[0:21][Music] [Music] in our last lesson we mentioned a few other deeds

[0:55]that help us or protect us against al hadillah and the note

[1:01]that help us against also protect us from it we mentioned the

[1:07]dua of imam which is the 11th dua of asahifa sajjadiya we

[1:14]said reading that is definitely beneficial and hopefully allah subhanahu wa will

[1:20]answer our call for he has promised to do so as long

[1:26]as we uphold the conditions of supplication when he said call upon

[1:31]me and i shall answer you which means that whenever we uphold

[1:38]the conditions of supplication or say the conditions of the supplement that

[1:45]allah will definitely answer us sooner or later we also mentioned we

[1:55]also mentioned a few other deeds i believe we mentioned two other

[2:03]deeds we mentioned praying on time and we read a lengthy tradition

[2:08]by imam assad explaining what happens at the time of death and

[2:14]how the angel of death helps the believer against the shaitaan he

[2:20]pushes this shaitaan away from the believer if he realizes that this

[2:28]believer did what this believer would pray on time the believer would

[2:35]pray on time last but not least we mentioned advice from imam

[2:38]assad regarding glorifying allah's rights today inshallah we're going to mention other

[2:47]deeds that also protect us from al hadilla and and you'll realize

[2:54]that there are you know there's a good amount of deeds that

[2:57]we can do from now to protect ourselves against al-hadilah and that

[3:04]shows you that allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala doesn't want anyone to fail the

[3:10]test allah azzawajal wants us to pass and he wants us to

[3:13]end up in heaven that is the ultimate goal but unfortunately human

[3:19]beings due to their persistence at disobeying allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala lead themselves

[3:26]into hellfire god forbid so the first deed we're going to mention

[3:31]today is a prayer that one can perform in the kahda the

[3:39]month that we are currently living the qadha al-haram there is a

[3:49]prayer that is recommended to be done on sunday the sundays of

[3:55]the qadha and the reward of that prayer the reward of that

[4:01]prayer is quite enormous part of the reward is that the human

[4:08]being will die as a woman so his his iman his faith

[4:11]will be preserved and when he leaves this world what what will

[4:17]happen he will leave it as a movement which means he will

[4:20]not give in to the devil's whispers at the time of death

[4:27]he will not give in to a shaitaan if the shaitaan tells

[4:31]him to disbelieve or to doubt in the truth again this is

[4:35]part of the reward of the prayer how do we know this

[4:40]we know it from a tradition by rasulullah was one of our

[4:58]grand scholars and uh he was uh he was a scholar with

[5:06]high spirituality when you read his his works the way he talks

[5:11]about allah subhanahu wa ta'ala the way he talks about allah you

[5:17]realize that he has immense knowledge but he also has a really

[5:23]high level of spirituality and connection with allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and

[5:34]so say that in the book mentions the following tradition i'm going

[5:40]to mention it from the book as he cites uh let me

[5:54]send you the tradition before we read it one second sorry so

[6:09]i sent you the tradition on the chat section we still have

[6:14]one last part of it which i will send later inshaallah when

[6:18]we get to it so the tradition says that anas ibn malik

[6:22]anas ibn malik said kharaja rasulullah prophet muhammad sallallahu alaihi came out

