Crucial for us. Because the life to come is not going to be so short lived.

And grant indicates that as well.
People saying to Allah if I only stayed till evening, I only stayed an hour or so. A few hours, maybe. Because that's hard that's hard to compare on the day of judgment
on the day of judgment before last month.
So it was it was a tough week.
That ability and keep us on stalking, stalking enlighten our way. These are reminders that we come together to learn from me to remind myself and to remind my brothers and sisters
because in the thicket of all what's going on in dunya we need to be able to have some guiding lights and learning Quran and Hadith our guiding light. Our salah is a guiding light, I'll say, is the guiding light, our hajj and umrah our guiding lights are painters Guiding Light
familiar spot on make these lessons a guiding light for us, for the students and the teacher because we're all who desperately need
this hadith, the phallus
and
in honor
of the Allahu Anhu mela or
submit to those who live Rasul Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam submit to the likes of Allah when he was telling me a good morning al Islam Allah Himself shahada to Allah Ilaha illa Allah for Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah
what a farm is Salah or Eater is occur we're having children they were solely Ramadan
they said you disabuse is quoted in Bukhari and Muslim, as we say, more difficult than most agreed upon, including it as authentically
this studies
in my note, we've chosen it to put in his 40 selection, you can see why he's chosen. So comprehensive
compare and he tends to use tends to have chosen key leaf as he pointed out himself remembering the introduction,
which he's saying, he feels the very foundation of this thing, this way of life. So, guiding lights, really, this is very fundamental and foundational.
Hadith, which is involving Muslim monks authentic course.
Is reported with slightly different words as well, I am not we, of course, doesn't go into that. But even Rajiv, of course, who did
a deep analysis and explanation of these ahaadeeth and added, if you remember, can more to it goes into that kind of thing. I've done other
people who did actually have the Hadith, who did
an explanation of the DISA Hadees like hate me.
And they mentioned therefore, that this study comes through other chains also in Bukhari and Muslim with slightly different words. So we have in Mohali, for example.
And perhaps I should translate first of all, give you the words
the hadith of course, in the Omer the allow anima is saying that the Messenger of Allah heard him say that Islam is built on five,
or nearly slum, Allah has been built on five shahada to La Ilaha illa Allah, on the declaration that there is no God but Allah, and that Muhammad is some prayers of Allah is the messenger of Allah. That's the first what you call me Salah in establishing the Salah
and paying the second
and performing the Hajj to the House to the house of Allah and, and fasting Ramadan, these other five participants. So, first one is the shahada
in one narration, which is in Wahhabi, instead of saying shahada to Allah, Allah, Allah Allah, the word say, Iman Billa, you are also
Eman, Billahi Rosaleen, which essentially, to have emailing Allah and His Messenger, which is the same thing. In one version in Muslim say, Muslim of the same Hadith. Instead of saying Shanthi Allah ilaha IL Allah Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah it says, and yet with Allah Who were you Farah Wyatt photo bheemarjuna.
It is to worship Allah to to Ibadah of Allah, and to reject all that is aside from him in that worship
that's the shahada again, explained in different words, and that version is in Sahih. Muslim, same hottie another version in Sunni Muslim again
On December the eighth, so the shadow says that Barney Allah Islam, Allah Hamsun I knew what had Allah I knew what had Allah
that I had a level that
Tawheed basically
that is foundation is that Allah is made one,
Allah is made one. So these are various versions in the words are the same Hadith,
which is very important when you're studying Hadith to get
the same Hadith or similar Hadith on the same topic because it gives you an understanding of that particular hadith of that particular thief
now
this this is reported by Abdullah on
the second video that we went through and the first two of these if in fact the first of these was about Nia who reported that from the puppies
on top level and father
Abdullah Omar is the father is the son of the owner of course it's saying you've never met a son a woman or woman Qatar North atop the secondaries
along Khalifa Gibreel is reported by the one he never we anyway because we have other people reporting it as well.
Okay, but if you remember when we looked to say Muslim and looked at the full Hadith with what context it was reported in, two people came, right, because people have been saying some of our other in their area and cam and they met at the huddle somebody
who mentioned this at the second Hadith along with Ethan Gibreel. Who did the meet.
