0:38

quote it from this he's done a nice way of its kind of sequence day pretty well rap metal oma 50 laughs Allah is a safari and Earth's money from the Ottomans obviously around shortly after at the grill sir yeah why not on this occasion we'll use a shower you what the hell what the hell man so solid it's a file on a solitary Dane is mashrou as so they all all the scholars they you know they definitely legislate and they accept salatul eid as a as a ritual prayer they disagree about its

1:17

ruling for Abu Hanifa here Watch Mandela young Abu honey you know sometimes I have to read it from you you know if I don't read people say you know can move to even read this one show the public you know coach of Abdul kappa doge a pyramid sorry dunya pari who hey hum be hated per me that's the right so talkative Abdul so here watchable illiyyun according to Imam Abu Hanifa

1:54

its watch Eber he gets this wrong since culture ma but that's not the Hanafi mother be made a mistake wealth is a mistake mistake mistake yourself a naughty naughty well all Malik was chef our year Sunnah so it's so now according to Malik wash every and Ahmed said here father Anelka fire so what is the ruling to do with Eid generally that's the difference of opinion but it's Sunnah okay I'm just giving it to you Abu Hanifa is mentioned said oh it's conditions or you have to be in a city there has to be a ladder dismal Imam blah blah blah blah blah this is

2:33

irrelevant stuff don't really worry too much about it as he says Paula Malik or chef a could with Alec Alisa be short well our justice a lot AHA for other women sure I mean and Minerva jelly one me sir so Imam Malik and Imam Shafi he said there's no problem in people preying on their own whether men or women can praise Allah to like it on their own okay so that's the ruling yes you can pray at home on your own that's always been a thing within the Maliki method and the chef a method right so what about how do you pray well we know it has some extra to be wrought a lot like

3:11

work so what is that all about well what topic or not the committal haram via willya so they all agree that you have to do a tech marital ashram to start off well tel aviv it took me at is a wedding and they disagree on what comes after that Cipolla abu hanifa abu hanifa tenormin Allah - effigy so let them fill Allah with Allah some fathanah he says three in the first and three in the last we'll call him a liquid malik enactments a septum fill Allah WA comes on fifth Anya five took me rot in the first Taraka and six sorry I said that

3:51

backwards six in the first raka five in the second raka what call - fi supper on fill Allah and chef is at seven in the beginning so now and sheriff ayan Ahmed say between each takbir you do dhikr you glorify but Malik and Abu Hanifa said nah me but you were Lee Benetech Bharat meskan said ma'am a you just to attack Bharat and the difference between this is based on some of the hadith in how they saw the Prophet how some people describe the prophets some people said they saw the Prophet too

4:27

sub 7:30 rot as he began the Eid prayer and then just started reciting now because with the Malik here you don't have a door I'll when you open the salon you don't say subhanak Allah will be handy care or anything like that you just say allahu akbar and hamdu lillahi rabbil alameen so you start straightaway so they saw that the first thick bead would have obviously been the takbir to start the pray the six tech merit that followed with the tech me rod for Eid the sheffy method would have thought mistakenly they would have thought ah seventh degree rod they must all be

5:05

extra so the because the share fees have a door when you open Salah so they obviously start with a log but then they read a daughter like subhana Kalama be hung the column about bein you a bit so now to them they would have read this then did seven assuming the person is saying they were seven that without but the first of those seven the first one was actually for opening the prayer and it wasn't a defeater tool of Eid right then when do you do them

5:43

Paula Malik wash fi you could demo takbir a little character or cutting Malik and chef ie said that you these methods that you do took meal before you do recitation in both regards you get up or you know as soon as you begin allahu akbar allahu akbar allahu akbar allahu allah and you do the turkey rot and then you start recitation al hamdu lillahi rabbil aalameen now when you get up the second time same thing that's Malik in chef a however about hanifa said you know what you mix it up a little shake it up shake it up he said on the first one you'll do it

6:20

before but in the second one you'll do after recitation before going into Rocco so remember it's only three the card with the Hanafi R and D and you do ruff earlier thing okay so you do a roughly attained now generally they all except that you do ruffle attained now Malik in one rewire in the model when I have not sim says you don't do really then apart from for the first four starting salat but all the other Maliki is Mukhtar rough you've got even a keen Anna you've got other people you've got the eggnog tools and you've got a lot of all the

6:58

other Maliki a generally transmitted that you can do to you know drop anything okay so it's in the it's in even after hakama small in is much more it's that's the rewire as well that it's to do roughly thing so you do Allah Akbar Allah work when you raise the hands okay now then this just to touch up on one two other points what if you miss eight pray do you have to make it up telephone female fighter to salat Allah it mal amantha Paula - if ever Malik la yeah you do not do about Malik on our Hanif I said but Ahmed said yeah

7:36

Lehman ferritin and chef ie was kind of had both opinions now right okay now they do disagree should you pray outside if you have an opportunity but since it's in lockdown I won't go too much into that but they generally all say that except the Schaffer yeah they say if you can do it in the Masjid and the Masjid is large enough then that's better okay there you go sometimes you got to read from the book just so so people know you're literate otherwise people start to think yeah you know I don't know whether most he can even read

8:11

so in simple terms we will pray eat at home on your own you can follow any man virtually if you are you can do that that's fine even if you do it on your own you can it's just to record you before beginning you can I mean you know you can do some vicar etc takbir Allahu Akbar things like this but you begin the main thing is you begin if you're doing it on your own there isn't going to be a hot bar release just to eat pray okay so you just do 2 rakaat and you begin according

8:49

to the Marquis you begin you do kind of like you do a lot more than six extra weaves and you just pray normally in the second record you stand up once you've stood up you do five extra to tweeze and then just carry on normally the difference with the hanafis which is widespread in the UK is they don't do they just do three extra on each record in the first record that'll be three in the beginning so when you start you said you two are before you read fat tell you do three lower in the second record you get up as normal you start reading fat they are surah then you do three and then you go into the core that's what it is if you miss it

9:29

you don't need to make it up relax and yeah I think that pretty much covers it if you if you are praying with an imam and you've missed the takbir at the imam has done them then you can just catch up so long as you in the same raka if you've missed it altogether don't worry about it okay but if you can make if you can catch it in that record just catch it just do it yourself okay if you can that's if you're praying behind any man right other than that we've got so the cultural fit are the ruling on so the cultural fit are yes you can solder

10:07

patrol fitter can be given in cash it doesn't have to be food and you can give it is an average like the cost of a I don't know is it something like about four pounds five pounds maybe four pound fifty four pounds something like that it per head okay so each person of the household even if it's a child they this much amount is given per capita okay so you will whoever the per the responsible person will give for everyone in their family okay and you can give that to charity you can give that before eat or on eat okay I hope that wraps things up what about the door and hugging people and things

10:47

like that obviously you've got social distancing going on but if you are hugging people wherever you are in the world that's fine if you say things like hula I want to behave you can say that Imam Malik was asked what do you you know people say couple Elohim income is this okay he said look it's not something the Prophet did but he said I see no problem with you know these kind of practices it's all good people it's all good I thought I'll put that out there okay
