00:00:21 --> 00:00:24
			It's a chapter regarding the emphasis of the
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:25
			2 rakas,
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			that are sunnah before the prayer, before the
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			fajr prayer.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			Then
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			he used to never leave praying for before,
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			nor
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			leave praying to,
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00
			before
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			the,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			means for the morning to rise.
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			And the the
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			is the
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:11
			it's
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			the is the is the is the is
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			the is the is the
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			is
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:17
			the morning prayer.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:18
			And
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:22
			generally speaking, it will be referred to formally
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			in, like, legal text as the Salat al
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			Subhih.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			The word fajr is the beginning of the
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			time of the subhih prayer.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			The subh prayer begins at Fajr, which is
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			a crack of dawn, and it ends at
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			it ends at
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			at the time that the top of the
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			disc of the sun,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			hits the horizon.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			But it's a prayer.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			And here, the word hada is used in
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			it's used in a number of hadith in
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			this bab. But the prophet
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			never used to, leave praying for rakaz before,
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			nor did he ever used to leave praying
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			2 rakas,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:58
			before,
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			Sobha,
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			before the Sato Khadat,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			which
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			who's saying it? It's his wife.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			So she would know.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			There are a lot of people will tell
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			you about somebody they've only met once or
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			twice, and, you know, it's good to have
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			a good opinion of people.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			But, if you're actually going to, like, buy,
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			sell, trade, marry,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			etcetera, you may wanna do a little bit
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			more than that. One of the really interesting
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:26
			things about the Rasulullah
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			alaihi wasalam is that his children, grandchildren,
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:31
			his wives,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			and close companions,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			the the people who used to be servants
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			in his house, all of these people narrate
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			things about him
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			not in Qalaqila, but in Kathra.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			Not not a small amount, but a large
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:46
			amount. Saidna Anas bin Malik is one of
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			the more
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			prolific narrators from the Messenger of Allah
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			He's a servant in the house.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			And he's from the Ansar. So he neither
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			becomes a governor
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:02
			after after the, nor does he become, you
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			know, like a big shot, potentate military officer,
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			any of that stuff.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			In fact, he he he
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			he did fight in in in in the
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			the the wars of conquest,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:14
			and he did fight in the wars of
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:15
			apostasy.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			And so he had his pension from that
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			because of which he was he was a
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21
			he was a relatively wealthy man. He wasn't
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:23
			poor. But he never
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			enjoyed any sort of command position in the
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			army nor did he ever,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			enjoy any sort of political appointment. Like Salman
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			al Farsier was
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:32
			the
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			about about how he would be treated badly
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:46
			by people because they just thought he's like
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			some old man, like some beggar or something
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			like that. Because he used to live real
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:49
			simple.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			So and he lived to a very, very,
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			long age.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:54
			And,
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			so these types of people,
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			they narrate Saydah Aisha
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			also is one of the most prolific of
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:02
			narrators.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			They narrate so much,
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:07
			with regards to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			And especially in the case of the Muhammad
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			Al Muineen, it was very famous saying, Nama
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:12
			radiallahu anhu,
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			he respected them so much that even when
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			they went against his opinion, he would stay
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			quiet. He wouldn't
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			he would have chastised them for not basically
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			going with the with the plan or with
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			the program.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			And it said that the last year of
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			his life it's not like he knew he
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			was dying. He was assassinated. Right? The last
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			year of his life, he actually took them
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			took all of the
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			like there's a special entourage that that took
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			them to Hajj and brought them back. So
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:37
			he considered he considered treating them to be,
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			treating them well and with honor to be
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			a part of the deen, which it is.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			And anyone who would speak ill of them
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			is, really only speaking ill of the Messenger
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:47
			But,
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			but but
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			in that situation, Seda Aisha
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			who was 18 when the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			wasallam passed away.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			If she wanted to say anything bad about
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			him or anything that didn't conform to the
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			rest of the,
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			to the rest of the program, she could
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			have, and she probably would have gotten away
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:06
			with it. And she was at such an
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			age as well that, like,
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			you know, 18 year old kids are not,
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			you know, they're not they're they're not, like,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			you know, the most, like, loyal,
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			the most loyal, like,
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			supporters of the regime. You know what I
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			mean?
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			Rebellion is usually pushed by youth, both in
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			the home and politically as well.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:27
			And so,
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			had all the reasons to be frustrated,
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			by normal human human
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:34
			circumstance.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:36
			Youth,
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			her and her husband passed away at the
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			age of 18. This is actually Moana Amin
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			and Dar Al Kasten is one of the
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:45
			really interesting things that he mentioned one time.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:46
			He said that look at the look at
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			the comparison.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:52
			People make allegations against the prophet
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:53
			because
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:54
			of
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			her young age. But what they forget is
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			that the
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:58
			the the,
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			say, the Mariam, alayhis salam, the Virgin Mary,
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:05
			she she herself,
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07
			according to, like,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			Christian
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:11
			sources, was around the same age when she
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			conceived of say conceived Sayna
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			And, after he was born,
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			she actually, according to the Christians, she married.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			Most many Muslims don't know this, but Christians
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			know this. So she married, and she also
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			had, you know, she she also, like, had
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			a had a normal life after that, quote,
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			unquote.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			And so he said whose
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			is say that Mariam Alaihi Salam is known
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35
			for her purity because she was, she was
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:36
			a virgin
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			at the time that Seda, alaihis salam, was
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:39
			conceived.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			So whose,
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:42
			whose,
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:44
			whose was
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:45
			greater?
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			The one who,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:48
			at the young
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			at at the, you know, at through her
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			teenage years experienced
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			the the the,
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:56
			enjoyment of human intimacy
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			between spouses, and then for the rest of
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			her life,
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:02
			had to make mujahada,
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			versus the one who just some years in
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			her youth, she had to make mujahada
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:07
			and
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:10
			not, not,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			experience that. Then afterward, the whole rest of
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			her life, she,
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:18
			she was according to Christian sources, she was
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			married, and
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:20
			she, she,
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:24
			experienced that after which Mujahideh is stronger. It's
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			greater. And so you can imagine, say, that
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			Aisha
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			that she's a very young age, and there's
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:31
			a great amount of and a great amount
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:34
			of of of of struggle that she has
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:35
			to do in order to,
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:37
			close this door,
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			of of human necessity,
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			and still, despite all of that. So all
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			these things put together that, you know and
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			the fact that nobody is going to check
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:47
			her if she says anything,
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			rather what she says is something that has
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			to be considered part of the deen. Not
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:55
			just her. There's so many other Azwaj Muhtaharat,
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:59
			that all of them could have said whatever
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			they wanted to whenever, and none of them
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			have a complaint to say against the prophet
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. She'll complain against Sayyidina
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			Umar from time to time. She'll complain against
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			other other other, people what they do and
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:11
			what they say. She doesn't hold back from
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			saying what she wants. She never complains against
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:15
			the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam nor against her
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:17
			own circumstance nor does she say anything
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:21
			with regards to what her experiences in life
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			have been. And so that's fine if, you
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			know, some people on a university campus around
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			Fox News wanna say, oh, look how horrible
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			abuse this is, whatever. I don't know which,
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:33
			which person treats his wife, in such a
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:35
			way that she'll never say anything against him
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:36
			for so many decades.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			That's not that's not a normal thing, but
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			it's it's what? It's a sign of
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:44
			abnormally good treatment rather than anything else. Well,
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			coming back to the main point, if he
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			ever, would miss it, she would have said
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			so, but she said he never he never
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			missed it. He never missed 4 rakaz before
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:53
			the,
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			and nor did he
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:57
			miss the,
		
