All
right, two to 10. Now that two to 10 you can either do to Salam out
to Salam out, and you don't have to do to it's not two or 10. It's
2468 or 10. Okay, so you're gonna do to Salam out to SoLoMo?
Or you could do
to, to shut hood. Keep getting up, right and continuous, it could be
continuous. So Stephen Witter in general, it's prayed in these two
different ways, either continuous or cut up as 22211 or all
together.
Is that clear with anyone? Any questions on that? Yeah.
Yeah, so it'll be in that case, it'll be
three sets 579 or 12. Like that. It'll be like that.
Yeah.
Okay, so we should do this right before we go to sleep. But
if you fear missing it, you can pray right after ation.
Let's say someone is afraid of missing Witter. Like, I know I'm
lazy, right. I don't know if I'm going to make if I go home, I'm
not going to pray which I'm just going to do whatever. So you could
pray with her right after Aisha to okay in case you fear being lazy,
and that's acceptable to
remember where Aisha has one
sunnah to sunnah. Rakas. And then there's Stefan Witter. So,
the sunnah to sunnah records are optional, right? But stuff and
which are stronger, right? So if you're say I don't got five
records in me, I don't have enough gas for five records only have gas
for three records. Right? Then do the chef and The Witcher three
records.
If you plan on staying up all night, then pray them right before
the night is over. Pray them in the last portion of the night.
Which is actually the best time to pray
then yeah, then you can do Chefman which are there. You don't
know if you plan on staying up. If you plan on waking up. I mean,
before fetcher delay yourself on which I'm prayed in that time.
In most cases people pray to on one.
In them it is recommended to recite suited Allah in the first
record Kathy rune and the second and the three calls, which are the
last three sores in the winter. Alternatively, one may recite
Kaffee rune in the first class in the second and the two calls in
the winter. This is recommended but whatever Quran one recites is
acceptable and remember, in all of the prayer the surah after suits
and Fattah is a sunnah in your if your whole day you did not you
recited only suited Fattah in your prayer, it's valid. So the
Quran recited after the Sunday after the fact is Asuna in all
cases, obligatory and recommended prayers.
Alright, lastly is also permitted to pray chef and which are all at
once without the synonyms in between. And you'd only salam
after the third raka this case would resemble mother with the two
showed in the second and third ruckus. Any questions on chef and
with him? Yep.
No wedge of the word wedge is a means obligatory. And the Imam the
early Imams felt that the shefa was so important, right that they
categorize it almost like an obligation. Right? Almost like an
obligate so that's how heavy and serious shefa and with your
prayers are.
Yeah, you just make the intention of Chefin which and when it comes
to intention
The intention does not ever have to be spoken. But according to
Imam Shafi, you're better off speaking it so that it becomes
there's no confusion at all. So again, the intention is in your
heart, but if you speak it
It clarifies it even more.
All right next prayer we go to its allotted eight. All right, we're
going to start going on to a lot of different prayers here.
Let's have
let's have Anna read for us.
Was the proper time there should be tugging from the morning until
the prayer there is no as a four o'clock. It is a very very strong
summer for men and women. Even the women
not paying for the time, even though she did not cry. It was
traditionally held in open fields outside the city laws. It is the
reverse or Joomla or the priors first.
Alright, so first thing right off the bat, you imagine Joomla and
then swapping it. Right? Prayer first speech Second.
Okay, you've got
seven techniques, the second spot, the Hanafi. School follows
narration from even stating three interferes with the first and
three times before before the second
All right, so he says Allahu Akbar, that's one, right then he
does six more. He said, he keeps saying Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar,
before students in Facha until he says it a total of seven times
seven ticker beers. Second, raka he gets up, Allahu Akbar, that
doesn't count. Then he starts off with five. He does take a beer
five times. So that's the second point. That's different about Eid.
