1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,680 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 2 00:00:03,620 --> 00:00:05,900 The story of our mother Eve. 3 00:00:08,330 --> 00:00:09,730 O Eve. 4 00:00:09,890 --> 00:00:11,849 I counsel you to remember Allah. 5 00:00:14,259 --> 00:00:15,619 O Eve. 6 00:00:15,939 --> 00:00:20,820 After Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, clarified the state of those who follow His guidance, 7 00:00:21,179 --> 00:00:23,980 And that they shall neither go astray nor suffer, 8 00:00:24,339 --> 00:00:27,980 He clarified the state of those who turn away from His remembrance, saying: 9 00:00:28,899 --> 00:00:37,420 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 10 00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:43,380 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 11 00:00:43,380 --> 00:00:47,700 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 12 00:00:47,979 --> 00:00:52,579 "My Lord, why have You raised me up blind, 13 00:00:52,579 --> 00:00:55,859 While I was endowed with sight?" 14 00:00:56,060 --> 00:01:01,659 “He will say: So (it must be). Our revelations came unto thee but thou didst forget them. In like manner thou art forgotten this Day.” (20:126) 15 00:01:01,659 --> 00:01:05,260 "And likewise, today you are forgotten." 16 00:01:05,260 --> 00:01:08,659 “Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord; and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.” (20:127) 17 00:01:08,659 --> 00:01:12,780 “Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord; and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.” (20:127) 18 00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:17,379 “Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord; and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.” (20:127) 19 00:01:18,659 --> 00:01:19,700 O Eve. 20 00:01:20,180 --> 00:01:22,859 Our Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, has clarified 21 00:01:22,859 --> 00:01:25,340 A great principle in His Book, 22 00:01:25,819 --> 00:01:31,060 Which will make you certain that no one shall attain happiness in this world 23 00:01:31,420 --> 00:01:34,019 Except those who walk in obedience to Allah. 24 00:01:34,599 --> 00:01:35,959 The Almighty says: 25 00:01:36,439 --> 00:01:41,439 "Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer, 26 00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:45,319 We will surely cause him to live a good life, 27 00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:50,840 And We will surely give them their reward [in the Hereafter] according to the best of what they used to do." 28 00:01:52,459 --> 00:01:53,620 O Eve. 29 00:01:54,060 --> 00:01:58,700 All your enemies live in misery and a constricted life 30 00:01:59,019 --> 00:02:01,819 Because of their war against this religion 31 00:02:02,099 --> 00:02:05,340 And their distance from the obedience of the Lord of the worlds. 32 00:02:05,890 --> 00:02:08,050 Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy on him, said: 33 00:02:08,669 --> 00:02:13,789 "Indeed, He, may He be glorified, has ordained a constricted life for those who turn away from His remembrance. 34 00:02:14,389 --> 00:02:15,590 For whoever turns away from Him, 35 00:02:15,870 --> 00:02:19,110 Shall have a life of constriction in proportion to his turning away. 36 00:02:19,550 --> 00:02:22,669 Even if he enjoys all kinds of worldly blessings, 37 00:02:23,150 --> 00:02:25,629 There remains in his heart a sense of desolation, humiliation, 38 00:02:25,909 --> 00:02:28,509 And regrets that tear the heart apart, 39 00:02:28,949 --> 00:02:32,710 Along with false hopes and present torment. 40 00:02:33,340 --> 00:02:37,379 This is only hidden from him by the intoxication of desires and passion, 41 00:02:37,699 --> 00:02:39,939 And the love of this world and status. 42 00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:43,460 Even if the intoxication of wine is not added to this, 43 00:02:44,020 --> 00:02:47,300 The intoxication of these things is greater than the intoxication of wine, 44 00:02:47,819 --> 00:02:50,620 For the one intoxicated by wine eventually recovers and becomes sober, 45 00:02:51,180 --> 00:02:54,780 But the one intoxicated by whims and the love of this world does not recover, 46 00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:58,699 Except when he is among the ranks of the dead." 47 00:02:59,629 --> 00:03:00,909 Thus, a constricted life 48 00:03:01,389 --> 00:03:08,830 Is inevitable for those who turn away from the remembrance of Allah, which He sent down to His Messenger, peace be upon him, in this world, 49 00:03:09,389 --> 00:03:11,590 In the barzakh (the grave), and on the day of his resurrection. 