Venue Albert Falls Summary Main Topic
This lecture addresses everyday Islamic etiquettes, spiritual misunderstandings regarding wealth and poverty, finding wisdom in unfulfilled religious journeys, and a comprehensive practical demonstration of performing Salah according to the Sunnah and Hanafi Fiqh.
Key Lessons
Preference vs. Greed for Good Deeds: While respecting elders and scholars is commendable, being eager to secure good deeds—such as filling an open spot in the front row (saff )—is encouraged in Islam.Understanding Prophetic Supplications: The dua to live and pass away among the masakeen (poor/humble) asks for the spiritual attributes of humility, contentment, and simplicity, rather than destitution. Islam encourages financial self-sufficiency so one can support dependents and give charity.Finding Wisdom in Disappointments: When a religious journey like Umrah cannot be completed, a believer receives full reward based on their intention (niyyah ), recalling the patience of the Sahaba (Radhiyallahu anhum) at Hudaybiyah.Physical Accuracy in Salah: Correct posture in Salah—from forming straight rows to proper hand placement and bowing—enhances concentration (khushu' ) and fulfills the Sunnah requirements.
Quranic/Hadith References
Hadith of Ibn Abbas (Radhiyallahu anhu): Declined giving up his position on the right side of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to senior Sahaba, desiring the direct barakah for himself.Dua for the Masakeen: "Allahumma ahyini miskeenan wa amitni miskeenan..." —interpreted by scholars as seeking the humble qualities of the poor rather than financial hardship.Hadith on the Giving Hand: Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that the upper (giving) hand is better than the lower (receiving) hand.Three People Facing Severe Punishment: The Hadith warns against a lying ruler, an elderly adulterer, and an arrogant poor person.Treaty of Hudaybiyah: The experience of the Sahaba (Radhiyallahu anhum) being turned back from Umrah serves as a precedent for accepting Divine decree with trust.
Practical Advice
Aligning Rows: Straighten rows by aligning heels rather than toes to ensure proper shoulder-to-shoulder alignment. Transcript Machine-generated, so it will contain mistakes — the audio is the reference. Tap any line to play from that moment.
0:01 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. 0:06 Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. 0:10 If a person is standing in the back self and a spot comes available in the front, so this, many students of deen, they face this dilemma when they're studying in the madrasa, that sometimes now the ustads are also there, now must they take that spot or must they offer it to the ustad? 0:34 And sometime in the masjid also, a person is there, there's an elder person in the same sub-tai. 0:40 He just take that spot in the front or should he offer it, you know, to the elder person. 0:46 So, there's nothing hard and fast mentioned in the Kitab as a fiqh. 0:51 And amongst the ulama there are two opinions. 0:55 One is that you must make 0:59 You know, respect the elder or your ustad or whatever. 1:03 Allow them the spot. 1:04 Then it is hoped that you'll get two sawabs. 1:07 One is you wanted to go there, you could have gone. 1:11 Now you sacrificed it and you gave it to somebody else. 1:15 The elder, the ustad or whatever. 1:18 So you'll get reward, double, double reward. 1:22 Other ulama say that when it comes to good deeds, 1:28 De. 1:29 You must be greedy for it. 1:32 So you see a spot in the front, you take it. 1:35 Come to other things, give preference. 1:39 So, Abdullah, I think it was Abdullah ibn Abbas, he was sitting on Nabiya Karim sallallahu alayhi wasallam's right side. 1:49 And there were other seniors like Abu Bakr and other Sahaba that were sitting in the gathering, but they were on the left side or not immediately on the right. 1:59 So Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam had something. 2:02 And now the etiquette, the correcting is to al-ayman fal-ayman. 2:07 You will pass it to the right side. 2:10 The Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam asked him that can I give it to elder people? 2:17 So he said no. 2:21 And then he said that I won't give preference to anybody else over now. 2:26 In other words, the barakat from Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I'm not going to give anybody else preference. 2:32 But I want it first. 2:34 So that is found also that the young person when it comes to something like that, he can give preference to himself. 2:42 He is most in need of the sawab. 2:46 He can take it. 2:47 But there is also that view that if you honour that elderly person, so both ways is fine. 2:57 Then, this question is always asked. 3:03 Why is it hard on the nafs? 3:06 To make the dua of Nabi Karim sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 3:09 Allahumma ahyini miskeenu wa amitni miskeena. 3:13 Wa ahshurni fi zumaratil masakeen. 3:17 Ruhullah. 3:18 Let me live amongst the poor. 3:23 Pass away with the poor. 3:24 And be resurrected with the poor. 3:27 So the reason that 3:29 People feel it hard to make this dua. 3:32 It's because they feel that they are asking for poverty. 3:36 Nobody wants to be poor. 3:39 Qadar faqru ayyakuna kufra. 3:43 Poverty is a thing that can make a person go towards kufr also. 3:48 There is a dua. 3:50 Diyallah. 3:51 Protect me from wealth which will make me rebellious and protect me from poverty that can turn me to kufr. 4:03 So nobody wants to become poor. 4:05 It's not a virtue to be poor. 4:11 No virtue there must be poor. 4:14 Poor means you are in need. 4:17 Your needs are not taken care of. 4:18 Now you have to extend your hand to people or you go to just battle it out or whatever. 4:23 Nobody wants that kind of a life. 4:26 I mean, you want a life where you are independent. 4:30 You have got sufficient. 4:32 You can provide for your wife, your children, your dependents. 4:36 You want that kind of a life. 4:38 In one hadith sharif it comes that the upper hand is better than the lower hand. 4:43 In other words, the giving hand is better than the receiving hand. 4:46 Right? 4:48 Then if you take the incident with the sahabi, he thought that he is passing away. 4:54 Right? 4:56 So he told Nabiya Karim sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that see I only got one daughter and Allah Ta'ala has given me lot of wealth so I want to give all this wealth away in charities. 5:11 Now I'm passing away what I'm going to do with the wealth? 