The Fruits Of Knowledge

1 Benefit a day (Day 14): Jumu'ah is most people's favourite day of the week; the evil doers yearn for it to satisfy their desires, whereas the good doers long for it to please The Almighty __ The following is an abridged translation of a benefit transmitted by Sheikh Faysal Al-Hashidi hafidhahullah ---------------- Do you want the reward of fasting & praying hundreds of years in just a few minutes?! If so, read the greatest authentic hadith on the virtues of deeds; a hadeeth which the people of knowledge said about it: “We do not know a hadith of the Prophet ﷺ more rewarding than this hadith.” Imam At-Tirmidhi rahimahullah said: “Some of the Imams said, we have not heard a Saheeh Hadeeth in the Shari’ah that includes such a reward.” [Tuhfatul Ahwadhi (3/5)] Ibnul Hajar Al-Haythami rahimahullah said: “It was said there is nothing authentic in the Sunnah than contains more reward than this, so let one pay attention to it.” [Tuhfat al-Muhtaaj (2/471)] Here's the Hadeeth: On the authority of Aws ibn Aws Ath-Thaqafi (radhiyallahu anhu) who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: «مَنْ غَسَلَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَاغْتَسَلَ، ثُمَّ بَكَّرَ وَابْتَكَرَ، وَمَشَى وَلَمْ يَرْكَبْ، وَدَنَا مِنَ الْإِمَامِ فَاسْتَمَعَ وَلَمْ يَلْغُ كَانَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ عَمَلُ سَنَةٍ أَجْرُ صِيَامِهَا وَقِيَامِهَا» “Whoever takes a complete bath on Friday then goes very early to the Khutbah, walking and not riding, sits close to the Imam, listens and does not speak or keep himself busy then for every is the reward equivalent to a year of fasting and praying.” [Collected by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi; authenticated by Sheikh Albani in Saheeh Al-Jaami' As-Sagheer' no. 6405] Did you pay attention to the hadeeth❓ ▪️Every step on your way to the masjid to perform Friday prayer is equivalent to the reward of a year of fasting and praying! ▪️One step equals fasting and praying for 365 days! ▪️So if there are 100 steps between you and the masjid, it is as if you fasted and stood for 100 years, and the more steps you take the number of years increases But this reward is subject to five conditions: 1⃣- Taking a full BATH 2⃣- Going to the masjid EARLY 3⃣- WALKING to the masjid 4⃣- Sitting CLOSE to the Khateeb 5⃣- Listening to the Khutbah in SILENCE ... This is from the grace of Allah upon us that He has made this relatively easy act of worship carry such a great reward and made it recurring every week so that every Muslim is able to realise it.

One Benefit a day (Day 5) Is one considered a show-off for beautifying their voice when reciting in front of people? Sheikh Uthaymīn, may Allāh have mercy on him, said: On the authority of Abū Mūsā Al-Ash'arī -may Allāh be pleased with him- that: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) said to me, 'If you were to see me, as I was listening to your recitation [of the Qur'ān] last night [you would have been delighted]. You are in fact endowed with a sweet voice like that of [Prophet] Dāwūd himself." I said: O Messenger of Allāh, had I been aware of your presence, I would have beautified it even more. In this is evidence that - if a person beautifies their voice while reciting Qur'ān for others to enjoy and take delight in listening to it, then that is okay, and it is not considered showing off. In fact, this (i.e. beautifying the voice) is what attracts [people] to listen to the Words of Allāh the Almighty, so much so that they find delight in that. 📚 [Sharḥ Riyāḍh Aṣ-Ṣālihīn (4/662)]