50 00:03:12,389 --> 00:03:15,110 The eye finds no coolness, the heart finds no tranquility, 51 00:03:15,669 --> 00:03:20,909 And the soul finds no peace except with its God and true object of worship, 52 00:03:21,569 --> 00:03:24,050 While every other object of worship is false. 53 00:03:24,939 --> 00:03:29,020 Whoever finds the coolness of his eye in Allah, every eye finds coolness in him, 54 00:03:29,659 --> 00:03:32,099 And whoever does not find the coolness of his eye in Allah, 55 00:03:32,620 --> 00:03:35,659 His soul will be torn apart by regrets over this world. 56 00:03:36,379 --> 00:03:39,979 Allah, the Almighty, has only granted a good life 57 00:03:40,460 --> 00:03:43,259 To those who believe in Him and do righteous deeds. 58 00:03:44,990 --> 00:03:45,909 O Eve. 59 00:03:46,590 --> 00:03:49,629 Do not be deceived by what they possess of this world, 60 00:03:50,189 --> 00:03:54,830 Or the joy, happiness, and luxury they display before people, 61 00:03:55,509 --> 00:03:57,310 For their inner selves are shattered, 62 00:03:57,870 --> 00:04:00,590 Because they do not remember Allah, the Almighty. 63 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,479 O Eve. 64 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,319 Your saying "SubhanAllah" (Glory be to Allah) and "Alhamdulillah" (Praise be to Allah), 65 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,800 And "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah) and "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the Greatest), 66 00:04:10,439 --> 00:04:13,080 Is better than what they have and more lasting. 67 00:04:13,949 --> 00:04:14,990 The Almighty says: 68 00:04:15,789 --> 00:04:19,029 “Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. But the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better in respect of hope.” (18:46) 69 00:04:19,670 --> 00:04:25,629 “Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. But the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better in respect of hope.” (18:46) 70 00:04:26,540 --> 00:04:30,660 "And the enduring good deeds" — such as these four phrases. 71 00:04:31,740 --> 00:04:33,740 Sayyid Qutb, may Allah have mercy on him, said: 72 00:04:34,579 --> 00:04:38,500 "A life severed from the connection with Allah and His vast mercy 73 00:04:39,139 --> 00:04:42,740 Is a constricted life, no matter how much breadth and enjoyment it contains. 74 00:04:43,579 --> 00:04:48,980 It is a constriction due to the disconnection from Allah and the lack of reliance upon His protection. 75 00:04:49,660 --> 00:04:52,060 It is the constriction of confusion, anxiety, and doubt. 76 00:04:52,790 --> 00:04:54,470 The constriction of greed and caution: 77 00:04:55,220 --> 00:04:57,060 Greed for what is in one's hand, 78 00:04:57,459 --> 00:04:59,060 And caution against losing it. 79 00:04:59,740 --> 00:05:05,180 The constriction of chasing the mirage of ambitions and the regret over everything that slips away. 80 00:05:05,819 --> 00:05:10,740 The heart feels no tranquility of stability except in the presence of Allah, 81 00:05:11,459 --> 00:05:16,660 And it feels no comfort of trust except when it is holding fast to the most trustworthy handhold, 82 00:05:17,180 --> 00:05:19,060 Which has no breaking." 83 00:05:20,019 --> 00:05:24,379 Indeed, the tranquility of faith multiplies life in length and breadth, 84 00:05:24,819 --> 00:05:26,100 And in depth and scope. 85 00:05:26,819 --> 00:05:31,939 And being deprived of it is a misery that the misery of poverty and deprivation cannot match. 86 00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:34,839 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 87 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,519 And he was cut off from the connection with Me. 88 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,240 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 89 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,600 “But he who turneth away from remembrance of Me, his will be a narrow life, and I shall bring him blind to the assembly on the Day of Resurrection.” (20:124) 90 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,040 That is a type of straying, just as he strayed in this world, 91 00:05:49,639 --> 00:05:53,800 And that is a recompense for his turning away from the remembrance in the first life. 92 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,920 So when he asks, 93 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,600 "My Lord, why have You raised me up blind, while I was endowed with sight?" 94 00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:02,240 The answer is: 95 00:06:02,959 --> 00:06:06,199 “He will say: So (it must be). Our revelations came unto thee but thou didst forget them. In like manner thou art forgotten this Day.” (20:126) 96 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,160 "And likewise, today you are forgotten." 