hamdulillah the Muslims aren't we're still fighting over the
days. Right. But yeah, they used to actually do Nessie they used to
switch over the month so they can carry on fighting and things like
that. So this is talking about a custom of Jamelia. However, that
doesn't sound very good, because in Islam, Islam came and gave even
greater sanctity to these places. So if that was the case, then that
should have been even more important in Islam.
So one opinion is that a person couldn't should not be killed in
the
butt, he should be
a forsaken. Nobody is allowed to speak to him or deal with him in
any way whatsoever. So he's eventually going to have to come
out to eat drink, to sustain himself to relieve himself, then
when he comes out, then you can kill him.
Right? That's according to some erla. They've kind of combined the
two. I hate to be speaking about killing. Right. But that's, this
is just technical aspects here.
And the third opinion is that whoever enters into Makkah, they
are free from the hellfire, which means it's a place of October.
So anybody who enters there, then it means that they can make Toba
they will do things that will protect them and give them
delivery from the hellfire. But if they've done a crime, that's a
worldly law that has to be taken. They're not going into a different
universe. You know, it's there still in this world.
The next hadith is related also from an assumed mnemonic or the
Allah one, where he says that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam
entered Mark
Amal Kumar, and in this one he makes it clear I am alpha t. In
the previous one did he say alpha T?
No, he didn't say alpha t. But it's assumed that if he had the
helmet on it must have been during the Congress. But in this one he
says it very clear the year of the Congress, he entered mcomber
Corolla. And which year was that? That was in the eighth year of
Hijra two years before the prophets, Allah lorrison left this
world. What are the ROTC he admitted for? And on his head was
this covering was this helmet, or this coat of this mail piece of
mail.
Now, we will be looking at some other Hadith in the next chapter,
where it says the Hanamaki yo Malfatti wanna hear a moment and
so the, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi, Salam entered mcomber
karma, and he had a black turban on.
So he and in this one, it said he entered mcomber Karma during the
conquest time in the year of the conquest, and he had a helmet. In
the other one, it says he had a black turban. So how do we
reconcile these Hadith?
Well, the there are numerous possibilities, everybody's
mentioning what they saw. And the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam
took off the the province of Assam took off his coat of mail, he took
off his armor, he took off the helmet. And then
he wore that a mama after that. So he put the Imam at the black
turban on after that, to give the hotbar with it. That's why it's
one of the suddenness of the hotbar to put an a mama on an imam
Iraqi and many of the other Hadith scholars have
preferred this kind of reconciliation, that he was that
and then he took it off and he put their email more on afterwards.
It's also possible though,
that he could have had their email more on as well when he entered
into Makkah
because it's possible he could have worked underneath
or as a protection because you've got a coat, a mail links. I mean,
these are Metal Links. The coat the piece of mail, it's made of
metal. So you want to wear something underneath it. So it's
possible.
Other say that he actually had it on top of his helmet that a mama
was on top of the helmet. There's a narration to that effect as
well. But many have preferred the fact that he took off the helmet
and then he put on the Imam afterwards.
But either way, both were observed and both are definitely
established. However he did it when he took it off for the man
Azera who understood the alone reports. When he took it off
Jarrod Julen a person came most likely Lubrizol, Eslami Rhodiola
one and he said, if no huddle is holding on to the cloth of the
Kaaba for Karla the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam said oke to
Lu
Killam Ibnu Shahab says
IGNOU Shahab says that it's also reached me in the transmission
that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam on that day was not a
Muharram. He did not go in there with the with the intention for a
haram, pilgrim sanctity to perform the Umrah, Hajj, whereas it's the
rule that normally anybody who goes into mcomber karma has to go
in the intention of Iran, you can't go in there. Even if you're
going to visit somebody in the Haram area. You have to go with
the intention of a haram put on the Haram and then at least do
your Umbra and then go and visit whatever you you know, whoever
you're visiting,
you can kind of casually go in and come out unless you live in the
hill.
Now, he says that it's reached me that the prophets Allah was not a
Muslim, is because he was not wearing the Haram he was wearing
clothing covering his hair, you know, which Muharram does not do.
So that's why he could have mentioned that.
