And Khabir and Imam Bazar and his Mustad,
prayed to us by Ibn Abbas and Abu
Huraira. And each book has a different narrator
and has a reasonable chain of narration. And
this is a series with, within the series
of humbleness is what I'm I'm covering. Before
I do that, just as a since it
came up, might as well point it out
now earlier than later. So as we move
along,
if you have a phone
if you have a phone, and if you
happen to have an app on the phone
that gives you,
you're gonna find that Isha is going to
be later,
than what you pray here.
So 10 years ago no. 11 years ago
now, when I came to London, I came
in middle of July, and it was
Ramadan. And I went to pray, and I
found that they were doing, Isha at 11:30,
So I thought it was insane. I thought
it was great. It's completely crazy. So I
I I play I prayed that year and
the year after at home. Like, I did
my it'll be my parents at home. And
then the year after that, when I went
went to LMM, I requested,
from
and and a few others to go out
and see if they can take a look
at the shafak. So Isha, unlike
and maybe
is a little bit more
subjective, a little bit more subjective.
The is you you have the thing in
the middle of the once once there's no,
there's and also it's just a matter of
whether you're a Hanafi or not and how
long is it the same length or twice
the length? Very simple. Very objective.
Once the the the the the sun dips
under the horizon, we're done. I shot in
special, they're a little bit more objective. It's
all based on a color that's going to
the first, you know, beam of light or
a light with a certain color they're gonna
see in the horizon. So it's not as
objective. There's some subjectivity to it. So I
asked them to go take a look and
so they went and they assessed it again.
And they assessed it and they used different
angles. And And they kept on using different
angles that were permissible until they found something
that allowed Maghre al Isha to be as
early as possible within this country within within.
And it wasn't for the fact that I
was scared that people would, Yani,
flip and lose their minds. I am actually
a fan of, of of being much more
aggressive than that. In in countries that are
in the northern hemisphere, where during the the,
yeah, I mean, the summer years, you have
Isha that go the the the time between
Isha and Fajr is significantly short to the
point where there's no night.
Is very reasonable alternative. It's very reasonable. At
some point in my life before I I
die, I'll probably do the and die so
that people can just, you know, curse me
in my death and then and then hopefully
people can do it and benefit from it.
Because honestly, this is what is needed in
these types of work. This is fatwa actually
that was that was given out 33 years
ago
by,
to people who were living at the time
in Germany. This is 33 years ago, way
before there was any jali Muslim jali in
any country that it was at least of
numbers. And they sent it a question saying
that Isha is 10:30
and Fajr is 4:30.
And of course, to for the Middle Eastern
people, that is insane because that's the at
least 2 hours difference in terms of of
day and night, and they were given the
fatwa to pray together. And this is fatwa
that that is online. You can take a
look at it. But I'm not gonna go
that far, at least not this year. But
I'm at least gonna stick to the earlier
issue that the shulk were able to, yeah,
establish from looking at the horizon. So it's
nothing we're not breaking any law. We just
look from different angles. So if you change
if you go to your app and you
change the,
what school of thought you're using to figure
out Isha, you'll find one that follows to
almost follows what we're doing with maybe a
a day a minute or two difference towards
the end of the latest isha goes here
is 10:39.
When I came here, it was 11:30
in July,
which is yeah. And you I just thought
that was nuts. So 10:39 is there. And
I still think think 10:39 is very, very
late, but I I think it's better than
11:30.
And so so that means that if you
come for a shot here, you have to
silence your phone
or else I'll lose my mind by the
end of the summer. You have to silence
the phones so that we don't have 50,
mobiles going off with Adan Isha in the
middle of salah. And it may not happen
for other messiah, for us it will for
sure happen. So when you come for Asia
and just make sure you silence your poem
before
and then silence it afterwards just so that
we don't end up listening to the all
these beautiful events happening while the imam is
trying to recite a surah or we're trying
to perform our salah. Alright. So the hadith
narrated by and
and within the, within the, theme of humbleness.
It's a really nice hadith. I don't know
if you've heard it before or not, but
if you haven't, you'll enjoy it. This is
what he said
So
the prophet alaihi wa sallam said that every
human being within his head, there's a certain
amount of wisdom.
That wisdom is held by one of the
by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. By the authority
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala he he when
the carries that hikma. If that
person shows humbleness, Allah says increase his his
hikma.
Increase his wisdom. And if this person becomes
arrogant, he says take away his take away
his his
his so this hadith
is interesting because it makes an association. The
prophet says it associates 2 things. He associates
humbleness
with wisdom.
Humbleness and arrogance with wisdom.
That the more humble you are, the more
likely it is that you're going to be
able to
gain wisdom,
have wisdom, and speak wisdom. And the more
arrogant you are, the less likely it is
you're going to be able to do that.
And this is a very simple law. If
you are humble, you will learn more.
Because you see people around you as sources
of knowledge. You see people around you as
walking experiences.
People who are gems who have something to
offer. If you're humble enough, you'll listen to
them. And if you listen to them, you'll
learn something from them. And that will increase
your wisdom. And if you're arrogant, you see
people as
something different.
As, you see them with a with a
in a different lens and you don't see
them as people who have anything to offer
you. If anything, they're they're, you know, they're
bothering you with their existence altogether. They're ignorant
and they know nothing and they don't so
you're not willing to listen to learn nothing
so your wisdom decreases. So even if you
take it outside of your metaphysical and you
just think about it logically this makes sense.
But this is what the prophet alaihis salatu
wa sallam tells us.
Every human being has wisdom,
but it's held.
And based on how much humbleness
or there is more of it will be
given or more of it will be taken
away. And this is just a reminder for
us that, yeah, in tawadua, not only and
and humbleness is not only something that is
it's not just realizing reality and living by
it, but it's also going to offer you
in life,
limits. It is going to it's going to
remove a lot of limits for you. You
don't we don't realize that. That being truly
humble lifts
limits. It removes barriers for us. Because we
don't want to do it. The next doesn't
wanna do it. The next likes to be
arrogant because it thinks by being arrogant, it
is on top. He doesn't understand that once
you humble yourself,
the limits of knowledge and the limits of
the limits of of almost everything become become
infinite. And and that's what the prophet here
is in a very simple and beautiful way
to explain to us.
