Taimiyyah Zubair – Taleem al Quran 2021 J02-030C Tafsir Al-Baqarah 222

			Then in a sad way is Aluna Cardinal Mahila and they ask you about menstruation. Now the idea that
we're just going to read is of course talking about menstruation and sexual relations between
husband and wife. And I understand that this topic is extremely uncomfortable for many people to
even discuss or ask about or listen to. But the Sahaba asked the Prophet sallallahu earlier said
about menstruation. Okay, and Allah azza wa jal has mentioned this issue very clearly in the Quran
in detail, right? Now, this doesn't mean that we should not have any modesty in the manner that we
talk about these issues. Of course, we should, but our modesty should not prevent us from learning
		

			about these issues. And so I am going to have to be very clear. And it's possible that you hear
certain words which you don't like to listen to, or you find uncomfortable to listen to. But for the
purpose of clarity, I have to talk about these matters very openly. Why? Because these matters are
related to our worship. And these matters are related to our you know, servitude to Allah subhanaw
taala in every Muslim, every adult Muslim, both men and women must know clearly about these issues.
Right? Now, the Sahaba asked about my healed and I mentioned to you that my head refers to hailed
menstruation and also the time of menstruation, meaning the duration that a woman is menstruating
		

			and thirdly, the place of menstruation. Inshallah, we'll talk about that. Now, what exactly they
asked about Mahela is not specified here. Okay, Amy, what exactly were they asking about? Mohave?
Did they ask about its nature, the source of menstrual blood? Or the reason why women have menses?
No, that's not what they were asking about. What they were asking about. And we can understand that
from the answer that was given is whether it was permissible to have sexual * while a
woman is menstruating. Okay, so the question was that is it permissible for a man to have sexual
* with his wife while she is menstruating? Okay. Now, why did they ask this question? The
		

			reason is that the people in Medina, especially the unsought, the locals of Medina, they lived with
the Jews, and the belief of the Jews and the practices of the Jews certainly had an influence on the
unsought. Okay. And when you look at the belief or the practices of the Jews regarding women who are
menstruating any, it's very different. Okay. So for example, in the Bible in the Book of Leviticus
chapter 12, verse one to eight, it talks about the menstrual blood after childbirth. Okay. And in
that it says that basically a woman is, I'll just read it to you. It says, If a woman becomes
pregnant and gives birth to a son, she will be ceremonially unclean for seven days. Okay, on the
		

			eighth day, the boy's foreskin must be circumcised, and after waiting 33 days, she will be purified
from the bleeding of childbirth. During this time of purification, she must not touch anything that
is set apart as holy, and she must not enter the sanctuary until her time of purification is over.
If a woman gives birth to a daughter, she will be ceremonially unclean for two weeks, just as she is
unclean during her menstrual period. So different timing, depending on the birth of the son or the
daughter, and later on, it says that when her bleeding ends, then she must bring a one year old lamb
for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or turtledove. For a purification offering. She must bring
		

			her offerings to the priest at the entrance of the tabernacle. Basically, an entire ritual is to be
performed, so that she can be pure. Okay. And in the book of Leviticus chapter 15, verse 19, to 30.
It says whenever a woman has her menstrual period, she will be ceremonially unclean for seven days.
Listen to this part, anyone who touches her during that time will be unclean until evening. So not
the woman but anyone who touches her. So for example, if her husband touches her, okay, he is
unclean until evening. Anything on which the woman lies or sits during the time of her period will
also be unclean. So the bed is unclean, the chair is unclean, the bed sheets are unclean. If any of
		

			you touch her bed, you must wash your clothes and bathe yourself in water and you will remain
unclean until evening. So you see how the impurity is transferable. Okay, if you touch
		

			Any object she has sat on, you must wash your clothes and bathe yourself in water and you will
remain unclean until evening, so on and so forth. And it says if a man has sexual * with
her and her blood touches him, her menstrual impurity will be transmitted to him. Okay? So he will
remain unclean for seven days, and any bed on which he lies will be unclean. So you can see there's
a theme of how the woman herself is unclean while she's menstruating. Okay, and anything or anyone
that touches her also becomes unclean. Okay. So the Sahaba wondered that when a woman is
menstruating what is permissible, what is not permissible to what extent is it allowed for them to
		