Okay, are you prayer the extra seven tech beers in the beginning,
five tech beers in the second clip was the same, he gives a clip but
same beginning, sits down in the middle for a few seconds, then
gets up and gives a second half. Okay, just like Joomla
Okay, keep going.
It is recommended.
In contrast.
Okay, so the two aids
the one which is either fifth, or is literally the aid of breaking
the fast, which is on the first of show, after the month of Ramadan.
This year, it's going to be something like
August 28, or something like that. Ramadan is starting like, July 29.
Okay, so it'll be the end of August, sometime in the end of
August will be a third fifth. And it is recommended to eat first
thing in the morning. Because it's gonna you're doing the opposite of
fasting. Right?
The second aid is about
is about 60 Some days after this this aid, and it's called agent
Aha. Which means the aid of slaughtering because in this, you
sacrifice animals, okay? And you give keep a third for yourself,
give a third to your friends and family and give a third to charity
that's recommended. Not everyone could do this. People who have
money can do that. And this is in commemoration of the Prophet
Ibrahim alayhis. Salam, Prophet Ibrahim.
What what is this all about? This this holiday is Abrahamic holiday,
in which Ibrahim alayhi salam was commanded. Allah saw that Abraham
has become very attached to his son. So he commanded his Ibrahim
to slaughter his son, okay. And Ibrahim accepted this command and
ismail also accepted this command. And then at the last minute, Angel
Jibreel came down and he said Allah was just testing you do not
slaughter your son rather slaughter a sheep and Abraham
Angel Jibreel brought him a sheep. And they slaughtered that kept
eight a third for themselves, gave a third to their friends and
family and gave the third in charity. Okay, and so that's part
of the holiday as well.
The other aspect of it is that for it's, it's, it's the 10th day of
the month of the Hijra. The first nine days are the days of which
people will be at the pilgrimage. Okay, people will be at Mecca,
making Hajj and if we are here,
obviously we don't have Hajj.
But people can also slaughter animals here. Okay, and get the
reward of that. So that aid prayer is the opposite. You don't eat
until after the prayer. Right? You don't eat in the morning until
after the these are sunless right. And around the time of these
holidays. The Imams usually will clarify we'll just repeat again
what is the rituals and traditions about these holidays but that's
what the holidays are. First one for fasting the whole month of
Ramadan. And the second one for the pilgrimage people who have
done Hajj
or any questions on how to their Eid prayer is done.
All right now let's go to Janaza prayer funeral prayer.
Okay. When someone dies, what do we do? All right and keep reading
or students in the first the pacifies in the second Salah era
comedian in the third to offer the disease and in the fourth for all
diseased
you can also be done in the absence of the disease even after
his burial. Since ultimately it is a suffocation. An example of this
is the prophets prayer. Who found the Ethiopian King. Okay, good.
So, this prayer someone dies, what what is a ritual? How do we handle
someone who dies in Islam, someone dies, within 24 hours, they should
be in their grave. That's a rule of thumb. within 24 hours, they
should be in their grave. Okay. Deceased should not be left out of
their grave for a long period of time if they are the people who
are responsible for that. They're blame worthy, okay. First thing
you do is that during someone's death as someone's dying, the
people should be around him praying for him saying let ilaha
illallah reciting Quran, okay, and telling him giving him good news
that he's about to go to a place of mercy, a place better than this
life. Then the person dies after the person dies. He's washed with
a lukewarm water, okay by relatives or other people. Okay,
and a man should not wash a woman that is a foreign woman to him.
Okay. In other words, a regular woman dies, the average Muslim man
is not going to come and wash her only her relative her male, her
male or her husband, or her father. Or if there's no woman at
all, then they give her a dry will do. Right? They don't wash her at
all. They leave her body. If a man dies, then the men will wash him
with a lukewarm water just washed his whole body. Then they perfume
the body and enshrouded with white white garments, okay, an odd
number of white garments.
