00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			But it's stay away from it, right?
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			And we know that so many of our
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:08
			arguments or so many problems in society is
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			saved and solved Just if we stay quiet
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			many times yes or no We can all
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			think in our life back to some point
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			where you know, if I just didn't say
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			that that time Then this wouldn't have happened
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			Right.
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			So Allah teaches us in the month of
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:27
			Ramadan that some of these things are permissible
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			for you, but hold back Don't do it
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34
			Right, and then number three we mentioned unity
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			We mentioned that in the month of Ramadan
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			we see more and more people coming to
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			the masjid Right, and I mentioned that in
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			the masjid the masjid may be on the
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			on the surface of this planet It is
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			what shows you equality amongst people The masjid
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			is the most equal place that you will
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:53
			find.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			I'll give you an example People that stand
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			in Saf, is there any preference for if
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			you are rich or poor or you are
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			white or black or brown or Asian, is
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			there any preference?
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			No The only preference in one hadith in
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:16
			Jami'at Tirmidhi, the Prophet ﷺ said The
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			people of understanding should be the ones that
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			are directly behind me the reason for this
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:24
			is because sometimes the The Imam might lose
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			wudu or might become unconscious or whatever.
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			He's incapacitated So you need someone who is
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			capable to do istikhlaf, to take his place
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:38
			so We find equality and unity That is
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			represented in the month of Ramadan.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			So these are some of the wisdoms that
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:43
			we discussed then we mentioned, you know the
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			Definition of fasting right?
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			We also mentioned the things that are makrooh
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52
			while fasting that are disliked We also talked
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55
			about the things that are masnoon, sunnah while
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58
			fasting Some of the things that are sunnah
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			while fasting, do you remember?
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			There are a few things that we mentioned,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:10
			a few key important things Those are sunnah
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			fast, those we'll cover today inshallah, but what
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			is sunnah while we are fasting?
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:16
			Does anyone know?
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:25
			One of the sunnahs is To Eat Suhoor
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			very close to the time of the end
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:28
			of suhoor.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			We remember this?
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			There's one hadith that we mentioned from Sahih
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			al-Bukhari What does the Sahabi say about
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam?
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:38
			How many ayat could be recited between when
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam began to
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			eat and sunrise?
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			Do you remember?
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46
			50, 30 I gave the example of surat
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:50
			al-mulk Mashallah good memory so 50 ayat
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			The Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam between the
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			time he started and between the time sunrise
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:58
			would happen or not sunrise But dawn, fajr
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			time would kick in.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			You could read 50 ayat.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			That's not a very long time about 10
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			to 15 minutes, right?
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			Then we also talked about one of the
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			sunnahs which is that as soon as time
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			comes we should hasten to break the fast
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:14
			I mentioned that the Shia They some of
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			the fiqhi schools of the Shia they believe
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			in fasting all the way till Isha time
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			All right, so to delay is not something
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24
			that is recommended sometimes, you know The calendar
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			will say a time and then we'll say,
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			you know, we wait 10 minutes after that.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			Is that reasonable?
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:32
			It's not reasonable Five minutes even five minutes.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			We should maybe two three minutes if you
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			want to be safe, but you know in
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:38
			today's time This is the most accurate timing
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:41
			that we have gotten ever and maybe human
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:42
			history, right?
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			We know exactly at what time the Sun
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			sets.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:48
			We have very accurate astronomical information about that
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:52
			so Maybe one or two minutes you can
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			wait and you can also look outside you
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			can see you know But to delay, you
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			know, five minutes ten minutes, then this is
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:02
			delaying it a little too much, right?
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:08
			Usually we ask at the end inshallah If
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:09
			you want you can ask and I'll answer
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:10
			at the end.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21
			It's a very good question I'll I'll come
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			to it at the end inshallah.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			Well, actually it will be part of small
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:25
			part of our talk today.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			Okay So we talked about we talked about
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			Sunnah things.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			We talked about makruh acts during fasting, right?
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			We talked about Things that break the fast
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:38
			the difference between qada and kaffarah, right?
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			What is qada?
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			What is kaffarah?
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			What is qada?
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			Yeah, so very good.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:50
			So qada is you miss for example one
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			fast in Ramadan You never started fasting and
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			then you make that up and there are
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			other scenarios also where qada can happen Kaffarah
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:58
			means you have to fast 60 days consecutively
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:01
			And if the if somebody starts the 60
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			days and in between they break it then
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:03
			what happens?
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			They have to restart again, right and then
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:10
			we talked about a person who cannot do
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			kaffarah by fasting like a person who is
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			older or a person who has a medical
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:18
			condition and They cannot do a kaffarah then
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			what is the ruling for them?
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			I mentioned something another option before that not
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			an option, but what you're supposed to do
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:29
			before that If the person can fast during
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			winter Remember this right?
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:32
			We talked about this.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:35
			So if the person can fast during winter
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:39
			Then like if because winter daytime is shorter
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			So if somebody can fast during those hours
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			Then that's when you're supposed to do the
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			30 days at that time And if somebody
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			cannot then you pay the fidya and what
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:51
			was the amount of fidya two meals a
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:56
			day two meals a day No For one
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			person two meals a day every day for
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:02
			30 days basically, right and If a person
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			does not give an actual meal, then the
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			monetary amount what is the monetary amount per
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:06
			meal?
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:13
			Basically the the fitra amount It's half of
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			a saar of a of wheat basically Which
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:19
			is basically 1.6 kilograms of wheat the
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:19
			market value of that.
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			That's the fitra amount by the way I
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			don't know if there was a discussion about
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:27
			what exactly zakatul fitr is Did you guys
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:27
			have that session?
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			I think Sheikh Junaid must have mentioned it.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			So we know that there are different types
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35
			of Sadaqatul fitr that can be given the
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:36
			wheat amount.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:38
			There's the dates amount raisins amount, right?
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			These are all different amounts that we can
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			give but in any case, so basically Times
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			60 so fitra amount times 10.
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48
			Let's say times 60 600 roughly.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			That's what the person would have to pay
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			Okay, and then so we've made the difference
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			between qadha and kafara and we went over
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:57
			some Scenarios, which ones require qadha which one
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:00
			require kafara and then I gave a principle
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03
			I gave one principle for when kafara is
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			due and when qadha is due One general
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			principle that helps us with all the scenarios.
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:08
			Does anyone remember the principle?
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:15
			You have to learn these if you learn
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			these then you can become a mufti I'm
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			just joking, but it'll make your life easier
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			This this is one principle that I mentioned
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			that you won't even have to ask questions
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26
			If you know this principle, the principle is
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			something has to go through the GI tract
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:33
			Everyone remembers this the GI tract the gastrointestinal
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:36
			tract basically which starts from the mouth and
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:40
			basically the two extremities That we have in
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			the body and then we went over some
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:44
			scenarios like for example, if a person takes
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			an injection Would that break their fast?
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:48
			No, right because that doesn't go through the
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:51
			GI tract So and then we also mentioned
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:53
			another principle that something has to be edible
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:56
			like if a person eats stones This does
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:59
			not require kafara only qadha.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			You guys remember the principle, right?
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:04
			So the principle is that something is ingested
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			through the GI tract that is generally edible
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			That's the principle and if you have if
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			you remember this principle, then inshallah you're set
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:15
			You won't have to you know, ask too
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:20
			many questions It doesn't have to do the
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:21
			size of the food But we did mention
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			one scenario in which the size of the
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			food is considered Like for example, if a
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			person already had food in their mouth before
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			Fajr time came in, right?
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			You know, sometimes you eat suhoor and some
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			leftovers, right?
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			You might have a piece of meat like
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			stuck in your tooth or something Does anyone
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			remember the ruling for this then Fajr time
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			came in then you swallowed that piece of
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			meat then what happens?
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:44
			What's the ruling for that?
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:49
			If it's less than a chickpea Then it's
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			okay if it's more than a chickpea depends
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			if it's intentional or unintentional it will be
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:56
			either qadha or kafara Okay, so this was
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:57
			some review.
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			So inshallah today we can get into our
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:00
