00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:09,779
Riyadh al-Salihin from the words of the Master of the Messengers, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

2
00:00:09,779 --> 00:00:16,379
Chapter: The Miracles (Karamat) of the Awliya and their Virtues.

3
00:00:16,379 --> 00:00:19,660
Allah the Exalted said:

4
00:00:19,660 --> 00:00:26,750
“Lo! verily the friends of Allah are (those) on whom fear (cometh) not, nor do they grieve?” (10:62)

5
00:00:26,750 --> 00:00:30,750
"Those who believed and used to fear Allah."

6
00:00:30,750 --> 00:00:38,750
“Theirs are good tidings in the life of the world and in the Hereafter - There is no changing the Words of Allah - that is the Supreme Triumph.” (10:64)

7
00:00:38,750 --> 00:00:41,750
"That is the great attainment."

8
00:00:41,750 --> 00:00:43,820
And He the Exalted said:

9
00:00:43,820 --> 00:00:49,820
“And shake the trunk of the palm-tree toward thee, thou wilt cause ripe dates to fall upon thee.” (19:25)

10
00:00:49,820 --> 00:00:52,820
"So eat and drink."

11
00:00:52,820 --> 00:00:53,820
The verse.

12
00:00:53,820 --> 00:00:56,009
And He the Exalted said:

13
00:00:56,009 --> 00:01:02,070
“And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.” (3:37)

14
00:01:02,070 --> 00:01:06,069
"He said, 'O Maryam, from where is this [coming] to you?'"

15
00:01:06,069 --> 00:01:09,069
“And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.” (3:37)

16
00:01:09,069 --> 00:01:15,069
“And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.” (3:37)

17
00:01:15,069 --> 00:01:17,260
And He the Exalted said:

18
00:01:17,260 --> 00:01:22,260
"And when you have withdrawn from them and that which they worship other than Allah..."

19
00:01:22,260 --> 00:01:27,260
“And when ye withdraw from them and that which they worship except Allah, then seek refuge in the Cave; your Lord will spread for you of His mercy and will prepare for you a pillow in your plight.” (18:16)

20
00:01:27,260 --> 00:01:32,260
“And when ye withdraw from them and that which they worship except Allah, then seek refuge in the Cave; your Lord will spread for you of His mercy and will prepare for you a pillow in your plight.” (18:16)

21
00:01:32,260 --> 00:01:38,260
“And thou mightest have seen the sun when it rose move away from their cave to the right, and when it set go past them on the left, and they were in the cleft thereof. That was (one) of the portents of Allah. He whom Allah guideth, he indeed is led aright, and he whom He sendeth astray, for him thou wilt not find a guiding friend.” (18:17)

22
00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:42,260
“And thou mightest have seen the sun when it rose move away from their cave to the right, and when it set go past them on the left, and they were in the cleft thereof. That was (one) of the portents of Allah. He whom Allah guideth, he indeed is led aright, and he whom He sendeth astray, for him thou wilt not find a guiding friend.” (18:17)

23
00:01:42,260 --> 00:01:44,359
The verse.

24
00:01:44,359 --> 00:01:52,579
On the authority of Abu Muhammad ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with them both:

25
00:01:52,579 --> 00:01:56,579
That the People of the Suffah were people of poverty.

26
00:01:56,579 --> 00:02:01,579
And that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said one time:

27
00:02:01,579 --> 00:02:06,609
"Whoever has food for two, let him take a third."

28
00:02:06,609 --> 00:02:09,610
"And whoever has food for four,"

29
00:02:09,610 --> 00:02:12,610
"Let him take a fifth or a sixth."

30
00:02:12,610 --> 00:02:14,699
Or as he said.

31
00:02:14,699 --> 00:02:18,699
And Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, brought three.

32
00:02:18,699 --> 00:02:23,699
And the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, went off with ten.

33
00:02:23,699 --> 00:02:29,740
And Abu Bakr had dinner at the home of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

34
00:02:29,740 --> 00:02:33,740
Then he stayed until he prayed the ‘Isha prayer.

35
00:02:33,740 --> 00:02:35,740
Then he returned.

36
00:02:35,740 --> 00:02:39,900
He came after as much of the night had passed as Allah willed.

37
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:41,900
His wife said:

38
00:02:41,900 --> 00:02:44,930
"What kept you from your guests?"

39
00:02:44,930 --> 00:02:47,930
He said, "Have you not fed them yet?"

40
00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:53,960
She said, "They refused until you came, and they had been offered [the food]."