There's a bit of a difference of opinion yesterday he could have
still been in a haram and this could have been an exception for
him and so on and so forth. But then there's some very clear
indication that he did he was not you know, he did not have an arm
you would not wear a murmur on your head. If you had a Raman can
understand that if it was for dura, if it was for need, then you
would wear a helmet because you're there's a an impending attack
that's likely or possible, but there's no need to earn a mama if
you're in Iran. That ends that chapter. But we move on to the
next chapter which is more about the turban of Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Let's read the Hadith first of this
chapter Bismillah who Manuel Rahim will be listener then we'll toss
him in Imam intermedia kala bourbon merger of your email with

mahato banaswadi here remember to the SMA
so in this chapter, which is chapter 16 of the book, there are
five Hadith The first one is related from Java. The next one is
related from M Jaffa ignore, ignore Herdade from his father,
Amber ignore her eighth. The third one is also related from Amberton
her eighth and the fourth one is related from abnormal but the hola
Juan and the fifth one is related from ignore bus or the hola Juan
the word remember in Arabic
anything that is tied around the head, that's what it means in
Arabic. So normally, it refers to a piece of cloth
of a certain length, but it could also the word a mama could also be
used for a helmet or for the middle for as we said earlier. So
it's a very general term that encompasses both
helmet or cloth that is tied around the head.
The first Hadith it's related, as we as we said, from
Jabra the Allah one he says Dr. Interview sal Allahu Allahu wa
Salam o Maka, Yeoman Fetty YT Hema with and soda entered the
prophets, Allah some entered mcomber Karma during the year the
day of the conquest, and he had on a black turban
he had on a black turban
in a hadith and Muslim, it makes it very clear, believe it haram
without a haram.
What is the benefit? Or what is the wisdom behind a black turban?
When
we there's a general encouragement as we read in the chapter on the
clothing of Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi wasallam towards white,
where the prophets of Assam clearly said that Bury Your Dead
in it, and your living should wear it. So what is the reason for
going against and taking something black? The black, the total
opposite of white and wearing the white? So there's a very
interesting discussion about the color black here. And the reason
that many orlimar have or the wisdom that many or other might
have noticed or discovered in it or considered in it is
even larger, for example says
you know, I keep mentioning Mohajer Alas, Kalani. I think some
of you may know who he is, but he's a name. If there's one Hadith
scholar
among
our history,
who you could consider to be a man of extensive knowledge. There were
many there were many. For example, His his teacher was
Iraqi, whose teacher with the hubby. And each one of these were
great. The kind of books especially in this particular
thread, the heavy his student, Iraqi historian Abner hedger, and
then so ut Zahawi. And so UT, these are some of the greatest
Hadith scholars, they were these stream of Shafi scholars these
were and it's very interesting that he lived he was a
contemporary of another Hanafi scholar, whose name was Medina
lyonie. And they were very competitive with each other. And
they were both writing
commentaries of Buhari so what he's most famous for, is a
commentary on Buhari, Sahil Buhari cultural body.
Right victory of the creator for toil birdie, victory of the
creatives called the commentary of Sahil Buhari
and
So they both wrote commentaries
as it is various stories about their competitive nature. Their
wives were supposed to be friends.
Right? So it's Allahu Allah, it's related that some say that one of
them used to get his students to go and listen to the others does.
And then he used to come back and report whatever he said. And then,
because one was a Hanafy, one was a chef, he had been 100 was a chef
a stone Shafi and IGNOU.
Sorry, buddy line, he was a
staunch Hanafy as such, so
everybody's trying to prove their motherhood through the Hadith and
give superiority over it. So they used to listen to the arguments of
the other, and then Reese, respond to them, include them in the book
and respond to them. There's also other opinions that
is to get the waves to, you know, take the book, sorry, take the
written folios as such, and look at them and take them back and
wallah, who I am how much of this is true, there was definitely a
competitive nature, it seems.
But you will notice that even in Hanafy works, you have to
acknowledge his status. I knew I love our he was great. But if no
one asked Kalani is considered to be one of the greatest.
