The intended meaning

00:00:37.070 --> 00:00:40.590

00:01:38.189 --> 00:01:40.670
As is charging a fee for mating.

00:01:40.670 --> 00:01:47.540

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave Khaybar to the Jews

00:02:01.579 --> 00:02:04.459
On the condition that they work it and cultivate it,

00:02:04.459 --> 00:02:07.700

00:02:09.060 --> 00:02:11.460
Of fruit or crops.

00:02:11.460 --> 00:02:13.780
And that Ibn 'Umar reported

00:02:13.780 --> 00:02:18.129
That farms used to be leased for a portion of the yield.

00:02:18.129 --> 00:02:19.650

00:02:29.810 --> 00:02:31.409
And I went with him.

He asked him,

00:02:32.770 --> 00:02:34.129

You know that we used to lease our farms during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)

00:02:47.969 --> 00:02:49.889
For what was produced on the four [irrigation channels],

So if one of you is referred to a solvent person,

00:04:03.379 --> 00:04:05.860
Let him accept the transfer."

00:05:02.339 --> 00:05:04.370
"Pray over him."

00:05:04.370 --> 00:05:05.649

The legitimacy of guaranteeing a debt for the deceased.

00:06:34.990 --> 00:06:41.389
It also shows that guaranteeing a debt for the deceased clears his liability if the amount is known.

00:06:41.389 --> 00:06:44.189
It contains a warning against the consequences of debt,

00:06:44.189 --> 00:06:46.189
And a rebuke against procrastination.

00:06:46.189 --> 00:06:50.509

﴾And to those whom your oaths have bound, give them their share﴿

00:07:11.170 --> 00:07:15.040
From Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both):

00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.240
﴾And to everyone We have appointed heirs﴿

00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:20.399

﴾And to those whom your oaths have bound﴿

00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:24.720

When the Muhajirun arrived in Medina,

00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:32.160
The Muhajir would inherit from the Ansari to the exclusion of his own blood relatives,

00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:37.519
Because of the brotherhood the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) established between them.

00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:39.279
When it was revealed:

00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:42.079
﴾And to everyone We have appointed heirs﴿

00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:43.439

00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:47.839
﴾And to those whom your oaths have bound﴿

00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:51.120
Except for support, assistance, and advice.

00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:53.120
Inheritance has been removed,

00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:55.660

Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) interpreted it as heirs.

00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.240

All of this is among the blessings of Allah upon His servants,

00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:33.860
As allies would cooperate in ways that some could not manage alone.

00:08:33.860 --> 00:08:35.059
"His relatives" (Rahm):

00:08:35.059 --> 00:08:38.450

00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:05.419
It also shows the recommendation of making a bequest to a non-heir.

00:09:05.419 --> 00:09:09.980
It demonstrates the virtue of brotherhood in the religion of Allah the Almighty,

00:09:10.059 --> 00:09:14.059
And the virtue of cooperation in righteousness and piety.

00:09:14.059 --> 00:09:20.100
It also shows the obligation to support a Muslim and offer him sincere advice.

00:09:20.100 --> 00:09:22.259

00:09:22.259 --> 00:09:25.700

00:09:30.419 --> 00:09:32.899
'There is no confederacy in Islam'?"

00:09:32.899 --> 00:09:34.259
He replied,

00:09:34.259 --> 00:09:41.649
"The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, established a confederacy between the Quraysh and the Ansar in my house."

00:09:41.730 --> 00:09:44.929
Commentary on the hadith:

00:09:44.929 --> 00:09:48.620
"Has it reached you" means: Do you have knowledge of this?

00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:50.059
"No confederacy":

00:09:50.059 --> 00:09:54.669
A confederacy is a pact made between two or more parties.

00:09:54.669 --> 00:09:58.750
"Established a confederacy" means he created a bond of brotherhood between them.

00:09:58.750 --> 00:10:02.220
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:10:02.220 --> 00:10:04.220
It is derived from the hadith

00:10:04.220 --> 00:10:08.879
that Islam abolished every confederacy that contradicted its teachings.

