la mano him Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Ashraf Colombia I will say that Mussolini Vienna Muhammad while early he was of age mind Welcome back brother and sisters to Islam Mecca where inshallah to Allah we will continue to take your questions but if any later Allah don't forget you can call us directly here in the studio with the numbers appearing at the bottom of the screen you can also put your questions to us via the WhatsApp number as well as Charlottetown it's also appearing at the bottom of your screen hamdulillah the lines work quite busy before the break where we took three or four calls Masha Allah, so please feel free to give us a call inshallah to
Allah as well as send us your questions via WhatsApp. We'll try our best to answer them but in your later on.
We have some questions via the WhatsApp inshallah Tada what is the prayer over tahajjud? And how and when to perform it also, what are the benefits of this prayer?
So this question mashallah really requires
a lecture really to give you a full, the full extent of the benefits of a tahajjud and when we say tahajjud, we're talking about the prayer that is offered in the nighttime, the Muslim prays the five obligatory prayers, and then there is also a big emphasis and encouragement to offer voluntary prayers in the nighttime.
And there are various verses in the Quran referring to the offering of the night prayer.
What I would say is that when it is performed,
so technically speaking, the night in Islam starts from after salatu Al Maghrib.
So when the sun sets, this is the nighttime and this extends all the way until Salat al Fajr.
And the night prayer technically can be offered any time between those two prayers between McRib and Salat al Fajr Okay, technically speaking. So, this is the first point The second point is that how it is prayed how it is prayed, which is the question here so the Prophet alayhi salatu salam said Salah to Layli Messina, Messina, that the night prayer is to be offered in two units of prayer at each time. Okay, so you pray to rocker two units of prayer, then you finish your Victor Salim and then you offer another two. Now this hadith is a very important Hadith for us is that it does not specify how much or how little or how much you can pray. So therefore it is up to you really, how
much you want to pray in the nighttime if you just want to simply offer to Raka and then you pray your Witter after. I know, question wasn't asking about Witter, but it's important to mention, because the same Hadith in which I just mentioned that the night prayer is prayed in two units at a time it is completed by best practice with you praying with it, even if it is one that occur.
So you can do this at any time of the night in Sharla. Taylor.
There are of course the various other ahaadeeth which can stipulate the best times for you to offer the night prayer,
some of the view that it is the last third of the night. How do you work out the last third of the night, while you work out how many hours between Maghrib and Fudger. And however many hours that is you divide that by three, and then you find out the last third of the night. There are other approaches and understandings as to what is the optimum and best time.
There are other views like for example, that the Prophet alayhi salatu salam explained to us the bad or how the old alayhis salam how he used to worship Allah subhanaw taala and we know that the psalm or the fasting of the old Ali salaam was the first one day and to break the force the next day. So he would one day fast and then one day not fast and just have this routine. So this is according to many of the relevant based upon this the optimum the best way that you could fast and fasting one day and then breaking the faster the next day and then fasting one day on on off like this.
There's also mentioned that the old Elisa Lam would
get up for salatu Leyland pray after 116 of the night in pm and when that would occur, and then after offering that particular one six of pm that he would sleep after that. So there are different discussions
concerning that, but there was a great benefit in you offering this voluntary prayer in a time where everybody sleeps and takes their wrist but you make that sacrifice and you stand up in prayer. May Allah subhana allow us to establish that I mean we have a call
On the line of Santa Monica.
Well, it was a delay but
your sister and I have three questions. My first one is during ombre do I have to have socks on?
And my second one is a
sense of saying that you cannot wipe your feet if you're performing when you do if you're wearing nylon socks, you know the sort of
stalking type of Foxbox okay. And my third question is, what is the difference between Alhamdulillah and while hamdulillah okay
okay, so three questions Hey, Mashallah.
So the first question is concerning wearing socks. Now obviously,
on the outset, men are not permitted to wear socks at all in the State of Iran while performing Hajj or Omar as for women, now the discussion goes back to really whether the foot is part of the hour whether it needs to be covered or not. Okay.
There are legitimate differences of opinion on this particular issue.
I'm of the view that you women should cover their feet while at any time whether there any harm or not, it makes no difference. So you should wear your socks or wear some socks that are covered your feet when you're in Haram or whether you're out of the Haram makes no difference in sha Allah Allah okay
since you've asked me the question I'll give you the answer you may go to somebody else they may give you a different answer which is based upon evidence and the interpretation of the evidence isn't as legitimate of you but since you've asked me I'm saying the Charlotte area you'll cover your feet at all times if you leave the house okay you may others may see your feet you should cover your feet and Allah subhanaw taala in his best
the second question is about wiping over the sock. Now.
Again, there are different views what type of sock you are allowed to wipe over is it only the leather sock that you are permitted to wipe over when making model that is that you made a threshold or washing your feet and then you put a sock on there or some of the view that has to be another sock that you wipe over
or it could be even a mix between like cotton or wool and leather nonetheless I would say that on this issue, if the sock is leather or if it is wool or it is nylon or it is another material, it covers the entire area of the foot
and it is not see through so to see through tights you cannot wait over they have to be a sock which number one covers the whole foot and secondly it is not see through okay it's not see through as long as these two conditions and Charlotte Allah
they are fulfilled then it would be permitted for you again you asking me give you my view, it is permitted for you to wipe over the top of the sock. Okay, so it's not a see through sock.
So if you cannot see the skin underneath, you can wipe over the top in Charlottetown regardless of the material, nylon who's best. The third question is the difference between Al Hamdulillah and well Hamdulillah. Well, quite simply the word means and so instead of saying all praises due to Allah you're saying and all praises due to Allah okay. So, this is really all you are adding to that statement of Alhamdulillah is the word well hamdulillah is that and you are saying and And Alhamdulillah okay. So essentially it is no real difference in the meaning and Allah azza wa jal knows best. This brings us to the end of this particular show brothers and sisters, please
