00:00:08.440 What I'm about to say is not made up.
00:00:10.180 Praying one Salah right here is the equivalent to a hundred thousand. 0.99
00:00:14.640 Just a hundred pounds can teach up to ten people how to pray Salah.
00:00:18.400 We aren't saying we bring people to Umrah,
00:00:20.440 but we teach brothers and sisters like Khaled how to pray Salah.
00:00:24.000 And praise all their Salah for four days.
00:00:25.840 Praise their Janazah, praise their Jummah, praise their Tahajr, 0.75

00:00:41.640 Okay, Asalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Barakatuhu,
00:00:43.780 brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:45.260 So there is a common question or a common shubhaat that a lot of Muslims have,
00:00:50.160 which is very simply, and let's get straight to the point, inshallah,
00:00:53.020 is that does not praying invalidate your fast?
00:00:57.940 That is a question, inshallah.
00:00:58.980 I'm going to give you the mic.
00:00:59.540 Alhamdulillah, wa salatu wa salamu ala rasulullah wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa mawala.
00:01:03.820 Now, this question that we know that many people, they just come forward to answer by, you know,
00:01:12.460 yes, it's valid.
00:01:13.420 The one who doesn't pray, their fasting is valid. 0.79
00:01:17.020 And someone put themselves as well forward to say, no, the one who is not fasting is invalid.
00:01:22.040 And both sides, they have kind of a point, but we need to understand these things is not yes and no question.
00:01:27.580 We need to understand the fundamentals behind it.
00:01:31.080 We need to know is the salah is a condition for the one, for the validity of the fasting or not.
00:01:38.900 That's a key thing.
00:01:40.180 Because if we say fasting will be invalid if the person doesn't pray, that means the salah is a condition for fasting.
00:01:49.180 And that's why we need to understand where this principle came from and what's the root of this principle.
00:01:54.840 Now, this goes back to the point where if the salah now is a, if the salah, if the one who leaves the salah is a Muslim or not a Muslim,
00:02:04.320 and that matter is debated by scholars of Islam.
00:02:07.440 Now, I will present certain hadith that the first hadith that the Prophet ï·º, he says,
00:02:12.580 There is nothing between the person and the shirk or kufr or disbelief, except living the salah. 1.00
00:02:22.960 Whoever left the salah is a committed a kufr. 1.00
00:02:26.500 And as well, he said,
00:02:27.620 The salah is like a covenant between us and them.
00:02:36.540 Whoever left the salah, abandoned the salah, is a committed a kufr. 1.00
00:02:40.120 And that's why we'll find some of the salaf, some of the sahaba and the salaf, and the tabi'een, generally the tabi'een and the salaf, generally.
00:02:50.400 And there is a statement by Imam Ahmed, rahimahullah, that the one who leaves the salah,
00:02:54.760 whether he leaves the salah out of laziness, whether he leaves the salah out of whatever reason he leaves the salah,
00:03:01.380 is a kufr, is out of the fault of Islam. 0.97
00:03:02.960 Now, if the person believes, if the person believes, and these scholars, respected scholars,
00:03:09.060 and there are many as well, scholars of Islam believe this, including there are statements by Shaykh al-Islam in Taymiyyah,
00:03:14.140 by Ibn al-Qayyim, rahimahullah.
00:03:15.500 And there is Ibn al-Qayyim, rahimahullah, he was talking about even this particular case.
00:03:18.980 And he says, as well, talking about the one that even the one he, even Salat al-Asr, as it was mentioned,
00:03:26.460 that all his actions nullified.
00:03:29.900 That shows he's been all his, all the actions have been nullified.
00:03:32.260 Now, there are the other side.
00:03:35.180 So that's an opinion you say?
00:03:36.740 That is an opinion.
00:03:38.160 Okay.
00:03:38.680 Which believes the one who leaves the salah is a kafir. 1.00
00:03:40.700 And all his actions is invalid, because he's a kafir. 1.00
00:03:44.020 Now, the question is, does that apply to the, what about the other ahadith?
00:03:48.080 And now we'll come to this ahadith.
00:03:49.660 The first ahadith which I'll be bringing, is the ahadith of the Prophet ï·º, 0.80
00:03:53.480 where he stated,
00:03:55.460 that the first thing that the person will be questioning in the Day of Judgment is his prayer.