97 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,560 “Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord; and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.” (20:127) 98 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,480 “Thus do We reward him who is prodigal and believeth not the revelations of his Lord; and verily the doom of the Hereafter will be sterner and more lasting.” (20:127) 99 00:06:19,459 --> 00:06:22,220 He who turned away from the remembrance of his Lord has indeed transgressed; 100 00:06:22,980 --> 00:06:26,019 He transgressed by casting aside the guidance that was before him, 101 00:06:26,540 --> 00:06:28,860 Even though it was the most precious treasure and provision. 102 00:06:29,540 --> 00:06:33,540 He transgressed by spending his sight on things other than what it was created for, 103 00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:37,060 So he saw nothing of the signs of Allah. 104 00:06:37,779 --> 00:06:38,699 Therefore, it is inevitable 105 00:06:39,180 --> 00:06:41,420 That he lives a constricted life, 106 00:06:41,899 --> 00:06:44,899 And is raised on the Day of Resurrection blind. 107 00:06:48,250 --> 00:06:51,170 The Prophet, peace be upon him, was keen 108 00:06:51,170 --> 00:06:55,209 On teaching women the remembrance of Allah in many hadiths, 109 00:06:55,810 --> 00:06:57,490 And I counsel you with them, 110 00:06:57,970 --> 00:07:01,850 Just as the Prophet, peace be upon him, counseled you. 111 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,800 O Eve. 112 00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:06,800 Maintain your glorification (tasbih) before sleeping, 113 00:07:07,439 --> 00:07:11,000 For it will help you in your daily tasks. 114 00:07:11,959 --> 00:07:13,920 On the authority of Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, 115 00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:18,839 That Fatimah complained of the pain she felt from the hand mill she used to grind grain. 116 00:07:19,740 --> 00:07:24,339 She heard that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, had received captives, 117 00:07:25,060 --> 00:07:28,339 So she went to him to ask for a servant, but she did not find him. 118 00:07:29,220 --> 00:07:30,540 She mentioned it to Aisha, 119 00:07:31,259 --> 00:07:34,019 And when the Prophet, peace be upon him, came, 120 00:07:34,540 --> 00:07:36,779 Aisha told him about it. 121 00:07:37,529 --> 00:07:40,370 He came to us while we had already entered our beds. 122 00:07:40,889 --> 00:07:42,410 We started to get up, 123 00:07:42,850 --> 00:07:45,490 But he said, "Stay where you are." 124 00:07:46,089 --> 00:07:49,209 Until I felt the coolness of his feet on my chest. 125 00:07:49,970 --> 00:07:54,850 He said, "Shall I not guide you both to something better than what you asked for? 126 00:07:55,709 --> 00:07:57,910 When you go to your beds, 127 00:07:58,470 --> 00:08:01,230 Say 'Allahu Akbar' thirty-four times, 128 00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:04,069 'Alhamdulillah' thirty-three times, 129 00:08:04,589 --> 00:08:07,189 And 'SubhanAllah' thirty-three times. 130 00:08:07,750 --> 00:08:11,470 For that is better for you both than what you asked for." 131 00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:13,550 Narrated by al-Bukhari. 132 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,639 And on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 133 00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:23,480 Fatimah, may Allah be pleased with her, came to the Prophet, peace be upon him, 134 00:08:23,879 --> 00:08:25,480 Asking him for a servant. 135 00:08:26,199 --> 00:08:27,240 He said to her: 136 00:08:27,959 --> 00:08:28,720 "Say: 137 00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:33,799 O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne, 138 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,440 Our Lord and the Lord of everything, 139 00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:40,399 Revealer of the Torah, the Gospel, and the Qur'an, 140 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,000 Splitter of the seed and the date stone, 141 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:48,720 I seek refuge in You from the evil of everything whose forelock You hold. 142 00:08:49,539 --> 00:08:52,379 You are the First, and there is nothing before You. 143 00:08:53,019 --> 00:08:55,980 You are the Last, and there is nothing after You. 144 00:08:56,659 --> 00:08:59,700 You are the Manifest, and there is nothing above You. 145 00:09:00,299 --> 00:09:03,299 You are the Hidden, and there is nothing beyond You. 146 00:09:04,019 --> 00:09:05,580 Pay off my debt, 147 00:09:06,059 --> 00:09:07,820 And enrich me against poverty." 