00:08:58 --> 00:08:59
			the,
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:03
			2 rakahs before the the subhih prayer. 4
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			rakahs before zuhr, the said that it's best
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			that they should be prayed separately 2 by
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			2.
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			And then the Shafrei and the Hanafeez, they
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			say it's valid. You can correct me if
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			I'm wrong, Shahir. This is valid if you
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			put them together and just pray for with
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			1 salaam. Right? The Hanafeez. Is that correct?
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:22
			No. I'm not sure. You're not sure? My
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24
			my my understanding from my reading of fef
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:25
			is that that,
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			in the Hanafi school, whenever you pray for
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:29
			rakaz of
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:30
			of of,
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			of these sunnahs together like that. You pray
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			them as if they're 2 separate, full 2
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:38
			rak'ah prayers. Meaning that you read the Fatiha
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			and another Surah and every one of the
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:42
			rak'ahs and that in the Teshahood in the
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:45
			middle you also read the entire Teshahood. The
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:46
			only difference is that you don't say salaam
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			between
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			rakat 23.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:52
			But in the Maliki school, all the nawafil
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			are are done in sets of 2,
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			with the exception of the wither, which is
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			just one separate.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			The word nafil, by the way, in this,
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			there's 2 meanings. There's a general meaning and
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			there's a meaning,
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:11
			specific meaning. General meaning is something that's not
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:11
			far.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			And the specific meaning is,
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:18
			within those nonfard prayers, there are different dala
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20
			jaf. There are different levels of importance.
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:23
			So it's important to know what context in
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:24
			which the word nafil is being used when
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			you read somebody's
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			when you read somebody's statement.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			He would never be there he was never
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			more intense in his
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			seeking,
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:57
			not to miss
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:01
			any non farted prayer than he was in
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			seeking not to miss the 2 rakaz of
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:04
			Fajr.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:07
			Is to look for something,
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			that that's not in front of your eyes.
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			That that that you're you're you have some
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:13
			sort of,
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:17
			some sort of, like, agitation that there's something
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			that you're looking for and you can't see
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			her right now. So you're, like, looking for
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			it intensely or you're kind of agitated until
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:24
			you find it you're not gonna be you're
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			not gonna be you're not you're not gonna
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			be calm again.
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:31
			So the the the the consensus of the
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:33
			Ummah is that the 2 rak'ahs before the
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			subhih prayer are not far, but from the
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:37
			nawafil, those are the
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			those are the 2 rak'ahs that the messenger
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:39
			of
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			Allah was most
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			avid in in in not missing, and he'd
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:45
			he'd he'd
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:47
			he'd get, like, he made sure that he
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			didn't miss it ever. And if if if
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52
			so right? Generally, those types of things, if
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			so, the only reason that they're missed is
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:54
			just
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:56
			to show that it's not far.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:58
			Otherwise, the prophet
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			didn't didn't, you know, used to used to
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:01
			miss those 2
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			those 2 rakaat, and he would be avid
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:04
			not to miss
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:07
			them, more so than usual. More so than
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:07
			usual.
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			The the in the Maliki madhhab, that's why
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:14
			the 2 rakaats before
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:17
			the they're they're called
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			but
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			they're not called.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			They're in a special category of their own,
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			that a person should have missed them. Okay.
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:26
			Well, the reason for that, we'll we'll get
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:28
			to as we read through
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:46
			So this is a, an interesting
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:49
			hadith,
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:51
			narrated by Saidna,
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:53
			Bilal bin Raba
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:56
			Anhu Afan.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			And,
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			people know.
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:06
			His mother's name was Hamama, which is a
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			word meaning dove.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			We mentioned this before as well.
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			People
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:15
			stigmatize the the the the black skin color,
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:18
			of many of our brothers and sisters from
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:18
			Africa.
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:19
			And,
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			they don't understand that that's something that that
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			has crept into the Ummah from
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			later. It's not even a part of the
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:27
			original,
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			disposition of the Arabs even in Jahiliya much
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			less of Islam.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:34
			And, one of the reasons or one of
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			the proofs of that is why is it
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:39
			that Saidna Bilal radiAllahu anhan, his mother who
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:41
			are Ethiopians or of Ethiopian origin?
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:44
			Why are they slaves in their Arabian Peninsula?
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:47
			And, generally, how do slaves get captured?
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50
			You go invade someone's country, you conquer it,
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			and you bring slaves back. The Arabs never
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:53
			captured Abyssinia.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			There wasn't it was never I mean, it
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			was never even a competition. Abyssinia had a
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			very powerful
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			a very powerful state, and a very powerful
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			empire, a very powerful army. The Arabs never
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:04
			were in a position to be able to
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:06
			fight with them. In fact, the Abyssinians came
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:08
			to destroy the the the Kaaba, which is
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			the most sacred, like, temple in all of
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			Arabia,
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:14
			and the Arabs were unable to oppose them.
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:18
			In fact, the Kaaba was spared miraculously
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			through the intervention of Allah Ta'ala, which is
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			enshrined in the Quran,
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:27
			and that that intervention, it's, the miraculous nature
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:29
			of that intervention is was known by all
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:30
			even in Jahiliyyah.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			Otherwise, they had there was no competition whatsoever.
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:37
			And so what happens is that the Ahbash
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:39
			that are slaves in the Arabian Peninsula,
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:42
			once once the the the Abyssinians are driven
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:43
			out
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			of Arabia, those are the the the descendants
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			of the people who weren't able to make
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			it out.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			They were enslaved.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:53
			And so in that sense, being black or
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			being African wasn't
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57
			wasn't a sign of
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:58
			servitude,
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:01
			as much as I was basically
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:02
			a,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:05
			a, what you call, adverse
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:10
			consequence of what of having themselves been subjugated
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:11
			by Africans,
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			from the beginning. So Saidna,
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:16
			Bilal, his mother, her name is Hamama,
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:17
			and,
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:19
			he was born,
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:24
			in Makkamukarama,
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:26
			and he was one of the first people
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:28
			to accept Islam, and he was one of
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			the first people to declare his Islam openly,
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			and he was one of the people who
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:34
			was most severely tortured,
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			because of his Islam,
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:39
			and his slave master,
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:43
			his slave master, Umayyah, tortured him,
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:46
			and was had Umayyah bin Khalaf yet. He
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:47
			had the intention of torturing him
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:48
			to
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:50
			death. And, he,
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:53
			he was purchased
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:54
			by Sin Abu Bakr
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58
			for 5 of gold,
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:01
			which is not a small amount of money.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:02
			How much is
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:03
			a
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			you remember from your
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:08
			you're reading Hidayah. Right?
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:09
			I don't know. Not yet?
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			I think is 4040 dirhams.
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:17
			40 dirhams dirhams is, like, 33 grams.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:19
			So 40 worth of gold
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:22
			is, is is is it's it's it's it's
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			a lot of money.
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27
			And, and so he he purchased him and
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:28
			says, the Omar
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:30
			used to say about Abu Bakr
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			that he is our master and he manumitted
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:34
			our master.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			Out of both honor of
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:38
			and
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:40
			and and the honor of
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42
			Bilal Radiallahu Anhu.
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:46
			Of course, Abu, Bilal Radiallahu Anhu was given
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:48
			the honor of returning the favor on the
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:49
			battlefield of Uhud
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:50
			when he
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			when he killed, the same Umayyah,
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:57
			in in in battle. Umayyah was a corpulent
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:58
			and fat man,
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:00
			and he put on his armor,
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			and
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			he fell from his horse,
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			and he was unable to move.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:07
			And so he tried to basically
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09
			bribe,
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:11
			or offer a bribe to,
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:13
			one of the Muslims
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			that, you know, if you capture me, you
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			don't kill me, then we'll give you x,
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:19
			y, and z amount of money. You can
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:21
			take my armor and all this other stuff.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:22
			And so then when you say,
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:25
			and and that
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			that that that person from the Muslim army,
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:32
			he he saw that he's in the middle
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			of him, like, as if he's trying to,
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:35
			you know, kind of protect him in order
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:36
			to capture him.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			Shouted that there's, you know, there's no way
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:44
			that both Bilal and this man can survive.
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:45
			And,
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:46
			then,
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:48
			that person, he just kinda shrugged his shoulders
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			and told him, hey, sorry. There's no way
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			you're gonna get saved today. And, said that
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:55
			Bilal put Umayyah out of his misery.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:58
			And not only was he
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			there at Badr, but he was there at
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			all the battles with the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:04
			wa sallam, and he was the Mu'adhun, the
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:05
			first one who gave the adhan,
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:06
			and he,
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			would give the adhan
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			for the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam during
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:12
			his lifetime,
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:13
			both in travel and in residence.
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:17
			After Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam passed away,
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			Saidna Bilal went to Sham and participated
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:20
			in
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:22
			its conquest,
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:23
			on behalf of the Muslims,
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			and he gave the Adhan,
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:27
			once.
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			It said for Saydna Abu Bakr afterward
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:33
			and once in Shamu, it said that Umar
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			who visited and all of them cried.
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:38
			And once, when he saw in a dream
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:39
			that the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			sallam asked him why didn't why don't you
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			visit me? So he came to Madinah Munawara,
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:47
			and it's said that many of the Sahaba
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:50
			asked him for to give the adhan including
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:51
			the grandsons of the prophet
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:54
			So he began the adhan,
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			and,
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:57
			everyone came out,
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			out of surprise of hearing his adhan again,
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:01
			including even the women came from out from
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			their houses to hear it, and he started
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			it, and everyone began to weep, and he
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:07
			was unable to finish.
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:11
			And a great number of Sahaba radiAllahuhan whom
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:13
			was narrated hadith from him, including Said Abu
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:15
			Bakr, Saidin Omar, Said Ali,
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:18
			and he was
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:21
			passed away in Damascus, and he's most,
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:21
			most
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:24
			well known that he's buried at the, Al
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:26
			Bab al Sahir had a small gate,
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:29
			in Damascus, which I think is close to
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:31
			where the Mahd al Fat al Islami is
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:31
			nowadays.
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			And
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:36
			he has
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:40
			he has 40 hadith that are
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:42
			attributed to to him.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:45
			And there are 5 of them in the
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:46
			Sahihain.
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:48
			One, Bukhari narrates,
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:52
			alone. Sorry.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			One of them Bukhari narrates, and then
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:00
			one of them,
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:01
			sorry, 2
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:03
			I was gonna say,
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:10
			So sorry, there are 4 of them that
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:11
			come in the,
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:14
			math doesn't add up. So I didn't hear
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			he says that he says that the bin
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:17
			Allah says that the sheikhin,
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			narrate one of them and Bukhari,
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:23
			narrates 2 of them, and Muslim narrates 1
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:24
			of them, and the rest of them are
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:26
			found in the other, the other collections of
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:28
			hadith. And so,
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:32
			had had a very close and personal relationship
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:34
			with the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:34
			sallam,
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:36
			and with his family
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:42
			and so,
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:43
			he came
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			to wake up the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:48
			sallam or to at least alert him get
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:49
			his attention for fajr.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			And so,
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:54
			and there's no harm in saying to wake
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			him either because Rasool Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:58
			sallam habit, alisa to sound to wake up
		