00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:14.799
It also shows that brotherhood and confederacy in Islam are based on obedience to Allah the Almighty,

00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:16.480
mutual support in the religion,

00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:20.559
cooperation in righteousness and piety, and the establishment of truth.

00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:25.940
All of this remains valid and has not been abrogated.

00:10:25.940 --> 00:10:32.220
Chapter: Whoever guarantees a debt for a deceased person has no right to retract it.

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:35.419
Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported:

00:10:35.419 --> 00:10:39.179
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said,

00:10:39.259 --> 00:10:42.139
"If the wealth from Bahrain had come to me,

00:10:42.139 --> 00:10:47.039
I would have given you this, and this, and this."

00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:52.080
It did not arrive until the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, passed away.

00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.799
When the wealth from Bahrain arrived,

00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.320
Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, ordered a herald to announce:

00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:04.159
"Whoever is owed a debt by the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, or was promised something,

00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:05.919
let him come to us."

00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.080
So I went to him and said,

00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:11.279
"The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.679
promised me such and such."

00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.350
He scooped up a handful for me three times.

00:11:16.350 --> 00:11:18.029
And he said once,

00:11:18.029 --> 00:11:20.750
"I came to Abu Bakr and asked him,

00:11:20.750 --> 00:11:22.509
but he did not give me anything.

00:11:22.509 --> 00:11:25.549
Then I came to him, and he did not give me anything.

00:11:25.549 --> 00:11:27.789
Then I came to him a third time,

00:11:27.789 --> 00:11:28.990
and I said,

00:11:28.990 --> 00:11:31.470
'I asked you, and you did not give me anything.

00:11:31.470 --> 00:11:34.350
Then I asked you, and you did not give me anything.

00:11:34.350 --> 00:11:37.549
Then I asked you, and you did not give me anything.

00:11:37.549 --> 00:11:39.549
Either you give me,

00:11:39.549 --> 00:11:42.429
or you are being stingy with me.'"

00:11:42.429 --> 00:11:43.470
He said,

00:11:43.470 --> 00:11:46.059
"I said, 'You are being stingy with me.'"

00:11:46.059 --> 00:11:47.500
In one narration:

00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:50.539
"And what disease is more severe than stinginess?"

00:11:50.539 --> 00:11:52.929
He said this three times.

00:11:52.929 --> 00:11:54.850
"I did not withhold from you at any time

00:11:54.850 --> 00:11:58.379
except that I intended to give you."

00:11:58.379 --> 00:12:00.539
Jabir also reported:

00:12:00.539 --> 00:12:03.340
He scooped up a handful for me and said,

00:12:03.340 --> 00:12:04.700
"Count it."

00:12:04.700 --> 00:12:07.220
I found it to be five hundred.

00:12:08.019 --> 00:12:10.879
"Take twice as much."

00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:12.399
In one narration:

00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.799
"He counted five hundred into my hand,

00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:16.399
then five hundred,

00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:19.279
then five hundred."

00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.740
Commentary on the hadith:

00:12:22.740 --> 00:12:24.340
"Wealth from Bahrain":

00:12:24.340 --> 00:12:26.259
Meaning the jizya wealth.

00:12:26.259 --> 00:12:31.379
The governor of Bahrain appointed by the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:12:31.379 --> 00:12:35.299
was al-'Ala' ibn al-Hadrami, may Allah be pleased with him.

00:12:35.379 --> 00:12:39.460
"I would have given you this, and this, and this":

00:12:39.460 --> 00:12:42.740
Meaning he filled his palms three times.

00:12:42.740 --> 00:12:45.299
"Passed away" means died.

00:12:45.299 --> 00:12:48.029
"Promised" means he made a promise.

00:12:48.029 --> 00:12:49.389
"He scooped up":

00:12:49.389 --> 00:12:51.870
A handful is the amount held in the palm.

00:12:51.870 --> 00:12:54.379
It is the capacity of both palms.

00:12:54.379 --> 00:12:55.580
"I asked":

00:12:55.580 --> 00:12:57.759
Meaning I requested wealth.