			you know, have relations with their wives to be intimate with their wives to live with their wives?
So the answer is given that poll who are other farter Zillow Nisa, Phil Mahube, that say it is other
meaning menstruation is other fart as UniSA filmer here therefore keep away from your wives during
menstruation. Now, what does it mean by other? Remember I mentioned to you that it means a painful
condition. Okay. And secondly, it also means something that is unclean, meaning something that is
impure. So keep away from the women while they're menstruating. So for the duration of the menses
keep away. And in particular, what is meant is keep away from the place of menstruation. Okay from
		

			the place of menstruation, and that is the * meaning do not engage in vaginal * while she is
menstruating. Everything else is permissible. Now what does it mean by keeping away does keeping
away mean that you keep away like the Jews did? You don't touch you don't eat with her you don't sit
with her etcetera. No, keeping away does not mean complete avoidance that the entire person is
unclean. Okay. What is meant is that do not have sexual relations with her and bisexual relations.
What is specifically meant is vaginal *. We learned in a hadith Anasazi, Allah Horne who reported
that the Jews would not eat with a woman during her menstrual period. And the Sahaba wondered that
		

			is that something that they should also do and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No do
everything, except for it's not rucola Shagun Illa Nica do everything apart from sexual *.
And in another Hadith, you know, we learned about eyeshadow, the Longhorn her, and he she mentioned
that, you know, she would wash the hair of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam while she was
menstruating, he would lay on her lap, and he would put her head in her lap and recite Quran while
she was menstruating. And we also learned that, you know, she would eat from a piece of meat and she
would hand it to the Prophet sallallahu Oradea cinnamon, he would also eat from that same piece of
		

			meat, in fact, from the same place that she ate from while she was menstruating. She would drink
from a cup and the Prophet sallallahu or his son would drink from the same cup. All right, not just
the same cup, but the same spot that she drank from so far to Zulu, first of all, does not imply
that the entire person at that the woman is unclean to keep away from her. No, it just means that do
not have sexual relations with her. And again, that doesn't mean that any form of intimacy is
forbidden at this time. No only the place of hailed is to be avoided. Okay, only the place of Halal
is to be avoided. And that is the * because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said isn't
		

			a rucola Shane Illa Nica don't get confused by the word Manikarnika over here in the Hadith does not
mean marriage. It means sexual *. Okay? Because the word Nika also applies to that in the
Arabic language. So what this means is that the husband and wife can sexually enjoy one another
while the woman is menstruating. And the only thing that they need to avoid is vaginal *. But it
is sad that for many couples, the only form of intimacy that exists between them is vaginal *.
There is no other form of intimacy. There is no foreplay, no other form of show of affection,
nothing else. And the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam said is Miroku Leshy in everything, what is
		

			that everything? Many Muslims are unaware of that they don't even know what is permissible, what
they can do, or they have no interest in that. In a hadith we learned that Masaru went to Aisha de
la hora and her and said to her that I want to ask you about a matter but I am shy, and it's a very
awkward matter and I'm shy to ask you about it. And I shall Dylan Warren has said that I am your
mother. And you are my son not literally but remember the wives of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam are mothers to the bill.
		

			levers, right? So she said don't be shy. I'm your mother. So he asked his question that what can the
man enjoy of his wife when she is having her menses? And she said everything except her sexual
organ, meaning except her *, so everything else is permissible. So far does he know Nyssa, a
filmer hailed another thing I want you to notice over here is menstrual pain. It's difficulty is
something that is acknowledged over here that whole other and a lot of people undermine the painful
reality of menstruation. Think about it. If a woman is not to pray, or too fast while she is
menstruating, then why is it that we expect everything else from a woman while she's menstruating?
		

			And we dismiss the difficulty that she's experiencing?
		

			And also remember that other overhear does not necessarily mean harm. So, it may not be physically
harmful to have vaginal * at this time, but it is certainly other it is something that is impure.
Right? So this is why Allah subhanaw taala says boohoo other Fortezza UniSA filmer healed it is an
impurity, meaning menstrual blood is an impurity, therefore keep away, meaning do not have vaginal
* at this time, while women are menstruating. Where's Aluna, carnal? Mahube and they ask you about
menstruation. And regarding this, I mentioned that the Sahaba asked the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam regarding my healed, meaning regarding whether or not it was permissible for a man to be
		

