And after saying Salam to you all,
we ask Allah to accept from us our efforts to forgive us and to increases in useful knowledge and understanding and wisdom and to give us wide sustenance and Allah we are utterly dependent and to Him is our goal.
May Allah subhanaw taala help us during these difficult times.

Now that's not a keep us on started stalking him, malice watermakers of those who are considerate of others, merciful and forgiving to others. And may Allah protect us from the bad from this time, everything is in hand his hand is control. Hence we are as I said before, utterly dependent on him logMAR me
dear brothers and sisters, we are in the middle of tertiary or exposition of Hadith number 10. And as a reminder, I will read it out again in sha Allah.
This Sunday's Imam and no wizard by in
this number 10 As I said it's good if you have a copy of it in front of you
in Arabic and English so that you can see where I'm referring to this hadith as I mentioned last time was taken from Sahih Muslim. So read from the exact words in Sahih Muslim we have which have one or two tiny variation make no difference to the meaning. So as is mentioned, and Abby Herrera Taraji Allahu Anhu call caller su Lai sallallahu alayhi wa salam ala nurse in the Lucha Libre en la Yakubu in that point. We're in the LA emerald movement in Burma and one of the hill more saline for Carlota. Ana. Yeah, you helping.
You have no salumi not ye but you are a man who saw

Last time, we covered the first part of it here just to remind you its meaning or people. Surely Allah is good and accepts only that which is good. We deliberated on that in some detail last time what is type and opposite of which was cubbies which we deliberated on last time as well
publicized some goes on to say well in the law, I'm gonna I'm gonna be held mousseline surely Allah has ordered the believers as he has ordered and given the same orders to the messengers for Carlota Allah and the Prophet saw some quotes from a couple of iron from the Quran one makes mentioning the messengers and you're missing the believers in same kind of way. In the first one
So 23 Verse 51, Allah says all all you messengers Eat of the good things. Yeah and do righteous righteousness? Yeah.
Surely I am fully aware of all that you do. And then peroxide, some medicine second verse or you who believe referring to the believers now, eat all of you from the good things that I have provided you sustenance for you as sustenance and be grateful to Allah.
If it is, if you are those who truly worship worship Him alone,
then the Prophet also mentions
a person a man
and this man person utilises suffer
who's journeyed far as an outburst? disheveled and dusty. Look to you they eat a summer raising his hands to the heavens, Ya Rob er of saying, Oh Lord, oh Lord, and his food is haram his drink is haram, his clothing is haram and he is nourished in Haram. So how can this be answered?
So last time, as I said, we deliberate on the first part, and we look especially at what is type and what is hobbies? And how can Allama discussed as well.
And it's mentioned by Imam tofi, who did a shard of this as I mentioned last time of the 14th of November Rajib, similarly on Hi Tommy similarly.
So we may as we may said last time,
specially, well, majority of them Domitian, the same thing all these that are mentioned by the including zarabozo About
after missing the good amount of money they went and is how Allah ma viewed
things, any bear that are in good Amel in good deeds, how they need to be sincere lay down and they need to be wholesome and not mixed, for example, we mentioned shook, but if somebody
give something as sacrifice, or does anything good for the sake of Allah, and they do shirk with Allah, and include something or someone else in that, and Allah rejects that.
And of course, we can understand that because that's it, that's the case
of the worst kind of mixing and adjoining where the deed, whatever it is, is completely rejected by Allah subhanaw taala. And then we discussed as well about how much of a personal does the hedge, for example, Allah ma had a big discussion on stolen money, and they do the hatch. And I mentioned my views about that, and the views of the alumna, and about a person who's stolen and wearing stolen clothes and doing salah, and what the different views of that
lemma was that was about that. And what I also mentioned, my view was Because indeed, there was no direct authentic Elise to clarify the issue and therefore there was some variation and opinions amongst the Alana.
While talking about Salah in a stolen clause, the other thing that is mentioned by
these scholars, Imam tofi and Roger and Sarah both hate me as well. Is about the Salah of person who's a drunk Hummer. Yeah, somebody who's drank alcohol
and in this regard,
even Roger for example, cause some Hadith
which is what I want to initially deliberate on. As,
for example, he mentioned
Hadith, which is in under Santi and also collection of telemovie.
Where
it is mentioned that the prophesy Islam says man's cherry will come Yeah, sure button lamp took Bella who Tober to Aruba inner Subhan whoever drinks alcohol, yeah. Then there Tober is not accepted for 40 mornings or 40 days. This son is carries on and says and if he or she does Toba, then Allah forgives and accepts their Tober and if he goes back and does it again, then again the Toba is not
Keep for another 40 days, and if he does Toba and it carries on the Hadith to say until we get to a stage of in another version of the Hadith where it mentions that if the person does it a fourth time, then that Toba will not be accepted after that at all. And on the Day of Resurrection they will be given to drink from a river of pus that the dwellers of hellfire are given to drink from.
This one mentions it as Toba not been accepted. The most famous one that's used by many is the one which is saying that there's Salas not accepted and you may have heard of that. And this one is intermarry.
