The Shaykh :"And therefore, the one who sought refuge among the Companions who narrated *** this hadith immediately after it, saying with his tongue:
O my Lord, I seek refuge from a disgrace *** by which I will be humiliated before the near and the distant.
That is the martyr, the approved Ibn Rawahah, the *** one beloved of forgiveness and pleasure."
"And therefore" means and because of the fact that the deeds are the deeds of relatives, they are presented to their relatives.
"The one who sought refuge among the Companions who narrated *** this hadith immediately after it"
This means that the Companion who narrated the hadith—and what is meant by the hadith? The hadith about a person's deeds being presented to his relatives—sought refuge when he mentioned this hadith, saying:
"O my Lord, I seek refuge from a disgrace *** by which I will be humiliated before the near and the distant"
"That is the martyr" and so on. He sought refuge in Allah from being humiliated before his relative, and his relative, as Ibn al-Qayyim says:
"That is the martyr, the approved Ibn Rawahah, the *** one beloved of forgiveness and pleasure"
And the one who said this is Abu al-Darda. There is a point to consider in al-Harras's statement in this place, because he mentioned that the one who sought refuge was Ibn Rawahah, which is not the case. The one who sought refuge was Abu al-Darda. He sought refuge from doing a bad deed by which he would be humiliated before 'Abd Allah ibn Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him), because he was one of his relatives. For this reason, he says: "And therefore, the one who sought refuge among the Companions who narrated *** this hadith immediately after it" This is connected to the seeking of refuge. "Saying with his tongue" Who is the one who sought refuge?
The student: Abu al-Darda.
The Shaykh : Abu al-Darda. So he said: "O my Lord, I seek refuge from a disgrace *** by which I will be humiliated before the near and the distant"
Before the near and the distant. "That is the martyr" The reference to "that is the martyr" is to the near and the distant.
"That is the martyr, the approved Ibn Rawahah, the *** one beloved of forgiveness and pleasure"
O my Lord, I seek refuge from a disgrace *** by which I will be humiliated before the near and the distant.
That is the martyr, the approved Ibn Rawahah, the *** one beloved of forgiveness and pleasure."
"And therefore" means and because of the fact that the deeds are the deeds of relatives, they are presented to their relatives.
