demonstrates the keenness of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 44 00:01:50,340 --> 00:01:52,739 to perform the funeral prayer over his Companions, 45 00:01:52,739 --> 00:01:55,379 as his prayer was a mercy and blessing for them. 46 00:01:55,379 --> 00:02:01,540 It also shows the deep love of the Companions for the Prophet, peace be upon him. 47 00:02:01,540 --> 00:02:06,260 It indicates the importance of attending to children and training them in the rites of Islam, 48 00:02:06,260 --> 00:02:10,259 and having them attend congregations so they become accustomed to them, 49 00:02:10,259 --> 00:02:14,560 making it a habitual practice for them. 50 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,199 On the authority of Abu Sa'id, who said: 51 00:02:17,199 --> 00:02:22,349 I testify that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 52 00:02:22,349 --> 00:02:26,909 "Taking a bath on Friday is obligatory upon every person who has reached puberty, 53 00:02:26,909 -->

person who has reached puberty" (muhtalim) 59 00:02:42,750 --> 00:02:44,110 means one who has reached full maturity, 60 00:02:44,110 --> 00:02:47,219 as experiencing wet dreams entails reaching puberty. 61 00:02:47,219 --> 00:02:48,659 "Using the tooth-stick" (an yastanna) 62 00:02:48,659 --> 00:02:51,139 means employing the siwak. 63 00:02:51,139 --> 00:02:53,139 "Applying perfume" (an

also implies that the Friday prayer is not obligatory upon a child. 69 00:03:14,050 --> 00:03:19,520 Chapter: Women Going out to the Mosques at Night and in the Darkness of Dawn. 70 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,759 On the authority of Ibn 'Umar, who said: 71 00:03:21,759 --> 00:03:28,620 A wife of 'Umar used to attend the Dawn and Night prayers in congregation at the mosque. 72 00:03:28,620 --> 00:03:30,300 It was said to her, 73 00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:31,740 "Why do you go out 74 00:03:31,740 --> 00:03:36,259 when you know that 'Umar dislikes that and feels protective jealousy?" 75 00:03:36,259 --> 00:03:37,460 She said, 76 00:03:37,460 --> 00:03:40,340 "What prevents him from forbidding me?" 77 00:03:40,340 --> 00:03:41,460 He replied, 78 00:03:41,460 --> 00:03:46,020 "What prevents him is the statement of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him: 79 00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:50,300 'Do not prevent the female servants of Allah from the mosques of Allah.'" 80 00:03:50,300 --> 00:03:51,939 In another narration: 81 00:03:51,939 --> 00:03:56,020 "If your women ask your permission at night to go to the mosque, 82 00:03:56,020 --> 00:03:58,669 give them permission." 83 00:03:58,669 --> 00:04:02,289 Commentary on the Hadith: 84 00:04:02,370 --> 00:04:06,240 "Al-Ghalas" refers to the remaining darkness at the end of the night. 85 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:11,870 The wife of 'Umar was 'Atikah bint Zayd ibn 'Amr ibn Nufayl. 86 00:04:11,870 --> 00:04:15,870 "Tash-had" means she attends the congregation, 87 00:04:15,870 --> 00:04:18,699 that is, she attends the congregational prayer. 88 00:04:18,699 --> 00:04:20,379 "It was said to her": 89 00:04:20,379 --> 00:04:25,180 It is said that the one who addressed her was 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him. 90 00:04:25,180 --> 00:04:26,540 "And feels protective jealousy" (yaghar): 91 00:04:26,540 --> 00:04:31,500 Protective jealousy (ghayrah) is a man's safeguarding of his womenfolk against anything shameful, 92 00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:35,579 referring here to a man's protective sense toward his female dependents. 93 00:04:35,579 --> 00:04:39,839 "The female servants of Allah" means the believing women. 94 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,220 Key takeaways from the hadith: 95 00:04:43,220 --> 00:04:45,300 It is derived from the hadith that 96 00:04:45,300 --> 00:04:48,740 protective jealousy in its proper place is praiseworthy, 97 00:04:48,740 --> 00:04:53,379 and that the command of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, must be prioritized 98 00:04:53,379 --> 00:04:57,060 over personal inclinations, reasoning, and desires. 