Man shareable 100 Lambie, Yoruba lamb Iacobelli, Lagu,
level Salatin arriba in Sabah and in Tada, tab Allahu La for in other lamb yoke, belly la
lamb up La La Oh La, la La, la who Salatin herba ina Saba Han for interpretable and this one carries on similarly
to what I mentioned, but here instead of saying Tober the wreath Masons whoever drinks alcohol, yeah, obviously these came a hadith as claimed after the prohibition of drinking alcohol, then the Salah is not accepted for 40 days. Yeah, but in this one, if they do Toba then Allah accepts their Tober Okay.
These are Hadith. Yeah, week wife. They are not authentic. Some scholars have took taken the Mozambicans as though they were authentic. But they are not not authentic. They are naive, some of them very weak, but you can't bring them together and bring out of it through the science of Hadith to say that there is anything it's accepted as a level of good and we can accept it. No, you can't do that with these ahaadeeth.
The one that actually mentioned that for prayer for 14 isn't accepted from the person who
drinks alcohol actually gives an exception as well. It says that if he does Toba, then Allah turns to him in accepting his Toba so that
then I that meaning and understanding would be fine because even if we accept it as an okay, Hadith, then that takes it out of the idea that
it would apply to somebody who continues to drink alcohol, has no remorse,
doesn't do Toba and then prays.
Yeah, so the Hadith given the idea that credits for 40 days will not be accepted. Nevertheless, even with that idea, this idea is contrary to the Quran and contrary to the Sunnah, and what we understand from a last word on how Allah so Allah is oft forgiving, most merciful, and does Toba for sinners again and again and again. Why do I say that? Because,
for example, the idea of Toba is throughout the Quran of Allah Fatah turning to
nevermind sinners, but disbelievers who, who repent Allah subhanho wa Taala forgives them.
And Allah is not about pharma especially He says, Yeah, you are levena and we'll learn what Abu Salah tawa and Tom so we're en tu su cara, Cara Allahu Taala MUMA on or you who believe
Do not come near to Salah while you are in a drunken state until and unless you know what you are saying. Okay? So in other words, come to Salah when you know what you are saying. So if a person's drank alcohol, and they are no longer in a state of drunkenness, then the Quran is saying come to Salah because now you know what you're saying. It's not saying don't come to South for 40 days is it is saying in other words come to Salah. And this of course I was revealed in a situation when when the drinking of alcohol was allowed at that time. But that's an indirect evidence of that people, even if they've drunk as haram that when they come out with a drunk is so stupid that they should
pray their Salah and actually
the idea of
of
Have
the prayer not been accepted for 40 days. And as I said, again, it goes against the very grain and evidences that we have. Because we have many a hadith, Allah subhanho wa Taala talking about sinners say that they keep committing sin, they come back and Allah forgives them and they keep committing and they do Toba and Allah forgives them. Many authentic saya de mentioned this attitude of Allah, about believers who are sinners, as long as they sincerely do Toba. Yeah.
And no limit has been put on that actually, in various Hadith, no limit has been put on that. And then we have a situation of course, that
saliva itself.
Saliva itself is Toba?
Because if I've done some sin, then actually I'm more in need of coming to the salon then. Then if I'm an all of us are sinners, yeah, in the case of drinking hammer is a big thing and clear thing. But all of us are sinning. Yeah, the idea is not the sinning person. In this case, the one who drinks alcohol shouldn't come to Salah. Then it goes on, for example, after Mason decently accepted, accepts it as authentic, then makes the contradictory remark. Because if if Allah's Messenger did say that the falafel 40 days isn't accepted, then why would somebody pray for 40 days, because you know that Allah is not going to accept this, then there's no need for you to pray. But as our Bozo
says, still, it is obligatory for this person to pray, otherwise, you'll be sinful. Hang on, but you already said that his prayer for 40 days is not accepted. So it's a complete contradiction, then you tell the person you should love to pray.
I hope you understand what I'm saying. It doesn't make sense.
Tell somebody pray for today. Still obligatory for you five times a day. But none of it will be accepted.
It's just, it's, it's nonsense. It doesn't make sense. Okay. And it fits with the idea that these Hadith are not authentic, they are weak, and then against the very principles of Islam, which comes in Quranic ayat and many authentic authorities.
Furthermore, we have an authentic hadith.
And more than one
about the person
who's brought before the Prophet saw someone this is Have you seen buhari, buhari and Muslim?
About
a person who's brought to the Prophet SAW Salem. And this person had already been punished the Sahaba say for drinking alcohol. All right, but in other words, he brought more than once, so he's brought again and prophesied some gives them the punishment of lashes.
And then, while he's being lash, one of the companions says,
says out aloud, what is the matter with him? May Allah humiliate him and the prophesy Some don't responded? As you have you seen Behati What did you say says lol Taku, our shape on the other Akiko. He's telling off the Sahaba Do you says, Do not make shake, do not help shake on against your brother, against your brother, even though he's a sinner. And in another version of the Hadith in Bukhari, when somebody curses this person from the Sahaba, the prophesied stone also said for Wallahi Ma, a link to enter all your paperwork or solar. I only know of him Yeah, don't do that. I this person loves Allah and His Messenger, even though he's drunk alcohol a few times and being
punished for it.
That's the time when the Prophet SAW so therefore, these are the three Mojari Muslim should now mention however, his prayer he should know will not be accepted for 40 days did the Prophet saw some say that in this authentic hadith? No, not at all. Not at all. Yeah.
