1 00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:09,779 Riyad al-Salihin from the words of the Master of the Messengers, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 2 00:00:09,779 --> 00:00:14,220 Chapter: The Virtue of Jihad. 3 00:00:14,220 --> 00:00:19,940 On the authority of Abu Sa‘id al-Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him: 4 00:00:19,940 --> 00:00:25,940 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, sent an expedition to the Banu Lihyan. 5 00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:26,940 He said: 6 00:00:26,940 --> 00:00:30,940 "Let one man out of every two go forth." 7 00:00:30,940 --> 00:00:32,939 "And the reward shall be shared between them." 8 00:00:32,939 --> 00:00:34,979 Reported by Muslim. 9 00:00:34,979 --> 00:00:37,009 In a narration of his: 10 00:00:37,009 --> 00:00:40,009 "Let one man out of every two depart." 11 00:00:40,009 --> 00:00:42,009 Then he said to the one who remained behind: 12 00:00:42,009 --> 00:00:47,009 "Whoever among you looks after the family and wealth of the one who departed with goodness," 13 00:00:47,009 --> 00:00:51,009 "shall have half the reward of the one who departed." 14 00:00:51,009 --> 00:00:54,969 From the benefits of the hadith: 15 00:00:54,969 --> 00:01:00,060 The obligation to wage war against the disbelievers who obstruct the path of Allah. 16 00:01:00,060 --> 00:01:02,060 The scholars have reached a consensus 17 00:01:02,060 --> 00:01:06,060 that the Banu Lihyan were disbelievers at that time. 18 00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:12,060 Thus, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, sent a detachment to fight them. 19 00:01:12,060 --> 00:01:17,670 The obligation of cooperation among Muslims to equip the Muslim army. 20 00:01:17,670 --> 00:01:23,090 The obligation to protect the homes of the mujahidin and safeguard their honor. 21 00:01:23,090 --> 00:01:27,090 And to facilitate the means of a dignified life for their families. 22 00:01:27,090 --> 00:01:32,659 Whoever takes care of the needs of the families of the soldiers fighting in the path of Allah 23 00:01:32,659 --> 00:01:35,659 receives a reward equal to theirs. 24 00:01:35,659 --> 00:01:40,659 On the authority of al-Bara’, may Allah be pleased with him, he said: 25 00:01:40,659 --> 00:01:45,659 A man covered in iron [armor] came to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 26 00:01:45,659 --> 00:01:48,659 He said, "O Messenger of Allah," 27 00:01:48,659 --> 00:01:51,659 "Should I fight or embrace Islam?" 28 00:01:51,659 --> 00:01:55,659 He replied, "Embrace Islam, then fight." 29 00:01:55,659 --> 00:01:59,659 So he embraced Islam, then fought, and was killed. 30 00:01:59,659 --> 00:02:02,659 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 31 00:02:02,659 --> 00:02:06,659 "He did a little, but was rewarded much." 32 00:02:06,659 --> 00:02:10,750 Agreed upon, and this is the wording of al-Bukhari. 33 00:02:10,750 --> 00:02:16,030 "Covered in iron" means covered in weaponry. 34 00:02:16,030 --> 00:02:20,030 Or that he had a helmet on his head. 35 00:02:20,030 --> 00:02:25,900 From the benefits of the hadith: It contains the permissibility of wearing iron [armor]. 36 00:02:25,900 --> 00:02:29,900 And what prevents the enemy from easily reaching him. 37 00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:32,900 And that this does not contradict the love of martyrdom. 38 00:02:33,900 --> 00:02:38,439 Whoever performs an act that appears righteous before his Islam and then dies, 39 00:02:38,439 --> 00:02:41,439 no reward is recorded for him. 40 00:02:41,439 --> 00:02:46,020 Islam takes precedence over supporting the Muslims. 41 00:02:46,020 --> 00:02:50,500 The impermissibility of seeking the help of polytheists in battle. 42 00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:55,909 Allah, glory be to Him, looks at the hearts of His servants and their sincerity toward Him, 43 00:02:55,909 --> 00:02:59,360 not at their outward appearances. 