5:13 I'll give all the wealth away. 5:15 So Nabiya sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told him no. 5:18 So then he said okay I'll give two thirds of my wealth. 5:21 Told him no. 5:23 He said okay I'll give half of my wealth. 5:25 Said no. 5:27 Then he said, I'll give one-third of my wrath. 5:29 When he said one-third, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told him, alright, one-third, but one-third too is a lot. 5:37 If you want to give one-third, okay, you can give, but that's also a lot. 5:41 And then Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned to him that it is better for you to leave your heirs independent rather than leave them in a situation where they have to now go and extend their hand to people. 5:55 Right? 5:56 So to keep some wealth, to have wealth, there's no problem with that. 6:00 Nobody wants to become poor. 6:02 So because people think that this dua is asking for poverty, that's why they feel hard to make the dua. 6:09 But this dua is not asking for poverty. 6:12 This dua is asking for the sifat of poor people. 6:17 Generally, poor people, they are simple. 6:19 I was mentioning the other day that we went for a program now in Ramadan Sharif to a small town, you know, little small town. 6:32 And I came back, I was telling the family, I said, you know, you go to these small towns, people are just more simple. 6:41 Not so worried about fashion and the calm would be like this. 6:44 You know, it has to be shining, ties polished. 6:47 You know, you find them like a little more, you may get individuals that are, you know, but generally you find that they are more on the simple side. 6:56 I mean, you go to the cities now where 6:59 Then you find people are more conscious about all these things. 7:03 So the poor people generally they are simple. 7:07 They live a simple life. 7:09 And wealth is a thing that it can make a person proud. 7:15 Can make a person become proud. 7:17 Make a person be impatient. 7:20 Because he got wealth. 7:21 He is used to now. 7:23 Traveling business class. 7:24 Priority check-in. 7:26 Priority this. 7:27 Everything is... You don't have to stand in queues and everything. 7:32 Everything gets sorted out. 7:33 You don't have to stand in a bus stop, wait for a bus. 7:36 He's traveling business class. 7:38 They can't come to pick him up. 7:39 So, you know, you become more impatient. 7:42 Right? 7:43 Sometime you can become very high-handed. 7:48 Not everyone, but a person well can make a person like that. 7:53 Whereas a poor person on the other hand, they are more humble. 7:56 They are more simple. 7:58 They are more humble. 8:00 But then you get poor people who are arrogant also. 8:05 And this is one of the people who 8:08 That there is Wa'eed mentioned in the Hadith Sharif. 8:12 Three types of people. 8:14 One is a king who speaks lies. 8:19 Other is an old person who is committing zina. 8:24 And the other is a poor person who is being proud. 8:28 Because a king, he is in a position of authority. 8:32 Why does he need to speak a lie? 8:35 An old man, his shahwat revels 8:38 Aloh. 8:39 Why is he committing zina? 8:41 And a poor person, Allah has saved him from the thing that can make him proud. 8:47 So why is he now going out of his way to be proud? 8:50 So you do get poor people that act proud, arrogant, but generally you find that poor people, they are more humble, they are more simple. 8:59 When a person is making this dua, he is making dua for those sifat. 9:03 And company of poor people. 9:07 Company of poor people. 9:10 When you stay in a company of poor people, you make shukr for what you have. 9:16 But when you join the wealthy, now what you got is bad. 9:25 You have no problem with it, but now all of a sudden it's not enough now. 9:32 My late father used to tell me, he said, you mustn't drive somebody else's car that's better than yours. 9:39 Then your car will be useless now. 9:42 If you're driving a basic car, you're making shukr that I'm not walking in the sun. 9:50 That is, I've got power steering here, I've got aircon, and I'm not walking in the sun. 9:55 I'm not riding bicycle or walking. 9:59 But now if you go to drive one luxury saloon, and now you come sit in your car now, you 10:08 This is not a khaam, man. 10:11 That's a khaam. 10:14 This is what happens now. 10:15 In fact, our Azab, when he spoke to us, he mentioned that if you read the usuls of Masturat Jamaat, I'm not promoting it, I'm just saying what the usuls were. 10:34 The usuls were 10:36 That the masturat, the ladies, you know masturat jamaat, they go out with their wives, with their ladies. 10:45 The masturat jamaat must not be hosted in a wealthy home. 10:50 That was the original usuls. 10:54 The reason being that if they're going to go into a wealthy home, now they're going to see things they don't have at home. 11:01 They're going to see appliances they don't have at home. 11:04 Now, 11:05 Instead of them coming and getting closer to Allah Ta'ala, when you come out in Jamaat, you want to develop zuhr. 11:14 You want to, you know, cut off from the dunya and you want to get closer to Allah Ta'ala. 11:20 But now if you're going to go into wealthy, wealthy homes, you're going to see more dunya. 11:27 More dunya than you got. 11:28 Now when you come home, now your house is no good for you now. 11:31 Now you must get that appliance. 11:33 You have to get this. 11:34 You have to get that. 11:35 This is why the cell phone is so dangerous. 11:40 See with the cell phone, a person is seeing things he can't afford. 11:47 He is seeing destinations he can't visit. 11:51 With the result, he lives a very discontent life. 11:56 He is always discontented. 11:59 So, that was the usools. 12:01 The other usool Hazrat had mentioned is that the masturah jamaat, they must cook their own food and wash their own clothes. 12:09 The house people mustn't cook for them and mustn't wash their clothes. 12:14 The reason for that was, they said that this is normally a woman's work. 12:19 Right? 12:20 Now today we got maids and all that. 12:22 But in old days, right? 12:25 The women used to wash the clothes themselves. 12:27 They didn't have to afford maids and all that. 12:29 I'm talking about, I can remember my mother washing clothes. 12:34 When you're small, you're a small child. 12:36 Now you also want to put your hand inside there. 12:38 I got those memories in my head. 12:40 Right? 12:41 And if you go to the UK and all that, they can't afford to get their maids and everything. 12:45 They have to wash their own clothes. 12:46 Either they've got washing machines or they hand washing or whatever. 12:50 Right? 