So leaving the leaving Phil Tober for the person to do Toba.
Not only that, furthermore.
And this will be related to what we cover later on about this particular instance of the prophesized Sunday example the prophesy sum game because it helps her understand that as well.
If the problem is is that I'm saying
is in Hadith good see which will come across in the 14 days of unknowing. So I'm going to take only a part of it that Allah subhanaw taala says yeah EBRD in Netcom took the owner be Leila Wanda her were an outfit of the Luba Jamia for selfie Rooney Alfred lagoon
Hafiz officers, Allah says and this is a part of a longer Hadith all my saves on my servants your sin by day and by night all of you and I forgive all sins so seek forgiveness of me and I will surely forgive you
doesn't follow with that that don't pray for 40 days after you've sent or 30 days or 20 days otherwise not gonna be accepted does it
on the country, Salah is Tober Salah is asking forgiveness is it not brothers sisters from the tech arena to have him that you start with the salam you do at the end
the recitation that you are that we make in praising Allah and in even in in yet when we said or Abidjan Nemo ki masala to Amin to reality Oh my Lord make me and my children regular in SA stablishing
Windows yet Robina was a tumble to ah oh my our Lord accept our to our banana fieldly Oh my Lord, forgive me. Molly validate. Yeah. And my parents will move me Nina and the believers your way of formula is on the day that the
hisab or the accounting is taken the Day of Resurrection. So Salah is the Toba.
The encouragement for somebody who's done something like drink alcohol is to tell them come quickly as possible and do scheduled and told Africa Allah subhanho wa Taala so it's accepted, is it not? So it's and that's that is clearly what we understand from Quran and Sunnah authentic sunnah. So I personally and they
will have their thing and including my teacher and she had loads of V C's these are Hadith as life and not acceptable and also contradictory to the Quran and authentic hadith.
Furthermore, we have an authentic a good hubby's husband at least, which is mentioned by top Ronnie and also by Albay hockey in his Sinhala Cobra. That
the the angel on the left in the cyber shimmer
this hadith says in Sahiwal Shimelle Lian fabuleux column six Tessa
annual outdoor loft they're in tub.
We're in Canada has a
beautiful holidays. But the angel recording the bad deeds, lifts his pen, meaning his recording stops for six hours from a sending slave a slave sending servant
to give him opportunity to do Tober.
Or else it is then written down as one of his bad deeds. In other words, if he does Toba before the six hours according to this hadith, which is set by my teacher and medicine by obey hotkey as well, and my teacher says Hassan it's good Hadith as evidence. In other words, if within a day if we are quick to do Toba sincerely before Allah and part of that is our salah. Yeah, before the six hours then the deed the deed potentially isn't even written down. Unless like there's a face there already. Subhanallah and how does that counter with the claims being made by
even some of the some of the great scholars here? Even Roger a tofi Azhar also even a present day who makes contradictory remarks about still praying and yet the prayer has been rejected.
There is
there is one Hadith which talks about which is authentic is Sahih Muslim,
which mentions about salah not been accepted for 14 nights. And I think even with there there's a question mark, but it can be perhaps understood in a particular way. This one says the prophesies were utter Anwar often of either way a tin can hidden. First that Allahu unshaved lamp took Bella who Salah to Aruba, Aina Laila, for few I have seen men atta Karina and why you subdeacon who so called kevzara Be my own Zilla Allah Mohammed Raja who Abu Abu Dawood and that is authentic.
as well, whoever goes to a fortune teller and accepts what they say, yeah, they accept what they say. Then in the Hadith in Scrabble download, that's absolutely fine. Yeah. Then the prophesy Islam said they have disbelieved in coffin in what? Yeah. What has been set down on Mohammed. In other words, they've done Cofer of Islam and of the Quran and the message that prophesy some broad in the Hadith inside Muslim it says their prayer will not be accepted for 40 days. So even this a this is in Sahih Muslim. I think it does raise a question mark about the Hadith. And we've mentioned about some a Khalifa Sahih Muslim which are not Nestle authentic, although I don't clearly say that about
this one. This is linked with clearly about Cofer. If somebody how we can understand this is constantly going to a fortune teller, not just doing that, but accepting what the fortune teller tells them about their life without doing Tober. At the same time, they're praying. Yeah, praying, what the prophesy slump, saying we shouldn't get hung up on the 40 days, it means for a long period of time, if they carry on like that this is not going to be accepted. Because they haven't done Toba and reform from that they're still doing that. It's like somebody carries on praying five times a day, and at the same time they go to the Hindu temple and pray to the priest there or the statue.
How can they fill out be accepted? So the fortune teller is being placed in the position of a prophet of Allah Himself. So you can understand why this is much more serious. And it's to do with fundamentally about belief in man and puffer unlike the issue of drinking color. Yeah, so you can understand it. This is showing the severity, why the prophesies I mentioned is perhaps about the Salah, and say they mentioned the word cover. Yeah, they have done cover on what has been sent down Mohammed, because this has to do with the very foundation of belief and disbelief, mixing belief up, you taking others as prophets here, which in this case would be the fortune teller. That's just to
complete that idea.
In case you come across that
No.