00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:59.600
"You are being stingy with me":

00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:02.480
Meaning you are being accused of stinginess from my perspective.

00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.710
The intended meaning is: "You are not giving to me."

00:13:05.710 --> 00:13:07.149
"I did not withhold from you":

00:13:07.149 --> 00:13:08.909
Meaning from the gift.

00:13:08.909 --> 00:13:10.429
"Except that I intended":

00:13:10.429 --> 00:13:12.700
Meaning I was determined to do so.

00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:13.899
"Count it":

00:13:13.899 --> 00:13:14.940
From counting,

00:13:14.940 --> 00:13:16.860
which is enumeration.

00:13:16.860 --> 00:13:19.259
"Take twice as much":

00:13:19.259 --> 00:13:21.740
Meaning one thousand five hundred.

00:13:21.740 --> 00:13:26.860
Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, had delayed the gift due to his preoccupation.

00:13:26.860 --> 00:13:28.059
"More severe":

00:13:28.059 --> 00:13:30.610
Meaning the most severe disease.

00:13:30.690 --> 00:13:34.370
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:13:34.370 --> 00:13:36.370
It is derived from the hadith

00:13:36.370 --> 00:13:38.610
the acceptance of the report of a single narrator.

00:13:38.610 --> 00:13:41.730
It also shows the recommendation of fulfilling a promise.

00:13:41.730 --> 00:13:44.690
It also shows the commendability of generosity in giving,

00:13:44.690 --> 00:13:49.629
by avoiding excessive strictness in verification.

00:13:49.629 --> 00:13:52.210
Chapter: Debt.

00:13:52.210 --> 00:13:55.169
Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported

00:13:55.169 --> 00:13:58.289
that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:13:58.289 --> 00:14:01.250
would have a deceased man brought to him

00:14:01.250 --> 00:14:03.169
who had a debt upon him.

00:14:03.169 --> 00:14:04.610
He would ask,

00:14:04.610 --> 00:14:07.539
"Has he left anything to cover his debt?"

00:14:07.539 --> 00:14:12.100
If it was reported that he had left enough to cover his debt, he would pray over him.

00:14:12.100 --> 00:14:14.500
Otherwise, he would say to the Muslims,

00:14:14.500 --> 00:14:17.309
"Pray over your companion."

00:14:17.309 --> 00:14:20.509
When Allah granted him the conquests,

00:14:20.509 --> 00:14:21.710
he said,

00:14:21.710 --> 00:14:25.629
"I am closer to the believers than their own selves."

00:14:25.629 --> 00:14:27.149
In one narration:

00:14:27.149 --> 00:14:32.940
"There is no believer except that I am closer to him in this world and the Hereafter.

00:14:33.019 --> 00:14:38.460
So whoever among the believers dies and leaves a debt, I am responsible for its repayment.

00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:42.049
And whoever leaves wealth, it is for his heirs."

00:14:42.049 --> 00:14:43.570
In one narration:

00:14:43.570 --> 00:14:46.879
"And whoever leaves dependents, they are our responsibility."

00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:48.559
In one narration:

00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:51.759
"Let his agnatic heirs inherit from him, whoever they may be.

00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:54.720
And whoever leaves a debt or a burden,

00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.610
let him come to me, for I am his guardian."

00:14:58.610 --> 00:15:01.840
Commentary on the hadith:

00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.139
"Brought" means he was brought forward.

00:15:05.139 --> 00:15:08.419
"Deceased" means the dead person.

00:15:08.419 --> 00:15:13.409
"He would ask" means the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

00:15:13.409 --> 00:15:16.049
"Has he left anything to cover his debt?"

00:15:16.049 --> 00:15:20.059
Meaning an amount exceeding the costs of his burial preparations.

00:15:20.059 --> 00:15:23.340
"If it was reported" means if they informed him.

00:15:23.340 --> 00:15:24.700
"Enough to cover":

00:15:24.700 --> 00:15:27.419
Meaning that which settles a debt.

