The messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam he used
to do a tikaf in the last 10
days of Ramadan.
Until Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala took his life.
And then after that his wives, they don't
have tikaf after that.
What are you guys? And the hadith is
Mutafakun Aireh.
What does Iftikaf mean? We need to stand
over the issue of tikaf for a moment.
The poet says,
The first line he mentions it's a'arif,
the definition of Iatikaf.
Iatikaf my brothers and my sisters, it is
to remain in the
Masjid. For the purpose of worshipping Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
Are you with me guys?
Remaining in the masjid for the purpose of
what?
Gaining closeness to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. And
that's very very important guys.
Because when an individual now wants to go
into the Masjid
because he wants to sleep, is he gonna
get the roads back together? No. He has
to be for the purpose of what?
I am now what's getting closer to Allah
subhanahu wa
ta'ala. And the hikman behind that, together my
brothers and my sisters,
is that the heart now becomes devoted to
who? Allah
And you keep yourselves away from all types
of distractions.
So if an individual has his phone, guys,
he's on his
phone.
He's in the Masjid and outside the Masjid
at the same time. What's the point?
Because these phones, guys,
is a very very big distraction that has
destroyed the lives of many. Not just what
you said at the time, it's destroying their
lives.
The guys become addicted to it. The poet
he says,
He ended up getting the internet. You know
the word internet is an English word, right?
He put in the Arabic line of poetry.
That's how bad it became.
I began to dislike the Internet.
And then my, you know, my my chest
became so tight.
And the reason why I hate the net
is for a number of issues,
a number of reasons.
And from these reasons is what? It is
a
it's a very deep ocean.
You find that ends up wasting so much
of your time.
Me, when I'm in Medina, guys, I don't
have Internet.
Whoever wants to die can die, whoever wants
to live can live.
I went there to study, and I know
if I have Internet, I know myself.
I'm gonna get very very I'm gonna feel
very very sorry for all those, you know,
mothers and sisters and brothers who are going
through problems, and I'm gonna spend so much
of my time sending voice notes, dealing with
this. I'm gonna struggle to deal with it.
Allah and my brothers
and my sisters, it was the biggest nihmah
that Allah gave me when I went to
the Deelah.
First day, when I when I went to
the Internet, I went to the phone shop
to buy Internet.
I forgot my money.
And the next day,
Again, I forgot my money. I'm thinking I've
got it. And then I realized, what? I
was in a different thought.
3rd day
well, like I said, I'm not exaggerating.
I walked in. The guy goes, he doesn't
have because I was looking for, the modems
that we put the SIM inside. What do
you call it?
Router. Router.
I was looking for the router. He goes,
oh, brother, it's finished.
He goes, come back tomorrow.
I'll go back on the 4th day. Wallahi
stood at the door. He's like, Mohammed, don't
you think there's Hikma behind why there was
3 days you couldn't find it?
And you know this is gonna busy you.
You got the 4 corners of the world
people contacting you.
I'm all like, guys.
If you really, really wanna memorize,
you're gonna have to get rid of your
Internet at the time of memorization.
You really would have to.
As a brother, I mentioned this before ago,
some of my YouTube channel.
He said to me, Abutaim, I can't memorize
man. You really can't.
I said to him, Akhi, get rid of
your phone, brother.
Because I sit for hours, I can't even
go have a page.
So switch off your phone. He was one
of them guys. Every time he messages me,
every time I message him, Ubaid Shah is
online.
He's online very quickly.
Like, ding. Me, I switched up all my
notifications on my phone. I don't wanna know,
brother.
Please, just let me live.
Let me learn. Let me study.
Only when I go in and out of
the jammer, there's like, you know, some Internet
through the jammer, it gets connected.
That's when I ask the people's question offline.
Because I didn't go in order to be
the Mufti Salam,
one in Madinah, guys.
And in order to be the Mufti to
ask people's questions, I wanna study.
I wanna learn. If you wanna learn, guys,
you really have to do something by your
phone.
So point of the matter is,
people come into a tikaf and they're on
their phones. It's inside and outside at the
same time.
Inside and outside at the same time.
Also, what tends to happen sometimes, guys, and
this defeats the purpose of Iktikaf.
The
place where he sleeps has become like a
station.
You know a train station?
Guys know what train station is? Or bus
station? What do bus station and train station?
