00:00:00,820 --> 00:00:03,819
A hadith and commentary.

2
00:00:03,819 --> 00:00:08,699
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

3
00:00:08,699 --> 00:00:12,119
"Were it not that I might burden my Ummah,"

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:16,120
"I would have commanded them to use the siwak with every ablution."

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,250
Commentary:

6
00:00:18,250 --> 00:00:21,410
Using the siwak at the time of ablution is a Sunnah.

7
00:00:21,410 --> 00:00:23,410
To those who practice it:

8
00:00:23,410 --> 00:00:26,410
One of the ways to remember it

9
00:00:26,410 --> 00:00:29,410
is to place the siwak near the place of ablution.

10
00:00:29,410 --> 00:00:32,439
So, when a person intends to perform ablution,

11
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:35,439
he uses the siwak during the ablution,

12
00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:38,439
in order to attain the reward of obeying the Prophet, peace be upon him,

13
00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:41,439
and implementing his Sunnah.
