So, inshallah, today we try to
complete this hadith of, Yahya in
Zakaria,
and we move on to the next,
issue, insha'Allah.
And last time we reached a place where
the prophet
said, Ihab Nuzakariyah
told his people,
So
I command you to to pray to Allah
because when you start praying
Allah
Allah is fixing or putting a space towards
the face of the
the musali
and we said this is one of
the hadith of Sifaat of Allah
that we keep them in the way they
they reach us.
Crossing and walking in front of the Musali
is really bad because Allah is in front
of him and somebody is
separating between between them. So
said if you know how much sin you
get when you walk in front of a
Musali, you prefer to stay for 40.
40 years, 40 days. Even if it is
40 hours, it's more than enough.
Yeah. It's better for you than
doing it and to get that sin
written in your account.
He said
and the prophet
said therefore whenever you pray to Allah do
not do
Iltifat is defined as Ibn Uqay mentioned into
2 types, right? Iltifatul
Kalb.
Iltifat
al Basar.
And, somebody who is
turning his eyes
against the qiblah.
You know, rights,
left, up, you know.
Is it halal to look up when you
pray?
Looking up in their prayers, they should be
careful or else their eyes will
not come back to them.
The eyes will not come back.
Come back. I come back to them.
So it's haram for a person to look
up.
Yeah looking at the side is wrong.
It's ikhtilas the prophet
said * theft that shaitan is using to
take from from your reward.
When you pray, you shouldn't look at the
sides.
The next one he said, I command you
to fast.
He said I command you after the prayer
to to fast.
What is fasting?
If you fail, we will never have fasting
class
Is he right? Yes. Yes. Right?
I did not. Ah, now he fixed it.
Right?
And and Hammad and the rest says, yes.
Yes. He is right.
Right? But now he picks it.
To worship Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala by
staying away from,
eating and drinking and having sexual relationship with
the spouse from the rising of the dawn
until
sunset.
That's fasting. The word
has to be mentioned to make it different
from
culture
or something that somebody is doing for health.
You know, you are on a diet you
don't want to eat today.
Yeah. If we look at your attitude, you
are fasting.
Right? According to the language, you are fasting.
But Sharon,
are you fasting? No. You're not.
The doctor tells somebody that we are going
to cut you
for the surgery. And as such, usually you
cannot eat. Right? They give you a time.
They say from this time and sometimes
the whole day you cannot eat. Yeah.
So the person did not intend to fast.
Does he get reward of not eating and
drinking?
No, he doesn't.
But can he make intention to fast?
Yes.
Nobody should come and say, but this intention
is deficient. He's only doing it because of
the operation. No. We're not Raul Abu Allebir.
We ask him, make intention to fast. If
he's sincerely doing it for the sake of
Allah's mother, it's okay.
Why do we say it's okay? Because Rasulullah
came
to,
I mean, he went into the house and
he asked his wife, do we have food
at home? She said,
no.
He said, okay, then I'm fasting.
When this, when did he intend to fast?
When they told him there is no food,
right? Yeah. So I would, I if a
person is not intending to fast, but the
doctor told him that we cannot do the
operation unless if you stay away from eating.
And he said, okay, then I will fast.
Rather than just wasting reward, then he just
fast.
Is that okay? Yes, it's okay.
So fasting is to stay away from eating
and drinking and having sexual relationship from the
rising of the dawn until until sunset. So
he he told them
I command you to fast for the sake
of Allah
and then he told them how important is
fasting.
And this is one of the most important
righteous deeds.
Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
When he breaks his fast, he will be
happy. When he meets Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
he will be happy with his fast.
And Rasulullah
told somebody to fast. He said,
he said he should fast because I couldn't
see something
similar to fasting.
And
surah sallallahu alaihiwasallamah
said in the hadith of Kursi,
he says,
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says, except fasting. Everything
you do is for you
except fasting. Fasting is for me, Allah says.
He said, I will be the one who
will reward,
reward the one who is doing it.
In another narration
He says because he stays away from his
food
and drinks
and his sexual desire
for my sake, Allah
That's why this caller said,
the exit of a money
breaks the fast.
However, if it is due to a sexual
relationship, it necessitate kafaros.
Not only breaking the fat, it necessitates kafar.
It's the only thing that necessitates kafaros.
How about the exit of the madi, not
money? The initial
excitement that a person get
which caused that madhi, the water, the clear
water comes out of him. Does that also
amount to
nullifying the fast?
Are you sure? No? Everyone says no.
Many scholars said it goes with your fast.
When you fast and the madi comes to,
comes out, then the fast also is is
gone.
However the correct opinion is the one that
says no that is only applicable on the
money not the mavi.
But if a person,
let's say he kissed his wife and then
the mavi comes out,
the fast is not gone.
But
the value the value is it still there
or the value reduced? It reduced. They use
this hadith to support that because he says
And, which means she is just trying to
tell a person to be to be very
careful. Right?
Yeah. Not every halal a person should be
taking it for for granted. Right? Mhmm. You
also, as a student of knowledge, be very
careful when giving fatwa like that. You have
to be very careful because you go and
give somebody fatwa,
tomorrow you should get ready with the next
fatwa also.
When he goes beyond the limit, then you
have to also provide another fatwa. And you're
going to tell him, Ittaqillah.
But you're the one who opened the door
for him.
Yeah. So halal remains halal but you tell
a person be be very careful. If you
go beyond the limit, Allah might hold you
responsible of that. So he told them fast.
Yeah. Yeah. I will invite each and every
one of us. Please not to make your
fast Ramadan.
There are some people when ramadan finish,
then Jhumpa Lagi.
Meaning until the next ramadan.
Yeah.
They will tell Ramadan like this, right? We
will see you next year. Hello? Next year.
Right?
So
Don't do that. It's not good.
Yeah Fast at least Monday Thursday if that's
possible. In sha Allah, it will be possible.