It was
it was an honor. And he's saying my father said in that belief, okay. In this one. He's not saying my father said, What was he saying? He's saying symmetrical.
Symmetrical Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, we are cool. Hi heard me. So he's Sahabi
was about 10 years of age.
When he did the Hijra with his family with his father.
He was already very He's older than blood Nimbus.
But
he's older, so he's already 10 years of age during the Hydra, and he's still Sahabi so by the time the Prophet SAW Salem, breezes last Salallahu Salam dilemna honor is what not 21 years of age
21 years of age
10 or 11 years of age, it's not absolutely precise. This is what historians have written blood no not embraced Islam early in in Mecca. He didn't embrace same time as his family embrace. His mother was, of course, the wife of honorable
eminence on top and who was the
the sister they say of course Marla members own.
I haven't got time to go into all those detail but one of them in my own words, a famous in Mecca.
As one of the companies will publicize.
Yeah, so I'm delighted that Omar embraced Islam early migration, and he became one of the leading scholars of the sahaba.
Behind his father and and Abu Bakr and Osman Ali Abdullah Jemaine, yes. So he's one of the younger ones, but not as young as of the Lucknow bus. And beloved Ambus, who also was one of the great scholars
of Islam.
Abbas is
Allah mentioned from the time of the Sahaba forum dowless
forum numbers that we should know about. They're all very significant.
Yes,
makes it three doesn't it?
So you won't forget momentum
Oh
Abdullah even um in the last number four
you will see it in books and you think it's saying the lack of minimum if you especially see it in Arabic
and you can get confused and
not realize that now we're talking about a different person
that's Abdullah Omer
so when you see the other one it will be like this
yeah and this is what you want to see it's easy to see it and think like the same person it's not this one
last
fall
remember this person
I'm going to allow us
to see that
two people embrace Islam later on after most of the battles have taken place during the
fact of the day via during the tricky Moldavia.
He was one of them who also zero famous ones who embraced lots of people embraced Islam at that time, of course, remember we said more people embraced Islam during that peace treaty and all the years gone by?
That he was one of the leading ones who fought against the Prophet assaults on our HumbleBundle us and his, the other one who came similar time to him was college, will it?
US who was the son of ours even even while
I asked him why he was one of the older Quraysh it was a very stingy person. Yeah, from the crash which sticks didn't embrace Islam. Yeah, because he embraced Islam late. So like let us embrace Islam. Yeah, he was one of those stingy person and his story is mentioned during the time when the Prime Minister Hassan was well involved in the Treaty of Hill Hill Fufu. The Treaty of chivalry
the Pact of chivalry at the house, because alas even while it is supported in Sierra riding, sadly, had wronged a person bought the goods of a person wouldn't give him the money.
Yeah. laughs laughs It was a while and they had to go and
deal with that prophesy someone who has made the pact anyway.
So the four of the lowest of the Abbas Abdullah Ahmed and Abdullah an honorable us these three of the last
are have large number of narration in Hadith, not Abdullah Nazarbayev.
Why? Because the Black Lagoon is a vase was killed at the hands of a judge
a judge of news use of the governor who was sent in Medina the title that title Thailand nickel killer, it was a Muslim was a Muslim. This is politics while we asked him why we
think it's Marwan he's under the rulership of that and
because Abdullah and Zubayr have of course
the blood and zubaid is the son of
a smart
as smart being a be back
as smart is of course the sister of Alma what mini
eyeshadow on her.
So as SMA was married to
the wave
Zubayr Zubaydah middle one so their son was of the legends of wave
and Abdullah on zubaid decided to declare
that he was Khalifa in Mecca
Okay, and that's why the Holy a Khalifa was sent her judgment use of to sort out this Khilafah politics
because some of the Latins obey was unhappy of course after Alia, that allowed what happened with Malia and then after him Yazeed and all these kinds of people and he wasn't happy with their rulership.
Yeah, we're talking about after Why not with why we didn't declare that during warriors time. Well, yeah, we set the alarm on Saturday.
But those who came after, okay.
Of course, he put himself out to danger. And I've learned the honor and a blunt adversities
documented advise them not to do that
is asking for trouble. And he got killed at the hands of a judge the use of
said another story. So a dilemma is about of course, you know, they lived on after that. So they were transmitting and teaching lots of Hadith after all the other three of doulas. Yeah.