So even rajuk and hate to me indicates it and hate me just copies and pastes for ever written really said in these in this regard. But two feet before him indicates part of what commemorative says it already was. The one covers this most comprehensively. So I'm going to cover that and then I'm going to pause and see what you think.
Before I contemplate further on this
okay.
Let me just find my self where we are. Yeah.
So
it will run he now is contemplating on where the prophesies and then mentioned the case of a person. Man here can mean a person. Yeah, it's just used in a language sense. Yeah. Then he means in the case of a man or a person, you will deal with stuff. Yeah. journeyed far
disabled and dusty, second aspect, raising his hands to the heavens. Third aspect, saying, oh, Lord, oh, Lord. So, you will not have says, From this, we get
four issues which are two links, which are linked with the etiquettes of making dua
of a believer. He's saying, this statement of the prophesy Islam
is showing us that we can take from them there are four etiquettes, of making to art to make the DUA acceptable. What are those four articles? First, he says, is the long journey. And he says even Roger, he says, going on a journey itself
is itself a basis for the law to be accepted. Why? Because the prophets Allah Salam said in a hadith which is in double gold, imagine I'm Timothy and and Timothy says this hadith is Hassan. So we accept that so good Hadith that the Prophet SAW Islam said as it were
All right reports. So I thought that worked in Worcester Jalbert last check a few hints that that work will bloom that will Mousavi, what that would actually do? What are the three kinds of two hours? Yeah, are answered, there is no doubt in that.
Hope which three times the dua of the one who is under tyranny and oppression of the had drunk done to them
by the meaning the dua of the traveler and the dua of the parent for their children. Yeah, this is important this last part, it says that with a worldly holiday. So you'll see some people translate this as saying dua of the father for his son. So they exclude the daughter and they exclude the mother.
This is not understanding yet culturally, when validly one a day, it's understood to mean parents and children. Yeah, even when that is being used. It's not specifying just the Father, for the Son and not for the mother for the daughter and the father for the daughter. And the mother for the son includes all of them. And it's very important to remember one thing. So here you notice that the dua of the traveler,
as
even Roger mentioned this good Hadith, and therefore, he says, Well, you know, in this case, the person in this, we're talking about traveling far. Yeah. So he's saying travel is a basis, an etiquette and a condition for greater,
greater chance of dua being accepted. We'll come back to that. Second, he says
he's saying being in a state that's been described here are being disassembled and dusty. Yeah, dissembled, and dusty and worn up close. Yeah. This is from the requirements requirements of the duar to be accepted.
Then he gives further evidence to bolster what he's saying. He says, Look at this hadith, which is Insightly Muslim, and also interesting that the prophesy Islam said, and he authentically said Rob cash. Uber, Z, Tim rain, mud phone bill, Edward Lowe. Oksana. Hola, hola, la ro.
Yeah, it probably started some say perhaps the person who's disheveled and dusty.
Only wearing too worn out pieces of garments. Yeah. And they are
turned away from the doors from people meaning that they have no value. Nobody cares for these people. Yeah. But Allah cares for them. In other words, yeah. Why? Because if they take an oath of doing something that taken off by Allah, they always fulfill that oath. That character is so good. Right. But he uses that as evidence to support that being in a state of disempowerment and justice and worn out clothes is conducive.
We've got the microphone on is conducive for the law to be answered.
Okay, now,
he also mentioned authentic hadith, which in telemovie and necessity and others, that the Prophet cites as a boss reports
came out
for
the salon of when it was a drought, which you did on a few occasions. And this one intermarry for example, he mentioned the bus that the Messenger of Allah Islam, yeah.
Came out motorbike villain, wearing his just normal, modest and worn out more turbulent, just ordinary clothes. Nothing special. Not like he used to come up for Joomla and eat. Okay, that's what it means. More toward the end. Yeah. Full of humility or motor debris. I'm imploring Allah. Yeah. We'll talk to everyone on this full of humility, and wearing clothes like that. And then he mentions about him basically, doing no football and praying the true root cause of a cycle is the scarf, pleading Allah for rain to come. So he mentioned that as something to support his view. Even Rajab, which as I said, is repeated by hate to me and zarabozo as well similarly, so he said that's the
second
etiquette week.
From this hadith and his statement of the prophesied slow, he said, the third ethic that we get is the necessity to raise the hands to the heavens. In making God that's part of etiquette of our being accepted. And here he mentioned, another Hadith,
which is,
can be husband or life, it's between the wife and husband.
And this is
where it says, And this is in Timothy, who also says Hassan, that it could be okay this hadith.
And he and you mentioned that
of one story.
Surely Allah, the Almighty, is
how do you say, shy and modest, and, and noble and generous? And if you're shy from a person raising their hands up to him, asking him that you return them with nothing, a feel if you're shy from doing from returning them with them being empty meaning in other words, he always answered it. That's the Hadith he mentioned.
But he goes on further to say the prophesy so we have evidence raised his hands.