00:04:05.960 Then if his salah is correct, then he's going to be amongst the successful ones. 0.93
00:04:11.720 If there is some deficiency in that salah,
00:04:14.800 then Allah will say to the angel, see if my servant has involuntary deeds.
00:04:20.440 And these voluntary deeds will be replaced with the,
00:04:24.400 which is like the voluntary prayer,
00:04:26.300 will be replaced with the deficiency that he has missed.
00:04:28.820 And it will be done with all of his other obligations in Islam. 0.97
00:04:32.540 Now, that ahadith that shows the one who leaves sometimes the salah here and there,
00:04:36.140 or he has deficiency in his salah,
00:04:37.900 we say there is no making up for the one who deliberately leaves the salah.
00:04:40.640 There is no making up for that salah. 1.00
00:04:42.400 But we will say to the person to do more voluntary deeds.
00:04:44.980 That's why we say, you know,
00:04:46.460 that if the person left one salah or two salah in his life,
00:04:48.680 we don't say that you could do qadah.
00:04:50.680 There is no qadah if you deliberately lift the salah.
00:04:53.020 You have to go back to do more voluntary deeds,
00:04:56.400 and to do more of the voluntary prayer,
00:04:58.200 in order to replace the salah that you missed.
00:05:00.400 Maybe Allah will replace it in the Day of Judgment, 1.00
00:05:02.600 to gain forgiveness from Allah.
00:05:04.040 So that's why to say, to do, to tawbah to Allah, 0.90
00:05:06.940 to repent to Allah,
00:05:07.640 and to do istighfar, to do islah, to rectify,
00:05:11.420 and to follow the evil deeds with righteous deeds,
00:05:13.400 and that includes the voluntary prayer.
00:05:14.700 Now, another hadith that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
00:05:17.860 which he says, alayhi salatu wa sallam,
00:05:20.860 that in the Day of Judgment,
00:05:22.680 a person will be brought to Allah t'baraka wa ta'ala, 0.88
00:05:25.220 and then Allah will ask him,
00:05:27.460 and then he has 99 scrolls,
00:05:29.400 99 scrolls of evil deeds.
00:05:31.320 99, not one, 99.
00:05:33.160 And each scroll, as far as his sight could see,
00:05:36.220 in the Day of Judgment,
00:05:37.180 all the way to the end,
00:05:38.880 and not one, 99 of them.
00:05:40.540 All evil deeds.
00:05:41.540 Then Allah will say to the person,
00:05:43.420 do you have any good deeds?
00:05:45.260 Then he will say,
00:05:45.880 no, Allah, I haven't done anything good.
00:05:48.520 And then Allah will say to him,
00:05:50.440 and today will be not wronged,
00:05:51.680 you will be not oppressed.
00:05:52.860 And it will be brought a bitaqa, 1.00
00:05:54.580 which is called Hadith al-Bitaqa,
00:05:55.460 it will be brought to him a card,
00:05:56.620 this authenticated by Sheikh al-Albani,
00:05:58.000 it will be brought to him a bitaqa, 0.99
00:05:59.940 written in it,
00:06:00.560 la ilaha illallah,
00:06:01.540 that he has done la ilaha illallah,
00:06:02.500 Allah is sincerely from his heart.
00:06:04.280 And then it will be placed on one side of the scale,
00:06:07.080 and all the 99 scrolls will be on the other side of the scale,
00:06:09.380 and la ilaha illallah,
00:06:10.200 Allah will overweigh all these 99 scrolls of evil deeds. 0.99
00:06:14.860 Some scholars,
00:06:15.380 they said,
00:06:16.000 you have to bring the conditions of la ilaha illallah,
00:06:18.680 like to pray the salah,
00:06:20.100 to do these things.
00:06:21.140 If he has implemented what la ilaha illallah implies,
00:06:24.740 as some scholars,
00:06:25.420 they said,
00:06:26.080 which he has to pray,
00:06:27.300 why Allah didn't,
00:06:28.540 you know,
00:06:29.760 why it wasn't written for him
00:06:31.340 on other than la ilaha illallah?
00:06:33.020 He has only la ilaha illallah written.
00:06:34.340 So if he has done something more,
00:06:35.980 Allah will write it. 0.67
00:06:36.700 Allah,
00:06:37.020 it will be written to him,
00:06:38.580 it will be commanded to be written for him.
00:06:40.380 He will be not prevented to be written,
00:06:42.960 and everything will be known,
00:06:44.360 and Allah,
00:06:44.860 Allah azza al,
00:06:45.520 will reward him for the things that he has done.