			intimate with his wife during this time. And to what extent were people allowed to, you know, be in
contact with menstruating women? And the reason why they had this doubt or this question was because
of the practices of the People of the Book. And there was a recurring question that the people of
the book are they the same as they are today, you know, who are the Jews and the Christians that are
mentioned in the Quran. So remember that the Jews and the Christians are literally the people have
the book, meaning that people who believe in the Torah in the Injeel, remember that the Jews only
believe in the Torah, Christians believe in both the Torah and Injeel. However, it's understood that
		

			even at the time of the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi, wasallam, the Torah, the Injeel, were not in the
form that Allah subhanaw taala had revealed it, they had changed the book, quite a lot, they had
lost parts of the book, they had invented parts of the book, removed parts of the book, even at the
time of the Prophet sallallahu IRQs know that, you know, this had happened. And the Quran mentions
this, right. And we have learned about in earlier in Surah, Al Baqarah, about how they would change
the book, change the words of Allah subhanaw taala. And this did not stop at the time of the Prophet
salAllahu alayhi wasallam it continued to happen even after the prophets of Allah who already
		

			husana. So it doesn't matter how much they have changed their book, how much they have changed their
actions, their practices. So for example, the Christians, they believe in the toe rot, but they
don't believe that they have to observe the law, because they believe that God's grace goes against
God's law. So basically, now with the coming of reciting the salon, they don't need to observe the
law anymore. But even though they believe this, they're still considered People of the Book. All
right. So even though the book has been changed, the laws have been changed. The laws have been
abandoned by the people of the book, they're still considered the People of the Book. All right. And
		

			the passages that I mentioned to you from the Bible, they are from the First Testament from the
tobot. And yes, the Jews and the Christians both believe in that the Jews practice that the
Christians don't, but still it is part of their book. Now, where did it come from? In the book? Were
these the laws that were given to them? Or did they invent these laws? We don't know that, right?
And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam told us to neither confirm the verses of the Torah and
the NG, nor to deny, okay, because we don't know whether these verses are exactly as they were
revealed, or the people change them. We don't know that. And there is no way of investigating that
		

			either. And another thing what you should remember is that, in general, you will find that the laws
that were given to the Jews were extremely difficult, okay. And we learned about this in the Quran
that one of the reasons why the law was made difficult for them was as a punishment for them, when
they continue to, you know, for example, argue with the prophets, like how they kept asking question
after question after a question for Musashi he sent out regarding the slaughtering of the cow. And
when they kept violating the limits that they were given and altered the laws they were given. The
laws were made even more difficult for them.
		

			All right, yes, the Bible is very clear about how a menstruating woman is basically unclean, her
clothing is unclean, anything she touches is unclean. Any person that touches her is unclean. Any
person that sits on the bed that she sat on is unclean, so on and so forth. But we don't know
whether these were the teachings that they were given by Allah subhanaw taala, or whether they
modified them. But the point is, that the people of the book at the time of the Prophet sallallahu,
alayhi, wasallam, you know, as Jabil will do a lot more on who reported they would not sit or eat
with their menstruating women, they would not do that. So this was the practice of the Jews, the
		

			Christians, on the other hand, you know, for them, there was no issue of the Hot or Not the hot or
no issue whatsoever. They were on the other extreme end. And so the Sahaba asked that, what are we
supposed to do? What are the rules for us? So then these verses were revealed? All right. So yes,
Aluna Cardinal Mahal, they ask you about my health, about menstruation. And remember that the
meaning of my healed is menstruation itself. It can also refer to the time when a woman is
menstruating. And it can also refer to the place of menstruation. Right. So where's Alana, Karen and
Mahipal, who are others say it is other and by other it can mean painful condition, right? Meaning a
		

			woman is in a difficult condition. And secondly, who are other can also refer to that it is
something that is unclean, right? That is dirty. So therefore fart as UniSA filmer, he'll keep away
from your wives during menstruation. And keeping away doesn't mean that you don't touch them. Don't
sit with them, don't eat with them. Rather, keeping away means do not have sexual * with
them. Because it is Phil Mohib during the time of Halo, meaning while she is bleeding at that time,
keep away. So Paula Martha's UniSA filmer, he'll keep away from your wives during menstruation. And
then while at the caribou Hoonah had Dieter Horner and do not approach them until they are pure. And
		

