Allah homological hamdulillah Anamika Lima wa Reichert Asuma

00:00:11 --> 00:00:14

when you suddenly want to say more so even out wherever you know

00:00:14 --> 00:00:19

Mohammed, and maybe you Lamine wala Ali was a huge marine from

00:00:19 --> 00:00:24

bisra recently were still young, very raw rock with a thermal

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

rissani of Coco coli.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

My dear brothers and sisters, it's my pleasure to welcome you to

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

another episode in our series of

00:00:36 --> 00:00:44

discourse on the five grand legal maximum in Islam, and our Hamza

00:00:44 --> 00:00:48

Cobra. And today in today's session and the next one

00:00:48 --> 00:00:55

Inshallah, we will discuss the fifth most important legal maximum

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

in Islam, namely, Adam or her karma,

00:01:00 --> 00:01:07

custom can be the arbitrator, custom is decisive, it can be a

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

judge

00:01:09 --> 00:01:13

of course, in matters that are not regulated by text.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:25

Today, we will discuss the significance why this character is

00:01:25 --> 00:01:30

important and the meaning and definition and the sources

00:01:32 --> 00:01:39

from the Quran and Hadees and the examples from the sources to show

00:01:39 --> 00:01:43

the importance of this chi ADA inshallah.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:52

The chi, this chi dal either Maha kkOma that custom pay the judge

00:01:52 --> 00:01:55

custom is the decisive arbiter

00:01:56 --> 00:02:01

means that customary practices of people whether actions or

00:02:01 --> 00:02:07

statements, can be a deciding factor in the absence of specific

00:02:07 --> 00:02:14

texts. Of course, in Islam, we cannot bypass the clear text.

00:02:16 --> 00:02:20

If the text is clear and decisive, we must abide by it.

00:02:21 --> 00:02:27

So this rule applies to actions and statements customary practices

00:02:27 --> 00:02:28

of people.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:35

And it can be taken as a judge decisive in determining and making

00:02:35 --> 00:02:41

a ruling on matters which is not covered by tax, or even in case of

00:02:41 --> 00:02:47

a general text, there is a general text, then customer practice can

00:02:47 --> 00:02:51

be used to restrict its application qualify its

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

application or limits its application.

00:02:55 --> 00:02:58

What this shows is the dynamic nature of Sharia,

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

that Sharia is not something stagnant

00:03:04 --> 00:03:10

it can be adapted to changing circumstances to meet the

00:03:10 --> 00:03:15

challenges and issues we face. In real practical life.

00:03:17 --> 00:03:21

There are two words we need to understand to understand this car

00:03:21 --> 00:03:25

either this legal Maxim a car either

00:03:26 --> 00:03:32

one of the greatest five, great legal Maxim's two words are

00:03:32 --> 00:03:35

important one is all of the other is either

00:03:36 --> 00:03:41

sometimes some scholars use it in the same sense, but many scholars

00:03:41 --> 00:03:47

differ in their precise definitions. One day use earth

00:03:47 --> 00:03:51

according to the role of refers to practice of a large group of

00:03:51 --> 00:03:58

people majority for instance, of whereas other refers to the

00:03:58 --> 00:04:03

practices of a specific group or community or individual.

00:04:05 --> 00:04:10

Other is defined as recurring thing without rational and

00:04:10 --> 00:04:11

irrational Association.

00:04:13 --> 00:04:19

Recurring practices, acceptable to people of sound nature

00:04:20 --> 00:04:26

or of is defined as the verbal or nonverbal habitual practices of

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

the majority of people within a community.

00:04:31 --> 00:04:35

Of course, all of this will be discussed in detail in the next

00:04:35 --> 00:04:39

session Inshallah, they were all fish tied to the Quranic concept

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

of maruf.

00:04:41 --> 00:04:47

Which is one of the cardinal principles or imperatives of, of

00:04:47 --> 00:04:51

the Quran, that which is considered as commonly good.

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

Can we also use good custom good practice?