00:06:47.580 If he has done it,
00:06:48.620 Allah will mention that to him,
00:06:49.780 but he didn't do it.
00:06:51.160 Allah will say,
00:06:52.160 Allah will bring Allah on the day of judgment, 1.00
00:06:54.260 it will be brought to him a bataqa, 1.00
00:06:56.240 and this bataqa,
00:06:57.000 this card written on it,
00:06:58.200 la ilaha illallah.
00:06:59.080 So that's hadith.
00:07:00.040 And that pretty much the hadith,
00:07:02.200 which our Shaykh al-Albani,
00:07:03.760 rahimahullah,
00:07:04.640 used to debate to say,
00:07:05.820 the one who leaves the salah is not a kafir. 0.77
00:07:08.400 He's still,
00:07:09.140 he's still a Muslim.
00:07:10.500 He's still within the fold of Islam. 1.00
00:07:12.420 He's not a kafir. 1.00
00:07:13.620 And that is supported by,
00:07:16.240 even one of the statements of Imam Ahmad,
00:07:19.040 rahimahullah,
00:07:19.820 because he has two statements.
00:07:20.700 Sometimes he said he's a kafir.
00:07:21.820 Another situation,
00:07:23.500 he said he's not a kafir,
00:07:24.800 which was supported as well,
00:07:26.600 by Imam al-Maqdisi,
00:07:28.280 rahimahullah,
00:07:28.800 in al-Mughni,
00:07:29.820 which he brought,
00:07:31.240 as well statement by Imam Ahmad,
00:07:33.660 to say the one who leaves the salah
00:07:34.740 is not a kafir,
00:07:35.660 out of laziness.
00:07:36.760 Now,
00:07:37.300 and we don't say that the one who leaves the salah,
00:07:39.100 all the one who leaves the salah,
00:07:40.520 out of,
00:07:40.980 the one who leaves the salah,
00:07:41.720 all of them are Muslims.
00:07:42.980 No, we don't say this.
00:07:44.060 We say the one who leaves the salah, 1.00
00:07:45.780 denying that the salah is obligation.
00:07:47.720 That's ijma.
00:07:49.060 That's ijma.
00:07:49.700 He's out of the fold of Islam. 1.00
00:07:50.720 There is no way.
00:07:51.600 Or the one who believes the salah 0.98
00:07:52.820 is only kind of,
00:07:54.300 like what our Shaykh al-Albani,
00:07:55.400 the same question was asked to him,
00:07:57.520 to Shaykh al-Albani.
00:07:58.420 He said to him,
00:07:59.500 it was said to him,
00:08:00.240 this is the question.
00:08:00.840 He said,
00:08:01.440 if the one doesn't pray,
00:08:02.980 what about his zakat,
00:08:04.460 his siyam,
00:08:05.160 his zakat,
00:08:05.760 the fasting,
00:08:06.220 and all of these things?
00:08:07.180 This is the question,
00:08:07.940 and it's recorded by Shaykh al-Albani,
00:08:09.260 rahimahullah.
00:08:10.020 And then he said,
00:08:10.880 he said,
00:08:11.700 he said the two things.
00:08:13.640 He said,
00:08:14.020 either the person who leaves the salah,
00:08:15.860 either we say he's a kafir.
00:08:17.580 If he's a kafir, 1.00
00:08:18.840 that he has to know,
00:08:20.000 that he said that,
00:08:21.400 if he says that the salah
00:08:22.420 is only kind of practical,
00:08:24.200 it's just a gymnastic thing,
00:08:25.640 that you do it in the morning,
00:08:27.300 and I could do different things.
00:08:29.100 This person is a kafir, 0.99
00:08:29.940 out of the word of Islam. 0.86
00:08:31.040 But if the other side,
00:08:32.860 the one who says,
00:08:33.640 he leaves the salah,
00:08:34.240 out of laziness,
00:08:35.400 to say,
00:08:35.760 you know,
00:08:35.920 I'm lazy,
00:08:36.520 inshallah,
00:08:36.860 may Allah rectify me,
00:08:38.220 may Allah curse the shaitan, 1.00
00:08:39.480 and sometimes he said,
00:08:42.260 we'll try to do my best,
00:08:43.740 inshallah,
00:08:44.100 I'm trying to rectify myself.
00:08:45.680 He said,
00:08:46.160 we cannot judge he's a kafir.