What happens there?
It's a meeting point. Right?
It's a meeting point for you to take
the bus.
Everybody crowds there, they get together, and so
on and so forth.
That's what's become.
It's called it's called it's called shahi.
You read me, guys.
Instead of him now beating himself with worship
at night, the guy's got his his guy
who's also got his hallelujah.
The whole place is circulated. People are coming
there. They're chilling, relaxing,
or chillaxing as they say.
What's the point of your Atikav?
This is not atikav, guys. It really isn't.
When does the take place?
Last
week. Zayi? Anytime. Anytime.
Anytime of the year. More recommended in the
month of Ramadan and even more recommended last
time.
Even if it is for one moment.
Even
if it is for a moment.
Obviously with what?
With the intention of what?
Doing the tikaf.
Who's made the tikaf when they came to
the masjid?
You made
He made it right now.
He made it right now. And to the
marriage, some scholars they say, one night or
one day.
And they took that from the hadith of
Umar Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu. So, ma'am, when
he said,
He said in Jahiliya,
Omar is saying this, I made a vow
that I'm going to do a tikaf for
a night in the Hazir
Haram.
Guys.
And he ended up doing it for a
night. So they said, okay, the least is
what? A night or a day.
When,
inshaAllah, this issue is quite broad.
Perhaps, you know, we wanna open the door
for people to get rewarded inshaAllah.
Is there any verses that you guys know
about with the Wasabdikaaf?
Who am I giving a hadith?
Okay. We hear about him all the time
He was a student Imam Ahmed. He asked
him, do you know any hadith that speak
about the virtue of the atikaf? He said,
I don't, except narrations are weak.
So what we're doing it for?
Brothers and sisters, the mere fact that the
messengers of Allah Alaihi Wasallam done it, and
also his wife has done it after he
passed away,
and continue to do so.
It's enough of an honor.
You have a perfect example in the mess
of Allah,
and it doesn't stop there.
Who before him done it?
This is a Sunnah of your forefathers,
Ibrahim and Ishmael.
And if you imitate them in doing this
act,
They are the ones that Allah has guided
and take their guidance as a guidance.
You with me guys? Allah told you to
take their guidance as a guidance.
Who is he going to be with?
Those who Allah has bestowed his favors upon
them?
Prophets
The martyrs. The martyrs.
And
what an excellent company to be in.
I'm gonna ask you guys a question, what
is the Hikma behind it being specified for
the last 10 days?
Why the messengers are doing the last 10
days?
It's to get a little
Jamil,
before that, I'll give you guys
Why? Because he was looking for.
Then I ended up doing a
in the second 10.
Then it was said to me,
it is in the last 10 days.
Meaning,
the last 10 days.
Last
10
days. What about the women?
Can you?
Yes. Yeah.
Yeah. So yes. Yes. Yes. Some said no.
Some said that? Yes. Yes.
They can do.
3 conditions.
First one is
She has to be clean from her menses.
While the second condition is
you got like 30 women,
and you will say, hey, guys,
do you think there's gonna be a problem?
It's gonna be a problem.
He might become infatuated in this country just
because of hearing her her voice, right?
Them laughing, joking, that might hit his heart.
1 just listening to a woman could really
destroy his heart. Am I wrong for saying
that, guys?
That could really possibly happen.
And then I take off, what is the
behind it?
That one's heart becomes fully what? Devoted to
Allah as a way he's not distracted.
Especially if the guy is not married,
and he can hear the women
speaking, joking, laughing, It could really really affect
his heart.
3rd condition is
The husband gives a permission.
What's the second
one? There's no fit or not.
It's not permissible law for for a woman
to fast
while her husband is there with her,
accept with his permission. Are you with me,
guys?
If a woman now wanted to fast, a
voluntary tired fasting,
She's not, except with his permission.
You guys with me? Because he might need
her. He might wanna, you know, get intimate
with her. And if she's fasting, you can't
do that.
And the guy might end up being deprived.
Especially being in a society where
there's so much Shirdana.
He comes running into the house, the messula
has done that one time. He end up
seeing a lady, he went home and he
had
done his thing, you
know. So now, especially in that time, it
wasn't even as bad as this time. He
runs into the house and then he finds
his
wife asking. What's he gonna do?
If you're a guy, that'd be cool.
Anyways, read between the lines.
