In their word what they do a particular.
Muhammad might fast,
Jamar might fast,
Ahmed might fast, but they're all different.
And some of the things that some of
them, what they get because of some of
the things they do and some of the
things that they stay away from.
So it's very convenient in
This book,
is very very famous. Why?
Because every hadith in there is from Bukhari
and Muslim.
And by the way, it's only gonna be
maybe, like, a half an hour lesson. Won't
be taking much of your time.
None. Every hadith in here is Bukhali and
Muslim. This is why this book has become
so important to the people
because everything in here is authentic.
A person should not precede
Ramadan by fasting
a day or 2. For example, not before
Ramadan,
someone decides the past 2 days or maybe
the one day.
Except a person that used to do on
a regular basis.
Here you find in the hadith the prophet
has prohibited a person to fast before the
month of Ramadan by a day or 2.
And before we go into the explanation of
the Hadith,
we all know that Allah
has legislated a song.
While the ishnaq, the agreement of the Muslim,
this song has been legislated to Allah.
And, likewise, in the Quran, it's mentioned that
Allah has legislated the soul upon you. And,
likewise, in the sunnah, when the prophet, he
mentioned that the deen
is based upon 5 things. It has 5
pillars.
And one of them is the song.
And
back to the
where the
shelf he mentioned his first Hadith.
And some of that term related to it,
the Psalm is only 1 compulsory
upon a certain type of people, not everyone.
And some are sure that they mentioned first
that a person has to be Muslim.
If he is Muslim and he's bad
luck, this person has hit the age of
puberty,
and this person is also sane, Meaning, he's
not crazy or anything like this.
And the fourth thing is fire.
A person is pure.
That
And another thing, a person is able.
That takes out a person that is not
able. For example, now a person might not
be able because of severe sickness.
Yani
is not able to
make the fast and etcetera.
And another person that is residing in the
country,
and he's not traveling. I will speak about
the issue even more later on when we
reach this Hadith. I travel up.
There's some Islam, some rulings related to him
whether he's allowed to fast or not to
fast. So the person is Muslim.
He's residing at the same time as Abel.
He's pure.
He's a.
Not a Muslim, a crazy person,
none, and a person that has hit the
age of puberty and Muslim. He is wise
upon him all
to perform the fast.
It's not permissive of him to stop fasting
or to leave off.
What does this mean when the prophet
said,
fast 2 days or one day before Ramadan
except the person they used to do on
a regular basis.
For example, now we have a hadith where
the prophet
And when you see the present,
meaning before Ramadan or the time of Ramadan,
the first day, then you submit to make
the fast.
And when you see the present meaning at
the end of Ramadan, you break your fast.
And if you're not able to see it,
maybe just a cloud
or it's difficult for a person to see,
maybe it's raining and etcetera,
then a person needs to estimate
30 days of Ramadan.
Normally, we get a lot of differences along
Khilafat on the 29th of Sharban. Is it
gonna be Ramadan tomorrow? Is it not?
But as soon as the 30 Sharban is
finished,
then that 30 day starts if you don't
see the hirag. If you don't see the
present at that time.
And then some addam, some benefits related to
this hadith.
The origin is that Ibaballes and sees the
presence is upon the first.
And we're gonna go, inshallah, speak about more
regarding some of the things that happens in
this era
or this time that we're in.
We're talking about the origin now. For example,
now, Mohammed, he goes and sees the Hilal.
He sees the prison
on the 29th or 30th
of Shaban.
What does he do? Does he fast?
Does he not fast? And etcetera. We wanna
talk more about that. And what the ulama'bihab
said regarding this, Allah alayhi salam
that if 2 people see the moon
or the crescent,
it's upon the people to make the fast.
2 people. He needs 2 people for them
to see the crescent moon in order for
the people to start fasting.
Something called ijmaq.
Imam al Taymili brings the agreement. So if
2 people are, for example,
and they see the presence at that particular
time, and they tell the imam,
the person that is in charge of the
country,
So the person now by himself, he sees
the hillah. What does he do?
Does he fast by himself or does he
not?
According to the hadith,
Ahmad ibn al Ahmad is saying, even though
there's a difference of opinion regarding the issue,
The prophet
said, whoever sees this, I'm coming to fast.
If a person sees, I'm coming to fast.
And you perform aid when the rest of
the people that have aid.
Even though there's an ifdila without the opinion
people like Sheikh Islam,
And then when they talk about this issue
about unity.
So the Muslim, they stay together,
and they fast together, and they perform 8
together, and they break the fast together.
All because of the unity,
they view this as a proof.
And we show the importance that the Muslim
and they stay together.
That Palestinian by himself, some of the they
say, he fast himself.
Now if he sees and the rest of
the people, they don't fast, he fast by
himself,
but he keeps it within himself.
He doesn't come up, causing cold up. Fusing
chaos, I told the noon, you'd have to
pass. Otherwise, you'll pass the bargain and things
like that. He goes on a stampede, on
a ramp, try and causing the problems within
the people. While he goes to the Himah
and hold it to preserve the unity. While
he fast himself, he keeps it within himself.
People like Shafa Saymin, they don't charge of
that.
If a person wakes up now
and he realizes
that it's sown.
For example, the whole night, he was waiting.
He never found an answer. It happens to
a lot of people that are in the
bad area, like in the village and that.
They don't like with the community. Maybe they
don't have radio. They don't have electricity. They
don't have TV to hear the news.