If not, just take one of these days
and fast
according to your ability. It's very dangerous for
you to go back to Allah with no
sunnah
fast. If you have deficiency in the wajib
fasting, how do you fix it?
And do you have deficiency in your wazhi
fast? A lot. All of us are like
that. So you need something which has the
same nature to fix your wazhi.
I really advise and fasting is good.
It makes your brain sharp.
You think smartly.
Yeah. You think smartly because when you are
full, this is the beginning of thoughts
and dumbness also sometimes. You know, you don't
think
that wisely. When you fast, you think
smartly. And also you get health. Apart from
the reward, you you're getting from Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
Okay. So he says,
I command you to fast for the sake
of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
because the likeness of the one who fasts
for the sake of Allah
is just like a person who has a
bag of or container of perfume.
We don't mist, right?
Some of the misk is taken from?
Gazal. Right? Adia.
You know, very ajeef, you know, Allah.
That blood of the gazal, that type of
gazal
would turn. You know, that is a process
being made. You know, Famine one day was
explaining the process, the way they make it.
And then, after a few days, that blood
will fall down. That surlah, that small bag
they tied on the skin of that animal,
which collected the blood, it will fall down
and it turned into perfume.
Yeah.
He
said the the likeness of the person who
is fasting is just like a person who
has a bag of perfume.
Collection of perfume. Protein of
perfume. He says, and he's in a group
of people.
Each one of them is enjoying the nice
smell of that one.
When you fast sometimes,
your mouth
smell. Right? And
He says
The bad frag, I mean,
smell
of the mouth of a fasting
person
is more pleasant. Okay. Remember this.
Is more pleasant in the eyes of Allah,
subhanahu wa ta'ala, than
the fragrance of al misk.
Majority of the scholars said, based on this,
it is wrong for you is makru, dislike
for you to do suwak
when?
Bad as zawal. No. They don't say about
wild fasting. They say we can do it
in the morning, but after the zawalish
shams,
then
we do we're not supposed to do zawak.
Why?
Because they say
And
usually, this bad smell start to emerge after
after dul time, during the the the afternoon
time.
They said if you do suwat, you are
removing this. And Allah
says,
rasulullah
said
however, we have the minority who said no.
Is
sunnah in all circumstances
Even for the fasting person after the zawah.
Even for somebody who is fasting after the
zawah.
Siwaq is good for him. It's sunnah for
him.
What happened? They don't see this hadith?
They saw it. But what they say is
that, even Al Qayim says,
Rasoulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Salam never said Allah.
Allahu means
taste.
Yeah. He said more pleasant.
Allahu love this smell
Because it is coming from a fasting person.
It is not something Allah enjoys.
You get it? So they said since it
is not something that Allah
enjoys, you know,
that means he wants it to happen because
he wants it.
No. It is something that when it happens
because of the fast, Allah
loves it because it is happening because of
the fast.
That's why Ibn Qayim says,
this is a wrong deduction by those scholars.
Allah says,
He did not use another word,
You know,
that
we can use to say that Allah is
interested in seeing it taking
taking place. But he says,
meaning
it is more pleasant in the eyes of
Allah than the fragrance of the misk.
And also,
they mentioned, Ibn Khayim says,
actually, this
smell that is coming
when you fast,
it is the result of
the empty stomach that you have. The stomach
naturally, when it is empty,
produces bad smell.
When you eat something, then the smell doesn't
come.
When it is empty, that smell comes. So
he says that
the smell is coming from the stomach,
not from the mouth. That's why in some
circumstances, you use Siwaq. But still,
when you speak,
the smell comes back. But just now, you're
using the Siwaq.
How come in the in the moment, in
the days when you were not fasting, you
use the brush or you do the Siwaak?
You don't smell. But now, when you're fasting,
you do the Siwaq when you're praying. But
then later on, you're talking to somebody, the
smell comes back again. It's because the source
of that smell actually is the stomach.
And let's see if we're going to introduce
a new Siwak also that goes inside.
Anyway, so Siwak for the siam is recommended
in all circumstances.
Even after the Zawah.
You get it? Even after the Zawah. Because
it doesn't prevent that smell.
And having that smell in fasting is not
an objective.
But it is just something that cannot be
avoided.
Right? Cannot be avoided.
If it could be avoided, Raul Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam will avoid it. If it is something
that is an objective, Raul Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
will tell us, okay, fast. Make sure you
smell when you fast.
But he never did that. He does suwak
also when he fasted.
So we learn from this that suwak is
applicable in all circumstances.
K.
Allah
commanded me to do suwak until the time
I started having the fear of destroying my
gums.
That's why when he gets into the house,
the first thing is suwak.
When he wakes up, seawak. When he is
praying, seawak. And he says, if it is
not, you know,
difficult, going to be difficult for my ummah,
I will make it mandatory
upon anyone who wants to pray to do
suwaq before before the the prayer or before
the wudu. And the last thing he did
was
Siwa also.
So it has a lot of benefits,
Siwa. It has I don't sell Siwa, so
I'm not promoting the Siwa company, but it
has a lot of benefit.
Yeah. Those of you who study with us,
Martin Avi Shuja
in the masjid,
we talk about some of these benefits.
About 10 of them he mentioned,
including those who you might not believe.
Yeah. He said it takes away sleep.
It helps you to be awake.
Yeah. And that's true.
Just believe in men, Inshallah, it will
Yeah. It strengthens the gum. It removes the
bacterias.
It does what the
what is that one? The brush
doesn't do.
But don't modify.
Okay. Sometimes we put the fluoride,
Yeah. We put the the toothpaste on the
Siwak.
We combine between dunya
and
He says
And I command you
to do the sadaqa. So as I said,
please,
you know, develop this culture between you and
yourself.
Don't just fast Ramadan and wait for the
next one. Fast forward.
And those,
unique days, you know, that we fast like
Arafa, Ashura, don't miss those ones, you know.
