Brothers and sisters.
And welcome to our
44th
thus, our 44th lesson of Usul Al Farafa,
the 3 fundamental principles
with our beloved sheikh, Sheikh Salim Al Amri.
Inshallah, we'll pass the mic and the screen
to the sheikh now for the sheikh to
begin.
My dear brothers and sisters in Islam, today's
class is
on the 3 fundamentals.
This beautiful book by the Sheikh Al
Muhammad.
The second fundamental,
knowing this is a recap now.
Knowing the religion of Islam
based on proofs.
So you know your deed. You know your
Islam
with Bruce. So
every single
article of faith,
you know,
the proof of it and the evidence
that supports it.
Knowing the meaning of Al Islam,
What type of shift?
So the meaning of this one
that you submit
to your Lord,
you submit to your Creator,
you fulfill
the conditions of La ilaha illallah, the second
conditions,
and you avoid the 10 nullifies of
the kaliman.
So you submit to Allah by
singling him out
and worship worshiping him alone
and offering all acts of worship only to
him.
That we submit
in total submission.
We obey him
And
we don't reject
any of his
divine
injunctions,
divine
instructions,
teaching.
And we absorb ourselves and avoid
committing
any form of shirk or that it's
major shirk or minor shirk or hidden shirk.
Then
based on the Hadith of Jibril, Alai Salam,
as you know,
who came
to teach the Muslims
the Deen as the prophet
said. This is Jibril came to teach you
your Deen.
So based on the Hadith of Jibril,
the Islam, the deen
can be
categorized
or classified
into 3 main categories.
K?
So this is the whole Deen,
Islam, Iman, and Ihsan.
And if you draw 3 circles,
bigger circle, Al Islam,
then another one inside the circle of Islam
is called Al Iman,
then another circle within the circle
of Al Iman called Al Ihsan,
which means
these are three levels.
You begin with the big one,
then you move to the second one,
then to the third one, the innermost one.
These are how you develop, and this how
you your partners.
You become a Muslim
by
declaring the Shahada
that I've a witness. There's no deity worthy
of worship, and
Mohammed is his messenger.
K? So this is the outward
confession.
Then how about the inward, the things inside
that you believe in all the issues
related to the unseen?
You believe in all the things that Allah
said.
That is where is the iman, the issues
related,
which up to the heart,
and the issues that should
be residing
firmly
in your heart.
And that is the hapida.
Hapida
is that sets
the set of beliefs
which you hold firmly in your heart. That's
why it's called the hapida, something tied, something
fixed firmly.
So the articles of faith have gone in
Iman, the pillars of Iman.
You believe in Allah, you believe in in
his messengers, you believe in
in the next day and next lives, and
you believe in the resurrection,
you believe in the destiny,
all the pillars of iman.
So that is the second circle.
Not that you say, just I
announce that I'm a Muslim,
and then you don't move from that circle
to the inner circle,
and you don't believe in the
articles of faith,
then that will
not make you,
a Muslim
in the real sense.
Yes.
We will treat you as a Muslim
because the issues of the imam are hidden.
We don't see them.
And if you are just doing the outward
acts and actions
while you don't believe in them,
then that what is called nifa or hypocrisy,
and the person is a hypocrite,
which mean, actually, he's a coward,
but we don't know
that he is
a because he is not disclosing and he's
not showing
that he is a.
K. So
the 2 Muslim,
he the outwards
acts
testify
to his Islam, to his
submission and submissiveness
and obedience to Allah, and also what he
has in his or her heart also
testifies
to that.
And then
the most inner circle, and that is the
the highest level,
which is El Hassan.
And here, I would like to draw your
attention
that there is a
a known ruling or aid that says
about men in the Arabic language there because
the Arabic language is so rich.
So
so much so that they said the
etymologists and grammarians,
no two words are really
synonymous.
There are
very minute differences
between two words.
K. For example,
Nagara,
Absala. You see?
You don't find this in English.
Nagala,
which means to look. Absala,
the same thing, to see,
to have a look at something.
To stare at something.
To see with part of your art.
So each word
has
a unique
meaning,
and there is very nuisance,
very, very, very subtle
and manual difference.
So if you
try to them,
draw them graphically,
you will find between the two meanings
an area of intersection
area of intersection,
2 circles in intersect each other.
That is the common.
Okay? For example,
There is an intersection, which means to visualize
and to see someone.
But at the same time, there are small
differences.
So that's why they
say
These words,
When they are together,
then each word has a unique meaning.
They are not synonymous when they are mentioned
simultaneously
together in the text.
When they are mentioned together,
here, each one has its unique meaning.
If they
when they are mentioned together,
the meaning will be different.
When the
if they are separated,
then.
What does it mean?
If one of them, these two words,
is mentioned
by itself individually,
independently,
then it conveys the meaning of the other
word.
When one of them is mentioned,
then it includes the meaning of the other.
But if they are together mentioned simultaneously,
then each one has each there's a unique
meaning for it.
And now let's take an example.
Islam and iman.
Islam and iman.
If the 2 are mentioned together,
as in the Hadith of Jibreel, alayhis salam,
Then al Islam talks about the outward
acts and actions, the things that we can
see, the salah, the siyam,
the zakah,
the Hajj, the things are that are visible
to us.
And imam refers to the issues that are
related to the heart.
This is when they are mentioned together
together.
But if Islam is mentioned alone,
then it covers the iman.
If iman is mentioned alone, it covers the
Islam.
But if they are together,
then each one conveys a unique
meaning.
K? This is the beauty of the Arabic
language.
That's why
without learning Arabic,
one's knowledge will remain superficial.
So, yeah, I hope that you understand this
side, this ruling,
this rule.
Now
So here,
Allah
is saying that the Arab,
the Bedouin, the nomadic tribes,
they said,
we believed.
Remember
the 3 circles.
Iman is a higher level
than the level of an Islam. Islam, you
just submit
apparently.
Iman is
submitting,
plus, the belief
in the heart.
So here,
the nomadic type say or the say,
we believe.
Allah said no.
You
haven't.