00:15:27.419 --> 00:15:30.700
"I am closer to the believers than their own selves":

00:15:30.779 --> 00:15:33.100
Because he, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:15:33.100 --> 00:15:36.539
offered them such counsel, compassion, and kindness

00:15:36.539 --> 00:15:39.179
that he was the most merciful of all creation.

00:15:39.179 --> 00:15:41.820
Thus, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:15:41.820 --> 00:15:46.240
is the greatest of all creation in his favor upon them, more than anyone else.

00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:50.019
"Burden" means dependents.

00:15:50.019 --> 00:15:53.940
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:15:53.940 --> 00:15:56.019
It is derived from the hadith

00:15:56.019 --> 00:15:59.730
the encouragement to pay off debts during one's lifetime.

00:15:59.730 --> 00:16:02.929
The hadith also indicates that the repayment of debt

00:16:02.929 --> 00:16:08.340
comes from the estate before the distribution of inheritance.

00:16:08.340 --> 00:16:10.720
Book of Agency.

00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:17.220
Agency is the delegation of a matter and the authority to act to another.

00:16:17.220 --> 00:16:22.769
Chapter: The agency of a partner for his partner in division and other matters.

00:16:22.769 --> 00:16:25.889
'Uqbah ibn 'Amir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported

00:16:25.889 --> 00:16:28.850
that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:16:28.850 --> 00:16:33.570
gave him sheep to distribute among his Companions as sacrifices.

00:16:33.649 --> 00:16:37.009
A young goat remained, according to one narration.

00:16:37.009 --> 00:16:39.759
It became a one-year-old goat for 'Uqbah.

00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:44.000
He mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:48.350
who said, "Sacrifice it yourself."

00:16:48.350 --> 00:16:51.580
Commentary on the hadith:

00:16:51.580 --> 00:16:55.039
"Distribute" means to divide.

00:16:55.039 --> 00:17:00.659
A young goat is one of the young of goats that has become strong.

00:17:00.659 --> 00:17:04.160
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:08.240
It is derived from the hadith the legitimacy of the sacrifice.

00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:11.680
It also shows the permissibility of sacrificing a one-year-old goat.

00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:16.930
Because the young goat is one of the offspring of goats.

00:17:16.930 --> 00:17:23.869
Chapter: If a Muslim appoints a belligerent non-Muslim as an agent in the land of war or in the land of Islam, it is permissible.

00:17:23.869 --> 00:17:27.869
'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, may Allah be pleased with him, said:

00:17:27.869 --> 00:17:31.150
I wrote a contract with Umayyah ibn Khalaf

00:17:31.150 --> 00:17:34.349
that he would protect my property in Makkah,

00:17:34.430 --> 00:17:37.869
and I would protect his property in Madinah.

00:17:37.869 --> 00:17:40.029
When I mentioned "The Merciful" (al-Rahman),

00:17:40.029 --> 00:17:43.069
he said, "I do not know al-Rahman.

00:17:43.069 --> 00:17:47.009
Write to me using the name you used in the days of ignorance."

00:17:47.009 --> 00:17:49.839
So I wrote, "Abd 'Amr."

00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:52.240
When the day of Badr came,

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:56.559
I went out to a mountain to protect him when the people were asleep.

00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:58.480
Bilal saw him.

00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:02.559
He went out until he stood before a group of the Ansar

00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:08.700
and said, "Umayyah ibn Khalaf! May I not be saved if Umayyah is saved!"

00:18:08.700 --> 00:18:13.099
A group of the Ansar went out with him in pursuit of us.

00:18:13.099 --> 00:18:15.740
When I feared they would catch up to us,

00:18:15.740 --> 00:18:19.500
I left his son behind to distract them, and they killed him.

00:18:19.500 --> 00:18:22.299
Then they refused to stop until they followed us.

00:18:22.299 --> 00:18:24.859
He was a heavy man.

00:18:24.859 --> 00:18:26.779
When they caught up to us,

00:18:26.779 --> 00:18:28.779
I said to him, "Kneel."

00:18:28.779 --> 00:18:29.980
So he knelt.