And from there, they take it to the mosque, okay, from wherever
the body is washed. It goes to the masjid. Okay. Of course it is
permissible for family to come and just look at the the face or the
of the of the person one more time and pray for the person and have a
moment of privacy all that's permissible.
As soon as the body is in Shroud it it goes straight to the masjid
and we get to the masjid.
It goes right up front. And the Janessa funeral prayer is done for
that person. How's the Janaza prayer done?
Standing, everyone says Allahu Akbar follows the Imam. Allah
Akbar. He received suit. It's unfair to her your site so it's
unfair to help with the intention that he gets the reward of it. Of
that recitation. You recite Allah you say Allahu Akbar the second
time, then you say Salah Ibrahimi which remember is in the beginning
of this book Allahumma Salli ala Muhammad wa ala Ali Muhammad what?
Robotic I'm gonna do it Muhammad what Hamama do it Muhammad came
isolator with him to Baraka Ibrahim Allah brain Philomena in a
cameo Majid and there are different different little
differences. Also, like Ibrahim is the same. As long as it involves
the prophet is family Abraham and his family. That Salah Ibrahimi,
you say that with the intention that he gets the reward of it, or
she you say Allahu Akbar a third time. And then silently everyone
says all of its silent by the way, you make supplicate for the
deceased, either in Arabic or to yourself in your heart, He make
dua for the diseases, such as Oh ALLAH forgive him, replace him
with company better than the company of this dunya give him an
abode better than the abode of this world. overlook any of his
flaws, like cover up any of his flaws, all these things, reward
him with the best of the deeds that he's ever done, et cetera,
then say Allahu Akbar the third or fourth time and now you make
supplication for all of the diseases of the Muslims all the
Muslims who died from that person to the first Muslim whoever died
Okay. The first Muslim who ever died which is the Ethiopian King
the Joshi the first Muslim ever to die Ethiopian King the Joshi
King the Joshi just to give you a little thing about him before he
move on.
When the Muslims were being persecuted in Mecca,
okay.
When the muscles were being persecuted in Mecca, the Prophet
peace be upon him, send them to Ethiopia. He got permission from
Angel Jibreel from Allah, the Muslims can go to Ethiopia and
live in peace. Why King the Joshi was a Christian ruler who was very
good. Okay.
Actually, just as to fix my facts. There may have been
two people who died before him that were killed before him. Just
a little factor. King the Joshi was a good king who was a
Christian king and
when he listened to the Muslims, he actually accepted the Prophet
peace be upon him, and he became a Muslim
When his bishops all heard this, they and the elites of the
country, they started to spread rumors that he's not a Christian
anymore. He was in trouble. So what did he do? He did something
called Tolia. A practice that is permissible when you're in
trouble. It's called todavia. All right, it's not the best practice,
but it's permissible when you're in trouble. What is totally a toad
is to say a
to say something, knowing that it will be understood one way while
you understand it another way. So what did he do? He wrote, he took
a pen of paper, there wasn't paper at the time parchment. And he
wrote, La ilaha illAllah. Muhammad Rasul Allah on it, he folded it,
and he put it in his jacket pocket in his shirt pocket. Then he went
out to his balcony to the people. And then he said,
he spoke to give a speech. And then he said, What do you all
believe? Okay. And they said, We believe that Jesus is the Son of
God. Right? And then they gave the Christian doctrine basically. And
then he said, I too, he said, I believe in this. Right? And when
he pointed to himself, they thought he's pointing saying, I,
and he knows that he means this sheet that's in his paper sheet
that's in his pocket. Alright, so he technically told the truth,
right. But he knew that it not would not be understood by the
people. And that is actually permissible for a person to do.
Right. When they're jammed. If you're between a rock and a hard
place, you can practice toady and Prophet Ibrahim practice toady as
well. Okay, yes.
As I was telling you earlier,
moms, so we have like the nozzles and things like that. So we would
have issues sometimes with the families.