			discussion.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:04
			So today what we'll discuss is Generally fasting
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			there are different categories of fasting.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			Okay, some types of fast, you know, like
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:10
			salat for example There are different categories of
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			salat some some salawat are fard some salawat
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:17
			are sunnah Some salawat are you can say
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			wajib some salawat are nafl, right?
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			So just like that, there are also categories
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:26
			of fasting And I'll go over each one
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:26
			of them.
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			There are seven different categories.
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:32
			Number one is fard Obligatory, I'm sure everyone
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:35
			here can guess which ones are fard which
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:38
			ones The fast of Ramadan, this is fard,
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:38
			right?
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:40
			If somebody says, you know, I don't feel
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:41
			like fasting.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			This is okay It's not okay.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:46
			This is something that is an obligation for
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:49
			obviously those who are able to and then
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:53
			Within the fast of Ramadan, there's ada and
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:56
			there's qadha Right ada means that you've offered
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:58
			it at the time of Ramadan qadha means
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00
			that you make it up later Right, both
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:00
			of these are fard.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:02
			So to do qadha later.
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:06
			This is also fard, to do qasara, this
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:10
			is also fard and Then the the fast
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:14
			that are of nathar, nathar in the books
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:17
			of fiqh It's mentioned is basically in Urdu
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:20
			we say mannat manna, right?
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:23
			mannat basically means like You say oh Allah
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:26
			if you make me pass this exam if
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:29
			I become a doctor then Allah will fast
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			this many days We understand what nathar is,
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:33
			mannat.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			So if a person does nathar then this
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:41
			is also fard to To perform this fast
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			because we've made a promise with Allah.
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:48
			The next category is wajib If a person
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:52
			starts anything nafl to complete it is wajib
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:55
			For example, if a person starts two rakat
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:58
			of nafl salat But something happens in between
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			they have to break their salat and they
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:03
			have to go To remake this, to re
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:05
			-offer this is wajib Does this make sense?
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:07
			Anything nafl that has been started.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			It's wajib now to complete it Same thing
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			with fasts.
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			If a person has the habit of doing
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:15
			some sunnah fast or some, you know nafl
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:19
			fast Mustahab fast then to make this up
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			is also wajib.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			So it's not optional For example, what are
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			some scenarios when a person would have to
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			break their fast, nafl fast Even the Prophet
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:30
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam recommended that a person
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:33
			should break their fast at that time Do
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:33
			we know?
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:39
			Okay a medical emergency, that's one.
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:40
			What else?
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:42
			Very good.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			Well not invited to eat But if you
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			have guests, if you have guests in your
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:49
			home and it will make the guests feel
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:52
			uncomfortable that they eat alone Then in that
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			case the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam recommended
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:58
			us to actually Break the fast.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:01
			So to make up that fast This is
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:06
			actually wajib Okay, sunnah fast is To fast
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:08
			on the 10th of Muharram.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:11
			This is called sawm-u ashura right, so
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:14
			to to fast one day before or one
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			day after so 9 and 10 or 10
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:20
			and 11 some ulema say that you can
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			it's better even to fast all three days
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:23
			Right.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:25
			So 9 10 11 some ulema have said
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:27
			this some scholars of hadith They've said this
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:29
			and some scholars of hadith have said no
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			because the hadith specifically says the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:35
			alayhi wa sallam Specifically mentioned that to do
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37
			one day with the with the 10th So
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:39
			either 9th with 10th or 10th with 11,
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			that's why it's better just to do, you
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:48
			know those two Okay Also to fast three
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:51
			days of every month ayam-ul biyil The
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:54
			white days right or also known as the
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:57
			radiant days which days are those in the
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:01
			lunar month 13 14 15 very good mashaAllah.
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:05
			So those three days It's also some ulema
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			have said it's mustahab But it's better if
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			we call it sunnah because the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:10
			alayhi wa sallam used to do this and
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:14
			also on on a weekly basis To fast
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:15
			on Mondays and Thursdays.
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:19
			This is also sunnah The six fasts of
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			Shawwal, this is also Sunnah of the Prophet
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:22
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:24
			So what types of faster sunnah number one?
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			You have some Ashura, right?
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:28
			the fast of the day before and after
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:30
			is also Sunnah along with it and then
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:32
			you have ayam-ul biyil the white days
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:36
			and then you have Weekly Monday and Thursday
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:38
			and then the six days of Shawwal.
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			So basically you have four sunnah fasts and
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:45
			then voluntary fast is Nafl fast any other
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:48
			time any other time a person fast this
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:52
			is Nafl then you have Makruh tahreemi or
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:54
			you can even say haram, right?
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:57
			Does anyone know when it's haram to fast?
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:01
			The day of Eid so both Eid Eid
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:03
			-ul-fitr and also Eid-ul-adha and
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:03
			also what else?
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			Yeah, so Eid-ul-adha and then the
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:11
			three days after this is known as ayam
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:15
			-ul-tashreeq Okay, so five days in the
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:18
			whole year, it's haram to fast so Eid
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:20
			-ul-adha Eid-ul-fitr and the three
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:21
			days after Eid-ul-fitr which is known
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:23
			as ayam-ul-tashreeq, right?
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:25
			Ayam-ul-tashreeq you can also identify it
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			by when we say the takbeer-ul-tashreeq,
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:29
			you know after salah we say the takbeer
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			-ul-tashreeq Okay, and then you have makruh
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35
			tanzeeh, you have kind of a lower level
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:37
			of makruh Which is for example to fast
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:43
			on any any day that Others other people
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			fast Like for example in the time of
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:48
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam there was
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:51
			Zoroastrians, Zoroastrians They were basically fire worshippers.
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:53
			So they used to fast on certain days.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:56
			They had a day called Nayruz This was
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:58
			a special day for them and they used
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			to fast on that day So to fast
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			exactly on the same day as them this
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			also becomes makruh because this is doing tashabbuh
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:08
			This is emulating One thing that we see
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:12
			very sure to do is to establish Islamic
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:15
			identity and It's worth giving a few minutes
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			to understand this because this is a very
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			important and sensitive topic Especially for us, you
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			know living in the West living, you know
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:26
			in America This is a multicultural country.
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			We live with all sorts of people right,
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:32
			you know, just Last semester this semester before
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:34
			that I was looking at some of the
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:35
			courses at Columbia And I was wondering which
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			one to take so there's one about languages
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			in New York City Guess how many languages
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			are listed in New York City?
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			more than 70 languages What the course description
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:49
			had is more than 80 actually Languages just
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:49
			in New York City.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52
			Think about this just in New York City,
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:53
			right?
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			This is I think for me at least
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:56
			I'm not from New York.
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:58
			So for me, this is amazing Like this
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:01
			is something astonishing that you have more than
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			80 languages just in New York City subhanAllah
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			So What I was mentioning is to establish
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:08
			identity.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			It's okay to be friendly with others There's
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:11
			nothing wrong with that.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:12
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was a
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:14
			very neighborly person as a matter of fact
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:17
			You know when he came to Medina, he
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:19
			is basically the first person that established peace
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:22
			amongst everybody in Medina There's something called the
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:26
			Misaqul Medina it's known as the Constitution of
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			Medina and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:31
			basically made an agreement a deal with the
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			Jewish tribes there and the Christians there and
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:36
			the Muslims that were living there that they
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			will not, you know Fight amongst each other
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:39
			they will live peacefully and so on and
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:40
			so forth.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:42
			They are a treaty So the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:44
			alayhi wa sallam was very respectful to his
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:49
			neighbors and to his fellow, you know people
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:51
			So this is also our duty.
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:52
			This is something that we have to do,
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:55
			but it's important to establish our identity and
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			This is also what the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			wa sallam did that when it came to
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:04
			the fast of the day of Asura because
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:07
			the Jewish people fasted the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:09
			wa sallam said That we are he says
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:13
			we are actually more rightful more deserving to
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			follow Musa alayhi salam than them Right, and
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			therefore he said so fast one day before
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:20
			and one day or one day after Similarly,
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:23
			for example in Sunan Abu Dawood, there's a
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:24
			hadith where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27
			He says that if you wear the imamah,
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:30
			the turban Then wear it with a hat
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32
			under because the mushrikun, the polytheists, they wear
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:36
			it without a hat Right without a topi.
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			So many many examples you will see that
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam actually showed
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:45
			us that this is Islamic identity and Also
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			in one of his long khutbahs about you
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:49
			know after the month of Ramadan and the
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			day of Eid and you will see also
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			in the day for those of you who
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			Understand Arabic if you don't understand Arabic, I
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:58
			encourage you learn Arabic inshallah, even at a
		