99 00:04:57,060 --> 00:05:01,220 The hadith implies that a woman's home is better for her. 100 00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:05,139 It highlights a great virtue of 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, 101 00:05:05,139 --> 00:05:10,980 namely his total submission to the command of Allah Almighty and the command of His Messenger, peace be upon him, 102 00:05:10,980 --> 00:05:15,970 even if it runs contrary to his personal inclinations. 103 00:05:15,970 --> 00:05:17,810 On the authority of Yahya ibn Sa'id, 104 00:05:17,810 --> 00:05:19,089 from 'Amrah, 105 00:05:19,089 --> 00:05:22,769 from 'A'ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 106 00:05:22,769 --> 00:05:28,449 "Had the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) witnessed what women have introduced, 107 00:05:28,529 --> 00:05:33,699 he would have forbidden them from the mosques just as the women of the Children of Israel were forbidden." 108 00:05:33,699 --> 00:05:35,300 I asked 'Amrah, 109 00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:36,819 "Were they forbidden?" 110 00:05:36,819 --> 00:05:39,310 She said, "Yes." 111 00:05:39,310 --> 00:05:42,540 Commentary on the Hadith: 112 00:05:42,540 --> 00:05:44,620 "What women have introduced" 113 00:05:44,620 --> 00:05:49,089 refers to ostentatious adornment, perfume, fine clothing, and the like. 114 00:05:49,089 --> 00:05:50,529 "He would have forbidden them" 115 00:05:50,529 --> 00:05:53,250 means from going out to the mosques. 116 00:05:53,250 --> 00:05:56,529 "Just as the women of the Children of Israel were forbidden": 117 00:05:56,529 --> 00:05:59,810 It is possible that prohibition was their original religious law, 118 00:05:59,810 --> 00:06:04,319 or that they were prohibited after it had previously been permissible. 119 00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:07,860 Key takeaways from the hadith: 120 00:06:07,860 --> 00:06:12,660 The hadith demonstrates that warding off harm takes precedence over procuring benefits. 121 00:06:12,660 --> 00:06:18,100 It provides evidence for the obligation of blocking the means that lead to temptation and tribulation. 122 00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:21,860 It shows that the norm for a woman is modesty and concealment, 123 00:06:21,860 --> 00:06:28,480 even in earlier religious laws. 124 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,819 The Book of Friday Prayer. 125 00:06:32,819 --> 00:06:35,779 Chapter: The Virtue of Bathing on Friday, 126 00:06:35,779 --> 00:06:38,740 and Whether Friday Attendance Is Obligatory upon Children 127 00:06:38,740 --> 00:06:41,389 or Women. 128 00:06:41,389 --> 00:06:45,550 On the authority of 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said: 129 00:06:45,550 --> 00:06:50,670 I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) delivering a sermon from the pulpit, 130 00:06:50,670 --> 00:06:52,110 saying: 131 00:06:52,110 --> 00:06:56,300 "Whoever comes to the Friday prayer should take a bath." 132 00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:59,420 And on the authority of Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, 133 00:06:59,500 --> 00:07:04,939 that while 'Umar ibn al-Khattab was standing delivering the Friday sermon, 134 00:07:04,939 --> 00:07:12,300 a man from the early Emigrants among the Companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him, entered. 135 00:07:12,300 --> 00:07:14,220 'Umar called out to him, 136 00:07:14,220 --> 00:07:16,699 "What hour is this?!" 137 00:07:16,699 --> 00:07:17,819 The man replied, 138 00:07:17,819 --> 00:07:19,500 "I was busy, 139 00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:23,819 and did not return to my family until I heard the call to prayer, 140 00:07:23,819 --> 00:07:26,620 so I did no more than perform ablution." 141 00:07:26,620 --> 00:07:27,899 'Umar said, 142 00:07:27,899 --> 00:07:29,899 "Only ablution, as well?! 143 00:07:29,899 --> 00:07:36,370 When you well know that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, used to command bathing!" 144 00:07:36,370 --> 00:07:37,889 In another narration: 145 00:07:37,889 --> 00:07:42,370 "Did you not hear that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: 146 00:07:42,370 --> 00:07:47,620 'When one of you goes to the Friday prayer, let him take a bath'?" 147 00:07:47,620 --> 00:07:50,860 Commentary on the Hadith: 148 00:07:50,860 --> 00:07:54,060 "Whether Friday attendance is obligatory upon children": 149 00:07:54,060 --> 00:07:56,579 "Shuhud" means attending. 150 00:07:56,660 --> 00:08:01,139 The man was 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, may Allah be pleased with him. 151 00:08:01,139 --> 00:08:03,620 "The early Emigrants" 152