So, that's why those are the great scholars, but it doesn't take away the greatness of legends are barely seen as martyr in Islam, they don't hit the hands. That's why his mother said,
when her judge came to her door,
and as a mentor, a backer who'd gone blind by now,
she addressed her judge saying that the Prophet SAW Islam mentioned to people who would come after him to bad people. One would be a great liar at the jail
from the from the, the old man, and the other would be a great killer and a murderer and a butcher. He said we already had the liar. It was Mustela Clem prophethood remember, at the time of Abu Bakr de la and in fact the time you probably saw soon
he tried to claim or even then that and then she said and that was asylum and of course the killer. It killed us. Yeah, the killer is you
he's he retorted, you know what he said? He said yeah, I was raised Dr. Kill monastics like your son
so
that was 11 Those will be
on the left. No, I'm not. As I said, larger Hadith are transmitted Abdullah Allah from him directly hearing from the prophesy Salah and also transmitting from other Sahaba senior Sahaba. His father like that, lastly, we did is in transmitting from his father actually. And he also transmitted a DS from the likes of Bucher and Mern and Ali Golan, whom he might mean other senior Sahaba as well.
He was
when he was bothered and offered he was not old enough. They tried to get involved in the Battle of offered but he was under 15 They said when he became 15 he then was part of all the other guys who are on the battles with the prophets are Salam some Hunter cottonwoods that are in the trenches
What else can I say? Yes.
He and Abdullah my boss tended not to get too much involved in the politics of what was going on take sides
Nevertheless, he was very bold in what he had to say to even tire it's like hydrogen news of this recording authentically and Hajaj at one time and Medina started doing a sermon after Lahore and carried on beyond us and it was getting time toward near Muslim and Abdullah Allah was in the audience so he got up in front of every judge you don't speak to anything negative I judge you get your head chopped off this simple as that.
I mean, remember in the end he is Governor as well. Is that authority and power
even though I'm not normally savvy see you is a hobby and he's older old savvy now yeah, he passes away in 7374 Hijiri Yeah, so another
60 odd years after the prophesies only lives on you see
and so we can use of carrying on
a balloon our says stop this backpack that's going on until you pray let's pray the time for prayer is here then you can carry on your backpack afterwards. Back Back actually in Arabic has the same meaning as it has in order to this as well don't let if you know the Punjabi they say stop a backpack but valve country stop the backpack. Same is come from this word.
nonsense talking just waffling stop talking. Stop yeah nonsense talking and right so you said that
but it is said also documenting the history that color blindness Oh
was said when he became seriously ill and die that he was poisoned by hijacked the noose of who sent one of his cronies with a dagger to the poison target to cut him and he fell ill after that and he passed away
a blender almost
used to have scores and scores of students
and this goes back to what I mentioned much earlier on he also had a book in writing from American cartography said and he had also books written by scores and scores of Tabby in rural honey from him.
So writing goes right back to Sahaba so those who have the idea or Hadith writing started Orientalist love this idea because Muslims keep
perpetuating this idea wrongly the Hadith faking started with Bukhari and Muslim you know, because mumble hottie passed away in 255 regions on the third century nonsense, and these writings already their manuscripts from the Sahaba stone. Okay,
so that's someone
who's reporting that a little bit about him it's important to learn about Sahaba same time
Abdullah Omar is one of the ones just remember the one or two things um, have you seen, he's one of the key persons to transmit the Hadith of the beard, clipping the mustache and growing the beard. He is one Abu Hurayrah is the other and
well two of them they're the key people there's one or two more Sahaba who mentioned but majority of these reported on growing the beard clipping the mustache from a blog on our
blog no definitely.