00:21:58 --> 00:21:59
			for tajjud,
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:01
			and to and after the tajjud time was
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:03
			over, to rest a little bit before,
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:07
			before getting up for for for Fajr.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:09
			So he came to the messenger
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:10
			to
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:13
			alert him with regards to the Fajr prayer,
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:14
			and say the Aisha
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19
			she asked him something which occupied him. She
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:21
			asked him to do something or asked him
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:21
			some question,
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:24
			which occupied him,
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			for a longer than anticipated amount of time
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:28
			until,
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:31
			they were well into the
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:33
			well into the time of Fajr.
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:36
			And so when Sayyidina Bilal
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			was finally able to go to the Messenger
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:40
			of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:43
			He again alerted him
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:44
			to,
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:47
			the fact that it's the Fajr time, and
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:49
			when he didn't get a an answer,
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:51
			he just repeatedly
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:54
			would call again to the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:55
			wa sallam again and again.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:57
			And the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:59
			sallam didn't come out immediately, took him some
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:00
			time to come
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:03
			out. And so when the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:04
			Wasallam came out to the people,
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:06
			said Nabiullah
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:11
			as if to explain
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:14
			why things didn't go like according to the
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:15
			normal plan,
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:20
			this morning, he informed the messenger of Allah
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			that said, Aisha,
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			she had asked him for some things which
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:25
			occupied him,
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:29
			more so than he thought they would,
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:30
			until
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:33
			the time became well into the Fajr time.
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:34
			And,
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:36
			then he asked the messenger of Allah Sallallahu
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			Alaihi Wasallam why it was it took him
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:39
			so long to come out.
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:40
			And
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:45
			he,
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:49
			whereby he asked, oh messenger of Allah,
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:53
			that you've come up quite a bit after
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:54
			the rise of Fajr.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:58
			And the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:58
			sallam
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:00
			said,
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:09
			Prophet answered the question
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:11
			by saying that,
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:14
			he was asked why, you know, why it
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15
			took so long for him to come out?
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:17
			And he answered the question saying that I
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:19
			was praying the 2 rakas of fajr.
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:22
			That's what took me so long. He's expecting
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:24
			some immediate response, but it took him
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:26
			a couple of minutes to get the response
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:28
			to the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:30
			said I was reading the 2 rakaz that
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:32
			are, before Fajr.
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:32
			And,
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:34
			Sayed Nabi'lalik
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:35
			was amazed
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:38
			and said, You Rasoolah, but it was quite
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:39
			a bit in the Fajr time.
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:44
			Meaning what? Like, shouldn't you have just come
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			out and prayed the prayed the prayer,
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:48
			out of fear of missing it or delaying
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:50
			it? Because the entire message is waiting. One
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:51
			of the things you have to understand in
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:52
			order for this to make context. Right? The
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:55
			message of the prophet isn't like IFS or,
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:57
			like, MSI or whatever. Where they have like
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:59
			a board on the thing that says when
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:01
			the prayer times are and if the imam
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:03
			is, like, 15 seconds later, everyone starts itching,
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:03
			you know?
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:07
			It's it's not like that. The actual sunnah
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:09
			is not to have a, like, a time
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:11
			board, like it's a hockey game, like it's
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:13
			a Blackhawks game. What is his actual sunnah?
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:15
			The sunnah is whoever the imam is when
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:17
			that the Adhan is called, and when the
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:19
			Adhan is called, the people come to the
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:20
			masjid, they pray these sunnah and they wait
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:21
			in their place.
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:23
			And when the imam comes out, that's when
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:24
			the salat happens.
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:28
			So it's not, I guess haram or bida
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:29
			or whatever
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:31
			to have these times as a general consensus
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:34
			so that people can efficiently turn when they
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:36
			come to the Masjid, especially given that people
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:37
			live far away and whatnot.
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:40
			But the actual sunnah is what?
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:43
			Is that the time of the salat is
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:44
			when the when the imam comes out. It's
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			not it's not the arbitrary third
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:47
			3rd time.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:50
			And so the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:51
			Wasallam him having delayed,
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:53
			means that the entire message is waiting for
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:53
			him.
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:55
			And so,
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:57
			so Sayyidina Bilal
		