According to one of my teachers whose English may not be, you
know, I'm sure if his English was more powerful, he would have come
even with a better word. But in his limited English, he calls him
a barrister of Hadith. Somebody who really knows his stuff. And if
you were to read his fertile body, just under any Hadith, you take
this chapter chapter on the turban of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam,
just his description, the way he brings together Hadith from the
various different books at a time when there was no database or
computer, you're wondering how he does this? You know, you're just
left totally astonished. And how does he do it? And the thing is
that there, the way the mind processes that information is
a lot more intuitive than the way a computer would do a search for
you, which would be quite pathetic. It just be a search, and
I'll give you about, you know, everywhere, what can you look for?
Okay, this word you can look for, but then that word could be in a
different meaning and another Hadith, whereas it's absolutely
amazing of how he's able to just bring everything relevant
together. Okay, well, then this question arises, but then there's
this hadith that describes this aspect of it, right? It's just
quite amazing the way they do it, and you can understand their
knowledge by that the how much knowledge they just had in their
head at that given moment.
So that's what we keep saying even larger, because when he says
something he's considered to be very balanced. Someone had the
thing they're considered to be quite lenient when they say a
hadith is dive or say, some are considered to be very strict and
overly strict, so you can't take their word for it. For example, if
Abner Tamia ignore Hazara at Daraa putting it to a certain degree.
Ignore Josie if they say a hadith is dive, you can't accept them for
it directly because they're known to be
extra strict. If somebody like Hakima telemovie
some say even your mama tell me the
ESA tell me the our oath. Some say
what's the there's a number of others. So UT, for example, they
consider to be a bit more lenient when they say a hadith is say, you
know, because they'll take some of the Hassane Hadith and according
to them, you will be considered Sahai. Right. But then when you
get people like Iraqi, if the hijab as Kalani the heavy if they
say something, you'll take it because they're considered to be
on the dot
right? So it's good to know these people because believe me, these
are some of our great and if they did not preserve according to one
of my teachers, if these people did not preserve the renewable
Hadith, we don't know where we would be today with it. So when
you say Blodgett, last Kalani Rahim Allah, we should make some
dua for him
and for all of the others,
right, so we were speaking about the wisdom behind the black
turban, the Prophet sallallahu, adopting a black turban on that
day.
So even though hudgell and escallonia Huhtala Hiya, Ali. He
says that maybe
as though the hikma of Black Sabbath, in Arabic Sawa means
Black Sabbath, it also means the majority huge population, right.
So it was black turban and black banner.
So, you know, the black banner that is from the Sunnah as such
So despite the fact of what's mentioned what in front of white
he says, this is indicating towards sue that solid black sue
that leadership
right leadership victory, right that kind of a meaning
which Allah subhanho wa Taala had given him today
if nostril Allah he will fit what are eaten as a Corona feeding
Allah Florida because as soon as maca was conquered, or was taken,
then all of the tribes that have just been holding back just
waiting to see what would happen, because they just seen this some
years before. Some decades before. They'd seen that anybody who tried
to attack maca were repelled by a divine force, as Abraham was. So
they wanted to see because in their hearts Islam had entered,
but they weren't able to accept it. Yeah, because they say well,
the people are Makkah and accepting it. And maca was really
considered to be they used to hold in great respect because of the
Kaaba. But when the Prophet Solomon came into Makkah and just
took it, then they became convinced so they became Muslim in
now huge numbers came in. So this was an indication towards that
symbolism towards that, that the the way the Prophet sallallahu
sallam was given distinction over all the other prophets in the way
this happened, that Allah subhanho wa Taala made maca out of all
places on this earth halal for him on that day to do for this for
this Congress. And he had never made it halal for anybody before
him, or after him also that how he would retain the leadership and
the sovereignty over mcomber carnamah and over all of the all
of the Muslim lands and his ummah, how the OMA will persevere and
will remain, and the dignity and the honor and the respect that
Islam respect. So these are things that the Roma have looked at, and
mentioned, just as it's mentioned, Surah Nasir Elijah and also liable
fats. So Black was probably more appropriate, just particular, Lee
for that.
Because it's an indication that black even if a spot comes on it,
you can't see it. So it's the most repelling of of dirt as such of
evil because it's black. It's the nothing can touch it.