Let's say someone
passed away. Yeah, there was one sister who had converted to her
Shahada. Yeah. Your sleep. Okay. seizure. So her family was arguing
that we want her to have a Christian burial. And her husband
was saying, No, she's, she's gonna have a janazah. Yeah. So all I
remember is that she ended up having a weak
body back to the masjid. Yeah.
Okay, so the Imam was saying that it's better to have something in
writing, stating a will. Yeah. Even if it's like a piece of food
for you get it notarized? Yeah, you know, demanding that your
family respect your wishes. Yeah, that's a good point. People should
have a will. And people should know that. Anything that involves
death, any document like inheritance, will any
documentation that involves death is meaningless if it's not legally
notarized, right? And you could find like, what they call notary
publics are certain people who work with the state who have like
a stamp. And that makes a document official, right? So if I write a
document, even if I do a video, right, it's not legal
documentation, if it involves death, right? If it involves
death, it has to be legally notarized. So
people should get wills and do that and make sure that their what
their desires are, or their wishes are respected. That's a good put.
So kina Joshi, he then died in Ethiopia, when the news came to
the Prophet he Prophet made Janaza prayer on him from Mecca. Right.
So it's, it's a prayer supplication. Now, what happens
after the Janaza prayer, the Janaza prayer is a conditional
obligation upon every Muslim male and female, okay, of a mature age.
What does that mean a condition obligation and what are the
conditions? The conditions are that you have no real reason not
to be there? And we mean, and what is the real reason? Anything work
distance sickness, prior commitments? You can a person
cannot be just sitting on their couch and not attend the prayer.
Okay. The actual prayer, if you're at work is acceptable. If it's far
it's acceptable. If
you're exhausted, it's acceptable. All those are acceptable
conditions. However, if you're healthy and you have time, and you
have leisure
to skip Janaza prayer is a minor sin. He cannot skip and as whether
you know the person or not, okay, now, the next part is the march
from the mosque to the funeral. Okay from the masjid to start to
the graveyard.
The graveyard that is recommend
And at that point, it's recommended that it's not a bigot.
What's obligatory is the prayer. And also it's frowned upon for
women to join
the procession from the masjid to the graveyard. And of course, the
procession used to be on foot, obviously now it's in cars. Right?
It's frowned upon, right for a Muslim woman to be there. Why?
Because of the,
obviously, the imagery of burning someone, right? The Prophet did
not want the women there, because they will be moved so much.
Then the last part is the actual lowering of the person into the
grave. You lower the person into the graveyard, or into the grave,
and you face him, his chest should face the Qibla. So let's say this
was a graveyard, you would put him right, his face facing the Qibla
on his right side, on his right side, chest facing the direction
of the fibula. You put him in there, you cover him up, all the
while, you should be saying Leila Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah Allah,
it's recommended for you to linger a little bit. It's frowned upon
for everyone just to leave. Right? Because we believe that soul is
still there, right? It's still aware. And if everyone just
leaves, it's a startling experience. According to the
Prophet, peace be upon him. Rather, a couple of people should
linger. be staying there making dua praying for the person just
being there. When the last person leaves, that's when the angels
come and question that soul what he believes what did you believe,
then they either open his grave, and it becomes a small version of
paradise, or they leave it constricted, and he suffers. Okay,
so that's
death from the moment of death until the actual burial, right?
It's actually frowned upon, to to have big edifices on the graves
because it makes distinctions between rich and poor. That's
actually very frowned upon. In Islam.
What a person can have is a slab that indicates who they are, and
indicates
the space basically, because if you just leave it, you end up not
knowing who's buried where and you could walk on a grave. But to have
a slab there is acceptable, or simply a slab at the head flat and
not mentioned God's name on it, because birds will come poop on
it, people might step on it, you shouldn't, there's no need to put
God's name on it. Right? Because it's not respectful. So you simply
put the person's name.
