00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:11.900
presents

00:00:11.900 --> 00:00:16.300
Abridged Sahih al-Bukhari

00:00:16.300 --> 00:00:22.500
On the authority of Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), who said:

00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:26.339
"Thursday! And what is Thursday?"

00:00:26.579 --> 00:00:30.579
Then he wept until his tears moistened the pebbles.

00:00:30.579 --> 00:00:32.100
He said:

00:00:32.100 --> 00:00:38.340
The illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) intensified on a Thursday.

00:00:38.340 --> 00:00:39.700
He said:

00:00:39.700 --> 00:00:41.810
"Bring me a writing tablet,

00:00:41.810 --> 00:00:46.530
so that I may write for you a document after which you will never go astray."

00:00:46.530 --> 00:00:48.619
Then they disputed.

00:00:48.619 --> 00:00:50.140
In one narration:

00:00:50.140 --> 00:00:51.579
‘Umar said:

00:00:51.579 --> 00:00:56.219
"The Prophet (peace be upon him) is overcome by pain,

00:00:56.460 --> 00:00:59.740
and we have the Book of Allah; it is sufficient for us."

00:00:59.740 --> 00:01:02.820
They differed and the clamor grew loud.

00:01:02.820 --> 00:01:06.640
Yet, dispute is not appropriate in the presence of a Prophet.

00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:08.000
They said:

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:12.319
"The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) is delirious."

00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:13.439
He said:

00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:14.719
"Leave me,

00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:19.730
for what I am in is better than what you are calling me to."

00:01:19.730 --> 00:01:23.010
Before his death, he gave three instructions:

00:01:23.090 --> 00:01:26.849
"Expel the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula,

00:01:26.849 --> 00:01:31.409
bestow gifts upon the delegations just as I used to bestow upon them,"

00:01:31.409 --> 00:01:33.980
and I forgot the third.

00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:35.500
In one narration:

00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:38.379
Ibn ‘Abbas went out saying:

00:01:38.379 --> 00:01:41.180
"The tragedy, the true tragedy,

00:01:41.180 --> 00:01:47.650
is what came between the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and his writing."

00:01:47.650 --> 00:01:51.180
Commentary on the hadith:

00:01:51.180 --> 00:01:53.739
*Khadaba* means moistened.

00:01:53.819 --> 00:01:56.780
*Al-Hasba’* means pebbles.

00:01:56.780 --> 00:01:59.890
*Waja‘uhu* refers to his final illness.

00:01:59.890 --> 00:02:03.409
*Tanaza‘u* means they differed.

00:02:03.409 --> 00:02:05.810
*Hajara* means he spoke incoherently.

00:02:05.810 --> 00:02:07.090
It is said:

00:02:07.090 --> 00:02:10.379
"A sick person *hajara* when he raves."

00:02:10.379 --> 00:02:12.379
"From the Arabian Peninsula":

00:02:12.379 --> 00:02:15.580
From ‘Aden to Iraq in length,

00:02:15.580 --> 00:02:18.909
and from Jeddah to the Levant in width.

00:02:18.909 --> 00:02:20.669
"Bestow gifts upon the delegations":

00:02:20.669 --> 00:02:23.310
Meaning, give rewards to the delegations.

00:02:23.310 --> 00:02:29.569
These are those who visit the rulers for meetings, to request aid, and so forth.

00:02:29.569 --> 00:02:31.569
"And I forgot the third":

00:02:31.569 --> 00:02:34.449
One of the narrators of the hadith forgot it.

00:02:34.449 --> 00:02:36.449
It is said it was the Qur’an,

00:02:36.449 --> 00:02:39.250
it is said it was the equipping of Usamah’s army,

00:02:39.250 --> 00:02:41.710
and it is said other things.

00:02:41.710 --> 00:02:43.069
*Al-Raziyyah*:

00:02:43.069 --> 00:02:45.620
Meaning the calamity.

00:02:45.620 --> 00:02:49.389
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:02:49.389 --> 00:02:54.110
The hadith refutes the claim that the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:02:54.189 --> 00:02:57.069
did not appoint a successor for the leadership.

00:02:57.069 --> 00:03:04.830
It also shows that a leader may give instructions at his death regarding what he deems to be in the best interest of the Ummah.