What excuse do I have to miss those
ones?
Get it? And if you are so
strong, you know,
smart in earning reward, then Monday Thursday.
If you are a bit stronger, add the
white days also. So every month you will
be fasting around 12 days.
That's good. Khayr
obaraka.
You get it? That's Hayr O'Barakah.
But at least as I said,
fast the 3 white days every month.
Yeah.
If you can choose between the Monday Thursday
and the 3 white days, choose
the Monday Thursday.
Yeah. Choose the Monday Thursday because it's more
more than 3. Because if you fast every
Monday Thursday,
you're going to fast around 8 days right?
Yeah, 8 days. That's better than 3 days
for sure.
Okay so,
he says
and I command you to
to give charity.
Okay. To give charity.
He says, I command you to to give
charity.
He said, because the example of the person
who is giving
charity,
it's just like a person who was captured
by the enemies.
And this enemy is very harsh.
They tighten his
hand to the neck. They connect him to
the neck and tighten so much.
And
they put him forward
to cut off his neck.
They're gonna kill him. The man told them,
please, I have money. I have things, please.
Can I pay ransom to free myself?
So he kept an offering. I give you
my house. I give you my car. I
give you my wealth. I give you this.
You know, until the time they he reached
a moment where they agree
to to accept whatever he offers them, and
they release him.
Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said,
this is how
charity is freeing you from
from Masai calamities.
You know, who knows? Many times the last
one can protect you because of the charity
you're giving.
You know, moment that you're supposed to get
into trouble but because of that charity, the
last one will always give you.
A lot. We just don't pay attention to
our life. That's why we don't see it.
Yes, we give charity for the sake of
Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. It's a means to
increase your wealth,
you know, to make it more. And at
the same time also, you come closer to
Allah
and that little amount you give, Allah will
take care of it until
the day of judgement. So you are not
losing at all. You are increasing your wealth.
Get it? And don't forget.
If you put happiness in the
in the face, in the heart of somebody,
Allah promised to grant you ease and make
you happy when you meet him.
Which one is more noble?
Of course.
The second one.
Right? So share share share share.
Don't take everything and give. This one is
also wrong. That's why moderation is in in
fact, is is necessary.
We have to be moderate when we
when we spend.
Allah says
Allah
says:
Allah says:
Allah wants to talk about the good ones.
These are the ones that whenever they spend,
they don't go beyond the limit. They don't
exaggerate.
Go to extravagant. And
also they don't,
I mean become stingy.
They don't give insufficient amounts. They give
enough, but no exaggeration.
They always moderate. Allah
which
is
a he said
our wealth is all charity for the sake
of Allah because
he was the one that led us to
to stay behind when the prophet
was going to the battle of Tabuk.
So they said, You Rasulah, we give
our wealth completely.
Allah said,
no.
Take some part of their wealth.
That's why it is part of the manhaj
of Rasool Allah SWALLAM. When somebody gave him
something,
amongst the companions, he asked them, what did
you leave
for your family? Right?
Omar and the rest of the companions, he's
the one who talked, but the rest also
for sure, they were
having the same thought. How come Abu Bakr
is always the best?
Yeah. Because this man is, is really amazing.
You also, if you are there, you might
not
think of competing.
Yeah. Because how do you compete with somebody?
Rasool
came to the Masjid and said to them,
Al Asfaha
who was fasting today?
He says, Anayar Rasool Allah. And he was
alone in the Masjid who was fasting.
Who gave charity? Anayar Rasool Allah.
Who visited a sick person? Anayar Rasool Allah.
Only one person is talking in the Basid
and who,
accompany the janaza, pray for the janaza, Anayar
Rasoolallah.
And then the prophet
said, majtamaanafimriinillatkallahujan.
Don't forget, this is Fajr prayer.
It's the beginning of his day.
And if you are to ask him duhr
time,
What did you do? Only Allah knows if
this is just the introduction of the day.
Yeah. So this is Abu Bakr radiAllahu.
And, SubhanAllah, the scholars said
actually, he did not beat the companions because
of this.
Yeah. If you go to the companions, there
are people who are doing more than Abu
Bakr.
Abdullah ibn Amun doesn't sleep at night. I
woke up sleep.
Abdullah ibn Amun doesn't sleep.
He prayed every night.
And he fasts every day.
Yeah. And then the scholar said,
Abu Bakr never supersede the companions
because of him praying more than them in
prayers,
because of him fasting more than them, giving
charity more than them. Uthman is he gives
more than Abu Bakr, you know.
But
the scholar said he superseded the rest of
the companions. Not the rest of the companions,
the Ummah of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
You know that this man, they mentioned that
if you are to weigh his iman
and the iman of the rest of the
nation, the companion, not companion, the Ummah.
His iman will be bigger than us, than
ours.
SubhanAllah.
Why? Because that iman is unique.
Yeah. Nobody can claim that his iman is
aiming towards that one.
That would be a joke.
So he
says,
He superseded
the companions
because of something that is firmly established
in his heart, which is the iman or
Sadhakathul
Ahmad.
And he puts that faith into translation.
You know, he acts upon it. It. Not
just believing. No. He acts upon it. You
know.
Almost everyone was in doubt.
Everyone was annoyed.
Abu Bakr was not annoyed.
Can you imagine that during the
so Hudaybiyah, right? Even Umar
who was very annoyed, he went to the
Prophet
and talked in that way. He regretted afterwards.
But SubhanAllah, when he went to Abu Bakr,
Abu Bakr told him exactly the same reply
of Rasoolullah
SubhanAllah.
Makkah, right? To run away,
to make hijra, to go and practice his
religion. This is before the hijra. So Ibn
Dukunna asked him, where you going? He said,
I'm going to go somewhere else. To do
what? He said to worship Allah because you
guys don't want to let us relax in
this place.
He said no.