			what is meant by approaching them means do not have sexual * until they have become clean.
And what is meant by Johanna is that the menstrual blood completely stops, okay, meaning until her
period has completely ended. So what at the caribou Nahata Tahuna Now, one thing I want you to
understand is that my healed any, when you're talking about vaginal bleeding, there could be
different reasons, okay. One is that a woman is having her monthly cycle. Another is that this is
lochia any after giving birth, which is also called New PFASs in Arabic, you know, another reason
could be, for example, a woman is always bleeding, you know, there could be some problem inside like
		

			for example, she may have fibroids or some other condition because of which she is constantly
bleeding. All right. So it's necessary to understand what Mahal is and what Mahila is not okay. So,
the rulings that are given here, that fourth Osito Nyssa a filmer healed this applies to the monthly
cycle alright. And secondly, it applies to the bleeding after giving birth, okay, it does not apply
to is the helper is the helper is something different, literally is to Hello means excessive help,
okay? Meaning the bleeding that is beyond the menstrual period. Okay. And the reason could be any,
the reason could be hormonal imbalance. The reason could be internal injury. The reason could be
		

			like I mentioned fibroids, endometriosis, etc. There could be different reasons. Okay. So for St.
helva, which is bleeding that is not periods for that a woman is still required to pray, and fast.
And she's also allowed to have sexual relations. All right, during is to holla because it is not my
healed. Okay, it is not hailed. And for the other two cases while a woman is menstruating, she's not
going to pray. She's not going too fast. And she's also not allowed to have sexual relations, et
cetera. Now, a lot of women get confused about the beginning and the ending of their period. Okay.
One thing Every woman should know is that if it looks like a period and it feels like a period, it
		

			is a period. Okay, it is hailed and every woman knows her body. She knows how she feels when she has
her period. The kind of cramps that she has
		

			You know, the kind of bleeding that she's having. So if it looks like it if it feels like it, okay,
it is a period. However, the maximum duration for hailed remember the maximum absolute max is what?
15 days, some orlimar say 10 days, but 15 days, okay, it's the absolute max. So for example, if a
woman is, you know, having her period and the bleeding is just not stopping, it still feels like it
still looks like it. Now 15 days, okay have gone by, she will still treat it like her period. Okay,
but 16 day begins, what is she going to do? She is going to take a bath and she's going to start
praying even though she is bleeding. Okay, she will begin to pray. Alright, and she's allowed to
		

			have * even though she is bleeding. Okay, why? Because it is no longer hailed.
		

			Okay. Now, another thing is that some women, what happens with them is that their period doesn't
just begin, you know, what happens is that for a few days, they will have spotting here and there.
And then finally, they will have a good flow, and then the period will gradually fade away. So this
entire time from when the spotting begins until the spotting completely disappears, that entire time
will be taken as a period it will be considered a period. But if the duration of that is more than
15 days, then she has to stop at the 15 today and begin to pray. All right. And another thing is
that when it comes to haled, how do you know that your period has ended? There's basically two
		

			indicators. Okay. One is that the vaginal discharge now is completely clear. Okay, there is no
brownish discharge, there's no streaks of blood, it's just completely clear. Okay? Or secondly,
there's complete dryness. These are the main two indicators. All right. So while at the caribou
Hoonah had the year tahona until they are pure. Now I'm sure you have more questions about haled.
And if I start talking about the field of Halal right now, we're not going to be able to complete
the lesson. So we have to move on in sha Allah, I'm sure Inshallah, in this course, you will be
taught the field of the Hatha and in the field of taharah you will be taught the field of Hadith
		

			also. Okay. And I'm sure a lot of your questions will be answered over there and a lot of matters
will also be clarified. Inshallah, one question that was asked was regarding miscarriage So, when it
comes to miscarriage, it depends on when it happens, okay? If it's earlier than the bleeding is not
considered the bleeding off, you know, post birth okay. And therefore, that bleeding is not
considered my healed. So, the woman will continue to pray and fast etcetera. But if it happens later
on in the pregnancy, then it will be considered halal. So basically depends on whether the fetus is
considered a child or not. Okay, so we'll add the caribou Nahata Tahuna for either Tata horna. Then
		

			when they have purified themselves, to Han Nam In Hazel Amara Kamala then come to them from where
Allah has ordained for you. Now for either Tata Horner, I mentioned this to you earlier, but I want
to clarify again, that there's a difference between what Dieter Horner and for EDA Tata, Haryana had
Daya Tahuna means the bleeding ends and for either Tata Horner means that they have taken a bath.
Okay, so one thing you should be aware of that do not take a bath until your bleeding has completely
ended. Okay? This doesn't mean you're not allowed to shower during your period. Of course you are,
what I mean is the hosel of the horror. Okay, the hustle of purification. So only take that bath
		