12:51 And they cook their own food. 12:53 Now if they come out in zaman, 12:55 And that is being done for them. 12:57 So then jamaat become like a holiday. 12:59 This is very good. 13:00 Instead of going three days, we must go forty days. 13:02 I don't wash my clothes too. 13:04 I don't have to eat too. 13:05 I don't have to cook. 13:06 Everything is done for me. 13:09 So these elders had what wisdom when they made usuls. 13:14 I hope that answers the question with regards to that dua. 13:19 Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam don't want everybody to become poor. 13:22 Even his own family he didn't make dua to them as become poor. 13:25 He said that their rizq must be kuta. 13:27 It must be sufficient. 13:30 Kota. 13:30 The ulama explained that you must have enough. 13:33 You mustn't have extras but at the same time you mustn't be short. 13:40 So Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam didn't want anybody to be poor. 13:44 This meaning of this hadith is the stifat of poor people. 13:47 I must have that and I must rather mix with more simple people, poor people. 13:54 That will be better for me. 13:59 The other thing 14:04 Some people going for Umrah and then they are not managing to reach there. 14:14 They are coming back home or people are having to cancel their trip. 14:21 It's a person who is now he's excited and he's going and then he doesn't materialize. 14:30 So you, I mean, human, you feel sad, you feel disappointed, right? 14:38 So, a few things to ponder over that if this has to happen to somebody. 14:46 One is, in Deen, we are told that our niyat 14:53 Is better than our amal. 14:57 Our niyyat is better than our amal. 15:01 If we had a niyyat to do something, Fakka niyyat, now you're going to do this. 15:06 In your mind you've got so many, I'm going to go there, I'm going to do this. 15:10 I'm going to make one extra umrah. 15:12 I'm going to make so many tawafs. 15:15 Madina Sharif, I'm going to finish one khatam. 15:17 You know, you've got all your niyyats before you go. 15:21 When you go, you don't know if you're going to be able to do all that. 15:25 You don't know if you'll really be able to do it. 15:29 But now you had the niyyat, you already got the sawab. 15:34 Number one. 15:35 Number two, when we go to do the action itself, 15:42 Now maybe you're making tawa. 15:43 Somebody pushed you, right? 15:46 Now you turn around to argue with that person. 15:49 You spoilt your mouth there on the matah. 15:51 Right? 15:54 This happens a lot when a person is newly married. 15:58 If he has to protect his wife, they are all pushing him away. 16:05 When I argue, somebody is pushing him from the back or something. 16:10 Or you go to do something and now some reaqari comes in between. 16:15 Or we went to read our namaz and it's not a proper kushu and khuzu in the namaz. 16:20 So the niyyat to do those things, you already got the sawab. 16:23 When you go to do it, maybe you won't get so much sawab. 16:26 Because of all the deficiencies that came into it. 16:30 So the niyyat is more better than the amal. 16:33 So the person should feel that I had made the niyyat. 16:37 I made the niyyat. 16:38 And now it didn't materialize. 16:41 There is some wisdom. 16:42 Allah Ta'ala's wisdom. 16:43 It didn't materialize. 16:44 But at least I know that Allah will reward me on my niyyat. 16:48 Number one. 16:50 Number two. 16:52 We spoke about this the other day. 16:54 Ikhtiyari. 16:55 Ghair ikhtiyari. 16:57 Certain things are within your control. 16:59 Certain things are not within your control. 17:02 So whatever is within your control, you make use of the permissible asbab. 17:09 And you leave it to Allah Ta'ala. 17:11 It's within your control to book a ticket, get your visa, 17:16 Book your accommodation. 17:18 Get to the airport on time. 17:21 Everything. 17:22 That's within your control. 17:25 For the airplane to reach there, that is very scary. 17:29 That's not in your control. 17:32 So if Allah Ta'ala didn't allow for you to reach there, now that you just hand it over to Allah Ta'ala, it was your decree now. 17:41 I can't argue with your decree. 17:43 I can't fight your decree. 17:48 The third thing is that in this you see there are certain sunnats of Nabiya Karim sallallahu alayhi wasallam which you cannot voluntarily make amal upon. 18:08 And it's not necessary also. 18:10 For example, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam passed away at age 63. 18:17 So you cannot plan to pass away at age 63. 18:21 Whatever life Allah Ta'ala gave you. 18:24 But if Allah Ta'ala, He makes a person like Sayyidina Abu Bakr, Sayyidina Umar or passed away at age 63. 18:34 That was just a favour from Allah Ta'ala that He made them copy Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam even in that. 18:42 Right? 18:44 So now, 18:46 To be stoned in Taif. 18:48 To be stoned when you're going to give Dawah. 18:50 That's not something you can make happen to you. 18:56 Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam was going for Umrah. 19:01 He was stopped. 19:04 Not allowed. 19:07 He had to go back home. 19:10 He tried. 19:12 He avoided the army of Khalid bin Waleed who later on became Radhi Allah. 19:20 He took a detour. 19:23 But after that day, stopped the Muslims from entering. 19:29 I'm not going into the whole history. 19:32 And they had to return home. 19:37 Not just talk to you and delay a couple hours and then go and all that. 19:40 No. 19:40 You have to go back home. 19:41 Right? 19:44 Now, that's something you cannot voluntarily make aman upon. 19:50 But to feel, we cannot feel like how they felt because their love was something else. 19:58 Right? 19:59 But a small taste of it. 20:01 How it felt to the Sahaba and Huzoor came right there and they returned back. 20:11 They can't go and make tawaf. 20:12 They can't go. 20:14 They must go back home. 20:17 So now you can you made amal on that. 20:22 Involuntarily. 20:24 But you experienced that in your life. 20:28 The other thing is 20:31 We sitting here, we hear about the wars. 20:35 But it doesn't affect us personally. 20:40 Directly. 20:40 It doesn't affect us. 20:44 Now, you got affected directly. 20:49 You got affected directly by the zulm that these zalims 20:55 I'm meeting out through the Muslims. 21:00 So you got affected by that zulm directly. 21:05 And the last thing that came to my mind when I was advising the children because they also came back. 21:10 I said, you see, maybe one raz, one wisdom is Allah Ta'ala wanted to protect your Ramadan Sharif. 21:26 Because it's no secret that the Saudi regime, they're jippo-ing the dates. 