A
Alhamdulillah, we have been afforded the opportunity to work
Through Al muhtasar Al Latif Bafa is the short abridgment. We now
come on to lesson number 11, and in this particular lesson we are
going to be dealing with impure substances, if my memory serves me
correctly, we have started with the definition and the listing
last week, and in this lesson, we continue with the listing of
impure substances, and thereafter we will deal with the phenomenon
of a how to purify certain impure substances, be it nila subahanu wa
taala. So the first thing we're going to be looking at in terms of
our continuation of that list will be the following, well may Tatu
Washa aruha, waishuha wa jilduha wa jamiro azizaiha,
the author says, well, Mai Tatu and the word maita, clearly, the
root letters are either me Miata or me mwauta moat, referring to
death, While maita tu refers to a dead animal, what we refer to in
English as carrion. While may Tatu, a person, discovers a dead
animal along the roadside, that particular dead animal, that dead
carcass, walmetatu, Washa aruha, we now looking into the parts of
that dead animal. Washaruha. It's here waishuha, in the instance
that you find a dead bird along the roadside, waishua, its
feathers. Wajiduha, the skin, the hide in its current state. Wajami,
or a desire here the word Jami refers to all Adze is the plural
of the word Jews, which refers to a part, wa jamiu
and all of its parts are considered to be impure. Well,
made it to a sharu Ha, or issue ha wa Jill, duha wa jamiro, Adze ya
and all of its parts. The proof, the proof for the following, would
be the statement of ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala that reads as follows,
horima taala kumulatatu and has been made impermissible upon you.
Almeitatu karian, from the Shafi perspective, we tie that into the
impure status of that dead animal and ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala knows,
knows, knows best. Now the author assist us in terms of giving a
definition. We provide a translation for the term Mater. We
translate it as carrion. That doesn't, by necessity, define the
concept what is a matter? What do we define it as? And in this
particular regard, the.
Explanatory notes helps us as greatly. It reads as follows, waia
Leti, zalit hayatua, carrion is referred to such an animal. Zali
hayatua, its life has been snuffed out. Zalit hayatua, its life has
come to an end. However, be ready the karatin, but it's life was not
terminated in a valid Shari manner, and ALLAH SubhanA knows
best. What is the ruling? So now we understand technically what
Karin refers to and what is the ruling. The ruling is clear from
the text, but we repeat it again. Fay energy, Satun bijamiya, it is
considered to be impure bijani, with all of its parts in its
current state, and Allah knows knows best. We go on to the next
chapter with Nila bahanu, or the next part of the text. Rather, it
reads well mad you. Well with you.
We had briefly spoken before about liquids, excreta, if you wanted
liquids that come out of the body, there are number of liquids we had
mentioned, three or four. We had spoken about urine. We had spoken
about sperm. We'd spoken about Mavi pre *, fluid while
What do you and another type of liquid which we will look at now,
be it nidas. So we're looking at this issue from a different
perspective. Now we're not looking at the perspective. What does it
necessitate? Does it necessitate a purificatory bath? Or does it
necessitate?
Woohoo. We're not looking at that particular aspect, we are
investigating whether it is considered to be pure or whether
it is considered to be impure. In other words,
so the listing goes on and the listing is listing it as impure.
Why? Nicola, Ali hin, karamala, wajah, because of the statement of
Ali May Allah in obalin, he says, kuntu rajulan Madan, I was a
person that would experience a lot of this type secretion, this pre
* fluid. I was busy or Kun tu astahi and Asad rasulallah,
because of the nature of this liquid. It's a pre *
fluid. So I was very shy to ask the Prophet sallallahu about it.
Why Lima county beneti, because of the position of his daughter with
me. I was married to his daughter, so now I would be asking my father
in law relating to something
of a very sensitive nature relating to conjugal relationship.
So I was shy to ask the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wa, so what did
I do? That didn't stop me from asking. I devised the plan. What
did I do for Amato Alma as what I appointed me as what falu, and
didn't make that even as what asked on my behalf for color while
soon you will sell the car. Oh, yes.
