The Colorado Muslims Council discusses the importance of following the church's lead on Islam, rather than the one-size-fits-all approach. They stress the importance of reciting Surah Al Fatiha in each unit of Islam and the School of Thought. The discussion also touches on the confusion surrounding the religious practices of the waif and the evidence of the Prophet reciting the holy holy holy holy holy holy holy holy.

Anam Mohammed and Abu who were a Zulu mighty respected brothers and sisters in Islam as Salam Alikum
warahmatu Allahi wa barakato I welcome you once again to Colorado Muslims Council. Yes, Lu NACA,
they ask you
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:56
			a program where we receive your questions through our email.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:07
			Phil Council, SEO for [email protected]. And we answer these questions and I have to let you know
that
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			we have almost 50 pending questions.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:19
			I travel a lot and probably from the background you can tell that
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			I try my best to
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:36
			answer these questions. But Mashallah, there is a lot of demand Alhamdulillah we will strive to
answer each one of these questions inshallah.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:47
			We received a question from our own schreib dilwara, meaning our local Brother, brother schreib.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			He's asking the regarding this question,
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			reciting
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			Surah Al Fatiha
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:01
			in the Salah, behind the Imam
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:12
			Let me begin answering this question by saying Subhana Allah, one of the benefits of living in the
West
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16
			in the United States and Europe
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			is striving to follow
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:25
			the delille the evidence.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:36
			Normally if you live in a country where only the men have been exercised and practiced,
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:43
			meaning the people follow a certain madhhab school of thought
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:49
			you do not see or a question normally what you're doing
		
00:02:51 --> 00:03:29
			or question what others are doing because everybody is doing the same thing. And if you look at the
Muslim world and brief, the brothers who came from India and Pakistan they normally follow the
school of thought of Lima Abu hanifa Rahim Allah, the brothers who came from the Arabia, the
peninsula, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait. They follow the school of thought of Lima Ahmed no humble
Rahim Allah, the brothers who came from Syria, Egypt and philosophy and they normally follow the
school of thought of Imam Shafi Rahim Allah, the brothers who come from
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:32
			West Africa,
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:49
			Morocco and Algeria and Libya. They don't really follow the school of thought of Lima Malik Rahim
Allah. So if you live in, in these places, you know, you you just adopt the inherited
		
00:03:50 --> 00:04:05
			practice and you don't question it. Nor you question anyone else who around you. But now when when
we travel, and we get to live in the United States, and you find yourself in a machine with
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:16
			these nationalities and these men that are praying together, and then you start questioning what
you're doing or questioning what other people are doing.
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:49
			And consequently, you now strive to look for the evidence for the delille what the prophet
sallallahu wasallam said regarding the opinion and in no way we're asking you to abandon the method.
No, actually the method, the school of thought becomes the guiding light to understand the evidence
of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And in this context, I want to say something brothers and
sisters in Islam and I always say that in my talks and lectures,
		
00:04:50 --> 00:05:00
			a sign that the organization or this message is successful, that when you enter the masjid, you see
every national
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:53
			knology every language, every ethnic goal is presented not in multitudes, not in a huge number. But
when you look around you, you will find a Pakistani you will find an Indian, you will find an
Egyptian, you will find an Arabian, you will find the Syrian, you will find a Moroccan you will find
an Algerian you will find an African you will find and so, then he is all nationalities are
presented. And I always say this a sign that the organization that religious organization which is
the machine is not successful or their approach is not the proper approach. Whether it is the Imam
or whether it is the organization itself represented in the body of Trustees or directors that you
		
00:05:53 --> 00:06:24
			walk into that facility and you'll only see one color, one language, one ethnic group, because that
is not Islam. Islam is an umbrella with a lot of people can fit right under that umbrella brothers
and sisters in Islam. With this inshallah I will try to answer the question of brother, shall I and
I will try to be very brief.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:33
			First of all, first of all, consensus that the Imam
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:44
			the Imam is the person who's leading the Salah must recite Surah Al Fatiha himself in every Raka of
the Salah.
		
00:06:45 --> 00:07:05
			There is no question about this because the reciting Al Fatiha is a pillar of the Salah, the Imam
are talking about the Imam without the Salah is loud, meaning Jheri, meaning he recites loudly and
that can happen in the Torah cause of
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:28
			the first two records in the method. And the first two records of Elijah are silent, meaning salatu
salam laughs all of it, the third Raka insalata the Maghreb and the last two insalata Elijah, he
must recycle that email. So this is number one. Number two, if you pray by yourself,
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:43
			if you pray individually, you must recite surah to refer to her in each unit in each or aka whether
the Salah is loud or sick or silent, like the EMF.
		