And the year, whatever you want, you can put anything you want on
the slab. But to put up stuff high, it costs $1,000. And then
the next person next to you is poor, and they can't even afford a
basic slab. It makes people feel bad, right. So we are frowned upon
from doing so. Okay.
Anyway, questions on janazah prayer.
For instance.
Yes, yes, if no bodies are found, and it's you reach a degree of
certainty that the bodies will not be found, right. At that point,
you can do what's the Prophet did, which is the Janaza prayer in
absentia. In this case, it will be Janaza.
Everyone's in absentia, because we don't know where the body is. And
so you would simply do a Janaza prayer, everyone would do a prayer
in the masjid. Right. And you could do Janaza prayer anytime you
could do it in your home. Right? You could do Janaza prayer
in any place at any time. Okay, but it can only it should only be
done once.
And for example, we're not going to do Janaza every year from my
grandfather, he just, it's only done once. Other than that, you
can just do regular supplications at any time, regular dua for
people can be done at any time. And it's recommended, actually one
of the
one of the prayers do us that people said it makes you special
in the sight of Allah is that if you pray for mercy,
and forgiveness and ease,
right, mercy, forgiveness, ease and protection, right? For all the
Muslims from the beginning to the end, if you make this dua
first thing do you make when you wake up? And last thing before you
sleep? mercy, forgiveness
mercy, forgiveness and protection for all the Muslims, the dead and
the living. Right that is one of the heaviest draws in the sight of
Allah because it shows your selfless, you're thinking of
others, right? You're thinking of others and think of how many
people
That applies to, right how many Muslims that applies to.
All right, any other questions on janazah?
Okay.
Yes, suicide is a prohibition for a person to do. But ultimately it
is a forgivable sin. And you still do janazah prayer, the only person
you don't We don't do janazah prayer upon is someone who died in
battle, right? The people who died in battle, right, we don't prey
upon them or wash them. As they died, they get put in their grave.
That's it. Right. Now, there's another method that they used to
use, you could use different methods, when you put people in
the grave, you could put them in a box, a wooden box, so literally,
you're not putting dirt right on them. Or you can curve out the
grave in the shape of an L.
And you put the person in the little pocket, right? And so when
you pour the dirt on, it doesn't go directly on the person either.
Right? Does everyone get how that works? Like you you dig down like
this, I like to you, but then you take the bottom and you dig out a
little extra space, and you put the person in that space, that
pocket, then when you put the dirt it won't go directly on the
person. Right. So but in any event, the martyrs who die in
battle, get killed in war, do not get buried, sorry, do not get
washed in shrouded or preyed upon, because the Prophet peace be upon
him says they don't experience death the way everyone else does.
They're still alive. In other words, when we experienced death,
there's going to be regular experience for everyone. First,
your soul goes straight up to the heavens to the Throne of Allah,
then it comes back down. It hovers around the body until it's buried.
Once it's buried, it lives a life in the of what we call bizarre.
Neither of this world nor of the next world, it's a middle range.
And it's questioned by the angels, okay? But the murderer does not
live like that. The Prophet peace be upon him set at the moment. All
right, the, the murderer dies, okay, his soul is placed into the
soul of a bird that flies around heaven. So he's neither
questioned, nor does he feel that he's being put in a grave. Person
who dies on the battlefields is a special level. So they're not
treated like they're dead at all. Okay. And you know,
it's really we don't even say he died, we say he was murdered,
which means a total different
life after his death, total different. And when he goes on to
the Day of Judgment, he's not asked what he did, there's no
account, like there are verses of Quran that tell you, you're going
to be resurrected.
You're going to be given a book of your deeds, and then the scale
will come up, and your good deeds and be put on your bad deeds will
be put. And after the scale comes up, you get to see you did good or
bad. Then you go to heaven and you on the way to heaven, though you
have to wait. Right? You got to wait, there are other people in
front of you. So it's a process? Well, the martyrs who die on the
battlefield, okay. Do not experience any of that. They have
like just like an airport. We go we arrive at JFK. But when
Bill Clinton arrives at JFK, he doesn't go where we go, right?