41
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,990
He said, "So I went away and hid."

42
00:02:57,990 --> 00:03:00,990
He [Abu Bakr] said, "O Ghunthar!"

43
00:03:00,990 --> 00:03:02,990
He scolded and insulted.

44
00:03:02,990 --> 00:03:06,990
And he said, "Eat, may it not be pleasant for you."

45
00:03:06,990 --> 00:03:11,090
"By Allah, I will never eat it."

46
00:03:11,090 --> 00:03:13,090
He said, "And by Allah,"

47
00:03:13,090 --> 00:03:16,090
"We would not take a morsel,"

48
00:03:16,090 --> 00:03:20,090
"But that more than it would grow from beneath it."

49
00:03:20,090 --> 00:03:22,090
Until they were satisfied.

50
00:03:22,090 --> 00:03:26,120
And it became more than it was before that.

51
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,120
So Abu Bakr looked at it.

52
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,120
And he said to his wife:

53
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,120
"O sister of Banu Firas,"

54
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,150
"What is this?"

55
00:03:34,150 --> 00:03:38,150
She said, "No, by the coolness of my eyes,"

56
00:03:38,150 --> 00:03:43,150
"It is now more than it was before that by three times."

57
00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:46,310
So Abu Bakr ate from it.

58
00:03:46,310 --> 00:03:51,310
And he said, "That was only from the Shaytan."

59
00:03:51,310 --> 00:03:53,310
Meaning his oath.

60
00:03:53,310 --> 00:03:55,310
Then he ate a morsel from it.

61
00:03:55,310 --> 00:04:00,379
Then he carried it to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

62
00:04:00,379 --> 00:04:02,539
And it remained with him.

63
00:04:02,539 --> 00:04:05,539
There was a treaty between us and a people.

64
00:04:05,539 --> 00:04:07,539
The term expired.

65
00:04:07,539 --> 00:04:10,539
Then twelve men separated.

66
00:04:10,539 --> 00:04:13,539
With each man of them were people.

67
00:04:13,539 --> 00:04:17,540
Allah knows best how many were with each man.

68
00:04:17,540 --> 00:04:20,629
So they all ate from it.

69
00:04:20,629 --> 00:04:22,660
And in a narration:

70
00:04:22,660 --> 00:04:25,660
Abu Bakr swore not to eat it.

71
00:04:25,660 --> 00:04:28,660
So the woman swore not to eat it.

72
00:04:28,660 --> 00:04:31,699
So the guest or the guests swore,

73
00:04:31,699 --> 00:04:34,699
That they would not eat it, or let him eat it,

74
00:04:34,699 --> 00:04:36,699
Until he ate it.

75
00:04:36,699 --> 00:04:38,860
So Abu Bakr said:

76
00:04:38,860 --> 00:04:41,860
"This is from the Shaytan."

77
00:04:41,860 --> 00:04:43,860
So he called for the food.

78
00:04:43,860 --> 00:04:45,860
And he ate, and they ate.

79
00:04:45,860 --> 00:04:48,860
And they would not lift a morsel,

80
00:04:48,860 --> 00:04:52,860
But that more than it grew from beneath it.

81
00:04:52,860 --> 00:04:53,860
So he said:

82
00:04:53,860 --> 00:04:57,860
"O sister of Banu Firas, what is this?"

83
00:04:57,860 --> 00:04:58,889
She said:

84
00:04:58,889 --> 00:05:00,889
"By the coolness of my eyes,"

85
00:05:00,889 --> 00:05:05,889
"It is now more than it was before we ate."

86
00:05:05,889 --> 00:05:07,889
So they ate.

87
00:05:07,889 --> 00:05:11,889
And they sent it to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

88
00:05:11,889 --> 00:05:14,889
And he mentioned that he ate from it.

89
00:05:14,889 --> 00:05:17,180
And in a narration:

90
00:05:17,180 --> 00:05:21,180
That Abu Bakr said to ‘Abd al-Rahman:

91
00:05:21,180 --> 00:05:23,180
"Take care of your guests,"

92
00:05:23,180 --> 00:05:28,180
"For I am going to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him."

93
00:05:28,180 --> 00:05:32,180
"So finish their hospitality before I come."

94
00:05:32,269 --> 00:05:34,269
So ‘Abd al-Rahman went off.

95
00:05:34,269 --> 00:05:36,269
And he brought them what he had.

96
00:05:36,269 --> 00:05:38,269
He said:

97
00:05:38,269 --> 00:05:39,269
"Eat."

