Just making sure I got it all together
here.
You will never guess how many times
we've recorded things and then found out something
is wrong or or or whatnot. So
But welcome to our class on worship. Let's
step back. Center yourself. Get in the mood.
Right? Allow yourself don't feel intimidated. You know,
religion.
No. No. Relax.
Chill. Get
into
a good place. Think of good thoughts. Think
of good places.
Imagine every breath
in this moment, you're being rewarded by Allah
for trying to be one of those who
who, like, lives.
You alone we worship and you alone we
seek for help. May Allah make us from
those people.
We have been reading from the text, the
introductory text,
and we reach now at chapter. He says,
babuatayamum.
The word bab literally means a door. In
Arabic,
So why would scholars
call chapters Bab? Because metaphorically, the idea here
is
that I'm I'm I'm I'm moving from a
state of ignorance to knowledge. So I'm going
into a new place. Also, it reminds us
of etiquette because when I walk into someone's
home through their door as a guest, I
have certain etiquettes,
and they are going to greet me with
certain etiquettes. Thus, the word bab encapsulates the
etiquettes of the student and the teacher. SubhanAllah.
And also a bad door reminds us of
Abwabul Jannah, the gates of Jannah. So the
student and the teacher are reminded to be
sincere
in their efforts to teach and learn.
The word
actually is from a word which means to
to intend something.
Like don't want filth.
Don't want evil.
In Islamic law,
is defined
as a form of tahara done with dirt.
Which includes wiping the face and the hands
with intention.
So one more time
that this is a form of
purification,
which is using dirt,
which is going to include
wiping the face and wiping the hands to
the wrist,
with
the intention.
It tells us a lot about this act
now.
A falls under what's called
with
are those
acts which are allowed
by Islam
to replace
a regulatory
act like
fasting the month of Ramadan a regular act,
excuse me, like fasting the month of Ramadan,
like wudu. Those are things that we have
to do on default. But there are times
when we are allowed
to step away from performing them in that
way because of legitimate reasons
identified by Islamic law that is called a
ruksa.
In Arabic means a license like
to drive a car.
So here Allah is giving us license, if
you will, dispensation
to avoid making wudu for whatever reason we're
gonna talk about soon, insha Allah.
And now observing a Tayam mum, a license
to step away from rusl
and make Tayamom
for certain reasons.
Okay? Because this is an act of worship
that is taught to us mentioned in the
Quran
and
also in the practice of the prophet
there are going to be obligatory components.
There are going to be components of it
that are sunnah,
right, which are were constantly practiced by the
prophet
And then there are going to be what's
called al Fadila. We talked about this before.
Those things which he did from time to
time, but not all the time.
For the shayikh, he says
If you take Arabic with me, you see
doesn't have tanween. Why? This is
Why? Because
that form. This is for students who take
Arabic with me. I like to teach thematically,
so sometimes I may mention something in another
course
just so we can tie things together and
give each other the opportunity
to practice. So if you go take Arabic,
you're probably going to see me in the
section on
like and
found in our fit class. So they were
able to tie it together. So the sheikh,
he says
obligations
of Tiamum
as for the obligations of Tiamum, excuse me,
therefore.
So what are we going to talk about
today are the obligations
of Tayam mum, those four obligations,
with their evidences, Insha'Allah.
The first he says, Aniya
is intention. Why? Because the prophet
said in the hadith of the hadith of
the hadith of the
Then he says wahiya. And this is very
beautiful. This is like a what's called jumlahatafsiriyah.
It's going to explain how to make niyyah.
Because of course, someone may say, like, what
do I intend when I make tayamum? I
know when I'm making wudu, I intend to
make wudu so I can pray.
So
he
says, that with
the you do not seek to remove the
impurity,
but you seek to make prayer
permissible.
This is different. With wudu, I'm seeking to
When I make wudu,
I'm intending to remove the impurities so I
can pray.
And here you get into something kind of
cool. I'm not gonna elaborate on it too
much now, but here you can see how
these are the minds of legal theorists and
lawyers,
and that is that the say
does not remove the impurity. The impurity is
still there.
But what it does is because of its
intention,
the intention of observing as
it was taught to us in the Quran
and sunnah,
this permits you to enter the prayer. Right?
You can pray, but it doesn't remove the
impurity. That's why later on when you find
water, I find water, we have to wash
off that impurity.
Something like kind of cool. And you find
that there's a difference of opinion amongst
the on this, as well as in the
Madhab as we're gonna talk about like right
now. Now. He says
He says because
does not remove the impurity.
Means when you hear the word
in the Maliki books, it means that there's
a difference of opinion.
And
the
We say that Mashor is as mentioned by
Imam Sahib Al Hashiyat,
the Hashiyyah on,
on Abi Zaid, I can't remember his name
now. Imam al Saeedi,
that
the
excuse me. That
Mashhur means what most of the scholars agree
on and what the evidence supports. Like there's
more evidence for it, but there is a
difference of opinion within the med heb. So
he says, what's the difference of opinion over
Does Tiamo remove the impurity? So, like, if
I make Tiamo, do I have to wash
later or not?
Or does the nia remove the impurity, which
means
the impurity is still there, but I'm allowed
to pray. And that's the majority of the
Malekis.
What's the evidence for this is the hadith
of Amr Maas,
who mentions,
that he was dispatched
for a battle
during the time of the prophet.
And, you know,
during
this time he experienced, he says,
he says that he had a *.
He said, I had a * and
it was extremely
cold.
Extremely cold.
He said, so I was scared that if
I made rusul, I would die.
So I made tayam Here we see something.
You know, Amr al Ma'als is not known
as being a faqih
amongst the Sahaba. He's not someone that has
taken fatwa from from the Sahaba like, Salamah.
For example, we take fit from her.
But still, the prophet's community
has enough freedom to think
and to live. Now we see religious discourse
in the Muslim community, it shuts people down.
And the reason it shuts people down is
perhaps people are so insecure because they haven't
scaled and scaffold by educating people.
Even though he is
a not known as a or
a Mufti.
Still, he see, he's been educated in a
way that allows him to navigate difficult issues.
Are we educating Muslims in North America and
other parts of the world to use religion
to think through difficult issues? No.
And that's a disaster.
Allah says,