00:08:47.940 We cannot say he's a kafir.
00:08:49.380 Unless,
00:08:50.060 if he was under an Islamic ruler,
00:08:52.980 and this Islamic ruler will judge him,
00:08:55.920 he will be doing istitaba for three days,
00:08:59.160 he will be jailed for three days,
00:09:01.160 and he will be presented to the capital punishment.
00:09:03.920 And if he choose the capital punishment
00:09:05.940 over the salah,
00:09:07.500 then in that case,
00:09:08.900 this person is out of the fold of Islam.
00:09:11.140 Then in that case,
00:09:12.180 he said,
00:09:12.580 that's what Sheikh Islam in Taymiyyah
00:09:13.980 will approve this,
00:09:15.040 that he's out of the fold of Islam.
00:09:16.280 That's what Sheikh Islam supported this. 0.65
00:09:17.940 He is out of the fold.
00:09:18.760 There's no way to bring this,
00:09:20.080 because he choose to die
00:09:21.440 rather than to pray.
00:09:23.660 Now,
00:09:23.920 on the other side,
00:09:24.900 if someone start praying,
00:09:26.460 what shall he do?
00:09:27.660 This is the question.
00:09:28.460 If he is a kafir, 1.00
00:09:29.420 the question is,
00:09:30.160 within these three days,
00:09:31.060 if he start praying,
00:09:32.180 someone he didn't pray for a month,
00:09:33.620 let's say,
00:09:34.280 and he will be jailed for three days.
00:09:36.080 Is he commanded?
00:09:37.080 The question is,
00:09:37.740 within these three days,
00:09:39.180 what he is commanded to do what?
00:09:41.000 But if he is not a Muslim, 0.89
00:09:43.200 how is he going to pray?
00:09:44.220 He has to bring the shahad of it. 0.98
00:09:45.720 So that's why we don't say he is,
00:09:47.340 you know,
00:09:47.860 he is a kafir,
00:09:48.880 he is out of the fold of Islam. 0.98
00:09:50.200 We say he is,
00:09:50.960 if he prays within these three days,
00:09:52.640 and he choose to pray,
00:09:53.780 that he is a Muslim.
00:09:54.580 Alhamdulillah,
00:09:54.840 that shows he comes back to Islam.
00:09:56.500 He comes back to proper practicing Islam. 0.99
00:09:58.800 Yeah.
00:09:59.260 And then,
00:09:59.840 that's what he said.
00:10:00.780 And he said,
00:10:01.440 Rahimullah,
00:10:02.120 Sheikh Al-Ban,
00:10:02.640 going back to what he says,
00:10:03.740 and he said,
00:10:04.600 no,
00:10:04.640 what is this?
00:10:04.900 We cannot judge because we can't say.
00:10:06.520 That's why we cannot assume the person.
00:10:08.420 We cannot assume.
00:10:10.200 We cannot assume.
00:10:11.060 We say,
00:10:11.400 okay,
00:10:11.560 you start praying,
00:10:12.160 sister,
00:10:12.500 start praying,
00:10:13.060 you do that,
00:10:13.600 et cetera.
00:10:13.820 We advise,
00:10:14.580 we remind the people,
00:10:15.580 et cetera.
00:10:16.280 And we cannot judge this person as a kafir, 0.97
00:10:18.160 unless if the person denies the obligation of the salah,
00:10:20.980 or says,
00:10:21.720 or say the salah is not something as important,
00:10:24.200 or,
00:10:24.600 you know,
00:10:25.200 et cetera,
00:10:25.660 of the statement.
00:10:26.480 And then in that case,
00:10:27.560 he said,
00:10:27.980 either he said verbally with his tongue,
00:10:30.020 or with his heart,
00:10:31.740 meaning not necessarily he has to say it,
00:10:33.520 but he knows in his heart,
00:10:34.880 he doesn't like,
00:10:35.420 he doesn't like the salah,
00:10:36.320 he doesn't,
00:10:36.760 he hates the salah,
00:10:37.400 he hates Allah, 0.88
00:10:38.640 he hates to follow the Islam. 0.83
00:10:40.080 He's a munafiq, 1.00
00:10:40.860 like the hypocrites. 1.00
00:10:43.000 Again, 1.00
00:10:43.580 this munafiqeen,
00:10:44.400 even the Prophet ï·º,
00:10:45.180 he dealt with them according to the appearance of Islam.
