And then he goes on to say my
beloved brothers and sisters, Waqaalu rahimu Allah
Waqaana yukhallilu lihyahahu ahiyanan
We are now going to speak about
the beard.
He says here,
the Messenger
used to do takleel
of the beard. Taghleel, my brothers and my
sisters, is to take fingers.
Okay? And then
to place it inside of the beard like
that.
Okay? Like that.
And there's a number of ways that an
individual can,
implement the sunnah of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam with regards to
washing the beard.
And he has 3 different scenarios. The first
one is that he gets some water, and
then he does this.
I know my beard is a bit thick,
but some people have very, very short or
very small beards. So you take water, and
then you place it like that. I remember
our Sheikh, Sheikh Abdul Samu Shoa in the
Haram,
and I never forgot it, SubhanAllah, because of
him demonstrating it. Sheikh has a little beard.
You can try to Google him or YouTube
him. He has a little bed. He did
this and he was just put it inside
like that. And this is exactly what the
Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
kanay that Tawaba is Anasim Malekah radiAllahu ta'ala
* mention whenever he did wudu,
Akhadakafanimma,
he would take a kaff,
a handful of water like that,
Fa'atkala ootahta hanaqihi,
and then he would place it
under his bed.
Okay. So that's the first scenario.
The second scenario is what I showed earlier.
You take water and then you start placing
it. You start placing it like that into
your beard.
Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
Remember how Sheikh Salah al Sindhi demonstrated this
in Haram as well. He took his fingers
and he started putting it inside of his
beard like that,
and it just really stuck with me because
it's something that it gets demonstrated, right?
And then the 3rd scenario, my beloved
brothers and sisters is,
to take water and then start doing this.
So you then
start like
on the side of your beard.
Payib.
$1,000,000 question now that,
some of you guys may be itching to
ask.
Do I have to wash the bed when
doing the wudu? Is it a mas? Is
it an obligation? Is it sunnah? Is it
not?
It depends what kind of beard you have.
It really does.
Okay?
Because we know the beard is part of
the face. Right? And we mentioned before that
washing the face,
washing the face, is a pillar from the
pillars of the wudu. And we know here
that the beard is on the face as
well.
The principle here is,
if you have a thin beard,
then you have to wash the outside
and the inside as well. I'll repeat that
again.
If you have a thin beard,
then you have to wash
the inside and the outside as well.
But if you have a thick beard,
you have to wash
the outside
only,
and not the inside.
Let me repeat it all again.
Principle is, if you have a thin beard,
you have to wash the inside and likewise
the outside.
If you have a thick beard,
then you only have to wash the outside.
How do I know if I have a
thin beard or a thick beard?
They say my beard is a perfect example
for this because it has both.
Okay. So as you can see my brothers
and my sisters, you can see the skin
behind my beard.
They say if you can see the skin
behind your beard, then that is considered to
be a thin beard. So this part of
my beard here, you would have to make
sure that you do the inside and the
outside as well.
As for this
part, this is not considered to be a
thin bed because you can't see the skin
behind
the bed.
Right? So that would be considered to be
a thick bed.
You will only have to wash the outside
of it.
You will only have to wash the lahir
the outside of it.
We
also mentioned that the face is from here,
all the way up to here, right to
the chin.
What about,
The beard that is growing under
my chin.
Okay, like this part for example.
The majority of scholars, they hold the view
that you have to wash the outside only.
You don't have to,
wash the inside.
But like I said earlier, the sunnah of
the messian sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, it's a
sunnah practice, and we know that the difference
between a sunnah and that which is
obligatory is sunnah.
If you do it, you get a reward
for it. And if you don't, you're not
gonna get a sin, and that act of
worship is still correct. However, if I say
something is mandatory,
like washing the beer that's on my face
here, k, whether it's thin or thick.
We mentioned the principle of how to go
about it.
That case is an obligation,
and if you leave of an obligation,
you're,
you're going to get a sin for it.
And if pillar is depending on it,
then your pillar could either be correct or
incorrect, and based on that, your can
be rendered invalid.