If it's he said,
He says somebody like you cannot be taken
out. And then he said, what?
The same thing Khadija was telling the prophet
SAW. He also told Raul SAW the same
thing.
SubhanAllah. Friends since childhood and the same behavior,
the same attitudes. Right?
Confirming
the fact that you really choose.
You should choose good ones.
Yeah. You can see Rasool As Sala al
Salam Abu Bakr
was not there
and he was telling Umar the same thing
exactly. As if they met and they agree.
If Omar comes, please tell him this. But
they did not.
He told him, my dear brother, he said,
means
stick to the full steps of Rasulullah Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam. And Omar said
he regretted
of that, you know, thing he said to
the Prophet
So that's Abu Bakr. Abu Bakr, he wasn't
he went to the Prophet
He told him, 'Rasulullah, this is a command
from Allah?' He said, 'Yes.' He said, 'That's
it.'
When Rasulullah
said, 'I went to Isra wal Mi'raj and
I went to the
what is the name of the place? Bayt
al Maqdis.
They've been mentioned in some part of the
history that,
when he told her that he went to
this place, she told him, 'Mohammed,
did you inform somebody? Oh, I'm the first
person you told this.
She's he said, you are the first one.
She said, please don't share this with anyone.
They'll make fun of you.
And exactly this is what happened. He shared
with people and people and he told them
about
Israa.
And they made fun of him. They laugh.
They
laugh. They're inviting each other to come and
hear and and listen to what Rasool Allah
say. What do you think if he is
to tell them about Mi'raj?
And he said I went to Baytul Maqdis.
They were laughing.
They think he is Majnoon, Auzubillah.
What if he tell them he went to
the heaven?
Number 7, not number 1, you know. At
that time, even if he says he went
to outer space,
it's more than enough for him to be
rejected by the community. But then Abubakar, when
they told him they rushed Abubakar because they
want to break the heart of Abubakar
because they never believed that there is somebody
who can accept this. When they told Abu
Bakr,
they told him,
did you hear what your friend said? So
what did he say? He
said this and that. He asked them, wait
a minute.
Are you sure you heard him saying it?
They say yes. They were so happy. Now
the book is gonna change it. Right? Are
you sure he said it? Say yes.
You're not lying. You heard him. Yeah. We
heard him saying this. He says, Sadah.
He spoke the truth.
They said, how can you believe in this?
He said, yes.
Because the man is telling me that an
angel is coming to him with a wahi.
And I accept this. Anything I will not
accept? To me, this is very simple actually.
If I am to trust that one, I
will trust this.
And they said he went to the prophet
and he said, Rasool Allah, this this guy
says yesterday you said he went to Bethel
Maqdis.
Is it true? You said this? He said,
yes.
I'll Sadaq.
So that's why the iman of Abu Bakr,
nobody can compete with him.
Omar tried to
to beat Abu Bakr in charity.
Rasulullah Salazar whenever somebody give something,
he will ask him, where did you leave
for your family?
I live I live for them this amount.
He said, okay. Alhamdulillah. Allah put barakah in
your mouth.
Omar came. He said, this time a booker
has to learn a lesson. He shouldn't be
the only one who is coming for a
salah. So he came. Rasulullah
asked,
what did you leave for your family, Umar?
He says, half of my world. Only.
Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, oh, barakallahu alakafi
malik.
He was waiting for Abu Bakr. He's like
challenging him to just come and say like
this,
Abu Bakr came. And Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
asked him, Yeah Abu Bakr, what did you
leave for your family?
He says, talk to
Allahu Arasulu. He says, Assulullah, I left for
them Allah and his messenger, nothing in my
house.
Yeah. From that time, Omar says,
no more competition with this man. There is
no fighting. Yeah. Because who can do this?
Islamically, actually, is wrong. You need to take
everything you have and give it to to
others. And tomorrow what are you going to
do?
You remain
as a person who is begging others
or people are showing mercy to you. That's
why the smart decision in giving charity is
to to start with your family first.
Until they are satisfied,
then you take the balance to others. It's
wrong for you to take the charity and
give it to somebody when there is somebody
in the family member who is in need
of
You have Zakah.
Your brother needs money, he's poor. Who is
the best person to take Zakah? Your brother.
Your uncle need money. Who is the best
person to take your zakah?
Your uncle.
Zainab,
the wife of Abdullahi Mas'ud,
she was having a debate with Abdullah Masud.
She wanted to give her zakat and Abdullah
Masud said, We deserve it.
Yeah, so she said I have to ask
the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. The wife, can
she give zakat to the husband?
Yes. Can Can husband gives the car to
the wife? No.
Because it's his responsibility
to feed the wife.
But she
she can give zakat to him because it
is not obligated upon her to feed him.
She can give her zakat to the to
the wife. Is it good to do that?
To the husband. Is it good to do
that? Yes. It is.
Actually, it's the best to do. That's why
when Zaynab went to the prophet
to to ask
whether what Abdullah ibn Mas'ud,
was saying is correct or wrong.
So she went and she said, Assalamu alaikum,
the prophet was inside the room.
He said, who is speaking?
Wa Alaikum Assalam. Who is speaking? She said,
Zainab.
He said, I use Zaynab.
Which Zainab? Because in his house alone, he
has 3.
Zainab been to Khuzaima, his wife. Zainab been
to Josh, if she's still alive at that
time. Zainab been to Josh.
Also. And he asked his daughter also Zainab
if she's still alive at that time. So
he asked her most likely in Medina, we
have a couple of Zainab
even there. Very good names. So he asked,
I use Zainab. Which Zainab?
She said Zainab, the wife of Abdullah of
Masood.
That's why in salam, when you say salam,
and you are asked by the owner of
the house, who are you?
Usually we say what?
Me,
Anna, right?
Somebody says Anna. Rasulullah SAW, someone said Anna?
Anna? What do you mean Anna?
His name
is?