			only do that after you know your period has ended. And do not rush in ending your period in the
sense that don't be impatient. Okay, let your body take its course it's time. So sometimes for
example, what happens is the woman is just seeing some color discharge for an entire day. And that's
okay, that's still part of your period. Okay, wait to see the sign of purity. Once you see the sign
of purity, then go ahead and take a bath and you must do so as soon as possible. Why because you
have to perform the salah now, so don't delay taking your bath. All right. So for either Tata Hana
and when it comes to taking the bath the hustle, the hustle is simply a hustle in which you bait you
		

			wash your entire body including your hair. So if you braided your hair in such a way that the water
will not wash all of the hair than you will have to make sure that you unbraid your hair you open it
up fully because the scalp the entire
		

			Higher skin and the hair of the body, everything needs to be washed. All right, and there isn't
anything that you have to recite before you take a bath. I remember once a girl said to me that
before she takes her bath, she recites the three colds on your kulula How cool are the beautiful
fella called out with a bit of bananas, like three times each, and I don't know what ritual she had
made up basically for herself. Just because you are in your period, it doesn't mean that you have
become an unclean person. Okay, it doesn't mean that you are not a Muslim anymore, you know, it's
just your body that needs to be washed. Okay. And when it comes to taking the hosel like I
		

			mentioned, what you have to make sure is that the water reaches all of your body, all of your skin,
and also your hair, including the inside of your nose. Like for example you make wudu So, you can
make this as a habit that when you're taking a shower make will do and your Hatha will be complete
Inshallah, so far either to the hudna when they have purified themselves to Hoonah mean hi to Amara
Kamala, then come to them from where Allah has ordained for you. Now, what this means is that, first
of all the hosel should be after the period has ended. All right. And secondly, it is only after the
whistle after the bath, that she can have sexual *. All right. So, don't wanna come to
		

			them after they have purified themselves. All right. And then thirdly, what we learned in this ayah
is that photo nemen, Hazel, Amara Comala that come to them from where Allah has ordained for you,
okay. So, now guidelines are given regarding sexual *. So for either Tata hudna, or what
is required is his bathing the body. Okay, just bathing the body, it doesn't mean that a woman also
has to remove, you know, pubic hair at the time. No, she doesn't have to. There are other guidelines
regarding that, which are that basically, any Muslim man or woman should not leave their pubic hair
more than 40 days, okay? Meaning within 40 days in less than 40 days, they must clean themselves,
		

			they must remove that hair. Now, if a woman wants to do that, when she's taking her bath after her
period, she can do that. But if she doesn't want to do that at the time, she doesn't have to it is
not part of the whistle. All right, this is not part of the hosel we'll do is but removing the hair
is not okay. So for either Tata Hana to Hoonah mean hi to Amara Kamala, now talking about come to
them from where Allah has ordained for you. What does it mean by this here? There is permission of
* *. What is meant is men are specifically addressed here have * with women from where Allah
has ordained for you and what is meant is in the *, all right. In a hadith we learned the
		

			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah is not shy of the truth. Allah is not shy of the
truth. Allah is not shy of the truth, do not come to women in their backsides, meaning do not have a
null sec. So this is something that is forbidden. All right. And then it is said in the Lucha you
hibbott the webinar where you hibel Matata herein, indeed Allah loves those who are constantly
repentant, and Allah loves those who purify themselves. Okay. Allah loves those who make Toba and
Allah loves those who do the the hood meaning who clean themselves. Now, here we see that internal
and external Tahara All right, both are mentioned in this idea. And it is mentioned that Allah
		

			subhanaw taala loves the people who cleanse themselves internally and externally. Now, why is the
elbow mentioned over here in the law you have buta webbing, any this ayah doesn't really talk about
sins if you think about it, but at the end, we are encouraged to make the elbow because remember
Tobor what it means is that you are leaving your sin. All right, and you're turning to Allah, you're
leaving your sin and you're turning to Allah, you're changing your ways, your habits, you are
leaving haram and you're going to halal, okay. And Allah loves that in a person. And sometimes, you
know, a person has to change their very private habits, okay? Even sexual habits a person has to
		

			change sexual preferences, even a person may have to change if a person makes that change for the
sake of Allah. Allah subhanaw taala loves that in a person in the law you could put the well being
and were you humble Matata, hearin. Allah loves those who clean themselves. You know husen is
required after hailed so after the period ends a woman is required to take a bath and also whistle
is required after July
		

