00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			In this sitting, we will have breaks in
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:22
			between
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			when going through these Hadith, Dahi, Bukhari and
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Muslim. You could also say that we are
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			studying the Hadith in the kitab called 'Umnatil
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			Hakam' And in this book, Umnatul Hakam,
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			all the hadith are Matafikun Ali.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			Buhari and Muslim, they have agreed upon the
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			hadith in Umritul Hakam and that's what makes
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			this book distinct from other books as well.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			And obviously, their Masdar is what? The origin
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47
			is that these hadith have been taken from?
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			Bukhari and Muslim.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			I would have like to speak about the
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			Mu'alifrahima Allahu Ta'ala, the author of the kitab,
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			but because of the timing
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			sha Allahu ta'ala I'm just going to cover
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			some of these Hadith as quickly as possible
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			because there's a lot to go through
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			and
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			So InshaAllah Ta'ala, I'm going to try and
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			take as much as possible in the sitting
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			that we have and then we're gonna finish
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			in another sitting InshaAllah
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			Ta'ala.
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			Because I'm always known not to finish whatever
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			I get taught to finish. You see, so
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			I'm gonna try Insha'Allah Ta'ala and if we
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			get time later on, I'll speak a bit
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			about the my alifrahi, Mawlahu Ta'ala. So the
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			first hadith, my brothers and my sisters,
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			The Messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam, The Messenger sallallahu
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			alaihi wasallam, said in this hadith, do not
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			fast a day or 2 before the month
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			of Ramadan,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			except for an individual.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			He used to observe a habitual fasting,
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			and in that case it is permissible for
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			him. So inshallah wa ta'ala is speaking a
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			bit about each part of the hadith, here
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he said,
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			do not precede the month of Ramadan.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:33
			With what? By fasting a day or 2.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			Here this is my brothers and my sisters,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			this laam here is laamun nahi.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			And you will learn this when you study
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:44
			When you find a Laam, which is a
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			Laam of prohibition,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			enters upon a
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			present tense.
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			Like here this word, takaddamoo
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:51
			is what?
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			Some
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			of you might not necessarily understand exactly what
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			I'm saying because you wouldn't need some sort
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			of, you know, background with regards to the
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:01
			Arabic language.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			While the but if it enters now the
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			Islam, which is the lamb of prohibition,
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:06
			k,
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:08
			then
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:11
			that would indicate the act being impermissible
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			and haram for a person to do.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:15
			Okay.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:16
			Even
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:17
			Haqqim
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			He has some lines of poetry where he
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:22
			tells us, when we know that an act
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:22
			is what?
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			Impermissible prohibited. He
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			said,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			Okay? So Afa'alul Khamsa, which comes in the
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			seerah,
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			the wording
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:35
			of
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:41
			and also
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			If the lambs enters upon it, you're going
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			to find that the noon at the end
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:46
			of the word
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:57
			for a person to fast a day or
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			2 before the
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			month of Ramadan.
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			Then the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			said, Beasomiyomin
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:05
			walayomain.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			Hear the word som inshaAllah ta'ala, I'm going
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:09
			to stand over it for a moment. I
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			saw my brothers and my sisters linguistically,
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			who can tell me what it means?
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			Alimsad jazakallahu khairan. It means to withhold from
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:20
			something.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:21
			Linguistically,
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			it means to withhold from something. If I
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			say to you, you need to do soom
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			from your Instagram. What does that mean?
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			You have to stay away and withhold from
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			using Instagram. If I say to you have
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			to do som from Facebook
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			that means you have to withhold
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			from using Facebook.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			If I say to you need to do
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			some from your girlfriend this month
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			because it is haram and it's going to
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:48
			destroy your Ramadan. It means you have to
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:50
			stay away from her, you have to withhold
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:50
			from her.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			And this linguistic mean you can also find
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			it in the Quran
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:55
			in which
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			When Jibreel came to her,
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			she responded back and what did she say?
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			I seek refuge in Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			from yourself. If you are somebody who has
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:09
			a taqwa.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			Wa alaikhi my brothers and my sisters. Then
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:13
			he said to her,
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			I'm only a messenger that has been sent
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:18
			to you.
