Hadith and commentary

2
00:00:03,879 --> 00:00:09,080
On the authority of 'Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, who said:

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:14,640
We pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, to hear and obey,

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,320
In times of our eagerness and our aversion,

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,920
And in our hardship and our ease.

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,359
End of the hadith.

Commentary:

8
00:00:23,489 --> 00:00:24,910
"Eagerness" refers to:

9
00:00:24,910 --> 00:00:29,750
The state in which a person is inclined to obey their leader.

10
00:00:29,750 --> 00:00:31,269
And "aversion" refers to:

11
00:00:31,429 --> 00:00:35,189
The state in which a person dislikes obeying him.

12
00:00:35,189 --> 00:00:38,469
Thus, obedience to him is mandatory in both states,

13
00:00:38,469 --> 00:00:41,270
Provided he does not command an act of disobedience to Allah.