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

The Quran enjoins the Muslims

00:05:00 --> 00:05:05

How to come on my roof. That which is good and for big bad which is

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07

Moonga or evil

00:05:09 --> 00:05:14

that OMO alta COVID. Co Mattoon the owner of higher oil Morona

00:05:14 --> 00:05:16

Wilmont roof when Hold on,

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

this is an imperative.

00:05:20 --> 00:05:24

Allah also orders this messenger in another place in surah. Seven

00:05:24 --> 00:05:32

00:05:32 --> 00:05:38

two part any meaning excuse people and part of the for the slipups

00:05:38 --> 00:05:44

for their mistakes and joy in what is fair and right and turn away

00:05:44 --> 00:05:45

from the ignorant

00:05:48 --> 00:05:51

it's clear from the elbow that it is a revelation

00:05:52 --> 00:05:56

and not reason that determines what is good and bad.

00:05:57 --> 00:06:00

It's not actually urine they are not actually urine they are they

00:06:00 --> 00:06:05

are sorry, it is the SRA in the low GI where is the revelation

00:06:05 --> 00:06:11

that would tell us what is good for us and what is bad for us. So,

00:06:11 --> 00:06:18

we are not talking about customs, which has which is not approved in

00:06:18 --> 00:06:22

Sharia. As such all of is acceptable only when it does not

00:06:22 --> 00:06:27

contravene or contradict any of the principles of the Sharia.

00:06:28 --> 00:06:32

Now the sources were aware the scholars have

00:06:34 --> 00:06:42

their evidence in the sources to accept to adopt this car either as

00:06:42 --> 00:06:43

one of the

00:06:44 --> 00:06:50

principles or rules for interpreting or applying or, or

00:06:50 --> 00:06:55

bringing out new rulings for the changing circumstances. The

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

following examples

00:06:58 --> 00:07:06

can are taken by scholars as evidence that customers are often

00:07:06 --> 00:07:07

either

00:07:08 --> 00:07:12

our acceptable sources of the shittier secondary sources of

00:07:12 --> 00:07:13

tissue.

00:07:14 --> 00:07:18

The last one our data says about the rights of women while Onami

00:07:18 --> 00:07:23

solely on a human level models and women have rights similar to their

00:07:23 --> 00:07:27

obligations according to what is fair.

00:07:28 --> 00:07:32

The worst leaves it to the fair standard of decency in the

00:07:32 --> 00:07:33

community.

00:07:34 --> 00:07:41

So it is the fairness determined by the community. In another eye

00:07:41 --> 00:07:44

allows one author says law you offer the common law who belongs

00:07:44 --> 00:07:50

where your money come. We're lucky in your local market to laymen for

00:07:50 --> 00:07:55

California to that arm wash at MSRP in our city motto table li

00:07:55 --> 00:08:01

como Cusco God will not take you to task for that which is

00:08:01 --> 00:08:06

frivolous in your oath, bots. But he will take you to task for the

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

odds, your pledge in earnest

00:08:10 --> 00:08:14

expiation, they're all a the feeding of 10 Indian people poor

00:08:14 --> 00:08:20

people with the equivalent of that which you feed your own family or

00:08:20 --> 00:08:21

clotting dumb

00:08:26 --> 00:08:31

because leaves the measure of the standard of living and practice in

00:08:31 --> 00:08:35

each community, to the standard. The statements and the standards

00:08:35 --> 00:08:40

and practices in such matters differ from culture to culture,

00:08:40 --> 00:08:45

and country to country. They also vary according to the standard of

00:08:45 --> 00:08:51

living of individuals, the middle class family, the upper class

00:08:51 --> 00:08:58

family, and the standard the Kraft family below that. So it varies

00:08:58 --> 00:09:01

from individuals, families and communities.

00:09:03 --> 00:09:07

Another example from the tradition of the Prophet is in the wife of

00:09:07 --> 00:09:12

Abu Sufian, Royal Loulou came to the Prophet complaining about her

00:09:12 --> 00:09:18

husband, that above Sophia is a backheel is a stingy person. He

00:09:18 --> 00:09:22

does not provide for the family sufficiently enough to support

00:09:22 --> 00:09:22

them.