feminine to match "sa'ah" (hour). 157 00:08:18,529 --> 00:08:20,050 "I was busy" 158 00:08:20,050 --> 00:08:21,810 means in the marketplace. 159 00:08:21,810 --> 00:08:24,129 "I did not return to my family" 160 00:08:24,129 --> 00:08:26,290 means I did not go back home to them 161 00:08:26,290 --> 00:08:28,529 "until I heard the call to prayer," 162 00:08:28,529 --> 00:08:30,209 meaning the adhan. 163 00:08:30,209 --> 00:08:32,610 "I did no more than perform ablution" 164 00:08:32,610 --> 00:08:34,289 means: I did not take a bath 165 00:08:34,289 --> 00:08:36,700 and contented myself with ablution alone. 166 00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:38,700 "Only ablution, as well?!" 167 00:08:38,700 --> 00:08:41,259 is an interrogative expression of disapproval. 168 00:08:41,259 --> 00:08:44,110 "Raha" means went. 169 00:08:44,110 --> 00:08:47,649 Key takeaways from the hadith: 170 00:08:47,649 --> 00:08:53,090 The hadith shows the permissibility of engaging in work and business on Friday prior to the call to prayer. 171 00:08:53,169 --> 00:08:57,649 It highlights the merit of arriving early for the Friday prayer. 172 00:08:57,649 --> 00:09:02,690 It establishes the legitimacy of the preacher drawing a worshiper's attention to virtuous deeds. 173 00:09:02,690 --> 00:09:10,480 It demonstrates that pointing out a mistake accompanied by evidence is more impactful on the soul. 174 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,259 Chapter: The Virtue of Friday. 175 00:09:13,259 --> 00:09:16,139 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, 176 00:09:16,139 --> 00:09:20,379 that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 177 00:09:20,379 --> 00:09:24,059 "Whoever takes a bath on Friday like the bath for major ritual impurity, 178 00:09:24,059 --> 00:09:25,419 then sets out in the earliest hour, 179 00:09:25,419 --> 00:09:28,299 it is as if he sacrificed a camel; 180 00:09:28,299 --> 00:09:31,019 and whoever sets out in the second hour, 181 00:09:31,019 --> 00:09:34,019 it is as if he sacrificed a cow; 182 00:09:34,019 --> 00:09:36,820 and whoever sets out in the third hour, 183 00:09:36,820 --> 00:09:40,259 it is as if he sacrificed a

sets out in the fifth hour, 187 00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:51,789 it is as if he offered an egg. 188 00:09:51,789 --> 00:09:54,029 Then, when the Imam comes out, 189 00:09:54,029 --> 00:09:57,230 the angels arrive to listen to the remembrance." 190 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,480 Commentary on the Hadith: 191 00:10:01,730 --> 00:10:02,529 "Then sets out" (thumma raha) 192 00:10:03,009 --> 00:10:04,769 means goes in the early part of the day. 193 00:10:05,580 --> 00:10:07,580 "It is as if he sacrificed a camel" (badanah) 194 00:10:08,139 --> 00:10:12,059 means he gave a camel in charity seeking closeness to Allah Almighty. 195 00:10:13,059 --> 00:10:14,419 "In the second hour": 196 00:10:15,139 --> 00:10:17,860 The hours begin from the start of the day. 197 00:10:18,769 --> 00:10:21,330 "It is as if he sacrificed a horned ram (aqran)": 198 00:10:21,970 --> 00:10:23,250 It was described as horned 199 00:10:23,570 --> 00:10:25,649 Because it is the most complete and excellent form of it. 200 00:10:26,580 --> 00:10:28,100 "And when the imam comes out," 201 00:10:28,580 --> 00:10:30,340 meaning, when he sits upon the pulpit, 202 00:10:31,059 --> 00:10:32,419 "they listen to the remembrance," 203 00:10:32,980 --> 00:10:33,940 meaning, the sermon. 