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			At the end of the Qissa, when she
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:23
			became really sad, you know, Jibril Alaihi Salam,
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:24
			he said to
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			He said to her, if the people ask
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			you where did you get this child from?
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			Because Maryam alaihis salatu wa salam wasn't a
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			type to go and sleep around with others
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			And people are surprised now.
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:51
			She doesn't have a husband.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:54
			Where did this child come from?
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			And people are bound to ask this type
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			of question, right? If a person not married
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:59
			and all of a sudden she gets pregnant,
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:00
			she has a child, where does child come
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:03
			from? Say to them, I made a vow
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala that I'm going
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			to do a song.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			What was the song that she was doing?
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			I am not going to speak to anybody
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:15
			today.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			Are you with me my brothers and my
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			sisters? So the song that she done was
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			what? To withhold from
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:22
			Speaking.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			So the linguistic meaning
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			is also found in the book of Allah
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			azza wa jal. Then we move on to
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			the technical meeting.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:33
			Not meeting, meaning,
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			Okay? What does it mean when we hear
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:40
			about the song in the month of Ramadan?
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			In the sharia? What is it exactly speaking
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			about when it's referring to withholding?
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:48
			Okay. They say it's
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			It is to stay away from something specifically.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			Okay. So the first part states what?
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:09
			To stay away from something specifically. What is
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:10
			it that a person needs to stay away
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			from? There's 2 types.
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:16
			The first type is, the food, the drink,
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			and and also the sexual *, something that
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			we all know about. Right? And this is
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			mentioned in Hadith Al Khudsi when Allah azza
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			wa jalai said, and when I say Hadith
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:24
			Al Khudsi, it is the Messenger
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			saying something,
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:28
			but it is
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:29
			a message from Allah Azzawajal.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			What did Allah Azzawajal say?
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:38
			He leaves up food
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:41
			and drink and also a sexual *
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:42
			for my sake.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			Okay? So these three things
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			are the things that are going to invalidate
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			your fast, And inshaAllah ta'ala, I'm going to
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:53
			be touching on each one when we take
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			the other hadith that is to come inshaAllah
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:57
			ta'ala. But generally speaking,
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			these are the main invalidators
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			of the
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			fast.
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			So you have that which is going to
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			invalidate your fast. And you have also another
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			type
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:11
			that a person needs to withhold from
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:12
			and that is what,
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16
			That which is going to reduce the reward
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:16
			of your fast.
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			Okay? And this is exactly what the messenger
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			of Allah ae wala salam told us about.
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:33
			Whoever doesn't leave off, Khawl Azur.
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:36
			Khawl Azur, they say all types of I
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:37
			do,
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			full speech.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:40
			And normally when you go through the books
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			of fiqh, whether it's a Shafi'i fiqh or
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:45
			you know Hanbali fiqh and other fiqh, they
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			talk about certain aspects more than others.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			They say things like that a person needs
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			to stay away from that could really really
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			reduce
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:58
			the reward of his fast? Lying.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:04
			It is to say the opposite of the
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:05
			reality.
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			We all know what lying means. Right? And
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			we all know it is a major sin.
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			Allah told you stay away from lying.
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24
			For indeed the khadib, the lying leads to
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:25
			what?
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			Wickedness, transgression.
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			And then that type of fujur, what does
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:31
			it lead to? It leads to hellfire.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			Fire. And any action you find,
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			it has the issue or the threat of
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:38
			the * fire attached to it, it is
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:39
			a major sin.
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:42
			Even though it's so easy,
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:45
			stay upon the tongue, right? It's very hard
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:45
			to lie.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			Pinocchio, right?
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			There's no stars becoming
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:52
			Very easy to do, right?
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:55
			That could really really destroy your Ramadan and
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:56
			it's a major sin.
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			Also then you have the issue of namima.
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			We all know what an means, right?
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			To take speech from here, take it over
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			there, and then bring it back, and then
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			take it here, And what does that do?