00:10:48.240 And if they fulfill them,
00:10:49.860 so that's the condition to do that.
00:10:51.560 So going back to the point,
00:10:52.920 so the same thing as other obligations of Islam,
00:10:55.460 the person will be,
00:10:56.800 the person will be,
00:10:58.820 will be judged according to their deeds.
00:11:02.140 And if the person leaves the salah,
00:11:03.700 or some of the salah,
00:11:05.200 and we say,
00:11:06.180 if he is out of laziness,
00:11:07.520 and we say to him,
00:11:08.060 rectify yourself,
00:11:09.020 fear Allah,
00:11:10.100 you know,
00:11:10.460 go back to practice Islam. 0.99
00:11:12.140 And if he fast,
00:11:14.180 or he do the zakat,
00:11:15.040 it still is acceptable from them,
00:11:16.920 according to the statement of the Shaykh,
00:11:18.920 of Shaykh al-Albani,
00:11:19.760 rahimahullah.
00:11:20.840 Now,
00:11:21.360 and according to the statement of other scholars,
00:11:23.420 as well of Islam.
00:11:24.520 So that's why the question is,
00:11:25.900 or the answer is not yes and no question.
00:11:27.960 The answer is,
00:11:28.580 has a context,
00:11:29.720 and has an understanding.
00:11:31.360 So if someone,
00:11:32.100 in total,
00:11:32.440 we say the person who leaves the salah,
00:11:35.360 generally,
00:11:36.060 it doesn't mean,
00:11:37.400 I'll go again,
00:11:38.660 that some scholar took it as,
00:11:41.120 all his deeds are nullified.
00:11:43.560 And means that Allah will not accept, 1.00
00:11:46.100 that his efforts,
00:11:47.320 or,
00:11:47.340 or,
00:11:47.760 et cetera.
00:11:48.420 And it has different meanings.
00:11:49.880 And that shows as well,
00:11:51.060 the same hadith,
00:11:51.800 which says,
00:11:52.180 which says the one who leaves one salah,
00:11:53.480 or two salah,
00:11:54.280 and of Allah,
00:11:54.940 Allah will ask the angel,
00:11:56.460 see for myself,
00:11:57.680 if he has the deficiency,
00:11:59.200 that if he has any,
00:12:00.100 any voluntary deeds,
00:12:01.040 to be replaced,
00:12:01.980 with his obligatory salah.
00:12:03.880 So that's why,
00:12:04.700 again,
00:12:05.200 we say that the answer is not yes and no.
00:12:07.800 And we say the person,
00:12:08.740 that these things is accepted.
00:12:10.000 And this is supported again,
00:12:11.360 by even Imam Shafi,
00:12:13.140 one of the,
00:12:14.000 one of his statements,
00:12:15.000 and other scholars as well,
00:12:16.920 to say that the person as well,
00:12:18.780 is blameworthy,
00:12:20.460 for usul al-din,
00:12:21.600 for the fundamentals of Islam,
00:12:22.960 and for u'u,
00:12:23.820 and even the branches of din,
00:12:25.780 that includes the salah,
00:12:27.200 the siyam,
00:12:28.060 the hajj,
00:12:28.460 et cetera.
00:12:29.000 So the person is blameworthy.
00:12:30.240 So if someone doesn't pray,
00:12:31.600 and it doesn't mean he has to leave everything in Islam.
00:12:33.940 If someone doesn't pray,
00:12:35.200 we say to him,
00:12:36.080 start praying,
00:12:36.840 start to rectify yourself,
00:12:38.320 and as well,
00:12:38.840 do your duties as a Muslim.
00:12:39.980 Do what you can.
00:12:41.120 Yeah?
00:12:41.460 Maybe,
00:12:41.940 maybe this person will come back,
00:12:43.880 to practice Islam any more.
00:12:45.920 And that's why,
00:12:46.540 even the schools of Islam,
00:12:47.440 they said,
00:12:48.160 are the people who are,
00:12:49.420 the kuffar,
00:12:50.220 the disbeliever,
00:12:51.000 are they blameworthy,
00:12:52.300 for the,
00:12:52.900 for the,
00:12:53.440 for not practicing,
00:12:54.180 for the salawat,
00:12:55.380 for the prayer,
00:12:56.540 for the fasting,
00:12:57.180 for these things?
00:12:58.140 Even some scholars believe,
00:12:59.180 they are,
00:12:59.540 they will be punished for that.