And nothing can change it.
Your mum so UT has compiled a treaties on all of the things that
are related about Black. He's mentioned a number of Hadith and
durations in there not all of them are Sahai necessarily, but in in
some others, it mentions that some of the whole effect of the ABA
seen the salient feature then color was black. It was known
about them that they used to dress in black and all of the rest of
it. This is
after the owner of Moto Cymbala Harun Rashid son, Mark Dawson
villa,
they say that
they, they had this belief
that the Prophet sallallahu is on the turban he wore when he entered
mcomber Corolla that was passed on to his uncle, Abba, the Hola,
Juan.
Right. And it then remained among his children until he went into
when they became the leafs. So they used to pass it on to the
next leaf, the next Halevi to be passed on. And he used to be one
at least initially, each time a new leaf came into,
came on the throne as such.
It was then in Egypt, according to our commentator here,
says he was in Egypt,
where it was being protected there.
Among the children of the whole effort that had remained of the
Abbasids today were Allahu Allah, if it's in Egypt, sorry, most of
the artifacts and the religious relics from Egypt were taken to
Turkey. So Allah Who island where this is today.
Imam will now be another Hadith commentator. He says that there is
nothing wrong. I mean, just speaking about how do you wear a
turban now.
So he says there's nothing wrong with wearing a hat that is fitting
to the head. Maybe even if it's slightly raised from the middle,
underneath the Obama so a mama does not have to be worn on its
own. You can wear it with a hat. You could also wear it a hat
without an E mama. So now he has made that very clear that you
could wear a hat without an E mama. The reason is that there are
there are there are some who say that
a hat on its own is what the machine can do.
You shouldn't wear hats on their own. But that is a very weak
opinion. Because Allah Minogue has made that very
Clear. He says that because it's mentioned from the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa salam that that was the case you could wear
both
of them. The superior thing is an imam with that.
And this seemed to be like the tradition among the Muslims
throughout the world for a very long time.
I think it's only retained in Afghanistan now. Where it's such a
culture that a person won't have a beard will have a turban on that.
Right
Subhanallah the next hadith is Hadith number 113, which is
related from Jaffa ignore the Hadith
from his father, I'm looking to hurry or the hola Juan, I saw a
suit allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
I saw a black turban on Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam.
This hadith is general he doesn't say during the conquest of Makkah,
the previous one made it that it was during the conquest of Makkah.
This one he says I just saw a black turban on the hair over on
the head of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam.
Could be during the conquest, it could be some other time during
the hotbar or another time as well. In general Walla, Harlem
could have been on a Friday or at any other time.
The next hadith is 114, which is also related from the same Sahabi
that
this one is a bit more specific. He says that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam hottub, a nurse
gave a sermon delivered a sermon to the people he gave a hotbar
while he emailed Mattoon soda, and he had a black turban on him on
him.
There is another version which says hottub a nurse yomo Fatima
aka
that this hotbar was given during the conquest of Makkah, after the
person has been entered. And his football was given by the door of
the Kaaba.
Not on a member, according to one opinion, was just by the door of
the Kaaba, he gave the fatwa
there's a hadith in Muslim which is rated from
again the same number of the Hadith and a b He He says it is as
though I am looking at Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam on the
member and he had a black turban on and he had
left one of the ends. It says in one Hadith both ends. And in the
other one, it says just one end of it, the tail of it, he had left it
dangling between his shoulder blades. So that is the strongest
of the positions of how you leave the the tail end of the of the
Imam.
However, the Hadith, that's another version of the Hadith,
looking at the main Hadith of the chapter, the way Imam Tirmidhi has
related it, it seems like the Sunnah will not be just in a
conquest to wear a black turban, but it will be anytime because the
Sahaba has mentioned in general, and he did not think it was
specifically for that position. If he thought it was specifically for
that case, or for that occasion, you would have mentioned it, but
since you mentioned it in general it could be for any time
because according to the Hadith it says that it was on a member it
means that it could not have been in Makkah because he makes it very
clear that that chutzpah which was given on the conquest was not on a
member it was by the door. So where he relates in another
version that it was on a member he's relating about another
incident and that must have been in Madina Munawwara
that's why one of the other author, the author of Masabi and
Masabi most likely Bumblebee he's mentioned this in the chapter on
hotbar of Joomla.
