00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Touch on a topic that is
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			very, very touchy in certain places
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			in England,
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			especially in places like Leicester where you find
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			that
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			every Ramadan
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			there is a kind of commotion amongst the
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			communities.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:42
			Is it
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			allowed for the woman to go and pray
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			the Jama'ah?
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			Is it allowed for her to go to
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			the Masjid
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			and attend a congregational prayer,
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			for Taraweeh?
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			Or should we even provide that facility?
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			Is this something that the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			wa sallam did or did not do?
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			Should we be providing
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			a facility for the women?
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			And just generally the woman just going out
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			to the masjid.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			And we want to, inshallah, bring a balanced
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			position on this issue so that everybody is
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:20
			upon clarity
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			from the matters
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam talked about
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			and obviously anytime there is a dispute Allah
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			Subhanahu Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala told
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:33
			us,
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			if you ever dispute in any man then
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			take it back to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:43
			and His Messenger SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam if you
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			are people that believe in Allah Azzawajal in
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			the last day
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			that is good, Waasannu Taawela.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			Sheikh Muqbil Bin Hadi
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			which is a compilation of the hadith Mimalasaf
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			Sahihain.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06
			Mimalay Safih Sahihain, he compiled
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			a book where he brought a hadith
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			that is not in al Sahihainin Bukhari in
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:14
			Muslim,
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			but they are authentic narrations.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			And the reason why I'm specifically mentioning this
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			book is because
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			the Sheikh, the Imam, Muqt Bilhardil Waadhiyah brought
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			a chapter in,
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			where he brought the eye of Allah Subhanahu
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:33
			Wa Ta'ala, Woman Azzalamu Mi'min Mena Amsajidullah,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			and who is more unjust than the one
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			that prevents
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			people from going to the House of Allah
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala?
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			Then he brought the Hadith
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			to maybe
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			make it more specific
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			and explain it further.
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:52
			When the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam he said,
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			Laatam Nahuw
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			Ima Allahima Sajd Allah,
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:57
			do not
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			prevent the female slaves
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala from going to
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			the Masjid.
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			It is incorrect. It is haram for the
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:09
			husband
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			to stop his wife from going to the
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			Masjid if she wills, but
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:17
			waliakhrujna
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:18
			wahunnatafilat,
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			they should leave
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			while they are unbeautified.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			And he came in a narration
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			by Ibn Khuzaima Rahimahu Ta'ala
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:37
			the Prophet The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			their houses are better for them,
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			so you have the father and the Mafudul,
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			firstly we have to understand is it permissible
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			for her to go? The answer is yes,
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			without the shadow of a doubt,
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			because the Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam commanded the
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			husband not to
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			prevent his wife from going, but then you
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			have the issue
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			which one is better and which one is
		
00:03:59 --> 00:03:59
			not better,
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:01
			and it's not permissible for
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			someone to enforce
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:07
			the father over the mafdul upon an individual,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			that which is more preferred over that which
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:12
			isn't preferred,
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:15
			as long as the matter is not Haram
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			or there isn't a clear or there's a
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			clear prohibition on there,
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			and also Abdulai Namas Uddur radiAllahu anhu
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			he narrated Hadith upon the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:29
			Wasallam, he said
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			The prayer of a woman in her
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			home
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			And here the intended purpose by bait is
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			her room, like her bedroom.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			It is more better
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			it is more better
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			than her prayer that she does in a
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			and the intended purpose by
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:02
			is, you know when you come into the
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			house
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			and the door
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			brings you into maybe the living room, you
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			find that some doors are connected straight into
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:12
			the living room and you walk straight in.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16
			So her doing actually in her bedroom is
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			better than her doing it
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			into the main room that is attached to
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			the door.
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			Then the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Salam said,
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			and her prayer in her
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:36
			and the Magdha is a
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			room that you normally put your valuables in
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:40
			there,
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			it's better than the Salat that she does
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:45
			in her room and the hadith was narrated
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			by Imam Abu Dawood
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			and also
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:50
			Imam Atir Mirrahima Mutta'ala was authenticated by Sheikh
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			Al Bani Rahim Muhammad Allahu Ta'ala Ajma'in.