Zamaqshari
was the worst one in the introduction. They
said when he went to the house and
he knocked on your door and you ask
him, who is that? He will mention his
name is incomplete.
And he will say, Azamaqshari
al Mu'at Hazili.
He will add that one. You're not even
asking about his Saqeedah. What do you add?
Al Mu'at Hazili.
To be more clear.
So,
Zaynab, the wife of Abdullah Masood, she asked
she said You Rasoolah, I'm here to ask,
this question.
I wanted to give my charity. But then
Abdullah Masood said he deserved it more than
anybody else.
So the prophetess of Allahu Soma said yes,
he was right. He deserved it more than
anybody else.
That's why if she has a zakan, the
husband, Mizkini, is struggling to live.
And she said, you are responsible to feed
me. You have to go and look for
it.
Is she right?
No, she's not.
Yeah.
Yeah. Because the one who deserved has zakah.
We're talking about zakah.
Yeah. The one who deserved that Zakah was
the one who is next to her.
You have somebody who is extremely poor.
Right?
And he wants he needs money to survive.
Then you take your zakar to another person
in another
state.
And there is somebody your neighbor is struggling
to
live.
Your Zakar is
we don't say it's baatil,
but you do not do the correct thing
in Islamically.
You take Zakat out of your locality
when there is a need bigger than the
need in the place where you live in.
You live in the place on Unas Maysuri
Alhat.
You know, yeah. Although you don't call him
a rich person, but things are okay with
him.
He's not suffering.
Yeah. He lives in a very good country
as a rich person.
Then you have in some other places, people
are suffering. People are dying.
Or some places they are affected by calamity,
the flood or something.
Where's
the best place for you to take the
zakah? That place.
If there is nobody who is providing
for them. So what I want you to
understand is your charity, the first person who
deserve it is your family members.
If they qualify.
Right? As long as they are not your
children, they are not your parent and they
are not your
your your spouse. You cannot give to your
wife.
The wife can give to the to the
husband.
You cannot give to your children because it's
wazim upon you too
to feed them. Can you give to your
sister?
Yes.
But then if somebody comes to you
and asks you
a question, can I give zakar to my
sister?
Tell him,
shame on you.
He's going to smack you somehow. But
You
know why I'm saying this?
Because how come your sister needs a car
and you are rich?
You are rich and your sister is in
need of money? Wallahi, this is really a
shameful thing. But we do. We do. We
do have people like that. His sister need
to go and take zakah from others. You
Allah. Shame over a family
where their sister, you know, has to go
and takes the car from from others. Even
their brothers,
although they have ability to go and earn
for themselves, but if you let your brother
you know he's poor and he has to
tell you, Support me in life. Definitely, shame
on this person. But Islamically, can you give
him the zakah? Yes. But at the first
place, what he should do is to provide
for them whatever you can do. Make them
live a comfortable life. Not a life of
a rich person, but okay life.
When the Zakar time come, you give them
also the charity. No problem. But you're providing
for them. They are not in a state
of necessity or need.
Is that clear?
Yeah. So it is halal for
a person to give zakatu
to a family members. As I said, the
most deserving one is the one who is
who is next to you. That's why in
the hadith, the professor, somebody told the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam, You Rasulullah, I have one
deenah.
He said what? Spend it on on yourself.
He said I have another one. He said
spend it on your wife. He said, I
have another one. He said, spend it on
on your children. He said, I have another
one. He said, spend it on your maid.
He said, I have another one, Ir Rasulullah.
He said,
Do whatever you want with
me. Yeah. You might say this is childish.
Why can't he just tell the Prophet
I have 5 dinah? Right? But alhamdulillah, he
made it in this way because we learn
priority, right? Oda priority. Who comes first?
If you happen
to favour some people, who do we start
with?
Getting from that, at least the scholars learn
a lot. So back to the charity. Charity
should
be moderate. It should be moderate when you
are when you are given the charity.
So
the Prophet
said, you should engage in giving charity because
and the prophet
said, your example when you give the charity
is just like a person who is captured
by the enemies and he managed to free
and ransom himself.
And I command you to remember
Allah to do
the
of Allah.
So he says this is the last one
mentioned by Yehayb al Zakariyah.
He says and I command you to remember
Allah's mountain, to do the zikr.
Zikr of Allah means
those
adkardah, the prophet Soma
taught us to do. La ilaha illallah subhanAllahu
hamdu li'l. You know, any wicki that you
are told to do by the Prophet Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam.
I command you to do the rikirullah.
And then he said the example of somebody
who remembers Allah
in comparison to the one who is not
remembering
is just like somebody
who is chased by
the enemy, very strong enemy.
And he was running and the enemy was
chasing him
until the time he find strong force fortress.
Hissen. A strong fortress And get inside.
And at the same and because of that,
the enemy were not able to come inside
and get him.
So he was protected.
That's why the prophet said,
the most protected moment you have is the
moment when you are remembering Allah, subhanahu wa
ta'ala, shaitan cannot come closer to you.
Shaitan cannot come
closer, closer to you.
So, Surah Sallallahu also said,
the example of the person who is remembering
Allah
in comparison to the one who doesn't do
it is just like a dead and a
living
living one.
Yes, nobody wants to be in trouble with
shaitan
And the best way for you to stay
away from shaitan is to remember Allah
Right? In the morning, if I if you
say
Shaytan cannot come closer to you until the
evening. If you say it in the evening
also the same thing until the morning. If
you say La Ira illallah. 1
100 times,
You
get 100 rewards.
You get
100 sins to be removed from your account.
You get
the reward of freeing
around
10 slaves.
And the prophet
said you will be protected from shaitan
the whole day.
Yeah. And even in also if you say
the same thing until the morning
and on the day of judgment,
nobody will be coming back to Allah
with something similar to yours except somebody who
does the same thing or more.
How many times we forgot this,
if we even do?