00:17:58 --> 00:17:58
			older age.
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:01
			This is possible So on the day of
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:03
			Eid, you'll see that the khatib will recite
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			one hadith and in that hadith the Prophet
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam He said لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:10
			عِيدٍ وَهَٰذَا عِيدُنَا You might actually you might
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:11
			have heard it so many times that you
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:14
			might even have memorized this part لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:17
			عِيدٍ وَهَٰذَا عِيدُنَا The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			sallam says every nation every people they have
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:22
			days of Festivities they have days days where
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:25
			they rejoice themselves and he says well how
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			that you do now, this is our Eid
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:28
			This is when we enjoy ourselves Right.
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:30
			So again, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:32
			is demarcating that these are our days of
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:36
			enjoying These are our days of festival and
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:37
			you know, there are other days for other
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			people to have festivals, right?
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			Why am I mentioning all of this?
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:44
			Because this is why the fuqaha the jurists
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46
			they wrote that it's makruh to fast When
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:49
			you know people of other religion if you
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			are singling out that day to to fast
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:53
			Then it becomes makruh to to fast that
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:54
			does that make sense?
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:59
			Okay Like this also to to fast there's
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:02
			a fast that's known as some of the
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			her basically to fast all the time Every
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:05
			single day.
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:08
			This is also makruh Why because in one
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:09
			hadith the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam There
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			were three people that came to the house
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:13
			of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam You
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:15
			guys do have a class of you know,
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			they are the Salihin so this hadith actually
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:19
			comes in a real Salihin so three people
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:21
			came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:23
			and They asked the family of the Prophet
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:24
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:26
			What is his worship like and So, you
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:28
			know the one of the wives of the
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:29
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:31
			He describes basically Well, this is this is
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:32
			how his prayers.
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:34
			This is how his fasting is and she
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			described she said oh the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:37
			wa sallam You know, this is what he
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:41
			does and the the Sahaba that came there
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			They were like, oh, you know, actually I
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:43
			will do this.
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			One person said every single night I will
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:48
			stay up and pray tahajjud another person said
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:50
			I will fast every single day and the
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:51
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam When he heard
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:51
			this he got upset.
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54
			He said do you think are you trying
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			to compete with me in taqwa?
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:59
			Obviously no human being can ever surpass the
		