00:13:00.720 Some scholars,
00:13:01.200 they say,
00:13:01.580 because those are from the branches of Islam.
00:13:03.660 Yeah?
00:13:04.140 So they have to be,
00:13:04.960 they have to be done.
00:13:05.860 So that's why,
00:13:06.440 this is,
00:13:06.820 that's why we say to the people,
00:13:08.260 and as well,
00:13:08.620 this is saying by Imam,
00:13:10.000 by the,
00:13:11.060 in Hanif,
00:13:11.840 as well,
00:13:12.380 in the Madaheb,
00:13:13.320 generally,
00:13:14.520 the three Madaheb,
00:13:15.720 believes the one who,
00:13:16.500 he loosed the salah,
00:13:17.320 is not,
00:13:17.740 is a Muslim,
00:13:18.940 and is judged, 0.52
00:13:19.880 and is blameworthy,
00:13:20.600 for the things that he leaves,
00:13:21.540 from the obligations of Islam. 0.99
00:13:23.820 The same thing,
00:13:24.680 the person is rewarded,
00:13:25.580 for the things that he do,
00:13:26.640 from the obligations of Islam. 0.99
00:13:28.160 Now,
00:13:28.600 except there's one riwayah,
00:13:29.780 by Imam Ahmed,
00:13:30.400 that to say,
00:13:30.820 he's a kafir,
00:13:31.280 supported by Sheikh Islam Tamya,
00:13:32.500 as well,
00:13:33.120 which we respect,
00:13:34.000 and we honor,
00:13:34.920 and as well,
00:13:35.540 but if you,
00:13:36.180 if you read the context,
00:13:37.100 of Sheikh Islam Tamya.
00:13:37.940 We don't say,
00:13:38.680 that is the opinion.
00:13:39.940 We don't say,
00:13:40.560 that is the only opinion.
00:13:42.340 We respect it.
00:13:43.160 Yeah,
00:13:43.340 we respect it.
00:13:44.320 And actually,
00:13:45.120 if people who understood,
00:13:47.100 Sheikh Islam Tamya properly, 0.84
00:13:48.440 Sheikh Islam Tamya,
00:13:49.520 he was talking about,
00:13:50.260 the one,
00:13:51.020 who is presented,
00:13:52.660 to the capital punishment,
00:13:53.900 and choose not to pray,
00:13:55.220 that shows this person,
00:13:57.040 as a kafir.
00:13:58.260 So that's what,
00:13:58.860 what Imam al-Albani,
00:13:59.800 supported this.
00:14:01.040 That's what our Sheikh al-Albani,
00:14:02.560 supported this,
00:14:03.260 and he said,
00:14:03.740 that shows what is in his heart. 0.68
00:14:05.320 He has the hatred to Islam, 0.52
00:14:06.540 and hatred to practice Islam, 0.60
00:14:07.680 to the extent, 1.00
00:14:08.320 he prefer to die, 0.99
00:14:09.400 he prefer to die, 0.99
00:14:10.820 than to pray. 0.56
00:14:11.800 That shows,
00:14:12.400 what is in his heart.
00:14:13.820 And as well,
00:14:14.840 you find as well,
00:14:15.500 some scholars,
00:14:15.980 even the contemporary scholars of Islam,
00:14:17.380 like Ibn A'tameen,
00:14:18.620 and Ibn Baz,
00:14:19.300 rahmahumullah,
00:14:20.020 and all of,
00:14:20.440 many of the scholars,
00:14:21.180 believes that the one who lives as a kafir, 1.00
00:14:23.100 and all the other actions,
00:14:24.380 is nullified.
00:14:26.480 And by the way,
00:14:27.420 as well,
00:14:27.740 includes,
00:14:28.520 that they said,
00:14:29.020 their marriage is void.
00:14:30.660 When they say,
00:14:31.200 everything is void,
00:14:32.760 the Bihah is not valid, 1.00
00:14:34.020 there are many things,
00:14:35.800 who they believe,
00:14:37.540 that if they slaughter,
00:14:39.060 their slaughter is not valid,
00:14:40.340 if their marriage is invalid,
00:14:41.880 all of these things,
00:14:42.740 which applies to a Muslim,
00:14:45.580 it doesn't apply to them.