Yeah. So that's our protection. You shouldn't forget
this every morning. It takes from you how
many minutes?
3, 4, 5 minutes, you know, you are
done. If you say it calmly, nicely,
you are done. And you get all of
these privileges.
And at the same time also you'll be
protected from sheifa. When you go out of
your house and you say
you said
And shaitan
will not come
to that place. Even if they come, they
cannot see you. Rasulullah Sallallahu
You want Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to block
their eyes the way they will not see
you. You mention this dua. Shayateen will not
will not see.
I remember whether it is true or not,
I was there when somebody was doing rukuya
to
a sister who was possessed by the djinn.
Very funny moment, you know. He was giving
a lecture and then somebody was smart. And
this is a very famous
person in doing the rukwaiya. Somebody
was smart.
And it's so funny. When they when he
was talking to the to the jinn, he
was the sister.
He said he he raised up his hand
to smack. He said, please, please don't don't
don't don't hit me. He said, why?
He said, because you smacked my sister last
time, and she's still sick.
Yeah. Whether it's true or not, but I
was I was there listening to all of
these, things, you know, that Ashfa habil cartoon.
And then and then, so what are you
doing here? Go out. She said, no.
We're not doing anything. I just bring my
kids to play.
So his body is just like Maidan, football.
So last,
I mentioned that these these people cannot be
cannot be trusted.
Cannot be trusted.
So,
he said there was a time when he
asked one of them
when somebody
somebody mentioned the name of Allah
and goes into the bathroom, that dua, what
happens to you?
Wallahuwalaam. I don't know whether they're lying or
they're saying the truth. We don't care about
what they said. Rasool Allah said they will
be
blinded. They cannot see you.
But that jinn also is confirming.
He says usually, either we will be chased
out of
the bathroom
or we cannot see him. He's there, but
we don't see at all.
Yeah. And this is, subhanAllah, how righteousness and
victory is protecting a person. I remember listening
to lecture done by one
of the revert magicians.
And he's somebody who repented from magic. He
used to be a magician. Now he is
not. So he was saying sometimes when we
send the
top shout in, because
the small one cannot do the job. So
we send the big ones.
He said sometimes they come to us. He
was giving a lecture.
He said sometimes they come to us. They
will tell us that
we have searched about this person in the
heavens and the earth. We couldn't find him.
And he said sometimes they tell us
that we
can hear his voice talking,
but we don't see him.
We hear him talking, but we don't see
him. Subhanallah.
In Aliyah. He used to be there. He
said, this is what we experience when sometimes
when they come to tell us we cannot
find this person.
They say we can hear his voice but
we cannot see.
So, whether
these things are facts or not,
exactly what is mentioned in these stories is
correct. Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has said,
the dhikr of Allah's Mu'twati protects a person
from sheytal,
you Allah. They cannot touch.
That's why if you go out to your
house and you lock the door at night
and you say Bismillah.
Can shaytan open it?
All of the shaitin of the dunya, all
of them, they cannot open it if you
mention Bismillah.
That's how the vehicle is protecting
you and your house as long as
you are not inviting them.
Because
if you have images,
angels that are supposed to protect you cannot
come to the house.
Yeah? Then shaitan will say
Yeah, you are residing in an atrocity, you're
supposed to get the protection right, but you
have a lot of images at home.
Angels cannot be in that place.
Yeah? So then
you will be having nightmares.
Yeah, that translates sometimes how come
you read
the adequacy and you made wudu, but you
still see madamass?
Check the house and see. Maybe there is
something
wrong,
which is inviting those
until you wake up.
Therefore I really advise you not to ignore
these things. Yeah.
And also have Udu all the time,
The person who takes care of udhu is
a momin, is a sign of faith in
iman.
So this is the last thing YAHWEH nazakariyah
told them. And then the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
wasallam, said,
And I'm also going to command you with
5 things. And Insha'Allah,
in the next dares I will talk about
these 5 things.
Okay. Sorry for making you interested and then
destroying your happiness.
May Allah grant us good and patience and
ability to see the next, class and more
classes.
Any question?
First question is by
sister.
I think, this question is already answered. Does
Rasool Allah break his word and true fast
all the time? Yes.
Then
Next question, sir.
Alhamdulillah. It looks like we answer all the
questions. Yeah.
Okay, sir. First question is,
the the is this the right hadith?
The professor said, Allah wonders at these people
who will
enter paradise in chains.
Allah what?
Allah wonders at those people who will enter
paradise in chains.
So Yeah. What I know is that there
is a hadith that says there are some
people who are going to go to Jannah
with Salasih,
Yeah.
In chain.
What does it mean?
Karim,
go and pray. He doesn't wanna pray. And
I'm his older brother.
I told him, you have to go to
the masjid,
or I'm his father.
I told him, Karim, you must go to
the
Masjid. And he went to the Masjid because
I force him.
Not because he wants to go. He went
because I force him. However, when he reaches
the Masjid,
he prayed for the sake of Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
Not for me.
Salaam.
Please. Okay.
Thank you.
So he went to the Masjid and prayed,
but for the sake of Allah. Although I'm
the one who forced him, but he was
doing it for Allah, not for me.
Is he going to be rewarded?
Yes. Yes.
Yeah. Because he does it for Allah
So it's like I'm taking him to Jannah
with
Salaseh by force and forcing him to go
and choose jannah.
That's okay. As long as he does it
for Allah
it doesn't affect
the validity of the action.
Next
question.
How do we understand the phrase?
How?
Be the sun of the day be the
sun of your day that you explained in
the last class? That's why I talk about
that last be the sun of your day.
How should we view on goal setting, long
term, and short term goals?
Long term? Long term and short term goals.
Goal setting. Goal setting. Ah, you mean in
view of this? Yeah. No. It doesn't affect
it doesn't affect that one.
K. I have a goal. I want to
achieve something. I want to become something in
my life.