00:19:59 --> 00:19:59
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:01
			Can they is it possible?
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:03
			Let's say a person was the most pious
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:03
			person.
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			Nobody can surpass the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:07
			sallam Right as a matter of fact the
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			closest relationship that Allah has with any human
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:13
			being forget any human being any creature is
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:15
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:17
			We know that during the Iraq Jibreel alaihissalaam
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:20
			went, you know He went to all the
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:22
			all the skies and then said that one
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:24
			time and then after that there was a
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:26
			point He said there are veils between me
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:28
			and Allah and if I cross even one
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:29
			of those veils, then I will be completely
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:32
			Destroyed but the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			crossed those veils This is in Sahih Muslim
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:38
			the hadith is there so the closest creature
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:40
			to Allah subhanaw Taala is the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:40
			alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:41
			So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam got
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:43
			upset He said are you trying to compete
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:44
			with me in taqwa?
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:47
			He said, you know some days I fast
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:51
			and some days I don't fast Moderation Moderation
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:52
			is important and this is why the fuqaha
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:55
			they write that to fast every single day
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			continuously There's something that is makruh also to
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:03
			fast Two days consecutively without any iftar or
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:06
			suhoor Consecutively means like you don't eat even
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:08
			at night two days consecutively.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:11
			This is also makruh well, it's gonna be
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:14
			more like 36, but Yeah, basically, that's the
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:17
			idea because you're starting in the morning doing
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			one whole day and then so it's roughly
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			36, right?
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:24
			so This is also something that is Considered
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:25
			makruh.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:27
			So we went over the seven types of
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29
			fast right starting with falut then we went
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:32
			to wajib then we went to sunnah And
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:35
			then must have basically and then we went
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			through, you know, makruh tahreem or haram and
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:43
			makruh tanzeeh Okay, we talked about how does
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:47
			basically the The month of Ramadan get determined,
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:48
			right?
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:50
			The brother was asking basically should you rely
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			on science?
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:56
			So a few things number one I'll mention
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:58
			what we have in the the books of
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:01
			fiqh and then I'll get into the question
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:04
			of just Islam's relationship with science.
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:06
			Like what is the relationship between Islam and
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:06
			science?
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:07
			Do we deny science too?
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:13
			Sorry Sure, we'll cover that as well inshallah.
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:19
			So As we know the month of The
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:22
			Islamic calendar the lunar calendar they get established
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:25
			by The lunar cycle not the solar cycle,
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:25
			right?
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:27
			We know that the Gregorian calendar like for
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:30
			example, you know, January February and so on
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:30
			and so forth.
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:33
			This is established through the Sun right the
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:36
			the cycle of the Sun or the the
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:43
			Basically the Not rotation Why am I forgetting
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			the word for this?
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:46
			I want to say ellipsis, but it's not
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:49
			ellipsis either But anyway, basically the motion of
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:53
			the the the earth around the Sun Sorry
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:56
			No, it's not ellipsis that I'm looking for
		