He should wash his private part, wait a WABA, and then he should
perform Hulu. So there we have the dual rulings, the pre *
fluid, it's excretion, so it's now on the private organ. What needs
to happen? It must be washed, because it is impure. Number two,
what does it necessitate? It necessitates a wudu, as opposed to
a a Hus and Allah's best. Like I said previously, we spoke about
different liquids coming out of the body, and I listed four now,
urine, sperm, pre * fluid. And what we will look at in
terms of our body, let's just have a quick refresher in terms of what
we had discussed already, in terms of other liquids that come from
the body. We looked at ALMA view, and we look at Al wadu, almayu, as
I mentioned earlier on, we have it translated as pre *
fluid. Again, that is a translation. And certain times the
translations are telling of the concept. Other times it is not
that telling. We want to understand what exactly is this
pre * fluid. It reads as follows, well, now, who will Maul
Abu ratik? It's a liquid. Al abiyel, it is white in color. A
RAC it is thin, as opposed to sperm that is generally thick and
coagulated to a certain degree. Well, now will Abu ratik, it is
white. It is thin, a lazy and it is somewhat sticky, Alhaji and the
Shah and it ejaculates. It comes out. Bila shawating, at the time
when a person experiences a sexual sensation. Akram akumula,
bilashawatin, without any desire. Wala to the fucking, and it
doesn't come out spurting wala ya kubuhu al futur, and it is not
followed by a state of language. So that distinguishes this type of
fluid from *, because * would come out with a sensation,
sexual sensation, Akram akum, and it comes out in.
Spurting form, as Allah subhanahu says, No luqu and mean MA in death
from a liquid that that spurts forth. So let's just read through
that explanation again. Well, naul abiy, it refers to a whitish
liquid that is thin, it is sticky. It comes out at the time. So pre
* fluid, it comes out just before the advent of *,
and it comes out belasha Hurting without a desire, and it doesn't
come out in a spurting in a bursting form. And Allah SWT knows
knows best. So it's an unlasthful discharge of thin, sticky, white
fluid, if you wanted to wrap it up in terms of the English language,
so maybe in terms of our current conversation. In terms of our
current context, it is considered to be impure and it needs to be
washed. On the other hand, we have another liquid referred to Asmaa
UL ABI of the Sahin al khalib. Here we have water or other
liquid, hualmaul abio, which is a whitish in fluid alkali, a thick,
cloudy white fluid, man liquid, Abu whitish. It is thickish
alcadil. It's not white, but off white, and it translated as a
cloudy white. So it's a thick, cloudy white fluid that exits
after urinating or carrying something heavy. A person picks up
something heavy. And as a result of that, as a consequence of that,
there's an emission of a certain type liquid. That type liquid,
when it meets these qualities, are considered to be Wadi. What is the
status quo of Wadi? It is impure. And Allah subhana knows, knows
best. The ruling of both of these fluids is impure. Necessitates who
wudu and not hustle. As you can clearly see from the slides, which
is a rework of the explanatory notes in Allah knows those best.
The next issue which we are looking at, we still listing the
forms of Nigeria said, what we have now would be what money?
You'll tell the wealth, hindi money.
We had discussed money in a sense of a human being. What is the
status quo of sperm in relation to a human being? We are talking now
about money. You will cull, that's an EVA construction money. You
will kill the sperm of a dog while he and a a pig. What are the
different permutations that we can have sperm of anything born from a
dog and a pig. So you have a dog and you have a puppy, and then you
have a pig and you have a piglet, anything born from a dog and pure
animal. So you have a dog and you have another animal altogether, or
you have a pig and you have another animal altogether, which
is considered to be pure, any of these permutations, the sperm that
comes out from the would be considered as impure in the first
block that I have. Anything born from a dog and pig could be dog
and dog. It could also be dog and a pig in that particular cross
breed manner. And Allah knows who's best. So the sperm of a dog
and a pig and whatever comes from those permutations, permutations
are considered to be are considered to be impure. On the
other hand, the sperm of human beings and all other animals is
considered to be pure, and ALLAH SubhanA knows was best. We
continue with our list. Waleben
We're now looking at the next item. The next item is walaban.