21:34 You can't see a three-hour moon. 21:38 Now what's going to happen in time? 21:40 So it's no secret. 21:41 You know it's impossible. 21:44 One is the ruling now that they pass the fatwa now, whoever is there, they follow the rules. 21:51 But if the moon was impossible to sight, 21:57 Then how did Ramadan start? 22:00 Right? 22:01 Now what's going to happen Eid time? 22:04 So now if they are making Eid on the day that's supposed to be Ramadan. 22:13 Now you'll have to make Eid. 22:14 What you going to do? 22:15 You're there. 22:15 You'll have to make Eid. 22:17 So maybe Allah Almighty wanted to protect you from that. 22:22 Allah Almighty wanted to protect you and protect your Ramadan Sharif. 22:26 So Allah brought you back. 22:27 As much as there is a virtue that if you make Umrah in Ramadan, it's like making Hajj with Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. 22:35 Maybe Allah is going to protect you from that. 22:37 Maybe Allah is going to protect you from something else that we don't even know about. 22:41 The person must never feel despondent. 22:46 Never feel despondent. 22:47 There is always khair. 22:48 There is always hikmah. 22:50 There's always a positive side to everything that happens. 22:54 Sometimes we realize the positive side. 22:56 Sometimes we don't. 22:59 Allah Ta'ala make it easy for everyone. 23:04 Whoever is going, Allah take them with afiat. 23:08 Those who are there, Allah Ta'ala accept all their ibadat, their tawafs, their ziyarat, umrah, etc. 23:16 Dua's. 23:17 And Allah Ta'ala keep everybody with safety and afiyat, etc. 23:22 Ameen. 23:23 But if you know of somebody, 23:26 Who had this kind of experience. 23:28 They feel very down. 23:29 They feel very down. 23:31 So, one is for us also to think that what shortcoming is there in me that I don't go. 23:39 So that also we must make tawbah and make istighfar. 23:43 But you can't go into a depression with that. 23:46 Now something is so wrong with me. 23:50 Allah never allow me. 23:51 He is like a Ghalib. 23:54 He said. 23:56 Tu kis mu se Kaaba jaoge a Ghalib. 24:01 Sharam tumku magar nahi ata. 24:04 So a Ghalib. 24:05 With which face are you going to go to the Ka'bah? 24:07 Don't you have any shame? 24:09 In other words, you've got so much gunas and all that. 24:12 How are you going to go to the Ka'bah Sharif? 24:15 So, our Hazrat Mu'izz Fatiha Sahib rahmatullahi alayhi used to say that Muhammad Ahmad Sahib, I think Fartaab Giri Rahimahullah. 24:24 So he said that Ghalib ne is share se mayusi fayda kardi. 24:30 He said that through this 24:32 A couplet of his. 24:33 He created despair. 24:35 He created despair in the people. 24:37 He said, I am going to go in front of the Kaaba with all my gunas. 24:41 So Maulana Muhammad Ahmad Sahib, he changed that quote. 24:45 He said, Mein isi muh se Kaaba jaunga. 24:50 Sharam ku khat mein milaunga. 24:53 Ro ro ke usku manaunga. 24:55 Meri bigri kuyu banaunga. 24:59 He said, I will go with the same face. 25:03 The shame, I'll take it and put it in the dust. 25:06 What I'll do is, I will cry, cry to him and I'll go. 25:10 I'll make my way like that and I will cry, cry to him and I'll go. 25:14 All I must do is hope. 25:15 Allah is there to answer my duas, to forgive my sins, etc. 25:23 Any other questions? 25:40 We talk about in-namaz. 25:43 So, lot of times what happens is we are unaware of the mas'ala, right? 25:50 Unaware of the mas'ala. 25:52 So, person doesn't know what to do. 25:56 And then if there are lot of safs, the person from the back has to come front. 26:04 Then you got another cavity in that saf and that saf and that saf. 26:09 So one way is that the person who is to the left must move to the right. 26:17 So this has to be done very gradually. 26:20 It cannot be that, you know, a big move now in the namaz. 26:25 Asr. 26:26 Asr. 26:26 Asr. 26:26 Asr. 26:48 The gap in the front. 26:50 But that too has to be done slowly, slowly. 26:53 He can't just walk and go in the front. 26:56 Slowly, slowly he has to make his way and come away into the front. 27:01 To answer your question why most people don't do it is because I think we're unaware. 27:06 Unaware of the mas'ala. 27:08 How that shock should be caused. 27:10 We know how to do it. 27:12 Before the namaz starts. 27:14 If something happens in the namaz, then we don't know how to do it. 27:28 We do this namaz, make some mudhakara of namaz postures. 27:37 So, 27:40 One is when we're reading Salah with Jamaat. 27:43 When we're reading Salah with Jamaat, then obviously we have to form a straight Salah. 27:49 How to make the stuff straight is our heels must be in line. 27:54 If the heels are in line, then all the shoulders will be in line. 27:59 The stuff will be straight. 28:00 If you go with the toes, then you're going to have an uneven line, right? 28:06 You're going to have a straight line in the front, but the shoulders are not going to meet. 28:10 Somebody is a size 10, 11. 28:12 Somebody is a size 5, 6. 28:13 So the shoulders then won't be in a line, right? 28:17 So we have to see that our heels are in line. 28:20 Then inshaAllah that stuff will be straight. 28:25 We stand still. 28:29 We're waiting now. 28:30 The Iqamat is going to be called out. 28:33 And then the Imam, he will make the Takbir al-Tahlimah. 28:38 So the first action now is we've got to raise our hands. 28:43 Our hands are on the side. 28:45 We've got to raise these hands now and bring them up to the earlobes. 28:50 Or as close as possible. 28:52 So, it is not necessary that you have to touch the earlobes. 28:57 If a person cannot touch the earlobes, that is fine. 29:00 That is according to the Hanafi madhab. 29:02 Other madhab may be slightly different. 29:06 In the Hanafi madhab now, you pick your hands up as close as possible to the earlobes. 29:10 Important thing is, these palms... 29:13 Must remain facing the Qibla. 29:16 The fingers must face the sky. 29:20 And the fingers must be left naturally. 29:23 Meaning you don't make them tight. 29:25 You don't spread them apart. 29:27 They must be left naturally. 29:30 So you bring these hands up as close as possible to your ears. 29:34 If you can't touch the ears, it's no problem. 29:36 You don't have to do this. 29:37 Many people go to do this and then the hands go away sideways and the fingers go away in the back. 29:44 So you bring it up as close as possible in line with your ears. 29:49 Fingers are facing the top. 29:51 Arms are facing the Qibla. 29:54 You pick it up. 29:55 Allahu Akbar. 29:59 The important thing is you must say the Takbir. 