Right, it really Allahu Anhu also wore a black turban
when the day that Rothman with the Allahu Anhu was martyred
person or the Allah who used to give the hotbar with black clothes
on.
He used to have a black dress on and I've been talking about black,
black, black, you've got justification today, I see a lot
of black today again, it's the most popular color in London,
among business people and school.
They're changing you know, with all these red blazers and green
blazers and
Hustler the Allahu Anhu used to give a hutzpah with black clothes
on and a black turban on he must have looked awesome.
Totally awesome. As Americans would say.
It was Zubaydah the Allahu Anhu used to give a hot wire with a
black turban. Margaret the Allahu Anhu used to also wear a black
turban and a black jumper. And us Abdullah, Hebrew Jessa and Amara
are the hola Juan
used to do the same
amount of the allotted amount of the asset. Here's a photo of Juwan
Kufa while he was the Emir there used to wear a black turban it
said a dividend was saved. There
He is the leader of the terrain. He used to wear black in both
aids. If not Abbas, the Allahu Anhu used to wear a black turban
used to use a black turban, and the holofoil abbacy. You and our
buses they used to wear, they used to use a lot of black turban. And
likewise many other people who give hot, hot leaves kotoba and
others. They used to all they've worn black over the centuries,
mainly because of the way the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
entered Mark Kumbhakarna during that time and give that hotbar and
he had a black turban on that's, that's why today it seems like
it's more of a salient feature of the Shiites. You see a lot of the
Imams, they wear black turban, black clothing, a black mitula a
black, one of those Shoal kinds of things. Some of the Saudis they do
it as well embroidered with gold. Right, lots of gold, not real
gold, but you know, a gold band around it. So people have taken
this from Rasulullah sallallahu. Listen from that one occasion,
because it's mentioned so prominently.
The problem we have is that if an associate wears a black turban
today that many people come and say don't I've had this set to
myself by two people don't wear that looks like Shiites man, you
know, so there is a base but if enough people enough suddenly
start wearing it to be fine, then it won't be a shared thing
anymore.
And the reason why people have taken this as a good thing to
follow is because the Prophet salallahu Salam he was given
victory on that day. So the only undefeated Nasir and why isn't
they say there's there's a lot of respect and honor to be gained
through it as opposed to a lot of some gained
go to be says that the Prophet Solomon did not wear anything else
Black was only the turban that's been related from him about that.
But it's fine. Haroon Rasheed asked Ozeri about it. Oh, no, she
was from the, from the Abbasids. He asked him Oza imamo ze about
it. He said that he disliked it. He said you don't get a braid that
sever clothing black Do you?
What do you do nowadays?
Those who follow the pagans, and the Wiccans and these weird
groups, they will lose a black everything's black, make their
lips black. Okay, shaytaan.
And you've got, you know, you've got others we'd like that kind of
weird, you know, out of the odd stuff. May Allah protect us. So he
says, like, you have fluffy hours, you don't get a bride that's
adorned with black. Whether you love Buffy him or hate him. Right?
What are you the beefy him or him? No person in Iran give says they
love baking it meaning you were waiting that whether you can feed
him or yet and now that you have showed you, you're dead with it so
well, you know, what's the big deal about it? You know, the whole
clothing and everything that Imam sada is established? No doubt. So
email, no, he says that in the Hadith, in this hadith, this gives
permissibility of using black when you make hotbar. Although he says
White is superior. I
just mentioned one more point. Because I think that's an
important point. People want to know, now how long the Imam is
supposed to be. So we'll discuss that in a bit more detail next
week. But in general, because I know this was a question somebody
asked me a while back and I said is going to come in the
intersection. So what's been related about that is
you can't it's very difficult to find anything very clear cut about
how long Rasulullah sallallahu imamo was you can just about find
that okay, he wore a black a mama. But this that, okay, you know, it
was this long and so on. It's very difficult to find a very sahih
Hadith about that.
