Continuation of the mention of examples in the rule of prohibitions
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : But someone knocked on his door to ask for permission, heard the door, and said: "Please come in." He said to the one who knocked on the door, but he was unaware that he was in prayer. What is the ruling on him? Is his prayer invalidated or not? It is not invalidated, why? Because he was unaware and inattentive.
Another man who loves good and loves to perform the obligatory duties sneezed next to a man who was praying with him. The one who sneezed said: "Praise be to Allah." Is this permissible or not? It is permissible and prescribed. If you sneeze while you are praying, say: "Praise be to Allah." His companion next to him said: "May Allah have mercy on you," interpreting it as a supplication, because he imagined that supplication in prayer does not invalidate the prayer. Even if he had used the address particle, saying: "May Allah have mercy on you," the prayer ended. So some of those present said to him: "Repeat the prayer, because you spoke with the words of humans, addressing your companion by saying: 'May Allah have mercy on you.'" What do we say to him based on the rule that Allah mentioned in the verse? What do we say? We say: "You owe nothing." And the one who said: "Your prayer is invalid" is not correct, because the Sunnah judges between people, and the Sunnah occurred in this exact situation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) did not order the one who spoke to repeat the prayer: Meaning: They looked at him with a look of disapproval, because if a person looks at you with a look of approval, it is not said that he threw his gaze at you, but a look of disapproval is said: "They threw their gazes at him," disapproving of his statement. So he said: Meaning he spoke a second time, so they began hitting their thighs to silence him, and he was silent. When the prayer ended, the One who is Most Merciful and Compassionate to the believers, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), called him after the prayer ended. Mu'awiyah said: He did not disapprove of him with his face or his tongue, he did not rebuke him or scold him, but he only said: Riyad as-Salihin 700 or as he said. And he did not order him to repeat it. And this is evidence of what? That whoever does a prohibited thing while unaware owes nothing. And in the hadith of Abu Hurayrah established in the Sahih: Sahih Muslim 1155 This is a person who forgot that he was fasting, so he passed by the water sellers and drank because he was thirsty and forgot that he was fasting. What do we say to him? He owes nothing. Good.
Another man had a bunch of grapes, so he began eating from the bunch while unaware that he was fasting. When one grape remained, he remembered that he was fasting. He said: "I will eat this grape; if the first bunch did not break my fast, then this grape will not break my fast. And if it does break my fast, then the matter is over." What do you say about this? Did he break his fast with the first one?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : With the last grape, because it was obligatory for him to stop and ask. Perhaps someone will say: "He ate the grape while unaware." But we say: He was negligent. It was obligatory for him to ask, because now he is unaware that forgetting breaks the fast, but he should ask and stop. Good.
A man bled himself while fasting, thinking that cupping does not break the fast. Is his fast invalid? No, because he was unaware.
A man broke his fast thinking that the sun had set, then it became clear that it had not set. Is his fast invalid? No. Good.
A man ate after the dawn had risen, thinking that the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Al-Baqarah 2:187] is that the threads are ropes. So he kept eating and drinking until the black thread was distinguished from the white thread. Is his fast invalid? The answer: A little, it is not invalid, because he was unaware. And these two incidents occurred during the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):
As for the first: It is from Asma' bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both) who said: And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order them to make up the fast. If making up the fast had been obligatory, what? He would have ordered them to do so, due to the obligation of conveying it to them. So when he did not order it, it is known that it is not obligatory. And it falls under the rule: [Al-Baqarah 2:286] Good.
As for the second: 'Adi ibn Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him) wanted to fast. And in the verse:[Al-Baqarah 2:187] So he placed two cords under his pillow. I made a mistake in the grammar; he placed two cords under his pillow, one black and the other white. And he kept eating and looking at the cords. When the white was distinguished from the black, he stopped. He informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of this, and he did not order him to repeat it. Why? Because he was unaware and interpreting it, thinking that this was the meaning of the verse. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) excused him.
Good. A man in the state of ihram for Hajj, and on the night of the festival, which is the night of Muzdalifah, after he had returned from 'Arafah, his wife was with him. So he had intercourse with his wife, thinking that the Hajj had ended, citing the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): So he said: "We have finished 'Arafah, and praise be to Allah." So is it permissible for him to have intercourse with his wife? So he had intercourse with her. And this intercourse occurred on the night of the festival, before the first exit from ihram or after it?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : After the first exit from ihram, before it or after it?
The student: Before the first exit from ihram.
The Shaykh : Before it, on the night of the festival.
The student: On the night of the festival, before.
