00:00:00 --> 00:00:04
			Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim, I have
a question here. That's generally
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			I've had this question asked to me
a number of times. What is the
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			wisdom behind
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:13
			having the loud prayers at night?
mcgarrybowen Asia, and then Fajr
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:17
			and having the silent inaudible
prayers during the daytime, like
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			the heart? And also, what's the
wisdom behind this? Well, the
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			answer to any question like this,
the first answer and the primary
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			answer and the most essential
answer to all of this is that
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:29
			because this is the way Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi. Salam did it.
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:33
			And because Islam is based on
submission, this is why we do it.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			However, in terms of determining
the wisdom behind that because
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			many of the commands of Islam as
such that you can actually
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			determine the wisdom and you can
understand it from a very
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:45
			practical perspective. So looking
at this issue, I think the
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:49
			conclusion for all of this is that
it's a matter of opposites. The
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:54
			night is a time for calmness,
serenity, and tranquility. And
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			that's why that's the time when
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:01
			it's told that you read the solid
aloud, so that you enjoy your
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:06
			reading. And it's kind of going
against the darkness in it, and
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:09
			the silence and the serenity of
the time. And the tranquility of
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			the time to actually read it
loudly so that you can actually
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:16
			enjoy it, while on the other hand
in the daytime, it's a time of
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:21
			activity, sound, noise, and so on
and so forth. So at that time, you
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			actually told to do the opposite.
And you're told to read you're
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:30
			told to read it in a calm state,
because in an inaudible way, so
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:34
			you're not reading out aloud.
That's basically the crux of the
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:38
			matter. I'm just going to read to
you from different scholars what
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:43
			they make what they make from
this. Allah Makoto. He says that
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48
			in the national at the lady here,
I shall do what our como Kedah. So
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:52
			what he's saying here is that this
is a shadow of forgotten banal
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			Calbee. Well, bizarre he was
somebody will listen.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:00
			This is about the the night, he's
saying that this is the time when
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:03
			you will have more of a
correspondence between your heart
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:08
			and what you're reading, in terms
of both your sight, your hearing,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:13
			and your tongue, because all other
sounds are diminished at that
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17
			time. It's a state of tranquility
and serenity, and calmness so that
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:22
			you can really enjoy the entire
experience of your reading, both
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:27
			through hearing it both through
hearing it and everything to do
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			with that there's just a better
experience of doing that at
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:33
			nighttime because of the calmness
of the time. As opposed to the
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			daytime. When you can't get this
you can achieve this during the
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:39
			time because there's just so much
noise generally around at the
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:42
			time, because Allah says in the
Quran in the lack of in a hurry.
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:46
			Subhan taweelah You have great
activity during the day the word
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:50
			Subhan actually refers to
swimming, that there's a constant
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:54
			effort during the daytime to
remain afloat and to get by and
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			fulfill whatever your needs are of
the day.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			So that's why at that time, it's
told that you read it silently. It
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:05
			gives you that kind of change of
scene at that time. In the photo
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09
			montage it mentions Bucha
collateral jagriti mahiya. What is
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:15
			the point of the audible prayers
why do we read them audibly? He
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:19
			says, Well Allah and Allah Makana
Lane Mahalalel Hello. That it's
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:23
			possible that because the night is
a time of seclusion and isolation,
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			while three Buffy is summer, and
it's a time when intimate
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:33
			discourse it works out very well.
Shara geography is hot on the love
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:37
			the tea Mona geratol Abdullah
Robbie. So at that time, it was
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:42
			legislated that you read aloud so
that you can actually express the
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:47
			pleasure of your reading and enjoy
it because of the serenity around
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:52
			you. And when it comes to the
daytime. So then he says when the
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:55
			Harlem Makana Mahala Shiva Hill
What if they love to be nurse Tala
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			Buffy Hill is roar or to Liberty
Hill is roar, which means that
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			when the daytime or when the
daytime is a time of great
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:05
			occupation and activity and
distractions probably as well and
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:09
			meeting with people and so on,
then that is where silence or an
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:13
			inaudible reading is required. Lee
Adam is sold out here to Healy
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			tomorrow we will manage that.