00:18:30.059 --> 00:18:33.099
I threw myself over him to protect him,

00:18:33.099 --> 00:18:37.500
but they struck him with their swords from beneath me until they killed him.

00:18:37.500 --> 00:18:40.619
One of them hit my leg with his sword.

00:18:40.619 --> 00:18:46.690
'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf used to show us that scar on the back of his foot.

00:18:46.690 --> 00:18:50.109
Commentary on the hadith:

00:18:50.109 --> 00:18:55.230
"I wrote a contract" means I made a covenant and wrote a document for it.

00:18:55.230 --> 00:18:56.750
"My property":

00:18:56.750 --> 00:18:58.029
"Property" (al-saghiyah)

00:18:58.109 --> 00:19:03.680
refers to a person's special interests, including wealth, family, entourage, and followers.

00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:05.200
"Day of Badr":

00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:07.440
Meaning the Battle of Badr.

00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:08.720
"To protect him":

00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:10.480
Meaning to guard him.

00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:11.680
"Saw him":

00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:13.259
Meaning he caught sight of him.

00:19:13.259 --> 00:19:15.819
"May I not be saved if Umayyah is saved":

00:19:15.819 --> 00:19:17.180
He said that

00:19:17.180 --> 00:19:23.869
because Umayyah used to torture Bilal, may Allah be pleased with him, in Makkah severely.

00:19:23.869 --> 00:19:24.910
"Group":

00:19:24.910 --> 00:19:26.509
Meaning a party.

00:19:26.509 --> 00:19:28.190
"In pursuit of us":

00:19:28.190 --> 00:19:30.349
Meaning: they are searching for us.

00:19:30.349 --> 00:19:31.390
He left behind.

00:19:31.390 --> 00:19:33.390
Meaning: he left behind us.

00:19:33.390 --> 00:19:34.829
He has a build.

00:19:34.829 --> 00:19:36.269
Meaning: Ibn Umayyah.

00:19:36.269 --> 00:19:38.029
His name is ‘Ali.

00:19:38.029 --> 00:19:40.269
He was a heavy-set man.

00:19:40.269 --> 00:19:43.309

00:20:38.750 --> 00:20:40.670
Or something that is about to spoil,

00:20:40.670 --> 00:20:45.180

00:20:50.779 --> 00:20:55.420
A slave girl of ours saw one of our sheep dying,

00:20:55.420 --> 00:20:58.700

00:23:15.009 --> 00:23:18.589

His companions may rebuke him and disapprove of him,

00:23:44.019 --> 00:23:47.220
Even if the ruler does not command them to do so.

00:23:47.220 --> 00:23:51.220
It contains the legitimacy of appointing an agent for those present and capable.

00:23:51.220 --> 00:23:53.940

00:24:01.299 --> 00:24:06.690
And for other Muslims against the public treasury (Bayt al-Mal).

00:24:06.690 --> 00:24:12.619
Chapter: If one gives something as a gift to an agent or an intercessor of a people, it is permissible.

00:24:12.619 --> 00:24:14.539
On the authority of Marwan Ibn al-Hakam,

00:24:14.539 --> 00:24:16.539
And al-Miswar Ibn Makhramah:

00:24:16.539 --> 00:24:19.259
That the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:24:19.259 --> 00:24:22.940
Said when the delegation of Hawazin came to him as Muslims:

00:24:22.940 --> 00:24:27.259
They asked him to return their wealth and their captives to them.

00:24:27.259 --> 00:24:28.859
He said to them:

00:24:28.859 --> 00:24:30.619
"I have with me those whom you see.

00:24:30.619 --> 00:24:33.740
The most beloved speech to me is the most truthful.

00:24:33.740 --> 00:24:36.460
So choose one of the two groups:

00:24:36.460 --> 00:24:39.099
Either the captives or the wealth."

00:24:39.099 --> 00:24:41.660
"I had waited."

00:24:41.660 --> 00:24:44.220
The Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:24:44.220 --> 00:24:46.859
Had waited for them for ten-odd nights,

00:24:46.859 --> 00:24:49.420
When he returned from al-Ta'if.