00:09:24 --> 00:09:30

So she is forced to take from his world without his knowledge that

00:09:30 --> 00:09:35

the Prophet said she wanted to ask the Prophet whether it is allowed

00:09:35 --> 00:09:39

for her to do so the prophets replied Yes, take from his wealth

00:09:39 --> 00:09:43

in fair measure, as much as it is sufficient to support you and your

00:09:43 --> 00:09:48

children. So the Prophet Sal allowed some left it to Hilde to

00:09:48 --> 00:09:53

decide how much she can take based on their living standard

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

that is acceptable in the community at the time.

00:09:59 --> 00:09:59

In

00:10:00 --> 00:10:04

Yet another insolence instance. You know this is a case where

00:10:05 --> 00:10:10

overworld tabula are no wonder to make an endowment, whatever

00:10:10 --> 00:10:15

wealthy acquired in Hiber. He wanted to set up an unknown when

00:10:15 --> 00:10:21

they walk in the Prophet said to him, you know, when you do that

00:10:21 --> 00:10:26

the manager of the trust the work is allowed to support himself from

00:10:26 --> 00:10:32

this the income, the yield, according to fair standard and

00:10:32 --> 00:10:37

measure. So here again, it's clear that the Prophet sallallahu

00:10:37 --> 00:10:41

wasallam allowed for the custom and the orphan to rule

00:10:42 --> 00:10:43

to decide what is fair.

00:10:45 --> 00:10:49

Scholars also cite another tradition from Abdullah Massoud.

00:10:49 --> 00:10:55

This is not a direct statement of the Prophet and without Islam, but

00:10:55 --> 00:10:59

a statement of Abdullah Al Massoud, and it is understood that

00:10:59 --> 00:11:04

when the Sahaba like Abu Hamza Masuda prominent Cambodian, makes

00:11:04 --> 00:11:09

a statement like that is even based on his own opinion. So he

00:11:09 --> 00:11:15

has precedents for that. He has inferred it from the practice or

00:11:15 --> 00:11:19

the statements of the profit and loss statement is very important.

00:11:19 --> 00:11:26

He says, As reported by Ahmed were humble rahamallah, former Muslim

00:11:26 --> 00:11:27

owner Hassan for

00:11:28 --> 00:11:33

whatever Muslims consider as good, it is good in the sight of Allah

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

small

00:11:35 --> 00:11:39

liberal Masuda was referring to the practice of the companions of

00:11:39 --> 00:11:39

the Prophet,

00:11:40 --> 00:11:44

for instance, who chose a woodworker as the first character.

00:11:45 --> 00:11:50

So he meant to teach us that whenever pious believers here a

00:11:50 --> 00:11:55

Baja general Tsar pious believers like them agree on a course of

00:11:55 --> 00:12:01

action, it can be considered as good for the entire Muslim

00:12:01 --> 00:12:07

community cannot conquer on an evil course of action.

00:12:09 --> 00:12:14

The Prophet sallallahu sallam said that as I wrote over to minority

00:12:14 --> 00:12:14

law he did

00:12:16 --> 00:12:19

lie alone room and have no room there will be a group of my

00:12:19 --> 00:12:25

community always rather informally to the group, there will not be no

00:12:25 --> 00:12:30

the opposition or the people, those who want to oppose them will

00:12:30 --> 00:12:35

not be they will not be deterred by that. So brothers and sisters,

00:12:35 --> 00:12:38

here is the first of the episode.

00:12:39 --> 00:12:43

We have already discussed the meaning of this and the sources

00:12:43 --> 00:12:47

and some of the examples from the Quran and Sunnah. In the next

00:12:47 --> 00:12:51

episode Inshallah, we will apply some of the qualifications,

00:12:52 --> 00:12:56

applications find out other applications and also the

00:12:56 --> 00:13:00

qualifications and some of the other subsidiary rules. May Allah

00:13:00 --> 00:13:07

subhanaw taala Bressan to benefit from the sound Islamic knowledge

00:13:07 --> 00:13:12

so that we enhance our faith and practice of Islam of Guru kolyada

00:13:13 --> 00:13:17

Whilst Aphrodite welcome was Salam o Alaikum Warahmatullahi