[6:37]to the people on sunday on which month the month of the

[6:44]qadha which is the month after shawwal and before the who amongst

[7:00]you wants to repent to allah or which one amongst you wanted

[7:05]to repent they said all of us want to repent o messenger

[7:20]of allah so the the muslims the companions of the prophet salallahu

[7:30]they told him what we all want to repent was so he

[7:56]said perform a ritual bath and perform and pray for erica's now

[8:04]when the tradition says to pray for or to perform for rikaz

[8:08]it means that we should perform um two prayers two prayers and

[8:15]each prayer will consist of what of two decades so after the

[8:20]two decades you will be performing the shahood and tesleem once you're

[8:24]done the first two records you'll do the second two decades in

[8:30]each require he says read surat al-fatiha once three times and surat

[8:39]al-falaq and surah once a person finishes his prayer he should seek

[8:55]forgiveness from allah subhanahu wa seventy times now just as a note

[9:02]or a side note this word can be understood as seek forgiveness

[9:11]seventy times in the prayer but it seems that the prophet sallallahu

[9:18]alaihi is talking about doing after the prayer not inside the prayer

[9:25]so it says then seek forgiveness 70 times which means there is

[9:53]no power there is no power nor might save in allah the

[10:00]exalted the great perhaps one day we can explain the meaning of

[10:13]then he says recite the following supplication so after you say say

[10:21]the following so he tells them to call upon allah using two

[10:35]names the name haziz which means the one who is so mighty

[10:39]he cannot be defeated cannot be conquered and which means the one

[10:48]who conceals and forgives abundantly conceal my sins ya allah meaning forgive

[11:00]my sins and forgive and conceal the sins of all believers male

[11:09]and female believers for surely it is only you who forgives the

[11:19]sins now this is what this is the way you perform the

[11:27]prayer as you realize it it is not a long prayer it

[11:31]doesn't take very long to perform it it takes maybe about 10

[11:34]and 15 minutes to finish this prayer but what is the reward

[11:39]of the prayer this is where the prophet mentions the reward he

[11:53]said that any muslim any individual amongst his nation amongst the muslim

[12:02]nation meaning any muslim or a muslim who performs this deed will

[12:07]be called from the sky will be called from the sky what

[12:13]will the caller say is the caller will say o slave of

[12:29]allah o slave of allah your repentance has been accepted your repentance

[12:36]has been accepted and now you can start performing deeds you can

[12:48]you can restart performing your deeds as in you have a fresh

[12:54]start all of your sins have been forgiven all of your sins

[12:57]have been forgiven your repentance has been accepted so it is as

[13:03]if you've been born into the world again it's as if you've

[13:11]just you know started with your days of tech leaf so now

[13:15]you have what you have a fresh start make sure you look

[13:19]at your deeds make sure you supervise yourself well and you choose

[13:26]to do the deeds that please allah subhanahu wa so the caller

[13:35]tells him what yeah for surely you your repentance has been accepted

[13:46]and your sin has been forgiven the prophet says before we continue

[13:57]up to here the tradition does not mention who that caller is

[14:02]who is it for all we know it could be allah as

[14:08]in allah creates a voice allah creates a voice and the voice

[14:14]addresses what that individual or it could be one of the infallibles

[14:18]maybe rasulallah maybe or a specific angel in short the tradition does

[14:28]not tell you who that caller is then the prophet says then

[14:37]an angel makes a second call an angel makes a second call

[14:43]that stems from what from below the throne so the angel calls

[14:49]that individual from below the throne he says o slave meaning o

[15:00]slave of god you have been blessed and your family has been

[15:07]blessed and your progeny has been blessed uh he says someone else

[15:14]will make a call this is the third call addressing who addressing

[15:20]the person who performed this prayer [Music] o slave of god your

[15:31]opponents on the day of judgment will be pleased with you what

[15:37]does that mean who are these opponents well these opponents are the

[15:44]people or the people that this individual will have oppressed or will

[15:51]have done some sort of injustice towards see when we live in

[15:56]in this finite and limited world because we're fallible sometimes we might

[16:02]you know do injustice to our family members or friends or neighbors

[16:10]or companions or co-workers etc it's possible for example one day you

[16:18]slip and you back bite someone now when you backbit this individual

[16:24]you did injustice to him so now he has a right over

[16:30]you he has a right over you and he can ask allah

[16:31]subhanahu wa'ta'ala for his right on the day of judgment one day

[16:37]for example you know you um you get into a fight with

[16:45]someone and you injure that individual right or you physically attack him

[16:53]now he has a right over you of course as long as

[16:57]you injured him or physically attacked him when you did not have

[17:00]the right to do so he has a right over you make

[17:03]sense so in short um the mistreatment we show to fellow human

[17:13]beings when we don't have the right to show them such mistreatment

[17:18]gives them what gives them a right over us on the day

[17:24]of judgement so those people who were oppressed by us those people

[17:29]we did certain forms of in justice towards they can ask allah

[17:35]for their rights on the day of judgment these people are called

[17:38]opponents and so the tradition says here that the person who performs

[17:47]the salat allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala will basically make his opponents pleased with