00:03:04.830 --> 00:03:08.659
Chapter: Knowledge and Exhortation at Night

00:03:08.659 --> 00:03:11.379
On the authority of Umm Salamah, who said:

00:03:11.379 --> 00:03:17.139
The Prophet (peace be upon him) woke up one night and said:

00:03:17.139 --> 00:03:19.259
"Subhan Allah!

00:03:19.259 --> 00:03:20.780
In one narration:

00:03:20.780 --> 00:03:23.840
"La ilaha illa Allah!

00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:27.039
What trials have been sent down tonight?

00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.530
And what treasures have been opened?

00:03:30.530 --> 00:03:33.680
Who will awaken the dwellers of the chambers?

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:39.870
For how many a woman clothed in this world will be naked in the Hereafter."

00:03:39.870 --> 00:03:43.419
Commentary on the hadith:

00:03:43.419 --> 00:03:44.620
*Unzila*:

00:03:44.620 --> 00:03:46.340
Meaning revealed.

00:03:46.340 --> 00:03:47.699
*Al-Fitan*:

00:03:47.699 --> 00:03:49.490
Meaning the punishment.

00:03:49.490 --> 00:03:51.009
*Al-Khaza’in*:

00:03:51.009 --> 00:03:53.460
Meaning the treasures of mercy.

00:03:53.460 --> 00:03:54.819
*Al-Hujurat*:

00:03:54.819 --> 00:03:59.520
Meaning the dwellings of the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:00.800
*Fa-rubba*:

00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.939
Meaning, how many.

00:04:02.939 --> 00:04:05.180
"Clothed in this world":

00:04:05.180 --> 00:04:07.659
Meaning wearing garments.

00:04:07.659 --> 00:04:09.900
"Naked in the Hereafter":

00:04:09.900 --> 00:04:13.810
Meaning she has no reward in the Hereafter.

00:04:13.810 --> 00:04:17.620
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:04:17.620 --> 00:04:19.699
One learns from the hadith:

00:04:19.699 --> 00:04:23.300
The legitimacy of remembering Allah after waking up,

00:04:23.379 --> 00:04:26.259
the guidance to look after one’s family,

00:04:26.259 --> 00:04:30.899
and waking them for worship.

00:04:30.899 --> 00:04:33.939
Chapter: Conversing at Night about Knowledge

00:04:33.939 --> 00:04:36.740
On the authority of ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Umar, who said:

00:04:36.740 --> 00:04:39.620
The Prophet (peace be upon him) performed

00:04:39.620 --> 00:04:43.300
the ‘Isha’ prayer at the end of his life.

00:04:43.300 --> 00:04:45.220
When he finished the prayer,

00:04:45.220 --> 00:04:48.259
the Prophet (peace be upon him) stood up

00:04:48.259 --> 00:04:49.779
and said:

00:04:49.779 --> 00:04:53.060
"Do you see this night of yours?

00:04:53.060 --> 00:04:54.819
For at the head of one hundred years,

00:04:54.899 --> 00:05:00.110
not one person who is on the face of the earth today will remain."

00:05:00.110 --> 00:05:05.550
The people were confused by the statement of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)

00:05:05.550 --> 00:05:10.829
regarding what they were discussing about these hadiths concerning a hundred years.

00:05:10.829 --> 00:05:15.069
But the Prophet (peace be upon him) only meant:

00:05:15.069 --> 00:05:19.339
"Not one who is on the face of the earth today will remain,"

00:05:19.339 --> 00:05:21.180
intending by that

00:05:21.180 --> 00:05:25.500
that this century would come to an end.

00:05:25.579 --> 00:05:28.930
Commentary on the hadith:

00:05:28.930 --> 00:05:32.779
*Al-Samar* is conversation at night.

00:05:32.779 --> 00:05:37.759
*Ara’aytum* is a word for questioning and seeking information.

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:39.519
*Fawahila al-nas*:

00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.959
Meaning they misunderstood and erred in interpretation.

00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:44.319
*Fi maqalah*:

00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.240
Meaning in the statement.

00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:48.560
*Takhram dhalika al-qarn*:

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.480
He meant the end of the century upon the passing of one hundred years from that statement.

00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:57.439
It was the century in which he was living,

00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:02.800
meaning its people would pass away and none of them would remain after one hundred years.

00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:08.079
He did not mean that the world would perish entirely.

00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:11.899
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:14.699
The hadith is among the signs of Prophethood.

00:06:14.699 --> 00:06:19.019
This duration marks the end of the generation they were in.