00:14:47.320 But the other,
00:14:47.920 as we have the other side,
00:14:49.100 as well,
00:14:49.520 the vast majority of the scholars of Islam,
00:14:51.900 believes,
00:14:52.360 actually,
00:14:52.840 is not a kafir,
00:14:53.380 he's still a Muslim,
00:14:54.500 but it doesn't mean,
00:14:56.260 again,
00:14:56.680 we don't say,
00:14:57.360 we don't sugarcoat it,
00:14:58.220 we say he's a good person.
00:14:59.760 That the worst sin,
00:15:01.840 after shirk,
00:15:03.220 below shirk,
00:15:03.920 just below shirk,
00:15:05.040 is leaving the salah.
00:15:06.360 Well,
00:15:06.700 Allah says in the Quran,
00:15:07.680 the angels will ask them,
00:15:09.100 what brings you to hell?
00:15:09.840 Yeah,
00:15:10.040 they were not amongst those,
00:15:13.960 what brings you to,
00:15:15.280 it's the valley.
00:15:16.840 And we're not saying,
00:15:17.700 that they're going to be in there forever,
00:15:19.020 but anyone with a haql in their head,
00:15:21.100 don't want to go through.
00:15:23.040 Yes,
00:15:23.400 exactly.
00:15:23.900 So,
00:15:24.160 it's a major sin,
00:15:25.640 it is the biggest sin,
00:15:26.560 even the scholars of Islam,
00:15:27.500 it is enough,
00:15:28.100 as some scholars said,
00:15:29.180 it is enough evil,
00:15:30.660 for the one who leaves the salah,
00:15:31.780 or the one who doesn't,
00:15:33.300 doesn't do the salah on time,
00:15:35.020 it's enough evil,
00:15:35.560 that the scholars of Islam,
00:15:36.360 they debate,
00:15:36.800 if he's a Muslim or not Muslim.
00:15:37.860 Can you imagine?
00:15:39.060 It shows,
00:15:39.660 if the scholars of Islam,
00:15:40.680 they say,
00:15:41.120 is he a Muslim or not a Muslim?
00:15:43.060 They debate.
00:15:44.580 They know,
00:15:45.240 shall we accept him as a Muslim,
00:15:46.700 or not a Muslim?
00:15:47.580 So that's why it's a big thing,
00:15:48.680 it's not something which is small.
00:15:49.960 So that's why we say to the brothers and sisters,
00:15:51.800 start praying,
00:15:52.940 and ask Allah,
00:15:53.700 you know,
00:15:54.080 to guide you to Islam,
00:15:55.260 ask Allah to guide you to the way of Islam, 0.99
00:15:57.620 and the guidance of Islam,
00:15:58.660 and praying,
00:15:59.500 and that's something which is important.
00:16:01.140 And again,
00:16:02.760 and subhanAllah,
00:16:04.580 try your best,
00:16:05.300 inshallah ta'ala,
00:16:06.380 to make sure that when you fast,
00:16:08.260 you want to end the pleasure of Allah. 0.99
00:16:09.980 So that's why,
00:16:10.720 how do you end the pleasure of Allah, 0.91
00:16:11.780 while you're disobeying him,
00:16:12.740 by not praying,
00:16:13.400 by not doing the righteous deeds of Allah.
00:16:15.400 Exactly.
00:16:15.800 Brothers and sisters,

00:16:51.180 20 people,
00:16:51.600 30 people,
00:16:52.460 how to pray salah.
00:16:53.380 Imagine them learning Fatiha for the first time,
00:16:55.400 and may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, 0.96
00:16:56.560 make this a beneficial month for us,
00:16:58.720 brothers and sisters,
00:16:59.420 and protect us from backbiting.
00:17:01.360 Well,
00:17:01.460 Allah is sad that I'm seeing people who are fasting, 1.00
00:17:04.920 backbiting.
00:17:06.040 The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
00:17:07.200 Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is free.
00:17:08.600 Allah doesn't need your staying away from food and water,
00:17:10.960 if you can,
00:17:11.420 if you're not going to stop lying and backbiting,
00:17:13.500 yeah.
00:17:13.840 And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
00:17:14.720 Allah promises Jannah for the one who guarantees what's between his lips, 1.00
00:17:18.000 and what's between his legs,
00:17:19.500 brothers and sisters.
00:17:20.280 So let's avoid backbiting and talking,
00:17:22.800 we can differ with each other,
00:17:24.220 but may Allah protect us inshallah,
00:17:25.820 and may Allah bless you guys.
00:17:26.980 Do not forget to subscribe to Sheikh Mohammed's YouTube channel,