00:22:56 --> 00:23:04
			this the orbit Yeah, right anyway, so The
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:08
			the the Islamic months are through the lunar
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:11
			cycle so the way we know that the
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:14
			next month the new month has started is
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:17
			basically by The sighting of the crescent moon,
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:20
			but then sighting of the new moon and
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:25
			The requirement that is there If for the
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:27
			beginning of the month of Ramadan if there
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			is clouds Like let's say there's obstruction not
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:33
			only clouds But any kind of atmospheric conditions
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35
			that you know fog or something like that
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:38
			Then the sighting of one upright trustworthy person.
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:40
			This is sufficient, right?
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:43
			For the completion of the month of Ramadan
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:45
			basically for Eid then there must be at
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:49
			least two free male witnesses And if not
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:52
			two male witnesses then one male and two
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:56
			females that's basically for the end of Ramadan
		
00:23:56 --> 00:24:00
			for Aids basically if there are no obstruction
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:01
			in the sky if there there is no
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:05
			atmospheric condition no cloud No, you know fog
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:08
			or anything like that Then there must be
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			a large body what we know in fiqh
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:12
			as al jammul ghafeer Large body of people
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:14
			because there is no obstruction.
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:16
			It should be clear Right to to cite
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:18
			the new crescent and then for Eid al
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:21
			-adha the same ruling is applied now when
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:25
			it comes to Global versus local versus, you
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:28
			know astronomical calculations, so I'm going to explain
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:34
			this in a very short summary Because this
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:36
			is not necessarily the the topic of our
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:40
			discussion so If you buy if you go
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:41
			back to the time of the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			alayhi wasallam, right?
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:46
			Everyone was very localized in the sense that
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:48
			the people of Medina were aware of the
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:50
			things in Medina Like I said, you know
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:53
			that we act on impulses today So if
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:55
			you want to say something negative to somebody
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:57
			all you have to take is all you
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:58
			have to do is take out Your phone
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			and write a couple of words and it's
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:01
			gone right back in the days If you
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:03
			were angry at somebody, what did you have
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:05
			to do if you wanted to say something
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:05
			to them?
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:06
			And they live in a different city.
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:08
			What do you have to do?
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:12
			Yeah, not only that you write a letter
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:13
			give it to the pigeon the pigeon finds
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:15
			the person right by the time you finish
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:17
			writing The letter you're like, okay.
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:18
			I don't want to write this one.
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:20
			I'm not even upset at the I'm not
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:22
			even it's not even that bad, right so
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:25
			My point of mentioning this is that things
		
00:25:25 --> 00:25:27
			were a lot more localized today.
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:28
			Things are very globalized.
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:32
			We have social media Right anything that happens,
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			you know hours of flight away we can
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:38
			find out about it You know seconds or
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:41
			even maybe instantaneously as it happens, right?
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:45
			there is Benefits to this and there are
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:47
			confusions that are also called caused by this
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:49
			the benefits of it are actually very great
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:52
			for example Right now the situation in Gaza
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:55
			the reason why we are so aware of
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:56
			it And as a matter of fact more
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:59
			than ever more than ever in history Even
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:03
			non-muslims Non-palestinian they're also more aware
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:03
			of it.
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:05
			Why because it's not just coming from CNN
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			and Fox News, right?
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:11
			It's coming from independent sources decentralized media basically
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13
			people on reddit people on you know, Twitter
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:16
			people on Well, it's called X now, I
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:19
			guess but on discord right people are just
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:22
			sharing basically media so there are benefits of
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:26
			that there there's also Disadvantages that we're too
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			aware of things that happen elsewhere, you know,
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:30
			for example, you'll find a person that will
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:32
			say Oh the day of Arafa is happening
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			in Mecca on this day.
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:35
			Then why are we doing it differently here?
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:36
			Right.
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:38
			This is a common question that a lot
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:40
			of people have at the same time Can
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:43
			somebody ask this question if they're praying author
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:44
			over there at this time?
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:45
			Then why don't we pray author over here?
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:47
			The umma should be united, right?
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			The umma should be united let's pray at
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:50
			the same time as a matter of fact
		
00:26:50 --> 00:26:51
			We can even follow the amount of the
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:52
			harm.
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:54
			Can there be a better Jama'a than
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:54
			the Jama'a in Mecca?
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:56
			No, right.
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:59
			So obviously these are confusions.
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:01
			These are not bad questions.
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:02
			I'm not gonna say they're bad questions There's
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:05
			just confusions because of like we have too
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:06
			much information right?
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:07
			Well now what do we do with that
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:08
			information?
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:10
			So In the time of the Prophet.
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:12
			There are some things were very localized.
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:15
			There's one Asar in the time of Omar
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:18
			radiyallahu anhu, one person was visiting from outside
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:20
			of Medina, right and he came to Medina
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:23
			and He was about to go back and
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:24
			he asked Omar radiyallahu anhu.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:30
			He said Ya Amirul Momineen, should I Follow
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:32
			the sighting that was done in Medina tul
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34
			Munawwara or should I go back to my
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			people and see what they've done and follow
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:37
			That and he said look if you reach
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:40
			there before then follow what they say don't
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			follow what what is happening here again Things
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:45
			were very very decentralized things were very localized
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:49
			So the the local position this is where
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:51
			it comes from That the Asal from the
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:53
			time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi was to
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:56
			keep things basically localized, right?
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:58
			Now there's a whole question like how far
		