There's a special route for for VIPs. Right to give a rough
analogy. That's what it is on the almost the AMA those who died on
the battlefield, they have a special experience completely that
is like a VIP shortcut. directly there. Yep.
Now now, there are other categories of martyrs, right? That
are a little less less than the the murder of the battlefields
where it's neither like everyone else, nor is it the one who died
in the battlefields. It's a middle level, like everything's a little
bit better for them, but they're not the martyrs of the
battlefield. And they are people who drowned people who burned, a
woman dies in pregnancy, a man who dies defending his wealth or his
family.
Someone who dies by a building collapsing on him and someone who
dies by His internal organ, failing or exploding upon it.
Right, Mattoon. So all of these categories of people who died this
very difficult deaths, they are treated like the dead, but they
are martyrs of a different type. It's not exactly that type, who
died on the battlefield? It's a second type, which means when they
get to the death judgment, they can take 70 of their family and
friends with them to paradise.
Right, which is good. Let's say I go to let's say I die. My
grandfather died a martyr.
He drowned, let's say, or my best friend, let's say he drowned. And
I messed up in life. I might be the 70, he might pull me out and
say this person, don't give him a count. Take him right away. So the
mark, that type of martyrdom is very special. Right? And they
could take people who otherwise might be in some trouble, right?
might be in some trouble. They'll pull them out. And the ghost take
them straight to heaven. For diseases to
know specifically of the stomach. Yeah, stomach imploded, or
exploded. Yep.
The half is has a different thing, the half for the one who memorize
Quran, his parent, the Prophet, peace be upon him said, on the Day
of Judgment, his parents are treated as a king and a queen.
Right? And they're given crowns of light on their heads, and they're
on thrones. So,
but this intercession, Allah can give it to whomever he wishes, and
it's not limited to 70. Right? Intercession means that
Allah gives you permission to pull people out of trouble on the Day
of Judgment, even if they're in *, as believers, right, if they
were pagans, or hypocrites, then it's another story. But if he's a
believer who sinned, right, then at that point, you can pull them
out. Right? Yep.
See, saying,
for certain people, you know, who have will get intercession?
Because they,
because of that, they won't be like in the Hellfire thing we
receive, like the full punishment or whatever, like when they're in
*, like they won't like it. Like I heard him saying, you know,
they'll only get to like maybe the knee who is that?
No, who is only receives limited punishment
to believers? I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Believers who are gonna get
intercession? That's correct. A sinful believer, all someone who's
a believer, but has done major major wrongs, major sense, and did
not repent before they died. They get put into the Hellfire to a
degree, there's their degrees. And all of those sin, sinful believers
eventually are removed from the hellfire, and their punishments
are of degrees. It's not all it's not the may not be a punishment of
their whole body. Alright, so
Prophet peace be upon and describe the least punishment of the
Hellfire is someone who has coals on their heels, hot coals on their
heels, okay, that causes their blood to boil all the way up to
their brain. Okay, so obviously, that's, that's not the least
that's the least. But it's not something that is to be reckoned
with. Right? So
the point is, all of those believers, eventually they will
pay their price. And they will be taken out by an angel, okay, and
tossed into a river.
And their body then starts to cool off in that river and that river
winds them okay, until they come off to the side of the river onto
the side of the river. And from the side of the river, their body
is reformed. Okay, their body is reformed as a regular body, and
then they have to walk to paradise. Okay, the walk to
paradise until that level of hellfire, okay, will be empty,
completely empty, someday it will be completely empty. So that's the
first level of the Hellfire which is for the believers who had very
bad lives lived very bad lives.
Okay, good question person never learned about Islam and the diet.