Am I sure that I'm going to reach
that?
Does it make sense if I worry so
much if depressed, it it caused me stress?
Yeah. Because I want to achieve something in
the future, but now I'm so stressed. You
know?
I'm depressed because
I want to achieve something.
It doesn't make sense. So
I focus on my day. I fixed my
activities on today,
which will help me to achieve a better
future.
Do you get it? If I'm today depressed,
I'm not going to be productive
and that will affect the goals I'm having
in in the future.
I want insha Allah,
by
the year.
I mean, who's who wants me to give
him the example?
Mazi. Mazi. Yeah.
He wants by the year 2025,
he wants to become the richest person on
earth.
Good
good,
goal. Right?
But then
so worried about not being able to to
achieve that because
days are passing very quickly.
What will happen after that?
He will not be able to be productive.
He will be doing things in the wrong
way because of a Russian.
And at the end of the day, 2025
will come.
Most likely, he lost, actually, some of the
money he has, you know?
So that's why,
this statement of Abdul Rahman al Sadiq is
really accurate and excellent.
Kun ibn Yaomik.
Always try to be the sun of your
day.
Meaning focus on your day. Make it a
very productive day.
Do a lot. And this will help you
to be
somebody in the future, better than what you're
expecting to be.
Again, so I have goals. I want to
achieve this
in 10 years. I want to achieve this
in 100 years to come. You know,
Is that possible? Yes. You should do like
that also. Insha'Allah, we won by
the year 20
70.
Get it?
Insha'Allah, the community is like this. Yeah. That's
good.
So we work in the present time, doing
the correct thing
so that the future people who will come
will enjoy it.
But we don't worry about the future because
we are not sure whether we see it
or not
And worry about me not being able to
do the right thing right now.
You get it? So it doesn't contradict having
short term and long term goals. You should
have those ones. You shouldn't take life as
well.
I mean, randomly. Just live a random life.
No. A Muslim shouldn't do that.
You know?
Next question is by.
Is it possible for jinn to leave
physical things? My friend says she keeps finding
cups of urine and bones in her house,
and hair comes out of her building. Yeah.
It's possible.
That's the one.
Possible.
There are a lot of a lot of
facts when people see things are moving in
the in the house. Mhmm. That's possible.
Is it because
they are not remembering Allah much? Yeah. Is
it because they are not remembering Allah? It
could be one of the reasons is that.
And that is, that is a natural reason.
Natural reason, we call it Adar al Mascuna.
You bought a house, but it's already occupied
by the gin. They believe this is their
own territory.
You miss skinny, you come in and you
bought the house. You don't know.
They believe this is their house.
Then you face lots of problems in the
house.
You see things in the house Because they
believe they deserve to live because this is
their own territory. For ages
they were there. Then you just come now.
Why are you in the place?
That's why they said you
are permitted by the Sharia to decline the
transaction. Even if you finalize, do you agree?
Yeah. Because how do you survive, you and
your family members in the place where gins
are also living?
You get it? Yeah. And sometimes also it
is not because of that. It is us
bringing them.
Yeah. My house is full of other things
which are inviting them. Of course they will
come.
Like the example I gave you last time,
the the brother who was telling me that
he suffers from these evil things in his
house,
you know.
And I told him, How is your room?
He said, They have a lot of pictures
in that place. I said, Remove them. He
said, He can't.
What should I tell him? And he said,
subhanallah, there was a time he just finished
praying. And then suddenly he saw a dark
thing in front of him, just like that.
He said, when I say, 'awzubillahu
kalima zikirullah' He said, it moves and goes
and enters a picture
and hangs on the wall.
And it disappears like that. He will laugh.
He said, I still remember that. I saw
the thing with my own eyes. And when
I remember, I said, a vikir. It runs
and hides behind a picture and disappears. It's
like this.
I said, you see? That means you are
bringing the house to them. When it got
scared of you, you ran to that place.
So remove it. He said he can't because
some of them doesn't belong to him. Leave
the house. He cannot leave the house so
stay.
What's shayati?
So sometimes we invite them ourselves.
Yeah. Because they are everywhere. The only thing
is that they don't see us. We see
I'm sorry. We don't see them, but they
see us.
And it's good for us to have the
system like this.
They see us, we don't see them. As
a Muslim, we are supposed to relax. Just
do the dhikr and don't think about them.
They're living their life, you're living your life.
They don't come physically usually to fight a
person. No.
This is against the system, against the rules.
They can whisper. They can harm. They can
even kill. This one could be possible, but
it doesn't
happen rarely.
Yeah. But you do things which might put
a person into trouble for ages. Yes,
Sheikh, in my country,
what what what happens is the,
the the old generation or people who haven't
maybe studied tawhid,
they will be harmed by the gins.
Really? The gins in the house. Okay. As
you have mentioned as you have mentioned. So
what they'll do is they'll cook food.
They'll cook cook food. Uh-huh. And every year
they will place it. And then the so
the gin can come and eat. So the
gin will not harm them. That's the that's
the peaceful reconciliation.
Right?
Is it Sheikh Sheikh?
No. Are they saying something or just giving
them food? They're just giving them food. Oh,
giving gin food. What's wrong with that? No.
They said, like, if they don't give food
every year They'll come on home. Their genes
won't come on. No. They don't they shouldn't
depend on that, saying that they have to
do it for them to stay away from
the harm.
No. That might affect the taqun
and the al Qaeda.
Giving food to help the jinn.
Yeah. That's why we should guide them towards
that which Rasool Allah SWAMI said. Do dhikr.
In sha Allah, they will leave the place.
The good one might stay in the house,
but they will never harm you, and they
will not come out
for you to see them.
If you see them out in your house,
that's by mistake.
And they will not come again. They will
learn their mistakes.
And even once, you have a way to
get them out of the house.
Sheikh,
another question.
Sheikh, another question about Nahu.