30:04 Sometimes, because from Makhtab, not in this zaman, I'm talking about when we were in Makhtab, they used to have the practical namaz and the principal would be walking with a stick. 30:16 So that was Saturday morning madrasa. 30:18 It was a very important day in the madrasa. 30:21 Now there is no madrassas at the ceremony in most places. 30:25 So, there was a lot of emphasis on the postures, but sometimes there is no emphasis put on saying the takbir. 30:35 So, to say the takbir at the harimah, this is farz. 30:39 This is farz. 30:40 And to raise the hand is sunnat. 30:44 So the saying of the Takbir al-Tahrima is very very important. 30:48 You must say the Takbir al-Tahrima. 30:49 Allahu Akbar. 30:50 You must say it. 30:52 Right? 30:53 And then now, you're raising the hands. 30:55 Once you raise the hands, now you're going to drop the hands and you're going to fold it. 31:01 So, the place to fold the hands, the place to fold the hands is just below the navel. 31:12 Where the navel is, just below the navel, is where you're going to fold the hands. 31:17 The manner of folding the hands, your thumb, baby finger, is going to make a ring around the wrist of the left hand. 31:27 So the right hand, the thumb and the small finger, is going to go around the left hand. 31:32 These three fingers, the remaining three fingers are going to be on the top. 31:36 This hand is going to get hidden behind the right hand. 31:40 The fingers of the left hand are going to be hidden behind the right hand. 31:44 So you're going to look something like this. 31:48 And it must not be a casual. 31:51 It must be when you're holding your hands. 31:56 This helps in concentration also. 32:00 Helps in concentration when you're holding your hand there. 32:02 When you're conscious that your hand is being held there. 32:05 It helps in concentration. 32:08 So just slightly below the navel. 32:10 Your small finger and thumb. 32:14 They may not go all the way. 32:17 But they will go over the wrist of the left hand. 32:20 Fingers of the left hand behind the right hand. 32:23 These three fingers on the top. 32:25 This is how you will fold your hands. 32:28 So this will remain throughout the Qiyam. 32:33 You will read your Surah Al-Fatiha, whatever the Qirat is, etc. 32:37 And now from here, we're going into Ruku. 32:42 So from this posture, we're obviously going to untie our hands now. 32:47 And we're going to go into Ruku. 32:49 So Ruku. 32:51 Is the posture where your fingers must be spread out. 32:55 Right? 32:56 And we want to grasp the knee. 32:59 So we don't want to just touch. 33:00 Now this is for the men. 33:02 Women, their postures are different. 33:05 We don't want to just touch the knees. 33:07 We want to grasp the knees. 33:08 Right? 33:09 So the hands are going to look something like this. 33:14 With regards to the knees. 33:18 Some time back, Mufti Ayub Jina is currently living in Madinah Manwara. 33:26 So, he had explained that both are sabit. 33:32 Either to bend the knees slightly or to keep the knees straight. 33:39 Whichever one helps you to get your back straight. 33:43 But what he also mentioned is that if you're bending your knees, then it means that your elbows will also bend slightly. 33:53 And if you're keeping the knees straight, then your elbows also will stay straight. 33:57 Right? 33:58 So, some of these can check up and let us know, but this was Mufti Ayyub Jinnah Sahib's tahqiq that both are fine, whether you're bending your knees or keeping them straight. 34:11 I know our Asadizat that studied in Hardoi. 34:15 They used to tell us to bend the knees. 34:18 And then other Asadizat used to say must keep the knees straight. 34:20 That's why we had this discussion with K.U. 34:22 because our class started. 34:24 One time when our class was together. 34:26 So we had this discussion with him. 34:28 And then he explained that no both are fine. 34:32 You see which one you can get your back more straight. 34:36 So the thing you grasp the knees. 34:39 You're trying to get the back straight and your head in line with your back. 34:46 Whether mine is straight or not, I don't know. 34:48 I can't see it. 34:49 So we must get somebody to assist us, somebody to help us. 34:54 And you're grasping your knees. 34:56 So if you're bending your knees, then your elbows will be slightly bent. 35:00 If you're keeping it straight, then obviously your elbows will naturally go straight. 35:04 Dua. 35:04 Dua. 35:04 Dua. 35:04 Dua. 35:23 Everybody's shape of the body also is different. 35:27 Some people have a bit of a curve in the spine. 35:31 Naturally the back is curved like that. 35:33 How are you going to get it straight? 35:35 But you try to the best of your ability to try and get as straight as possible. 35:41 So that is the posture in ruku. 35:43 From ruku now, from this posture, we're coming up. 35:46 Sami'allahu li manhamidah. 35:48 We come back into a standing posture. 35:51 So the important thing is that we must come back into a standing posture. 35:57 It mustn't just be coming up three quarter way and then going down. 36:02 No. 36:02 We must come into a standing posture. 36:05 The limbs, the muscles must relax in this posture. 36:10 Then that posture is complete. 36:13 From there now we're going into Sajda. 36:17 So when we're making Sajda, 36:21 When we're going to make sajda. 36:28 So, from this standing posture, right? 36:32 We're going to try and come down as straight as possible. 36:35 Now, the young people, mashallah, they like, you know, they're still fit and everything. 36:40 As you get older sometime now, you can't, you know, but you try your best. 36:45 You don't want to make two rukus. 36:47 You want to come down straight. 36:49 You're coming down from the standing posture. 36:51 So you're bending your knees. 36:54 You're not bending your back. 36:56 From the standing posture, you're bending your knees and you're going down. 37:00 You're not doing this. 37:02 You're bending your knees. 37:03 Your knees are bending. 37:04 You go down. 37:05 So the first thing that's going to touch the ground is your knees. 37:09 The knees are going to touch the ground first. 37:12 After the knees have touched the ground, now your palms are going to go. 37:16 Second, the palms are going to go on the ground. 37:19 In the meanwhile, your feet. 37:23 So the feet must be planted in the ground. 37:29 Mustn't be above the ground. 37:31 The toes must be on the ground. 37:34 Don't let it be above the ground. 37:37 Mufti Sahib from Centre Masjid 37:40 So we asked him this question that in sajdah must your feet be together or apart? 37:54 So he said both are fine. 37:58 In namaz you must have less movement. 