1 00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:03,540 In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. 2 00:00:03,540 --> 00:00:06,540 The Ifadah Center 3 00:00:06,540 --> 00:00:09,740 for Human Studies and Research 4 00:00:09,740 --> 00:00:12,060 presents 5 00:00:12,060 --> 00:00:16,300 An Abridgment of Sahih al-Bukhari. 6 00:00:16,300 --> 00:00:21,730 Chapter: Performing ablution by washing each limb once. 7 00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:24,289 On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, who said: 8 00:00:24,289 --> 00:00:30,219 "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) performed ablution, washing each limb once." 9 00:00:30,219 --> 00:00:33,810 Commentary on the hadith: 10 00:00:34,049 --> 00:00:38,929 "The Prophet (peace be upon him) performed ablution, washing each limb once," 11 00:00:38,929 --> 00:00:42,450 meaning that he washed each limb a single time, 12 00:00:42,450 --> 00:00:45,020 and likewise wiped the head once. 13 00:00:45,020 --> 00:00:49,070 Key takeaways from the hadith: 14 00:00:49,070 --> 00:00:51,469 Among the lessons derived from the hadith are: 15 00:00:51,469 --> 00:00:54,750 It is obligatory in ablution to wash each limb once, 16 00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:57,090 while whatever exceeds that is Sunnah. 17 00:00:57,090 --> 00:01:01,729 The hadith also contains evidence that running the fingers through the beard is not obligatory; 18 00:01:01,729 --> 00:01:04,689 for if one washes his face only once, 19 00:01:04,769 --> 00:01:08,290 there remains no excess water in his hand with which to comb through it. 20 00:01:10,769 --> 00:01:14,909 Chapter: Performing ablution by washing each limb twice. 21 00:01:14,909 --> 00:01:17,230 On the authority of 'Abdullah ibn Zayd, 22 00:01:17,230 --> 00:01:24,269 that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) performed ablution, washing each limb twice. 23 00:01:24,269 --> 00:01:27,500 Commentary on the hadith: 24 00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:30,299 "He performed ablution, washing each limb twice," 25 00:01:30,299 --> 00:01:34,260 meaning that he washed every limb two times. 26 00:01:34,260 --> 00:01:38,159 Key takeaways from the hadith: 27 00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:40,239 Among the lessons derived from the hadith are: 28 00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:43,040 It is permissible to wash each limb twice in ablution, 29 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,959 and that it is not a condition for ablution to be performed in odd numbers— 30 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:52,269 whether once or thrice. 31 00:01:52,269 --> 00:01:56,670 Chapter: Performing ablution by washing each limb thrice. 32 00:01:56,670 --> 00:01:58,829 On the authority of Humran, who said: 33 00:01:58,829 --> 00:02:02,510 "I saw 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) perform ablution: 34 00:02:02,510 --> 00:02:05,709 he poured water over his hands three times, 35 00:02:05,709 --> 00:02:08,819 then rinsed his mouth and snuffed water into his nostrils and blew it out, 36 00:02:08,819 --> 00:02:12,060 then washed his face three times, 37 00:02:12,060 --> 00:02:16,610 then washed his right hand up to the elbow three times, 38 00:02:16,610 --> 00:02:21,250 then washed his left hand up to the elbow three times, 39 00:02:21,250 --> 00:02:23,599 then wiped his head, 40 00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:27,120 then washed his right foot three times, 41 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,000 then the left one three times. 42 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,840 He then said: 43 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,360 'I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) 44 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,639 perform ablution in a manner similar to this ablution of mine.' 45 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,419 He then said: 46 00:02:40,419 --> 00:02:43,460 'Whoever performs ablution like this ablution of mine, 47 00:02:43,460 --> 00:02:48,900 and then prays two rak'ahs without letting his mind wander in them, 48 00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:53,680 will have his past sins forgiven.'" 49 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,280 In another narration: 50 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,879 "No person performs ablution properly, 51 00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:00,800 and then observes the prayer, 52 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,560 except that his sins between that prayer and the next 53 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,860 will be forgiven, until he prays it." 54 00:03:07,939 --> 00:03:11,360 Commentary on the hadith: 55 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,719 "He poured," 56 00:03:12,719 --> 00:03:15,759 meaning he poured out water to wash with. 57 00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:17,360 "And blew it out" (istinthar): 58 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:22,669 istinthar refers to expelling water from the nose after sniffing it in. 59 00:03:22,669 --> 00:03:24,110 "The elbow" (al-mirfaq): 60 00:03:24,110 --> 00:03:27,229 it is the joint connecting the forearm to the upper arm. 61 00:03:27,229 --> 00:03:30,590 "Without letting his mind wander in them": 62 00:03:30,590 --> 00:03:31,789 what is meant 63 00:03:31,789 --> 00:03:34,509 is divesting oneself of worldly preoccupations, 64 00:03:34,509 --> 00:03:38,620 allowing the remembrance of Allah Almighty to predominate over the heart. 