00:25:58 --> 00:25:59
			when he heard that he said he was
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:02
			praying his 2 rakaas of sunnah, he said,
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:03
			Then
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:04
			he
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:06
			says that, like as if
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:09
			to understand, like I'm trying to understand, he
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:10
			said that it was but it was very
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:12
			late, like you prayed your 2 rakats, but
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:14
			it was very late. And the messenger
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:15
			said,
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:18
			if I was any later, I would have,
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:21
			I would have prayed them, anyway,
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:23
			and I would have made them even more,
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:26
			I would have perfected them more and prayed
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			them in an even more beautiful way, meaning
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:29
			I would have taken longer
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:31
			in my salat.
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:33
			And Ibni Ruslan, who was one of the
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:34
			old Muhaddithin
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:36
			and one of the,
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:39
			one of the commentators on Abu Dawood.
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:41
			He mentions
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:19
			So,
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:29
			what ibn Alan he mentions, he says the
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:30
			reason he the prophet
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:32
			made it, so that if I was even
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34
			later, I would have prayed them longer is
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			is what,
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:39
			because a person because
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:41
			imagine the time to pray those 2,
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:44
			rakaz is when the time of Fajr comes
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:45
			in, which will
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:47
			their hadith will come with regards to that,
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:48
			later.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:50
			So the prophet
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			is if to indicate that it's more befitting
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:56
			for the person who prayed them later than
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:57
			they should than than they should have been
		
00:27:57 --> 00:27:59
			prayed, that that person should be a little
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:00
			bit embarrassed and shy,
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:01
			and,
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:04
			admit in front of Allah that they didn't
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:05
			do it correctly,
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:08
			admitted that they fell short,
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:11
			in in in, delaying the prayer from its
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:12
			first time,
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:14
			and feel bad about
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:17
			being deprived of its full virtue and blessings,
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			and that such a person should give Sadaqa
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			or manumit a slave or do some other
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			good deed in order to make up for
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:28
			it. So Ibn Ruslan says that this is
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:29
			the way that the elders used to be.
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:30
			This is the way that the first generations
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			of Muslims used to be. That's how they
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:33
			used to,
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:36
			they used to approach,
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			the deen, those people whose hearts were awake.
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:39
			He says, nowadays,
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:41
			people, their their,
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			method of dealing with things is the opposite.
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:47
			He says that they they they get busy
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:50
			with the affairs of their dunya, and they
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:51
			delay their prayers
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:56
			away from the the the first time, the
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:57
			beginning time,
		
00:28:57 --> 00:29:00
			of the prayers, and they actually will delay
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:01
			them all the way until the end times.
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:03
			And then when the time is about to
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:04
			run out,
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:06
			they,
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:09
			they'll just do the obligatory parts of the
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:11
			prayer, and they'll skip the sunnahs,
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:14
			And, they'll read less than they usually read,
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:18
			had they prayed in the beginning of the
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:20
			time, and they will leave making zikr after
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:21
			afterward,
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:24
			the remembrance of Allah Ta'ala, and they will
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:24
			not,
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:27
			be at peace when they when they pray.
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:29
			And this is exactly, Bina Rasalhan says, this
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			is exactly what Allah describes as prayer over
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:31
			the munafiqas.
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:33
			That they,
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:35
			they just peck 4 pecks,
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:38
			Meaning what? There's 2 rak'ahs for such as
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:40
			us. It's like a chicken is pecking pecking
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:43
			something of the, off the floor. They just
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:46
			peck for pecks, and they don't remember Allah
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:48
			in in their prayers except for
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:50
			very little.
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:55
			So this is an insight into the how
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:57
			of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and how
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:58
			he used to approach
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			his worship.
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:12
			It was a chapter with regards to the
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:16
			sunnah of praying the 2 rakas before fajr
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:17
			likely.
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:20
			And the explanation of what should be read
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:21
			therein
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:24
			and the explanation with regards to when their
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:25
			time is.
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:13
			Between the adhan and between the from the
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:15
			prayer, from the fajr prayer.
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:18
			And it's hadith narrated both by Bukhari and
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:20
			Muslim. And in one of the two narrations,
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:22
			it's mentioned that he would pray,
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:24
			2 rakas of Fajr, meaning at the crack
		
00:31:24 --> 00:31:26
			of dawn, and he would lighten them,
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:29
			so much so to the point where I
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:29
			would wonder,
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:32
			if he even prayed the entire or he
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:35
			read read the entire in that in those
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			2 rakas. So this is the and the
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:38
			and the Maliki Madham,
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:39
			considered
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:43
			that the sunnah method of praying the 2
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:44
			rakas before
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:47
			before the prayers.
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:49
			How?
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:51
			How?
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:56
			That he would that the sunnah is to
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			pray or to only read Fatiha in them.
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:01
			Who said that?
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:04
			You're Toby?
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:05
			Malik,
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:07
			put your Toby down.
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:09
			You're Toby doesn't know about Dean.
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:12
			That was Malik's opinion.
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:14
			That is not the Hanafi opinion.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:17
			Hanafi opinion is that you should read a
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:20
			short Surah, but both of them are in
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:22
			general, in agreement that they're they're not supposed
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:22
			to be long
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:24
			long rakas. And,
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:28
			so the sunnah is not to make those
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:30
			2 rakas long. Rather say
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:33
			the is wondering, did he even complete the
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:33
			and
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:34
			the?
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:36
			It's an indication that it's short.
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:39
			And then the the the different details, you
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:41
			can learn them from a fit class.
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:45
			People ask, you know, they're like, who about
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:47
			the cafe school? What about the I don't
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:49
			know. Why don't you why don't you go
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:51
			to, like, a Lazar and ask them, you
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:52
			know,
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:54
			like, am I am I, like, Taco Bell
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:56
			that you should one person wants a bean
		
