			Now think about if you have a
little girl and she reads a hadith
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:06
			well if a woman or a dog or a
donkey pass by you, your prayer is
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:10
			cut off, right? What is she going
to think? But there's a context to
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			that hadith. There's an
explanation for the Hadith. Okay,
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:17
			the dog is because you're scared
that there's a wild dog coming
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:21
			right at you, right? Or that maybe
he'll urinate on you or something.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:24
			Okay? So he breaks this a lot
because you're scared now you're
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:28
			wondering what is this dog gonna
bite me or not? Or if your donkey
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:33
			passes by meaning a donkey passes
by meaning, like, my writing beast
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			is walking away. If you're in the
masjid, and all of a sudden, out
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			of the window of the messenger,
you see your car driving by while
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:43
			your insula, your Salah, your
focus is broken. Or if a woman a
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			beautiful woman passes by, or your
wife is passing by without a job,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:51
			right? She may be distracted, okay
to look. So you lose focus in your
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			prayer. You don't actually lose
your prayer. We all know that.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			None of that breaks the prayer.