[17:55]him on the day of judgment so that means his opponents will

[18:07]forgive him his opponents will do what his opponents will forgive him

[18:11]on the day of judgment because of this blessed salah allah will

[18:26]in one way or another convince those people to forgive that individual

[18:47]another angel will call the slave and will tell him o slave

[18:52]of god when you die you will die as you are on

[18:57]the path of belief meaning as you are a believer this is

[19:02]the golden statement that we're looking for in our lesson you will

[19:08]not die as a disbeliever your your faith will not will not

[19:12]disappear before you pass away your faith will remain in your soul

[19:22]until you pass away and your grave will be spacious there will

[19:34]be space in your grave or say space will be made in

[19:42]your grave so it will not be a tight disturbing uncomfortable grave

[19:49]no la tala will make it spacious and on top of that

[19:53]allah will enlighten the grave you know it will not be dark

[19:57]it will be enlightened so another call will be made and the

[20:36]caller will address that person saying o slave of god your parents

[20:43]will become pleased with you now after this word the tradition says

[20:53]this could be part of the prophet's word or explanation or it

[21:00]could be actually part of the call the call that is stemming

[21:06]from the caller means what it means even if they're displeased with

[21:13]you so what the tradition is indicating is if someone's parents were

[21:18]displeased with him performing the salat changes their their say their mood

[21:28]or their perception of their child and they become pleased with the

[21:34]child and your parents have been forgiven subhanallah the parents have been

[21:44]forgiven because of a deed performed by the child that that tells

[21:48]you a lot about the importance of what of having children and

[21:52]raising them while teaching them you know islam teaching them the islam

[21:57]of allah teaching them to be righteous children because ultimately the good

[22:04]deeds they do might might cause the forgiveness of their appearance as

[22:11]in it might cause allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala to to forgive that child's

[22:19]parents now after it says it says here there are two interpretations

[22:39]we can derive from this segment the first one is your parents

[22:47]have been forgiven because of you so for your sake because you

[22:54]did the salah and you are a good slave of allah your

[22:58]parents have been forgiven and your progeny has been forgiven the second

[23:06]interpretation is your parents have been forgiven you've been forgiven and your

[23:11]progeny has been forgiven so the deed doesn't only affect the parents

[23:20]it affects also the children because you've done the salat your sustenance

[23:33]your sustenance will be wide or say will be abundant in this

[23:46]world and in the hereafter all of these segments are part of

[23:54]one call part of one call so we realize that the salat

[24:07]also has an effect on what on on our current life it

[24:12]expands our sustenance in this world and also and it also causes

[24:18]what our sustenance to be wide or abundant in the hereafter bear

[24:28]in mind that there are different forms of sustenance wealth is only

[24:33]one form of sustenance health a good spouse children faith piety smartness

[24:42]clothes shelter medicine all of those are examples of sustenance or manifestations

[24:53]of sustenance ah now the master of the angels or one of

[25:00]the masters of the angels makes a call salam what does he

[25:06]say he tells that person i will come to you with the

[25:15]angel of death what an honor will be present when that person

[25:21]dies and i will tell the angel of death to be gentle

[25:30]with you let me send you the final portion of the tradition

[26:02]i will come with the angel of death to you and i

[26:07]will tell him to be gentle with you thus your soul will

[26:16]be removed from your body with gentleness it will be removed from

[26:20]your body in a gentle manner a manner that is not painful

[26:29]and you will not be scratched by the effect of death this

[26:38]is the literal meaning of the word meaning that basically when the

[26:47]soul is removed that person will not will not get hurt will

[26:54]not feel pain when his soul is departing from his body so

[27:03]we realize that this salat not only helps with doesn't only protect

[27:14]you from al hadidah and then mode it also facilitates the affairs

[27:22]of what sakaratilmat because the soul comes out in a gentle manner

[27:26]it comes out with peace or in a peaceful manner they said

[27:49]what if someone performs the deeds you mentioned meaning that he performs

[27:58]the prayer and the supplication that the prophet mentioned sallallahu is that