00:06:19.019 --> 00:06:21.180
One learns from the hadith:

00:06:21.180 --> 00:06:23.339
Whoever knows the shortness of his life

00:06:23.339 --> 00:06:27.699
should strive in worship.

00:06:27.779 --> 00:06:30.500
On the authority of ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas,

00:06:30.500 --> 00:06:36.740
that he spent a night at the house of Maymunah, the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him),

00:06:36.740 --> 00:06:38.860
who was his maternal aunt.

00:06:38.860 --> 00:06:40.379
In one narration:

00:06:40.379 --> 00:06:46.740
"To see how the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was at night."

00:06:46.740 --> 00:06:49.699
I lay down across the width of the pillow,

00:06:49.699 --> 00:06:55.870
while the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and his wife lay along its length.

00:06:56.029 --> 00:07:00.350
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) slept

00:07:00.350 --> 00:07:02.910
until the middle of the night,

00:07:02.910 --> 00:07:07.310
or a little before or after it.

00:07:07.310 --> 00:07:11.889
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) woke up.

00:07:11.889 --> 00:07:13.410
In one narration:

00:07:13.410 --> 00:07:14.610
He said:

00:07:14.610 --> 00:07:16.800
"The little boy has slept."

00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.860
He sat up, wiping the sleep from his face with his hand.

00:07:20.860 --> 00:07:22.379
In one narration:

00:07:22.379 --> 00:07:25.660
He sat up and looked at the sky.

00:07:25.660 --> 00:07:31.139
Then he recited the last ten verses of Surah Al ‘Imran.

00:07:31.139 --> 00:07:34.420
Then he went to a hanging water skin,

00:07:34.420 --> 00:07:38.019
performed wudu’ from it, and performed it well.

00:07:38.019 --> 00:07:40.639
Then he stood to pray.

00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:42.560
Ibn ‘Abbas said:

00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:46.000
I stood and did as he did.

00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.339
Then I went and stood by his side.

00:07:49.339 --> 00:07:52.459
He placed his right hand on my head,

00:07:52.540 --> 00:07:56.339
and took hold of my right ear, twisting it.

00:07:56.339 --> 00:07:57.939
In one narration:

00:07:57.939 --> 00:07:59.939
He took hold of my forelock.

00:07:59.939 --> 00:08:02.800
He placed me on his right side.

00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.959
He prayed two rak‘ahs,

00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:06.879
then two rak‘ahs,

00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:08.879
then two rak‘ahs,

00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:10.800
then two rak‘ahs,

00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:12.800
then two rak‘ahs,

00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:14.959
then two rak‘ahs,

00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:17.149
then he performed witr.

00:08:17.149 --> 00:08:18.509
In one narration:

00:08:18.509 --> 00:08:21.870
The prayer of the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:08:21.870 --> 00:08:23.870
was thirteen rak‘ahs,

00:08:23.870 --> 00:08:25.870
meaning at night.

00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:28.100
Then he lay down.

00:08:28.100 --> 00:08:29.860
In one narration:

00:08:29.860 --> 00:08:31.220
Then he slept

00:08:31.220 --> 00:08:35.379
until I heard his snoring or heavy breathing.

00:08:35.379 --> 00:08:37.940
Until the caller to prayer came to him,

00:08:37.940 --> 00:08:39.139
so he stood up

00:08:39.139 --> 00:08:42.179
and prayed two light rak‘ahs,

00:08:42.179 --> 00:08:45.299
then went out and prayed the morning prayer.

00:08:45.299 --> 00:08:47.299
And in one narration, he added:

00:08:47.299 --> 00:08:50.100
He used to say in his supplication:

00:08:50.100 --> 00:08:53.620
"O Allah, place light in my heart,

00:08:53.620 --> 00:08:55.940
and in my vision light,

00:08:55.940 --> 00:08:58.340
and in my hearing light,

00:08:58.340 --> 00:09:00.740
and to my right light,

00:09:00.740 --> 00:09:03.220
and to my left light,

00:09:03.220 --> 00:09:05.220
and above me light,

00:09:05.220 --> 00:09:07.379
and below me light,

00:09:07.379 --> 00:09:09.460
and in front of me light,

00:09:09.460 --> 00:09:11.700
and behind me light,

00:09:11.700 --> 00:09:14.960
and grant me light."