65 00:03:38,620 --> 00:03:42,419 "Will have his past sins forgiven": 66 00:03:42,419 --> 00:03:46,500 the promised reward is contingent upon two matters: 67 00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:47,780 the first 68 00:03:47,780 --> 00:03:50,580 is performing ablution in the aforementioned manner, 69 00:03:50,580 --> 00:03:51,780 and the second 70 00:03:51,780 --> 00:03:54,669 is praying two rak'ahs immediately thereafter. 71 00:03:54,669 --> 00:03:56,509 "Performs ablution properly": 72 00:03:56,509 --> 00:03:59,680 to complete it and perform it thoroughly. 73 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,360 Key takeaways from the hadith: 74 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,759 It is permissible to receive assistance in performing ablution, 75 00:04:05,759 --> 00:04:07,840 though this involves further scholarly detail. 76 00:04:07,919 --> 00:04:12,560 It also provides guidance regarding ordering between the recommended and obligatory acts, 77 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,089 though some scholars held that the prescribed order applies to the obligatory acts, not the recommended ones. 78 00:04:17,089 --> 00:04:19,170 Among the lessons derived from the hadith is 79 00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:22,529 that acts of worship are founded upon strict emulation, 80 00:04:22,529 --> 00:04:25,170 and teaching by practical demonstration and application 81 00:04:25,170 --> 00:04:30,620 leaves a deeper impression on the learner. 82 00:04:30,620 --> 00:04:34,449 Chapter: Snuffing water and blowing it out during ablution. 83 00:04:34,449 --> 00:04:36,050 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, 84 00:04:36,050 --> 00:04:40,589 that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 85 00:04:40,589 --> 00:04:43,149 "When one of you performs ablution, 86 00:04:43,149 --> 00:04:45,550 let him put water into his nose 87 00:04:45,550 --> 00:04:47,629 and then blow it out; 88 00:04:47,629 --> 00:04:50,579 and whoever cleans himself with stones should do so in an odd number; 89 00:04:50,579 --> 00:04:53,779 and when one of you wakes up from sleep, 90 00:04:53,779 --> 00:04:58,620 let him wash his hand before putting it into his ablution water, 91 00:04:58,620 --> 00:05:03,680 for none of you knows where his hand spent the night." 92 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,149 Commentary on the hadith: 93 00:05:07,149 --> 00:05:08,910 "And whoever cleans himself with stones" (istajmara): 94 00:05:08,990 --> 00:05:10,269 istijmar 95 00:05:10,269 --> 00:05:13,870 is wiping the area of urine and stool using jimār, 96 00:05:13,870 --> 00:05:16,610 which are small stones. 97 00:05:16,610 --> 00:05:17,970 "His ablution water" (wudu'ihi): 98 00:05:17,970 --> 00:05:21,139 meaning the water used to perform ablution. 99 00:05:21,139 --> 00:05:23,060 "Where his hand spent the night": 100 00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:28,129 whether on a clean part of his body or an impure one. 101 00:05:28,129 --> 00:05:32,050 Key takeaways from the hadith: 102 00:05:32,050 --> 00:05:34,050 Among the lessons derived from the hadith are: 103 00:05:34,050 --> 00:05:37,329 It is recommended to use an odd number of stones when cleaning oneself after relieving nature. 104 00:05:37,410 --> 00:05:41,250 When the Lawgiver states a ruling and follows it with a rationale, 105 00:05:41,250 --> 00:05:44,689 it indicates that the ruling is established because of that reason. 106 00:05:44,750 --> 00:05:50,110 It implies the dislike of dipping one's hands into an ablution vessel before washing them, 107 00:05:50,110 --> 00:05:54,459 whether waking up from nighttime sleep or daytime sleep. 108 00:05:54,459 --> 00:05:59,180 It highlights the recommendation of exercising precaution in matters of worship, 109 00:05:59,180 --> 00:06:05,579 and the recommendation of using euphemisms for matters one is customarily shy to mention explicitly. 110 00:06:07,970 --> 00:06:10,740 Chapter: Washing the heels. 111 00:06:10,740 --> 00:06:13,699 On the authority of Muhammad ibn Ziyad, who said: 112 00:06:13,699 --> 00:06:15,699 "I heard Abu Hurayrah 113 00:06:15,699 --> 00:06:20,579 —while he was passing by us as people were performing ablution from a water basin— 114 00:06:20,579 --> 00:06:21,779 say: 115 00:06:21,779 --> 00:06:23,779 'Perform your ablution thoroughly, 116 00:06:23,779 --> 00:06:28,180 for Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 117 00:06:28,180 --> 00:06:31,699 "Woe to the heels from the Fire!"'" 118 00:06:32,269