The iman hasn't settled.
The iman hasn't touched
your inner
You can claim and you say, yeah. Apparently,
we'll submit. But the the iman hasn't
entered
and penetrated
your entire being.
So here I wanna differentiate it
between the Islam
and the Imran.
Also, Allah, when he talked about
the house
of
Lot
remember, in the house of Lot, the the
wife of Lot, and she is not mutmina,
pretending she is a Muslima
apparently.
So Allah said
that we delivered
from that household
the believers.
The believers, we delivered them. We saved them.
And we have not found in that household
that household of the Muslimeen.
So he described the household
as Muslims
because of the wife of Ruth.
But when he deliver, he delivered only the
mumineen, the believers, and not the wife of
Lut.
So we have to keep this in mind
and understand. But if one word is mentioned
by itself,
then it covers the other. For
example,
So when the call of prayer for Friday
prayer
is chanted, is made, the Adan is made,
that's how we learn the krillah,
push and trace to the salah.
Here, Allah is
adjusting the.
Can we say,
here, Allah is only adjusting
the not the
Muslim?
Yeah.
Remember, is the.
When one word is mentioned, it covers the
other.
So here, all the Muslims are
invited to come to the
to the salah, the men.
Right? So so whenever you are reading,
whether in the Quran or in the Hadith,
and one word is mentioned, Islam or imam,
al Musilamunah, 1 Musilimat,
It covers
Al Mu'ini,
1
Mu'ini,
1 Mu'ini, it covers the Muslimeen and the
Muslimeen, etcetera.
I hope this is clear to everyone.
So this can be divided
as the shah says into 3 levels as
and Islam, and Iman, and Aleksan. Aleksan
is the highest level,
and that is when you worship Allah as
if you are seeing him. Though you are
not seeing him, he sees you. And this
is the
the highest level that the Muslim
should strive
to reach.
So you develop, you move
from the outward submission
and the inner belief
in all these issues
then to the implementation
and applying them so that you reach the
Ihsan
where you worship Allah
as if Allah
as if you are seeing Allah. Though Allah
you are not seeing him, he is seeing
you.
So this is where you
feel
the witness
the witness,
the Maria
that Allah is with you
as if you are seeing Allah.
You do things
when you are alone
and the shaitan whispers into your ears
and tries to tell you,
now you are alone. Say, no. I'm not
alone.
I'm not alone. Allah with
me.
Allah with me.
And that feeling,
when you live in the of Allah
and you feel it
that your lord is with you,
that's what
lifts up and
boost your iman
and sensing your
of
Allah because Allah is with me. You feel
it. Allahumma'i.
I'm with Allah.
And that's how the prophet
consulted
Sayna Abu Bakr in the cave. Sayna
Abu Bakr
is talking
facts that they are at the mouth of
the cave.
If one of them just looks at his
feet,
he will spot us. He will see us
because you can't you they are inside, and
they're seeing their feet.
So if someone just peeps in
and lowers his
head, he will be able
to see us.
So here,
the pop star said, let that oh, fuck.
Let
that
We are in his witness.
We are with Allah.
So Allah will not make them able to
see us.
So this is
this is
when you reach that level.
You have this Imam.
Allah is with me.
The same thing Sayyidina Musa Alaihi Salam.
When Usa'id are talking facts,
like Abu Bakr talks facts
of the Allah Muhammad.
So when Usa'id now attacked,
see in front of them, troops
behind.
The result is known inevitable
capturing
and arresting.
So
Now the day is vacant. They are able
to see each other, see in front,
tubes of the pharaoh behind.
They're going to capture us.
Facts.
Musa said no.
Why?
Because he's not talking by the
earthly logic.
He's talking from a man perspective.
Totally different.
Not material
outlook. No. No. No. No. No.
No.
He's
talking differently.
He's telling
the children of Israel, no.
The pharaoh and his troops will not be
able to catch us.
Why?
You you don't know this?
I have my love in my sight.
I have my Lord with me,
so don't worry.
So he's going to guide me.
And immediately the guy just
came. Strike the sea
with your style
with your,
staff with your stick.
And, you know, the Sisbet.
So the Muslim has to
strive and work hard
to reach this level,
the level of Al Ihsan.
Will you worship Allah
as if as if you are seeing him?
The Sahaba, they reached that level.
So when the pops up 7 is talking
to them,
describing to them,
the journal,
they feel they are already there inside
it. Their ima, they feel that they are
there.
So that's why nothing
shook their imam.
Nothing.
And that's why no one's imam can reach
the level of the imam of the Sahara.
The Ima
as firm as the mountains,
because that's how the prophet
worked on them.
Now these three
aspects of the deen,
Al Islam,
Al Imaan, Al Eshan.
The are saying
is to reach the level of Alaihsan.
We tell them,
with all due respect, don't use the word
sugien because it is problematic.
It's serious.
It has it gives
other notions.
It gives it has other connotations,
the other things associated with it
because the word sudism or mysticism
exist in other beliefs.
It is never used
in the
literature of Islam
in the Sunnah, neither in the Quran.
It's never mentioned in the Quran or in
the Sunnah of the prophet.
It was not known in the 1st generation
and the second.
It appeared only in
later on.
And the first ones who called themselves Suvis,
they were not from Anasudna,
as you know.
So don't call it a sign because
when we study,
we find that there are different categories and
different types.
So if you are saying
we are talking about the correct
the real
that is the level of, then, okay, we
are not a need to use that terminology.
Okay. Use the word Aleksam
as the Pabstas Haselan described it.
Okay?
And really
work hard
to reach that level of Aleksam through the
Kitab and Sunnah,
not through
invented ways and techniques
and beat out
and teach all these things to your disciples,
murid, and you claim that this is the
way that will take you to Allah and
make you reach the level of Alikhsa.
You can reach the level of Alixa if
you follow the footsteps
of the prophet sallahu alaihi wa sallam.
And we have the Quran
and the Sunnah, and that is enough for
us for the Tasqiyah
of the Rooh, the Taskeer of the Nas.