00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:18.269
Commentary on the hadith:

00:09:18.269 --> 00:09:19.710
*Fad-taja‘tu*:

00:09:19.789 --> 00:09:22.769
Meaning I placed my side on the ground.

00:09:22.769 --> 00:09:24.690
"Across the width of the pillow":

00:09:24.690 --> 00:09:27.649
On the side and edge of the pillow.

00:09:27.649 --> 00:09:28.690
It is said:

00:09:28.690 --> 00:09:31.379
Width is the opposite of length.

00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:33.940
"Then he recited the last ten verses":

00:09:33.940 --> 00:09:36.259
Of Surah Al ‘Imran.

00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:38.659
They are from His saying, the Almighty:

00:09:38.659 --> 00:09:41.940
"Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth..."

00:09:41.940 --> 00:09:44.299
to the end of the surah.

00:09:44.299 --> 00:09:45.820
*Shann*:

00:09:45.820 --> 00:09:47.340
Meaning a water container.

00:09:47.419 --> 00:09:50.860
If it is made of leather and worn out.

00:09:50.860 --> 00:09:53.340
"I did as he did":

00:09:53.340 --> 00:09:56.990
Meaning: He performed ablution in a manner similar to how he performed it.

00:09:56.990 --> 00:09:58.429
Rubbing it.

00:09:58.429 --> 00:10:01.549
Meaning: He massages and rubs it.

00:10:01.549 --> 00:10:03.230
Then he performed the Witr prayer.

00:10:03.230 --> 00:10:07.860
This implies that he prayed thirteen rak'ahs.

00:10:07.860 --> 00:10:09.700
The young boy slept.

00:10:09.700 --> 00:10:11.299

From the benefits of the hadith.

One learns from the hadith.

00:10:40.220 --> 00:10:43.580

Chapter: Preserving Knowledge.

00:11:44.139 --> 00:11:47.659
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:11:47.659 --> 00:11:52.139
They say that Abu Hurayrah narrates too many hadiths.

00:11:52.139 --> 00:11:54.379
But Allah is the One to whom we shall return.

00:11:54.379 --> 00:12:01.460
And they say: "What is the matter with the Muhajirun and the Ansar that they do not narrate as he does?"

00:12:01.460 --> 00:12:07.299
My brothers among the Muhajirun were occupied by trading in the marketplaces.

00:12:07.299 --> 00:12:12.899
And my brothers among the Ansar were occupied by working on their lands.

00:12:12.899 --> 00:12:15.539
I was a poor man.

00:12:15.539 --> 00:12:21.710
I would stay with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, just to fill my stomach.

00:12:21.710 --> 00:12:23.230
In one narration:

00:12:23.230 --> 00:12:27.629
So I would neither eat leavened bread nor wear fine garments.

00:12:27.629 --> 00:12:31.230
And no man or woman served me.

00:12:31.230 --> 00:12:35.570
I would press my stomach against the pebbles due to hunger.

00:12:35.570 --> 00:12:38.610
I would ask a man to recite a verse to me.

00:12:38.850 --> 00:12:40.049
Even though it was with me.

00:12:40.049 --> 00:12:43.250
So that he might take me home and feed me.

00:12:43.250 --> 00:12:48.450
The kindest of people to the poor was Ja'far Ibn Abi Talib.

00:12:48.450 --> 00:12:53.470
He would take us home and feed us whatever was in his house.

00:12:53.470 --> 00:12:58.990
He would even bring out to us an empty skin container.

00:12:58.990 --> 00:13:03.179
We would split it open and lick whatever was inside it.

00:13:03.179 --> 00:13:05.740
I am present when they are absent.

00:13:05.740 --> 00:13:08.450
And I retain when they forget.

00:13:08.529 --> 00:13:12.610
One day, the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:

00:13:12.610 --> 00:13:18.289
"No one among you will spread out his garment until I finish this speech of mine,"

00:13:18.289 --> 00:13:20.850
"Then gather it to his chest,"

00:13:20.850 --> 00:13:25.100
"But he will never forget anything of my speech."

00:13:25.100 --> 00:13:29.740
So I spread out my cloak, and I had no other garment on me.

00:13:29.740 --> 00:13:34.620
Until the Prophet, peace be upon him, finished his speech.

00:13:34.620 --> 00:13:37.820
Then I gathered it to my chest.

00:13:37.820 --> 00:13:40.419
By the One who sent him with the truth,

00:13:40.419 --> 00:13:45.539
I have not forgotten anything of that speech to this day.