98
00:05:39,269 --> 00:05:41,300
They said:

99
00:05:41,300 --> 00:05:43,300
"Where is the master of our house?"

100
00:05:43,300 --> 00:05:44,300
He said:

101
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:46,300
"Eat."

102
00:05:46,300 --> 00:05:47,300
They said:

103
00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:52,300
"We will not eat until the master of our house comes."

104
00:05:52,300 --> 00:05:53,339
He said:

105
00:05:53,339 --> 00:05:56,339
"Accept our hospitality from us,"

106
00:05:56,339 --> 00:05:59,339
"For if he comes and you have not eaten,"

107
00:05:59,339 --> 00:06:01,339
"We will surely face [trouble] from him."

108
00:06:01,339 --> 00:06:03,339
But they refused.

109
00:06:03,339 --> 00:06:06,339
So I knew that he would be angry with me.

110
00:06:06,339 --> 00:06:09,339
When he came, I stepped aside from him.

111
00:06:09,339 --> 00:06:11,339
He said:

112
00:06:11,339 --> 00:06:12,339
"What have you done?"

113
00:06:12,339 --> 00:06:14,339
So they informed him.

114
00:06:14,339 --> 00:06:15,339
He said:

115
00:06:15,339 --> 00:06:17,339
"O ‘Abd al-Rahman!"

116
00:06:17,339 --> 00:06:19,339
So I remained silent.

117
00:06:19,339 --> 00:06:20,339
Then he said:

118
00:06:20,339 --> 00:06:22,339
"O ‘Abd al-Rahman!"

119
00:06:22,339 --> 00:06:24,339
So I remained silent.

120
00:06:24,339 --> 00:06:25,339
He said:

121
00:06:25,339 --> 00:06:27,339
"O Ghunthar!"

122
00:06:27,339 --> 00:06:32,339
"I adjure you, if you hear my voice, to come."

123
00:06:32,339 --> 00:06:34,339
So I came out and said:

124
00:06:34,339 --> 00:06:36,339
"Ask your guests."

125
00:06:36,339 --> 00:06:37,339
They said:

126
00:06:37,339 --> 00:06:38,339
"He speaks the truth."

127
00:06:38,339 --> 00:06:40,339
"He brought it to us."

128
00:06:40,339 --> 00:06:41,399
He said:

129
00:06:41,399 --> 00:06:44,399
"You only waited for me?"

130
00:06:44,399 --> 00:06:47,399
"By Allah, I will not eat it tonight."

131
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:49,500
The others said:

132
00:06:49,500 --> 00:06:53,500
"By Allah, we will not eat it until you eat it."

133
00:06:53,500 --> 00:06:54,560
He said:

134
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560
"Woe to you!"

135
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,560
"Why do you not accept our hospitality from us?"

136
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,689
"Bring your food."

137
00:07:02,689 --> 00:07:03,689
So he brought it.

138
00:07:03,689 --> 00:07:05,689
He placed his hand [on it].

139
00:07:05,689 --> 00:07:06,689
He said:

140
00:07:06,689 --> 00:07:08,689
"In the name of Allah."

141
00:07:08,689 --> 00:07:10,689
"The first was from the Shaytan."

142
00:07:10,689 --> 00:07:13,720
So they ate and ate.

143
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,980
Agreed upon.

144
00:07:15,980 --> 00:07:17,980
His saying "Ghunthar":

145
00:07:17,980 --> 00:07:21,139
Meaning the foolish, ignorant one.

146
00:07:21,139 --> 00:07:23,139
And his saying "Fajada‘a":

147
00:07:23,139 --> 00:07:25,139
Meaning he insulted him.

148
00:07:25,139 --> 00:07:27,300
And the *jad‘* is cutting.

149
00:07:27,300 --> 00:07:29,300
His saying "Yajidu ‘alayya":

150
00:07:29,300 --> 00:07:31,300
Meaning he is angry with me.

151
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:34,160
From the benefits of the hadith:

152
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,449
The permissibility of the poor seeking refuge

153
00:07:36,449 --> 00:07:38,449
In mosques

154
00:07:38,449 --> 00:07:40,449
When in need of assistance,

155
00:07:40,449 --> 00:07:42,449
Provided there is no

156
00:07:42,449 --> 00:07:44,449
Persistence or disturbance

157
00:07:44,449 --> 00:07:47,019
To the worshippers.