Laban refers to milk, the milk of Ma, that which LA is not edible.
In other words, is not consumed, is not eaten. Walaban and the milk
of that which is not consumed. Now our author gives an example. He
says Cal Atan, like a a female donkey, a female donkey is not
edible, so the milk that comes from an animal that is not edible,
that particular mouth is considered to be in pure and Allah
knows best, real adeny, other than a human being, so a human being is
not edible. So on this logic, you would think that since a human
being is not edible, therefore the breast milk would be impure. This
is an exception, other than a human being. So we have a rule,
and then we have an exception to that particular rule, and Allah
knows who's best. So here we have a listing in terms of, again, sort
of mutations. I hope I'm getting it with right Inshallah,
permutations, human breast milk. Human breast milk would be pure
Thai, even from a man or a a minor in the highly unlikely event that
a male person's chest bosom swells up with breast milk. That
particular breast milk would be considered as as pure. If it's a
minor, a small girl having not reached the age of puberty, her
chest, the breast, swell up with with milk. That milk would be
considered to be pure. So if you want to wrap that up, it would
read that.
Substances. The next chapter that we're going to be dealing with
being nila sumaha, in this class, would be impure substances that
can be purified. So we've had, we have our list. Now, in that list,
you'd have noticed two things. The one very early on, was wine, that
wine is considered to be impure.
Can one be purified? That's the question we ask ourselves. Now the
next item that we mentioned would be carrying if you come across a
dead animal along the the roadside, then that animal and all
of its parts are considered to be impure. Is it possible for us to
purify parts of that animal like they hide? Those are questions
which we are going to answer, even as in reading through impure
substances that can be that can be purified. So the first issue would
be that if you're going to purify something, if you're going to
purify something, it means that that particular substance needs to
go through a a change. Needs to go through a change. The word for
condition would be Hal condition.
Then isti Hala is taking the root letters Hawa, Olam, Hal condition,
and placing it on the 10th scale, on the 10th scale. Now there is
isti Hala, which means pallabu, tarail Hal to seek the change of a
condition, in other words, for change. Now wine which is impure.
Can it be purified by way of a change? Hides of a carrion, of a
dead animal? Can it go through a form of a change, a form of a
metamorphosis? Can it morph to a way that we no longer consider to
be impure, through istihala. What is istihala? Isti Hala is defined
as here in tilabu Shai, it is when something transitions. Means
sifatin ila, SIFAT in ukra from one status quo, from one quality
to another. Ma Abu Kai he the highly whilst, in essence, it
still remains the same. And Allah SWT, so there's a metamorphosis in
this particular regard.
The next slide looks rather text heavy, but don't worry too much.
Inshallah, it is fairly simple, and we're going to now apply
and add detail to the framework that we mentioned at the very
beginning of this section of our lesson. What binasia The author
says, wataturu al hamratu, wine becomes pure either the HAL Lalit
when it transforms into vinegar, binacia by itself. So when wine
transforms into vinegar all by itself, it becomes pure wakatalic
and Nabi Mina tama and likewise, any other type of intoxicant which
we would refer to as Nabi a person has dates. The dates ferment and
it develops a a kick and
it now has the quality of intoxicating. Waka, Dali, can
Nabi, Mina, tamo, you leave this intoxicant, and it transformed by
itself into vinegar. Was abid.
The same applies to raisins. Wajir, duly that dubira And the
last The second aspect that we are looking at would be Wajir, Dul
maitati, the hide of carrying of a dead animal either when it is 10.
So those are the two things, when they transform in the manner which
is going to be explained now, be it milasu behind watala, what
happens they are considered to be they are considered to be pure
when it transforms, when it morphs in this particular manner, it is
considered to be pure. Okay, so two types of things become pure
due to istihala, due to a change when wine becomes vinegar. But now
we're going to look at the detail first, when wine becomes vinegar.
Now, wine can become vinegar either by itself. Now, if the wine
becomes vinegar by itself, there's no question. In terms of our
School of food, we consider that vinegar to be pure. It was wine.