44 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,360 A small deed may suffice in place of a great one. 45 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:11,090 On the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 46 00:03:11,090 --> 00:03:14,090 "No one who enters Paradise" 47 00:03:14,090 --> 00:03:19,090 "would wish to return to the world, even if he possessed everything on earth," 48 00:03:19,090 --> 00:03:21,090 "except the martyr." 49 00:03:21,090 --> 00:03:24,090 "He wishes to return to the world" 50 00:03:24,090 --> 00:03:26,090 "to be killed ten times over," 51 00:03:26,090 --> 00:03:29,090 "because of the honor he sees." 52 00:03:29,090 --> 00:03:31,219 In another narration: 53 00:03:31,219 --> 00:03:34,280 "Because of what he sees of the virtue of martyrdom." 54 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,659 Agreed upon. 55 00:03:36,659 --> 00:03:40,659 On the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘As, may Allah be pleased with them both: 56 00:03:40,659 --> 00:03:45,659 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 57 00:03:45,659 --> 00:03:48,659 "Allah forgives the martyr every sin," 58 00:03:48,659 --> 00:03:50,659 "except debt." 59 00:03:50,659 --> 00:03:52,759 Reported by Muslim. 60 00:03:52,759 --> 00:03:54,759 In a narration of his: 61 00:03:54,759 --> 00:03:58,789 "Killing in the path of Allah expiates everything," 62 00:03:58,789 --> 00:04:01,430 "except debt." 63 00:04:01,430 --> 00:04:04,430 On the authority of Abu Qatadah, may Allah be pleased with him: 64 00:04:04,430 --> 00:04:09,430 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, stood among them, 65 00:04:09,430 --> 00:04:12,430 and mentioned that jihad in the path of Allah, 66 00:04:12,430 --> 00:04:14,430 and faith in Allah, 67 00:04:14,430 --> 00:04:16,430 are the best of deeds. 68 00:04:16,430 --> 00:04:19,430 A man stood up and said: 69 00:04:19,430 --> 00:04:21,430 "O Messenger of Allah," 70 00:04:21,430 --> 00:04:24,430 "Do you see that if I am killed in the path of Allah," 71 00:04:24,430 --> 00:04:27,459 "will my sins be expiated for me?" 72 00:04:27,459 --> 00:04:31,459 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said to him: 73 00:04:31,459 --> 00:04:33,459 "Yes," 74 00:04:33,459 --> 00:04:37,459 "if you are killed in the path of Allah while being patient and seeking reward," 75 00:04:37,459 --> 00:04:40,529 "advancing and not retreating." 76 00:04:40,529 --> 00:04:44,529 Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 77 00:04:44,529 --> 00:04:46,529 "What did you say?" 78 00:04:46,529 --> 00:04:47,529 He said: 79 00:04:47,529 --> 00:04:50,529 "Do you see that if I am killed in the path of Allah," 80 00:04:50,529 --> 00:04:53,529 "will my sins be expiated for me?" 81 00:04:53,529 --> 00:04:57,620 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 82 00:04:57,620 --> 00:04:59,620 "Yes," 83 00:04:59,620 --> 00:05:01,620 "while you are patient and seeking reward," 84 00:05:01,620 --> 00:05:03,620 "advancing and not retreating." 85 00:05:03,620 --> 00:05:05,620 "Except debt." 86 00:05:05,620 --> 00:05:09,620 "For Jibril, peace be upon him, told me that." 87 00:05:09,620 --> 00:05:11,819 Reported by Muslim. 88 00:05:11,819 --> 00:05:15,490 On the authority of Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 89 00:05:15,490 --> 00:05:17,490 A man asked: 90 00:05:17,490 --> 00:05:21,490 "Where will I be, O Messenger of Allah, if I am killed?" 91 00:05:21,490 --> 00:05:22,490 He said: 92 00:05:22,490 --> 00:05:24,490 "In Paradise." 93 00:05:24,490 --> 00:05:27,490 So he threw away some dates he had in his hand, 94 00:05:27,490 --> 00:05:30,490 then fought until he was killed. 95 00:05:30,490 --> 00:05:32,579 Reported by Muslim. 