148 00:09:08,580 --> 00:09:09,779 Narrated by Muslim. 149 00:09:11,389 --> 00:09:12,389 O Eve. 150 00:09:13,029 --> 00:09:18,350 You should use the comprehensive supplications of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 151 00:09:19,029 --> 00:09:21,389 For they save you time, 152 00:09:21,750 --> 00:09:23,269 And their reward is great. 153 00:09:24,250 --> 00:09:26,889 On the authority of Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, 154 00:09:27,450 --> 00:09:29,970 From Juwayriyah, may Allah be pleased with her, 155 00:09:30,529 --> 00:09:33,129 That the Prophet, peace be upon him, 156 00:09:33,129 --> 00:09:36,649 Left her early in the morning when he prayed the dawn prayer, 157 00:09:37,169 --> 00:09:38,769 While she was in her place of prayer. 158 00:09:39,450 --> 00:09:42,690 Then he returned after the sun had risen, and she was still sitting there. 159 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:44,200 He said, 160 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,240 "Are you still in the same state as I left you?" 161 00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:49,840 She said, "Yes." 162 00:09:50,769 --> 00:09:53,490 The Prophet, peace be upon him, said, 163 00:09:54,049 --> 00:09:58,009 "I have said four phrases after you, three times, 164 00:09:58,730 --> 00:10:01,289 If they were weighed against what you have said since today, 165 00:10:01,610 --> 00:10:02,850 They would outweigh them: 166 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,519 'SubhanAllah wa bihamdihi' (Glory be to Allah and I praise Him), 167 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,120 By the number of His creation, 168 00:10:07,639 --> 00:10:08,799 And the pleasure of His Self, 169 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,480 And the weight of His Throne, 170 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,720 And the ink of His words." 171 00:10:13,549 --> 00:10:14,590 Narrated by Muslim. 172 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,080 O Eve. 173 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,360 When you have performed the obligatory prayer, 174 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,320 Do not rush to get up until you have said this dhikr. 175 00:10:25,470 --> 00:10:27,549 On the authority of al-Fadl ibn al-Hasan al-Damri, 176 00:10:28,070 --> 00:10:30,149 From Umm al-Hakam or Duba'ah, 177 00:10:30,629 --> 00:10:33,149 The daughter of Zubayr ibn Abd al-Muttalib, 178 00:10:33,870 --> 00:10:37,110 Who narrated to him from one of them that she said: 179 00:10:37,870 --> 00:10:41,909 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, obtained some captives, 180 00:10:42,740 --> 00:10:48,500 So my sister, I, and Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, went, 181 00:10:49,100 --> 00:10:51,460 And we complained to him about our situation, 182 00:10:52,250 --> 00:10:55,730 And asked him to grant us something from the captives. 183 00:10:56,590 --> 00:10:59,870 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, 184 00:11:00,470 --> 00:11:02,629 "The orphans of Badr have preceded you, 185 00:11:03,389 --> 00:11:08,389 But I will guide you to what is better for you than that: 186 00:11:09,299 --> 00:11:14,940 Say 'Allahu Akbar' after every prayer thirty-three times, 187 00:11:15,539 --> 00:11:18,019 And 'SubhanAllah' thirty-three times, 188 00:11:18,740 --> 00:11:21,419 And 'Alhamdulillah' thirty-three times, 189 00:11:22,210 --> 00:11:25,809 And 'La ilaha illa Allah, wahdahu la sharika lah' (There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner), 190 00:11:26,529 --> 00:11:28,450 “All that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth glorifieth Allah; unto Him belongeth Sovereignty and unto Him belongeth praise, and He is Able to do all things.” (64:1) 191 00:11:29,090 --> 00:11:31,850 And He is capable of all things." 192 00:11:32,610 --> 00:11:34,409 Narrated by Abu Dawud. 193 00:11:36,100 --> 00:11:37,059 O Eve. 194 00:11:37,659 --> 00:11:41,139 Keep your tongue moist with this dhikr wherever you are, 195 00:11:41,779 --> 00:11:43,860 In your room or in your kitchen, 196 00:11:44,460 --> 00:11:46,139 With people or alone, 197 00:11:46,860 --> 00:11:51,340 For it is the counsel of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, to you. 198 00:11:52,450 --> 00:11:55,169 On the authority of Yusayrah, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 199 00:11:55,850 --> 00:11:59,370 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to us, 200 00:12:00,009 --> 00:12:03,690 "You must perform tasbih (glorification), tahlil (proclaiming oneness), and taqdis (sanctification), 201 00:12:04,289 --> 00:12:05,929 And count them on your fingertips, 202 00:12:06,289 --> 00:12:09,570 For they will be questioned and made to speak. 