At times, he raised his hands during the making dua, when it was a drought and we have authentic hadith in Bukhari Muslim when prophesied, some were doing Juma football and a man comes in during the drought season and say yo saw love pray for us to have rain because we are suffering and animals are dying sector to publicize them during the football listen to this man raised his hands open with what Allah subhanaw taala and similarly he asked him the following. Following Jemaine seems when it rains so much that some of the
some of the homes were damaged, etc. And the story goes on. I don't want to go into great detail of that, but we have a case where the prophet saw some raises his hands. So even Rajab tech support from that to try and show that this is part of an etiquette for the world to be accepted of raising hands. fourth condition, which is interesting, he says as well. He says that, to repeat, to repeatedly say yah, yah, Rob, oh, Lord, oh, Lord,
is a good etiquette and others have to average to be accepted. Yeah. He said, why you said because there's another Hadith, which is Mason by bizarre that the barbicide, some says, is a funnel abd arriba Mara, yeah, Rob? Yeah, all Allahu La baik and the Hadith carries on. If a slave says four times, oh, Lord, oh, Lord, oh, Lord, oh Lord, and Allah says here I am. Meaning as simply your call. This hadith is very weak. It is in a desert, Muslim, bizarre. It is not authentic.
And this is the kind of thing he mentioned in regards to this. And he said, Look at the Quran. Look at the many laws which begin with Rob Bonilla, in Urbana RTF in dunya, Robina, Allah to Zocalo, Ghana, and he uses that to bolster his opinion in this regard. So those are the four etiquettes that Ibn Rajab and they are repeated by Hitomi and Roberto in a similar fashion
in the guards what he gets from the picture that's being given by the officers about this man. No.
Time for critical thinking.
I don't know how many of the view online today but I'm gonna ask you.
You've got the Hadith and you've got the given the translation I've given what the public side what's what do some of you think in regards to what human regiments said?
Were you listening with critical ears? Or are you just taking it in?
Anybody have any comments to make on the comments? I've even
felt like shakes as I can. I found a lot
of just wanted to ask her Hey, I was amazed at the incident with the brother who is being lashed for drinking for perhaps a second time and somebody else commenting that when the Prophet saw someone said, do not help shaytan against your brother. Is that something that we could quote the prophets, Allah Salam on to assist ourselves and our children are brothers and sisters. Is it appropriate for us to do them? Absolutely. Absolutely. And the idea
that's not what I was getting at this time.
really focusing on the four etiquettes of dua the Ibn Rajab has drawn from this picture. That's a separate question. Most definitely, the idea is of How to Be merciful and forgiving, and not cursing to even sinners. Because actually, are we not all sinners? Yeah, yeah. And that's what prophesized some teaching. And also not to push people away towards shaytaan, saying, Oh, how do these Muslims behave towards me? Yeah, if we throw people out from the community, then where are we throwing them out to? It's like throwing them out to the wolves. It's like the sheep altogether and the throw one out. And the wolves are always waiting for the lonely shape in the woods, check on all those? Yeah,
absolutely. We do take big lesson from that is coming back. No problem. Sorry, just that. My question in relation to those four points was of particular note was I was amazed again about saying, Yeah, Rob. So is it considered to be desirable to beg from Allah by saying Yarra? Brr instead of saying, oh, Allah, Oh, Allah, or does it amount the same? Is it? That's a good question, isn't it? Because it was a good question, because even random seems to indicate to you that saying Yara is definitely preferred, isn't it? That's what he's indicating. And he's trying to draw that from this actual Hadith. My question is that these four points, if you look at these,
what do you think? And you've raised a good question. I'll come back to answer it in a moment. Anybody else? That
is a quick reflection, looking at
what you're trying to mention here about, are these the criteria to be accepted? And
it's very difficult to say that any of these criteria would mean obviously it will help but I won't say that. If we don't have these criteria, you're not lifting hands. You're not saying Rob then it's not going to be accepted. I always link it to zero to 468 when the three big sent a level of described about associating somebody with him about adultery and about murder or killing somebody and then he says if they
do Baba in the right manner emmalin Salah can lie to you, but in the last a year it has been replaced. So going to whether these are the criteria, I personally didn't feel that without having these criteria, you you will be rejected. Yeah, good. Good. Thank you see, A is very important to study critically, my brothers and sisters, I'm trying to show you this is the grid even Roger.
Now if I'm just
you know, in order to the sale, lucky to have okay, you know what that means? Any of you
just to literally so just follow whatever anybody says, and just without any thinking and as majority of our Imams, actually, I'm sad to say,
there are scholars out there Allah ma who think and reflect and question, even if it's even Roger, because even Roger isn't the Prophet salallahu Salam, even for the problem is are we trying to understand the peroxisome? Don't we?
Yeah, we don't always often we have to not take literally we try and understand what the problem is or something if it's authentic time. So don't be fooled that I'm studying the big Opus compendium of Ibn Rajab and after swallow everything even Rachel says and I've been critical before about some of the stuff that said as you well know. And this is part of what scholarship requires with evidence so just top of my head just say anything and wherever I feel like and I'll show you where the where the issues are in regards to these four criteria that I've already put forward. And I'll hate let me just copy and paste and Zaragoza two similarly goes down this Zaragoza mix contradictory relax what
I've said to you about the issue of the person drinking and their prayer not being accepted then saying that you have to still pray it's just become religion or become nonsensical Montek with that kind of approach. So we have to think critically. So let me take the first thing that he says before I go there when I look at this picture what is this hadith really about?
