Abu Dawood with a reasonable chain of narration
written by Ibn Huraira This is the final
hadith within the theme of makruhat al-salah
or the unrecommended actions during prayer They will
be playlisted together on Facebook and YouTube Share
them with your kids, make sure that they
know what they are so that they can
inshallah learn to stay away from these things
We will inshallah continue and talk about the
etiquettes or adab al-salah later on in
the year inshallah ta'ala Starting next week
we'll start sharing inshallah the shama'il of
the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam Within the
month of Rabi' al-awwal I think it's
a nice habit to maintain The final makruh
that I want to point out to you
is what the Prophet alayhi salatu wa salam
pointed out He pointed out two things, I'm
going to focus on one The other one
is a little more controversial and a little
more difficult to understand Qala Abu Huraira The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam For someone to
cover their faces Scholars have understood this in
different ways The way that I think is
most appropriate for understanding it Is regarding dress
code, it's not regarding where you put your
hands Because the madhab have different opinions on
where to put your hands when you pray
And the malikis don't say that you necessarily
need to put it down And it's a
reasonable opinion, it's an acceptable opinion within the
madhab And you can follow it if you
like to But the sadr that he's pointing
out here is regarding how you dress your
clothes Because the second piece of advice is
also about clothing It's about covering the mouth
So when you're praying you should be dressed
in a way that is suitable to meet
and speak And be in the presence of
the Almighty subhanahu wa ta'ala So you
shouldn't be covering your face You shouldn't be
wearing your clothes in a way where one
shoulder is covered and the other isn't Or
you're wearing a jacket and the hands are
not being You have the hands just kind
of lying on the side You're dressed in
a way that's inappropriate in the presence of
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala Because you wouldn't
enter the room of a respected person in
that manner So it's a makrooh in salah
for someone to come dressed in a way
that is not proper Like they're not properly
wearing their clothing Or they're covering their mouths
And this goes for men and women by
the way Covering the face during salah is
makrooh You shouldn't be covering your mouth Unless
of course you're in a position where covering
your face is necessary for you not to
die Because it's very cold and you're praying
outside in the open somewhere in Antarctica in
the middle of winter But aside from that
you shouldn't cover your face And you should
wear your clothes in a way that is
suitable to meet And I see this happen
here a little bit How you dress outside
the masjid is fine How you dress in
general is not But when it comes to
salah try to make sure that you have
an alternative Or a way so that you're
dressed appropriately to stand in front of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala So you don't have
sadal and your clothes aren't being dressed in
a way that's inappropriate And you're not covering
your face or covering your mouth in a
way To add to that When you're wearing
clothing for salah try to avoid And this
could be seen as a makrooh Some scholars
don't really see it to be that But
I think it's worthy of sharing with you
Try not to wear clothing that have pictures
of living things on them And if you
do have something on top to cover it
So if there's nothing wrong with you wearing
a shirt that has some political statement Or
some ethical or social statement And there's a
face of someone Like I've seen people come
in with pictures of Malcolm X or Muhammad
Ali or something It's fine, in salah it's
better if that is covered Like it's best
if that is not apparent And that's just
regarding clothing in general A last meaning for
sadal and I'll end with that inshallah Is
that you shouldn't be wearing clothing that you
drag on the ground during salah Now you
shouldn't do that in general obviously But in
salah specifically that should be avoided Like you
should be wearing clothing that you're not dragging
on the floor during salah Because it doesn't
look very And that's why a lot of
my teachers They never wore a abaya for
salah Which is very common They would wear
a jubbah And it's a little bit different
Because the abaya tends to be much longer
So you're standing there, especially if you're short
like me Wearing the abaya and half of
it is on the ground Because it was
made for a tree of a person The
jubbah usually is a little bit shorter So
it doesn't drag on the ground And that's
something that Prophet Ali pointed out And it
all comes from making sure that When you're
in the presence of Allah subhanahu wa ta
'ala So when we talk about yawning When
we talk about excessive movements in your hand
Talk about having pictures in front of you
Or towards your qibla when you're praying Talk
about wandering with your eyes Now when we
talk about praying when you have to go
to the bathroom Or food is just being
put there All of these things are makrooh
Because they take away from your ability to
pray appropriately To focus And it shows that
you're not necessarily aware Of the status of
the one who you're in the presence of
during salah Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala So
all of these things that Prophet Ali told
us not to do And they're makroohat If
you remove them in your salah Then insha
'Allah you are in a better position In
at least revering and respecting Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala As you speak to him I
hope that was of benefit to you Imam
Abu Dawood and Imam Al-Tirmidhi Narrated in
a correct way All of them in his
Jamia and Musnad Abu Huraira May Allah be
pleased with him That the Prophet, peace and
blessings be upon him and his family Forbade
yawning during prayer And that a man should
cover his mouth The Messenger of Allah, peace
and blessings be upon him, said Subhanahu wa
ta'ala There is no god but You.
Peace and blessings be upon you And blessings
be upon our Master and Beloved Muhammad And
upon his family and companions May Allah reward
you well