38:02 So some ulama say why you must bring it together and move it apart. 38:06 Just leave it where it is. 38:09 And other ulama of the opinion that it is better that you bring your feet together. 38:13 So I don't know what is Muqtaz among the Muftis. 38:18 But that's what Muftis have explained. 38:20 So we came down on our knees. 38:23 At this point our feet are vertical. 38:27 Our toes are planted in the ground. 38:30 And now we are going to put our palms down. 38:35 So we want to go that much forward. 38:40 Not so much that is going to make us uncomfortable. 38:44 At the same time we don't want to be so close that now our forearms are going to be on the ground or we are going to be closed up. 38:55 So we want to leave so much of gap that a baby goat can go under us. 39:00 Right? 39:00 Just to understand. 39:03 Today now they say what size is a baby goat because we don't see baby goats. 39:08 So now from here we're going down. 39:11 Right? 39:12 So here in the Sajda the fingers they will be close. 39:18 The fingers will be close facing in the direction of the Tibla. 39:24 So the fingers will be closed like this. 39:27 Where these two thumbs are, in between the thumbs now, I want to put my nose and then my forehead. 39:36 The nose first, then the forehead. 39:39 So you'll notice that my hands are away from my body. 39:43 Eyes are away from the stomach. 39:47 When we're reading Salah with Jamaat, then we can't do this. 39:52 The hands will have to be closer to the body, otherwise the people on our right and left, they won't be able to make sense now. 39:59 But when we're reading namaz as a munfarid, we are on our own in this space, then our hands must be away from the body. 40:09 But the thighs being away from the stomach, that we can do even in jamaat also. 40:14 The thighs must be away from the stomach. 40:17 So just to look at it one more time. 40:20 So from the standing posture, we're going to bend our knees. 40:23 Going down with the knees. 40:26 Palms. 40:28 Nose. 40:29 Forehead. 40:30 Right? 40:31 Feet are planted in the ground. 40:34 Coming up is the reverse. 40:37 Forehead. 40:39 Nose. 40:41 Palms. 40:42 Now you're either coming into a sitting posture or you're going into a standing posture. 40:47 Right? 40:48 If we're going into a sitting posture, like we're going to sit in Jalsa between the two Sajdas, or we're sitting in Kaada, or Tashahud, etc. 41:01 In the sitting posture, the fingers will be normal. 41:08 They won't be tight. 41:09 They won't be spread out. 41:11 They'll be normal. 41:13 They must be at the edge, but not over the cliff. 41:18 Be at the edge, not over the turf. 41:21 Don't go over your knee. 41:22 It must be here at the edge. 41:24 Turn around. 41:28 So your fingers will be here. 41:31 Won't go over your knees. 41:33 They'll be here. 41:34 And they'll be normal. 41:37 The feet. 41:38 The feet have to be like this. 41:41 The right foot is vertical. 41:45 Toes are planted in the ground. 41:48 The left foot is horizontal. 41:50 That's what we're sitting on. 41:51 I said this for the men, right? 41:53 Women, they sit differently. 41:55 So this is how the feet will be and this is how the hands will be. 42:04 Now, the other thing is when we're reading our Tashahud. 42:13 So when we're reading Tashahud, so when we come to Ashadu, 42:19 Then we raise our Shahadat finger. 42:22 So we make a ring with the middle finger and the thumb. 42:30 So the fingers are all like this. 42:31 So you say Ashadu. 42:33 We raise this index finger. 42:35 Shahadat finger. 42:38 The middle finger and the thumb form a ring. 42:42 Ashadu an la ilaha illallah. 42:44 Right? 42:45 At illallah we will drop it. 42:48 But the ulama mentioned that there will be a small gap. 42:51 You don't drop it right down. 42:53 The shahadat finger doesn't touch the leg again. 42:56 A slight gap. 42:58 So it's slightly raised. 43:00 Right? 43:03 And then it will remain like that until we finish our salah. 43:08 Right? 43:09 So we'll read our Durr-e Ibrahim. 43:11 Our dua if we are in our qaada akhira. 43:15 And then we make salam. 43:17 Now when it comes to salam, the head is in the center, right? 43:23 Head is in the center. 43:25 Salam, you are only turning your neck. 43:28 You're turning your neck. 43:31 So from the center here, Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 43:36 How much must we turn? 43:40 That much where the person behind you can see this part of your cheek. 43:48 So there's no need to turn this much. 43:53 At the same time, it's not that. 43:57 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 44:01 The person in the back can see this. 44:04 That much you can. 44:04 The person can just see the beginning of your cheek. 44:07 Right? 44:09 So from here you went Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 44:13 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 44:18 Namaz is finished. 44:20 So there is no need for this. 44:24 Yes. 44:25 People do this. 44:27 They put, they tuck the chin in. 44:31 Then they pick the head up. 44:33 They tuck the chin in again by the shoulder. 44:36 Come back here. 44:37 Do that. 44:38 There's no need for all of that. 44:40 No need to turn around so much. 44:42 No need for all that. 44:43 It's just as simple. 44:44 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 44:47 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah. 44:52 And namaz is finished. 44:56 Dua after salah. 45:00 Dua after Salah is not part of the Salah. 45:06 Some people, if an Imam don't make the dua after namaz, Qayamat come, where the trustees may fire him. 45:14 Because that thing is like so ingrained that you have to make the dua, right? 45:19 So definitely to make dua after namaz, that is a Mubarak time, duas are accepted at that time. 45:27 But say for example, a person needed to go away. 45:32 So he didn't commit any guna. 45:35 He didn't commit any guna. 45:38 Raising the hands to make dua. 45:42 That too is a whole bahas. 45:44 Now sometimes these little little things, we make it into a big discussion. 45:49 There is established that Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam did raise his hands and make dua. 45:56 At different times. 45:59 And maybe most, we will find that after Salah, he didn't raise his hands. 46:05 He didn't raise his hands and make dua. 46:07 If somebody is raising their hand, it's fine. 46:10 Somebody is not raising their hand, that is also fine. 46:13 The person who raised his hand, he didn't commit a guna. 46:16 The person who didn't raise his hand, he is closer, maybe closer to what is coming in the hadith. 