The Difference Between the Sunnah, the Emphasized Sunnah, the Obligatory, and the Fard

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
'Abdullah from the Noble Makkah says: What is the difference between the rulings of sunnah (recommended practice) and the emphasized sunnah?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the Sunnah means it is not obligatory, but there is merit in it; there is great merit in it. And the Sunnahs are divided into Emphasized Sunnahs and Sunnahs below that. Yes.

The questioner:
And the obligatory and the fard.

The Shaykh:
The obligatory and the fard mean the same thing; the fard is the obligatory, and the obligatory is the fard. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