203 00:12:10,250 --> 00:12:13,009 And do not be heedless, lest you forget mercy." 204 00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:15,559 Narrated by Abu Dawud. 205 00:12:17,299 --> 00:12:18,259 O Eve. 206 00:12:18,940 --> 00:12:20,700 When you grow old and weak, 207 00:12:21,299 --> 00:12:24,059 And you have no wealth to give in charity, 208 00:12:24,779 --> 00:12:28,860 Remember that Allah has gifted you a tongue with which to remember Him, 209 00:12:29,580 --> 00:12:31,100 So say this dhikr. 210 00:12:32,330 --> 00:12:35,450 On the authority of Umm Hani, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 211 00:12:36,210 --> 00:12:40,409 I came to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and said, 212 00:12:41,090 --> 00:12:42,250 "O Messenger of Allah, 213 00:12:42,809 --> 00:12:44,370 Guide me to a deed, 214 00:12:45,009 --> 00:12:48,250 For I have grown old, weak, and heavy." 215 00:12:48,929 --> 00:12:49,730 He said: 216 00:12:50,370 --> 00:12:52,409 Proclaim the greatness of Allah one hundred times, 217 00:12:52,929 --> 00:12:55,049 Praise Allah one hundred times, 218 00:12:55,649 --> 00:12:57,929 And glorify Allah one hundred times; 219 00:12:58,570 --> 00:13:03,250 This is better than one hundred horses, bridled and saddled, in the cause of Allah, 220 00:13:03,850 --> 00:13:05,889 And better than one hundred camels for sacrifice, 221 00:13:06,370 --> 00:13:08,610 And better than freeing one hundred slaves. 222 00:13:09,370 --> 00:13:10,690 It was narrated by Ibn Majah. 223 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,000 O Hawwa, 224 00:13:13,759 --> 00:13:17,559 If the world feels narrow for you and your worries multiply, 225 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,159 Then hold fast to this dhikr. 226 00:13:20,990 --> 00:13:24,669 On the authority of Asma' bint 'Umays, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 227 00:13:25,350 --> 00:13:28,950 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to me: 228 00:13:29,879 --> 00:13:35,360 "Shall I not teach you words to say during times of distress or hardship? 229 00:13:36,220 --> 00:13:36,899 Allah, 230 00:13:37,580 --> 00:13:41,059 Allah is my Lord; I do not associate anything with Him." 231 00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:43,559 It was narrated by Abu Dawud. 232 00:13:45,159 --> 00:13:46,720 Finally, O Hawwa, 233 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,480 You must frequently seek forgiveness (istighfar), 234 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,279 For it is your salvation from the Fire. 235 00:13:53,299 --> 00:13:56,299 On the authority of 'Abdullah Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, 236 00:13:56,899 --> 00:14:01,259 That the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: 237 00:14:02,019 --> 00:14:03,539 "O assembly of women, 238 00:14:04,179 --> 00:14:06,860 Give charity and seek forgiveness often, 239 00:14:07,539 --> 00:14:10,620 For I have seen that you constitute the majority of the people of the Fire." 240 00:14:11,529 --> 00:14:14,250 A sensible woman among them asked: 241 00:14:15,009 --> 00:14:18,490 "And why, O Messenger of Allah, are we the majority of the people of the Fire?" 242 00:14:19,309 --> 00:14:19,870 He said: 243 00:14:20,509 --> 00:14:21,789 "You curse frequently, 244 00:14:22,149 --> 00:14:23,710 And you are ungrateful to your spouses. 245 00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:30,179 I have not seen anyone more deficient in intellect and religion, yet more capable of overcoming a man of sound mind, than you." 246 00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:31,590 She asked: 247 00:14:32,269 --> 00:14:33,429 "O Messenger of Allah, 248 00:14:33,909 --> 00:14:36,230 What is the deficiency of intellect and religion?" 249 00:14:36,980 --> 00:14:37,500 He said: 250 00:14:38,259 --> 00:14:39,940 "As for the deficiency of intellect, 251 00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:43,899 It is that the testimony of two women is equivalent to the testimony of one man; 252 00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:46,460 This is the deficiency of intellect. 253 00:14:47,259 --> 00:14:51,460 And you spend nights without praying and do not fast during Ramadan; 254 00:14:52,139 --> 00:14:54,340 This is the deficiency of religion." 255 00:14:55,139 --> 00:14:56,379 It was narrated by Muslim. 256 00:14:57,669 --> 00:15:00,950 We shall continue in a future meeting, if Allah wills. 257 00:15:01,509 --> 00:15:04,429 And praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. 258 00:15:05,710 --> 00:15:08,750 The story of our mother Hawwa.