The Shaykh : Before the first exit from ihram, are you sure? Good. Rest. Intercourse before the first exit from ihram invalidates the ritual, meaning it means the Hajj is invalid. Because intercourse before the first exit from ihram, with knowledge and awareness, entails five things: sin, invalidity of the ritual, continuing in it, making it up from the next year, and a fidyah, which is a camel. But this man was unaware, so he came to ask us. What do we say to him? What? We say: The Hajj is valid and you owe nothing, because you were unaware. And Allah the Exalted, when He called the believers:[Al-Baqarah 2:286] . The important thing, my brothers, is to take this rule with you in the commands. Next, come on, yes, you?
The student: In the commands ... .
The Shaykh : Do not interpret it, give us the verse.
The student:[Al-Baqarah 2:286].
The Shaykh :[Al-Baqarah 2:286] Well done. Rest. And in the prohibitions?
The student:[Al-Baqarah 2:286] .
The Shaykh :[Al-Baqarah 2:286] So Allah the Exalted said: Rest. And you have known practical examples from where? From the Sunnah, that the person who makes a mistake is not held accountable, and the person who forgets is not held accountable. But note that when the excuse is removed, it becomes obligatory to stop from the prohibited thing. Meaning, when a person knows that he is now in a prohibited state, it is obligatory for him to stop. When he remembers that he is in a prohibited state, it is obligatory for him to stop.
Another man who loves good and loves to perform the obligatory duties sneezed next to a man who was praying with him. The one who sneezed said: "Praise be to Allah." Is this permissible or not? It is permissible and prescribed. If you sneeze while you are praying, say: "Praise be to Allah." His companion next to him said: "May Allah have mercy on you," interpreting it as a supplication, because he imagined that supplication in prayer does not invalidate the prayer. Even if he had used the address particle, saying: "May Allah have mercy on you," the prayer ended. So some of those present said to him: "Repeat the prayer, because you spoke with the words of humans, addressing your companion by saying: 'May Allah have mercy on you.'" What do we say to him based on the rule that Allah mentioned in the verse? What do we say? We say: "You owe nothing." And the one who said: "Your prayer is invalid" is not correct, because the Sunnah judges between people, and the Sunnah occurred in this exact situation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) did not order the one who spoke to repeat the prayer:
Mu'awiyah ibn al-Hakam (may Allah be pleased with him) entered to pray, and a man from the people sneezed and said: "Praise be to Allah." So Mu'awiyah said to him: "May Allah have mercy on you." So the people threw their gazes at him, they threw their gazes at him.
معاوية بن الحكم رضي الله عنه دخل يصلي فعطس رجلٌ من القوم فقال : الحمد لله، فقال له معاوية : يرحمك الله، فرماه الناس بأبصارهم، رموه بأبصارهمWoe to my mother!
وا ثكل أمياهBy my father and my mother! By Allah, he did not rebuke me or scold me.
فبأبي هو وأمي! والله ما كهرني ولا نهرنيIt is not permissible to talk during Salat because it consists of glorifying Allah, declaring His Greatness as well as recitation of the Qur'an
إن هذه الصلاة لا يصلح فيها شيءٌ من كلام الناس، إنما هي التسبيح والتكبير وقراءة القرآنIf anyone forgets that he is fasting and eats or drinks he should complete his fast, for it is only Allah Who has fed him and given him drink.
من نسي وهو صائم فأكل أو شرب فليتم صومه فإنما أطعمه الله وسقاهAnother man had a bunch of grapes, so he began eating from the bunch while unaware that he was fasting. When one grape remained, he remembered that he was fasting. He said: "I will eat this grape; if the first bunch did not break my fast, then this grape will not break my fast. And if it does break my fast, then the matter is over." What do you say about this? Did he break his fast with the first one?

A man broke his fast thinking that the sun had set, then it became clear that it had not set. Is his fast invalid? No. Good.
A man ate after the dawn had risen, thinking that the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted:
until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread
حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِAs for the first: It is from Asma' bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both) who said:
We broke our fast during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a cloudy day, and then the sun appeared.
أفطرنا في عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم في يوم غيمٍ ثم طلعت الشمسOur Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred.
رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَاAs for the second: 'Adi ibn Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him) wanted to fast. And in the verse:
And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night]
وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِGood. A man in the state of ihram for Hajj, and on the night of the festival, which is the night of Muzdalifah, after he had returned from 'Arafah, his wife was with him. So he had intercourse with his wife, thinking that the Hajj had ended, citing the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
Hajj is 'Arafah