And I'm blanking on
which shows you the interpretation as well because some came with the idea and it's also popular idea amongst some now is that anybody who clips and cuts the beard even
a clip of it with anything will go to hellfire severe punishment isn't it because the Prophet saw some given order to let the one day see the Hadith they see and let the beard grow as grow grow, grow, grow grow, do anything with it. Now Saudi interpreted and clip the mustache as another way of looking at it and Abdullah Ahmed, which is authentic us to him, is that actually during
during a holy Ibadah of Hajj and Umrah he used to clip his beard he used to cut his beard and hold it there and cut whatever is underneath his one reporting the Hadith Subhan Allah Yeah, so if he's cutting it that's definitely not the meaning you put him in the Hellfire as well then yeah, it's very important to remember anyway just an interesting fact about
lots of other things but anyway come to this series
here you notice again
when we had the discussion in the last of these of Imam and Islam and all this discussion on what does Islam mean and what does the man me I said the best conclusion was which was also even regimens conclusion that when Islam remand come on their own in text, Afghan Hadith, the cover one covers the other. So if the word Imam comes it includes Islam, if Islam comes includes him.
Okay, that's the best way But Roger explained how to understand okay, but if they come together then Eman means as the hadith of Gibreel means belief, the pillars of belief and Islam means Yeah, the practical implications.
So here, what is explain
Islam or Eman? This one? This
one nearly slum
is Islam has been built on five. Okay, somebody's mentioned five and they mentioned the word pillars.
They mentioned as pillars. Yeah, so this one doesn't actually say pillars but the understanding is five pillars. That's where the five pillars come from, by the way is this Sunday. Another Hadith that mentioned five as five pillars. Okay.
Five Pillars.
So built on five things because when
He talked about Bonilla built, then people think of a building, and five will be that would support the building.
So indirectly you get the idea of five pillars anyway. Yeah, foundation and pillars you could say, of five.
So he's saying that Islam is built on the five. So he's talking about Islam. But if you notice that within Islam, what's the first pillar?
Which is what?
Imam
Imam, isn't it lazy men?
So when Islam comes on its own or even Reginald say, it includes the man and is doing
the Laila handle Allah and when I have effectively says Eman, Billa,
Eman Billa, WA Rosaleen it is to believe in Allah and His Messenger isn't it?
So that's we have this the idea confirmed in this belief as well
that the one covers the other one because the other
and
so
in that regard, hate to me it says something which I like I like and I wanted to mention it.
Hey, for me who is separate from Embry Riddle who did his own tertiary hobby or by you know knowing
the explanation he says how key catalyst will email
this is a reality of Islam in the man he's explained today. And men attire be Hema Minam catamenial Whoever comes with both of them
Eman and Islam that person is a complete mopping complete a movement in a complete sense. It doesn't mean that perfect by the way when he's saying that.
Then he says Well, man, Taka Ha, calf Eden camulos. Oh, Kathy Lancome, Milan. Whoever leaves both of them Eman and Islam, then they are completely kind of true.
True, we agree. Then he says man technically Islam Wacka fantasycon.
Yeah.
Where we assume we assume mo we have some more meat on? Oh, yes. So Matt Mina Nathanson.
He says whoever leaves Islam only Islam not a man
is a classic.
Which is the opinion of Alison Elijah ma majority of opinion.
And he is called me because he still believes Yeah, but deficient modeling.
Because Islam he's talking about in our salon fasting and everything like that.
Woman Karaca a tyrannical Eman walk that whoever leaves Eman only
so what they're still got
Islam but where's the man
gone in real sense.
So if Islam is there which means the outward Eva that even salah and halogen Siam but Iran is not there. What is that person you told me? The first one is messenger. That's because what is that person?
What kind of contract can No, there's another word for it. The guy is praying or he doesn't believe in Allah so easy
which is a kind of coffee. Okay, the worst kind. So man, can I tell you man what monastic? Alright, I wanted you to think about it. Were you some Muslim unblockable and he or she is called Muslim? Apparently we don't call them were nothing because we can't see inside the house
okay, so I like that comment on
of hate to me. It's interesting. Some of those sums it up nicely doesn't it? Now
the rest of the things to deal with the minor Islam we dealt with last time, including about Salah we dealt with last time the difference of opinion. For those who don't pray
For those who don't pray out of laziness, those who pray for those who pray three rather than five those who pray non, what category they're under all that discussion happened in the last two days so I don't really want to open it up again.
Nevertheless, first thing I'd like to say is that notice
with this idea that the focus is on didn't say Islam is five pillars.
And Islam humps he didn't say he said money on Islam.