00:32:56 --> 00:32:57
			burrito and the other wants a tostada. I
		
00:32:57 --> 00:32:59
			should make everything for you and, like,
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:02
			whatever. And, you know, it's difficult for people
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:04
			to drive to Lombard, you know, from Villa
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:06
			Park or from Glendale Heights. And,
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:08
			and they then then they want, like, one
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:09
			stop shop for everything.
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:11
			I've been going, like,
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:14
			get weird heat rash in different places in
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:16
			Africa and Asia in order to find out
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:17
			some of this stuff, you know?
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:20
			Go go go go go go figure it
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:22
			out. I'm sure there there are many who
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:24
			can teach you those things.
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:27
			But but but the the the details you
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:28
			can learn from
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:30
			the point of mentioning these things in the
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:33
			context of this darsus is is not necessarily
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:35
			the fit of it, which the details may
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:37
			be a little bit up and down, between
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:39
			the different ulama. But that a person should
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:41
			strive to achieve the sunnah of the
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:44
			prophet in order to gain the anwar and
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:46
			the spiritual benefit from these things.
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			So the the the say that
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:52
			Aisha radiAllahu anha in one of the narrations
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:54
			she says, she said that he would pray
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:56
			them so lightly that I would ask myself,
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:58
			did he even finish the Fatiha?
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:00
			And in the narration of Muslim,
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:03
			that he would pray 2 rakas
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:05
			of Fajr, meaning the 2 sunnas
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:06
			of Fajr,
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			as just as you would hear the adhan,
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:12
			right after the adhan. Meaning they were in
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:13
			the beginning of the time.
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:15
			This is also another issue. This is also
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:18
			another dispute between the when should the the
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:20
			jamat happen? What's the ideal time for the
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:22
			for the for the congregational prayer of so
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:23
			the
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:25
			they say it should be in the beginning
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:26
			of in the beginning
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:28
			time or earlier in the time, I should
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:30
			say. Not like right at the beginning, but
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:33
			earlier in the time because of the
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:36
			the prophet
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:38
			he was asked about what is the best
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:40
			of deeds. He said that the prayer at
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:41
			its beginning time.
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:43
			And then the Hanafis,
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:45
			they have the the they say, no. It's
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:46
			better to delay
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:49
			it. From the benefits of delaying it later
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:51
			on is what? Is that, more people can
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52
			come.
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:54
			It's easier for more people to make it.
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:55
			And,
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:59
			that's why, like, in some places, Like, I
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:00
			remember in Turkey,
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:04
			praying fajr. And when you're done with the
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:04
			after
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:07
			the the, you actually walk out of the
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:08
			Masjid and you'd see the sun.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:11
			That's how late it's prayed. And they they,
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:13
			give us a proof for their
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:17
			position, the hadith narrated in and other books.
		
00:35:21 --> 00:35:23
			That that, delay the fajr,
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:25
			and receive more reward.
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:27
			It's more great in its reward.
		
00:35:30 --> 00:35:32
			And, the Maliki school tries to make tatbif
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:35
			between them. The fajr has a a and
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:37
			isfar. The first half of Fajr, it's, like,
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:39
			very similar to nighttime when you go outside.
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:41
			The second half of Fajr is very similar
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:42
			to daytime. You can see everything, you just
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:44
			don't see the sun. The sun hasn't risen,
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:46
			but it's more or less like daytime.
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:47
			So
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:50
			the jamat happens that you pray in the
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:52
			dark part and you should finish by the
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:52
			time it's light.
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:54
			The light starts coming out.
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			But, these are these are again differences of
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:58
			opinion. The point is is that what you
		
00:35:58 --> 00:36:00
			can follow any of these
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:02
			any of these paths, but a person should
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:04
			have their their their
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:06
			their their,
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			you know, their program together. And at any
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:09
			rate,
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:11
			the rua'i of Muslim,
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:14
			it mentions that the time that these 2
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:16
			rakas are are to be prayed is at
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:17
			the beginning.
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:18
			It's at the beginning.
		
00:36:19 --> 00:36:21
			Obviously, only someone who's awake at that time
		
00:36:21 --> 00:36:22
			will pray him at that time. And the
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:24
			person who has at the time that the
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:25
			adhan, this means that what is a sunnah
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:26
			to have
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:29
			at the time the Adhan is called, which
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:31
			is only who's the only person who would
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:32
			do that? It's the one who actually woke
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:34
			up and prayed tajjids from before.
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:18
			As the as the would give the adhan
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:19
			for the subhih prayer,
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:24
			he would, start to pray 2 light rakas,
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:26
			and it's narrated both by Bukhari and by
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:28
			Muslim. Idah here is
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:29
			is
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:32
			translated often as if, but it's more like
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:32
			when.
		
00:37:34 --> 00:37:35
			It's if, then it's conditional
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:38
			in the sense that, like, when something happens,
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:39
			then the other thing happens.
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:40
			But it's
		
00:37:40 --> 00:37:43
			that gives the impression that it's just eventuality
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:45
			it's going to happen. Whereas like low is
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:45
			something that
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:48
			may happen, may not happen, you know, in,
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			you know, it may happen, may not happen.
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:52
			So if you're talking about a hypothetical situation,
		
00:37:52 --> 00:37:55
			you'd use low. Here, it can be translated
		
00:37:55 --> 00:37:56
			as if and when interchangeably.
		
00:37:58 --> 00:38:01
			And so we read that, say, the has
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:04
			said that when the would give the adhan
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:06
			for for the fajr prayer,
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:09
			and the the Fajr prayer time would begin.
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:09
			The prophet
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:11
			would read 2 light rakas.
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:14
			And then in the narration that that Muslim
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:16
			comes with, the wording of the narration of
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:16
			Muslim,
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:19
			he said she said
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:21
			that the messenger when
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:23
			the
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:26
			when the dawn broke,
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:29
			he wouldn't pray anything other than 2
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:30
			light rak'ahs.
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:33
			Meaning what? Other than these 2 rak'ahs and
		
00:38:33 --> 00:38:34
			they're also light, there's no salat.
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:37
			There's no salat between between
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:41
			the adhan and the iqam other than them.
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			So So if you're done with them and
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:44
			you have some time, go read the Quran,
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:46
			make some dikr or something like that. Don't
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:47
			don't pray more. There's
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:50
			no blessing in them because the messenger
		
00:38:50 --> 00:38:52
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam didn't do them. To
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:53
			the point where the Fulkallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:53
			didn't do them. To the point where the
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:54
			Fulkallahu alaihi wa sallam have a difference of
		
00:38:54 --> 00:38:55
			opinion, Malik even considered if you prayed your
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:58
			2 rakahs from home that you shouldn't even
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:00
			pray the tahitul masjid, you just come and
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:02
			sit down in the masjid. And for that
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:04
			reason, I I tell people don't pray them
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:05
			at home. Pray them in the masjid because
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:08
			that way you at least pray 2 rakas
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:10
			before sitting down and don't put yourself in
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:13
			a awkward spot where it's not the sunnah
		
00:39:13 --> 00:39:15
			to pray anything other than those 2 rakas,
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:16
			it's also not the sunnah to just sit
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:18
			down without having prayed,
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:20
			without having prayed anything.
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:22
			And it's not a nor is it a
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:22
			time of for
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:24
			for either.
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:52
			Hadith both are Bukharim Muslim as well. Again,
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:53
			this is not a fiqh Darz.
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:56
			Rather, this is the the this is a
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:58
			a Darz with regards to, obviously, the other
		
00:39:58 --> 00:40:00
			things we mentioned them because there's benefit in
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:03
			them. Uh-uh, but it's a Darz with regards
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:03
			to the
		
00:40:04 --> 00:40:07
			the spiritual teachings of Islam, and spiritual teachings
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:08
			of the Messenger of Allah, the spiritual path
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:10
			of the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:11
			And fiqh is definitely
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:14
			knowing fiqh and doing things according to the
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:16
			fiqh properly is definitely a big part of
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:18
			that of that path,
		
00:40:18 --> 00:40:19
			but, it's not everything.
		