It became vinegar all by itself. It is considered to be pure, and
Allah SWT knows best. The other possibility would be that wine
becomes vinegar, but by adding something, so if a person has wine
and then that wine becomes vinegar. But it became vinegar
because you added something to the wine. If that added element is
impure, then the consequence would be lam tatur alhamr with tahalu,
then that wine would not be considered to be pure when it
becomes vinegar. And Allah's best. Now when you add something, the
other possibility when you add something. I'm going along, wine
becomes vinegar by adding something we discussed, if you're
adding impure phenomenon, how about when you add a pure
phenomenon? When you add a pure phenomenon, our scholars say, for
in New Zealand, walamy and fosmin.
If you have.
Wine, and you add a pure substance into it, then you remove that pure
substance before the wine becomes vinegar, and before
that substance which you added into the water disintegrates in
the in the wine. Sorry, not the water. So
let me just go back. You have wine. You're going to add
something. The additive is pure.
Now, when that wine becomes vinegar,
if it happened that you put the additive in and then you
immediately took it out, or you took it out before that additive
dissolved in the wine. And then we're going to consider that
vinegar to be pure, otherwise, not in Allah's best look. We're
getting into a bit of of detail in this in this regard,
very simply, if you were to have wine
and you add an additive to it, according to the Shafi school of
thought, that vinegar is not going to be considered as as pure. And
Allah knows most best in Cape Town, not our previous mufti,
the Mufti before our previous mufti, the father our previous
mufti, Mufti man Yusuf Karan, he gave the ruling in appropriating
the Hanafi school of thought that
considers
vinegar or wine transformed into vinegar, irrespective whether you
add something or you don't add something, consider it to be pure
and consumable. I always wanted knows best, strictly speaking,
according to our school of thought, when you add something
for all practical purposes, whether that additive is pure
impure, that vinegar is not going to be considered as as permissible
to to consume. Allow me just to read, go back and just do justice
to the Arabic text here between us until it says, if you add a pure
additive for enuja, if it's taken out, coblet, the Khalo before
that, wine becomes vinegar, wallamia, Yan fosil, minashe un
and that additive hasn't dissolved in any way or no part was
separated from it. Pahoratilham, that wine will be rendered pure
when it come changes into vinegar, while tunza in kabla tahalu, if
that additive is not removed prior to the wine becoming vinegar,
abusing in fasola, or it was taken out prior to the wine becoming
vinegar, but a part of that had already dropped and dissolved.
Then lamb taurel, then that wine would not be considered pure when
it becomes vinegar. And Allah SWT knows was best, we continue with
our reading in terms of istihala. So two types of things become pure
due to istihala, due to this metamorphosis. The one we spoke
about was when wine becomes when wine becomes vinegar. The second
is a hide when it is treated. What is meant by a hide when it's
treated, in other words, when it is tanned. So what is the proof
for this? You have a dead animal, you remove the hide, and you turn
the hide, and then in turning the hide, the hide becomes pure and
permissible for you to to use. What is the proof for that? The
proof for that is the statement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
ali was tahora when a hide is tanned. Then as a result of that
tanning process, then the height becomes pure, and Allah knows was
best. The next question which we ask ourselves, what is meant by
tanning? So a person slaughters a sheep? Okay, that's a different
issue altogether, because when you slaughter a sheep, then, because
you slaughtered the animal, according to Islamic rights
automatically, the meat and the hide is considered to be pure,
although it is post that recommended by panomys, compulsory
for you to tender tender hide. Here you find a dead animal, and
you remove the hide and you want to purify it. How do you purify
it? By tiny what is tanning? Fabulate, removing all excess from
the skin. Be reviving. Wala una, Jason with
a with an acidic substance. Wala una, Jason the author, now will
explain to us what is meant by habif walebi, wama, yelga, Uli San
bir,
because of its acidity. If you were to place it on your tongue,
it's going to sting your tongue. It's going to burn your tongue
like calcor, like pods and like the feces of
pigeons.
