Muhammad Carr – 18 Forbidden Times for Prayer Ba Fadl’s The Short Abridgement

Allahu one Farnam tena was in Allahumma, innanfauna, where

founder Allah in as a look at nefarious conversia, wamali,

mutaka, Belarus, if I am in kulida, ubaidu, Asmaa, arikum,

warahmatullahi, taala, katu, Alhamdulillah, we thank and praise

Allah subhana wa Taala for his many blessings that He has

bestowed upon us. We beseech ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala to increase us in

those blessings. Alhamdulillah, by His grace, we have now reached

lesson number 18 in terms of our reading of fatherless Al mustazar

Al Latif, the short abridgement. Today's lesson revolves around the

prohibited times of prayer. There are certain times within the 24

hour cycle that it is prohibited for a person to pray. I'm going to

delve directly into the text. It reads as follows, Wataru, mumsati

ATI, the author, says, what a humu haruma Yahoo means to be

impermissible. What is the word haram mean? May you serve ala Tab

key or your akabu alafa alihi, if you do it, you will be punished.

If you abstain from it, you will be rewarded. What a rum Salah to

that prayer is impermissible. Fi Hansa, ton, fi in concert, five ot

O God being the plural of the word wakat, which refers to times. So

there are five times in which praying is considered

impermissible

before we go into that,

the author gives us a broad framework in terms of the

breakdown. So there are five times within the 24 hour cycle. Those

five times are divided into two categories. Let's look at that

quickly. Bid nila, subhana wa taala. So the Haram times falls

into two categories. The first one would be two of which relate to

the action and three of which relate to the time. So the three

which relates to the time would be at the time of sunrise. In other

words, it is impermissible to pray at that particular time due to the

time. So what is the time? The time of sunrise, impermissible to

pray. Number two, the time when the sun reaches its zenith. It is

now at its highest point at that time, and the focus being on the

word time. At that time, it is impermissible to to pray. The last

time would be just before sunset, just before sunset, and Allah SWT

knows was best, so sunrise before sunset, and when the sun reaches

its zenith, then on the other side,

we now have a balance of two,

but those two does not relate to the time, but rather relates to

the action of a person, the action being after a person had

performed, and the emphasis now being on the word perform, after a

person had performed his Asar prayer, and after a person has

performed his his fajr prayer and Allah subhanaw taala knows, knows

best. So again, just to recap, in terms of the first slide, it is

impermissible to perform Salah at five times. Those five times are

divided into two categories. The first category relates to the

time, the focus being on the word time, and the second category

relates to the action of a person. In the second category, after

you've prayed your ASR, then it is impermissible for you to pray

until sunset, after you've prayed your Fajr, it is impermissible for

you to pray until sunrise and ALLAH SubhanA knows no space.

We'll unpack that as we go along with melasuba hanuatala. So we're

going to start with number number one. Number one reads as follows,

were in the Tulu is Shamsi had tartara kadara Rum hain, so the

first time in which is impermissible to pray would be

were in the Tulu ashamci At sunrise, Hata until tartafia,

kadara, rumkin, until

the sun reaches the length of a spear. So it is not permissible to

pray at sunrise until the sun reaches the length of a spear. How

do we understand that the height of the spear, the height of the

spear, not from the real dynamic? If you look at the real dynamic,

then the sun is approximately 150,000

100 and 50 million kilometers from the earth. That is the actual.

Says that there is a consensus that it is permissible to bury a

person at any given time. It is permissible. So how do we

understand this narration? This narration to refers to when a

person intentionally

buries the dead during these three time periods. But if it happens so

like they express in Arabic, it just so happens that a person

passes away in the afternoon, and as the narration says, There are

three things that shouldn't be delayed. One is when a person

passes away, for the person to be buried as soon as possible, so the

family hasten to prepare the deceased in terms of the

purificatory path, in terms of the shouting and another one to

Bering. By the time it comes to Bering, it is now after outside.

So how did it happen? Did they intend to bury the person at that

time? No, it just so happened coincidentally, if you want to use

that particular word. So if it happens coincidentally, no

problem. This narration talks about specifically intending to

bury a person at peace, prohibited times and Allah knows best.