96 00:05:32,579 --> 00:05:36,129 On the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 97 00:05:36,129 --> 00:05:41,129 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and his Companions set out, 98 00:05:41,129 --> 00:05:44,129 until they reached Badr before the polytheists. 99 00:05:44,129 --> 00:05:46,129 The polytheists arrived, 100 00:05:46,129 --> 00:05:50,129 and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 101 00:05:50,129 --> 00:05:54,220 "Let none of you advance toward anything" 102 00:05:54,220 --> 00:05:57,220 "until I am in front of you." 103 00:05:57,220 --> 00:05:59,350 The polytheists drew near, 104 00:05:59,350 --> 00:06:03,350 and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 105 00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:08,350 "Rise to a Paradise whose width is the heavens and the earth." 106 00:06:08,350 --> 00:06:09,579 He said: 107 00:06:09,579 --> 00:06:14,579 ‘Umayr ibn al-Humam al-Ansari, may Allah be pleased with him, said: 108 00:06:14,579 --> 00:06:16,579 "O Messenger of Allah," 109 00:06:16,579 --> 00:06:19,579 “And vie one with another for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a paradise as wide as are the heavens and the earth, prepared for those who ward off (evil);” (3:133) 110 00:06:19,579 --> 00:06:21,610 He said, "Yes." 111 00:06:21,610 --> 00:06:22,639 He said: 112 00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:24,899 "Bakh, bakh!" [An expression of joy/amazement]. 113 00:06:24,899 --> 00:06:28,899 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, asked: 114 00:06:28,899 --> 00:06:32,300 "What prompted you to say 'bakh, bakh'?" 115 00:06:32,300 --> 00:06:36,430 He said, "No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah," 116 00:06:36,430 --> 00:06:40,459 "it is only the hope that I may be among its people." 117 00:06:40,459 --> 00:06:44,480 He said, "You are indeed among its people." 118 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,519 So he took some dates from his quiver, 119 00:06:47,519 --> 00:06:49,920 and began to eat them. 120 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,639 Then he said: 121 00:06:51,639 --> 00:06:56,279 "If I were to live until I finish these dates of mine," 122 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,860 "that would be a long life." 123 00:06:59,860 --> 00:07:03,019 So he threw away the dates he had with him, 124 00:07:03,019 --> 00:07:06,699 then fought them until he was killed. 125 00:07:06,699 --> 00:07:10,019 Reported by Muslim. 126 00:07:10,019 --> 00:07:13,970 The "qarn" is a quiver for arrows. 127 00:07:13,970 --> 00:07:15,449 "Bakh, bakh" 128 00:07:15,449 --> 00:07:21,790 is a word used to exalt and magnify a matter in goodness. 129 00:07:21,790 --> 00:07:24,310 From the benefits of the hadith: 130 00:07:24,310 --> 00:07:27,350 It is incumbent upon the leader of the Muslim army 131 00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:30,430 to seize vital positions 132 00:07:30,430 --> 00:07:34,870 to deny the enemy the ability to exploit and benefit from them. 133 00:07:34,870 --> 00:07:42,589 That is why the Muslims, led by the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, reached the water of Badr first, 134 00:07:42,589 --> 00:07:47,629 thus depriving the polytheists of an important element in the battle. 135 00:07:47,629 --> 00:07:51,509 The commander or leader should be at the front of the army 136 00:07:51,509 --> 00:07:56,000 to incite them to fight in the path of Allah. 137 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:01,360 It is recommended for the Imam or army commander to incite the soldier to fight, 138 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:06,689 and to encourage them to be courageous and seek martyrdom with sincerity. 139 00:08:06,689 --> 00:08:09,009 Whoever seeks martyrdom with sincerity, 140 00:08:09,009 --> 00:08:12,009 Allah will grant him the stations of the martyrs, 141 00:08:12,009 --> 00:08:15,370 either by being killed on the battlefield, 142 00:08:15,370 --> 00:08:21,000 or by Allah raising his rank in the Hereafter due to the sincerity of his intention. 