the hindmost bone that holds the back strap of the sandal. 122 00:06:45,149 --> 00:06:46,750 "From the water basin" (al-mataharah): 123 00:06:46,750 --> 00:06:49,970 meaning the vessel containing water for purification. 124 00:06:49,970 --> 00:06:51,410 "Thoroughly" (asbighu): 125 00:06:51,410 --> 00:06:52,689 isbagh 126 00:06:52,689 --> 00:06:54,930 means ensuring the water reaches all required areas 127 00:06:54,930 --> 00:06:58,100 and giving every limb its due share of washing. 128 00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:59,300 "Woe" (wayl): 129 00:06:59,300 --> 00:07:00,819 a word indicating punishment, 130 00:07:00,819 --> 00:07:06,100 uttered to anyone who falls into a ruin they fully deserve. 131 00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:10,220 Key takeaways from the hadith: 132 00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:12,220 Among the lessons derived from the hadith are: 133 00:07:12,220 --> 00:07:14,939 It is obligatory to wash both feet completely, 134 00:07:14,939 --> 00:07:17,259 and wiping over them is not sufficient. 135 00:07:17,259 --> 00:07:20,459 It contains guidance on instructing the ignorant, 136 00:07:20,459 --> 00:07:23,339 the permissibility of being stern when censuring an error, 137 00:07:23,339 --> 00:07:32,670 and the encouragement to check areas where water typically does not reach without careful inspection. 138 00:07:32,670 --> 00:07:35,470 Chapter: Washing the feet while wearing sandals, 139 00:07:35,470 --> 00:07:38,879 and that one does not merely wipe over sandals. 140 00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:41,040 On the authority of 'Ubayd ibn Jurayj, 141 00:07:41,120 -->

00:07:52,959 that I have not seen any of your companions do." 145 00:07:52,959 --> 00:07:54,079 He asked: 146 00:07:54,079 --> 00:07:56,560 "And what are they, O Ibn Jurayj?" 147 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,759 He replied: 148 00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:02,720 "I have seen that you do not touch any of the corners except the two Yamani corners; 149 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,480 I have seen you wearing tanned leather sandals; 150 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,519 I have seen you dyeing with yellow; 151 00:08:09,519 --> 00:08:12,319 and I have seen that whenever you are in Makkah, 152

mount stood upright with him." 167 00:09:06,830 --> 00:09:07,750 In another narration: 168 00:09:08,309 --> 00:09:11,470 "Whenever he placed his foot in the stirrup 169 00:09:12,009 --> 00:09:14,509

from the hadith: 201 00:10:30,259 --> 00:10:31,820 It is derived from the hadith 202 00:10:32,259 --> 00:10:36,379 that Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him and his father, adhered strictly to the Sunnah; 203 00:10:37,059 --> 00:10:38,860 that the obligation regarding the feet 204 00:10:39,019 --> 00:10:40,539 is washing, not wiping; 205 00:10:41,100 --> 00:10:43,379 and that dyeing with yellow is permissible. 206 00:10:46,350 --> 00:10:49,429 Chapter: Beginning with the Right Side in Ablution and Ritual Bathing. 207 00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:53,990 On the authority of Umm 'Atiyyah, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 208 00:10:54,779 --> 00:10:58,620 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, came in to us 209 00:10:58,620 --> 00:11:00,539 while we were washing

00:11:18,529 --> 00:11:21,370 So when we finished, we notified him, 217 00:11:22,070 --> 00:11:24,070 and he threw his waist-wrapper (haqw) to us, 218 00:11:24,549 --> 00:11:25,470 saying, 219 00:11:25,909 --> 00:11:27,789 "Wrap her inner shroud with it." 220 00:11:28,529 --> 00:11:29,289 And in it: 221 00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:31,490 "Wash her an odd number of times." 222 00:11:32,009 -->

side 226 00:11:41,980 --> 00:11:44,419 and with the parts washed in ablution." 227 00:11:45,220 --> 00:11:45,980 And in it, 228 00:11:46,340 --> 00:11:48,460 Umm 'Atiyyah said, 229 00:11:49,019 --> 00:11:51,899 "And we combed her hair into three braids." 230 00:11:52,799 --> 00:11:53,799 In another narration: 231 00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:56,679 "And we placed them behind her." 232 00:11:57,830 --> 00:12:00,110 Commentary on the hadith: 233 00:12:01,230 --> 00:12:02,070 "His daughter" 234 00:12:02,470 --> 00:12:04,789 refers to Zaynab, may Allah be pleased with her. 235 00:12:05,470 -->