204 00:10:34,980 --> 00:10:37,220 Among the lessons of the hadith: 205 00:10:38,509 --> 00:10:40,029 It is derived from the hadith 206 00:10:40,509 --> 00:10:42,830 that performing ghusl on Friday is recommended; 207 00:10:43,470 --> 00:10:46,429 it clarifies the virtue of arriving early for Friday prayer; 208 00:10:46,990 --> 00:10:50,909 that people's ranks in virtue correspond to their deeds; 209 00:10:51,779 --> 00:10:55,700 that the term charity (sadaqah) applies to both little and much; 210 00:10:56,419 --> 00:11:00,500 and that the angels attend the sermon and the prayer. 211 00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:05,090 Chapter: Applying Oil for Friday Prayer. 212 00:11:06,590 --> 00:11:08,750 On the authority of Salman al-Farsi, who said 213 00:11:09,470 --> 00:11:12,110 that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 214 00:11:12,909 --> 00:11:15,389 "No man bathes on Friday, 215 00:11:15,950 --> 00:11:18,509 purifies himself as much as he can, 216 00:11:19,070 --> 00:11:20,669 oils his hair, 217 00:11:21,230 --> 00:11:23,230 or applies perfume from his house, 218 00:11:24,029 --> 00:11:27,070 then goes out and does not separate between two people, 219 00:11:27,629 --> 00:11:29,629 then prays whatever is decreed for him, 220 00:11:30,429 --> 00:11:33,149 then listens attentively when the imam speaks, 221 00:11:33,789 --> 00:11:38,350 but that he is forgiven for whatever occurred between it and the next Friday." 222 00:11:39,620 --> 00:11:41,620 Commentary on the hadith: 223 00:11:42,909 --> 00:11:45,230 "Purifies himself as much as he can" — 224 00:11:45,870 --> 00:11:46,669 what is meant 225 00:11:46,990 --> 00:11:50,190 is going to great lengths in cleansing the body and clothes. 226 00:11:50,940 --> 00:11:52,460 "Oils his hair," 227 00:11:53,019 --> 00:11:55,019 meaning he touches and rubs oil into it. 228 00:11:55,820 --> 00:11:57,100 "From the perfume of his house," 229 00:11:57,659 --> 00:11:59,659 meaning from the perfume stored in his home, 230 00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:02,220 and it is said: from his wife's perfume. 231 00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:05,039 "And does not separate between two people," 232 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,840 meaning he does not step over the necks of people, 233 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,360 nor does he squeeze between two men to push himself between them. 234 00:12:12,220 --> 00:12:13,179 "Then listens attentively," 235 00:12:13,580 --> 00:12:14,940 meaning he remains silent. 236 00:12:16,049 --> 00:12:18,289 Among the lessons of the hadith: 237 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,120 It is derived from the hadith 238 00:12:21,759 --> 00:12:23,759 that performing ghusl on Friday is recommended; 239 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,559 that cleaning one's garments is recommended; 240 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,600 that stepping over people on Friday is disliked; 241 00:12:30,429 --> 00:12:34,750 that it is permissible to offer as many voluntary prayers as one wishes before the Friday prayer; 242 00:12:35,549 --> 00:12:38,909 that listening attentively is obligatory due to the explicit command for it; 243 00:12:39,789 --> 00:12:42,590 that it is from the Sunnah to acquire perfume for oneself 244 00:12:43,149 --> 00:12:45,470 and to make its use a habit; 245 00:12:46,370 --> 00:12:50,610 and that attending Friday prayer fulfilling the conditions mentioned in the narration 246 00:12:50,929 --> 00:12:52,929 is a cause for forgiveness. 247 00:12:55,340 --> 00:12:57,340 On the authority of Tawus, who said: 248 00:12:57,659 --> 00:12:59,179 I said to Ibn Abbas: 249 00:12:59,740 --> 00:13:03,659 "They mentioned that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 250 00:13:04,220 --> 00:13:07,899 'Perform ghusl on Friday and wash your heads, 251 00:13:08,299 --> 00:13:10,299 even if you are not in a state of ritual impurity (janabah), 252 00:13:11,019 --> 00:13:13,019 and apply perfume.'" 253 00:13:13,730 --> 00:13:15,250 Ibn Abbas said: 254 00:13:15,649 --> 00:13:17,649 "As for ghusl, yes; 255 00:13:18,129 --> 00:13:20,850 but as for perfume, I do not know." 256 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Commentary on the hadith: 257 00:13:25,169 --> 00:13:25,970 "They mentioned" — 258 00:13:26,450 --> 00:13:29,730 what is apparent is that this refers to Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him). 