Bani al Islam and
Islam is built on fine.
So if Islam is built on five
okay.
implies there must be something built on it
and was built on it
is Islam as well?
This is part of the building.
Okay.
This, I've been saying for many years. I thought I was thinking about this 2030 years ago, when people in books and ontology would say Islamic five pillars. And I said, No, it's not. Islam is built on five pillars.
Yeah. So what is Islam?
Building?
Okay, if somebody will come to it and ask the question again, that's not the answer fully. It is architecture typical is the building.
But you know, a life What does it mean? The time he saw a life?
Our life? Yeah.
Because what I said, when I say again, if somebody puts up five pillars, and said, Here's a building
you'd say something wouldn't
be architects have plenty to say about that. Or if an architect put up a five pillars and said, Here's your building, here's your house.
You're gonna have a few choice words to say to them. Yeah, before you tell them where to go. Now, right.
This is very important to understand, isn't it? When we're province on the way he puts it puts every reason why Islam is so five villages standing on their own and not a building
and not a building.
Because the rest of life, so that's fine. Therefore it reflects that the pillars of the building have a purpose.
have a purpose? If they're not fulfilling the purpose and the building's not there, just the pillars are there and you missed the point.
Hence there are people there are people mentioned in a hadith who do not reflect the building reflect the pillar only and they are given the news of what
paradise or *

heavy financial in the past already Falana from the said feel there's so little so he likes a little isla. You're also hola hola Falana taught off will be cathrach be Casa de sala de Han was the army Han was the karate here also I thought he heard
while I came such and such a woman happens to be a woman this case can be a man or woman such as a person is known for lots of Salas and fasting and giving in charity.
But she causes harm to the neighbor. Either insulting to the neighbor any kind of harm from verbal insults or otherwise causing problems.
Call on us all Lisinopril Amelia had two little words to say. He effing up.
She's in the fire
panel
in authentically, you know, where they shouldn't be taken out later. That's a different ballgame.
And I've said to you this before, we can't play games with Allah, I'll get out eventually. If you're going to play games and do it because of that. It's unlikely you'll get out eventually even which you thought you could cheat God
who wants to be in Hellfire for a second? was none of us and there's no guarantee to get out if we think we're playing games with God either.
Even windows get taken out, others get taken out so effing now, then Falana they said, Torah Hobi Killa T salatu wa, wa crme Ha, yeah known for little of Salah little of fasting. That doesn't mean the obligatory by the way now doesn't mean to say this person's not fasting Ramadan and praying three times a bit more serious consequences, okay. But nevertheless any Baghdad, non foul little of that, but no harmful neighbor
Hey, I feel Jana or a civilized person will be in paradise.
So here again coming back to and this is very important to connect the bad that have a purpose document, which we're going to mention, as we mentioned these pillars, they have a purpose to hold up the building, and they have a purpose to reform our lives, but they know
the right
this honestly, sadly has been disconnected as it got disconnected in Christendom and Judaism.
It's got disconnected in Muslims and Islam as well for a long time, and we need to reconnect it. Reconnect the Ibadah and come into the mosque with how you are with parking your car outside the neighbor isn't it? I mean, we got a constant problem Alhamdulillah majority of Lok but I'll tell you
we think we got a problem. I said it. We think we've got a problem and actually our problems minimum go to majority of other mosques. Firstly in this country in Birmingham and Bradford and Burnley. You don't hear announcements like that what we make don't block people's drive because they block each other.
They block each other. And I went away a few months ago I was in Birmingham, I went to central mosque there.
And basically you have to park your car far away. If you don't want to get blocked by Iran mousseline.
And it is absolute chaos and pandemonium.
Yep. So woe betide if you get an emergency. Or somebody gets a heart attack in the mouth. Because no ambulance is gonna get in there, and neither you're gonna get out. But you know what to say?
It was the will of Allah, he had to die most. What nice place to die. Is that how are we supposed to see the will of Allah? Because we because for my incompetence, we couldn't get him out, you see.
So to cover it, we say it's a bit like, don't really want to mention the Saudis. But they did have to it's not a political statement.