00:40:20 --> 00:40:22
			And so here we see when you
		
00:40:23 --> 00:40:24
			wonder why is it that that if it's
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			a book about the spiritual teachings of Islam,
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:27
			why is it telling us about the 2
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:29
			raka' before fajr? We already know that
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:32
			sunnah. But you learn so much about the
		
00:40:32 --> 00:40:34
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, his his orod,
		
00:40:34 --> 00:40:35
			his spiritual practices,
		
00:40:35 --> 00:40:38
			his his his his worship from this.
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:41
			So, Sayna Abdullah ibn Umar Radhi Wa Ta'ala
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:41
			Anhuma,
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:45
			who's the brother of the Hafsa Umar Mu'mineen
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:46
			Radhiallahu Anha.
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:49
			He narrates that the prophet
		
00:40:51 --> 00:40:52
			his habit of praying, the Hajj is to
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:53
			pray
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:55
			2 by 2.
		
00:40:57 --> 00:40:57
			2468.
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:01
			His his his habit was to pray Rakaz
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:02
			is 2 by 2
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:04
			until,
		
00:41:05 --> 00:41:07
			until the the,
		
00:41:07 --> 00:41:09
			the the the dawn is about to break.
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:11
			And,
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:13
			at that time, he would pray 1
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:14
			of wither.
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:18
			Obviously, it's a again, like, amongst the
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:20
			Hanafi said that the wither should be prayed
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:22
			3 in a row. That's fine.
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:23
			At any rate,
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:27
			he he
		
00:41:28 --> 00:41:30
			he would pray the wither afterward when he
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:33
			felt that the sun was the dawn was
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:34
			about to break.
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:35
			And,
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:36
			he,
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:40
			after the dawn would break,
		
00:41:40 --> 00:41:42
			he would, pray
		
00:41:42 --> 00:41:43
			2 rakas,
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:46
			before praying the the Fardh of of Fajr.
		
00:41:47 --> 00:41:49
			And those 2 rakas, when would they be
		
00:41:49 --> 00:41:50
			prayed? He says,
		
00:41:53 --> 00:41:55
			that, they would be prayed in such a
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:57
			way that as if it's as if
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:00
			the Avan was still,
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:02
			was still in his,
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:04
			was was still in his ears, meaning it
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:07
			was still being called. Meaning, right after the
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:09
			Avan ended. Hafez bin Hajr, he he his
		
00:42:09 --> 00:42:11
			opinion is that the meaning of,
		
00:42:14 --> 00:42:14
			is that,
		
00:42:15 --> 00:42:16
			here the word adhan means
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:19
			So he would he would stand up for
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:21
			it right away once the was done as
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:22
			if it was
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:23
			the was called for the prayer.
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:27
			At any rate, both of them, the functional
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:29
			meaning of it is the same, which is
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:31
			that what when the time of Fajr comes
		
00:42:31 --> 00:42:33
			in, that's the time that these 2 rakas
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:36
			should be prayed, and there's no salat,
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:37
			thereafter,
		
00:42:38 --> 00:42:38
			until,
		
00:42:40 --> 00:42:42
			until the the until the the the sun
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:44
			rises off of the horizon.
		
00:43:26 --> 00:43:28
			And so he said, Abdullah bin Abbas radiowaratalalalahu
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:31
			alaihi wa sallam, he narrates it.
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:35
			That, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:43:35 --> 00:43:35
			sallam,
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:38
			when he would pray the 2 rakas,
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:41
			before the subhah prayer,
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:43
			he would hear him
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:46
			read from Surat Al Baqarah,
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:47
			and
		
00:43:51 --> 00:43:52
			the second one,
		
00:43:55 --> 00:43:57
			and then different narration, the same hadith until,
		
00:43:57 --> 00:43:59
			he would read the ayah,
		
00:43:59 --> 00:44:01
			from Ali Imran to Allah. So
		
00:44:04 --> 00:44:06
			what's the point of this this hadith
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:08
			being brought in this Ba'ab as what is
		
00:44:08 --> 00:44:11
			to say that it's not necessary also that
		
00:44:11 --> 00:44:12
			he only read
		
00:44:13 --> 00:44:13
			the Fatiha.
		
00:44:15 --> 00:44:17
			Rather him only reading the Fatiha was what
		
00:44:17 --> 00:44:17
			what
		
00:44:18 --> 00:44:19
			said Aisha would observe.
		
00:44:20 --> 00:44:21
			Or reading so fast that she would wonder
		
00:44:21 --> 00:44:22
			if he he read the Fatihah or not,
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:24
			but sometimes he used to he would also
		
00:44:24 --> 00:44:26
			read other ayat with the with the prayer.
		
00:44:26 --> 00:44:28
			Some of the Fakaha say always, some of
		
00:44:28 --> 00:44:29
			them say whatever,
		
00:44:30 --> 00:44:32
			say say say no to someone not to
		
00:44:32 --> 00:44:34
			read, but these are options. Nobody says that
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:35
			he only did 1 or only did the
		
00:44:35 --> 00:44:36
			other. There's a preference between the bukha have
		
00:44:36 --> 00:44:37
			or one or the other.
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:21
			So the
		
00:45:23 --> 00:45:25
			said Abhureira radiallahu narrates at the Messenger of
		
00:45:25 --> 00:45:27
			Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:45:28 --> 00:45:30
			he read in the 2 rakas,
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			before Fajr,
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:33
			in the first of them,
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:36
			And,
		
00:45:37 --> 00:45:40
			Sayna Abdullahi Niyammar Radiallahu Anhuma also says that
		
00:45:40 --> 00:45:43
			I observed the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:45:43 --> 00:45:45
			for a long time, almost a month,
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:48
			that that whenever he would pray his 2
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:49
			rakal before Fajr,
		
00:45:49 --> 00:45:50
			he would
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:52
			read
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:54
			and
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:56
			And, this,
		
00:45:59 --> 00:45:59
			this is
		
00:46:00 --> 00:46:02
			a combination that's not only in the 2
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:04
			rakas before fajr. Rather, if you read the
		
00:46:04 --> 00:46:06
			hadith of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:46:06 --> 00:46:07
			the 2
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:08
			rakas of
		
00:46:09 --> 00:46:11
			of Tawaf and Hajj. This is also a
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:13
			sunnah that he used to pray at that
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:15
			time. And it's also narrated that he used
		
00:46:15 --> 00:46:17
			to read read these 2 surahs and the
		
00:46:17 --> 00:46:20
			2 rakas of before taking Iran as well.
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:22
			And there's probably more,
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:25
			more places in the sunnah maybe when you
		
00:46:25 --> 00:46:27
			take make note of it, like make a
		
00:46:27 --> 00:46:29
			like a little Kitabja, like a little
		
00:46:29 --> 00:46:31
			Rusalah of, like, all the places where where
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:32
			the prophet
		
00:46:32 --> 00:46:34
			has mentioned that he used to read these
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:34
			2
		
00:46:35 --> 00:46:36
			Suras.
		