259 00:13:30,529 --> 00:13:33,409 "And wash your heads" is for emphasis. 260 00:13:34,129 --> 00:13:35,649 "Apply perfume," 261 00:13:36,129 --> 00:13:37,649 meaning use perfume. 262 00:13:38,799 --> 00:13:40,799 Among the lessons of the hadith: 263 00:13:42,159 --> 00:13:43,679 It is derived from the hadith 264 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,480 that performing ghusl and being meticulous in cleansing on Friday is recommended; 265 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,600 and that acquiring perfume is recommended. 266 00:13:54,429 --> 00:13:56,909 Chapter: Wearing the Best Clothes One Can Find. 267 00:13:58,460 --> 00:14:00,460 On the authority of Abdullah Ibn Umar, 268 00:14:00,860 --> 00:14:06,059 that Umar Ibn al-Khattab saw a silk-striped suit (hullat sayra') near the door of the mosque. 269 00:14:06,899 --> 00:14:07,860 In one narration: 270 00:14:08,419 --> 00:14:12,659 Umar took a cloak of brocade being sold in the market. 271 00:14:13,379 --> 00:14:14,419 And in another narration: 272 00:14:14,820 --> 00:14:16,179 a silk suit. 273 00:14:17,019 --> 00:14:17,899 He said: 274 00:14:18,220 --> 00:14:19,500 "O Messenger of Allah, 275 00:14:19,899 --> 00:14:21,419 would that you bought this 276 00:14:21,740 --> 00:14:24,779 and wore it on Friday and for the delegations." 277 00:14:25,629 --> 00:14:26,509 In one narration: 278 00:14:26,990 --> 00:14:29,710 "Adorn yourself with it for Eid and for the delegations 279 00:14:30,350 --> 00:14:31,870 when they come to you." 280 00:14:32,669 --> 00:14:35,870 The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 281 00:14:36,590 --> 00:14:40,909 "Only he wears this who has no share of good in the Hereafter." 282 00:14:41,820 --> 00:14:46,379 Later, some suits of that kind were brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), 283 00:14:47,019 --> 00:14:51,340 and he gave Umar Ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) a suit from them. 284 00:14:52,190 --> 00:14:52,990 In one narration: 285 00:14:53,470 --> 00:14:55,070 a brocade cloak. 286 00:14:55,789 --> 00:14:56,909 Umar said: 287 00:14:57,309 --> 00:14:58,590 "O Messenger of Allah, 288 00:14:59,070 --> 00:15:03,549 you give it to me to wear when you said what you said regarding the suit of Utarid?" 289 00:15:04,269 --> 00:15:07,389 The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 290 00:15:07,950 --> 00:15:10,990 "I did not give it to you for you to wear it." 291 00:15:11,700 --> 00:15:12,580 In one narration: 292 00:15:13,059 --> 00:15:16,179 "You may sell it or fulfill your need with it." 293 00:15:16,820 --> 00:15:17,860 And in another narration: 294 00:15:18,340 --> 00:15:19,700 "or give it to someone to wear." 295 00:15:20,590 --> 00:15:26,429 So Umar Ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) gave it to a polytheist brother of his in Mecca. 296 00:15:27,730 --> 00:15:29,730 Commentary on the hadith: 297 00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:31,600 "Suit" (hullah): 298 00:15:32,159 --> 00:15:33,600 meaning a waist-wrapper (izar) and an upper cloak (rida'); 299 00:15:34,159 --> 00:15:36,399 a hullah consists of two garments. 300 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:37,919 "Sayra'": 301 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,039 meaning silk, 302 00:15:39,519 --> 00:15:40,799 and other meanings have been stated. 303 00:15:41,789 --> 00:15:42,509 "And for the delegations" (wa lil-wafd): 304 00:15:43,149 --> 00:15:44,830 "wafd" is the plural of "wafid," 305 00:15:45,309 --> 00:15:49,549 which refers to an emissary, a visitor, or one seeking a gift. 306 00:15:50,450 --> 00:15:51,649 "Has no share" (la khalaqa lahu): 307 00:15:52,049 --> 00:15:55,570 meaning he has no portion or share of goodness and righteousness. 308 00:15:56,559 --> 00:15:57,759 "The suit of Utarid": 309 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,720 he is Utarid Ibn Hajib Ibn Zurarah; 310 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,120 he used to sell these suits, 311 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:04,559 so it was attributed to him. 312 00:16:05,470 --> 00:16:07,629 "A polytheist brother of his in Mecca": 313 00:16:08,190 --> 00:16:09,710 he was Uthman Ibn Hakim, 314 00:16:10,190 --> 00:16:12,190 and there is disagreement regarding his acceptance of Islam. 