Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahmatu wahee Wa Barakah to
welcome back to our reading of the 40
Hadith of Sayna Imam and Nawawi You.
Rahim Muhu Allahu
Ta'ala Nafanallahu
Ta'ala biilmihee
Fidarini Amin.
1 hukalal
haditha sermon
which doesn't accept kesrah. So you don't say
like the word
like the word hamza
and so on and so forth like dalha.
So and
And you see something very important here, he
says,
Ibni Sahar.
Abdul Rahman Ibni Sahar is what's called Atulbayan.
Who's Abu Huerra?
Abdulrahman
I'm Sahar.
And there is a number of opinions about
his actual name. Some said Abdul Shams,
there's other names given to him.
Why would say you don't know imam and
Nawawi
write it in this way.
Abdirrahman
ibn sakhr,
to show you that according to him
that's the strongest opinion.
That's his name, that's the name of
Abuuhu Rayra Radiallahu
Tala Anhu.
This hadith that we're about to study
is the foundation of Sharia,
the foundation of fiqh.
And really one of the guiding principles of
Usul Ifilk.
The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said
whatever I have
it. It brings about one of the most
important axioms in Islamic law.
That our foundational relationship
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says about alcohol
and gambling
and like magic and sorcery.
You must abandon it. Sorcery,
tarot cards, the zodiac. Now a lot of
brothers and sisters getting caught up on that
stuff, Fajj telling you
So this, the beginning of this hadith
lays out one of the important principles for
those of us who have embraced Islam. We
have to embrace Islam with the attitude of
beginning to peel away the forbidden from our
lives.
I didn't say throw it away. We talk
about that in the hikam, in the second
hikam,
in our class here at Swiss, but to
peel it away
and to slowly eradicate it from our lives,
to evict the Haram from our life. If
you come back to Allah and May Tawba
and you were born Muslim to begin to
evict the forbidden from your life. So the
Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says,
means whatever.
Means
am.
Whatever I have prohibited for you, and this
means immediately.
Fajdani Abu. Doesn't mean don't be wise, don't
use hikmah, of course,
but at least have the intention
that you're going to be on this trajectory
of removing the forbidden.
I'm on this trajectory as a new Muslim,
when I became Muslim,
I began to realize there's certain things I
have to slowly peel away from my life,
like using marijuana,
having girlfriends,
you know, partying, clubbing,
living foul.
Because I knew that if I wanted
to be Muslim,
I knew that I had to do it
Alhamdulillah sincerely and correctly.
Allah says enter to Islam completely and don't
follow the footsteps of shaytan.
So the first part of this hadith is
the crux of the deen, after tawhid,
after iman and that's why imam, sayna imam
and Nawawi puts it here.
Because
now after talking about certain hadith in the
beginning, although we know that Amr Abu
Amr ibn Salah, he's the one actually that
put this hadith here. We know up to
Hadith 23, it's Abu Amr ibn Salah.
That's why he put this hadith here in
the imam and now we peer reviewed it
and agreed and so did Sayyidina
imam hafafafna rajib alhambari because 3 writers actually
wrote this text.
They agreed to this, have been peer reviewed
because after you fix the aqeedah,
then it's time to work on actions. What's
the first
basic foundational principle?
As he says in his introduction, the foundations
of Islam, the Qulliyat of Islam, what he
calls the rial saliheen alwalihad
things that are very clear and easy for
us to do
What I have prohibited for you, you must
avoid.
This implies 2 things. Number 1 is which
is a wajid for us to stay away
from the Haram.
How do we know that something's Haram?
The Quran or Surna says it,
For example, Allah says prohibited for you is
this.
Number 2, it's linked to a punishment in
the hereafter like * or punishment in the
grave.
So we understand that that's forbidden because the
Sharia
will command us to avoid those things, which
by avoiding them there's maslaha, there's benefit for
us in this life and the next.
Number 3, they're associated with a Hajd punishment,
right?
The serious punishments for serious crimes like adultery
and theft and so on and so forth.
Number 4, through Ijma, a consensus of the
scholars. Number 5, if you follow a mehtab
or a teacher, taqleed
of that mehhab or that
teacher. And then number 6,
is what's called Taazirat in the running of
an Islamic state. And we'll talk about that
potentially in the future. So this is Ijtinab
which we have to do. The second type
of Ijtinab is recommended and that's the
It's important to say that. That the are
those things that are disliked.
If we do them consistently without a reason,
they could lead us to the forbidden. So
that is from the Baaba' warah,
right? Or the Baaba' being,
not Warah but of being like more present
religiously, more adherent religiously.
The third type of Istinab, actually there's 3,
is to avoid the permissible
and that's from Babul Warah.
To avoid the permissible
so that I can
up my angelic state if you will, right?
That I can up my iman, excuse me,
that's what I'm looking for. I could up
my iman,
my, and as one of my teachers, you
know, said angelic,
is that the angels don't commit sins. So
I would say Ismatom kasei idim mada'ikah, the
angels and the prophets are the same. So
I get closer to that state by avoiding
sin. That's what I meant by that. So
the third is to avoid the permissible,
so that I increase my level of taqwa
and increase my level of warah, al hayyah
and consciousness.
This is the opposite of where society is
today. Now people, they ask for fatwas that
will allow them to do the forbidden.
In the earlier times, what made those Muslims
different, Masha'Allah,
is that wasn't the case.
They were looking for fatwas that would protect
them from falling into
dangerous components of the permissible.
SubhanAllah.
Of course we have to be careful with
that because
don't make forbidden what Allah has made permissible.
But
if someone wants to individually without harming themselves
and their family and those around them, avoid
certain components of the permissible in order to
discipline themselves to draw nearer to Allah,
There's nothing wrong with that. So he said,
Or thalath. Number 1 is, 3 levels of
Ijtineb, of avoidance. I have to.
It's recommended.
It's permissible for me to.
So
we'll stop here. This is the first part
of hadith. In this first axiom, I need
you to memorize it.