it is recommended to begin with the right side when washing the deceased, 260 00:13:06,169 --> 00:13:07,809 and by extension, this applies to acts of ritual purification 261 00:13:08,049 --> 00:13:10,090 as well as all virtuous deeds; 262 00:13:10,850 --> 00:13:13,970 that it is permissible to shroud a woman in a man's garment. 263 00:13:14,649 --> 00:13:15,570 The hadith also demonstrates 264 00:13:15,850 --> 00:13:18,809 the manner of washing and shrouding a female deceased, 265 00:13:19,450 --> 00:13:22,250 that women have the greatest right to wash women, 266 00:13:22,970 --> 00:13:25,610 and the mercy of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 267 00:13:25,730 --> 00:13:27,570 and his compassion toward his daughter. 268 00:13:28,419 --> 00:13:29,820 The hadith also indicates 269 00:13:30,340 --> 00:13:32,700 that one who washes a deceased is not obligated to perform a ritual bath, 270 00:13:33,299 --> 00:13:36,659 since the Prophet, peace be upon him, did not instruct 271 00:13:36,740 --> 00:13:39,740 Umm 'Atiyyah, may Allah be pleased with her, to do so. 272 00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:44,179 On the authority of 'A'ishah, who said: 273 00:13:44,940 --> 00:13:47,620 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 274 00:13:47,620 --> 00:13:51,700 used to like starting from the right side whenever possible, in all his affairs: 275 00:13:52,340 --> 00:13:53,379 in his purification— 276 00:13:54,139 --> 00:13:55,019 in another narration: 277 00:13:55,580 --> 00:13:56,460 "and in his ablution"— 278 00:13:56,980 --> 00:13:59,379 in combing his

other textual evidence 285 00:14:13,820 --> 00:14:16,220 such as cleansing oneself after relieving nature with the left hand, and the like. 286 00:14:17,139 --> 00:14:17,820 "His purification" 287

00:14:32,620 Points of benefit from the hadith: 294 00:14:34,259 --> 00:14:35,779 It is derived from the hadith 295 00:14:36,299 --> 00:14:39,299 that starting with the right is meritorious in all matters, 296 00:14:39,779 --> 00:14:42,460 except where a text indicates otherwise; 297 00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:46,299 and that the recommendation to begin with the right is waived in cases of incapacity. 298 00:14:49,250 --> 00:14:50,889 Chapter: Seeking Water for Ablution 299 00:14:51,090 --> 00:14:52,769 When the Time for Prayer Arrives. 300 00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:57,539 On the authority of Anas ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 301 00:14:58,299 --> 00:15:01,259 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, set out 302 00:15:01,259 --> 00:15:02,779 on one of his journeys 303 00:15:03,340 --> 00:15:05,740 accompanied by a group of his Companions. 304 00:15:06,539 --> 00:15:08,340 They proceeded on their way 305 00:15:09,059 --> 00:15:10,419 until the time for prayer arrived— 306 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,039 in another narration: 307 00:15:12,519 --> 00:15:13,679 "the 'Asr prayer"— 308 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,600 but they could find no water to perform ablution. 309 00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:20,399 Then a man from among the people went 310 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,080 and brought a vessel containing a little water— 311 00:15:24,940 --> 00:15:25,779 in another narration: 312 00:15:26,340 --> 00:15:28,340 "a stone basin"— 313 00:15:29,389 --> 00:15:32,669 so the Prophet, peace be upon him, took it 314 00:15:32,669 --> 00:15:33,590 and performed ablution, 315 00:15:34,340 --> 00:15:37,539 then placed his four fingers over the vessel, 316 00:15:38,220 --> 00:15:39,259 and said, 317 00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:41,899 "Stand up and perform ablution." 318 00:15:42,899 --> 00:15:43,740 In another narration: 319 00:15:44,460 --> 00:15:47,980 "And I saw the water gushing from beneath his fingers." 320 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,320 So the people performed ablution 321 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,320 until all of them had completed their ablution as they needed, 322 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,480 and they numbered seventy or thereabouts— 323 00:15:58,590 --> 00:15:59,389 in another narration: 324 00:16:00,110 --> 00:16:01,870 "eighty and some more"— 325 00:16:02,740 --> 00:16:03,700 and in yet another narration: 326 00:16:04,340 --> 00:16:05,340 "three hundred, 327 00:16:05,860 --> 00:16:07,899 or nearly three hundred." 328 00:16:09,210 --> 00:16:11,370 Commentary on the hadith: 329 00:16:12,659 --> 00:16:13,500 "His journeys" (makhārijih) 330 00:16:13,980 --> 00:16:14,940 means: his travels. 331 00:16:15,820 --> 00:16:17,059 "He brought a vessel" (qadaḥ): 332 00:16:17,740 --> 00:16:19,299 The qadaḥ is a drinking bowl or vessel. 333 00:16:20,289 --> 00:16:21,970 "A stone basin" (mikhḍab min ḥijārah) 334 00:16:22,649 --> 00:16:26,049 means: a stone tub used for washing clothes, 335 00:16:26,649 --> 00:16:28,289 also called an ijjānah. 336 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,240 "Then he placed his four fingers over the vessel," 337 00:16:32,639 --> 00:16:33,720 and the water gushed forth. 338 00:16:34,470 --> 00:16:38,389 This miracle is even greater than water bursting forth from a rock, 339 00:16:38,909 --> 00:16:41,230 because rocks naturally yield water. 