315 00:16:13,309 --> 00:16:15,470 Among the lessons of the hadith: 316 00:16:16,779 --> 00:16:18,220 It is derived from the hadith 317 00:16:18,860 --> 00:16:21,259 that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) loved 318 00:16:21,580 --> 00:16:23,100 beautifying oneself in general; 319 00:16:23,820 --> 00:16:28,220 that buying and selling near the door of the mosque is permissible outside the times of prohibition; 320 00:16:29,059 --> 00:16:34,019 that it is permissible for the righteous and virtuous to engage directly in buying and selling; 321 00:16:34,820 --> 00:16:38,899 that it is permissible to buy and sell what one is not permitted to wear; 322 00:16:39,539 --> 00:16:41,940 that it is permissible to gift it to someone who may wear it; 323 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:48,559 it demonstrates the Prophet's (peace be upon him) generosity and openhandedness; 324 00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:52,000 and it shows maintaining ties with brothers and companions through gifts. 325 00:16:54,700 --> 00:16:56,860 Chapter: Using the Siwak on Friday. 326 00:16:58,289 --> 00:17:00,610 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), 327 00:17:01,169 --> 00:17:04,849 that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 328 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,359 "Were it not that I would cause hardship for my Ummah — or for the people — 329 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,960 I would have commanded them to use the siwak with every prayer." 330 00:17:14,019 --> 00:17:15,220 And on the authority of Anas, who said: 331 00:17:16,019 --> 00:17:18,980 The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 332 00:17:19,700 --> 00:17:21,940 "I have emphasized the use of the siwak to you repeatedly." 333 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,119 Commentary on the hadith: 334 00:17:26,430 --> 00:17:28,589 "Were it not that I would cause hardship for my Ummah": 335 00:17:29,390 --> 00:17:31,789 the obligation was withheld because hardship was established. 336 00:17:32,750 --> 00:17:34,589 "I have emphasized the use of the siwak to you repeatedly," 337 00:17:35,309 --> 00:17:37,869 meaning I have urged you intensely regarding the matter of the siwak. 338 00:17:38,990 --> 00:17:41,150 Among the lessons of the hadith: 339 00:17:42,369 --> 00:17:43,730 It is derived from the hadith 340 00:17:44,210 --> 00:17:47,410 that using the siwak when standing for prayer is recommended, 341 00:17:47,890 --> 00:17:50,930 because it is a state of drawing near to Allah Almighty, 342 00:17:51,490 --> 00:17:54,769 which necessitates that it be a state of perfection and cleanliness, 343 00:17:54,769 --> 00:17:56,849 manifesting the honor of the act of worship; 344 00:17:57,599 --> 00:18:03,119 it demonstrates the Prophet's (peace be upon him) complete compassion for his Ummah; 345 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,480 and that hardship brings about ease. 346 00:18:09,230 --> 00:18:11,950 Chapter: One Who Uses Another Person's Siwak. 347 00:18:13,230 --> 00:18:14,990 On the authority of Aisha, who said: 348 00:18:15,630 --> 00:18:17,630 "It was among the blessings of Allah upon me 349 00:18:18,190 --> 00:18:21,150 that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) 350 00:18:21,150 --> 00:18:23,950 passed away in my house, on my turn, 351 00:18:24,769 --> 00:18:25,730 — in one narration: 352 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,480 and one of us used to recite protective prayers for him when he was ill, 353 00:18:31,150 --> 00:18:32,670 so I went to recite them for him — 354 00:18:33,619 --> 00:18:35,619 and between my chest and my neck. 355 00:18:36,509 --> 00:18:37,390 In one narration: 356 00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:40,509 between my collarbone and my chin. 357 00:18:41,230 --> 00:18:44,430 So I never dislike the severity of death for anyone 358 00:18:44,589 --> 00:18:47,630 after the Prophet (peace be upon him). 