[28:16]they're asking him what if someone performs not salat and that supplication

[28:22]the supplication you perform after the salah in a month after uh

[28:27]in a month other than he told them that the effect will

[28:47]be the same the effect will be what will be the same

[28:51]if someone performs this prayer on a sunday in a month other

[28:58]than the qadha for example or muharram then he will receive the

[29:06]same reward the same effects of that prayer will take place however

[29:13]there is a second possibility or a second interpretation for the word

[29:21]fee and that is they're asking the prophet salallahu what if someone

[29:33]performs that prayer in the but does not perform it at the

[29:40]beginning of the qadha he doesn't perform it in the first sunday

[29:43]he performs it say in the second sunday of the qadha or

[29:47]the third sunday or the fourth sunday and so the prophet tells

[29:53]them what mithla the effect is the same so as long as

[29:57]you do it on a sunday in the you will get what

[30:03]the reward of that prayer and the effects that we mentioned you

[30:07]might ask me what leads us to this interpretation what leads a

[30:15]citizen interpretation is the word shahr shahr the word shah literally means

[30:23]month but it also has a second literal meaning and that is

[30:25]uh the crescent moon when the crescent moon is in its first

[30:34]stages in its first stages but it's not extremely small to the

[30:42]point where people can't see it no on the contrary it is

[30:45]you know um apparent for the naked eye so when the crescent

[30:54]moon is in its in its early stages but it is in

[30:59]a phase where people in general can see it with the naked

[31:02]eye it's called what it's called it's called hands i told you

[31:08]there are two interpretations for the for their question either either they're