340 00:16:42,340 --> 00:16:44,700 Points of benefit from the hadith: 341 00:16:45,899 --> 00:16:47,419 It is derived from the hadith 342 00:16:47,980 --> 00:16:52,220 that seeking water for purification is not obligatory before the prayer time enters; 343 00:16:52,899 --> 00:16:55,740 that one is encouraged to keep righteous company while traveling; 344 00:16:56,460 --> 00:17:02,340 and that sharing surplus water beyond one's own purification needs is obligatory in times of necessity. 345 00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:07,940 The hadith also demonstrates a miracle of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 346 00:17:10,819 --> 00:17:14,579 Chapter: Water Used to Wash Human Hair. 347 00:17:16,140 --> 00:17:16,980 On the authority of Anas, 348 00:17:17,460 --> 00:17:22,299 that when the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, shaved his head, 349 00:17:22,980 --> 00:17:26,779 Abu Talhah was the first to take some of his hair. 350 00:17:28,329 --> 00:17:30,450 Commentary on the hadith: 351 00:17:31,769 --> 00:17:35,049 "Chapter: Water Used to Wash Human Hair": 352 00:17:35,769 --> 00:17:37,609 Human hair is ritually pure; 353 00:17:38,210 --> 00:17:40,809 therefore, the water used to wash it remains pure. 354 00:17:41,779 --> 00:17:46,180 "When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, shaved his head": 355 00:17:46,940 --> 00:17:49,460 This took place on the Day of Sacrifice in Mina, 356 00:17:50,059 --> 00:17:53,380 and the one who shaved his head was Ma'mar ibn 'Abdullah. 357 00:17:54,509 --> 00:17:56,869 Points of benefit from the hadith: 358 00:17:58,329 --> 00:17:59,809 It is derived from the hadith 359 00:18:00,490 --> 00:18:05,490 that it is permissible to keep the hair of the Prophet, peace be upon him, and seek blessings through it, 360 00:18:06,009 --> 00:18:07,049 and that it is ritually pure; 361 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:14,559 and it illustrates the eagerness of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, to preserve the Prophet's relics. 362 00:18:17,460 --> 00:18:18,019 Chapter: 363 00:18:18,539 --> 00:18:23,259 If a Dog Drinks from Anyone's Vessel, Let Him Wash It Seven Times. 364 00:18:25,220 --> 00:18:26,940 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, who said 365 00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:31,099 that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 366 00:18:31,859 --> 00:18:35,099 "If a dog drinks from anyone's vessel, 367 00:18:35,460 --> 00:18:37,299 let him wash it seven times." 368 00:18:38,619 --> 00:18:40,819 Commentary on the hadith: 369 00:18:42,029 --> 00:18:42,910 "If it drinks" (shariba) 370 00:18:43,309 --> 00:18:44,750 means: if it laps with its tongue, 371 00:18:45,069 --> 00:18:46,150 which is referred to as walagh. 372 00:18:47,059 --> 00:18:47,819 "A dog": 373 00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:52,019 There is no distinction between a dog permitted to be kept and any other, 374 00:18:52,259 --> 00:18:53,460 due to the general wording of the text. 375 00:18:54,670 --> 00:18:57,069 Points of benefit from the hadith: 376 00:18:58,460 --> 00:19:01,779 The hadith contains an allusion prohibiting the keeping of dogs, 377 00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:06,140 by emphasizing the severity of its impurity above all other impurities. 378 00:19:06,819 --> 00:19:08,940 It establishes the ritual impurity of a dog's leftover water, 379 00:19:09,579 --> 00:19:12,019 and the stipulation of seven washings: 380 00:19:12,460 --> 00:19:14,980 is it for thorough cleansing, or is it purely a devotional obligation? 381 00:19:15,339 --> 00:19:16,579 There are two scholarly views on this. 382 00:19:19,420 --> 00:19:21,700 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, 383 00:19:22,180 --> 00:19:25,819 that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 384 00:19:26,609 --> 00:19:28,450 "While a man was walking along, 385 00:19:28,809 --> 00:19:30,890 he grew intensely thirsty. 386 00:19:31,490 --> 00:19:34,049 He descended into a well and drank from it, 387 00:19:34,450 --> 00:19:35,490 then climbed out, 388 00:19:36,210 --> 00:19:38,529 only to find a dog panting heavily, 389 00:19:38,970 --> 00:19:41,170 eating moist earth out of extreme thirst. 390 00:19:41,849 --> 00:19:42,650 The man said, 391 00:19:43,329 --> 00:19:46,769 'This dog has suffered thirst just as I did.' 392 00:19:47,490 --> 00:19:48,650 So he filled his leather sock with water, 393 00:19:49,089 --> 00:19:50,849 held it in his mouth, 394 00:19:51,329 --> 00:19:53,609 climbed up, and gave the dog a drink. 395 00:19:54,329 --> 00:19:55,849 Allah appreciated his deed 396 00:19:56,329 --> 00:19:57,329 and forgave him." 397 00:19:58,269 --> 00:19:58,950 They asked, 398 00:19:59,430 --> 00:20:00,670 "O Messenger of Allah, 399 00:20:01,230 --> 00:20:03,750 will we truly be rewarded for serving animals?" 400 00:20:04,619 --> 00:20:05,220 He replied, 401 00:20:05,980 --> 00:20:08,859 "In serving every living being with a moist liver, there is a reward." 