Yeah, that's the question. What's the message from this hadith the message from the Hadith actually yeah, when you read it all is the prophet seven tried to show you that the DUA
dua cannot be accepted from a person whose whose life is like this. The drink is around food is haram best is around, nourishing around where they're basically going being around left, right and center.
That's why the progress assalam saying how can there be answered? Which links will where he started from Allah is good and accepts only that which is good you have to strive to
to do the good. Okay, that's the overall picture we get from it. This hadith didn't really come to teach us etiquettes of making dua
that's not his purpose. Yeah. And you have to keep reading it overall and then you'll see that's actually not the purpose of the prophesied some nice thing, this person, okay. Now, the first thing in original said that
is it. It's teaching us the etiquette of the fact that being on a journey, and a long journey, especially makes it more likely at all be accepted. Okay, fair enough. Why, then I can agree with him to some extent doesn't mean to say that if I want my daughter to be accepted, I have to catch a plane every time for 600 miles here and 600 miles on the way back because I have to fulfill this particular table Rachel is saying
I don't think he means that anyway. But that's not the meaning here is so happens why he's saying if you're a journey that your daughter is more likely to be accepted because this hadith, which you mentioned is good Hadith, the about the DUA the musafir being accepted. Yeah, the optimal cipher being accepted and long journey
of course, makes it more likely why? Because prophets or Islam said and this is from me, in a hadith in Bukhari Muslim a sufferer good to atone Mila as that traveling is, is
is a piece of suffering. Traveling traveling meaning involves a bit of suffering always. And you know, I I mentioned that especially in regards to fasting in Ramadan and Salah during cancer, etc. People say oh, we travel now in luxury, etc. But even when I travel on an aeroplane that luckily I'm not an A camel nowadays.
For seven or eight hours. I'm absolutely shattered by the end of the journey. I don't know how you feel. Yeah, there's the the jet lag the travel itself is still tiring. Yeah. So there's still the element. People don't like to be honest in the state of travel all the time, because it has has that kind of thing. So
so we can get that idea from it.
And that's okay. But it's not a requirement of this to go. Before we make dua. That's certainly not the case.
When the prophesies them. So why does the publicize some nation? A man utilis SFX Asha Alba? Actually, those two things are linked with each other. They're not two separate things. Right? How? Because in the days of the Prophet sites, where people traveled by horse and camel
when they used to do a travel, especially long travel, which is obviously some specifically mentioning, what state would the person come back in? Or what state would the person arrive and when they got to the other side?
What do you think?
They were disheveled and dusty from sand and dust, etc. And the troubles is that right?
So the disheveled and Trent and dusty is linked with the long travel there's not two separate things. Yeah.
Why does the probably start some give that picture because the person generally on a travel they're known in the Quran, sunnah as robinus, Sabine revenue, Sabir the person of travel, and they're one of the people who are also eligible for what
Resaca
is that right? Brothers, sisters
zakah, because they're tempted to you run into, but the difficulty of trouble, they run into trouble is the last day where they lost their belongings, and they need help from people. So a person who's a traveler is like a needy person who needs Allah.
That's why province I'm describing. Yeah, that kind of picture of a traveler, dusty and disabled, who is in need of Allah, and you'd expect that that person to are therefore is going to be accepted? Yes.
So the provinces have given you that picture. The disabled and dusty is not for us now to go and emulate. So I'm sitting at home and I think, from Mr. Rogers, you can get the idea right. I need my daughter to be accepted. I need to go and blow dust on my head and become disheveled right before my boys accepted. That's that's and he bolsters it. The worst thing is he then tries to prove that that's the best way by mentioning that hadith which is authentic, saying
Perhaps the disabled dusty person with too worn out claws. Yeah, pushed away from people's doors but meaning Allah is pleased with that person. Because when they swear by Allah they fulfill what they swear by. Is that hadith telling you to become disheveled and dusty by the way, you answer
no, of course not. It's not easy.
So that residence to us is irrelevant is giving you a situation of a person who's poor.
They're already poor, nobody cares for them. They're like a beggar walking around, but they're a good person in their character and they love Allah. So Allah won't turn away from a turn them away from his door. That's not telling you to behave like that.
Now he comes to give me another example of the Prophet SAW Islam making dua coming out with simple clothes on full of humility authentic hadith again, for the dua of any specifies in the hadith of a drought situation. Okay.
It's true, he did that.
But he didn't come out disheveled and dusty didn't
Did you notice the leaf mess nothing about being disheveled and dusty. It didn't go dirt on his head and made his hair or messy and then came out did he just because he came out in the clothes that he didn't normally come out for either Joomla in either Joy where a special pork for example, here just come out with his normal simple claws on but the main thing is full of humility, etc. However, so that evidence is not relevant in the slightest to say that disabled and dusty is a state that we need to be in for the DUA to be accepted. Because further what about the rest of the time the province has a metal
Why did you have to find one Hadith which is only to do the dua for asking for water and rain in a drought situation to prophesy some make northern why any other time?
You see what I'm saying? Everybody with me? prophesized summit one day and night mid lot more than Aster is tech far. Yes 70 100 times a day more than anybody else did day and night with doing recurrent revenue asking Allah for two Ah, yeah.