00:13:45.539 --> 00:13:49.299
By Allah, were it not for two verses in the Book of Allah,

00:13:49.299 --> 00:13:52.960
I would never have narrated anything to you.

00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:59.279
“Lo! Those who hide the proofs and the guidance which We revealed, after We had made it clear to mankind in the Scripture: such are accursed of Allah and accursed of those who have the power to curse.” (2:159)

00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:00.799
Up to His saying:

00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:03.250
The Most Merciful.

Meaning: The appointment is with Allah on the Day of Resurrection.

00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:19.600
He will hold me accountable if I intentionally lie.

00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:23.279

By the two parties during the contract.

00:14:39.149 --> 00:14:40.590
"In the marketplaces."

00:14:40.590 --> 00:14:45.649
They were named as such because people stand in them on their feet (suq).

00:14:45.649 --> 00:14:47.409
"Working on their lands."

00:15:15.789 --> 00:15:18.659
I would not have narrated anything at all.

00:15:18.659 --> 00:15:19.940

00:16:25.090 --> 00:16:28.289
"As for one of them, I have disseminated it."

The Prophet, peace be upon him, knew that this would not happen during his lifetime.

00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:56.880
So he forbade them from it after his death.

00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:00.579

"He is in the way of Allah."

00:19:34.460 --> 00:19:37.500
Meaning: He is the one fighting in the way of Allah,

00:19:37.500 --> 00:19:40.980
Not the one seeking booty or fame.

00:19:40.980 --> 00:19:44.930

00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:54.160
Has lost.

00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:56.799

00:20:03.099 --> 00:20:08.880
“They are asking thee concerning the Spirit. Say: The Spirit is by command of my Lord, and of knowledge ye have been vouchsafed but little.” (17:85)

00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:12.559
On the authority of Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:15.519
I was with the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:17.839
In a field in Madinah,

00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:21.039
While he was leaning on a palm-leaf stalk.

00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:23.839
A group of Jews passed by,

00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:25.680
Some of them said:

00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:27.920
"Ask him about the soul."

00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:29.680
And others said:

00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:31.279
"Do not ask him."

00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:34.430
"He might let you hear what you dislike."

00:20:34.430 --> 00:20:36.990
So they stood before him and said:

00:20:36.990 --> 00:20:38.910
"O Abu al-Qasim!"

00:20:38.910 --> 00:20:41.549
"Tell us about the soul."

00:20:41.549 --> 00:20:44.190
He stood for a moment, looking [upward].

00:20:44.190 --> 00:20:47.230
I knew that revelation was coming to him.

00:20:47.230 --> 00:20:48.910
So I stepped back from him.

00:20:48.910 --> 00:20:51.309
Until the revelation ascended.

00:20:51.309 --> 00:20:53.069
Then he said:

00:20:53.069 --> 00:20:55.950
﴾And they ask you about the soul...﴿

00:20:55.950 --> 00:21:00.210
“They are asking thee concerning the Spirit. Say: The Spirit is by command of my Lord, and of knowledge ye have been vouchsafed but little.” (17:85)

00:21:00.210 --> 00:21:03.490
Commentary on the hadith:

00:21:03.490 --> 00:21:06.000
"Harith" means cultivation or crops.

00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:07.440
"Yatawakka'"

00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:10.109
means to lean and rely upon something.

00:21:10.109 --> 00:21:11.390
"Asib"

00:21:11.390 --> 00:21:13.710
is the stalk of a palm branch.

00:21:13.710 --> 00:21:15.309
They scrape off its leaves,

00:21:15.309 --> 00:21:18.430
and use them as sticks.

00:21:18.430 --> 00:21:19.630
"Bi-nafar"

00:21:19.630 --> 00:21:20.829
means a group of men,

00:21:20.829 --> 00:21:23.650
numbering from three to ten.

00:21:23.650 --> 00:21:25.970
﴾And they ask you about the soul...﴿

00:21:25.970 --> 00:21:28.690
“They are asking thee concerning the Spirit. Say: The Spirit is by command of my Lord, and of knowledge ye have been vouchsafed but little.” (17:85)

00:21:28.690 --> 00:21:31.170
meaning, it is among His creations,

00:21:31.170 --> 00:21:34.609
which He commanded to be, and it was.

