			never use I mean why Allah Allah
He was having he marine
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			My dear brothers and sisters so
it's my pleasure
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:33
			to welcome you to another episode
in our series lessons on a wider
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			hamster Cobra
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:42
			the grant five legal Maxim's and
their applications.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:49
			In today's episode, inshallah I
will explain some more details
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:57
			regarding the first legal Maxim
the most important legal maximum
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:02
			or more Wilma asset matters or
judged by intentions.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:08
			I will discuss first why is this
kinda important?
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			And what are the exceptions to the
role
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:20
			and place of leisure anywhere that
and we're just the bits and some
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			subsidiary rules.
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:29
			In this way we can have a better
picture that or we have this role
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			it shows up.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:38
			Why this car it up. If you look at
this car ADA deeply
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:45
			it has a moral and spiritual
dimension, it's not limited to
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			legal damage.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			It helps us
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:57
			to make out to formulate
intentions to think through our
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:04
			actions because our of our actions
have cosmic significance. So
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:11
			a little more Wilma Cassidy Ha is
trusting that we need to
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:17
			clear our mind we need to think
through the actions as we perform
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:21
			them. So it really helps us to
lead and examine life
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			and to shake off heedlessness
golf.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:33
			Golfer is the trait of the Carter
the animal who are acting by their
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:38
			instinct. They don't think to
their actions, but as human beings
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:46
			we need to think before we act. So
it helps us if we develop the
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			habit of
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:54
			cultivating the intentional act,
doing things intentionally. It
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:58
			helps us to develop willpower and
mindfulness
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:05
			subsidiary rule which is an
explanation of the same thing,
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:13
			further application exposition of
which Lhasa in Lavinia there is no
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			reward without intention.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:20
			This is especially true of the
acts of worship that we perform.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:26
			We have mentioned it earlier. But
let us go into little more detail.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			acts like a gospel
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			will.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:40
			This can be a rewarding an act of
worship, if we have the NIA but if
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:46
			you were to beit or perform that
ablution without the NIA is not an
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:51
			act of worship, the same way as
salah, sia and fasting hunch.
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			Everything more acts of worship.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:59
			For their validity, we need to
have that Nia or intention
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:07
			in other words, x for the acceptor
must be done solely for the sake
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:12
			of Allah subhanho wa taala. We
read in Quran verse eight Surah 18
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:17
			was one turn from Ankara Euro
Juliet Cara behave for Yama,
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:21
			Ramadan Solly hon wala usually can
vary by that you're a bit here
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:27
			Haida, so who are hopes to meet
his Lord? Let him perform
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			righteous deeds, and make no one a
partner unto His Lordship unto
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:33
			Lord in worship.
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:41
			For Leila when Aon, one of the
pious sages and saints of the
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:48
			regeneration said soundless,
sallahu. Amara is dependent on two
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:55
			conditions are based on two
pillars. Number one, the act we
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			perform must be in the first place
sanction should be allowed
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:06
			approved by allow smart water. And
number two, we must do them with a
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:07
			sincere intention
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:14
			of pressing the last one over Tara
otherwise, this virtuous deed is
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			not acceptable.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:21
			On the other hand, NIA if we have
the NIA intention,
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:28
			every single permissible app that
we do, can be rendered can be
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:29
			turned into an act of worship.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:36
			Or sola SallAllahu sallam said,
when you engage in that spousal
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:41
			relationship, intimacy with your
spouse, with your wife, that's an
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:42
			act of worship.
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:49
			Because if you do it, to guard
yourself to remain chaste,
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:56
			to be protected from sales, as an
act of worship, even as if he were
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:02
			to go out and do engage in an
extramarital affair, you will be
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:06
			punished the same way you will
have a reward for that permissible
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:11
			app, once it is done, for the sake
of protecting yourself.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:18
			Likewise, Nia, when you have the
need to resolve resolution resolve
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			in our mind to do something good.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:26
			But God forbid, we were prevented
from doing so in spite of our best
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			intentions,
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			because of circumstances beyond
our control,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:37
			then we are rewarded, as if we
have done it already.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:44
			The Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
said, if someone intended by going
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:48
			to bed before going to bed, to
wake up for tahajjud
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:57
			but because of that exertion, or
tiredness, or oversleep, he could
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			not wake up.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:05
			And he will get the reward because
he had that intention to do so.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:09
			But he was prevented because of
circumstances beyond his control.
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			So Allah will reward him for that
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:15
			someone wanted to give charity,
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:21
			but he didn't have anything to
give. So, you will be rewarded as
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:26
			if he has already given the
charity. In one of his expeditions
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			with this companions,
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:32
			the Prophet sallallaahu Salam was
gathered with his companions, he
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:38
			addressed them and said, We have
left behind us in Medina people
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:44
			there will be with us always
wherever we went, and every single
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:50
			expedition and winter We undertook
they were with us, but this time
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:55
			they could not make it because of
the loss or valid excuses. So they
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:59
			already shared the reward of this
expedition with us.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:05
			Now, another point to consider is
there is no accountability for
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:09
			words or actions that are not
intentional.