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:12
			It causes
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			corruption between
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			the brothers and the sisters.
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:19
			Again, it's a major sin.
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			Because that individual the messalallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			told us about,
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			2 people, the mitzvahala alaihi wa sallam, walked
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:33
			past, went away in the grave.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:35
			One of them, he never used to clean
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			himself properly when coming out of the toilet,
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			and he was being punished in the grave.
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			Another person was who?
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			Somebody who used to do naniema.
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			He used to take speech from here then
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:48
			go there, and he used to corrupt the
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			brotherhood
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:52
			that was there. While they and then the
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			other third thing that he mentioned is al
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:54
			Ghiba,
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:56
			tabak bite.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			Do you guys know what Ghiba is?
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			They said
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:05
			Allah is Messenger and the best. He said,
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			To mention about your brother that which he
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			disliked in his absence.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:14
			Even my brothers and my sisters?
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			Some of the and I mentioned this yesterday
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			in the conference that we had, people of
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19
			the salif, and when I say salif I
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			mean the 3 golden generation.
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			Some held the view that aghiba
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			can invalidate your fast.
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:29
			They used to say
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:37
			Let us all go sit in,
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:39
			Binaghi,
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			Let us sit in the Masjid
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:45
			and safeguard our tongues from what? Backbiting.
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:51
			Because you know we understand from this how
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			serious this issue is, it's not a light
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			matter.
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			Fact that some actually held the view,
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			one should not be taking it lightly. Even
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:02
			if the outward stronger opinion is that it
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:03
			doesn't invalidate your fast.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:06
			Imam Muhammad he
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:07
			was asked,
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:19
			He was asked, does Dhaghiba backbiting invalidate the
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:22
			person's fast? He said that if that was
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:24
			the case, then none of us would be,
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:26
			or none of us would have a fasting
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			that is accepted, and that's obviously out of
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:31
			him, humbleness that he's saying this, meaning that
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:33
			even he, you know, wouldn't necessarily have a
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			fast.
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:37
			So point of the matter is guys, we
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:38
			have things that invalidate
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:40
			one's fast.
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			And then we have things that what? Reduce
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44
			the reward.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			To such an extent where a person,
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:49
			he will have no reward
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			from the fasting that he does. The 17
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			hours here in the UK is a very
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:54
			long time.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56
			And it's Khidaliq
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:57
			who are struggling.
		
00:12:59 --> 00:12:59
			What do you say?
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			Perhaps a person, he fasts
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			and he gets nothing out of the fasting
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:07
			except what?
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:09
			Thirst and hunger.
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:11
			Imagine you come on Yomartiyama,
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:14
			and the fasting or the Ramadan of 2019,
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:17
			you had absolutely zulf. You know what zulf
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:18
			means? 0.
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:20
			That's what zulf means, right?
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:22
			You had absolutely nothing.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			Why? Because you weren't able to control your
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			tongue,
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:28
			and that's the real type of fasting.
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:39
			When you fast,
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			then make sure your eyes fast as all,
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			and your ears fast as well, and your
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:46
			tongue fast as well. From what? From lying
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47
			and also sinning.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:50
			Your eyes need to fast as well my
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			brothers and my sisters. This is why Instagram
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:53
			is a problem,
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
			generally speaking. And even more a problem in
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:56
			the month of Ramadan.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:00
			And likewise now, what they've done to Facebook
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:00
			recently,
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			when a brother came to Madinah, he raised
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			his concern and he mentioned this to me.
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:06
			Because when you just start scrolling down, I
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:08
			don't think that was the case before. Allahu
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:09
			Alem.
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:12
			Because I don't watch videos on Facebook, I
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:13
			just have a page.
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			Scroll down, you scroll down, you scroll down
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:18
			and you find what?
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:20
			All types of filth.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:22
			And all of that is going to affect
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:23
			your fast.
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:25
			Do you think
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:29
			the person who controls all of these niyaan,
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:30
			and I say that it's niyaan,
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:34
			blessings Allah gave him. The eyes, the hearing,
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			and the tongue that he has, and the
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:37
			person who doesn't.