If the Quran and the Sunnah
are not sufficient
to purify your soul,
may your soul
never be purified
as Imam Ahmed said.
If the Quran and sunnah not sufficient
for such a person,
then may his soul
never be purified.
So the kitab and the sunnah, enough
for us.
So leave all these
innovations
and the methods that you have concocted
and invented.
Follow the footsteps of the prophet
and his companions.
Allah
has taught us
the way and one of the missions of
the prophet,
that the prophet
teaches them the Quran
among the
the task of the prophet He teach them
the book,
Kitab,
and Hikma, a Sunnah,
and Tasqiyah.
He purifies them.
He purifies them.
And as you know,
when a group of the Sahaba
came to the household of the and
they asked the wives of the
about the of
the
and the acts of worship,
the extra acts of worship and
prayers that he does atone.
And they were told
he plays
and sleeps
never exceeded.
So when they were told,
they thought that a cave.
Though these are they
appear
little
acts,
little from
the public.
A few acts and few actions and fury
acts of virtue from the prophet's opinion
because already Allah forgave him
his sins.
But for
us, we have to do more than him
because
our sins are not forgiven.
So we have to do more than him,
So much so that some just say,
I'm not going to get married.
And now some narrations, they said,
we are going to castrate ourselves.
We are going to amputate
our organs
so that we'll not have feeling for women.
Other, they say,
I will fast,
and they will not break my fast.
Another
says,
I'll pray the whole night.
So when the news reached the prophet,
he faint.
This is the seed
of going astray.
This is the beginning of deviation.
If it is not addressed immediately,
it will
grow bigger.
So immediately,
you nibble in the bag.
K? This has to be adjust immediately.
So we
call the Muslims to the Masjid,
and the prophet would do that only
if there is a serious matter.
And he climbed D'Myba and praised Allah, and
then he said,
I am
the most fearful person among you who fears
Allah.
I feel Allah more than anyone of you.
No one can be more pious and righteous
than myself.
Yet
I pray
and I sleep.
I pray and I sleep.
I marry women.
I fast and
I take my fast.
And whoever is not content and satisfied
with my way is not for me.
If my way is not sufficient for you,
you are not for me.
Why the prophet was
so harsh on them?
Because he faked.
This is the beginning of
deviation,
and that's how
the previous
nations
deviated
from the true teachings
of their prophets
by the
going to
extremes.
Imagine someone
plays the whole night.
Imagine the whole Umma,
the whole night that they are playing.
What will happen to the Muslims?
They will die.
Why?
Who will work during the day? No one.
Everyone's sleeping.
Everyone is sleeping.
Who will cultivate the land?
Who will cultivate it?
Who will produce food?
Who will harvest it?
So the activities
the whole activities
of life will become will come to
a standstill.
You play the whole night.
During the day, you will sleep.
As many Muslims in Ramadan,
the whole night they're awake. When they go
to the office,
they sleep.
They not they sleep.
If someone comes to them, ask them to
finish
certain
documents,
they say,
That means
come after Ramadan.
And they think that they are doing rebada.
No. They are sinning.
They are
sinful. The money they earn is haram.
It is better for you, Abraham,
Even if you don't bring the talaweeh,
just the 5 pairs,
but you do your duty
and earn halal.
That's how
the he visualized that.
He visualized that.
Oh,
those who said we will not marry
women. What will happen?
No children. What will happen? Finish the human
race.
Muslims
will come. They will not exist anymore.
And the pastor said he wants us to
multiply,
not to have birth control
as many Muslims today.
One child, 2, 2 maximum, boy and girl,
and they apply all the
principles of management,
quantity,
not quality, all that nonsense.
And they say, you know, cost of life
as if they are the
as if they are the provider.
So the the prophet
wants us to multiply,
to have more children
so that he can
feel proud about us on the day of
resurrection.
So marry those women who are prolific
will get more children.
And those of loving nature
because I want
you to outnumber the other nations
on the day of resurrection.
Yet
some of the companions are saying, we will
not
get married.
All those who said we will fast, I
will not make our fast.
So that's why the was
very tough with them.
He who is not
satisfied and happy with my way, he's not
from me.
So
you reached the level of by
following
what Allah said and what the prophet, sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam, said.
That is the way.
Any other way
leads to the hellfire,
leads to the hellfire.
The prophet
in the authentic hadith,
he drew the straight line
and then short lines on both sides,
and then here, like,
This is my safe path. Follow it, and
do not follow the
the shortcut,
which will take you away, mislead you, take
you astray.
And he said, this is the way of
salvation. This is the way that will take
you to the Jannah.
The straight,
the long one.
Short ones
will take you to the hellfire.
At the Subullah,
these are the ways of misguidance.
At the entrance of each one is a
shifaan
calling to *.
So the prophet
mentioned the way of salvation and the way
that will
of deliverance and the way of reaching the
general one
path
state
alone,
not as
the Soviets mentioned in
the literatures and their works.
Say
it? The ways of salvation,
the ways
of being delivered,
the ways of reaching the Jannah,
as many
as the *
of mankind.
The prophet,
he draws that line. They drew a circle.
And they said the center of the circle
is the haqq, the truth. And from
any palm
point on the
circumference,
you can reach
the
center. That's why
the ways
to the half as many as the *
of mankind.
So be careful, my dear brothers and sisters.
At Hassan,
you reach the level of Hassan through the
kitab
and the sunnah of the prophet
The
author
said,
so Islam
or the level of Islam.
The pillars of Islam, as you know, there
are 5 pillars.
So the testimony
that there's no deity with the voice of
Raflatullah,
and Mohammed
is the messenger of Allah.
And you should know the meaning of La
ilaha illa Allah,
and you know the
conditions of La ilaha illa Allah, the seven
conditions
which are
the n, knowledge,
yakin,
certainty,
kabul,
acceptance,
intiad,
submission,
ekhlas,
sincerity,
truthfulness,
and love. So these seven conditions,
you should fulfill them and know that these
are the conditions of.
