00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,099
The Everlasting Deeds

2
00:00:04,099 --> 00:00:08,859
The Everlasting Deeds of righteousness

3
00:00:08,859 --> 00:00:13,289
The reward of the mu'adhdhins with their Lord

4
00:00:13,289 --> 00:00:18,289
On the authority of Mu'awiyah Ibn Abi Sufyan, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said:

5
00:00:18,289 --> 00:00:23,420
I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, say:

6
00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:29,179
"The mu'adhdhins will have the longest necks of all people on the Day of Resurrection."

7
00:00:29,179 --> 00:00:31,910
Narrated by Muslim.

8
00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:38,909
This hadith highlights the elevated status and lofty rank of the mu'adhdhins on the Day of Resurrection,

9
00:00:38,909 --> 00:00:42,909
whether this is through their outward distinction,

10
00:00:42,909 --> 00:00:45,909
by having long necks so that people may recognize them,

11
00:00:45,909 --> 00:00:48,909
and so that they may be spared the terrors of that gathering,

12
00:00:48,909 --> 00:00:51,909
or through their spiritual distinction,

13
00:00:51,909 --> 00:00:55,909
which is manifested in the height of their ranks and their honor among all creation,

14
00:00:55,909 --> 00:00:58,909
as a reward for them having raised the remembrance of Allah,

15
00:00:58,909 --> 00:01:01,909
and for their calling of the servants to prayer.