Sheikh,
was Nufu Alaan? I've heard that it's actually
Mongwa with the surf,
like Ramadan Sha'aban,
but then Sultan,
Quran, and,
Ridwan
is actually you can say Ridwan and Ridwanin.
But Ram Ramadan, no. Ramadan, no. It's not,
it's not Munsarif.
So what's the about it of Anwar bin
Nasaf? The above it is to go back
to the books
of Nahu.
To get those
Kawa'id
mentioned by them, when does the word become
mamnoaminasaf?
You get it?
Whatever doesn't qualify
the wahabit, then
it will
be the other category.
Or else, if, let's say, you see all
the wahabit mentioned by the nuhat,
You see it on a word and still,
monsalif. You know, it's not mumu minasar.
It might be samai.
They heard it from the Arabs like that.
And they keep it in the way. Or
there is another justification given by the nuhat.
Inshallah.
That should be taught in the class of
Yes, sir. Let's go to the question by
Ings.
Question by.
A young boy who is 20 years
convert converted to Islam and married my second
cousin, who is 18 years, in Australia.
He is an Australian, and my cousin is
half white as her dad is Australian and
her mother is Malaysian. They are settled in
Australia.
My question is that there are no conversion
documents. Is it necessary to get and keep
these
documents or certificate of conversion and to change
his name to a Muslim name?
I I don't understand. What is what is
the problem? Somebody I heard that somebody married,
and he is half white, half black, half
blue.
In Australia.
And then Uh-huh. Islam, and then they married
the parishioners
Uh-huh. And then this person He accepted Islam.
A person living in Australia accepted Islam and
married his sister. Mhmm. And then this person,
No. It's good to have because some
in some places, they question a person.
What is the evidence to a Muslim?
It's good to have those documents.
Although it doesn't make anything in Islam, he
remains as a Muslim. Whether he has documents
he doesn't have, he remains a Muslim.
But it's good to have. What about the
name?
The name is not necessary to change as
long as it gives good meaning.
It's not wazhi upon the person who converted
to Islam to change his name. If the
name he has is good, it's okay. But
if the name he has, you know, shows
somebody who is
affiliated to another religion, then he should change
the name.
Christ.
Christophar.
When you hear this, you see? Kirsten, right?
Then we ask him, please change to another
name.
You get it? Yeah, but documentation
is good to have it, but it doesn't
change the reality
in Islam.
I remember we went for Umrah one day
without mentioning a name because you might know
that person. So we went for Omar.
Subhanallah. When we went to the Saudi embassy
to get the visa, from there, we started
having problem
with one of the students.
Yeah. Because he doesn't have a Muslim name.
The embassy says we have to see him.
They have doubt. How come?
Yeah.
And,
so we managed to resolve that problem.
We went to the KLAI
to the counter. The sister on the counter,
she said,
going to Mecca? I said, yes. She said,
no. I don't I don't trust.
I have to see him. You know?
When we reached Saudi also, the immigration there
also, how come?
So we told him, please add Muhammad to
your
name.
Suwala. That's the reason why he changed it
to some names.
Right? Yeah. So it's good to have documents
because if he has that document, we just
pass it to the embassy. There will be
no question.
But because we don't have any document,
that's where they have doubt. Yeah.
That's all. Have some questions. They They might
have a prophet a prophetic name. Name of
the prophets, like Joshua,
Ezekiel,
Isaiah, Leo. Yeah. We it's we we ask
him to make it use of It's harq.
Yeah. Yeah. We tell him your name actually
in Arabic means is harq.
It's changed.
Because if you keep this one, your brothers
from the Muslims, when they hear the name,
they will think you are still Christian. Christian.
And you give them the same name.
Yeah.
Finish? Alhamdulillah.
How many times I say Okay. No problem.
I said. Right? Just now we talk about.
Excuse me.
Let's say a person is fasting,
and then he chooses to buy food and
order that the food is served,
and he can't go pray. No? Because he
has to finish what his, the food will
be served.
Yeah. Then, he knows that if he eats
first,
he's he's probably gonna miss, the jama'ah.
So
is he assuming for making that jama'ah? He
eating? And which imam is that? Farani or
what is he eating that he will not
eat quickly and finish the whole meal? So
it'll take 10 minutes to Why did he
he ordered the food? And he missed the
prayer because he's waiting for the food?
No. No. But, so he has a choice
of either ordering food Uh-huh. Or he just
waits in the masjid?
He has to wait in the masjid. Unless
if he's too hungry. He knows that now
he doesn't think properly.
He sees Ramadani as,
Fazar. You
know? Yeah. And he sees you he's
he calls you some other names. I tell
him,
order your food and eat first, and then
come to the Masjid.
This one is like a drunk person.
However, if it is a normal hunger,
he can control it. He stay and pray
first, and then go and order the food.
Or place the order and then go and
pray.
You get it? But when the food is
ready, he eats first and then go on.
Even if the prayer begins.
However, he should try and make it real
quick. Yeah. Usually, when he eats with his
wife, for instance,
they talk.
After every spoon, she tell him 10 stories,
and he tell her one story. Anyway, sister
will smack me. So so so she talk,
he talks. You know, the food that can
take only 5 minute, they can take 1
hour eat.
And he
I don't know what to say to them,
but it's okay. Right?
But now
he is
cancelling the Jama'ah. Right? Because of food. Right?
Can he observe the same manner or he
shouldn't?
Just focus on the eating. When she talk,
he tell her, I'm supposed to go to
the Masjid. Save your words. When I come
back, I can listen to all the stories.
And he also he he shouldn't engage. His
time around, just eat moderately.
Why do I say moderately? Because he might
be so fast in the way he harm
himself health wise.
He shouldn't do it. But just eat calmly
and what he needs and then go to
the Muslim and pray with the people.
So if the imam is not that fast,
Insha'Allah, he will catch
the salah.
Finish?