00:24:49.420 --> 00:24:53.579
When it became clear to them that the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:24:53.579 --> 00:24:57.740
Would not return to them anything but one of the two groups,

00:24:57.819 --> 00:24:58.859
They said:

00:24:58.859 --> 00:25:01.579
"We choose our captives."

00:25:01.579 --> 00:25:03.579
So he stood among the Muslims,

00:25:03.579 --> 00:25:06.299
And praised Allah as He deserves,

00:25:06.299 --> 00:25:07.819
Then said:

00:25:07.819 --> 00:25:09.500
"To proceed:

00:25:09.500 --> 00:25:13.579
These brothers of yours have come to us repentant.

00:25:13.579 --> 00:25:17.339
I have decided to return their captives to them.

00:25:17.339 --> 00:25:21.900
Whoever among you likes to do so willingly, let him do it.

00:25:21.900 --> 00:25:24.380
And whoever likes to keep his share,

00:25:24.460 --> 00:25:29.259
Until we give it to him from the first spoils Allah grants us,

00:25:29.259 --> 00:25:30.940
Let him do so."

00:25:30.940 --> 00:25:32.700
The people said:

00:25:32.700 --> 00:25:35.259
"We do so willingly, O Messenger of Allah."

00:25:35.259 --> 00:25:36.859
He said to them:

00:25:36.859 --> 00:25:39.740
"We do not know who among you has consented to this,

00:25:39.740 --> 00:25:41.819
And who has not.

00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:46.380
So return until your representatives report your decision to us."

00:25:46.380 --> 00:25:47.980
The people returned,

00:25:47.980 --> 00:25:50.460
And their representatives spoke to them,

00:25:50.460 --> 00:25:54.380
Then they returned to the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:25:54.380 --> 00:25:59.259
And informed him that they had consented and agreed.

00:25:59.259 --> 00:26:02.720
Commentary on the hadith:

00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:04.480
The delegation of Hawazin.

00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:05.519

00:26:05.519 --> 00:26:10.160
A group that visits leaders for a visit and to request a gift.

00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:14.640

00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:19.180
It was after the conquest in the eighth year of the Hijrah.

00:26:19.180 --> 00:26:20.140
"Return":

00:26:20.140 --> 00:26:21.740

00:26:21.740 --> 00:26:22.940

00:26:27.170 --> 00:26:28.690
"It became clear to them":

00:26:28.690 --> 00:26:30.609
Meaning it appeared to them.

00:26:30.609 --> 00:26:32.529
"To do so willingly":

00:26:32.529 --> 00:26:37.869

00:26:39.309 --> 00:26:42.140

00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:46.000
The Fay':

00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:52.140
It is what the Muslims obtain from the wealth of the disbelievers without war or jihad.

00:26:52.140 --> 00:26:53.420
"We do not know":

00:26:53.420 --> 00:26:55.180
Meaning we do not have knowledge.

00:26:55.180 --> 00:26:57.259

00:27:02.220 --> 00:27:06.460
He is the one in charge of the affairs of the tribe or town, managing their matters.

00:27:06.460 --> 00:27:10.500
He reports their condition and needs to the leader.

00:27:10.500 --> 00:27:14.130
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:27:14.130 --> 00:27:16.210
It is derived from the hadith:

00:27:16.210 --> 00:27:20.609
That the spoils of war are only owned by the victors through distribution.

00:27:20.609 --> 00:27:25.009
It contains that a promise of compensation for an unknown period is permissible.

00:27:25.009 --> 00:27:29.410
Since it is not known when Allah, the Almighty, will grant them spoils.

00:27:29.410 --> 00:27:37.329
It contains that it is permissible for the Imam, if the people of war come to him as Muslims after he has taken their wealth and families,

00:27:37.329 --> 00:27:41.789
To return them to them if he sees a benefit in that.

00:27:41.789 --> 00:27:44.589
It contains the acceptance of the report of a single narrator.

00:27:44.589 --> 00:27:50.509
The hadith indicates that the wealth of a Muslim is not lawful except with his willing consent.