Having The Pre-Dawn Meal (As-Suhuur) As Late As Possible [The Sunnah Of Fasting]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Breaking The Fast As Soon As The Sun Sets [The Sunnah Of Fasting] Sa’eed Ibnul-Musayyib, may Allaah have mercy upon him, reports from his father, “I was once sitting with ʿUmar when a group of people arrived from Ash-Shaam. ʿUmar enquired about them and how they were; he asked, ‘Do the people of Ash-Shaam hasten to break the fast.’ He said, ‘Yes.’ [ʿUmar] said, ‘They will not cease to remain upon good as long as they do this, and do not wait for the stars [to come out] as the people of Iraaq do.’” [ʿAbdur-Razzaaq As-San’aanee, Al-Musannaf, 4:225] ‘Amr Ibn Maymuun Al-Awdee, may Allaah have mercy upon him, reports, “The Companions of Muḥammad – Allaah's peace and blessings be upon him – used to be the quickest to break the fast and the slowest in taking the pre-dawn meal.” [ʿAbdur-Razzaaq As-San’aanee, Al-Musannaf, Pg. 226] Ibnul-Musayyib, may Allaah have mercy upon him, also reports that ʿUmar wrote to the commanders of the various regions, ‘Do not be of the procrastinators when breaking the fast, and nor of those who wait for the stars before they start praying [al-maghrib].’ [ʿAbdur-Razzaaq As-San’aanee, Al-Musannaf, Pg. 225] Muusaa Ibn Anas, may Allaah have mercy upon him, reports that Anas [Ibn Maalik] used to have his slave-girl go to the top of his house, instructing her, ‘When the horizon becomes even (evenly lit, marking sunset), tell me.’ [Ibn Abee Shaybah, Al-Musannaf, 2:430] Abuu At-Tiyaah Ad-Daba’ee, may Allaah have mercy upon him, reports that “he used to break fast with Ibn ‘Abbaas during Ramadhaan. When evening approached he would send a girl from his household to the roof [to look out], and when the sun set he would make the call to prayer (athaan). He would eat with us, and when he had finished, the call for the commencement of prayer {iqaamah) would be given, and he would pray, and we would pray with him.” [Ibn Abee Shaybah, Al-Musannaf, Pg. 429] Join the telegram channel: t.me/FruitsOfKnowledge

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Having The Pre-Dawn Meal (As-Suhuur) As Late As Possible [The Sunnah Of Fasting] Saleem Ibn ‘Ubayd, may Allaah have mercy upon him, reported, “I used to stay in the house of Abuu Bakr. One night, he prayed for as long as Allaah willed him to. He then said [to me], ‘Go and see if al-fajr has started,’ so I went, returned and said, ‘Whiteness has risen in the sky.’ So he prayed for as long as Allaah willed, then said [again], ‘Go and see if al-fajr has started.’ I went out, returned and said, ‘[The light] is spreading out and becoming reddish,’ to which he said, ‘Now bring me my drink (i.e. my pre-dawn meal, as-suhuur).’” [Al-Daaraqutnee, As-Sunan 2:166.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Breaking The Fast With An Odd Number Of Dates - Is It A Sunnah? Hadeeth 1) Abu Ya'alaa reported in his Musnad (3305) from the Hadeeth of Anas Ibn Maalik - may Allaah be pleased with him - that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - used to like to break his fast with three dates or something which was not cooked. Note: In the chain of narration of the Hadeeth is 'Abdul-Waahid Ibn Thaabit. Al-Bukhaaree said about him ‘Munkar Al-Ahaadeeth’ (his narrations are rejected). Al-Imaam Al-Albaanee also declared the Hadeeth extremely weak in 'As-Silsilah Adh-Dha'eefah', Hadeeth No. 966. Hadeeth 2) Abuu Bakr Ash-Shaafi'ee reported in his 'Fawaaid (1/105)', from Jaabir - may Allaah be pleased with him - that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - used to like to break his fast on fresh dates so long as they were there, and upon dried dates if there were no fresh dates. And he would (also have dates) after a meal and would eat them in odds; three or five or seven. Note: In the chain of narration there is Al-Faraazee, who is Muhammad Ibn 'Ubaydillaah. Al-Imaam Ahmad said about him 'the people (of Hadeeth) abandoned his narrations.' Al-Imaam Al-Albaanee declared the Hadeeth also extremely weak in his book 'As-Silsilah Adh-Dha'eefah', Hadeeth No. 1749. The noble Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-'Uthaymeen - may Allaah have mercy upon him - was asked: I have heard that the fasting person at the time he breaks his fast must break his fast with an odd number of dates i.e. five or seven dates and so on. So, is this an obligation? He responded: This is not an obligation, in fact it is not a Sunnah for a person to break their fast with an odd number; three, five, seven, nine except on the day of ‘Eid, ‘Eidul-Fitr. For it is established that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - never proceeded for the prayer on the day of ‘Eidul-Fitr unless he had eaten some dates. He would eat an odd number of dates, and besides this, then indeed the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - did not used to intend that his eating of dates be in odd numbers.