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:41
			Also the side point I'm gonna mention haditha
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:41
			is mawdur,
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:43
			that goes around WhatsApp.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:45
			Every year, every year I see it going
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			around,
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			and obviously this type of hadith goes against
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:56
			what the fasting is calling to, right?
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			The person who's fasting,
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:02
			him staying quiet
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			is as if he is saying, Subhanallah, Subhanallah.
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:06
			Allah,
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:16
			And him sleeping is a ibadah.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			So a person, he might go out, you
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:20
			know, he might spend the whole day in
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:21
			the month of Ramadan,
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:24
			sleeping and then based upon his hadith, he
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			thinks he's actually getting so much reward.
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			Hadith is actually madur, guys.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:31
			So next time you see this hadith, notify
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			that
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:34
			individual.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:39
			So here this issue of fasting a day
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:40
			or 2,
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:42
			before the month of Ramadan,
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			And this is insha Allahu Ta'ala something that
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:47
			I want to touch on.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:52
			Okay. So the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:53
			saying that you can't
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:56
			fast before the month of Ramadan
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:57
			except
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:04
			This individual had a habitual fasting that he
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			used to observe. For example now, somebody used
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:09
			to fast every Mondays
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:11
			and Thursdays.
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			And then that day
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:14
			falls onto
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			a day or 2 before the month of
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:19
			Ramadan. He's allowed to fast?
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			He's allowed to fast.
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:22
			Make sure you write this down, I'm going
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:25
			to categorize this issue into 2. The habitual
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			fast that a person observes can be put
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			into 2 categories
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:30
			When it is coinciding
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:35
			with the days that the messenger salallahu alaihi
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			wa sallam has prohibited. I'll repeat that again.
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			The habitual fasting that a person observes,
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:43
			if that now coincides
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:47
			with the days that the Messenger sallallahu alaihi
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			wa sallam has prohibited,
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:50
			can be
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:51
			split into 2 categories.
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:54
			Wadih,
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			You have the days like
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:58
			Eidul Atha
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:02
			and Eidul Fitr that the messenger salalahu alaihi
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			was prohibited, right? And also the days of
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:04
			tashrik
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			which is the 3 days
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:07
			after
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:09
			Eidul Abha.
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:14
			If a person was fasting Mondays Thursdays
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:16
			and it falls
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			on the day of Eid
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:20
			or the days of tashayikh, is allowed to
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:21
			fast?
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			The answer is no.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:27
			It is impermissible,
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:28
			unrestrictedly.
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			Then you have other days that the messenger
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:35
			salallahu alaihi wa sallam prohibited,
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:36
			like
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			the fasting
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:40
			of the day of Jum'ah.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			The messenger salallahu alaihi was telling me he
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:44
			said in hadith,
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:00
			Prophet
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:00
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:01
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:02
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:02
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:02
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:02
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:03
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:03
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:03
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:04
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:06
			Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:06
			Muhammad Prophet
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:09
			I mean Thursday night, the Arabic language.
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:11
			Thursday night,
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			they say they call the layla to Jumal.
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			So Thursday night,
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:19
			if one individual now wanted to
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:22
			single out the night in prayer when he
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:25
			normally doesn't pray before that,
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			this is why the messenger
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			Okay? You're not allowed to single it out,
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			whether it is for prayer or whether it
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:40
			is for
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:41
			fasting.
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:44
			So this is also
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:46
			a day in which the messenger salah is
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:49
			prohibited. There's another narration as well with regards
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:50
			to singling out
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:53
			Saturday for fasting.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:55
			But there's a lot of Kalam on the
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:56
			hadith, I'm not going to InshaAllahu ta'ala, this
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:58
			moment in time go into it. So you
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:01
			have the first type in which a person,
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			he is not allowed to
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:05
			fast whatever the case.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:07
			And then you have these kind of days
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			like the day of
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:13
			aljumah. If now an individual is observing a
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:14
			habitual fast,
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			like he does this
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:18
			What is
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			This is the best type of fasting,
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			One day off, one day on.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:27
			If now this fasting that he observes
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:30
			falls on the Friday, he's allowed to fast?