And then Muhammad Rasulullah
and the meaning of it, la mataboo aabi
hapton illa Muhammad SAWA SAWA SAWA. No one
is worthy
to be followed except Muhammad SAWA SAWA.
And that is known as Tawhid al Mutaba
or unity
of fellowship.
So you follow
the way of the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi wa
Salam
and his sunnah,
whether
the sunnah, which is
his sayings or his actions
or his approvals
or
the things that
he did not do.
So the sunnah of the are
for types.
Sunnah.
Is saying most of the have
fallen fallen under this category.
It's actions, the things that he did,
play as you have seen me play,
learn from me your rituals,
approvals,
things happened
in front of him and he kept quiet,
like eating the bug, the type of
peptides,
had it added in front of him and
he didn't say anything, though he didn't like
it.
Like, also,
which
is called Al Azel.
As the Sahaba Jabal said,
We used to practice
the and
which
means
the the couple,
the man,
ejaculates
outside
in order not to,
have,
pregnancy,
divide that.
So they were practicing that, the Sahaba,
and they were not told not
they were not told to stop it.
So that was an approval.
All the things that happened
during his lifetime, and he did not
do anything about that. For example,
he did not make a dam for the
eclipse prayer,
though it happened during his lifetime, and he
played the eclipse prayer whether it is solar
or lunar.
He did not make adaal
also for the Eid,
so
in spite of the need.
So the sunnah is not to make adaal
neither for the Eid nor for the eclipse
pair. So the things he did is sunnah,
and the things he didn't do also is
sunnah.
So that's the meaning of Muhammad
Rasulullah.
Then the second, as you know, establishing
the prayer, and the prayer is one of
the pillars of Islam, and it is Hamud
al Islam.
You know, if you are
constructing
a tent,
there is a column, there is a pillar
in the middle,
and others at the side
to support the the tent.
But the most important one is this one
in the middle.
If it is knocked down, if it is
removed,
the tent collapses.
So the payer is armed in Islam.
It's that important pillar.
So that's why the one who lives the
salah is not a Muslim
is not a Muslim.
K? And this the Sahaba agreed upon unanimously.
K?
Nothing the Sahaba considered
as kufar
from the actions
of the sins people do
apart from the shirk
except the salah.
So your prayers,
your salah,
you should not see them lightly.
Allah, he
prescribed the salah in heaven,
not like other
actions and other teachings and other obligations
in heaven. He took his prophet to heaven,
as you know.
And there,
was given
to the prophet
salah wasalam.
So the salah
is Amud Ad Deen.
The last words
came from the mouth of the prophet when
he was breathing and dropped.
Payers. You're salah. You're prayers.
And what your right hand
says. What did he mean by
that? Take care of your salah
and take care of those
whom
your right hand possess, which are the servants,
the slaves.
Feed them justly
and fairly
according
to the teaching of Islam, and do not
overburden them or impose on them something
beyond their capacities.
So the salaam my dear brothers and sisters.
The salaam you don't believe it, and then
no
matter what circumstance
You're paying.
You don't leave your salah.
Don't you know
there are different types and different ways and
manners
in the books of fiqh about the salah?
Even in the battlefield,
imagine
the Mujahideen
in the battlefield,
they don't leave the salah.
They are fighting.
They are moving. They are shooting,
and he's in the salah. While he is
shooting,
he's in the salah.
You don't leave the salah.
You pray standing, if you cannot sitting, if
you cannot lie.
As long as you have your sanity,
you don't leave the sunnah.
You cannot use water.
You cannot use there is no water. There
is no earth,
or it is impossible
to use neither water
nor earth.
Someone who's burnt
all over,
and
you cannot
come near to him.
Should he leave the Salahi or she? No.
You pray.
With our bahala, yes, you pray.
Because this is the best you can do,
and Allah will not overburden you.
Fear Allah to the best of your ability.
You are sick,
and the catheter
is in the organ,
and urine is flowing.
Don't leave the solar.
Play in that shit like light.
So you never leave your place.
Never.
Never.
Because one who doesn't play,
the prophet said,
So dividing line, the Islam and apostasy between
Islam and cover is the prayer.
You leave the prayer, finish.
Your husband doesn't pray? Tell him, pray.
Are you a nut?
Goodbye.
I cannot live with you.
Yes.
Your wife doesn't pray. Pay. I will not.
Goodbye.
No jokes.
Allah
says,
The angels, they rebuke
and reprimand
those in the
Hellfire. What brought you here?
The people of Hellfire, they said, we were
not praying. That's why we are here
because we were not
praying.
Woe to those, Musalin,
those who pray,
but
they delay their prayers. They pray, but they
delay them.
Woe to them.
Extreme punishment for them in their fire.
Though they use they
they were paid, but
they would delay their prayers. How about those
who do not pay at all? At
all.
So that's why
the prophet
said,
You command your children to pray
when they reach the age of 7 because
that is how they would that age, normally,
they will start to
know things,
to use discretion.
They know that. They know this is wrong,
that is right.
So we teach them.
And that to reach that age, we command
them. We teach them before that. But when
they reach the age of 7, we command
them to pay.
From 72 years to 9,
training them,
reminding them.
Come,
play next to me.
The mother does the same
with that with the children, the father does
the same.
They reach mine now and they do not
pray, we discipline them.
You smack them.
K?
So now a child starts praying at the
age of 7,
He reaches the age of puberty, normally 15
years.
About
8 years,
now the salah is part of his life
part of his life.
He will not take the sword, Insha'Allah.
Don't say
he's still young.
Later on he will
start paying.
You will cry and you will shed
tears.
K?
Because
now he's a man.
He's taller than you.
He can't do anything.
He's taller than you as a mother.
When you are talking to her, you do
like this.
She's there.
And you are shouting,
and then you start crying.
It's too late.
It's too late.
As one of the said,
it is like a plant,
small plant.
If it went like this, immediately, you can
bring it back by
putting next to it
a lot
of piece of wood and tie it around
against
it
next to it
with a piece of wire,
then the plant will go straight.
But if you leave it,
and now it is that thick,
the trunk of the tree
tries to bring it,
you'll break
it. The same thing with the child.
