                                        Ignorance is sometimes pardoned in Islam. For instance we are pardoned when we eat due to forgetfulness during fasting. But there are differences in opinion on the part of scholars as to whether swalat offered  while in junub valid when one didn't know he was junub. With this we mean praying without ghusl after wet dream or having intercourse because one thought he was pure. Some scholars assume since it was due to forgetfulness one is pardoned. Other school of thought oppose that by saying even if after swalat one remember he didn't recite Fatiha then the prayer list be repeated.

They goes on to say that some mistakes are expenses to be pardoned and that repeating the act of worship is better. In all *Allahu A'alam*. This similar issue is what is clarifiedin the first Hadith. Once an Imam omit something in the prayer and he didn't correct it while it wasn't noticed by the congregation then the congregation are pardoned while he isn't. And when He correctly prays then they all receive the reward. There's also a school of thought which claims when one catch some part of the swalat in which the imam didn't make mistake, then he isn't entitled to rectify (by offering sujud sahw) it.

We all know *Qab'li* is done before the tasleem while *Ba'adi* is done after tasleem. For instance when one catch up the last two raka'ats of zuhr after the Imaam omit/add something in/to the swalat, he is entitled to perform the Ba'adi after making up his missed raka'ats. Since he is entitled to perform Qab'li so he is to perform Ba'di too. Though some mazhab oppse this as I said, but adhering to this is better. We Shall however go more into Sujud sahw (Qab'li and Ba'adi) in our subsequent lesson on this broad topic in Sha Allah. The second hadith warn us off lengthening our swalats/verses when leading the prayer.

One can do that when praying alone but isn't encouraged doing that with the congregation. A man happened to dodge the morning prayer and confessed of the imam prolonging the  prayer when asked why. Prophet didn't fancy the imam's act and thereby orders us /imam's to shorten prayers since the congregation may contain the weak, old and the needy. The third Hadith also emphasize on the same issue and that Prophet upon hearing the cry of a baby while leading prayer shortens it. He didn't want the child to put the mum to trial.

*Let's continue on these Hadiths*👇.                                      Volume 1, Book 11, Number 578:

Narrated Ibn 'Umar:

When the Muslims arrived at Medina, they used to assemble for the prayer, and used to guess the time for it. During those days, the practice of Adhan for the prayers had not been introduced yet. Once they discussed this problem regarding the call for prayer. Some people suggested the use of a bell like the Christians, others proposed a trumpet like the horn used by the Jews, but 'Umar was the first to suggest that a man should call (the people) for the prayer; so Allah's Apostle ordered Bilal to get up and pronounce the Adhan for prayers.

Volume 1, Book 11, Number 577:

Narrated Anas:

The people mentioned the fire and the bell (they suggested those as signals to indicate the starting of prayers), and by that they mentioned the Jews and the Christians. Then Bilal was ordered to pronounce Adhan for the prayer by saying its wordings twice, and for the Iqama (the call for the actual standing for the prayers in rows) by saying its wordings once. (Iqama is pronounced when the people are ready for the prayer).

Volume 1, Book 11, Number 583:

Narrated 'Abdul Rahman:

Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri told my father, "I see you liking sheep and the wilderness. So whenever you are with your sheep or in the wilderness and you want to pronounce Adhan for the prayer raise your voice in doing so, for whoever hears the Adhan, whether a human being, a jinn or any other creature, will be a witness for you on the Day of Resurrection." Abu Said added, "I heard it (this narration) from Allah's Apostle."

Hadratul Umar r.t.a was a great Companion of the Holy Prophet who was before a disbeliever. He played major role in making sure Islam stood firm. Most of his opinions were approved by the Holy Prophet and Allah. He was who first opinioned  the wives of Prophet cover themselves which was later approved for which some verses in the Quran was revealed. He also did wished the Qibla be changed to Qa'aba for which it was later changed via Quaranic verse. He also object to the freeing of the captives from badr battle though Prophet objected earlier.Later Quranic verses were received supporting his opinion.

His opinion was also accepted when he suggested the call of adhan. Some Muslims suggested the use of bells like the Christians and trumpet like horn to that of the Jews. But Prophet accepted that of Umar's opinion since the other two is an imitation of the Jews and Christians. *Adhan* as we all know is pronounced calling people to swalat, whereas *Iqama* is pronounced when the people are ready for the prayer. Adhan is done raising one's voice louder as compared to Iqama. It is encouraged to raise one's voice for any creature wheather jinn, human, animal that hears it will bear witness to the caller on the judgment day.

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