00:07:45 --> 00:08:19
			There is no disagreement or different opinions regarding those two. Now, once it comes to you being
led in the Salah, allow me to use the term being imagined in the Salah. What should you do? We have
two extremes and extremes in a good sense. The first one is the new scholars of the school of
thought of enamel sheffy had their fair share for a
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:21
			chef a
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:28
			chef and I don't mean in a bad way. Meaning the
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:58
			there is codename chef a the the old school of thoughts of Lima chef a and the new school of thought
of MMA sheffey the new school of thought of enamel chef a they say you must recite Al Fatiha if you
are being led in the Salah whether the Salah is loud or silent in each unit, whether the Imam gives
you a chance to recite or not.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:01
			And that's an extreme
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:35
			and we'll explain that why they base this on the Hadith regarding the fact that surah will Fatiha is
a pillar of the Salah. We have multiple Hadith that says that whoever does not recite Surah Al
Fatiha in each unit of his Salah in each Raka of his Salah his Salah is not accepted. So this is a
one extreme. But the jurists responded to this opinion with one analogy,
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			which is what
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:59
			if someone joins the Salah in the ruku imagine somebody who joined the salad and he arrived when the
Imam is seeking Allahu Akbar to bow down to make the Roku and he catches the Roku with the Imam. The
question here
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			Will that person will he have
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:14
			to repeat that unit? Will he quote the Salah in the record the answer is no, that unit is actually
valid.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:27
			So, that means the Salah can be valid naraka the unit can be valid without you reciting in fact her
in it. That's one answer. One
		
00:10:30 --> 00:11:07
			one extreme like I say, the other extreme is the School of protofilament Abu hanifa which is what
you don't have to recite through Apple Fatiha if you are letting the Salah whether the Salah is
loud, meaning fetches the Torah cause Maverick, the first to have will Margaret and the first to
Felicia, or would have the Salah si silent meaning salatu salam Colossus, the third calf and mother,
the last two records of Elijah, you don't have to decide. So in fact, and again this is another
extreme.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:13
			Now, the issue here that we have is
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:30
			the Imams who do not follow the school of thought of mm sheffey Rahim Allah, they do not allow those
who pray behind them. Time to read Surah Al Fatiha
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:43
			immediately as soon as they finish reciting Surah Fatiha they immediately engage in the recitation
of the Quran.
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:56
			And now we know that the Rasul Allah Azza wa sallam commanded us that when the Imam reads, then he
listened to him.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:32
			Well, either Cora Al emammal, for unsettle a Muslim when the Imam recites for earning the Salah
lessons and the verse most probably a lot of the scholars of the Sierra mentioned that this verse
was revealed regarding the Salah was either a pre alpha an alpha semi Ola who were an suku la la
quinta hammoud when the Koran is being recited, listen to it tentatively, tentatively with
submission with a hearing with a hearing, so that you may attain the mercy of Allah.
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:46
			So, now, how in the world will you be able to fulfill this command when the email does not give you
time to recital Al Fatiha
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:55
			after he finishes reciting the Fatiha and he immediately engages in the recitation of the Quran, the
surah.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:02
			But here comes another question which is theoretical question. Syria.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:17
			Does the Imam have an evidence for initiating the care of the sutra immediately after finishing
reciting Surah Al Fatiha in the Salah? Absolutely.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:49
			So are the one that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam when he used to recite in the Salah, he
would pause he would stay silent in two occasions. one occasion after that we are utterly from after
he says Allahu Akbar to enter into the Salah. The first step VIERA in the Salah, and we know what he
would say them, meaning he would make dua
		
00:13:51 --> 00:14:11
			that you are that you make at the beginning of the Salah silently and the second sector. The second
silence moment of silence is after he finishes reciting the Quran in order to make a break or to the
separate the Quran from Allah
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:17
			before the Ricoh so that you didn't assume that Allahu Akbar is part of the Quran.
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:55
			So here is an evidence that arasu sallallahu alayhi wasallam never given a Purim pause or time for
you to recite the Quran recite Al Fatiha after he finishes his own recitation, there is an evidence
for it. Now brothers and sisters in Islam here is the correct view regarding the person who's being
harmed without going into a lot of details because we'd like to limit this to 1516 minutes video
insha Allah
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			if the Salah is loud, meaningfully
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:27
			The first two hours of filming the first two workers of Malaysia and the Imam is now a chef, meaning
he does not allow you time after he finished reciting Surah Al Fatiha and he immediately engages in
reciting the Quran. His recitation is sufficient for you. You do not have to recite Al Fatiha by
yourself in the loud Salah.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:35
			What is the evidence? What I mentioned the verse Sai Halima Muslim.
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			Hadith
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:56
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the majority that Imam Ali Timothy he the Imam is there
to be a mammy to lead you in the Salah when he says Allahu Akbar, say Allahu Akbar after him what
either para refer to and if he recites then listen, don't recite
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02
			to Mr. tirmidhi when they say he will be the root.
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:19
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was reciting the Quran and one of his companions behind him
was reciting and Fatiha while he was reciting the Koran after the Fatiha after he finished the
Salah. He looked, one of you was reciting what I was reciting.
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:45
			The companion said yes, your Rasul Allah, he said, don't do this because you were competing with me.
I thought somebody was competing with me when I recite pas don't don't listen to me. How do you fish