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:32
			He's allowed to fast because this is a
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:33
			habitual type of fasting.
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:35
			What are they?
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:37
			Oh, Insha'Allah ta'ala what I mention is clear.
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:39
			Now we move on to the issue now
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			because the messian Allah alaihi wa sallam spoke
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:41
			about
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			fasting a day or 2. So when a
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:46
			person fast a day or 2, that falls
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			in what? The month of Shaaban. Right? So
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:49
			there's some
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:52
			that is connected to it. Because the masala
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54
			alaihi wa sallam spoke about fasting a day
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			or 2 which falls in the month of
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:57
			Shaaban, we have to speak about this issue.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:02
			Okay. So they say, fasting in the month
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:02
			of Shaaban
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			is of 3 different levels. Which month is
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:06
			Shaaban?
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:08
			The month after Ramadan or the month before
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:09
			Ramadan?
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:11
			The month before Ramadan.
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:15
			Okay? So this can now be put into
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:15
			3 levels.
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:19
			Sometimes fasting in the month of Shaaban can
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:19
			be wajib
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:22
			and it can be even wajib
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			to fast a day or 2 before the
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:27
			month of Ramadan. How am I contradicting myself
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:27
			now?
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:30
			We've just been going on about the issue
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:30
			of
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:33
			it being prohibited, it being haram to fast
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			a day or 2.
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:37
			That's if an individual now wants to do
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:38
			voluntary fasts.
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:41
			But sometimes it can be wajib.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:44
			Who can quickly tell me how it can
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:44
			be wajib?
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:49
			Jameel. There was an individual in the Ramadan
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:49
			before,
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:52
			he had 2 days remaining
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:55
			and then he completely forgot.
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			And then someone reminded him, remember, we broke
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:01
			our fast because we were traveling. Oh, yes.
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:04
			And there's only 2 days left.
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:07
			So only 2 days left. What do we
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:08
			say to the individual?
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			You have to fast.
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:13
			Why?
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:16
			Because this is a type of fasting that
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:16
			is what?
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			Waijab upon you. And if you delay it
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:21
			and the Ramadan kicks in
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24
			then you have seriously sinned.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:26
			Severely.
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29
			And you would also need to pay fidya
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:31
			when making up the days
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:35
			that you missed in the previous Ramadan, if
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:36
			the next Ramadan kicks in.
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:40
			And Aisha
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:43
			she used to delay the fasting that she
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:45
			still needed to make up all the way
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:46
			till when?
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:47
			The month of Sha'aban.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:52
			So sometimes it can be wajib.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:57
			And sometimes my brothers and my sisters, it
		
00:21:57 --> 00:21:57
			can be what?
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:00
			It can be mustahab,
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:03
			it can be highly recommended to fast in
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:04
			the month of
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:05
			Shaaban.
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:09
			This is exactly what Aisha radhiallahu ta'ala Anand
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:10
			she mentioned about
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:12
			the Masina Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:30
			Aisha radiAllahu ta'ala Anha, she said, I never
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32
			saw the missus sala alayhi was ever complete
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:32
			a month
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:34
			other than the month of Ramadan, and I
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:37
			never saw him fasting a month
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:39
			more than any other mom except the month
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:40
			of Shaaban.
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:42
			He used to fast excessively
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			in the month of Shaaban.
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:47
			Are you with me? So if a person
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:48
			now decided
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:50
			to fast the month of sha'ba,
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:53
			not in the 1st day, 2nd day, 3rd
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:53
			day,
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:56
			okay? And then he reached all the way
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:59
			to the 28th day. Is he allowed to
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:00
			fast on 29th and also 30th?
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:02
			Answer is no.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:04
			He can fast the whole of the month
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:05
			of Shaban except these 2 days.
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			That which is prohibited for a person to
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:13
			fast a voluntary fast a day or 2
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:14
			before the month of Ramadan.
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			And then you have a third scenario,
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:27
			they say it becomes a makru
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:30
			for a person to fast.
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:33
			When does it become disliked, Maqru means to,
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35
			or this act now being disliked.
