Together is to provide you with
things that I've heard from teachers that help
us read classical texts.
And sometimes that may get a little complicated
and that's my apology. That's my mistake.
Right? As as someone who's trying to teach,
that's on me. That's not on you.
But one of the things that you'll notice
that pops up as you're reading, if you're
following along with me in Al HaTab's,
you know, explanation or even Sayna Imam Jalaruddin
Mihali's explanation, you'll notice that sometimes it says
It is said. It is said. It is
said. Right?
And actually is what Imam Ibn Hisham calls
right, is the passive verb whose subject isn't
mentioned.
Oftentimes referred by some people as.
And as I heard from one of my
my teachers,
years ago,
Because, like, nothing is really.
Right? You know, you're gonna say.
You know, the earth was created.
We
don't say Allah is
so like
But anyways, the question is then what does
this mean? Because it's called in in Islamic
studies,
sirat
tamreed.
Tamreed from maraud like being ill.
And you're going to see this as we
read together, and
at SWISS at my school, I'm going to
read the entire
explanation of Al Halpab inshallah in the future,
and we'll share it with the people.
But you're gonna find
It is said. It was said. It is
said.
This is called
with God.
Means
a sick
form,
a weak
form.
And, you know, as I heard from from
one of my teachers, doctor Mohammed
Wissam,
that, you know, the challenge in understanding
classical text
lies in
the forms,
understanding terms,
and the meanings of the
the meanings of the pronouns. Like, if someone
gets that, then they won't have trouble understanding
usually,
these texts when they're they're reading with somebody.
So this form in in in classic studies,
as I heard from doctor Abdus Salam,
carries with it one of 3 meanings and
this also is in language.
The first is
the
the person who said it is unknown.
The second
is that it's a weak opinion.
It's a weak opinion. It's not strong.
And,
the 4th is
Like instead of saying
Khdisar means to, like, you know, summarize it
and make things smoother and quicker.
Here's what I need you to remember that
I heard from one of my teachers that
I think is very important for you to
know in general, not all the time. When
you're reading a metan,
right, like or
or,
you know,
Alfi Tabim Marik, or or, you know,
If you find within it the word
for example.
If you find in the metin the word
it's for Ikhtysar.
Because the job of the metin is to
keep things brief.
So within the mutun,
When you're looking at the explanation
of those small texts,
the Shar or the Hasia,
in the books of Usolofek
in particular,
And you find the word kiel. And also
this applies to other knowledges as well. When
you find the word kiel, other sciences,
it means
it's a weak opinion.
It's a weak opinion.
So again, this is very important for those
of you, maybe you're in the academy, maybe
you're studying,
with somebody and you had this question.
As again, the supplemental information
that comes along with this text is meant
to help you.
When you find the word kiel, you know,
it was said. It it it it was
said.
It could be for one of three reasons,
right? Number 1,
of course, in Quran and rhetoric, these have
different meanings. We're talking now about within
the kind of pedagogical framework of classic Islam.
3 potential meanings. Number 1 is unknown who
said it. Number 2, it's a weak opinion.
Number 3, to abbreviate things. We said if
we're reading the motun, kiel is for in
general. In general, there's always exceptions to the
rule.
Right? But in general, as I heard from
my teachers,
it here applies in the mutun to summarizing
things.
In the hashiya or in the shah
of any of the mutun,
it means what?
A weak opinion. We ask Allah
to bless us, increase us.