00:27:58 --> 00:27:58
			is local?
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:00
			Is it your city?
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:02
			Is it the country these country borders?
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:04
			It's not something that Sharia has defined its
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:05
			nation-state.
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:08
			They came together someday There's a there's a
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:09
			lot to be said about the idea of
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:12
			borders There are many authors that have written
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:15
			papers on this right the idea of this
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:18
			kind of like Social construct this invented idea
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:20
			of a nation a nation is not something
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			real like somebody else.
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			You know, I'm Pakistani I'm Bengali.
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:25
			This is not even something real.
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:27
			Why is this not something real who made
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:28
			these borders Allah made these borders?
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:31
			Did he know at the end of the
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:32
			day?
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:36
			We're one united Umma Our brotherhood our fraternities
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:40
			through Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam It doesn't
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:42
			matter where the border ends tomorrow.
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			There might be a new border, right?
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:48
			So So what is local what is global
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:52
			that's another question Generally the Fuqaha the Muftis
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:53
			of the last century.
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:59
			They have agreed that Roughly Where an entire?
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:02
			Like for example, if you were to receive
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:06
			sighting from one place To apply it to
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:08
			another place would be a completely different day
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:12
			The the sighting can can apply that's still
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:15
			considered local In my opinion, this is a
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			very wide definition of local because that's like
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:19
			maybe one quarter of the globe, right?
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:21
			That doesn't sound very local to me But
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:24
			this is what the Muftis the majority of
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:27
			Muftis basically they have agreed upon Then you
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:30
			have the global position the global position the
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:32
			global position means that anywhere in the world
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:35
			where the moon is sighted This is sufficient
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:38
			for people to follow This is something that
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:43
			some ulama have opted for In this camp.
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:45
			You also have two groups one that follows
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:51
			The the kingdom of Saudi Arabia and One
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:53
			that says Saudi Arabia is not reliable will
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:56
			follow any other sighting except Saudi Arabia You
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:58
			also have this this position and the reason
		
00:29:58 --> 00:30:00
			for this is because there are many times
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			where when Saudi Arabia Announced that they said
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:06
			Oh somebody sighted the moon, but astronomically It's
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:08
			impossible that anybody could have sighted the moon
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:09
			at that time over there again Like I
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:12
			said now we have enough technology that we
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:13
			can tell when visible.
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:16
			These are called actually visibility maps Right, you
		
00:30:16 --> 00:30:18
			can see you can see maps if you
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:20
			guys want I can even share examples of
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:22
			it with you Basically, you can see where
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:24
			the moon will be visible and roughly around
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:27
			what time right astronomically we can know what's
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			gonna be visible What's not going to be
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:29
			visible?
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:31
			So how somebody sighted the moon at that
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:33
			time in Saudi Arabia even with the telescope
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:35
			would basically have been impossible, right?
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:38
			So this is why some some global councils
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:43
			they discredit Saudi Arabia, so within the global
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:46
			camp you have like two two opinions The
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:48
			third camp which is a much more recent
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:52
			and new new Opinion is to follow astronomical
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:56
			calculations Astronomical calculations will say we will say
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:59
			we will calculate from years like the next
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:02
			let's say 15 years We will calculate will
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:04
			it be possible for people to cite the
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:04
			moon or no?
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			Right, if it is possible for them to
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10
			cite that means that the month of Ramadan
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:13
			will start and if it's not possible Astronomically
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:15
			than the month of Ramadan basically through calculation
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:17
			what humans were usually would have done to
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:20
			look at this thing Look the Prophet said
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:22
			that we were we are nations We are
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:25
			a nation of people that are not very
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:26
			literate But today we have enough science and
		
00:31:26 --> 00:31:29
			enough technology so we can know for the
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:32
			next 15 20 25 50 years When the
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:34
			moon can be cited and when it cannot
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:34
			be cited.
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:36
			Let's follow the calculations.
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:40
			However This is actually a very fringe and
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:42
			minority opinion, right?
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:46
			if you look in the like Twelve thirteen
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48
			hundred years of Islamic scholarship.
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:51
			You will only find like five people that
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:53
			have held this opinion one of them was
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:56
			a very famous Shafi scholar a sub key
		
00:31:56 --> 00:32:00
			Rahim Allah and Majority of the Shafi is
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:02
			disagreed with him on this, right?
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:05
			So you will not find too many opinions.
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:09
			They were literally amongst thousands of scholars Within
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:13
			the history of thousands of jurists Fuqaha within
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:14
			the history of Islam you will find literally
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:18
			five people Roughly five people who have held
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:19
			this opinion so it's a very minority opinion
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:22
			and it's something that has been adopted much
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:25
			more recently and the reason for adopting it
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:28
			is mostly so that people can tell their
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:30
			work or Their school that you know, this
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32
			is what they Idol me and I need
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:35
			some time off So these are the different
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:40
			opinions My recommendation to you is whichever Masjid
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:43
			is your local masjid and your local community.
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:45
			I won't say the local Muslim in New
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:47
			York is There's too many masajid.
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:48
			You can go to any masjid if you
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:48
			want, right?
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:50
			So I'll say your local community the one
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:52
			that you know You're comfortable with you like
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:54
			the imam there you ask all your questions
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:56
			you attend all the programs there.
		