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:36
			It can become disliked.
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:39
			They said based on the Hadith of the
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:39
			Messenger
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:41
			sallallahu
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:45
			alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:46
			When the midpoint
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:48
			of Shaaban
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:50
			or when the midpoint it reaches the month
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:51
			of Shaaban,
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:54
			then you should not fast.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:56
			That's obviously if an individual
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:59
			did not start fasting at the beginning of
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:00
			the month of Sha'agan,
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:03
			if the midpoint kicks in and one wanted
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:04
			now to start fasting,
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:06
			we will say you are not allowed to
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:07
			fast.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09
			Some scholars they hold it to be impermissible
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:11
			and some scholars they say it's what? It
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:12
			is makru.
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:15
			And they say that the sarif is what?
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:17
			The fact that the messenger salallahu alayhi wa
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:18
			sallam used to fast
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:21
			throughout the month of Sha'aban.
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			So InshaAllah Ta'ala I hope this is clear,
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:24
			I've got a football here,
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:26
			it's a champions league football,
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:28
			that's a price today,
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:31
			not Yeah, price, not price. Price today insha
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:34
			Allahu Ta'ala. So make sure you pay attention
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:35
			to some of these taksimat. I'm going to
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			ask question at the end,
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:41
			and whoever insha Allahu ta'ala answers the best
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			question I'm gonna give him the football. It
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:43
			got given to me yesterday.
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			Someone said, give this as a gift.
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:57
			Because now us saying it is instead of
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:58
			us saying that it is haram,
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:02
			instead of doing
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:22
			in the next hadith guys, he said,
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:27
			When you see see what? The crescent,
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:29
			then observe your fast.
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:34
			And also when you see it at the
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:35
			end of the month of Ramadan,
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:38
			then break your fast. When? Eid kicks in,
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:39
			right?
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:43
			Even now it becomes cloudy,
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			or your vision is blurred when you're trying
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:47
			to sight the Moon,
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:52
			Do something called a Taqdir.
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:54
			And I'm going to InshaAllah Ta'ala speak about
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:57
			this part of the Hadith because this part
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:59
			of the Hadith caused a lot of Khilaf
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:00
			among the scholars.
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:02
			So hey my brothers and my sisters, we
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:03
			have to understand
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:05
			that
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:14
			The month of Ramadan we know that it
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:15
			has kicked in, or we know that it
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:18
			has now become wajib upon us through 3
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:18
			ways.
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:22
			The first way is that if it is
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:22
			sighted,
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:25
			the Muslims they go out.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:31
			As it came in Harib Nuhim radiAllahu ta'ala
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:31
			Anhu said,
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:36
			The Muslims, they went out in order to
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:36
			sight the moon.
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:44
			So,
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:47
			he said that I told the Messenger
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:49
			that I saw it.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:55
			He fasted that day and he also commanded
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:57
			the others to fast.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:26:59
			So if it is now seen with the
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:00
			naked eye
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:04
			then then we say that the month of
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:05
			Ramadan has
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:05
			started.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:08
			How many witnesses do you need?
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:10
			1 is enough.
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:12
			If that individual is trustworthy,
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:14
			if one person sees it
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:17
			and he's upright in his religion also, what
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:18
			do we say?
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:21
			That the month of Ramadan has kicked in.
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:24
			Because here in this hadith, Nur Muhammad radiAllahu
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:25
			ta'ala was the only one that saw it.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:27
			He went to the Messenger sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:29
			sallam and the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam fasted.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:32
			Kharjul Khamsa. You also have another hadith. Alimna
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34
			Abbasir radiAllahu Alaihi
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:37
			Wasallam
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:43
			He told him the Bedouin,
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			who was a companion and saw the
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:47
			crescent. He asked him,
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:00
			He asked him, do you bear witness that
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:01
			nobody has the right to be worshiped and
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:03
			insured except Allah? He said, yes.
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:06
			He was checking his integrity.
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:09
			This individual is somebody who believes in Allah
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:14
			And he also asked him that Muhammad salallahu
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:15
			alaihi wa sallam is the final messenger.