So whenever he says
that YBNL Josie said that I looked at I looked and researched through
so many books. I looked through the Sierra books, I looked through
the history books, that maybe somebody's mentioned the narration
about the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam size of his email,
and I couldn't find anything until somebody reliable who I have some
trust on. He says he did find something in Imam no is writing
in which he said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam had a
short a mama. And he had a long turban as well. He had a short
one, and he had a long one. The short one was seven cubits seven
cubits that means three and a half meters,
just less than three nanometers. one qubit is about 4849
centimeters. It's acuity is essentially from your fingertip to
your elbow. Right. So that could be different in different people,
but it's about half a meter. So if we say seven cubits seven lira,
we're talking about three and a half meters or just less than that
three to three and a half meters.
And the long one was 12
virar, which means six
meters. That must have been a big one. It's mentioned in the mother
Hall, that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam is a murmur was seven
virar. So that seems to be the very popular number seven the
right which means three and three to three and a half meters. And it
just mentioned seven he doesn't mention he had a short and a long
one.
Either way,
what we do learn from the Sierra that have always allowed Islam had
moderation in everything. So when it comes to the turban as well, it
needs to be something that is moderate and something that is
most beneficial for people. So if the Imam is so big, that the
person is gonna have to manage his head when he's walking, right and
make sure he doesn't destabilize. And it's just so big because some
people just go overboard with these things. Then he says as has
been an according to the commentator, he says, as has been
seen in many jurist and many call these that this used to be part of
the official dresses such in the Muslim lands if you look even
until in in Russia in sorry, in Uzbekistan, in Bukhara, Samarkand.
If you see some of the pictures from 100 years ago, you'll see the
same thing, big turbans, right, it was a national kind of dress.
That's why anybody according to some aroma, anybody walking
without a head covering a man, of course a woman covering as well.
But the man if he was without a hat, you couldn't accept him to
give testimony in court.
Because part of the dress
was part of the dress. There's an Egyptian scholars shahidul co
three part of the earth Manny's who's writing this about 100 years
ago, he's got a book about how it's so mcru, to recite, to
perform your salad without a hat on.
Right, that's in the Hanafi books that's in the books. How it's so
mcru To do that, today, you go to a place like Egypt, and more than
half the people are not wearing hats quite casually just praying
without it. In fact, they even questioning that is it really
sadhana. And yet about 100 years ago, you've got somebody insisting
on it so much that you're saying you're solid is McLuhan is putting
all the evidence is out there. So a lot of this is to do with
tradition. Right? The hat tradition was something that was
really, especially in Turkey was vehemently opposed. In fact, the
fez that the Turkish people used to wear the Muslims used to wear
that was banned by Ataturk or
Kemal Ataturk. So according going back to this, it seemed that it
needs to be moderate, not so big that it's difficult to manage and
not so small that it doesn't look like much, that's why you have
with some people, they actually look like a bandage. Right, with
some people the way their turban is, it's so small, that it's just
like one two, it looks so small and is really like perched on top
of the head like a nest, right? It is not the way to determine your
weight to have and do it properly. So it says your Jadwiga was
certain it needs to be something in moderation.
Inshallah, we'll look at some of the other details about the but
the main student that we do understand from the hadith is that
the the tail end of it if you leave any hanging, should be at
the back did the Prophet Allah some always do that it says in
some cases, no. Because if you're in battle, you want to tie it all.
You don't want any loose ends. But other times in his giving Courtois
it's mentioned very clearly that he did leave it dangling below
beneath
the back of his head,
between the shoulder blades, and again, that should be the max is
approximately halfway down the back. And even in that one it
should not be so long that it's just flowing. Everything should be
done in moderation. And it also says that when you wear such a
turban
then especially if you're not used to wearing it, it brings about a
lot of makes you feel a bit like you're showing off because you're
attracting attention to yourself. So what should you do so they said
that well just wear it and just fight with yourself
that's moja just fight with yourself take out the eventually
you will get used to eventually to be able to overcome shaytani use
anything to spoil our intention and our our actions to just
overcome it. So what I would encourage ourselves is that we
many people find it very difficult to wear a turban
they can't see themselves with it on right
so while I'm sure there's people saying here like I'm not gonna
wear a turban
wear one. There's many other wisdoms mentioned it that
increases the handsomeness of a person right. There was a scholar
that came from India. He saw one of the scholars of England he had
his show was torn. Right. And he commented somebody from India
commenting and somebody from England.
