Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Shaykh, our brother Jumu'ah is eager to hear your guidance... Do you have any observations that he could benefit from regarding the sermon?
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh: - Peace be upon you, welcome - They asked when I mentioned the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dozing off in "Sahih Muslim," and his statement that a surah had just been revealed to him:[Al-Kawthar 108:1], does it not contain "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful"?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: It is in it, and it is not in it.
The questioner: It is in it; I am as if I did not mention it.
The Shaykh: So you did not mention the issue.
The questioner: Yes, indeed, it seems so.
The Shaykh: This is what I wanted to remind you of.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh: Another need.
The questioner: May Allah reward you with good. I want your advice on the sermon regarding what I preach.
The Shaykh: If Allah wills, there is nothing wrong with it, but do not follow the custom of preachers, which is lengthening the sermon.
The questioner : Ah.
The Shaykh: Do not lengthen it; keep it concise. That is, if you want to lengthen it, make it like your prayer.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: And limit the topic of the sermon; do not wander east and west, even if it is all beneficial.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: And welcome.
The questioner: Okay, please, we are ready for you.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you.
The questioner: Does Ibn Kathir's Tafsir, from Ibn Abbas and others, show leniency in accepting them?
The Shaykh: If they do not contradict [the evidence], there is nothing wrong with it.
The questioner: That is, if he mentions them, yes.
The Shaykh: But sometimes there is something subtle in them that is not permissible to accept without verifying its authenticity.
The questioner : Yes, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh: - Peace be upon you, welcome - They asked when I mentioned the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dozing off in "Sahih Muslim," and his statement that a surah had just been revealed to him:
Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar.