143 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:27,709 The eagerness of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, for goodness and their racing toward it. 144 00:08:27,750 --> 00:08:31,100 On the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 145 00:08:31,100 --> 00:08:35,379 Some people came to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 146 00:08:35,379 --> 00:08:40,490 asking him to send with them men to teach them the Qur'an and the Sunnah. 147 00:08:40,490 --> 00:08:44,169 So he sent seventy men from the Ansar to them, 148 00:08:44,169 --> 00:08:46,730 who were called "the reciters" [al-Qurra']. 149 00:08:46,730 --> 00:08:49,090 Among them was my maternal uncle, Haram. 150 00:08:49,090 --> 00:08:51,169 They would recite the Qur'an, 151 00:08:51,169 --> 00:08:54,730 and study it together at night, learning. 152 00:08:54,730 --> 00:08:58,090 During the day, they would bring water, 153 00:08:58,090 --> 00:09:00,490 and place it in the mosque, 154 00:09:00,490 --> 00:09:03,250 and they would gather firewood and sell it, 155 00:09:03,250 --> 00:09:08,220 then buy food with it for the people of the Suffah and the poor. 156 00:09:08,220 --> 00:09:12,139 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, sent them, 157 00:09:12,139 --> 00:09:13,700 but [the enemy] intercepted them, 158 00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:17,539 and killed them before they reached the place. 159 00:09:17,539 --> 00:09:19,019 They said: 160 00:09:19,019 --> 00:09:22,100 "O Allah, convey to our Prophet on our behalf" 161 00:09:22,100 --> 00:09:24,379 "that we have met You," 162 00:09:24,419 --> 00:09:28,230 "and we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us." 163 00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:30,149 A man came to Haram, 164 00:09:30,149 --> 00:09:32,429 Anas said, from behind him, 165 00:09:32,429 --> 00:09:36,149 and stabbed him with a spear until it pierced through him. 166 00:09:36,149 --> 00:09:37,990 Haram said: 167 00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:40,940 "I have succeeded, by the Lord of the Ka'bah!" 168 00:09:40,940 --> 00:09:44,899 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 169 00:09:44,899 --> 00:09:47,779 "Your brothers have been killed," 170 00:09:47,779 --> 00:09:49,779 "and they said:" 171 00:09:49,779 --> 00:09:52,980 "O Allah, convey to our Prophet on our behalf" 172 00:09:53,019 --> 00:09:54,899 "that we have met You," 173 00:09:54,899 --> 00:09:58,750 "and we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us." 174 00:09:58,750 --> 00:10:00,590 Agreed upon. 175 00:10:00,590 --> 00:10:04,419 And this is the wording of Muslim. 176 00:10:04,419 --> 00:10:07,009 From the benefits of the hadith: 177 00:10:07,009 --> 00:10:11,220 The permissibility of reciting the Qur'an in a study circle. 178 00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:16,179 It is recommended for people of knowledge to study it among themselves. 179 00:10:16,179 --> 00:10:18,980 The Imam should send scholars 180 00:10:18,980 --> 00:10:22,679 to teach faith to those who have embraced Islam. 181 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:23,960 The first of knowledge 182 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,899 is the recitation of the Qur'an. 183 00:10:26,899 --> 00:10:28,700 The bearers of the Qur'an 184 00:10:28,700 --> 00:10:31,460 recite it, study it, 185 00:10:31,460 --> 00:10:35,559 and act upon it just as they teach it. 186 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,440 Striving in worship 187 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:42,460 does not prevent one from working to sustain oneself and support one's back. 188 00:10:42,460 --> 00:10:50,409 Affirming the attributes of hearing, seeing, pleasure, and others for