00:32:56 --> 00:32:59
			I will say whatever they're doing just follow
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:00
			that there is no need to you know,
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:03
			create fitna and And such if the other
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:05
			thing is I will say if there is
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:08
			one scholar One mufti one shaykh whoever that
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:09
			you have a good connection with right and
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:11
			you always ask him your fifth question You
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:13
			can ask him and whatever he tells you
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:15
			just follow that, right?
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:17
			But I have laid out the three or
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:18
			four different positions, right?
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:19
			One was local moon sighting.
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:22
			This is the safest local moon sighting is
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:24
			the safest because that's what was done since
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:25
			the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:27
			sallam and the Hadith in you know Bukhari
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:30
			and Muslim is clear When you see the
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:32
			Hilal, so the purpose is not whether the
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:34
			moon is there or not the purpose is
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:36
			Did you actually see it or not?
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:37
			Right?
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:38
			So the Hadith is very clear.
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:40
			There are multiple ahadith There's over 30 ahadith
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:41
			for this, right?
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:44
			so that's you can say the safest position
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:47
			global is also an accepted position and Calculations
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			is a very recent and new position that
		
00:33:49 --> 00:33:52
			many masajid and imams have decided to adopt
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:56
			But from a fiqh just evidence based Perspective
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:58
			it's not a very strong one.
		
00:33:58 --> 00:34:00
			But again some imams follow it I wouldn't
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:01
			say that this is something that you should
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:04
			start disrespecting people over or start arguing or
		
00:34:04 --> 00:34:06
			you know Starting causing any kind of fitna
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:08
			like I said that if you rely on
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			one scholar you like one scholar Then just
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:13
			follow them and inshallah abide by that.
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:18
			May Allah create barakah in our decisions If
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:20
			there are any questions inshallah and we can
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:32
			take the questions Yeah,
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:33
			so I'll just repeat the question from the
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:36
			brother He said that we mentioned a few
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:39
			categories for fasting and within there We had
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:42
			you know makruh and halaam types of fast
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:45
			We noticed that some people during the hajj
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:48
			season they fast So during the hajj season,
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:50
			there's nothing wrong to fast as long as
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:53
			it's not on the day of Eid which
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:55
			day of Dhul Hijjah is that?
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:59
			Day of Eid Right and then 10th 11th
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:02
			12th, right these four days if they're fasting
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:04
			in these four days Then this that's not
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:07
			permissible other than that anytime before that anytime
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:09
			after that is fine Some people go early
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:10
			for hajj some people stay later.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:12
			So if they fast those days, it's fine.
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:28
			There's nothing wrong Yes Yeah, so
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:31
			I'm not aware of the exact details of
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:33
			the sickness so I can't give you like
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:35
			a exact opinion But I'll give you the
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:39
			general guidelines Generally for any medical condition what
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:42
			I would recommend the proper way to do
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:46
			it is you find either a Muslim knowledgeable
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:49
			doctor if you cannot find so for example
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:52
			There there are scholars who are also medical
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:53
			doctors like dr.
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:54
			Mateen Khan in New Jersey.
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:57
			Dr. Hussain Abdus-Sattar There are multiple doctors
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			that are also scholars like their ulama.
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:01
			They've studied seven eight years and you know,
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:03
			they're Proficient you can ask them.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:06
			That's one option Second option is that you
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			You take what the doctor has said and
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:11
			you take it to a mufti you explain
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12
			the exact condition This is what it's called.
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:15
			Let the mufti do do research For example
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:17
			when I was a student in the Darul
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:19
			Ifta when I was studying to become a
		
00:36:19 --> 00:36:22
			mufti We received questions like that like of
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:24
			a medical nature, you know, can a person
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:26
			perform abortion and XYZ scenario?
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:27
			Can they do this?
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:28
			Can they do that?
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:29
			Is it okay for them to take like
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:33
			cannabis, you know Basically marijuana for medical purposes.
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:34
			So we have to give fatwa on these
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:37
			what we did is we always collaborated with
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:42
			doctors with experts medical experts So you can
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:43
			combine that basically you go to a mufti
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:46
			explain the actual condition and he'll see the
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:48
			condition and let you know if this is
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:52
			valid a lot of times a non-muslim
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			doctor will not really understand the significance of
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:57
			fasting and Like exactly how how bad is
		
00:36:57 --> 00:37:00
			it if she fasts they're not clearly explaining
		
00:37:00 --> 00:37:01
			that So to go up to an actual
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:04
			medical expert and then to take the opinion
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:06
			of a mufti that that's better But if
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:09
			it's basically something that we we conclude that
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:11
			she cannot be fasting then she should just
		
00:37:11 --> 00:37:13
			do kaffarah The other option again, like I
		
00:37:13 --> 00:37:15
			said during winter if it's better if it's
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:17
			easier for her to fast at that time
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:18
			Because the day is shorter.
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:19
			That's what that's the first priority.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:21
			She should do qada in those days She
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:24
			should remake the fast days during that time
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:26
			because it's shorter days If even that she
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:29
			cannot do then kaffarah like kaffarah, not kaffarah,
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:41
			sorry, fidya Yeah That's
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:43
			a very good question Actually, a lot of
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:45
			people have this question if you already have
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:47
			some qada and kaffarah from the previous Ramadan
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			Then is that a problem for the next
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:50
			Ramadan?
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:53
			It's not a problem You can fast for
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:54
			this Ramadan finish it and then do the
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:57
			qada for last year or the past five
		