00:21:34.609 --> 00:21:38.130
Thus, there is no great benefit in asking about it,

00:21:38.130 --> 00:21:41.789
given your lack of knowledge regarding other things.

00:21:41.789 --> 00:21:45.279
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:47.519
It is derived from the hadith

00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:52.000
that Allah the Exalted did not disclose all knowledge to His servants,

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:53.680
as a test for them,

00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:57.759
and to make them realize their incapacity and their need for Him.

00:21:57.759 --> 00:21:59.680
And that it is the duty of a person

00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:03.119
to ask about what he needs and what benefits him,

00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:06.960
and the condemnation of those who ask questions not intended for anything

00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:12.019
except to be difficult and to challenge.

00:22:12.180 --> 00:22:14.819
Chapter: One who refrains from some choices

00:22:14.819 --> 00:22:18.180
for fear that the understanding of some people might fall short,

00:22:18.180 --> 00:22:21.420
and they might fall into something worse.

00:22:21.420 --> 00:22:23.579
On the authority of 'A'ishah, she said:

00:22:23.579 --> 00:22:27.660
I asked the Prophet (peace be upon him) about the Hijr (the semi-circular wall),

00:22:27.660 --> 00:22:29.660
"Is it part of the House (the Ka'bah)?"

00:22:29.660 --> 00:22:31.259
He said, "Yes."

00:22:31.259 --> 00:22:32.299
I said,

00:22:32.299 --> 00:22:35.579
"Then why did they not include it in the House?"

00:22:35.579 --> 00:22:36.779
He said,

00:22:36.779 --> 00:22:40.339
"Your people ran short of funds."

00:22:40.339 --> 00:22:41.940
In another narration:

00:22:42.019 --> 00:22:45.140
"Do you not see that your people built the Ka'bah,

00:22:45.140 --> 00:22:48.339
and limited it to less than the foundations of Ibrahim?"

00:22:48.339 --> 00:22:50.740
I said, "O Messenger of Allah,

00:22:50.740 --> 00:22:54.819
will you not restore it to the foundations of Ibrahim?"

00:22:54.819 --> 00:22:55.940
I said,

00:22:55.940 --> 00:22:58.980
"And what is the matter with its door being elevated?"

00:22:58.980 --> 00:23:00.180
He said,

00:23:00.180 --> 00:23:02.099
"Your people did that

00:23:02.099 --> 00:23:06.579
so they could let in whom they wished and keep out whom they wished."

00:23:06.579 --> 00:23:10.980
"Were it not that your people are newly removed from the Age of Ignorance (Jahiliyyah),

00:23:10.980 --> 00:23:15.779
I would fear that their hearts might reject my including the Hijr in the House,

00:23:15.779 --> 00:23:19.460
and my placing its door on the ground."

00:23:19.460 --> 00:23:20.900
In a narration:

00:23:20.900 --> 00:23:23.059
"And I would have made two doors for it,

00:23:23.059 --> 00:23:26.420
an eastern door and a western door."

00:23:26.420 --> 00:23:29.779
"And I would have extended it to the foundation of Ibrahim."

00:23:29.779 --> 00:23:31.299
And in a narration:

00:23:31.299 --> 00:23:33.619
"And I would have made two doors for it,

00:23:33.619 --> 00:23:38.619
a door for people to enter and a door for them to exit."

00:23:38.619 --> 00:23:42.160
Commentary on the hadith:

00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:43.599
"Al-Ikhtiyar"

00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:46.079
means the chosen thing.

00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:47.279
"Al-Jadr"

00:23:47.279 --> 00:23:49.059
refers to the Hijr.

00:23:49.059 --> 00:23:50.819
"Is it part of the House?"

00:23:50.819 --> 00:23:53.440
meaning, is it part of the Ka'bah?

00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:55.759
"Qasurat bihim al-nafaqah"

00:23:55.759 --> 00:24:00.369
means the pure funds they had set aside were insufficient.

00:24:00.369 --> 00:24:03.250
"Hadith 'ahdihim bil-Jahiliyyah"

00:24:03.250 --> 00:24:07.200
means they were new and recent to Islam, having just left disbelief.

00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:09.839
"I fear that their hearts might reject it"

00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:12.210
means they might feel aversion.

00:24:12.210 --> 00:24:15.680
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:17.839
It is derived from the hadith

00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:20.480
that one may abandon some aspects of enjoining good

00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:25.200
if it is feared that it might be a cause for the tribulation of people who would reject it,

00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:27.759
and hasten to oppose it.