46:22 So he is not doing anything wrong. 46:23 Right? 46:26 The main thing is, if we are raising our hand, we mustn't consider that to be now a must. 46:34 When that happens, then it becomes a problem now. 46:37 That if somebody is not raising their hand, you don't even pick up your hand to make dua. 46:42 That's where the problem comes in. 46:45 So with regards to dua, although dua is not part of the namaz, as I said, it's not part of the salah. 46:52 So if you, say for example, 46:54 You picked up your hand to make dua. 46:57 If you did. 46:58 Right? 46:58 The Imam is making dua. 46:59 You picked up your hand to make dua. 47:02 The Imam is making a bit of a longer dua. 47:04 And you want to conclude your dua. 47:07 You can conclude your... You don't have to wait for him. 47:10 It's not like namaz. 47:11 Namaz you got to move with the Imam. 47:16 The Imam is leading you. 47:18 You can't move before him. 47:21 And you mustn't delay after him. 47:23 What that means? 47:25 The Imam, he is still in the standing posture. 47:28 You know now he is going to go into ruku. 47:31 You don't start going into ruku before he doesn't start going into ruku. 47:37 When he starts going into ruku, you start going into ruku. 47:40 You don't go before him. 47:42 And then what happens sometimes? 47:47 Maybe you are a bit of a slower reader. 47:49 Right? 47:50 So by the time you are reading three times SubhanAllah. 47:54 The Imam finished reading. 47:56 Now maybe you only read two times. 47:58 The Imam said, Sami'Allahulimanhamida. 48:02 Our duty at that time is to wake up. 48:06 To move with the Imam. 48:08 Now you find many people, they stay there to finish the third time. 48:12 Some people stay quite long. 48:13 I don't know how many times they read it. 48:18 Maybe it's ignorance. 48:19 They don't know. 48:20 Right? 48:21 And some older people, you can't even try to educate them. 48:24 They get very angry. 48:26 But somebody has to educate them. 48:28 So, even in Sajdah, the Imam came up from the Sajdah. 48:32 You didn't finish your three times. 48:34 SubhanAllah. 48:36 Our duty is to move with the Imam. 48:38 When he is moving, we move. 48:40 Our namaz is subject to his namaz. 48:43 Right? 48:44 So we must follow the Imam. 48:46 But now the dua is not part of the namaz. 48:50 So we don't have to wait. 48:52 Say for example, after Asr we are making our tazbih al-Fatihah. 48:55 Right? 48:56 After Fajr, after Asr. 48:57 Now maybe the Imam is taking a little bit long. 49:00 Now I finish my tazbih al-Fatihah. 49:01 I want to start making my dua. 49:03 I am at liberty to do so. 49:05 I don't have to wait. 49:06 Only when he picks up his hand, then only I can pick up my hand. 49:09 And when he finishes, I have to finish. 49:12 No. 49:13 If he finished his dua and I still want to make dua, I can continue with my duas. 49:19 If he is still making dua and I want to end my dua, I can end my dua. 49:24 I don't have to follow him in the dua also because the dua is not part of the Salah. 49:39 So when the Imam will make the Tasmi'ah, he will say, Sami'allahu ni man hamidah. 49:46 We must then say Rabbana wa laka alhamd or Allahumma Rabbana laka alhamd. 49:55 Or if a person is reading on his own he can read the longer Tahmids if he knows them. 50:01 Rabbana laka alhamd. 50:02 Hamdan kathiran tayyiban mubarakan feeh. 50:06 Those are all different lengthier tahmeeds, right? 50:16 In fact, Shaykhul Hadith Muhafizur Rahman Sahib, he always emphasizes on this. 50:23 Hanafi is supposed to be reading Hamdan kateeran tayyiban mubarakan kayyib. 50:27 Especially Ahnaf. 50:28 So we should be reading that Taqwa. 50:30 He always mentions this. 50:32 But me now in madrasah, our level is maktab level. 50:37 They taught us. 50:39 The other thing is, one riwayat is Allahumma Rabbana lakalham. 50:48 One riwayat is Rabbana walakalham. 50:52 There is no Allahumma Rabbana walakalham. 50:57 It's either Allahumma Rabbana lakalham. 51:00 Or Rabbana walakalham. 51:03 There's no Allahumma Rabbana walakalham. 51:06 And if you tell the maktab child that. 51:08 My father told me. 51:09 It's like the dua after eating. 51:13 Alhamdulillah. 51:14 There is no minal. 51:15 But in all the maktab kitab there is minal. 51:22 You don't make a big issue about it. 51:24 There is no problem with the person read Minal. 51:26 But what is closer to the Rewayat is there is no Minal. 51:30 Minal is not there. 51:32 But now, we've been taught like that with the Minal. 51:35 You tell that Maktab Chahid. 51:37 Ma'apa taught me that. 51:38 Why are you coming and telling me there is no Minal there? 51:41 We learned Minal Muslimin. 51:43 Fajr Hawala. 51:44 My Zururul Muslimin. 51:46 What is Zururul Muslimin? 51:47 Tasheelul Fiqh. 51:48 Dua. 51:49 Kitab. 51:50 What is Hawala? 51:51 Sorry. 52:01 You must try not to let the feet come off the ground. 52:04 Right? 52:06 Because Muqtaba can correct us here. 52:08 If the feet are off the ground for the entire duration of the sajda, then what? 52:18 Namaz will break. 52:20 If your feet are off the ground for the entire duration of the sajda, the namaz breaks. 52:28 If it just came off slightly, that won't break your namaz. 52:31 We must try to be conscious that we plant it into the ground. 52:35 It mustn't come up. 52:36 It must be there for the entire duration. 52:38 If it just came up like that for a short while, that won't break the namaz. 52:43 You see people doing namaz and their feet is off the ground. 52:46 All success. 52:48 Namaz broke. 52:58 Ji. 52:58 Ji. 52:59 You can read. 53:00 Yeah. 53:00 You can read. 53:01 Your duas all you read. 53:02 The only thing, your tasbihat you read and your duas you read. 53:06 The only thing you don't make is qira. 53:09 For Ahnaf. 53:10 Ahnaf is you don't make qira. 53:12 So, 53:14 The Surah Al-Fatiha and the Surah that the Imam will read. 53:20 We won't make no Qiraat behind the Imam. 53:23 When we're reading behind the Imam, we won't make no Qiraat. 53:26 But all the duas, all the tasbihat that we must make, we must read it. 53:31 But if, as I said earlier, if we never finish and he finished, we move with him. 53:38 We don't worry about us. 53:39 We move with him. 53:42 No, no. 53:43 Okay. 53:51 So, when it comes to Faraz Namaz, 53:57 We're reading in Jama'at. 53:59 So there the Imam must stick to the bare minimum. 54:04 Because in the Majma you've got old people, you've got young people, you've got sick people, you've got somebody who's got some commitments, whatever. 54:11 So you must keep the namaz light. 