402 00:20:10,289 --> 00:20:12,490 Commentary on the hadith: 403 00:20:13,700 --> 00:20:14,380 "Panting" (yalhath) 404 00:20:14,900 --> 00:20:18,059 means its tongue was hanging out from extreme thirst or heat. 405 00:20:18,849 --> 00:20:20,009 "Licking the moist earth" (ya'kulu al-thara) 406 00:20:20,490 --> 00:20:21,930 refers to damp soil. 407 00:20:22,750 --> 00:20:23,990 "He held it in his mouth" 408 00:20:24,509 --> 00:20:26,349 means he held his leather sock between his teeth, 409 00:20:26,910 --> 00:20:30,630 because he had to use both hands to climb up out of the well. 410 00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:32,279 "Raqiya" 411 00:20:32,599 --> 00:20:33,440 means he ascended. 412 00:20:34,220 --> 00:20:36,019 "In every moist liver there is a reward" 413 00:20:36,619 --> 00:20:40,339 means in serving every living, animate creature. 414 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,000 Benefits derived from the hadith: 415 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,839 Providing water is the most virtuous form of charity; 416 00:20:50,599 --> 00:20:54,759 it encourages kindness toward every inviolable animal 417 00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:56,519 whose killing we have not been commanded; 418 00:20:57,339 --> 00:21:00,660 it underscores the prohibition of abusing any inviolable animal, 419 00:21:01,019 --> 00:21:02,140 and the sinfulness of doing so. 420 00:21:03,009 --> 00:21:04,490 Some Malikis argued 421 00:21:05,210 --> 00:21:06,769 that this hadith proves 422 00:21:07,210 --> 00:21:08,809 the ritual purity of a dog's leftover water, 423 00:21:09,289 --> 00:21:11,329 because some of its saliva would have remained in the leather sock. 424 00:21:14,589 --> 00:21:17,869 On the authority of 'Adi Ibn Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: 425 00:21:18,549 --> 00:21:22,789 "I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about the blunt-tipped arrow (mi'rad)," 426 00:21:23,470 --> 00:21:24,230 and he replied: 427 00:21:24,990 --> 00:21:27,549 "If it strikes with its sharp edge, eat; 428 00:21:28,369 --> 00:21:29,210 and in another narration: 429 00:21:29,730 --> 00:21:30,930 'Eat whatever it pierces.' 430 00:21:31,819 --> 00:21:34,460 But if it strikes with its broadside and kills, 431 00:21:34,980 --> 00:21:36,420 then it has been killed by a blunt impact (waqidh), 432 00:21:36,859 --> 00:21:38,059 so do not eat it." 433 00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:39,619 I said, 434 00:21:39,980 --> 00:21:41,220 "I release my hunting hound," 435 00:21:41,980 --> 00:21:42,579 and he said: 436 00:21:43,220 --> 00:21:44,819 "If you release your hound— 437

--> 00:21:50,819 then eat." 441 00:21:51,650 --> 00:21:52,170 I asked, 442 00:21:52,690 --> 00:21:53,690 "What if it eats from it?" 443 00:21:54,450 --> 00:21:55,089 He replied, 444 00:21:55,450 --> 00:21:56,650 "Then do not eat, 445 00:21:57,210 --> 00:21:59,289 for it did not catch it for you; 446 00:21:59,809 --> 00:22:02,170 it caught it only for itself." 447 00:22:03,019 --> 00:22:03,539 I asked, 448 00:22:04,180 --> 00:22:05,460 "What if I release my hound, 449 00:22:05,819 --> 00:22:08,220 but find another dog with it?" 450 00:22:09,059 --> 00:22:09,579 He said, 451 00:22:10,140 --> 00:22:11,299 "Do not eat, 452 00:22:11,980 --> 00:22:14,819 for you mentioned Allah's name only over your hound, 453 00:22:15,180 --> 00:22:17,500 not over the other." 454 00:22:18,450 --> 00:22:19,289 In another narration: 455 00:22:20,009 --> 00:22:24,289 "If you shoot game and find it after a day or two, 456 00:22:24,809 --> 00:22:27,130 bearing no mark other than your arrow, 457 00:22:27,650 --> 00:22:28,250 then eat; 458 00:22:28,970 --> 00:22:30,450 but if it has fallen into water, 459 00:22:30,930 --> 00:22:32,170 do not eat." 460 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:37,920 "Al-Mi'rad" 461 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,799 is a broad blade that has weight and heaviness. 462 00:22:42,660 --> 00:22:43,339 "With its sharp edge" 463 00:22:44,019 --> 00:22:45,700 means it cut or pierced, 464 00:22:46,259 --> 00:22:48,380 so the struck animal is properly slaughtered. 465 00:22:49,279 --> 00:22:50,000 "With its broadside" 466 00:22:50,559 --> 00:22:52,720 means it neither cut nor pierced, 467 00:22:53,319 --> 00:22:55,359 but killed merely through its heavy impact. 468 00:22:56,210 --> 00:22:57,009 "Waqidh" 469 00:22:57,650 --> 00:23:00,170 is game killed by a stick, blunt object, or the like. 470 00:23:00,980 --> 00:23:02,380 "It did not catch it for you": 471 00:23:03,019 --> 00:23:06,380 catching it for one's master requires that the hound not eat from it. 472 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,160 "Trained" 473 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,799 refers to a hound that desists when restrained, 474 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,039 pursues when dispatched, 475 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,559 and does not eat from the catch on a single occasion, 476 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,920 but consistently demonstrates this behavior. 