00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:31.279
And that if a benefit and a harm conflict,

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:35.599
and it is impossible to combine performing the benefit and avoiding the harm,

00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:37.549
one begins with the most important.

00:24:37.549 --> 00:24:40.349
It also contains guidance on the politics of souls,

00:24:40.349 --> 00:24:44.609
by using what they are comfortable with in religion, other than the obligatory acts.

00:24:44.609 --> 00:24:48.450
And that reconciling hearts toward obedience and not alienating them

00:24:48.450 --> 00:24:52.369
is a Shari'ah objective.

00:24:52.369 --> 00:24:55.730
Chapter: One who singles out some people for knowledge to the exclusion of others,

00:24:55.730 --> 00:24:59.230
out of fear that they might not understand.

00:24:59.230 --> 00:25:01.230
On the authority of 'Ali, he said:

00:25:01.230 --> 00:25:04.349
"Speak to people about what they recognize,

00:25:04.349 --> 00:25:09.009
do you want Allah and His Messenger to be denied?"

00:25:09.009 --> 00:25:12.480
Commentary on the hadith:

00:25:12.559 --> 00:25:16.160
Chapter: One who singles out some people for knowledge to the exclusion of others.

00:25:16.160 --> 00:25:21.380
Leaving out some people from specific knowledge due to their limited understanding.

00:25:21.380 --> 00:25:24.980
"Speak to people" means address the people.

00:25:24.980 --> 00:25:28.660
"About what they recognize" means about what they understand.

00:25:28.660 --> 00:25:29.940
The intent is:

00:25:29.940 --> 00:25:33.180
Speak to them according to the capacity of their intellects.

00:25:33.180 --> 00:25:36.700
"Do you want Allah and His Messenger to be denied?"

00:25:36.700 --> 00:25:39.740
Because if a person hears what he does not understand,

00:25:39.740 --> 00:25:42.380
and what he cannot conceive as possible,

00:25:42.380 --> 00:25:44.940
he believes it to be impossible out of ignorance,

00:25:44.940 --> 00:25:47.740
and thus he does not believe in it.

00:25:47.740 --> 00:25:51.660
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:25:51.660 --> 00:25:53.579
It is derived from the hadith

00:25:53.579 --> 00:25:57.980
the guidance to refrain from speaking about ambiguous matters to the general public,

00:25:57.980 --> 00:26:00.140
for fear of causing tribulation.

00:26:00.140 --> 00:26:04.980
And that everyone should be spoken to according to their level of understanding.

00:26:04.980 --> 00:26:11.599
The report contains evidence for the principle of "blocking the means" (sadd al-dhara'i').

00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:13.440
On the authority of Anas Ibn Malik,

00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.640
that the Prophet (peace be upon him),

00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:19.599
with Mu'adh riding behind him on the mount,

00:26:19.599 --> 00:26:20.720
said:

00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:23.200
"O Mu'adh Ibn Jabal!"

00:26:23.200 --> 00:26:24.400
He said,

00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:28.180
"At your service, O Messenger of Allah, and at your command."

00:26:28.180 --> 00:26:29.299
He said,

00:26:29.299 --> 00:26:30.900
"O Mu'adh!"

00:26:30.900 --> 00:26:32.019
He said,

00:26:32.019 --> 00:26:35.460
"At your service, O Messenger of Allah, and at your command."

00:26:35.460 --> 00:26:37.220
[He repeated this] three times.

00:26:37.220 --> 00:26:38.500
He said,

00:26:38.500 --> 00:26:42.740
"There is no one who testifies that there is no god but Allah,

00:26:42.740 --> 00:26:45.619
and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah,

00:26:45.619 --> 00:26:47.859
sincerely from his heart,

00:26:47.859 --> 00:26:51.680
but that Allah will forbid him from the Fire."

00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:52.640
He said,

00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:54.480
"O Messenger of Allah,

00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:58.509
shall I not inform the people so they may rejoice?"

00:26:58.509 --> 00:26:59.710
He said,

00:26:59.710 --> 00:27:02.130
"Then they will rely [upon it]."

00:27:02.130 --> 00:27:07.490
And Mu'adh informed others of it at the time of his death, fearing sin.