158
00:07:47,019 --> 00:07:48,019
The permissibility of being stern

159
00:07:48,019 --> 00:07:50,019
With family, children, and guests

160
00:07:50,019 --> 00:07:53,019
If you have provided them with sufficiency.

161
00:07:53,019 --> 00:07:56,629
The permissibility of conversing with the guest and family.

162
00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:57,629
For Abu Bakr

163
00:07:57,629 --> 00:08:00,629
Returned to his family and guests

164
00:08:00,629 --> 00:08:05,629
After he prayed ‘Isha with the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

165
00:08:05,629 --> 00:08:08,629
And what was mentioned in the hadith took place between them.

166
00:08:08,629 --> 00:08:12,139
The permissibility of a woman acting

167
00:08:12,139 --> 00:08:15,139
Regarding what is presented to the guest and feeding them

168
00:08:15,139 --> 00:08:18,139
Without specific permission from the man.

169
00:08:18,139 --> 00:08:20,660
The permissibility of a father scolding his son

170
00:08:20,660 --> 00:08:23,660
For the purpose of discipline and training

171
00:08:23,660 --> 00:08:26,660
In good deeds and engaging in them.

172
00:08:26,660 --> 00:08:30,170
The permissibility of swearing to abandon a permissible act.

173
00:08:30,170 --> 00:08:34,710
A truthful man confirming his report with an oath.

174
00:08:34,710 --> 00:08:38,159
The permissibility of breaking an oath after making it

175
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:42,159
If it contains a thwarting of the Shaytan.

176
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:45,159
Because he intended by his oath to him

177
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:49,159
To cause estrangement between him and his guests.

178
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:52,159
So Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, disgraced him

179
00:08:52,159 --> 00:08:55,159
By breaking the oath, which is better.

180
00:08:55,159 --> 00:08:59,580
Seeking blessings from the food of the Awliya and the righteous.

181
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:03,090
Presenting food in which appears

182
00:09:03,090 --> 00:09:06,090
Blessing to the elders, and their acceptance of that.

183
00:09:06,090 --> 00:09:09,570
Acting upon the predominant assumption.

184
00:09:09,570 --> 00:09:12,570
Because Abu Bakr assumed that ‘Abd al-Rahman

185
00:09:12,570 --> 00:09:15,570
Was negligent in the matter of the guests.

186
00:09:15,570 --> 00:09:17,570
So he hastened to scold him.

187
00:09:17,570 --> 00:09:21,570
And the evidence for him was his hiding from him.

188
00:09:21,570 --> 00:09:24,950
An explanation of what occurs of the kindness of Allah the Exalted

189
00:09:24,950 --> 00:09:26,950
To His Awliya.

190
00:09:26,950 --> 00:09:30,500
Using noble character with the guest.

191
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:33,500
For Abu Bakr broke his oath for his own sake

192
00:09:33,500 --> 00:09:36,500
As an increase in honoring his guest

193
00:09:36,500 --> 00:09:39,500
So that his objective of their eating might be achieved.

194
00:09:39,500 --> 00:09:43,500
And because he was more capable than them of [paying] the expiation.

195
00:09:43,500 --> 00:09:48,549
And on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, he said:

196
00:09:48,549 --> 00:09:52,549
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

197
00:09:52,549 --> 00:09:55,549
"There were among the nations before you"

198
00:09:55,549 --> 00:09:58,549
"People who were inspired (muhaddathun)."

199
00:09:58,549 --> 00:10:00,549
"And if there is anyone in my Ummah [like that],"

200
00:10:00,549 --> 00:10:02,549
"It is ‘Umar."

201
00:10:02,549 --> 00:10:04,649
Narrated by al-Bukhari.

202
00:10:04,649 --> 00:10:08,779
And it was narrated by Muslim from the narration of ‘A’ishah.

203
00:10:08,779 --> 00:10:11,779
And in their narration, Ibn Wahb said:

204
00:10:11,779 --> 00:10:13,779
"Muhaddathun"

205
00:10:13,779 --> 00:10:15,779
Meaning: those who are inspired.

206
00:10:15,779 --> 00:10:19,669
From the benefits of the hadith:

207
00:10:19,669 --> 00:10:22,830
An explanation of a merit for ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him.

208
00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:25,340
‘Umar was distinguished by that.

209
00:10:25,340 --> 00:10:30,340
Due to the many instances that occurred for him during the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

210
00:10:30,340 --> 00:10:32,340
of divine concurrences,

211
00:10:32,340 --> 00:10:35,340
where the Qur'an was revealed in accordance with his views.