00:37:57 --> 00:38:00
			years or the last 15 Years, whatever you
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:00
			can do them anytime.
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:03
			Obviously don't delay it When you delay them
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:04
			it never happens.
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:06
			So try to do it as fast as
		
00:38:06 --> 00:38:08
			you can but it's not an impediment It
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:19
			doesn't become an obstacle for this Ramadan No,
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:22
			no, you cannot combine the two intentions in
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:23
			one fard.
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:26
			So any fard whether it's falat or whether
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:28
			it's fasting like for example, I cannot fast
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:32
			today and make intention that I'm fasting for
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:34
			Ramadan and also for the 13, 14, 15
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:37
			You cannot actually mix any intention with the
		
00:38:37 --> 00:38:37
			fard.
		
00:38:37 --> 00:38:40
			Same thing with asr salat Or like fajr
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:42
			salat that I'm praying two rakat fard But
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:45
			also I'm praying two rakat salat shukr or
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:46
			like salat tawbah or something like that You
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:52
			can't combine other intentions with fard Any other
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:52
			questions?
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:16
			Okay, so very good question.
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:20
			If you haven't missed any other fard prayer
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:22
			in your life Now this is very rare
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:23
			for most people.
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:24
			This is very rare even for my case,
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:25
			for example, right?
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:26
			This is not my case.
		
00:39:26 --> 00:39:29
			So if a person has never missed any
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:32
			salats in their in their Life when they
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:35
			missed their first few salats, they are known
		
00:39:35 --> 00:39:37
			as sahib ut-tarteeb Basically what they're supposed
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:39
			to do is they're supposed to pray those
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:42
			salats in sequence Like if they miss fajr,
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:45
			then dhuhr, then asr, then before they can
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:47
			they can pray maghrib They have to finish
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:49
			those prayers and then they can pray maghrib,
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:50
			right?
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:53
			This is taken from hadith However, majority of
		
00:39:53 --> 00:39:56
			people they missed more than five salats, right?
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:57
			If a person has missed more than five
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:59
			salats in their life, then anytime you can
		
00:39:59 --> 00:40:03
			do qada so If you're asking can I
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:04
			just do nafl instead?
		
00:40:04 --> 00:40:05
			No, you have to do qada.
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:09
			So For example, you missed dhuhr, then my
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:11
			recommendation would be that, you know tomorrow after
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:13
			salat ul-dhuhr, pray another four rakat, make
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:17
			intention of Doing qada for that one And
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:19
			so on and so forth, but you have
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:22
			to make intention that this is the qada
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:23
			for the dhuhr I missed on that day
		
00:40:28 --> 00:40:30
			Okay, inshallah, if there are no other questions,
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:32
			then inshallah, we will leave it at that
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:35
			Jazakum Allahu khair for attending.
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:37
			I am hoping that most of you has
		
00:40:37 --> 00:40:40
			attended all four sessions I'm sure we've learned
		
00:40:40 --> 00:40:41
			so much me and you both.
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:43
			So may Allah bless your time.
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:45
			May Allah reward you I'll just leave you
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:47
			with one small thing, you know, this might
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:49
			feel like a small act for us, right?
		
00:40:49 --> 00:40:50
			Now we came to the masjid, chaloo, you
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:52
			know, this program was going to happen So
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:54
			we'll sit, there's nothing small In the eyes
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:56
			of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, this is
		
00:40:56 --> 00:40:57
			one of the best things that anyone can
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:00
			be doing In one sahih hadith, the Prophet
		
00:41:00 --> 00:41:03
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he says وَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ
		
00:41:03 --> 00:41:06
			لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ That the person
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:09
			who comes to seek knowledge Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:41:09 --> 00:41:12
			ta'ala He says, the Prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:41:12 --> 00:41:14
			wa sallam says that the angels, they lay
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:17
			down their wings Out of respect for these
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:18
			people, right?
		
00:41:18 --> 00:41:20
			And in the same hadith, the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:22
			alaihi wa sallam says that the entire creation,
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:24
			the makhluk of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:41:24 --> 00:41:25
			As long as these people are seeking knowledge
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:28
			They're making dua for their forgiveness And the
		
00:41:28 --> 00:41:29
			Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says even in
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:31
			the fish in the sea They're also making
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:33
			dua for their forgiveness In a different hadith,
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:35
			in Sunan Abi Dawood, the Prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:41:35 --> 00:41:37
			wa sallam says مَنْ أَتَى مَسْجِدِ هَذَا The
		
00:41:37 --> 00:41:39
			person who comes to my masjid لم يأتِهِ
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:43
			He didn't come except لِخَيْرٍ يَتَعَلَّمْهُ أَوْ يُعَلِّمُهُ
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:45
			Except for some good things that he came
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:47
			to learn or teach And then he says
		
00:41:47 --> 00:41:50
			فَهُوَ بِمَنزِلَةِ الْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ Right?
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58
			So it's nothing small We might feel like
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:00
			this is something small Yeah, I had some
		
00:42:00 --> 00:42:02
			time so I said no This is something
		
00:42:02 --> 00:42:03
			that Allah is very happy with So may
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:05
			Allah reward all of you And all of
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:08
			me as well And accept it from us