			The meaning when a man or woman when they engage in sexual activity, than they have to take a bath,
they have to wash their body, right and in that, remember the entire body has to be washed. And for
a woman, and even for men, washing hair is not required, okay? But the entire skin of the body has
to be washed. Okay? Sometimes people find it very difficult to wash their body at that time, right?
It's very uncomfortable, it's very annoying, or they feel like they have to take a bath again and
again, it becomes burdensome, but if you remember this is where you hipbone Mutata herein, Allah
loves those who clean themselves who purify themselves, then taking that shower also becomes easy,
		

			and it actually becomes rewardable It's something for which a person is rewarded. It's something
through which a person draws closer to Allah subhanaw taala amazing. So in Allah you hibbott A
webbing when you have one, Matata hitting, now remember that also have hailed okay meaning also that
is required after hail for that, like I mentioned, hair and body both have to be washed, whistle of
Gen Abba. Okay, loosen off Genova for that, just washing of the body is required, meaning if your
hair is for example, tied in a bun, or you have many braids, alright, you don't have to undo all of
those braids, but what you have to make sure is that the water reaches your scalp fully the skin of
		

			your head is fully wet, it must get thoroughly washed. Okay. So, while you have been with the
thought, hey, this is the hosel of Geneva hosel of Geneva is required when when is it required? The
hosel of Deneb is required when a person engages in sexual activity and then there is sexual
discharge. Okay. Now, that sexual discharge could be on being intimate with one spouse. Okay? Any a
person has sexual relations with their spouse, okay? Or it could be the result of a * even.
Okay, the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam was asked by one of the women of the unsought she asked
that Allah is not shy of the truth is a woman required to take hosel when she has a *, and
		

			the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam said yes, when she sees map, meaning when she wakes up and
she sees that she's wet, even if the wetness is you know just a little bit but she knows that this
is because of what she experienced in her dream, then she is required to take horses. All right, men
and women both have to take also on having a *. So in the law, you hibbott the webbing when
you're hipbone Matata hearing now where you Hipple with a hit in Allah loves those who wash
themselves to clean themselves purify themselves, this includes washing yourself as in making will
do okay and will do is required when you have to pray and you're not in a state of purification
		

			because you use the bathroom, etcetera. Then this also includes taking hosel and hosel is required
when a woman has ended her period or a person was in a state of Geneva. All right, but cleaning
yourself is not limited to just making wudu and making muscle because in certain Mudassir i a three
and four Allah subhanaw taala says what up Becca for cabbage with the Abacha, Fatah here and your
Lord magnify meaning Declare the greatness of your Lord say Allahu Akbar, and your clothes you must
clean so we have to make sure that yes, we make will do for Salah we take also when required. All
right, but our codes are also clean. Now, of course you want to make sure that there's no no Jassa
		

			on your clothing. There is no impurity on your clothing. But that's not all. You also make sure that
your clothes are not dirty. They're not smelly. And the Prophet sallallahu Urdu Cena was very, very
particular about this. You know, the Prophet sallallahu already has an award this black shawl once
that was made of wool, okay. And eyeshadow de la noir and her when she narrated about this, you
know, she described how beautiful the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam looked with that shawl,
okay, because it was black and his skin was, you know, very fair. And so she just described how
beautiful he looked in that child. However, after some time, that he was an upper garment basically,
		

			when it began to smell and you will notice this with woolen things, because you can't really wash
them, right because if you wash it, it shrinks. Alright. So when it began to smell
		

			Oh, the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam stopped wearing it, he did not stop wearing it because there
was some impurity on it. No, he stopped wearing it because it was smelling. Okay. So this means that
we should also be careful about the overall cleanliness of our bodies off our clothes off our
environment, and this is part of our deen. Okay, that our clothes should not smell. So before you
put on a sweater before you put on a hijab, before even you put on your jacket, smell it, you know,
smell the armpit area, smell the, the front, the back or whatever, that you feel might be dirty. And
please don't, you know, just spray it with a whole lot of perfume because that combination of sweat
		

			and perfume is a terrible combination, it's even more disgusting. So clean the clothes properly. And