212
00:10:35,340 --> 00:10:39,340
And there occurred for him after the Prophet, peace be upon him,

213
00:10:39,340 --> 00:10:41,340
several instances of insight,

214
00:10:41,340 --> 00:10:43,730
such as true inspiration,

215
00:10:43,730 --> 00:10:46,730
intuitive discernment, and truthful visions.

216
00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:49,730
These are not considered legal proofs for rulings.

217
00:10:49,730 --> 00:10:51,730
Even if their occurrence is verified,

218
00:10:51,730 --> 00:10:53,730
one does not pass judgment based upon them.

219
00:10:53,730 --> 00:10:57,730
Rather, they must be presented to the Qur'an and the Sunnah.

220
00:10:57,730 --> 00:11:00,730
If they are in agreement with them, they are acted upon;

221
00:11:00,730 --> 00:11:02,730
otherwise, they are abandoned.

222
00:11:02,730 --> 00:11:07,850
On the authority of Jabir ibn Samurah, may Allah be pleased with both of them, he said:

223
00:11:07,850 --> 00:11:10,850
The people of Kufa complained about Sa'd,

224
00:11:10,850 --> 00:11:13,850
meaning Ibn Abi Waqqas, may Allah be pleased with him,

225
00:11:13,850 --> 00:11:17,850
to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him.

226
00:11:17,850 --> 00:11:19,850
So he dismissed him,

227
00:11:19,850 --> 00:11:22,850
and appointed 'Ammar over them.

228
00:11:22,850 --> 00:11:23,850
They complained,

229
00:11:23,850 --> 00:11:27,850
to the point that they claimed he did not perform the prayer correctly.

230
00:11:27,850 --> 00:11:29,850
So he sent for him,

231
00:11:29,850 --> 00:11:30,850
and said,

232
00:11:30,850 --> 00:11:32,850
"O Abu Ishaq,

233
00:11:32,850 --> 00:11:37,850
these people claim that you do not perform the prayer correctly."

234
00:11:37,850 --> 00:11:38,850
He replied,

235
00:11:38,850 --> 00:11:40,850
"As for me, by Allah,

236
00:11:40,850 --> 00:11:46,850
I used to lead them in the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

237
00:11:46,850 --> 00:11:49,909
without omitting anything from it.

238
00:11:49,909 --> 00:11:51,909
I would perform the 'Isha prayer,

239
00:11:51,909 --> 00:11:53,909
and I would prolong the first two rak'ahs,

240
00:11:53,909 --> 00:11:56,909
and shorten the last two."

241
00:11:56,909 --> 00:11:57,909
He said,

242
00:11:57,909 --> 00:12:01,909
"That is what I thought of you, O Abu Ishaq."

243
00:12:01,909 --> 00:12:06,039
He sent a man, or men, with him to Kufa,

244
00:12:06,039 --> 00:12:09,039
to ask the people of Kufa about him.

245
00:12:09,039 --> 00:12:12,200
He did not leave a single mosque without asking about him,

246
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,200
and they would praise him well,

247
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,200
until he entered a mosque of the Banu 'Abs.

248
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,200
A man among them stood up,

249
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,200
called Usamah ibn Qatadah,

250
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,200
known by the kunyah Abu Sa'dah,

251
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,259
and said,

252
00:12:27,259 --> 00:12:29,259
"Since you have pressed us to speak,

253
00:12:29,259 --> 00:12:33,259
Sa'd would not accompany the military detachments,

254
00:12:33,259 --> 00:12:35,259
nor would he distribute equally,

255
00:12:35,259 --> 00:12:38,259
nor would he be just in his judgments."

256
00:12:38,259 --> 00:12:40,490
Sa'd said,

257
00:12:40,490 --> 00:12:43,580
"By Allah, I will invoke three things against you:

258
00:12:43,580 --> 00:12:47,899
O Allah, if this servant of Yours is a liar,

259
00:12:47,899 --> 00:12:50,899
having stood up out of hypocrisy and for reputation,

260
00:12:50,899 --> 00:12:52,899
then prolong his life,

261
00:12:52,899 --> 00:12:54,899
prolong his poverty,

262
00:12:54,899 --> 00:12:56,899
and expose him to trials."

263
00:12:56,899 --> 00:13:01,029
After that, when he was asked, he would say,

264
00:13:01,029 --> 00:13:04,029
"An old man, tried and afflicted;

265
00:13:04,029 --> 00:13:07,450
the supplication of Sa'd has struck me."

