Explanation of the Book of the Hearts-02a

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Sa'd ibn Hafs narrated to us, Shu'ayb narrated to us from Yahya from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim al-Qurashi, who said: Mu'adh ibn Abd al-Rahman informed me...

The Shaykh : Then the faction; it may be a complete faction, ... it may be a complete faction, and it may be a faction in the sense of agreement in some matter. For example, if you help a person in one of the issues, even if you do not help him in all his affairs, you are his faction in this issue. Yes.
The reciter: ...informed him, saying: I came to Uthman ibn Affan with water for ablution while he was sitting on the seats. He performed wudu' and perfected his wudu', then he said: I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform wudu' in this assembly and he perfected his wudu', then he said:
Whoever performs the ablution as I have done this time and then proceeds to the mosque and offers a two-rak`at prayer and then sits there (waiting for the compulsory congregational prayers), then all his past sins will be forgiven. من توضأ مثل هذا الوضوء ثم أتى المسجد فركع ركعتين ثم جلس غفر له ما تقدم من ذنبه
Sahih al-Bukhari 6433
He said: And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Do not be deceived لا تغتروا


The Shaykh : (peace and blessings be upon him). The point is his saying:
Do not be deceived لا تغتروا
: meaning do not be deceived by Satan, by this worldly life, and other things. Here, the word is sometimes open (fathah) and sometimes closed (dammah): tuhur and tahur, wudu' and wad'u. They say the difference between them is that wudu' and tuhur with the dammah refers to the action, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Purity is half of faith الطهور شطر الإيمان
. Tuhr, wudu' is likewise the action, meaning your act of performing wudu', washing the hands and face, and the like. As for the fathah, tuhur and wad'u, it is that by which one purifies oneself. Allah the Exalted said:
and We send down from the sky pure water وأنزلنا من السماء ماءاً طهوراً
[Al-Furqan 25:48]
tuhur, meaning purifying. And the Prophet (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him) said:
And I made the earth a mosque and a place of purification وجعلت الأرض مسجداً وطهوراً
.