However, our focus here is not burying that we will discuss when

we come to kitabul. Jannah is what we focusing on here would be the

Prophet sallallahu wa salam, prohibited that we pray during

three times. What are those times he returned when the sun rises,

hatta, until it reaches the length of a spear. Wahine, when the sun

reaches its zenith. Hat Tamil, ashemsu Until the sun moves away

from its zenith. And the last time, wahine todo Yifu ashem

through. When the sun seeks to

sit. Why I'm deliberating a bit is because the Arabic wording is

quite unique, totally when the sun seeks to become a guest of the

West. In other words, it's going down. That's the literal

translation of the wording used in Allah's best clearly, we can see

the proof, underscoring or indicating to us that praying

during those three times are considered to be impermissible,

and Allah SWT knows as best we continue, we're now going to

number four. Now remember number four and number five. It's

impermissible times to pray, but the impermissible permissibility

is tied into your action when you pray Fajr. Then after fajr, until

sunlight, you cannot pray when you pray

ASR, then from that point that you pray until Malik, it is

impermissible for you to to pray. Allah. SWT knows what's best. So

let's look to the slide now be in the last it reads as follows. WABA

ADA salatu Subah, he had that lotions after the morning prayer.

Had that lush answers until the sun rises. WABA ADA salatu Subah,

Hashem, after the fajr prayer until the sun rises. So after the

prayer of Fajr, in a manner that precludes having to repeat it. If

you have to repeat it, then the time is not considered haram, as

you have technically not performed Fajr yet. Just to explain that a

little bit, what happens is I wake up, for example, and now I'm going

to pray my my fajr. So I pray it only to discover that I did not

have although,

so now I prayed Fajr, but my fajr wasn't valid

the time thereafter. Is it considered to be an impermissible

time? No, it is still permissible for me to pray Fajr, though

technically or in real terms, I've prayed, but technically I haven't

prayed. Important to understand Allah SWT knows knows best. So

after a person performs Fajr validly, I perform Fajr, and the

fajr prayer that I've performed is a valid prayer. What does it mean?

A valid prayer? Muskudum, little kala it absolves me of my

responsibility to pray. In other words, are fulfilled obligation

once you pray Fajr in such a manner, then the time remaining

after that, up until sunrise, it is impermissible for you to pray

during that time, and Allah SWT knows best. Alternatively, if you

pray Fajr, but it wasn't done validly, then the time after that

invalid Fajr is not considered to be impermissible, because

technically speaking, you haven't prayed Fajr. And Allah SWT knows

no space and this prohibition, it continues until Sun, Sun, sunrise.

So we go again to the text be Dina. We're now looking at number

we looked at number four. This is supposed to be number five, but

the wording, the numeral number is incorrect. So number five, WABA,

Ada, salatilah. And after the execution of the Assad prayer hat,

that's until the sun sets. The same ruling apply here. The same

rulings apply after the prayer of Assad in a manner that precludes

having to repeat it. If you have to repeat it, then the time is not

considered haram, as you have technically not performed assert

yet. And Allah SWT knows best, and this prohibition, it continues.

Till till sunset. What is the proof? In a particular regard?

Again, the proof comes in the form of the following narration of the

Prophet Muhammad, sallAllahu, alayhi wa Avi was Absalom. It

reads as La Salat about the salatul. Assad, there is no

prayer. In other words, it's not valid for you to pray. After the

prayer of ASR had that versions until the sun sits. What else?

Sarat, abaji, there's no praying. That was not valid for you to

pray, impermissible for you to pray after you have prayed your

Fajr. Salah had that until the sun rises and ALLAH SubhanA knows not

best. Now what happens is we've looked at

the 24 hour cycle, and we've said that there are five times in which

is impermissible to pray. That's the ground rule. But as you and I

are quite familiar with, ma'am and I am in illawar, there is no

general rule except that you have exceptions to the rule. What are

those exceptions? Are the exceptions? And what are those

exceptions? We turn to the slide now. It reads as as follows, wala

ya, rumo, fiha, malahu, Saba bun Phil Hali katahi, it is

not impermissible fear in the five times mentioned, malahu, Saba, bun

to pray such a prayer that has a cause preceding it,

katahriyatil, Masjid, for example, the prayer of greeting the Masjid.

When we go to the masjid, then there's a manner of greeting the

Masjid.

When you meet somebody and you greet the person, there's a

certain formula, Asmaa to rakatu when you go to the masjid, it is

recommended that you greet the Masjid. How do you greet the

Masjid? There is also a a formula, and it comes in the form of two

units of prayer. Now you're going for mahrib, sarabha, wave.