So the second pillar is a salah,
establishing
the prayer.
Is
you pray
with the khushu,
the concentration.
You prepare yourself before the salah.
You fill you may you fulfill the
and the
and
the and the
of the salah, everything. That is the meaning
of
the. And you need to learn
the related
and the rulings related
to your prayers
so that you if you make a mistake,
how to
rectify it. Then
they tell jaka'ah,
giving the jaka'ah.
And as you know, this is one of
the pillars of Islam.
And this is the pragmatic
solution
Islam gave
and came with to solve
the issue of
poverty,
taking
from the
those rich
2.5%
and giving it to the poor.
Over time,
in the history of Islam,
they did not find anyone to give them
the Zakah.
And today, if the Zakah is taken from
all the Muslims
who are rich,
you will never find any poor Muslim. You'll
never.
And the Zakah
can be taken
from those who are not paying the zakah
by force
by force.
The Islamic State
can force the people to give the zakah.
And those who are not paying,
they will pay the zakah, and they can
confiscate
as the the prophet
said, as a punishment to them, half of
their wealth.
So next year, they will come immediately
and give the zakah.
So this is how Islam solved the problem
of profiting.
During the reign of Sayyidina
Ahmadre
Al Aziz,
the Zakat collectors
wrote to him.
We didn't find
receivers.
We didn't find people
who are eligible for it. Everyone is saying,
I'm not eligible for it.
So he
told
them, buy slaves
and set them free.
They say we did that.
Count those who are not married,
boys and girls, and get them married. They
said we did that,
but the money
is still.
Buy food and
scatter it
on places where the birds can
live on,
and the places where there are birds.
That's what happened.
The Zakat.
Then,
say I'm Ramadan,
fasting Ramadan.
It's only 1 month a year.
And as you know,
the
wisdom behind
imposing
and prescribing
fasting
is to
have the taqwa.
Perhaps that you will attain
and achieve
or become
righteous, pious.
So that's the objective
of the fasting.
That
all your limbs they abstain because
fasting means abstinence, to abstain
from eating and drinking and shameful deeds
and talking vulgar
and all sense
from dawn
to sunset.
It's not just you leave the food
and drink
and you carry on watching haram and listening
to the haram and backbiting and floundering, etcetera.
And finally, the 5th pillar
is the Hajj
Hajj
to the house of Allah
once in one's lifetime.
Once.
More than that is nothing.
What is fun is once
upon both men and women
when they reach the age of puberty.
And there are conditions. You have to be
a Muslim.
You have to be,
physically
fit.
You're not sick. You're not ill.
K? You are sane. You haven't lost your
sanity.
You are able financially.
You must apply this and
to pay for your expenses,
and
the way
is safe.
Maybe all the things you have,
but the way to Mecca
is not safe.
In the past, it was not safe.
Pilgrims, they
and their way they are killed in their
ways, whether they are coming by ships,
the,
the,
what do you call them?
The
I forgot the
the name.
So criminals,
okay,
they attack them
and they confiscate everything.
The pirates. Yes.
The pirates.
Or if they are by land,
highway robbers,
they attack them,
confiscate them, they will take everything and kill
some of them.
So if the way is not safe,
then you are exempted from the hunt.
And in top of this one, woman is
the Mahalam
Mahalam.
If a woman doesn't have a Mahalam,
then she is exempted
from the Hajj, and she will not be
held accountable
before
Allah has the wajan.
May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
increase our knowledge in the Deen and may
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless us with the
beneficial knowledge
and the righteous Hamal, Insha'Allah.
And may Allah
keep us to remain and set far from
this beautiful deen until we meet Allah,
and he is pleased with all of us.
And may Allah
forgive us
our faults and mistakes and ignorance.
And may Allah
unite our ummah in the heart and unite
our hearts in the heart, Annie.
And may Allah
reward all of you, my dear brothers and
sisters, immensely for your dedication
and your patience
and your patience and attendance.
We'll now move to the question and answer
session.
Brothers and sisters, please send in your questions
if you have them. Inshallah, send them in
fast so we can answer them.
And, we will begin with some of them
that we have already received.
Assalamu alaikum Sheikh. Do you recommend the books
compiled by Mohammed Mahdi Al Sharif and Mohammed
ibn Khalifa Al Tamimi
for learning about Allah's most beautiful names and
attributes?
I don't know that.
Number 2. Okay. I don't know. But what
I can recommend, I recommend
the
This one.
Okay. Usmanullah al Husna
by doctor Ramasur Eiman al Ashkar.
Okay? And there is another book.
An Nahil Asna, Fishaar Asna Allah and Harsna.
And there are another book by Imam Abu
Nupayin. So there are
many books there. Very good.
Okay?
Get them and read them.
This one is very beautiful by Sheikh Ahmed
Soleiman Laskar,
and try to
read all his series and download it. It
is free there on the net.
Next.
Okay. So next question inshallah.
If a person praying alone says
late in prayer and
late when rising
from sujood,
then should the prayer be repeated
even if the person prayed Sujood or Sujood?
Again, again, repeat the question. What did he
do when he If a person praying alone
says
late
in prayer. What do you mean late in
prayer?
I'm not too sure this question from the
questioner.
I don't know what that means, Sheikh. How
they can make it late. I'm not too
sure. And then they write,
prayer.
What do you mean later prayer? Ask the
question to clarify to us.
Yeah.
So questioner, you can clarify this, question. What
do you mean by late in prayer?
What do you mean by late in prayer
if the person is praying alone?
What does late mean?
Number 3, if a woman notices after prayer
a little bit of her chin was showing
and one of her socks had the small
stitches that was worn out,
which showed part of her top feet,
then should she repeat the prayer? No need.
We have accepted.
Okay.
Next question.
What about those people who pray 3 times
a day or sometimes five times
a
day?
Anyone
who
believes,
the
prayers?
Okay.
So
the
hadith
is
clear.
Why he is leaving
the, the other 2 prayers?
He doesn't believe in that?
Salah,
it's not a joke, my dear brothers and
sisters.