Because it's not the time to have
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			an intimate discourse at that
time. You know, if you're trying
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			to have an intimate discourse, and
there's a lot of sound around you,
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:24
			is generally difficult. That's why
then he says we're all haters so
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:28
			who be sadati Laila that the
morning prayer, the Federal prayer
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			has also been considered to be a
night prayer. Liana walk the who
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:34
			lays a man in the shower, Nisha
Hillier, Dutton kaomoji moi,
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:37
			right. The reason that's been
connected to the night prayers is
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			because also at that time, people
are calm, that is not really a
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:43
			time of great activity. It starts
after that. And he says, this is
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			just like your mother tomorrow. So
the reason why Julia is also
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:49
			allowed prayer or Eid is allowed
prayer is because that's also a
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:54
			time when people are specifically
focused on this worship. You know,
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:57
			they've said that they've freed
themselves up for the gym, or at
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			least that's what you expect
people and that's why Muslim
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			countries
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			He's generally have a holiday on
this day. Right? So that's the
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:06
			idea here. It will pay him in his
airline we'll walk them in he
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:10
			says, Well I'm at the freeze
Boehner Salah delayed or Salaat in
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:13
			the heart. The difference between
the day the salaat of the day so
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16
			out of the night will Jerry will
Sr. For variety Manasa T will
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:21
			hikma he says that in terms of
reading one loudly and the other
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:25
			in audibly. The reason for the
difference between them, he says
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:30
			is is has an extreme as an
extreme. You can say conduciveness
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:35
			to the time and wisdom for which
it is done for in the Lail Madonna
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:40
			Marvin naughty who do in Swati was
so Kunal Harakat well Ferrara Hill
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:41
			Kulu wish Dima ill human.
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:48
			Masha Tita been the hara for NA
Roma Hulu's mahalo subhead Toriel
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:53
			bilkul ball button. Will Lael Maha
Numata tilaka will be listen. He
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:56
			says because the nighttime is
generally a time when you expect
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:01
			sounds to be subdued, and
movements to be diminished, the
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:06
			heart to be unoccupied. And for a
person's resolutions to be all
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:10
			together that are generally in the
daytime. They are spread around
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14
			and occupied with other things. So
that's why the reason is that the
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:19
			daytime is a time for intense
activity with both the heart and
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:24
			the body is involved in that kind
of activity while the nighttime is
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:28
			the time when the heart and body
can come together and focus on
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:32
			something and the ears, the ears
and the tongue they can work
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:38
			together. That's why he says that
it is the sunnah to read long Cara
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:42
			insalata Fajr over any other
Salaat the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:47
			Sallam used to read, you know
numerous verses 60 to 100 verses
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:50
			in solitude measure. And
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:54
			Abu Bakr Siddiq are the Allahu
Anhu used to recite Surah Baqarah
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:58
			Amara de la nuestra recite Surah
Nahal solitude Bani Israel so that
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:01
			unit suited use of he used to read
he's read those long sutras there.
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			Because generally,
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:09
			when it comes to the morning time,
when it comes to this morning
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:15
			time, the heart is undistracted
the heart can be more focused from
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:20
			anything else. And it's a time
when it's possible to read aloud
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			and really enjoy it. So that's
what he mentions. That is
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			generally that is the case unless
you've got an exceptional solid
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:32
			like Jumuah or a Dane or is this
car Kosovo, etc. were in that case
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:36
			because people have gathered for
that particular reason at that
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:39
			time and they're not distracted
with anything else and they've got
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:42
			a particular focus in that case,
that in those cases as well. They
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:46
			do um, loudly. So that's basically
the wisdom behind one of the
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			wisdoms behind when it's done
loudly or when it's done silently
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:53
			during the day. May Allah subhanaw
taala give us the best of our
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			prayers during the night and in
the daytime. And may Allah
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:58
			subhanho wa Taala accept from all
of us after that run and Al hamdu
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:59
			Lillahi Rabbil Alameen
