So last week, we
read the first hadith and the last hadith
under
the new chapter,
which is about my own woman doing it.
What should a person say
who is invited to a feast, food?
But, fortunately, somebody decided to follow him.
And that sacristan is not invited by
by the Sahib al Walid.
So when you reach the house of that
person,
what should you
tell the host?
Read.
He said,
I remember a time when
a man amongst the companions of the Prophet
salallahu alaihi wa sallam invited him to
the food that he he made for him.
He made food
specifically for Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
And he invited
together with the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
4 more people. And
he was so that's meant
altogether with the prophet, salallahu alayhi wa sallam,
5 people he invited.
But the food was made for the prophet
But
he increased the quantity
and he invited other people also to come
and join.
To
the prophetess of Allah sama went to the
house.
And then when he was going a man
amongst the companions of the prophetess of Allah
sama decided to go with him.
The prophet
did not tell him, no,
you are not invited.
Yeah. Did not tell him, no, you're not
invited. So he went with the prophecy of
Allahu alaihi wasalam.
However, when they reached the house,
the prophecy of Allahu alaihi wasalam has said,
so and so and so person that you
see with us. He followed us.
I know the permission and the invitation is
for me and for those for, but this
one join us.
He says if you wish,
you can let him go. If not,
he should go back.
Yeah, because it is what
made
for him.
So the prophet
told him it's up to you as a
host to let him come in or
to ask him to to go back.
So Allah is very good sunnah because sometimes
the person makes a food
which is only enough for
for a few people.
And in the time of the prophet
he can make dua, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
can increase the quantity
of the food like what happened in the
time of the Gaza
2 al khandaq,
where around 1,000 or 1,005
people. They were there with the prophet salallahu
alayhi wa sallam.
And
they ate that food which jab had made
for only 2 3 people with the prophet
salallahu alaihi wa sallam.
Had a bibaraka to doubt in the visa
lies. Kasarasul asallahu made du'a and Allah increased
the baraka
was enough for everyone.
However in our time it is not like
that Allah can do it but what we
know is that this is happening with the
prophet sallallahu alaihi salam alun.
So it is good when a person is
invited to a feast
and somebody followed him,
you know, you should tell that person in
our in our time also is much easier,
right? Because you can call him and tell
him so and so and so person is
willing to follow me. Would you like to
let him come? If he says yes, then
alhamdulillah for me only. If
he says no, that person shouldn't get annoyed.
He should accept
the declining of that person and go back
and not to follow them
and not to follow, not to follow
them. So
the prophet
told the man he says this person followed
us. If you wish we can let him
come in. If not,
then he should he should go back.
So this is the reason why
Imam and Nawawi brought this hadith under this
chapter. What would you say to the person
who invited you to a feast but somebody?
Somebody followed.
Somebody followed and you should
tell him that this person followed me
and it's up to you to let him
in if you say no, then he will
he will be going back.
This is a new chapter
that will talk about
eating,
you know, encouragement of the Sharia
that everyone should eat from that which is
next to him.
By eating food,
it should stop
with that which is in front of you.
Don't go and eat from the middle or
in front of others.
And also,
the Prophet
used
that opportunity
to remind
somebody
upon the virtues
and of etiquette of eating, how to eat.
And also, it teaches us,
you know, the importance of giving terbia
to the younger ones.
Not to wait for them until they reach
the old age and then we start commanding
them. That will be very difficult for them
to to handle.
So as salah sallallahu
alaihi
When they reach 10 years and they don't
pray, rasulullah sama said you can beat them
after that.
SubhanAllah, kadaman haj and nebuwee
of Rabani.
Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi salamah asked you to start
teaching them on how to pray and also
command them to pray when they reach 7
years. How many prayers we have between 7
years
and 10 between 7 to 10 years?
A lot of prayers, right? More than 1,000
prayers, Subhanallah by then he become
familiar with the prayer.
In the future will be very easy for
him to listen to the commands.
And trust me if you start doing it,
insha Allah, you will not need to beat
your child.
Because he will be doing it automatically, you
know.
1,000 prayers is not little, you know. The
first one is lazy second one is lazy
and don't fight the kids when you tell
them to pray. Don't fight.
You know, don't beat. Don't do anything.
Just keep recommending
and you can start
actually, you know introducing them to the prayer
even before the age of 7.
But you're supposed to command him the command
should start
is is a is a wajeem upon you
to command.
When your child reach 7 years, you must
command him to pray.
You must command him to pray. Yeah, you
command him to pray. If you don't you
get sick.
But you have to command him because as
soon as salah asked you to to command.
So you can see the prophet salallahu alaihi
wasalam recommended that which is that given the
terbiyyah from the from the younger age. Not
to wait for them to reach
a big
age, you know, maturity. And then we start
commanding them. It will be very difficult for
them to to comply.
The prophetess of Allah also,
there was a time he saw a younger
boy eating,
but he is not eating properly.
The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasalam educated him
and he reminded him and he advised him
to eat properly.
And this is Umar ibn Abi Salama,
young
boy at that time. You know, but now
he's narrated the hadith, you know, become mature.
And he was young when that happened.
He narrated that hadith that the prophet salawasulullah
was once reminded him to do the right
thing when he was ill.
It's a very good message to us because
nowadays we have big negligence. If If somebody
sees you,
you know commanding your child to do the
right thing, training your children to behave well.
Some people found it very strange. Why?
Let them have the freedom to do whatever
they want.
So he's familiar with the wrongdoing
and then after a few years, I'm gonna
tell him this is wrong, this is right.
But the question that will be going around
his brain is, why did he let me
do it and for ages?
He never told me this is wrong.
And subhanAllah, you might not live with him.
Yeah, you put him into trouble because it
is not easy for him to be convinced
by others.
You, if you tell him, he will listen.
But if others are to tell him,
he might not listen.
So
I was a young boy. You remember, umu
Salam. Right?
When she married to the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam, she lost her husband Abu Salamah.
And she remembered the saying of the prophet
that if you lost