They realize in the morning, maybe 2 o'clock
in the afternoon. Today is Ramadan. What does
he do?
Does he carry on fasting, or does he?
Or does he stop fasting, or does he
not fast?
Some of the Uneghar, they used as a
as a proof what happened to Yom Hashur
regarding the prophet
and some Sahadis.
Now what do you do?
Do you say, Halas, I mean, today, I've
got a day off this holiday for me?
No. This person encouraged on fasting according to
the Hadith,
and the Hilleman, they use it as proof
regarding
the situation.
So a person at that time, it is
2 o'clock, even it's at 4 o'clock, maybe
a few hours before.
His, breaking a fast, he starts talking on
that day, and everything is okay.
The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
Then he stood up for prayer.
So, Anas said to Zayd, how long was
the period between the suhoor and the prayer?
The Adan and the suhoor.
He said, 50 ayaats.
You have to wake up and perform a
suhoor, and etcetera.
The of suhoor
is something that is mustahab
recommended.
If a person leaves the office, he doesn't
become sinful. But a person should try to
wake up and try and obtain the Barakah
of the suhoor.
The reason why it is mustahab. Some of
you might not understand it. Do you see
an explain it?
Even though there's a compulsory
order from the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
such as.
Those that know Arabic, this is a command.
And it's very well known that a command,
it
indicates
compulsion compulsoriness.
Unless there's another act of the prophet
that takes it down for being compulsory to
mister Haqq.
The people to wake up as suhoor.
But then all the hadith, when the prophet
done, we saw something called we saw. He
carried on,
and he didn't do the sukuk. He carried
on fasting.
Right? This is the thing that brings it
down from to recommended.
So this issue is recommended if a person
doesn't wake up, he is not sinful,
rather he's only missed out on the wajur,
the recommended
So as from the chapter that he has
mentioned in the Sahih.
And, also, this issue about Sahih, a quick
benefit
is something that Allah
has made a has made a has made
a in Islam.
People before you,
not only for us, it was prescribed upon
the people before us. But this suhoor,
Allah has made
it specific for us.
The proclamation in the hadith,
The difference between the our fasting
and the of the people of the book
is that
we have to secure.
Some of the elements, they says, it's from
the things that Allah may eat it from
his ummah.
To wake up on suhoor, to learn a
barak from the suhoor. Sometimes it's fine.
So this is something that Allah has made
specific
for this ummah.
Regarding the 50 ayaats,
now, there's many, many, while many, many opinions
regarding the 50 IHDS, what it actually means.
Now all the 50 IHAD and IHAD, I
mentioned a source in, for example,
Or is it the duration of 50 ayats
like Surat Al Khosla in Atena Al Khosla,
which is from the smallest of the ayats?
Naham, some earlier they said that it's the
middle
or the middle between these 2 ayaat. The
shortest one and likewise, the long the longest
ayaat in the Quran.
Fifty ayaat according to that.
And some of them, they said things like
15 minutes,
20 minutes
according
to the Hadith that we mentioned earlier.
He said, we made supere with the prophet
when we stood up.
No? We stood up for the prayer. We
showed there's only a small period of time.
Like, when does it actually start?
Does it start after
or
does it start the 3rd of the day,
the 9th, or the last sick?
There's many, many opinions regarding this as well,
but the outward opinion
which is more close to Rasawad is that
he starts on the last sick
of the night.
If you cut up the night into 6
parts
and calculate it the last 6th,
this is when the sukur actually starts. According
to the hadith of Anas,
he said we performed suhoor.
We done the suhoor, and then we stood
at shayra with the prayer.
Sukhur
or the,
the night.
And drink until you see the difference of
the night from the morning.
For example, you can see white coming inside
the night
and etcetera.
This is what the prophet, Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala, mentioned in the Quran. This is when
the time when a person should be doing
himself, stopping himself from eating.
And we started yesterday as well when we're
looking inside the sky at 3 o'clock,
the that road, the car,
gospel street. When we look back,
at that time, we could see a difference
between
the time at 1 o'clock and night was
at 3 o'clock.
There was, like, it was coming into the,
yanny,
the dawn. You could see the difference of
the sky coming around that time. And we
looked at the sky as well at the
same time at 1 o'clock, at 12 o'clock
as well. You can see a very big
difference between the two times.
Tell you, a few more messiah, a few
more
If a person now is doubting,
is it fajr is it not fajr, what
does it actually do?
Does it carry on eating, or does it
stop eating until he make sure?
If
until it's not clear, you can carry on
eating.
But when it becomes clear for a person,
that has absolutely
become, and it's time for it. And he
carries on eating after that, and then an
an agreement by the ruler of this person
has broken his. But as long as the
person is in shock, and it's
not
There's an
agreement by the ulama.
People like Ilhamun Der,
Nahan al Masayman, and now we they're transmitted.
They have a person who has food in
his mouth,
And the hadan has gone.
There's an agreement that this person carries on
finishing what's inside his mouth.
We all know the
we can use that as proof. There's no
There's a hadith barid,
a weak narration,
where the Prophet
or something like that,
and he
is eating it.
Then the hadith this weak hadith, it says
that a person can carry on eating it
until he puts it down.
Until he takes from it whatever he needs.
But according to some of the ulama like
Sheikh Moqid, Muhammadullah,
I may have mentioned it in his book,