00:46:36 --> 00:46:38
			And these are all occasions
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:40
			the thing that they have in common is
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:42
			what? They're very important occasions where there's not
		
00:46:42 --> 00:46:43
			a lot of time.
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:46
			And it's a proof that a short prayer
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:47
			doesn't need to
		
00:46:48 --> 00:46:50
			be devoid of meaning, or be after meaning,
		
00:46:50 --> 00:46:52
			or even light on meaning.
		
00:46:53 --> 00:46:53
			And
		
00:46:55 --> 00:46:55
			the is what?
		
00:46:57 --> 00:46:59
			Say, oh, people of disbelief,
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:03
			I don't worship that which you worship
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:07
			nor do you worship what I worship
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:11
			nor do I worship what you worship,
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:15
			nor do I worship what you worship.
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:17
			You have your deen, I have mine.
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:20
			I'm not interested in what you have. If
		
00:47:20 --> 00:47:22
			you're not interested in what I have, that's
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:24
			your problem. I'm not interested at all in
		
00:47:24 --> 00:47:24
			what you have.
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:26
			And this is
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:30
			this is a one of the foundations and
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:33
			the pillars of Islam. Many Muslims, unfortunately,
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:34
			they don't they seem to be
		
00:47:35 --> 00:47:36
			estranged from this understanding,
		
00:47:37 --> 00:47:39
			which is what? Islam is not doesn't teach
		
00:47:39 --> 00:47:40
			you to live in a cave. If somebody
		
00:47:40 --> 00:47:42
			else has a good idea, if they have
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:44
			a nice app on their phone, if they
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:46
			have a better way of, you know, making
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:48
			the efficiency in the catalytic converter and and,
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:50
			you know, in a car's exhaust, you know,
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:52
			better work better, whatever, it's fine.
		
00:47:54 --> 00:47:56
			Wisdom is the last property of the believer
		
00:47:56 --> 00:47:58
			wherever he finds it, he has more right
		
00:47:58 --> 00:47:58
			to it.
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:00
			Stop that.
		
00:48:00 --> 00:48:01
			However,
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:04
			however, when it comes to ideas with regards
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:05
			to deen,
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:08
			we don't we don't take advice from drunkards
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:09
			and pig eaters.
		
00:48:10 --> 00:48:12
			We don't take advice from people who, who
		
00:48:12 --> 00:48:14
			have no concern about the lineage of their
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:16
			children. We have no advice for we have
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:19
			no concern for taking advice from people who,
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:24
			you know, people who essentially worship material things.
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:25
			There's no spiritual insight that they have to
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:27
			offer us that we're gonna consider to be
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:28
			of any value.
		
00:48:29 --> 00:48:30
			This is this is from the from the
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:32
			simple teachings of the deen.
		
00:48:32 --> 00:48:33
			And,
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:34
			unfortunately
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:34
			unfortunately,
		
00:48:35 --> 00:48:38
			many people have this kind of ajeeb, like,
		
00:48:38 --> 00:48:40
			yearning for acceptance. And this surah is, like,
		
00:48:40 --> 00:48:41
			completely the opposite.
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:43
			It's like, you know what? You're not gonna
		
00:48:43 --> 00:48:44
			accept us. We're not gonna accept you. If
		
00:48:44 --> 00:48:46
			you wanna learn about our deen, we'll tell
		
00:48:46 --> 00:48:48
			you about it. Right? And, you know, we
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:49
			might, for whatever, some other reason, like, just
		
00:48:49 --> 00:48:51
			to try to understand where you're coming from,
		
00:48:51 --> 00:48:53
			we will, you know, understand something about your
		
00:48:53 --> 00:48:55
			din, but we don't see value in it.
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:57
			Doesn't mean that we don't see value in
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:59
			you as people, doesn't mean that we're gonna
		
00:48:59 --> 00:49:00
			disrespect you or be unjust with you or
		
00:49:00 --> 00:49:02
			kill you or whatever. We just don't you
		
00:49:02 --> 00:49:04
			know, who's a person is gonna tell me
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:05
			that there's 3 gods, we don't that's not
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:08
			that's not something of much value to us.
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:10
			And so this is something that the messenger
		
00:49:10 --> 00:49:12
			of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam would repeat again
		
00:49:12 --> 00:49:14
			and again. Imagine that the 2 raka'as of
		
00:49:15 --> 00:49:18
			tawaf, those are the only 2 further rak'ahs
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:19
			that are further by the consensus of the
		
00:49:19 --> 00:49:20
			ulema
		
00:49:20 --> 00:49:22
			that are not the 5 daily prayers.
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:26
			Because without those 2 rakahs, the is not
		
00:49:26 --> 00:49:26
			complete.
		
00:49:27 --> 00:49:29
			So the same the same
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:31
			of the of the itself,
		
00:49:31 --> 00:49:32
			is is the same
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:34
			for the for the 2 rakas that are
		
00:49:34 --> 00:49:37
			part of that that they're also. They're actually
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:39
			they're from the obligations of deen.
		
00:49:40 --> 00:49:41
			But, you know, you're not gonna you're not
		
00:49:41 --> 00:49:42
			gonna have a
		
00:49:43 --> 00:49:45
			is gonna get jammed. Imagine the prophet read
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:47
			Surah Surah Al Baqarah and Surah Al Imran
		
00:49:47 --> 00:49:49
			in the in those places. I mean, he
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:51
			did stuff like that in Hajj, but like
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:52
			what? Like the Miqdua,
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:54
			like in for the amount of time it
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:56
			takes to read Surat Al Baqarah, like on
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:58
			the side from the Jamarat.
		
00:49:58 --> 00:50:00
			People can congregate on the side. It's not
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:02
			gonna cause a problem because everyone does a
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:04
			stone at once anyway, and it's not a
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:06
			it's not like an enclosed area.
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:09
			Right? The prophet stood the whole time in
		
00:50:09 --> 00:50:10
			in in Alafat and he made dua the
		
00:50:10 --> 00:50:12
			whole time, but just because there's no jostling
		
00:50:12 --> 00:50:14
			or anything over there. At this point, there
		
00:50:14 --> 00:50:15
			you can't if the prophet
		
00:50:16 --> 00:50:18
			read really long Surah's, it's gonna cause, like,
		
00:50:18 --> 00:50:20
			epic traffic jam in the Haram shayef.
		
00:50:21 --> 00:50:22
			So it was a time to pray and
		
00:50:22 --> 00:50:22
			then,
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:24
			move along.
		
00:50:24 --> 00:50:26
			And so what did he choose?
		