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:56
			So as you can see, the more
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:58
			concealed
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			a woman is even within a house it
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			is more better for her.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:08
			So you have the issue now, is it
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			permissible for her to go out to the
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			Masjid? Am I allowed to stop her? Am
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:12
			I allowed to stop my wife from going
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			out? The answer is no, but she needs
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			to realize oh this is more better for
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			her and we should strive
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:20
			to try and obtain that which is more
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:21
			of a reward and that which is more
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			better in the eyes of Allah Subhana Wa
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:23
			Ta'la
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			and at the same time when the woman
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			goes out in which way does she go
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			out?
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:31
			The prophet
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			specifically mentioned to us in the hadith,
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			they should leave while they are unbeautified.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			Under this will go wearing
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			clothes that attract attention.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			Wearing maybe
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			bangles, which will attract the attention of men.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			Wearing makeup
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			which goes under beautifying yourself,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			wearing perfume, the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:03
			Alaihi
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:04
			Wasallam
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:05
			said
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:06
			Any
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:07
			woman
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:08
			now
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:09
			that
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:10
			wears
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			perfume
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			and she goes past a group of men
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			and they smell her, she's a fornicator.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:21
			The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said this and
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			it was narrated by Imam Abu Dawood Rahimhanahu
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			So when a woman goes out, she goes
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			out in a according manner
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			based upon the Sharia and beautified not wearing
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:36
			makeup, not wearing perfume, not beautifying herself, well
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:37
			the only time she should beautify herself is
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			in front of her husband
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			and if she is sitting around women,
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			it's perfectly permissible for her to wear whatever
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:47
			she want in front especially in front of
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:48
			the husband. Rabi is
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51
			recommended that she beautifies herself as much as
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:51
			possible
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			and it should be inside the house, but
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			this is Safitna today that we have
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			which is very very problematic.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			And this was from the affairs of the
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			Jahiliya, the women of the Jahiliya, how they
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:05
			used to go out displaying
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:06
			themselves
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			and not covering themselves properly.
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:15
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala He told us in
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:15
			the
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			Quran and abide yourselves in your home and
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			do not display yourselves,
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			expose yourselves just like you used to expose
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			yourself in the state of Jahiliya.
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:33
			So we have come to know now a
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:35
			woman now exposing herself and displaying herself
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			is from the matter of the Jahiliya and
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi was telling me told
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			us, the most hated people
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:50
			are 3 people, and from those that were
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			mentioned, wamuptarifilIslam
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			is sunnatal Jahiliyyah and someone that tries to
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:56
			come into Al Islam and seek the way
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			of the people of Jahiliyyah.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:04
			Brothers and sisters, Wallahi,
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:07
			come back to religion.
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:09
			We're not here to bash the people, all
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			I'm trying to make you away is the
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			Akaam of Sharaiyah
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is messenger salallahu
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:16
			alaihi wa sallam mentioned keep us balanced as
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			possible without favoring or following our desires
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21
			and it's important that we know this.
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:23
			We all make mistakes,
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			whatever sin we have done
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			the door of repentance is always open. Allah
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:30
			says in
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			those servants who have transgressed against themselves
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			do not lose hope in the mercy of
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:38
			Allah Subhanahu wa'ta'ala
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:42
			Allah forgives all sins whatever sin it might
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:44
			be, even if you fornicated with a 1,000
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:45
			men
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			but the guy has slept with so many
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			girls,
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			whatever he's
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			done, whether it is even
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			frustrating to
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:56
			a grave, whatever it might have meant,
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			the door of Repentance is always open. That's
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			how Rahim Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, we're just
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			here to remind ourselves
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:04
			firstly and then remind our brothers and sisters
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:05
			secondly,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			Reminds for any that Reminds me that Reminds
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:08
			me that Reminds me that Reminds me that
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:09
			Reminds me that Reminds me that Reminds me
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			that Reminds me that Reminds me that Reminds
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:10
			me that Reminds me that Reminds me that
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			Reminds me that Reminds me that Reminds me