[31:12]asking will we receive the same reward if we perform this prayer

[31:19]in a month other than or they're asking him what if we

[31:26]perform the prayer on a sunday other than the first sunday of

[31:32]the qadhafi so there are these two possibilities the prophet says so

[31:42]if you know if you want to be precautious and you want

[31:47]to ensure that you receive the reward of this prayer and the

[31:50]effects of this prayer make sure that you perform it in one

[31:56]of the sundays of the now unfortunately for this year we don't

[32:02]have any more sundays in the qadhafi will be um will will

[32:09]finish either on wednesday or thursday i believe today is the 28th

[32:18]sorry so we'll finish either on tuesday to tomorrow might be the

[32:24]last day or wednesday might be the last day of the radar

[32:27]but you can always perform the salat in the upcoming if we

[32:34]are still alive by then insha allah so he says this prayer

[32:51]and these words what i should say in the prayer and what

[32:54]i should say after the prayer one when i was on the

[33:01]night journey ayama usriyabi when i was on the night journey enjoy

[33:18]it now before we continue i'd like to mention a comment regarding

[33:38]the the chain of narrators or specifically one narrator in this hadith

[33:49]i'm not sure if you realize but the person narrating the hadith

[33:53]is anas ibn manik the tradition says so anas ibn malik as

[34:04]you may know was not one of the followers of yes he

[34:09]was a companion of the prophet and he was a servant of

[34:13]the prophet but unfortunately he was not a moali he did not

[34:19]believe in the guardianship and authority and so one might say well

[34:28]how can we you know apply this hadith if anas ibn malik

[34:31]is the narration is the narrator when he is not even a

[34:35]moani and the answer is here the hadith is simply stating a

[34:44]salat that was supposedly taught by rasulallah the content of the hadith

[34:51]does not contradict and does not contradict the you know the traditions

[34:57]and the teachings of it [Music] hence even if anas bin malik

[35:05]is the narrator it's very likely or there is a high chance

[35:09]that whatever is mentioned is true because even though he was not

[35:15]a muwali even though he was not a friend of albert salawatu

[35:20]that doesn't necessarily mean every single word he said was bogus no

[35:27]yes it gives you what this issue of him being uh you

[35:33]know a person who doesn't believe in allah makes you take a

[35:41]stance from anas bin malik and gives room to doubt in his

[35:49]words but that doesn't necessarily mean every single word he said was

[35:54]what was bogus or was a lie it so since the content

[36:01]of the tradition does not contradict does not contradict the quran nor

[36:07]does it contradict the teachings of salawatu allah then we can simply

[36:13]perform the salat with the intention of what does that mean please

[36:23]speak english okay i'll speak english means we're doing this prayer with

[36:30]the intention that ya allah if you want us to do it

[36:34]then here it is we're doing it for you if you truly

[36:38]want us to do it if rasulullah actually taught the muslims this

[36:42]prayer then we are doing it on sunday so please give us

[36:52]the reward mentioned in this tradition makes sense so you can do

[36:59]the prayer without any problem you can do the prayer you can

[37:02]perform it with the intention of meaning ya allah if you want

[37:07]me to perform the salah then i am performing it for you

[37:11]hence please give me the reward that is mentioned in this tradition

[37:18]here a question comes to mind you know what if this narration

[37:31]is a lie what if anas you know fabricated fabricated ally or

[37:37]made a mistake here we have traditions from not one and not

[37:49]two rather several traditions from which tell us that when when you

[38:00]hear a tradition telling you whoever performs a specific deed will get

[38:12]this reward and then you know a specific reward is mentioned if

[38:19]you do that deep with the expectation or with hope of receiving

[38:28]the reward then allah will give you that reward even if the

[38:35]tradition was false someone might say why in the world would god

[38:42]do that i'll tell you why i'm addressing that person who's asking

[38:46]because allah is the old generous the most merciful he has nothing

[38:57]to lose he loves to give azza and so when he sees

[39:00]that i want to attain that reward and i've applied what the

[39:10]tradition said the tradition said rasulullah said whoever does x y and

[39:16]z will receive a specific reward abc jaid i did the deed

[39:23]in hope of getting the reward but on the day of judgment

[39:28]it seemed that you know the fabric the the the narration was

[39:35]fabricated it was not real allah tells me what he does me

[39:38]even though the narration was false i will give you that reward

[39:42]because you perform that deed in hope of getting that reward yes

[39:52]keep in mind that this does not work when it comes to

[40:01]bidah whatever we just mentioned regarding allah giving you the reward giving

[40:07]you the reward for the deed you performed okay this does not

[40:15]apply to innovations when we know that there's a bidha there's an

[40:21]innovation we're not allowed to do it even excuse me even if

[40:27]people say you know what rasulallah mentioned whoever performs this innovation will

[40:37]get a specific reward because we know it's an innovation and the

[40:42]prophet deliberately told us do not do not create innovations and do

[40:48]not you know do not practice or implement innovations do we have

[40:56]an example of an innovation yes we do a clear example that

[41:02]forbade what is known today as salatu tarawi with all due respect

[41:09]of course to our sunni brothers and sisters it is an innovation

[41:13]created by the second cow of um he says it himself hence

[41:22]one should not and cannot perform salat he himself omar says according

[41:31]to sunni traditions that this is a bada but it's a good

[41:39]bidder it's a good innovation that's his word of course not mine

[41:45]so there is no problem in performing the salat that we mentioned

[41:49]we perform it with what with the intention of getting closer to

[41:54]allah and getting the reward mentioned in the tradition if and i

[42:00]say if the tradition was false it was fabricated or you know

[42:05]ana's made a mistake then allah will still give us the reward

[42:09]because he is the all-generous and the all-merciful subhanahu all right all

[42:39]right i think we'll stop here for today i thought we'd have

[42:44]more time to mention at least another deed which protects us from

[42:49]al hadil and then but we'll stop here and insha allah after

[42:56]um after muharram and safar if we're still alive uh i'll keep

[43:01]you updated on when we will resume our classes and we'll continue

[43:07]with the uh the classes uh regarding the hereafter and sha classes

[43:12]and the biography of the prophet classes [Music] ali muhammad was on