54:14 But when we're reading on our own, then you can read 54:19 Whatever duas in your Sunnat-e-Mu'akkadah, Ghir-Mu'akkadah, Nafl, Namaz, you can add on. 54:26 Instead of reading three times SubhanAllah Rabbi al-Azim, you can read eleven times or however many times. 54:32 If you want to read Rabbanaz, any duas from the Quran Sharif, you can read them in your Namaz, no problem at all. 54:45 Sunnat-e-Mu'akkadah, Sunnat-e-Ghir-Mu'akkadah and Nafl, you can read. 54:50 All the duas. 54:50 No problem. 55:01 Whatever you want to do. 55:03 You can finish your tasbih and then make dua. 55:07 You can finish your tasbih and don't make no dua. 55:10 It's no problem. 55:11 Dua is not like a like a must. 55:15 No part and parcel of the salah or something. 55:18 If you want to join the Imam in the dua and later on finish your tasbih, no problem. 55:31 Very important. 55:44 So, we mention in the Hadith that you must not make sajda like the sitting of a dog. 55:51 That means this forearms are on the ground. 55:54 The forearms must be above the ground. 55:56 The only difference is when we're reading in Jamaat, the forearms will be close to the body. 56:04 But when you're reading on your own, it will be separate from the body. 56:07 But at all times it must be off the ground. 56:10 It mustn't touch the ground. 56:13 You know, today nobody wants to be told. 56:27 So you, it's our duty to tell the person nicely. 56:32 But now if he's becoming a tofani, make sanam and walk away. 56:37 It's our duty to bring it to his attention. 56:41 In the old days, all the masajid, in the back, if there was one, closet for the jubbas. 56:50 And all colours. 56:52 Every colour jubba, you know. 56:54 Then slowly people got more worried about aesthetics and all that. 56:59 So now they started showing jubbas of one colour, you know. 57:03 Then they, I'm not going to wear the jubba, that's for a walk. 57:06 So now they started making sleeves. 57:08 And people were coming with their own sleeves. 57:11 And then slowly that thing... 57:15 But now more people are wearing kurta also, so it's a good thing. 57:18 But this is a very common thing. 57:20 A person is wearing. 57:23 And sometimes he is embarrassing. 57:26 The amount that gets exposed. 57:30 Amount. 57:30 A person's pants going down. 57:32 All that he is showing. 57:34 And he is carrying on with these namaz. 57:37 Namaz is broken. 57:39 Namaz is broken. 57:41 Namaz is broken. 57:45 On your nose. 57:49 In sajda or in jalsa. 57:51 In jalsa you look down to where you're going to make sajda. 57:54 Some say you look in your lap also. 57:59 In a standing posture you look at the place of your sajda. 58:03 In the ruku you look at your toes. 58:06 Sajda you look at your nose. 58:07 As long as you don't pose. 58:23 One thing that can invalidate namaz is amal-e-kasir. 58:28 When a person is doing such actions in the namaz and an onlooker looks at him and thinks he's not in namaz. 58:36 He's doing it for a duration of like three Subhanallahs and his namaz is broken. 58:45 Besides that, I don't know. 58:48 If he turns his chest away, turns his chest away from the Qibla, that will break the namaz. 59:05 Yeah, it's wrong. 59:07 The place to pray to fold it is here. 59:10 Put your nahana fi mazhab now. 59:12 Put your fingers as we demonstrated. 59:16 That's how you're supposed to fold. 59:17 Now people doing this and there. 59:20 Most of the time it's either jahalat or ghaflat. 59:25 We see it with the students. 59:27 The student is making the posture wrong. 59:31 After namaz, you call him. 59:33 How do you make this posture? 59:35 He'll make it perfectly. 59:37 While he's reading namaz, he's in a rough land. 59:39 He's in a rough land while he's reading. 59:41 Mursi Sahib in those days, he sent a masjid. 59:46 He used to make us make practicals. 59:49 He'll walk with a stick. 59:52 One person was making imamat. 59:54 The other person was following. 59:57 He gave off the stick. 59:58 Anybody's posture is wrong, you're correcting it. 1:00:02 You're worried about that stick. 1:00:04 That stick brought that awareness in the namaz. 1:00:07 Be careful. 1:00:08 I'm not saying you must hit the people. 1:00:10 Don't hit the people. 1:00:12 That time was hiding. 1:00:16 This is zaman of hiding. 1:00:18 Now if you hit somebody, the ustad has to go into hiding. 1:00:23 It's gone like that. 1:00:24 This one's Ramadan. 1:00:26 So, when a person comes to, he's late for namaz, 1:00:51 Either he is coming in the first rakaat or further on in the salah. 1:00:57 So when he comes, he would have to make his takbir a tahreema. 1:01:00 He must fold his hands. 1:01:03 In other words, he has to spend at least a second in a standing posture before he can go into his ruku. 1:01:15 So if he did that, he did have some qiyam. 1:01:19 And then he went into the ruku and he caught the imam in the ruku. 1:01:24 Then he got the rakat. 1:01:26 But if he did that and he is thinking he is not going to the ruku and the imam is already coming up from the ruku then he didn't get the rakat. 1:01:35 He will have to repeat that rakat. 1:01:36 He will have to stand up as a muslim. 1:01:38 Finish that rakat. 1:01:44 Read the 1:01:48 Sana. 1:01:49 If you've got time, you must read it. 1:01:53 Yeah, you must read the Sana. 1:01:55 So, the elbows must be covered. 1:02:11 If the elbows are exposed, then there is Karaahat. 1:02:16 So if the sleeves are so short that the elbows are exposed, then there is Karaah. 1:02:22 If the elbows are covered, then there is no problem. 1:02:26 So you get some of these short kurtas, very short. 1:02:29 And when you get some, they come to about like here. 1:02:32 As long as when the person is making his takbir, his tahreema and all that, his elbows are not getting uncovered, then that will be fine. 1:02:40 But that very short one where the elbows are exposed, today is Qarahat. 1:02:45 To read namaz like that. 1:02:49 Makruh. 1:02:50 Disliked. 1:02:51 Disliked. 1:02:57 SubhanAllahi wa bihamdihi. 1:03:01 Subhanakallahumma wa bihamdihi. 1:03:03 Nashadu an la ilaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa natubu bih. 1:03:09 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
Folding Hands in Qiyam: Raise hands near the earlobes with palms facing Qibla, then place hands just below the navel, encircling the left wrist with the right thumb and pinky.
Posture in Ruku and Sajda: In Ruku, grasp the knees firmly with spread fingers and keep the back straight. In Sajda, lower knees first, then palms, nose, and forehead, keeping forearms elevated off the ground.
Following the Imam: Move promptly with the Imam when transitioning between postures; do not precede the Imam or linger behind after the Imam moves.