And other than a light one, wasa iruluna just said all impurities,
tauru is rendered pure. Bill Rusli, when you wash it with pure
water, knees in the when the taste and when the color and when the
smell dissipate is removed. Wala Abu Baka, uloniza walugo, however,
at the same time, the Sharia is very practical. It now states
walaya, baka ulomin, the remaining of a color Aure or or smell color
and smell my taste color and smell asura zawaru, which is difficult
to remove. It doesn't remain banned and persist, and then no
problem, it will be over, overlooked. What is meant by
difficult to to remove. Our scholars say a letter Zul about
the last when you take something and then you thrice you attempted
to wash it, and in the process of washing, you're also rubbing and
you and you scrubbing, and despite that, the impurity still persist,
in terms of the color, blood by example, or the the smell, then
that will be overlooked, and Allah SWT knows who's best, however, at
the same time, even if you're struggling. But now what happens
is the color and the smell remains together, the color and the smell
remains the color and the smell remains that that would
be harmful. What does? What does it mean by be harmful that would
not be considered as as pure? In other words, you wouldn't be able
to pray in such a garment. Or if the taste only remains, then the
taste is considered to be very strong, and the taste remaining
would be considered as harmful. In other words, that particular item
would not be considered to be pure, and I was not the last issue
wala Yatra a liquid, and this were discussed in last week's lesson.
We spoke about
impurities coming into contact with liquid. If a liquid is water,
then if it's a little, or if it's a lot, there's a difference of
opinion, not a difference of opinion. There's a different
application there. When an
impurity comes into contact with
a liquid other than water, for example, like honey, then the
ruling is that when it comes into contact and that liquid is in the
liquid form, like honey, something solid form, then, irrespective
whether it is a little bit or a lot, that will be contaminated and
not suitable for consumption purposes or for any other purpose
of that matter, here the author reiterates that particular point.
He says, wala your Nairo, that a liquid, not referring to water, a
liquid substance like honey, ghee or whatever the case may be, will
not be considered pure. IData najesa When it comes into contact
with an impure substance. And Allah SWT knows, knows best. That
brings us to the end of today's lesson. Inshallah, our next lesson
will be dealing with the dry ablution. Bid Nila. Subhana wa
taala, which we will which we will do? Be it Nila? Subahan, today,
when we meet, same time, same place, next week with me last
week. Mashallah, how are the brothers and
sisters doing today? A
I find in the class. Normally, when I have a I wouldn't say a
live class, but normally I prefer like sort of an interaction. And
normally my classes are like half an hour or like 55 minutes,
but
and with, with, with, with, with the a great degree of interaction,
but those are the live classes in on a on a live format, in a
physical class,
but the platform sort of is, is structured in a way that the class
is delivered, and then after the class is delivered, and then
there's opportunity for interaction between teacher and
student. So initially it takes some getting used to but
Inshallah, not without benefit. Are there any questions perhaps
relating to the lesson that we can we, can we can we can look at and
tackle bidila subhanu wa taala, if not, and then we will conclude bid
nila, Subhana, talabara, kolofiya, but please feel free either in
terms of the chat that we have over here, or alternatively, you
could ask a question. Vertical,
nor have a can
of equal now i.
How
are
you? Okay?
I'm good. Thank you. I received your message, but it's been a
friend ethic since yesterday and today. In terms of repeat for the
class, I wasn't able to respond, but I will save you a number
inshallah and respond timely baraka of imlash. No worries,
whatever. No problem you had. You had mentioned because there's a
there's a class and Mustafa Latif, and to the best of my
understanding, after this class. There's the Matan Abu Suja with
the kifaya, and the after comes man Abdul Rahman's class
now, so wanted to make sure also that you sort of in the right
class. Yeah, Sheik, I've studied a few of the books. So
I've done risato, Jamia, Safina, I've done, I've done abhisheja up
to boyu and,
yeah. And I've done, I'm doing mukata mahadrami as well. I'm
doing that Masaru talima as well, at the moment with another
teacher, yeah. So I've done a few of the books in Alhamdulillah.
They're in the right order, but of dealing with the various teachers,
Allah except and we're hoping to benefit from
you
going forward each other. You