Full of humility, no doubt. But that idea is not coming from pessaries dissembled in District justice there but missing the Prophet SAW Salem one blog during one instance is not an evidence is not relevant in the slightest because I could mention Yeah, all the other times proximal making blah He's not like that. Funnel mahalo Salam, but actually he's not even disheveled and dusty even in this instance.
Okay. So you will make some very critical on that second step and all you know disabled interesting.
The third thing raising your hands to the heavens, again he Mason's a few instances in which the probably son raise these hands. What can we say from that? We can counter those people who say that oh, you don't you shouldn't raise your hand to make dua because it's better
innovation we can counter those people with that with these evidences Can't We? Because we have evidence is where the prophets are some different situation lifted his hands to the hill as a mentor.
That's all we can say. But we don't say it is
a requirement for the law to be accepted that you raise your hand and then bring some very weak Hadith about, you know, about raising hands, etc. For it to be accepted. No, no. Do I can be done without raising hands, can it not? Yeah, we do our when we're sitting in a tight yard without raising our hands,
our whole Salah
so it can be done with or without, it's fine. It's not a requirement for the wire to be accepted. We have no evidence for that. And that is certainly not we don't use this as their evidence for that. Yeah. So just describing that an outward appearance, it looks as though this this person's imploring god. Yeah.
That picture overall but it's not teaching you unethical about to make dua to to Allah subhanho wa taala. Then the fourth thing as Zareen mentioned earlier on,
where does it say from the pocket sized cylinder, the only way to do is to be accepted from ALLAH and he caught it one of the difficulties very weak, not accepted at all. We have nothing else. Yeah. I mean, when we make dua to Allah subhanaw taala we don't need this hadith to tell us to say Yara do we?
What are you and I are going to say anyway? When are they going to say Yara are we gonna say Hola Hola, yah, Rob.
Are we going to say oh Allah? Oh my lord. Yeah. Oh my Allah. Well, of course you're going to say that.
We don't need Hadith to recommend this to say yah, yah, yah, and if we're going to say two or three times because we imploring Allah we're going to say it naturally, we're not going to say it four times, because we have no evidence where he has to be sent twice or four times. And if he can make sense to us in the Quran with Rapana what kind of evidence is that? Of course, those are going to begin with Rob banner, or they're gonna also that was saying Allah Houma
or they're not.
So whether ogbonna or Allahumma, we do not get from this hadith that the ethical of making the offer to be accepted. You have to say rabada so many times, absolutely not.
People realize what I'm saying.
Yes, this is critical. This is critical reading of what somebody is putting forward.
Not just blindly accepting what they're throwing up, because you need to look at what they're talking from. And what are they? What are these? What is the reasoning that is going on here?
Before just accepting it?
No,
I don't know what time it is. Again.
It is eight o'clock. So
I'm going to translate the last bit, but I'm going to leave the rest to do with dua because I'd like to cover some other aspects of dua for it to be accepted. But here prophesized I'm showing you a picture of a person who looks very needy. They're a traveler under imploring to God. But what did he say? He says, even though they're saying your rump, in other words, this is not sincere. That's what the Prophet is saying. When he says we're not Amma who haram. His food is haram. And his drink is haram. His clothing is haram. Then he said, Well, we will haram. That's interesting. And comes in Arabic in Arabic rhetoric. Was the or will haram means he's nourished overall in a haram manner.
But actually, that's when you look at it. First I thought to myself is well, he's already missing food and drinking clothing. So why does he need to make so good? Yeah, bills are wrong, because it means the same thing is nourished around money. But actually in Arabic. This is when the general generality of being around this comes after but the specifics, what we saw some could have just said, Well, gouvia bill Haram has been nourished in a haram manner and that would have covered all those other things. Yeah, his food drink and his clothing, would it not it would have. But the fact that he mentioned them individually is for us to focus on each one of those things before the
generosity is mentioned, is to give stress on the fact that this is the behavior of this person. Yeah.
Yeah, it's not the fact that he's done haram, by the way, link to what I've said earlier on whether to drink alcohol, or whether he's committed adultery or whether he's lied, or whether he's cheated someone or whether you know, I can carry on with all the list of sins that we all do, right?
Yeah. If that's the case, this would apply to all of us as well how can I do ask be answered when we do sin? Whereas the other days I mentioned says Allah saying you sin by them by night, and I forgive all sins. So seek forgiveness, I mean, I will forgive you. Yeah. But here if you took a very superficial view and misunderstood view, you think actually it is personal don't haram so do I cannot be accepted as nonsense. This person is persisting in doing haram with no reform and making large and
there's a massive difference.
massive difference
okay.
This we mustn't get from this idea that the person did her arm and therefore not was there we accepted that would be contrary to what Islam the Quran sunnah replete with evidences teaches us. Yeah.
1000s of evidences contrary to that idea. No point any center from doing any dua or doing Salado might as well pack our bags and go straight to * join shaitan if advised, and we're all sinners. Yeah. So it's not the fact that this person has just eaten haram. Right. And now they're making dua to do Toba. No, that's not what the prophesied some saying. For Dwyer not to be accepted. It must be that this person is persistent, carrying on in doing the firearms in their lives. That's what their life is about.
Living a life of haram. No intention of sincerity for change. Yeah.
And then making dua.
So
everybody with me
that's the picture of why cannot be answered
for such a person.