Example. It's you. You've prayed your ASR after you've prayed your

Assad. The time now from after ASA till malib, impermissible for you

to pray. Now you go to the masjid, and you're arriving before the

Adani is called out for Madrid, you're entering the masjid, so

you're going to greet the Masjid. Now, when you enter into the

masjid, entering the masjid is the reason for the prayer of greeting

the Masjid. Does that reason precede the salah? If it precedes

the Salah, then you are licensed to pray that salah, even though it

may be in a haram time, and Allah SWT knows it's best, so wala, ya,

it is not impermissible to execute prayers during these otherwise

impermissible times on condition that the prayer that you are

praying has a cause which precedes it, and Allah SWT knows best well.

Khusuf, another example is given off. Further examples are, are

given. What are further examples? Number one, khusuf. And khusuf,

they refer to

solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse respectively. Now prayer

of seeking water, salatul istiska, again, if you analyze this

particular prayer, does the cause of it preceded? If the cause of it

preceded, it can be prayed anytime. By way of example, we go

out

to the outskirts of the of the city, and what is the time we're

in drought? What is the time? The time is from after assert till

Marib is normally a Haran time. But this particular prayer, since

the cause of the prayer precedes it, it is now permissible to pray

that prayer, even though it is an otherwise haram time to to pray

repaying a missed prayer, whether it was formed or an I feel prayer,

a person the Prophet SAW. The prophetic example in this regard

would be that after war, he had received a a delegation, and the

delegation preoccupied him from praying his recommended prayer. So

what happened then was, on the same day, the Prophet saw him

prayed his * prayer, and after the ASA, the Prophet SAW made

kava, not of a farsara, but kava of a sunnah, which he missed. So

it is permissible for a person to

make kava of a sunnah, Salah in these otherwise prohibited times

in Allah knows best a prayer due to a vow taken the two units of

prayer following wudu. The two units are tawaf. What happens in

terms of tawaf? A person performs a sacrum, ambulation of the Kaaba.

Thereafter, it is recommended to perform two units of prayer. What

is the reason for those tunes of prayer, the tawaf which precedes

it? Therefore, it is permissible for you to pray those tunes of

prayer, even though it may be after Asad, after you've prayed

your Assad, and even if it may be after fajr, or even if it may be

at midday, whatever the case may be, and Allah SWT knows best. The

same applies to sajda of tilawa, and sajda after shukr, and Allah

SWT knows that's best. It is important to note the following,

so we said that in these impermissible times, if it's a

prayer the cause of which precedes it, it's permissible for you to

pray Duna to the exception, malasavala hu that which does not

have a cause. For example, like a normal superrogatory prayer, you

simply want to pray in order to gain closeness to Allah subhanaw.

So look at the cause here. The cause follows the prayer. It

doesn't precede the prayer. So therefore not permissible for you

to.

That in the 24 hour cycle, there are five times which is

impermissible for you to perform prayer we've run through those

five times is the exception to that particular rule? Yes, our

scholars say ustasna, female, sabaka, haram, maka is excluded

from all of the rulings that was mentioned the Haram of Mecca. And

therefore, what do we mean? Excluded from this particular rule

later to feel it is not impermissible to pray in the Haram

feel ham satil, mutakadima in any of the aforementioned five time

slots. Why? Because the Prophet salsa May said, Ya Beni, abdiman,

ath, Oba ni Abdi, minath, Latin NAU, do not prevent. Ah, any

person, kafa, bihad al Bayt

that wishes to circumambulate this house, wa sallallah, and he wishes

to perform prayers whichever time he wishes now mean laying on a

Hari, whether it relates to the day or whether it relates to the

evening. Clearly there from the wording of the Prophet salsa, what

do we find? What do we discover? What are we taught? We are taught

that, yes, there are five times impermissible for a person to

pray. But is inception to that? What is the exception? The haram

of Mecca. It is permissible for any person at any given time to

circumambulate the Kaaba and to pray. They are absolutely no

restrictions in terms of a time frame when it comes to

circumambulating and praying within the sanctuary of the the

holy mosque. Alhamdulillah, we've reached the end of Lesson number

18. Our next lesson deals with the issue of upon whom is Salah

compulsory? Salah compulsory? But what are the conditions that make

the prayer compulsory? We look at it in our next lesson. Be it nila

subahan mutha, Allah, for now, BarakAllahu, Kum jamiyan, may

Allah. Bless you. Assalamu. Alaikum. Warahmatullahi Taala or

barakatuh.