00:27:07.490 --> 00:27:10.990
Commentary on the hadith:

00:27:10.990 --> 00:27:12.269
"Radifuhu"

00:27:12.269 --> 00:27:15.390
means riding behind him on the animal.

00:27:15.390 --> 00:27:16.670
"Labbayk"

00:27:16.670 --> 00:27:21.839
means I am constant in your obedience, time after time.

00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:23.359
"Sa'dayk"

00:27:23.359 --> 00:27:28.430
means I am assisting in your obedience, time after time.

00:27:28.430 --> 00:27:30.509
"Sincerity from his heart"

00:27:30.509 --> 00:27:34.430
is a qualification to exclude the testimony of the hypocrites.

00:27:34.430 --> 00:27:37.309
"Allah will forbid him from the Fire"

00:27:37.390 --> 00:27:38.269
It is said:

00:27:38.269 --> 00:27:41.019
it means forbidding his eternal stay therein.

00:27:41.019 --> 00:27:42.460
"Yattakilu"

00:27:42.460 --> 00:27:44.460
means they will rely [upon it and neglect deeds].

00:27:44.460 --> 00:27:45.900
"Ta'athuman"

00:27:45.900 --> 00:27:48.700
means fearing to fall into sin.

00:27:48.700 --> 00:27:54.210
The sin that occurs by concealing what Allah has commanded to be conveyed.

00:27:54.210 --> 00:27:58.000
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:27:58.000 --> 00:28:00.160
It is derived from the hadith

00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:04.880
that the word of Tawhid, with its conditions, is a means of salvation for the servant.

00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:08.000
The hadith shows singling out some people for knowledge,

00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:11.279
if one is safe from them relying [on it] and becoming lax,

00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:14.000
as opposed to those from whom one is not safe.

00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:18.319
It also shows the merit of conveying knowledge and not concealing it,

00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:21.359
and the merit of Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him),

00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:28.420
and his status with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him).

00:28:28.420 --> 00:28:31.519
Chapter: Modesty in seeking knowledge.

00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:34.079
On the authority of Umm Salamah, she said:

00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:38.880
Umm Sulaym came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)

00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:40.400
and said,

00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:42.240
"O Messenger of Allah,

00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:46.259
Allah is not ashamed of the truth.

00:28:46.259 --> 00:28:50.259
Is a ghusl (ritual bath) required for a woman if she has a wet dream?"

00:28:50.259 --> 00:28:53.619
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,

00:28:53.619 --> 00:28:55.920
"If she sees the fluid."

00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:58.319
Umm Salamah covered,

00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:00.500
meaning her face.

00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:01.940
In a narration:

00:29:01.940 --> 00:29:04.500
Umm Salamah laughed,

00:29:04.500 --> 00:29:05.460
and said,

00:29:05.460 --> 00:29:07.299
"O Messenger of Allah,

00:29:07.299 --> 00:29:09.299
do women have wet dreams?"

00:29:09.299 --> 00:29:10.579
He said,

00:29:10.579 --> 00:29:13.299
"Yes, may your right hand be covered in dust!

00:29:13.299 --> 00:29:16.819
Then how does her child resemble her?"

00:29:16.819 --> 00:29:20.299
Commentary on the hadith:

00:29:20.299 --> 00:29:22.140
"If she sees the fluid"

00:29:22.140 --> 00:29:23.869
means the semen.

00:29:23.869 --> 00:29:25.470
"Taribat yaminuk"

00:29:25.470 --> 00:29:27.150
means may you become poor.

00:29:27.150 --> 00:29:29.710
This phrase and its likes

00:29:29.710 --> 00:29:34.420
flow on the tongues of the Arabs without the intent of an actual supplication.

00:29:34.420 --> 00:29:37.059
"Then how does her child resemble her?"

00:29:37.059 --> 00:29:42.829
meaning, the child resembles the mother if her fluid precedes or is dominant.

00:29:42.829 --> 00:29:46.609
From the benefits of the hadith:

00:29:46.609 --> 00:29:48.450
It is derived from the hadith

00:29:48.450 --> 00:29:51.809
that modesty does not prevent one from seeking the truth.

00:29:51.809 --> 00:29:53.890
Praiseworthy shyness is that which is rooted in reverence,

00:29:53.890 --> 00:29:56.450
and which manifests as a form of honoring,

00:29:56.450 --> 00:29:58.849
and showing respect to one's elders.

00:29:58.849 --> 00:30:01.009
Conversely, blameworthy shyness,