266
00:13:07,450 --> 00:13:09,450
'Abd al-Malik ibn 'Umayr said,

267
00:13:09,450 --> 00:13:12,450
the narrator from Jabir ibn Samurah,

268
00:13:12,450 --> 00:13:14,450
"I saw him afterwards,

269
00:13:14,450 --> 00:13:18,450
his eyebrows had fallen over his eyes from old age,

270
00:13:18,450 --> 00:13:22,450
and he would accost young women in the streets,

271
00:13:22,450 --> 00:13:24,639
and wink at them."

272
00:13:24,639 --> 00:13:26,639
Agreed upon.

273
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:30,440
Appointed 'Ammar over them:

274
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,539
meaning in the affairs of prayer.

275
00:13:33,539 --> 00:13:35,539
O Abu Ishaq:

276
00:13:35,539 --> 00:13:39,659
The kunyah of Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, may Allah be pleased with him.

277
00:13:39,659 --> 00:13:40,659
Without omitting:

278
00:13:40,659 --> 00:13:42,659
meaning I do not fall short.

279
00:13:42,659 --> 00:13:45,950
I would prolong the first two:

280
00:13:45,950 --> 00:13:49,950
meaning I would stand for a long time by lengthening the recitation in them.

281
00:13:49,950 --> 00:13:52,340
That is what I thought of you:

282
00:13:52,340 --> 00:13:54,340
meaning this which we say,

283
00:13:54,340 --> 00:13:57,340
is what we expected of you.

284
00:13:57,340 --> 00:13:59,590
Banu 'Abs:

285
00:13:59,590 --> 00:14:02,590
A large tribe from Qays.

286
00:14:02,590 --> 00:14:04,659
Pressed us to speak:

287
00:14:04,659 --> 00:14:06,659
meaning you demanded that we speak.

288
00:14:06,659 --> 00:14:08,820
Would not accompany the military detachment:

289
00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:11,820
meaning he would not go out with the detachment,

290
00:14:11,820 --> 00:14:13,820
which is a portion of the army.

291
00:14:13,820 --> 00:14:15,980
Judgment:

292
00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:17,980
meaning the verdict.

293
00:14:17,980 --> 00:14:20,039
Hypocrisy and reputation:

294
00:14:20,039 --> 00:14:23,039
meaning so that people would see him and hear him,

295
00:14:23,039 --> 00:14:27,039
and he would thereby gain fame and notoriety.

296
00:14:27,039 --> 00:14:29,679
From the benefits of the hadith:

297
00:14:29,679 --> 00:14:31,940
People's complaints and grievances

298
00:14:31,940 --> 00:14:34,940
are to be raised to the Commander of the Believers.

299
00:14:34,940 --> 00:14:37,289
It is incumbent upon the leader

300
00:14:37,289 --> 00:14:39,289
not to judge based on hearing from one side

301
00:14:39,289 --> 00:14:43,289
before verifying and hearing from the other side.

302
00:14:43,289 --> 00:14:47,769
There exist in every age people who are hypocrites,

303
00:14:47,769 --> 00:14:51,769
seeking to distort and falsify the truth

304
00:14:51,769 --> 00:14:54,769
to disparage the righteous among the servants of Allah.

305
00:14:54,769 --> 00:14:58,179
The permissibility of the oppressed supplicating against the oppressor

306
00:14:58,179 --> 00:15:00,179
in the same manner as they were oppressed.

307
00:15:00,179 --> 00:15:05,600
Allah the Exalted answers the supplication of His oppressed servants,

308
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,600
so how much more so when three qualities are combined in them:

309
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:14,139
love for Allah, devotion to Him, and the oppression of others against them.

310
00:15:14,139 --> 00:15:18,139
A sign of honor for Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, may Allah be pleased with him,

311
00:15:18,139 --> 00:15:20,139
is that his supplications were answered.

312
00:15:21,139 --> 00:15:23,139
The supplication of Sa'd was indeed realized,

313
00:15:23,139 --> 00:15:26,139
for this hypocritical slanderer

314
00:15:26,139 --> 00:15:30,139
had his life prolonged, became poor, and was afflicted with trials,

315
00:15:30,139 --> 00:15:33,139
as he would accost young women in the pathways,

316
00:15:33,139 --> 00:15:36,139
with his eyebrows having fallen over his eyes from old age,

317
00:15:36,139 --> 00:15:38,879
and he would wink at them.

318
00:15:38,879 --> 00:15:42,879
Riyad al-Salihin.