00:50:26 --> 00:50:27
			He chose
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:29
			People should read that, they should understand it,
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:32
			they should it's inside of their heart. There's
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:33
			a lot of in it, and there's a
		
00:50:33 --> 00:50:35
			lot of clarity in it. And, people are
		
00:50:35 --> 00:50:37
			like, oh, well, that sounds really negative. It's
		
00:50:37 --> 00:50:39
			not about being negative to other people. It's
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:41
			about not gaslighting yourself, and it's about,
		
00:50:42 --> 00:50:44
			you know, keeping your sanity that that the
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:45
			din is the din and istahaq,
		
00:50:46 --> 00:50:48
			and, just remembering that.
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:52
			That someone who squawks and masquerades as having
		
00:50:52 --> 00:50:54
			the truth and somebody who who, you know,
		
00:50:54 --> 00:50:55
			tries to convince you that
		
00:50:56 --> 00:50:58
			worshiping a monkey or worshiping
		
00:50:58 --> 00:51:00
			a a a human being or whatever
		
00:51:01 --> 00:51:05
			is is a replacement for for submitting to
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:06
			the
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:08
			who created the heavens and the earth from
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:10
			nothing. This is not a really much of
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:11
			help to you or them.
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:13
			And the second is which
		
00:51:14 --> 00:51:15
			is such a beautiful,
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:17
			also such a beautiful,
		
00:51:17 --> 00:51:18
			you know,
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:20
			set of words from the Quran. All of
		
00:51:20 --> 00:51:22
			its words are beautiful, but so simple and
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:22
			so,
		
00:51:23 --> 00:51:25
			amin in its benefit, and so general in
		
00:51:25 --> 00:51:26
			its benefit.
		
00:51:26 --> 00:51:29
			Let's say that that that Allah is 1.
		
00:51:29 --> 00:51:32
			Allah, so he's he's one, meaning there's only
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:35
			one of him, not not the number one,
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			but there there's only one of him.
		
00:51:38 --> 00:51:40
			That Allah who is not who is not
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:42
			affected by time,
		
00:51:43 --> 00:51:45
			that Allah who everyone needs and is in
		
00:51:45 --> 00:51:47
			need of no one, that Allah who's not
		
00:51:47 --> 00:51:48
			affected by time or by circumstance.
		
00:51:54 --> 00:51:56
			He was neither he neither gave birth nor
		
00:51:56 --> 00:51:57
			was he born.
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:01
			And there's nobody like unto him.
		
00:52:02 --> 00:52:04
			And so this is also this is also
		
00:52:04 --> 00:52:05
			an insight to the how of the Prophet
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:08
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, and it's also part
		
00:52:08 --> 00:52:10
			of the spiritual teachings of the Rasul sallallahu
		
00:52:10 --> 00:52:11
			alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:13
			That is more than we that we get
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:14
			from this baab more than
		
00:52:15 --> 00:52:17
			just the, you know, the basic 5th. Everybody
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:18
			knew that those 2 rakas were
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:21
			were were sunnah anyway. So
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:23
			people more often than not, this is opinion
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:25
			of Malik the, you know,
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:28
			The opinion of Malik
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:29
			that
		
00:52:30 --> 00:52:31
			the middle prayer is fajr.
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:34
			Generally, the they prefer
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:37
			for their whatever whatever other reasons,
		
00:52:37 --> 00:52:39
			But Malik said that the the time of
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:41
			and the time of
		
00:52:42 --> 00:52:44
			is. So when you join prayers, you can
		
00:52:44 --> 00:52:45
			join and you can join
		
00:52:48 --> 00:52:49
			You don't join Fajr with anything. It has
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:51
			a completely separate,
		
00:52:51 --> 00:52:52
			prayer time.
		
00:52:53 --> 00:52:54
			And so from from from that point of
		
00:52:54 --> 00:52:56
			view, it makes sense. And,
		
00:52:57 --> 00:53:00
			for me also, what I've noticed is that
		
00:53:00 --> 00:53:02
			the prayer that most people waste its time
		
00:53:02 --> 00:53:03
			is is is Fajr.
		
00:53:04 --> 00:53:06
			People people when they wanna get on there,
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:08
			Dean, the last the last prayer most people
		
00:53:08 --> 00:53:11
			have hard time bringing into into schedule and
		
00:53:11 --> 00:53:13
			not missing is what? It's fajr. It's difficult
		
00:53:13 --> 00:53:14
			to wake up at that time.
		
00:53:15 --> 00:53:15
			And so,
		
00:53:16 --> 00:53:17
			the person who,
		
00:53:18 --> 00:53:19
			wakes up,
		
00:53:20 --> 00:53:21
			there are many people.
		
00:53:22 --> 00:53:23
			It's difficult for them to wake up and
		
00:53:23 --> 00:53:25
			pray those 2 rakahs. Then thereafter, if you
		
00:53:25 --> 00:53:28
			ask them to pray 2 rakahs before that,
		
00:53:28 --> 00:53:29
			that's even a greater
		
00:53:30 --> 00:53:32
			because a person at first just wants to
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:34
			pray and then crash back to sleep, make
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:34
			bare minimum,
		
00:53:35 --> 00:53:37
			pray super short fajr, and then go back
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:39
			to sleep. Whereas the sunnah is that the
		
00:53:40 --> 00:53:41
			the I mean, one of the opinions mentioned
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:44
			of the in the in even the
		
00:53:44 --> 00:53:46
			the commentary we're reading that I didn't mention
		
00:53:46 --> 00:53:48
			from before is one of the hikmas of
		
00:53:48 --> 00:53:49
			the 2 rakas of
		
00:53:50 --> 00:53:53
			of of fajr before fajr being light is
		
00:53:53 --> 00:53:54
			that it makes more time for the
		
00:53:55 --> 00:53:57
			which is the longest of of the 5
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:59
			daily prayers. If you pray it according to
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:01
			sunnah, it's the longest of the 5 daily
		
00:54:01 --> 00:54:02
			prayers. And the reason is 2 rakas is
		
00:54:02 --> 00:54:04
			because it's the one in which the most
		
00:54:04 --> 00:54:05
			Quran is recited.
		
00:54:07 --> 00:54:10
			So the idea is that that that these
		
00:54:10 --> 00:54:12
			2 rakas, they kind of you know, the
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:13
			hadith of the prophet
		
00:54:14 --> 00:54:15
			that there are 3 knots tied over the
		
00:54:15 --> 00:54:16
			person when they're sleeping,
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:19
			and the first one is untied when a
		
00:54:19 --> 00:54:21
			person mentions the name of Allah to Allah,
		
00:54:21 --> 00:54:22
			and the second one is untied when a
		
00:54:22 --> 00:54:23
			person makes,
		
00:54:24 --> 00:54:26
			and the third one is untied when a
		
00:54:26 --> 00:54:27
			person prays.
		
00:54:28 --> 00:54:30
			This means what? It prepares the person so
		
00:54:30 --> 00:54:33
			that their for the salat is not not
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:34
			wasted in in, like, just waking up from
		
00:54:34 --> 00:54:35
			slumber.
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:37
			Rather, it can be prayed with its its
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:39
			due dignity and it's with its in its
		
00:54:39 --> 00:54:42
			in its, Masoon and its its Sunnah way.
		
00:54:44 --> 00:54:47
			All of us tawfiq. Allahu'ala accept it from
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:47
			all of us.