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:19
			Then the Musa alaihi wa sallam told Bilal
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:21
			to go and make the announcement,
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			so that the people can fast tomorrow.
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:26
			And Allah says,
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:31
			Whoever from amongst you sights or sees or
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:33
			witness in the month, then let him fast.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:34
			Guys.
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:35
			So now,
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:37
			the Muslims, they go out in order to
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:38
			sight the moon.
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:40
			And that's exactly what we're waiting for when
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:41
			we're,
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:42
			you know,
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:45
			waiting anxiously whether it's going to be the
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:47
			month of Ramadan or not, right at the
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:48
			end of Shaaban, right?
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:51
			People go out to the desert,
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:54
			and they try to sight the Moon, in
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:56
			Saudi Arabia and other places as well.
		
00:28:58 --> 00:28:59
			The second way that we know my brothers
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:01
			and my sisters that the month of Ramadan
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:02
			has started
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:04
			is that
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:06
			if 30 days have completed
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:09
			So the first is what?
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:13
			Sight, right? If it is seen. The second
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:14
			one is, it's
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:17
			If
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:19
			the month of Shaaban,
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:20
			okay,
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:23
			has been completed with 30 days.
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:26
			This is exactly what the messenger said,
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:30
			and he made a sign with his hand,
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:31
			meaning 30 days.
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:33
			And even the poet would
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:45
			So these two cases, my brothers and my
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:47
			sisters, have been agreed upon.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:50
			That the month of Ramadan, if it becomes
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:52
			now completed with 30 days,
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			then the month of Ramadan has kicked in
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:55
			Sorry, in the month of Shaban. And the
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:57
			other one is what? If it is sighted.
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:58
			So that's 2 ways.
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:01
			Then the third way has been different on.
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:05
			The third way, in order to affirm that
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:07
			the month of Ramadan has kicked in, has
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:08
			been different.
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:11
			And the reason why they differed is with
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:12
			regards to the end of the hadith when
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:14
			the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he said,
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:20
			When now your vision is blurred because of
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:21
			maybe
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:25
			there being clouds that are covering the moon,
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:26
			the crescent,
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			or maybe because there is dust
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:32
			that blocks your vision of the crescent.
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:35
			Scholars are different. What do we do now?
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:35
			You
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:37
			have the
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:47
			They say you have to fast.
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:50
			This is the day of shirk. You know
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:53
			when everybody is doubting, and we're waiting anxiously.
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:55
			Right? Is Is it going to be Ramadan
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:56
			tomorrow or no?
		
00:30:57 --> 00:30:59
			This month or the month before Afon, this
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:01
			year, when we was waiting, what happened?
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:05
			He was waiting anxiously. What happened?
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:09
			Was it Ramadan the next day or was
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:10
			it Su Shaaban?
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:12
			Su Shaaban. It was Su Shaaban.
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:15
			Everybody was waiting, is it going to be
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:17
			Ramadan, is it not? Then the news came
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			that tomorrow is still
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:20
			month of Sha'aban. We're not going to be
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:21
			fasting tomorrow.
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:24
			That's the day that I'm speaking about guys.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:28
			That day now, the Muslims come out and
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:31
			then the sighting of the moon is blurred
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:33
			because of dust or cloud,
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:35
			you have the hanabil who say that you
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			have to fast that next day.
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:39
			But that's not a stronger opinion.
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:42
			You find that the Jumhul they say no,
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:45
			if your vision is now blurred, the majority
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:47
			of scholars like the Shafi'i and also Malik,
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:50
			Imam Rahimullah Ta'ala, also Imam Abu Hanifa, they
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:51
			say what?
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:54
			That you have to complete the month of
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:55
			Shaaban to 30 days.
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:58
			What the heck guys?
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:02
			Why? Because there's another hadith that explains this
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:02
			hadith
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:05
			in where its wording is a bit what?
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:05
			Ambiguous,
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:07
			it is vague,
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:09
			carries a lot of meaning.