And next time inshallah
we'll go further into aspects because this is primarily this is about the artists that isn't it
and therefore I want to go a little bit more into
the issues surrounding the
when's the best time how's the best way to do our door being accepted or not being accepted? This is a picture of God not being accepted. We'll look at one or two other instances where it's mentioned about not being accepted. What kind of people this kind of person not sincere and that was they want to carry on doing the living the life of haram then no wonder the puppies so I'm hoping that will be answered a call a call you have the worst of Hollywood in the whole afford Rahim open to any questions
no questions.
Can't count me back. Luckily.
I have another question. If nobody else wants to ask in favor of me. I've already you've answered two of my questions wonderful.
Nobody else wants to ask for everyone.
Okay is the Hadith.
In dealing with the purity of Alesana Tala and the fact that Allah subhanaw taala actually insists on because he is pure, he made us to be pure. And then through our call it misguidance or misdemeanors decide to do things and or eat things and or conduct ourselves in an impure way. How Allah subhanaw taala is trying to purify us is that what I feel just in my own small way that it is that what the hadith is getting up?
We mentioned about this quite a bit last time. And what is the opposite good and wholesome? The first part of it
is that we obviously cannot be on the same level of Allah subhanaw taala impurity.
Yeah, Allah is pure, but from us what Allah wants Glory be to Him when He even sends us a Sherea and that's why he mentioned the messengers and the believers, when he sends the do's and don'ts. What he allows us to do and wants us to do by obligation is all that which is tightly woven, good and wholesome and beneficial for us to make us into good beginnings. Despite the faults and mistakes we will always have because we're human beings all that is implicit. Yeah, because we can never reach the level of perfection nowhere near Allah smarter we can't even reach the level of the prophets of Allah Salah so all that is in here and whatever he has forbidden this from doing and tell to stay
away from is opposite to good. Yeah, that's what we trust in his wisdom and his justice when he says do not drink this and do not eat this and do not do this. We believe that it is not a yam.
So Allah Sonata doesn't want us to be doing all that which is hobbies and haram and persist in it. And then then then at the same time be praying to him
while making no intention, or no effort to come out of the Haram
alright.
That's that's the overall picture you getting tired means that we want to live a type life. The person must try to implore Allah and want to stop the Haram because he's not in play, is not striving even to become prime
to become good, and live a wholesome life. Despite his outward acts, despite just the appearance, it's just outward. Yes, its outward is not for us to judge but the prophet of God is judging because he knows
that
appearances can be deceiving,
can they not?
And the warning is for you and me not for us to point the finger at others brothers and sisters, isn't it?
Yeah, don't think that just because you got jelibean on on religious clothes, as we call them nowadays that you're so saintly and pure, and the other word person
Just wearing jeans or tracksuit bottoms or a t shirt, that they're perhaps not so holy, you understand what I'm saying or appearances?
How many is that kind of idea in our head?
Many of us actually
thank you.
Yes, very good. Good. Good quickly is linking it with the the ion cert. No, we're talking about the listener playback. So I just wanted some some of your viewers on that time just
talked about coming.
Good people being for good people, and, and hobbies. That's talking because it's so new. It's so obviously talking about sexuality. And many aids in the ground talking about believers, men and women fire and marrying, marrying partners who are not sleeping around, not to take them as go girlfriends and boyfriends and not to married people who are who are not chaste. They don't protect them.
They're known as hobbies, hobbies for obese people who behaves sexually like that. They're not for good people and people who want to follow the wholesome way. Yeah.
That's not those IATA talking about.
Of course, of course, it's important to realize that people can, people can do wrong, they may have committed Zina, but if they do, Toba, they become chaste. Again, they are no longer called Zanny. That's very important to remember.
That only somebody who's cutting on
Yes, right. Someone Well, I can say
more of a statement than a question.
Early on when you mentioned the thing, the best thing I got from this session tonight is the fact that you say these weak Hadith contradictory to the spirits of the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet.
Over the years, I've heard so many statements. The things being Haram are the black and white RMR. Hello.
And after initially questioning myself, and thought to myself that doesn't seem to fit with the spirit of the Quran, or the Sunnah of the Prophet there are so many people going around quoting these things right sweeping statements like oh, all music is around
their house.
I'm sorry. Why is that because this Ed says you'll get wax
pour down your ears if you listen to music and things just like this. And it's just reiterated to me that I've been on the right course by thinking that along the way that you're going to test test everything
absolutely be critical of anything you hear or read beware of Chef Google beware of people throwing Hadith left right and center they haven't got a clue what they're actually mentioning or whether it's authentic or not and what even its interpretation is
doing the Hadith you mentioned about blacks being hot blacks being brought down the reality is very weak not from the profit side so then we don't accept it and prove not by just willy nilly I know it's not authentic. Well have you seen him said so.
Okay, and no doubt you will have been on the course of Islam and music the seminar that I
did a couple of years ago
Yeah, I think I think I think it's on it shouldn't be on YouTube I think it is good. I'll check but yeah, you can check I think is there
is I can't lie on everybody. Just
it was of benefit to us all please remember as in your dwells
any
any mistake is my mistake in the May Allah forgive me. And we will complete this hadith with contemplating on more aspects of the next time inshallah next session next to Tibet,
all being well.
Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah.