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:14
			If somebody uttered the words of
the was Carnac without any
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:18
			intention, just this word came out
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:23
			without intention, of course that
will not be considered as a valid
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:28
			divorce. Likewise, if somebody
extreme fit of anger
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:34
			driven by out of control and he is
not aware of the words He's
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:36
			speaking and He said to laughter
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:42
			and and later on he regretted it
that's not considered a valid
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:47
			tharok Simone liberal claim even
with maybe another subset, because
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:54
			Allah Tala coffee Allah Tala is
not valid. When the mind is
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:58
			blockage of mind when the and you
cannot you don't think
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:04
			you are not aware of what you say.
Thus Barataria says you know
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:09
			statements about that are not
intentional. Allah says, now you
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:12
			are who the Comala who will never
be free or Imani come, wherever
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:17
			you offer to come we mark cassava
to Google comm Wallah over for ID.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:22
			Allah will not call you to account
for take you to task for all three
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:27
			you have uttered and intentionally
but he will call you to account
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			what what do you mean in your
heart? God is the most forgiving
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:32
			and forbearing
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:40
			exceptions to the no role a little
more Wilma Cassidy ha. You are
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:45
			matters are judged by intentions
or reckon by intention. Exceptions
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:48
			is contracts that
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:54
			finalize what to believe or in
writing.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			For instance, a sale or lease
contract
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:07
			house sale house purchase. And you
have articulated that in writing,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:12
			or in words, and you signed it the
document, you cannot say I didn't
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:16
			have the intention. So it's an
exception, because these
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:20
			expressions as long as of course,
one has to be in a sober state of
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:25
			mind in full possession of senses,
and he is not endurace we have
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:30
			already mentioned that in the past
in the previous session. So as
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:35
			long as that is not the case, any
agreement we may make verbally or
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			in writing.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			We cannot
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:44
			excuse also by saying, I didn't
have the intention.
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:49
			But it's a different issue
altogether, when the expression
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:53
			the words used, not explicitly
indicating
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:56
			this is what can I.
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			So it requires Lea.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:04
			For example, if it says to be,
this car is you worse,
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:07
			is the NIA that
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:15
			that makes that determines whether
it was a sale or not. Because
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:21
			if the knee is to give it to him
free, as a gift,
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:27
			it's not considered a sale, it's a
hadiya. So the NEA make that
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:30
			distinction, whether it was a
sale, or a gift.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:32
			Likewise,
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:38
			the person matters says to his
wife, you are free.
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:45
			This is the NEA that decides
whether it consider a divorce. If
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:49
			he says no one should be in a
divorce, I meant to say that you
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:53
			are free to go home, you are free
to visit your parents or whatever.
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:58
			So Nia makes the distinction.
Crucial.
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:05
			Nia once again, is critical in
deciding the cases like you know,
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:12
			some Sometimes people put out a
jar to collect rainwater, and
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:17
			somebody came, and you know, you
know, throw it out.
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:24
			If then his Nia was that he put it
out to collect rainwater, and
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:29
			anyone who destroys that water who
takes away or does everything to
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:34
			interfere with that water. He
should be he's liable. They should
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:35
			pay.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:42
			If he if if it goes to the court,
or if the person wants a
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:49
			compensation ed to compensate for
you. Likewise, if a person pick up
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:55
			last articles, you're working and
you found something, a wallet or
		
00:12:55 --> 00:13:00
			something with money, and he
picked it up, and his intention
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:05
			was to keep it in trust for that
person. Whenever he arrives, he
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:09
			comes to crave it, he will
surrender it to him. If the
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:15
			intention while he picked up the
act was to give it to the rightful
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:19
			owner. Then suppose God forbid it
is taller,
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:23
			or it is destroyed by fire is not
liable.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:29
			If on the other hand, a person
picked it up. And he thought okay,
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:37
			now I can use it. It's mine. And
the owner comes and ask for it is
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:38
			liable.
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:43
			So they intentionally make that
different distinction. Another
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:49
			subsidiary rule, whoever
monostatic Russia Avila Awani
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:51
			Okay, Bobby arrow, Armani.
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:57
			Whoever has to get something
before it's due time, it will be
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59
			deprived of its benefit.
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:06
			An example is if God forbids a son
kills his father to claim the
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:11
			inheritance, then then that son
will be disqualified as your
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:17
			higher here, he will not be
receiving any share from that
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:22
			inheritance when it's time to
share. Cobble Awadhi Okay, Bobby
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:26
			Romani, he who over has allowed us
to get something before it's due
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:34
			time, it would be deprived of its
benefit as a penalty. So, these
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:39
			are some of the explanations. I
hope it will be in this way this
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:45
			we have a better understanding of
that gun legal Maxim or logo
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:50
			RubyMine. paucity. Inshallah, in
the coming sessions, we will visit
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:54
			some of the other legal Maxim's
Insha Allah, may Allah subhanho wa
		
00:14:54 --> 00:15:00
			Taala help us to benefit from
proper understanding
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:06
			In knowledge of religion to
enhance our understanding and
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:06
			practice of it
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13