Allah subhana which Allah the Prophet peace be upon have talked
about this and said Allah subhana wa, China's take such an
individual and gives them a special test on the Day of
Judgment. So they will be tested were tested here, right? Well,
they didn't get to take the test. They never heard of Islam. So
that's no test for them. They're tested on the Day of Judgment, a
test that is appropriate to them. Okay. Others said if they
maintained decency and goodness within themselves, right, so their
test is the moral choices of life. So just because you didn't hear
about Muhammad peace be upon him.
And the Quran and Islam doesn't mean you're not tested, you're
tested every day, right? A person comes upon a thief. Does he let
him go? Or does he tell the owner? So he's tried to stop him these
moral tests? Right? Some people said that it's both, that if he
passed those moral tests in this life, he'll pass them in the test
of the afterlife. So ultimately, the answer is that they will be
tested a unique tests for them in the afterlife.
Yeah.
In their grave, they will not have some, we really don't know to be
honest with you. We really don't know. But what I can tell you that
some have speculated that, that the grave takes on the nature of
their heart.
The grave takes on the nature of their heart, if they were people
have great anger.
If envy, hatred, okay,
stubbornness, all of these diseases, it will be reflected as
something negative. But if they had other good qualities and who
does who's not mixed, every human being is mixed good and bad,
right? The good qualities will mix so their grave will be their
heart, the reflection of their heart.
But ultimately, that is a speculation we really don't know.
All right, now we move to Tahajjud prayer, the the best prayer of the
supererogatory prayers that you can make. There is no better
prayer than Tahajjud prayer. Right? We said there are stronger
Sundays like the two before fetcher, Chef and witches.
Alright, let's have Jessica read this one.
This is perhaps the most powerful pair in terms of acting on the
character. The piece being said our sounds in the sky in the
master the night asking, is there anyone pending?
Is there a need the Prophet peace be upon him? He's asked to follow
that. He said yes, he laughs at his servant when he gets into
trouble and wakes up in the last third of the night weeks, we do
embrace to wrap us begging for help. He then says Oh, my angels
testify that I had believed him from his troubles. But he laughs
as someone who has this desire, so he wakes up in the last night and
makes no place to record teaching.
Lesson OH, MY ANGELS testify that in
the last Thursday night is calculated by the hours between
McGregor Hollinger and divided them into extensive testing those
hours from counter, for example, Maghrib is at 7pm. And hydrate at
4am equals nine hours. nine divided by three is three hours.
Hazard severity this one as
your best.
Good. So that's how you calculate to hedge it. What is night night
is from Maghrib to Fajr. That's all of the night.
So divide those hours by three and subtract that number from fetcher.
And that's to hedge it that last 1/3 of the night is the most
powerful time. Allah subhana which another Hadith says that I should
have included in here says that Allah descends to the lowest
heavens of the earth at that hour. Did I put it here? I did put it
here. Allah comes down to the lowest sky in the last third of
the night asking Is there anyone who is penitent? Anyone who's
apologetic seeking forgiveness? Anyone who wants something? Anyone
who's
need something, okay.
last third of the night is the most you will feel the most
nearness to Allah Zota gift.
Is that
is Takata escape your pride and anytime. But this is the best time
to pray anything. Anything? Yep.
It doesn't count.
There'll be a pm live. To hedge it requires you to actually sleep and
get up. Yeah, so if I just stay up until 2am. That's not to hedge it.
That would just be like extra prayers to hedge requires you to
sleep and wake up. Why? Because there's an effect upon the one who
slept and woke up that will not be present upon someone who just
stayed up the whole night. Right? If I slept when you sleep, you're
literally erasing your whole short term memory. Your whole hard drive
is being cleaned out. You wake up, you're a clean slate. Your mind is
not thinking about anything. But if you just stayed up, there's a
really that effect is not there.
Just based on experience that the Ultimates shared with us they said
that
Have to hedge it if you didn't, if you had a good day, in terms of
your deen, you did good deeds you prayed on time, etc. didn't do any
many bad deeds, or maybe it's just small ones here and there, you
should be able to wake up for 200 If you did bad deeds, you will not
be able to wake up for 200 to hedge it is like sometimes they
say is a marker for whether you did good or bad the day before.