477 00:23:19,130 --> 00:23:21,529 Benefits derived from the hadith: 478 00:23:23,039 --> 00:23:26,000 The Muslims are unanimously agreed on the permissibility of hunting 479 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,079 for earning a livelihood and out of need, 480 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,880 and utilizing game for food and other purposes; 481 00:23:31,769 --> 00:23:34,289 and that four conditions must be met 482 00:23:34,289 --> 00:23:36,289 for game caught by a hound to be lawful: 483 00:23:36,890 --> 00:23:37,690 first, 484 00:23:37,930 --> 00:23:38,930 intentionally dispatching the hound; 485 00:23:39,410 --> 00:23:40,210 second, 486 00:23:40,609 --> 00:23:42,009 that it be properly trained; 487 00:23:42,569 --> 00:23:43,329 third, 488 00:23:43,890 --> 00:23:47,130 that it catch the game for its master by not eating from it; 489 00:23:47,730 --> 00:23:48,569 and fourth, 490 00:23:49,130 --> 00:23:52,329 that one mention the name of Allah upon releasing it. 491 00:23:55,059 --> 00:23:59,099 Chapter: On Those Who Hold That Wudu Is Required Only from the Two Passages, 492 00:23:59,099 --> 00:24:01,099 the private parts and the anus. 493 00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:03,900 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, 494 00:24:04,180 --> 00:24:07,660 from the Prophet (peace be upon him), who said: 495 00:24:08,299 --> 00:24:12,460 "A person's prayer in congregation exceeds his prayer in his house 496 00:24:12,859 --> 00:24:14,900 and his prayer in his marketplace 497 00:24:15,220 --> 00:24:17,339 by twenty-five degrees. 498 00:24:18,079 --> 00:24:21,400 For when one of you performs wudu thoroughly, 499 00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:25,000 and comes to the mosque intending only to pray, 500 00:24:25,599 --> 00:24:30,000 he does not take a single step except that Allah raises him by it a degree, 501 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,400 and erases from him a sin, 502 00:24:32,799 --> 00:24:34,880 until he enters the mosque. 503 00:24:35,660 --> 00:24:37,339 Once he enters the mosque, 504 00:24:37,859 --> 00:24:41,259 he remains in prayer so long as the prayer detains him, 505 00:24:41,819 --> 00:24:42,859 and they pray— 506 00:24:43,220 --> 00:24:45,180 meaning the angels pray for him— 507 00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:48,339 so long as he remains in the spot where he prayed: 508 00:24:49,019 --> 00:24:50,660 'O Allah, forgive him; 509 00:24:51,180 --> 00:24:52,700 O Allah, have mercy upon him,' 510 00:24:53,259 --> 00:24:54,980 so long as he does not break his wudu therein." 511 00:24:55,849 --> 00:24:56,849 In another narration: 512 00:24:57,369 --> 00:24:58,970 "So long as he does not cause harm therein." 513 00:24:59,670 --> 00:25:00,789 In another narration: 514 00:25:01,269 --> 00:25:03,390 "So long as he does not stand up from his prayer." 515 00:25:04,259 --> 00:25:05,259 In another narration: 516 00:25:05,779 --> 00:25:07,660 "A non-Arab man asked, 517 00:25:08,140 --> 00:25:10,339 'What does breaking wudu mean, O Abu Hurayrah?' 518 00:25:10,900 --> 00:25:11,579 He replied, 519 00:25:11,940 --> 00:25:12,859 'A sound,' 520 00:25:13,259 --> 00:25:14,579 meaning passing wind with sound." 521 00:25:16,140 --> 00:25:18,420 Commentary on the hadith: 522 00:25:19,980 --> 00:25:21,259 "The prayer of the collective" 523 00:25:21,619 --> 00:25:23,220 means the congregational prayer. 524 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,640 "His prayer in his house" 525 00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:27,920 refers to praying alone, 526 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,519 since prayer at home is usually performed individually. 527 00:25:32,369 --> 00:25:34,210 "Performs wudu thoroughly": 528 00:25:34,730 --> 00:25:36,210 thoroughness in wudu 529 00:25:36,450 --> 00:25:39,529 means completing it properly while observing its Sunnahs and etiquettes. 530 00:25:40,250 --> 00:25:40,930 "Detains him" 531 00:25:41,450 --> 00:25:44,250 means remaining in the mosque waiting for the prayer. 532 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,759 "And the angels pray for him" 533 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,400 means they supplicate for him. 534 00:25:50,210 --> 00:25:51,650 "So long as he does not break his wudu therein" 535 00:25:52,049 --> 00:25:54,250 means so long as his wudu remains intact. 