K?
And life is short.
Death around the corner.
Anytime,
the angel of death will visit us.
Those who do not pray,
they will be in bad shape.
Next,
Allah guide all of us, army.
I mean, the next question,
In regards to extremism,
we
are aware that there are extreme Sufis.
Are there the same
in Salafis,
such as extreme extreme Salafis. Is there any
existence of that?
Okay.
Let us stick to the
the correct terminology.
Get used to this.
In the deen is unacceptable
from anyone.
Anyone.
Irrespective
of the name and the label. Anyone.
Who is
unacceptable
is halal.
The prophet said,
And the Hadith I mentioned today is that
is how the prophet
compacted a hulu.
Sahaba. Okay? Those are Sahaba.
He did not accept hulu and extremism from
them
because that is going to extreme.
So from Sahaba has not accepted.
K?
So is there
in the Jama'at,
in the groups,
organizations
groups organization.
There is,
and it is.
Whether you call yourself Salafi, whether you call
yourself
Ewani, whether you call yourself whatever,
or or,
what type of names.
Is
unacceptable
in Islam in the deed.
It is prohibited.
So we that's why
our criterion
is the Quran, the guitar, and the sunnah.
Anyone,
I'm saying, anyone
goes against that criterion.
Sorry.
What you are doing is not correct.
What you are doing is not correct. That's
what
you
don't you see?
Hulu happens
during the height.
Because what does it mean,
to go to the cross the border?
The tells
you this,
you go a bit more than beyond that.
That's the.
So that's why the prophet said,
Avoid. Avoid
going to extremes
because this what happened to the nations before
you.
What made the Christians
worship Christ Alisa,
They raised him above his level
as a human being
till they attributed
divinity to him.
That's why the prophet said,
do not go to the extreme. Do not
overpraise
me.
Venerate me.
In the same way,
the Christians overpays
Isa alaihis salaam, son of Mehdi.
I am a servant of Allah.
Say
Abdullah Rasoolah.
Say Allah's servant
and his messenger.
And that's how the Quran, Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala, plays the prophet
by giving him this title,
Who took
his Abd, his servant,
at night
from the sacred mosque to the father's mosque.
Sons.
And when the servant of Allah stood up
so this how
we discard the prophet.
He is avid,
servant of Allah.
So this,
Abdullah,
stops us from going to extreme,
as many of the Soviets, they go to
extreme,
as I'm going to mention. And
Rasoolullah,
he's not like anyone of us, so should
not lower him from the level
of misleadership
and
So that's how
we will be balanced. He's Abdullah.
We should not raise him above that status.
He's the servant of Allah, and we should
not lower him because he's Rasool Allah. He's
not like any one of us.
This is how the Sahaba
treated the prophet.
But to go to extreme
as the Busaidi,
may Allah forgive him, in his buddha,
he went
overboard.
He crossed the limit.
So much so that he's saying
that the
The duniya is from you, the akhirah is
from you, and part of your knowledge is
the knowledge that is there in the preserved
tablet.
The knowledge of the pen and the preserved
tablet
belongs to the prophet or what belongs to
Allah?
Every miracle
that the messengers of Allah perform
k? It's connected to them through his light.
This is unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
I respect the 4th addict.
Unacceptable.
So
the is unacceptable.
In the heart,
you take the pebble, small one.
Okay?
Like the check peas.
That's how you throw
They jabarat. To take big one,
bigger stones, that is that
is
So
just
follow
the Sharia.
Follow what Allah said.
Follow what the prophet
said.
You don't
add to it
anything.
The deen has been
perfected and completed.
K?
We'll do. If
you add
the 4th time you wash the or the
limb
4 times.
That is rude.
As you mentioned, the hadith.
Whoever exceeds the number,
so he has increased.
And he has trans to get transgressed
and cross the limit.
So the answer to the my dear question,
yes.
There is
there is extremism
among
those who call themselves and
who are the?
Every Muslim is a.
Salafi means what?
Salafi means one who follows the Salaf, Salafi.
Who are the Salaf?
The Salaf
are the Sahaba,
the Taberim, and Taber Taberim.
Those are known as
the
the pious predecessors.
So whoever follows the footsteps,
he's salivating,
even
not calling himself that name.
Keep the label. No need to mention it.
I'm salivating. No need.
What is more important
that you follow
their way, the way of the Sahaba.
And if you ask any Muslim,
do you follow the way of the Sahaba,
Tabireen, Tabireen, Tabireen, say, yes. That is my
way. I believe in that.
That is the way, my dear brother and
sisters, and that is if you are really
following
the way of the 3 generations,
their their
their their,
their,
you will be with them in the jannah.
And may Allah gather all our Ummah
in that,
blessed company,
the company of the prophet,
his companions,
and the 3 generations,
including
the 4 imams, Rahim
Muba So that's it. So if you look,
my dear brother and sister,
and you see any extension,
any sign of
practice
by any Muslim or any group, it is
unacceptable.
Finish.
We don't have double standard. It is unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
Many of the Sahaba,
as you know,
used to wash up to here thinking that
it is permissible,
and he wants to wear ornaments up to
the armpit.
No one followed him regarding that. Said Abdullah
bin Rahmah used to wash the inside of
his eyes. No one accepted that.
Yeah. Abdullah bin Rahmah
eating the eyes or the snow during the
Ramadan,
saying that it's not water, no accepted
that from him, etcetera.
So anything
that goes against the guitar and the sunnah
of the
will be rejected
from that and not accepted from that person,
irrespective
Who is that who that person is?
Is this clear to the question?
It is clear, Sheikh. Next question.
What is the interpretation
of the hadith of the prophet
narrated by Abu Harayra?
The hellfire
complained to its lord saying, oh my lord,
my different parts eat up each other. So
he allowed it to take 2 breaths,
1 in the winter
and one in the summer, and this is
the reason for the severe heat and the
bitter cold you find in weather.
Yeah.
As it is said,
how we don't know?
Because I was saying that.
And we have our knowledge is limited.
Our knowledge is limited.