Because it gets recorded and goes out. I want to stop me coming home run home. Anyway. It's a bit like the Saudis. When, if the preparations for the Hajaj are not too good, and things fall and they get killed. They say it was the will of Allah.
They were supposed to die there.
That's not the answer. You look at the breath. You look at the rain, we say you may say no, no, we went wrong there. That was wrong. That was That wasn't done. Right. Yeah, like used to happen in the past, because they didn't get the organization properly at the Romeo Jamara. That's the most dangerous place. So people are coming in opposite directions. And they just start stampede and kill each other. So stampeding stampeding is linked with animals. Is it not the word stampede, it's not supposed to be with human beings.
Come back.
So why I say it's important to make that connection. We can have the holiest of places and people are behaving stampeding like animals because we disconnected the Ibadah that from the building. And the building is your character as we're exposed to the building. That's why Islam is the behavior and character of what you're living when you walk outside the mosque is Islam not when you walk just in the mosque
is it this is a very fundamental point the process and Senate in another list we're going to come in later on while imageable when he said Russell amor al Islam. The head of the matter is Islam.
What
a muda who A salaam and its pillar is Salam.
Its pillar is Salam, Salam as mentioned there as well
as one of the, the the pillars of Islam, that hadith he's mentioning as like, the pillar of Islam on Islam. Salam, you know, singling it out is such an important thing.
What Virabhadrasana
mean, and is pinnacle is LG
is jihad. And I'll come back to the meaning of that word you have that a bit later on, remind me, because some people
some people wanted to add to this at least as though the problem is, is I missed one of the pillars.
Because it was so so, so important. So let's take a look. Some people even wrote a book saying the sixth pillar Islam, what do they call it?
I've just given you the clue from the other leaf, jihad, they felt that something's been left.
Yeah. So you'll see some writings, they say, well, one of the pillars of Islam besides the five is you had
some people actually call this six.
So how do you need to add to prophesy some forgot something now, the Willamette Valley?
Well, I'll come back to remind me as to why Jihad
doesn't need to be mentioned that, but it is mentioned in the other one, and what its meaning is the pinnacle is you had it because how people interpret the words you have that sixth issue.
Okay, so that's the first point that
Islam being built on five pillars, means
means that there is a building to be built. And this is to the very,
without the pillars, there's no building. Yeah, but with the pillars, and without the building, there's no building either. Yeah, but certainly, you've got no chance of having a building without the pillars. And that's to, that's more important for us to mention today as well, actually. Because nowadays, we have this namby pamby, whatever you call it all airy fairy kind of idea going in the Muslim youngsters now of humanitarian thing, and there's actually lots of people running around doing humanitarian things. But Salah is not important songs, not important. No connection with God is really irrelevant. Why? Because it makes me feel good to do humanitarian work. And it's good to
do it because logically, rationally, now that come with science as well, if you're doing charity work, and if you're giving to others, it'll make you feel good, and you'll feel it live a happier life. So that's why I'm doing it.
You know, so I'm saying,
so now we need to counter that, because
there's no building of Islam without the pillars either.
You can do is jump up and down, do more than the one who's doing the bad that I'm doing charity and humanitarian work, do 100 times more, but it will disappear, like, like dust or like ash on a day of judgment, will it not?
Because you, you had nothing to do with God.
It's just to deal with you again. And this is a warning. And if so, as I said before,
to become good.
In the sight of Allah, our Creator, that's what really matters good is decided by him, but not by philosophy, what is good?
They don't ask the question, where do we come from philosophy first, philosophy starts with what is good. Well hang on, before you get there. Before you define that from yourself. Ask where am I come from? And where am I going? Then you can define what is good, true.
Rather than that little bubble that you go and keep going around in philosophy, what is good?
The more fundamental question before that so good before Allah subhanaw taala there is no shortcut.
If the NBA and Russell I say, had to fast and pray near there too fast and pray more than even we did to be good and righteous.
Who do we think we are?
To think that I can be good? Yeah, but I don't need to pray if I don't.
Where does that sense come from?
For follow me.
That is nonsensical, that is nonsensical. You made yourself out to be better than Ambien Russell.
True.
So this is again, reminding us the other side of the equation is then the other side of the equation is that no good building, and no real Islam can happen without the pillars.