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:11
			Because some scholars say faqdurullah means
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:12
			a
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:17
			while the a little bit technical, I don't
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:19
			wanna confuse you guys. There's another narration that
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:20
			says,
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:27
			If you come out, it becomes blurred,
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:30
			you know, your vision, there's something blocking it,
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32
			whether it's dust or clouds, you can't see
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:35
			the crescent, Messenger Salaam is saying to you,
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37
			make sure you complete
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:38
			30 days of Sha'aban.
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:48
			And there's another narration that they use as
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:49
			well. He
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:51
			said,
		
00:32:58 --> 00:32:59
			Whoever fast
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:02
			on the day in which
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:04
			the people are doubting whether the month of
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:06
			Ramadan has kicked in or not, and this
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:07
			person has disobeyed,
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:17
			My name is Mohammed, by the way.
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:19
			Was what?
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:20
			Abu Qasem,
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:22
			Wali.
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:25
			Guys, you have to understand,
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:27
			and I'm gonna be doing this every now
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:29
			and again, you know, when things I feel
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:31
			like it's getting a bit technical and it's
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:32
			getting a bit overwhelming.
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:36
			If you want to maintain your iman,
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:39
			then you really have to seek knowledge.
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:41
			And while Allah is sometimes very difficult upon
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:43
			the nafs. A lot of these Mahabiras you
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:45
			know that some of your brothers might go
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:47
			to, what it does is it increases your
		
00:33:49 --> 00:33:51
			Iman. If your Iman is maybe very low,
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:52
			you go to the Mahadirah,
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:55
			it's like taking a paracetamol,
		
00:33:57 --> 00:33:59
			pushes your Iman up.
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:01
			But if you wanna really maintain your Iman,
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:02
			what you need to do is,
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:04
			you need to seek knowledge.
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:07
			Learn how to worship Allah
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:09
			so you can do that Ibadah properly.
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:12
			And will Allah acknowledge my brothers and my
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:14
			sisters, it's not an easy thing.
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:17
			It's not an easy. It's not like mathematics
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:19
			or English or physics and
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:22
			elim is a completely different ballgame. So I
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:24
			remember, subhanAllah, when I was one time sitting
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:25
			in the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, his
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:25
			masjid.
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:29
			Shastulayman al Rahidi saw that something that he
		
00:34:29 --> 00:34:30
			was teaching
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:34
			was overwhelming the students. He said, Alilmuthaqeel.
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:36
			Alilm
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:39
			is what? It's very heavy.
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:45
			And those who are patient are only what?
		
00:34:46 --> 00:34:47
			A few in number.
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:51
			And And those who become scholars are only
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52
			minority
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:53
			within a minority.
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:56
			It's why you don't find
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:58
			so many scholars walking around on the streets
		
00:34:58 --> 00:34:59
			of London, right?
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:03
			Because it's very difficult to most people take
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:03
			this path.
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:06
			Some the moment they taste a bit of
		
00:35:06 --> 00:35:06
			it,
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:09
			it's get relaxed again.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:11
			But you find every other profession.
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:14
			So if you wanna be from the people
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:16
			my brothers and my sisters, you have to
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:17
			exert your efforts.
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:20
			You really have to, you know,
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:25
			He used to say, if I was able
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:27
			to get the Ilm and pour it into
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			your mouth out of danda.
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:32
			But the ilm is only attained
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:35
			by the scraping of the knees and by
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:36
			the scraping of the elbows.
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:38
			Meaning you have to really go out, you're
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:40
			gonna have to struggle if you really want
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:42
			just a little bit of il.
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:46
			That's why Sufianath Thawri and
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:48
			also Imam Zuri,
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:50
			they mentioned that if you want a bit
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:52
			of knowledge, you have to give it your
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:52
			all.
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:55
			You're only gonna get a little bit. Imagine
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			the guy who goes in half heartedly, oh
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:58
			yeah, let me just, you know, try get
		
00:35:58 --> 00:35:59
			something.
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:01
			How much are you gonna get? It's a
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:03
			guy who's giving his fullest, he's only gonna
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:04
			get a little bit.
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:07
			Because the is a lot
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:09
			right?