359 00:18:48,940 --> 00:18:53,019 And that Allah united my saliva with his saliva at his death: 360 00:18:53,869 --> 00:18:55,869 Abd al-Rahman entered upon me 361 00:18:56,029 --> 00:18:57,309 holding a siwak, 362 00:18:57,950 --> 00:19:02,029 while I was supporting the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). 363 00:19:02,750 --> 00:19:04,509 I saw him looking at it, 364 00:19:05,069 --> 00:19:07,549 and I knew that he loved the siwak, 365 00:19:08,369 --> 00:19:09,089 so I said: 366 00:19:09,650 --> 00:19:10,769 'Shall I take it for you?' 367 00:19:11,539 --> 00:19:13,940 He nodded his head in assent. 368 00:19:14,660 --> 00:19:15,700 So I took it, 369 00:19:16,259 --> 00:19:17,460 but it was too hard for him. 370 00:19:18,019 --> 00:19:18,740 I said: 371 00:19:19,220 --> 00:19:20,420 'Shall I soften it for you?' 372 00:19:21,140 --> 00:19:23,460 He nodded his head in assent. 373 00:19:24,259 --> 00:19:25,220 So I softened it, 374 00:19:25,940 --> 00:19:26,819 and he brushed with it. 375 00:19:27,700 --> 00:19:28,500 In one narration: 376 00:19:29,220 --> 00:19:30,099 So I bit off its end, 377 00:19:30,660 --> 00:19:32,579 shook it, and prepared it, 378 00:19:33,220 --> 00:19:36,980 then handed it to the Prophet (peace be upon him), 379 00:19:37,539 --> 00:19:38,579 and he brushed with it. 380 00:19:39,299 --> 00:19:42,740 I never saw the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) 381 00:19:42,740 --> 00:19:45,700 brush his teeth better than that. 382 00:19:46,609 --> 00:19:50,609 There was in

00:20:27,460 --> 00:20:28,180 He would ask: 398 00:20:28,740 --> 00:20:31,700 "Where am I tomorrow?" 399 00:20:32,259 --> 00:20:35,220 Meaning he desired the day assigned to 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). 400 00:20:35,859 --> 00:20:38,980 So his wives granted him permission to stay wherever he wished, 401 00:20:39,619 --> 00:20:42,819 and he stayed at the house of 'A'ishah (may Allah

upon him) cleaned his teeth with it. 407 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:00,960 *Haqinati* 408 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,559 refers to the pit between the collarbone and the neck ligament, 409 00:21:04,960 -->

chin. 412 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:18,160 The summary is that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed away with his head resting between her chin and chest. 413 00:21:18,910 --> 00:21:19,869 "So she softened it," 414 00:21:20,349 --> 00:21:24,670 meaning she severed and bit it with the tips of her teeth until it became soft. 415 00:21:25,390 --> 00:21:26,190 "So he passed it over his teeth," 416 00:21:26,589 --> 00:21:27,710 meaning he brushed his teeth with it. 417 00:21:28,460 --> 00:21:29,259 *Rakwah* 418 00:21:29,579 --> 00:21:30,299 means a vessel, 419 00:21:31,099

00:21:47,569 A clarification of the merit of 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), 426 00:21:48,049 --> 00:21:51,970 and her keen understanding of the Prophet (peace be upon him) even through a mere gesture. 427 00:21:52,690 --> 00:21:56,849 It indicates the recommendation for a wife to fulfill the desire of her sick husband. 428 00:21:57,599 --> 00:22:00,960 It shows the permissibility of a brother visiting his sister's house, 429 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,240 and the permissibility of a woman reciting incantations (*ruqyah*) over her husband, 430 00:22:04,559 --> 00:22:07,279 as well as seeking protection for him through supplication when he is ill. 431 00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:11,630 The hadith serves as evidence for the purity of human saliva. 432 00:22:12,109 --> 00:22:16,509 It provides guidance on preparing, adjusting, and softening the miswak for use. 433 00:22:17,150 --> 00:22:20,430 It emphasizes the sunnah of using the miswak. 434 00:22:20,990 --> 00:22:25,069 It

00:23:08,799 The wisdom behind this 446 00:23:09,039 --> 00:23:13,359 is the allusion to what these two surahs contain regarding the creation of Adam, 447 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,680 the events of the Day of Resurrection, 448 00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:18,240 and the fact that it will occur on a Friday. 449 00:23:19,150 --> 00:23:21,309 Benefits derived from the hadith: 450 00:23:22,690 -->