536 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,400 "So long as he does not cause harm therein" 537 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:02,559 means so long as he harms no one in his place of prayer with word or deed. 538 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,279 "Passing wind" 539 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,319 was mentioned to draw attention to the nullifiers of wudu. 540 00:26:08,710 --> 00:26:11,029 Benefits derived from the hadith: 541 00:26:12,609 --> 00:26:14,170 It is derived from the hadith 542 00:26:14,569 --> 00:26:16,730 that the virtue of congregational prayer is clarified, 543 00:26:17,369 --> 00:26:19,490 as well as the virtue of awaiting the prayer, 544 00:26:19,930 --> 00:26:21,650 for waiting for it is itself an act of worship; 545 00:26:22,369 --> 00:26:25,529 and it contains an exhortation to maintain one's state of wudu. 546 00:26:28,539 --> 00:26:29,980 On the authority of Zayd Ibn Khalid, 547 00:26:30,500 --> 00:26:33,940 who asked 'Uthman Ibn 'Affan (may Allah be pleased with him): 548 00:26:34,539 --> 00:26:35,059 "I said, 549 00:26:35,700 --> 00:26:38,700 'What is your view if a man has intercourse but does not ejaculate?' 550 00:26:39,490 --> 00:26:40,569 'Uthman replied, 551 00:26:41,130 --> 00:26:44,130 'He should perform wudu just as he does for prayer, 552 00:26:44,609 --> 00:26:46,009 and wash his penis.' 553 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:47,960 'Uthman added, 554 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,480 'I heard this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).' 555 00:26:52,799 --> 00:27:00,049 I then asked 'Ali, al-Zubayr, Talhah, and Ubayy Ibn Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with them) about that, 556 00:27:00,609 --> 00:27:02,289 and they instructed him to do the same." 557 00:27:03,559 --> 00:27:05,799 Commentary on the hadith: 558 00:27:06,819 --> 00:27:07,660 "What is your view?" 559 00:27:08,059 --> 00:27:09,299 means: "Inform me." 560 00:27:09,940 --> 00:27:11,019 "He does not ejaculate" 561 00:27:11,460 --> 00:27:14,700 means no semen was emitted that would necessitate ghusl. 562 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:16,839 "And wash his penis" 563 00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:19,160 because of its becoming defiled by prostatic fluid (madhy). 564 00:27:19,930 --> 00:27:21,410 "They instructed him to do the same" 565 00:27:22,009 --> 00:27:24,609 means merely performing wudu and washing the penis. 566 00:27:26,019 --> 00:27:28,380 Benefits derived from the hadith: 567 00:27:29,970 --> 00:27:32,289 In the hadith there is an inversion in phrasing, 568 00:27:32,809 --> 00:27:35,849 the intended order being: he washes his penis and then performs wudu, 569 00:27:36,410 --> 00:27:39,410 even though the conjunction 'and' (waw) does not inherently imply sequence, 570 00:27:39,849 --> 00:27:42,410 but rather simple combination. 571 00:27:43,180 --> 00:27:45,579 This hadith has been abrogated by scholarly consensus: 572 00:27:46,059 --> 00:27:47,740 once the two circumcised parts meet, 573 00:27:47,940 --> 00:27:49,500 ghusl becomes obligatory upon him, 574 00:27:49,859 --> 00:27:51,940 whether he ejaculated or not. 575 00:27:54,650 --> 00:27:56,730 On the authority of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, 576 00:27:57,289 --> 00:28:00,450 that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) 577 00:28:00,450 --> 00:28:03,210 sent for a man from the Ansar, 578 00:28:03,769 --> 00:28:06,089 who arrived with his head dripping wet. 579 00:28:06,859 --> 00:28:09,819 The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 580 00:28:10,420 --> 00:28:12,420 "Perhaps we rushed you?" 581 00:28:12,980 --> 00:28:14,259 He replied, "Yes." 582 00:28:14,900 --> 00:28:18,220 The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) then said, 583 00:28:18,859 --> 00:28:21,180 "If you are rushed or interrupted before climaxing, 584 00:28:21,619 --> 00:28:23,180 then you need only perform wudu." 585 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,880 Commentary on the hadith: 586 00:28:27,980 --> 00:28:29,539 "A man from the Ansar" 587 00:28:30,019 --> 00:28:32,940 was 'Itban Ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). 588 00:28:33,710 --> 00:28:35,109 "With his head dripping" 589 00:28:35,670 --> 00:28:38,670 means dripping with water from performing ghusl. 590 00:28:39,559 --> 00:28:40,519 "We rushed you" 591 00:28:41,079 --> 00:28:42,319 means we hurried you, 592 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,400 so you did not fulfill your need during intercourse. 593 00:28:46,250 --> 00:28:47,049 "Quhit-ta" 594 00:28:47,730 --> 00:28:48,890 comes from aqhata al-rajul, 595 00:28:49,450 --> 00:28:52,369 if one engages in intercourse but experiences no ejaculation. 596 00:28:53,390 --> 00:28:55,750 Among the benefits derived from this hadith: 597 00:28:57,299 --> 00:28:59,660 The hadith has been abrogated, as mentioned previously. 598 00:29:00,369 --> 00:29:03,009 It also indicates the recommendation of remaining constantly in a state of ritual purity, 599 00:29:03,609 --> 00:29:06,369 for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) 600 00:29:06,369 --> 00:29:09,009 did not reprimand him for delaying his response. 601 00:29:09,789 --> 00:29:12,750 It also shows the permissibility of relying on strong circumstantial evidence, 602 00:29:13,349 --> 00:29:17,829 as the traces of the ritual bath indicated that he had been occupied with intimate relations.