The second thing is that to hedge it is the mark of to hedge it is
serenity and patience throughout the next day. So if you want to
know if your Tahajjud prayer was done, well ask yourself if there's
more harmony in the next day. Right? There should be more
harmony the next day.
Nowadays, times the pretender changing rapidly but didn't know
would be like quarter to two to three or five. Yeah, so what you
do though, is you're not waking up the whole time. Let's say
February. Is that what time is Phaedra these days?
Like let's say it's 445 450.
Yeah, it says 445. So if I wake up at 415 If it's 445 if I woke up at
420 How long did it take me to get out of bed? Make Waldo pray to
raucous press two and one Witter. Right? It's not going to take you
10 minutes, right? So you don't need to wake up at 1am and wait
until four. Right? You might miss Federer. So what you do what this
what a smart person does who's got a job he's working or living?
Fine, fed your time? Wake up. 20 minutes before fetcher.
Stay pray. Even if you sleep again and you pray fed, you're at the
end of February that's acceptable. Or you pray fed during the
beginning of February. Right. So this is the gap the window may be
many hours, but you're not staying awake all those hours. I remember
when I first learned about to hedge it. I flunked out of school
almost right. Because I was thinking oh, like, last third of
the night, calculating it. Doing a prayer all night long, right? And
then wait, you got to pray. Fudger. Right. So you waking up
waiting for fetcher to come in? When you pray Fudger you have an
8am class. There's no way you're making that 8am class, right? So
you can miss in that first class econ class. So
So kept missing that class until you learned how what they meant by
Last Night doesn't mean you have to get up the whole night. Just a
portion a little bit before fetcher. Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
No, no, when you do suffer and winter, in the last third of the
night, it's chef on with your and tahajjud at the same time.
Yep.
Finished destroying registers.
So let's see if
it fits or isn't fine, Dan. Yeah.
And we only had one or two minutes before we can restore. Yeah, he
could start it.
Yeah, that's fine. Nothing wrong with that. Yeah.
Anything else about to hedge it? To hedge it, you just have to try.
It really is. Whoever does tahajjud sometimes it's really
groggy and hard. But sometimes you just hit the sweet spot, right?
And you feel full of energy. And you feel that your mind is totally
clear. And when you make a cool water will do at that hour, and
you pray to it because it's really as if heavenly ether is pouring
into your heart. And you feel just such a serenity that you become
addicted to to hedge it. So much so that some of the setup, they
used the people, the predecessors, they used to say that we actually
live for the night, all the days of distraction. Our goal is to get
through the day to sleep early, just to wake up or to hedge it.
Right. And there was
a che who is known for he used to hate roosters, right? And then
they said why do you hate the rooster so much? Right? It's a
good animal. He said because that's the marker of the end of
tahajjud. Right when Frederick comes up when the first light
comes the rooster makes noise. So he's like he's the one who ruins
it. Right? That's how much they really love to hedge it and you
need to just try it.
Alright, let's do the next prayer prayer of the penitent. All right,

Any questions?
Yep.
Smile? Yeah.
Yeah.
In Christianity?
Isaac Yeah.
You know, I've tried to consider where we're
able to
do that anything you describe? Well?
I really don't know much about that. But I do know
that some of the early Sahaba has also said it was Isaac.
However, that's overrided by the Prophet himself, who said
that it was a smile. He didn't say it was just mailed directly. He
said, I'm the son of two people who are supposed to have been
slaughtered. And that is Ishmael, and his own father Abdullah.
So the top of his lineage right after Ibrahim was one and then the
last person in the lineage right before his birth.

your sadness, too before Fajr any anything? Anything? Yeah. Anything
is any prayer that you pray besides the five daily prayers
besides that 12 Rakas right to before Fajr that's to do for
before door that's what six you do

Paradise