Next question.
Next question.
Sheikh, can you explain to me the concept
of breaking heart as breaking heart is grievous
sin,
but speaking truth of also breaks the heart
of person. So should we stop saying truth
as truth is bitter and no one is
ready to accept?
No. The truth has to be said, but
you should know how to say it.
You take it gradual.
K?
So you prepare this person
gradually
to accept that. But
we should not hide the truth and we
should not,
I mean, compromise the truth or as they
say,
Yani,
hide part of it.
Yes. Sometimes,
it can
be the the truth of this hack or
this aim,
Like, in
when I had it,
the,
the told the Sahabi not to mention this
to the to the people
so that they
rely on the promise mentioned in that hadith,
like the Hadith of Mu'adh.
So this is Haqq, truth.
But Mu'adh didn't mention it because the prophet
told him not to mention it
so that people will not misunderstand it.
So Mu'adh only mentioned the Hadith when he
was dying because he didn't want to die
while hiding
and hadith of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasall.
So that's why the ulama they said sometimes
it is Hikma from the Hikma
to
not give or mention
the,
the knowledge that, you know, if this knowledge
is going to cause,
misunderstanding
or doubt in the minds of the people.
So we have to talk to them according
to their
comprehension, according to their ability to
digest this information.
You should not talk to them about things
above their heads.
That's why I said, Nali said,
So talk to the people when you talk
to them according to their mental
capacities.
Do you want them to rely Allah and
his prophet?
Because they cannot
digest it, so they will say, no. Allah
didn't say this or the prophet didn't say
that.
So you should know
this person whom you are talking to,
and
prepare this person
little by little to accept the hat inshallah.
Next.
Next question.
My husband's Tajweed is not correct
and he does not take any interest in
changing it. Is it sinful to allow my
child to join him in
congregational
prayers
if they do not wish to join him
or join myself?
No. No.
If he's that you eat, you mean that
he I don't know the idram and the
itlaq and
the and things like that.
The salah is correct. The salah is correct.
Because this is not lahin jelly.
Lahin,
the mistakes in the reading is Lahin kafi
and Lahinjali.
So the Lahinjali
is, yes, that will make the meaning totally
different.
Okay.
That is what will nullify the salah, make
the salah invalid.
But if it is just about the Akan
or the Mad,
okay,
he's the not the the same number of
the of that same due duration of the
month he maintains
or the or the.
So here, the salah is correct.
Salah is correct as long as it is
not lahangeli.
Lahangeli, that means he is pronouncing a letter
differently
and the meaning becomes totally different.
Is this clear to the question? Yes. Insha'Allah,
Sheikh. The next question, assalamu alaikum, Sheikh. Can
a person perform Hajj
for her mom because she is asth asthmatic?
I've asked them if they are
staying silent when coming up from this position,
and they said the following.
Okay. So the first part of the question,
to be
to be part in the behalf of her
mother who is sick and cannot go to
the hut.
Correct.
Okay. Providing that
the daughter has already performed had herself
and she has her Mahal. Then Insha'Allah there's
no Mahal. The second part of the question?
About the person who was questioning,
saying,
late. That person has responded again and says
no. After saying,
not immediately after.
Okay. He gets up from Ruku,
and he forgets, and he poses it. Then
he say,
Things like that. Yeah.
Yeah. If he did this just by, he
forgot.
Inshallah.
Next. But, of course, you have to get
rid of this bad habit.
Dear Sheik, is only toilet paper enough for
Tahara
if water is not available? And what can
a person do
if he found water later?
Okay.
Now you see in the, in the past,
people, they used to use
stones
to remove the impurity.
K?
So after defecating,
they use 3 stones
to remove the impurity.
So
if the impunity
is removed
by the toilet paper nowadays,
k,
and no water,
So that means this person,
he
how did he play?
Or he just removed the impurity.
Maybe it was not time for a player
by using the toilet papers.
Then later on, he found water, and he
performed.
So he or she now is asking,
should I wash,
the,
the place of the impurity with water now?
It is better.
It is better, no doubt. But if you
didn't, you just performed wudu, your salah is
correct.
Because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, he placed
the Muslims
in the
Masjid of Quba.
Quba.
So Allah say
that Allah allows
those
who repent
oftenly
and those who maintain their purity.
So Allah loves those who repent
frequently
and maintain their Sahaba.
Sayyid N Ali, he approached the Sahaba,
and he said, Allah praised you. What do
you do?
They said,
after removing the impurity
using
these stones,
we washed
we washed using the water.
We washed the place
that the impure in which the impurity was,
so that's why Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala He
placed them
because the water will remove totally
the nidja.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes. Inshallah, Sheikh. That is clear.
The next question. Assalamu alikum Sheikh. Can a
woman consider any potential suitor
if he identifies
himself from a?
Yes. Any,
Muslim.
Any Muslim.
Okay.
Any Muslim
from Ahlus Sunnah, I mean.
And I'm not saying from
others, from Ahlus Sunnah because a woman,
once
she,
she's married,
we know that the personality of a woman
is weak,
and the man will be dominating
and,
imposing
on how to run his household and how
to bring up his children.
Okay? And there are problems.
Some,
Sunni sisters, many Shia,
Muslims,
and now they have children and they, they
have problems.
K?
So Nadi Farfam,
the
your Sunni brothers.
Okay?
And,
as long as he's pious, righteous,
and following the Kitab and Sunnah and no
shirk and no
biddhas,
two things on you need to look for.
His dean,
that means he is Muhahed. He's
he's not
practicing Shirk
or or innovations. That is most important thing,
the deal.
Second thing,
his manners, his.
Maybe he is a good brother, practicing brother,
following Kitab and Sunnah,
but he has bad manners.
Unfortunately,
there
are types, people like that. Bad manners.
And if you have bad manners, there is
something wrong with your
email.
Bad manners,
using vulgar language, bad mouth,
temperamental,
they get angry very quick.
So it's not,
suitable
partner for you
as the prophet,
advised the woman who came and asked him
3 of your companions to propose,
Mahawiya,
Abu Jaham, and Usama. He said Mahalia is
a poor fellow. He doesn't have money.