We would never see an island like this in India.
Right with a torn shoe. You know the front parts between
laughing
All right. So this caller asked him why he said no this would
because I guess there is such a distinction there between poor and
thing and if you're just poor people will look down upon you. So
there's a reason why you the other might have been actually
encouraged in general to to look after themselves to dress the
part, the province that hasn't wore a black turban right. What
did you wear the black turban for? There's a reason to make uncertain
impact. Right. So the a mama has a certain impact, it just makes it
very different than somebody who's just kind of sitting around giving
a lecture. The Imam it does make a big difference.
Going back to the basics, practical aspect, start off with
trying reading in your house, get your wife used to it. Right your
household used to it. Come to Juma with it one day, kind of like just
come and sit on the side so nobody sees you. Right? You get used to
it. But at least do it once or twice so that you fulfill we
fulfill the Sunnah.
We fulfill the Sunnah of Al Hamdulillah in this area. Allah
has made it so easy that people walk around in turbans is not a
problem at all Muslim, non Muslim, no problem at all. So what's your
problem then? It's a sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam just
to at least once or twice in your life. May Allah give us the Tofik
to act on every sunnah we want to make. We want to encourage
everybody to really make dua for Syria. And Allah subhanho wa Taala
deal with these,
these criminals,
because they, you can tell they're dying, because they're doing
things which no human, normal human beings would say until now,
we would say that the Israelis would do such a thing. But these
people have taken, they put the Israelis to shame it seems with
what they're doing now Hala, quality level a complete
indiscriminate killing absolutely no law and they keep blaming on
terrorists. They're given terrorists, bad name SubhanAllah.
It's not a joke. It's just really serious. These people are a beef.
And the only reason they can do this because no Muslim could do
this as bad like that. If they had an email in their hand, these
people are not because they know Sadie's anyway, so there's a big
ideological difference. It's an aspect of survival. Because at the
end of the day, they are absolute minority with a lot of power. They
cannot lose their power. They don't want to lose that power. So
they will do everything. It's like a dying man trying to just do
everything he can. You can tell these acts of desperation. The
days are coming. But it's difficult, believe me, the
brothers and sisters in Syria, and I've studied there for a while.
It's nice people, very nice people, and especially hammer. I
remember I went there and a brother, he insisted that I stay
over and he hosted me for night would not let me go, even though I
just wanted to be there for a few hours. I wanted to be there for a
few hours and come back because I class the next day, he wouldn't
let me go and he was just so honored to have you know, to host
us He did it by force. But eventually we agreed because we
just saw how he was and may Allah may Allah preserve him, may Allah
preserve him and preserve everybody else there. So there's
some really nice people there. Do some we need to make dua, we
really need to make dua after every Salat, that we perform for
these bone sisters there because they're killing babies and
children. They keep killing everybody, they killing anybody,
in a violent way. It is killing people just to try to dry fear.
But these people are not going to stop anywhere. They've been
silenced for so long. And humans cannot remain silence for that
long.
You know, you have to convince them to something you can't. You
can't make them something you can humans are human beings. They're
not machines that you can, you know, every human has a different
story. Every human has a feeling. And people don't recognize that.
May Allah subhanaw taala give them some sense and may Allah subhanaw
taala give the strength to
the muslimeen to bear this with patients and may Allah subhanaw
taala grant them victory and may Allah subhanaw taala abandon
success. It's really important. We don't we can't we don't we don't
speak about them every time but it's something we need to at least
do to offer for each time. And I'm sure there are a lot of relief
organizations are trying to do their best through this. There's
lots of refugees now in Turkey and the surrounding areas. Beirut and
sorry, in Lebanon and in so these people are there, you know,
40,000 50,000 people that have left their home and so on know
what's going to happen.
So we need to help them send whatever you can send whatever
money you can shell out to these relief organizations, that trusted
relief organization that will get it to them Insha Allah, Allah