The pillars are a key.
That so yeah, so that's the meaning that we get from that as well in China. Now.
I'm going to I will do it next time in sha Allah, Allah
Open for Questions for anything we've covered today. So next time we look at each one of the pillars, starting with the shahada,
the shahada itself is
the shadow itself is misunderstood.
Miss, misunderstood, misapplied,
and left as something which is so superficial by our Muslim Ummah. We don't understand the profound meaning of the Shahada. Yeah, we even say it in Arabic, but many non Arabs saying it in Arabic don't understand what they're actually saying.
I know that I'm telling you, that's the case. So we look at the Shahada. And then we look at each pillar and see why is it a pillar? And where is his obligation? I certainly want to bring that out. Because there are some people going around.
And by the time we finish, we won't have much is going around saying where they say we have to pray five times a day. Doesn't say no.
And it is true. So people have knowledge need to know it is true.
It doesn't say five times during prep anywhere in the Quran.
Okay, and that's why the prophesize level is so important. And it's hadith is not the case. Hence we're doing Hadith.
And this is this comment that I'm making is a rebuttal of those who think they can throw these away the baby with the bathwater, because they found some weak, decent fabricated, and they didn't know that they had been classed as fabricated and weak and so on. I don't like this. Get rid of the baby as well as the bathwater. That's what they've done as well. And actually when you do that, there is no Islam because I see it for them. You can't even pray five times a day.
So we'll come back to that inshallah. I thought, golly Ha, that was the fibular holy welcome in that all wonderful. All right, any questions?
Just one quick question. What was the context of
this one? Is that significant? No. And there's no context mentioned or timing No.
Majority of the Quran
and majority Hadith
you don't find a context because it's general guidance given to the old man Okay. But But by far the vast majority of the Quran even
as baboon the zoo, or in this case, as Babel were rude, we call it as Bob and his rule for the Quran just technical terms. The situation of revelation of a particular idea somebody's asked the question he says cool. Oh yes sir Luca on it comes in a particular context we find that but there are few
Hadith again, at least sometimes you can find God this was happening and his homies explaining and probably saw some scientists.
More often you can find it.
But still the majority of the you know, it's a general statement.
And
what happens when you get even a general statement with a hadith? That's why it's good to look at other Hadith, but firstly, look at the Quran because Quran is being explained hadith is an explanation of the Quran, as we'll see with every Hadith prophesy Salam is the explainer of the Quran. He is kind of full of COBOL Quran as sent over minion Anisha logo on his character when he was asked about when she was asked about his character by Tabby she said his character was the Quran he said along taka Al Quran Have you not read the Quran to the tabby? Isa? Yes, I have he said well, his character is the Quran is exemplified. So with Hadith you take one
it is good to refer to the Quran which helps you understand and then get all the other reports have the same Hadith because they have words as we have with this one. extra words authentic ones. Of course you reject the weeklies even on the same deal because the chain will be weak. You may have this anything exactly the same words, but it comes with a chance you don't accept it and say well I've got it here so it must be right. No, yeah. Because it might be abnormal through a false chain. So chain is checking and then with that belief even though the words are here, correct, you throw that one away is rejected.
Okay, but other authentic one with slightly different wording as I showed you in Sahih Muslim Hollywood this one you take them on board to understand because you
It helps you understand with other words, the meaning of this one, then you take other Hadith on the same topic that you're deliberating on from other Sahaba with some details, which will give you an explanation of the one that you're dealing with again.
Now with all that then comes using he had, yeah, now understanding how it's been said,
how it's been said, What words have been used, what they have, do they have different meanings? Yeah. Is there an order in it? Is there any sunnah? Is there? Is there anything in it? Is it just a lesson? Is it just information? Yeah. Is there a choice in it? Is it haram in it? Is it a Corolla in it? All those things are then coming on from
Baraka Lo Fi comm we stopped that time Saturday, seven minutes, all right, but not drink the water too quick.
Any other questions on what we've covered today?
Don't try to profile Martin one. I
will cover it next time. I've got it there. I just mentioned that minor were made to for you to go and think about
and if you find those, I'll bring them to the next time.
There are some scholars who said but I'll show you next time.
Anything else? You can have a break?