Don't marry him.
Which means if a suitors
approaches
and came to a family and say, look,
you know, I don't have a job for
the time being,
but I want to get married.
So the father-in-law,
future father-in-law should tell him, my son, be
a man, and when you are you are
a man, come.
Because now you are not a man, you
are a male, not a man.
A man is the one who will look
after a family. So when you are a
man, come.
Okay.
So the prophet said, Mahalia, he's a poor
fellow. Don't marry him.
Abu Jahan, he beats the woman, so don't
marry him.
So if you know this
brother is very temperamental,
hot tumble person,
And people, they ask you about him. Don't
hide that.
Otherwise,
you, you cheated the family.
You have to tell them
he has this problem.
So
if you want your daughter to cry 3
times a day,
because he's going to give her 3 doses
every day,
then the time I return.
I will not recommend him for my daughter
or my sister.
Or if you know him
that he has tight hand,
stingy,
mention that
because hand of the Allah, she came to
the prophet and she said,
he
has tight hand. He doesn't spend. He doesn't
give me enough
for me and my children.
Can I take from
behind without letting him know?
He said yes.
You can take what is sufficient for you
and your children.
So listen to this problem. Sisters are allowed
to open your wallet
and to take what is sufficient for them
and their children.
So it's better that you give them
and not to force them to use
that method.
And then he told her, marry Osama. So
don't marry Mahawiya because he's a poor fellow.
Don't marry Abu Jahangi beats the woman.
So marry Osama.
So
you have to look for the d
and the hollow. 2 things. His character, his
manners.
May Allah bless you
with the
pious
suitor, pious
husband
who will make you your
journey to the Akhirah easy, and may both
of you, you land in the Yamna together,
Amin.
Next.
Next question, Sheikh. Can a woman travel to
another country for work and leave her husband
with his permission?
No.
A woman should not travel without a.
It's not allowed
because
women needs protection.
Women
is an easy pay for men,
especially
if no men around her.
And now she's traveling to another country to
work
and she's alone.
She will be vulnerable.
And keep in mind, my dear sisters, men
are angry wolves.
And he smiles to you and he should
know what he has in mind.
Only one thing.
Never trust them.
K?
It is the
responsibility
and the duty of the man
to bring the bread to the table, not
the woman, not the wife.
Now the woman was going to travel
and and burn the bread,
and he will become the babysitter.
What is this?
Things are the opposite.
Next question, please.
The next question.
Some time ago, someone asked you the question
whether it was okay to invest in cryptocurrencies.
I remember you saying that you were researching
the issue to discover the issues related to
this kind of investment.
I wanted to know if there were any
updates,
on the research
and if it was okay to make this
kind of investment.
Some people I know have said they believe
it is halal because the risk is
if risk of failure
or success are equal. Is this correct thought
process?
This issue,
which is, of course, it is, this is,
contemporary issues,
and
the opinions of most of the scholars, it's
not allowed.
K?
So
a Muslim,
when it comes to
new transactions,
you should not
start
using these transactions or
involved in such transactions
until things is very, very clear.
Very clear.
Things are doubtful,
uncertain.
Don't come near to it. This is my
advice for the questioner. Next.
The next question.
Dear Sheikh, can you please explain those whom
are in the title
to have the shafaa
of a Wali?
And
what answer can we give someone who says
a dead Wali can hear our call? Because
when we are still in the grave
and bearing him, he is hearing.
Alhamdulillah may Allah guide him. This person he
doesn't know.
That the dead they do not hear.
Because Allah said,
You cannot make the dead hear.
That's what Allah said.
And the,
the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam when he talked
to the dead in the of the Mushriks
in the bell
in the well of Badr, that was a
miracle for the Prophet
Allah brought them to life
so that they
they would they were able to to hear
what the Prophet said to Allah. That's why
I said, Nar Umar, he objected
and he said,
how can you talk to the dead?
And here you have to keep in mind,
what's in Nama said,
how do you talk to the dead? Because
it is known to all the Sahara,
The dead, they do not hear.
And now he is seeing something different.
And the prophet,
he did not correct Sayid Omar.
Had what Sayid Omar said is wrong, he
would have corrected him,
and he would have told him all about
Umar.
You don't know the dead they hear?
But because it is established
fact
that known to them, the dead they do
not hear. He did not blame him for
that.
So he did not correct him.
But what he told us in the rumor,
what he was not aware of, that what
is happening
is an exceptional case.
Now Allah has the Wajal is making them
able he made them able to hear me.
So this a medical happened for the prophet
regarding
the hadith that the dead person,
he hears the footsteps
of the people when they leave him.
The hadith itself
is self explanatory.
Yes, Maru.
He hears the footsteps
at that particular moment.
At that particular moment, he hears, which means
after that, he doesn't hear. Otherwise, what is
the benefit of using the word
at that moment?
So what this man said
is wrong because the habit is
stimulating and he's saying at that particular moment
only he hears.
Apart from that,
the dead persons
as the they
do not
hear.
So the dead, they do not hear us
at all.
The prophet, he doesn't hear us.
So only when we send the salah, Allah
has a wajal.
Listen to
this. He brings back the lure
to the body
and angels, they convey to him.
The salah of the
the Muslims.
Angels, they convey to
him. Is this clear to the questioner?
That is clear, Sheikh. And, that was our
final question for tonight.
If you'd like to conclude.
My dear brothers and sisters
for your dedication,
for your presence, for your
patience.
May Allah
reward you immensely, bless you, bless your family,
protect you, protect your family,
and grant
a quick recovery to all the Muslims who
are sick, those who are,
affected and infected
with the
the COVID 19. May Allah grant them quick
recovery, Ameen. And may Allah
show
us mercy upon the souls of those who
passed away.
And may Allah
elevate your status, my dear brothers and sisters
in this world and the next life.
And may Allah keep us remain steadfast on
this beautiful deed and Islam
till we meet him, and he's pleased with
all of us. I mean,
I leave you
