Reading from the author's text with commentary and collation of manuscripts: "And as for the bone: it is permissible that his prohibition of slaughtering with it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And as for the bone: it is permissible that his prohibition of slaughtering with it is like his prohibition of using it for istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself); because of the impurity it leaves on the jinn, since blood is impure. The intention here is not to discuss the issue of slaughter specifically, as there is discussion on that which is not the place for it here."
The Shaykh : its place
The reader: "This is not its place. Also, in the *Sahihayn* (the two Sahihs), from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, who said: The bahirah is the one whose milk is dedicated to the idols, so no one among the people milks it. And the sa'ibah: they used to dedicate it to their gods, and nothing was to be carried on it. And he said: Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan al-Bayhaqi 17:655.
Muslim narrated, from the hadith of Suhayl ibn Abi Salih, from his father, from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 2856a.
Al-Bukhari narrated, from the hadith of Abi Salih from Abu Hurayrah: That the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 3520.
This is from the well-known knowledge: that 'Amr ibn Luhyi was the first to set up the idols around the House, and it is said that he brought them from al-Balqa', from the land of Sham, imitating the people of al-Balqa'. He was the first to dedicate the sa'ibah, to connect the wasilah, and to protect the ham".
The Shaykh : I have al-hami and protected al-hamiyyah with a yaa.
The student: Hami.
The Shaykh : Yes, this is the requirement of the rules.
The student: Is it more correct, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The reader: "And to protect the ham. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informedSahih al-Bukhari 4623 and these are the intestines, and from this the butcher is named, because they resemble reeds. It is known that the Arabs before him were on the religion of their father Ibrahim, on the law of tawhid (the oneness of Allah), and the smooth Hanifiyyah, the religion of their father Ibrahim.
So they imitated 'Amr ibn Luhyi - and he was a great man among the people of Makkah at that time, because Khuza'ah were the guardians".
The Shaykh : Do you have it... do you have it? Yes.
The student: ...
The student: So 'Amr ibn Luhyi imitated
The Shaykh : How?
The student: So 'Amr ibn Luhyi imitated
The Shaykh : And the one who read?
The student: They imitated
The Shaykh : Imitated in the singular? It appears that "they imitated" is closer to the correct.
The reader: After that, there is a continuation of the speech, perhaps this whole thing is a parenthetical statement. He said later: "So 'Amr imitated those he saw in Sham". It seems the first one is a parenthetical statement, this long speech, the long speech, ... then he said after that, two lines later.
The Shaykh : In any case, both have a face, but "they imitated" is closer. Yes.
The reader: "So they imitated 'Amr ibn Luhyi - and he was a great man among the people of Makkah at that time, because Khuza'ah were the guardians of the House before Quraysh, and the rest of the Arabs were imitating the people of Makkah, because in it is the House of Allah, and to it is the Hajj, and they have been honored since the time of Ibrahim (peace be upon him) - so 'Amr imitated those he saw in Sham, and he approved with his mind what they were upon, and he saw that in prohibiting what he prohibited of the bahirah, the sa'ibah, the wasilah, and the ham".
The Shaykh : And the wasil and not wasilah
The reader: Wasilah
The Shaykh : Yes
The reader: "And the wasilah and the ham, as an exalting of Allah"
The Shaykh : And the ham
The reader: With a yaa?
The Shaykh : With a yaa, its origin is deficient.
The reader: "And the wasilah and the ham, as an exalting of Allah and religion. So what he did was the origin of shirk (associating partners with Allah) among the Arabs, the people of the religion of Ibrahim, and the origin of prohibiting the halal (lawful). And he only did it by imitating others among the people of the earth. So the matter continued to increase and worsen until shirk with Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and changing His religion prevailed over the best of the lands, until Allah sent His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), so he revived the religion of Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and established tawhid, and made lawful what they were prohibiting.
And Surat al-An'am, from the words of Allah the Exalted:[Al-An'am 6:136] to His words: [Al-An'am 6:140] of the surah".
The Shaykh : I have to the end of the surah, to the end of the surah.
The reader: "To the end of the surah is an address to these types of people; for this reason Allah the Exalted says in the middle of it:[Al-An'am 6:148]".
The Shaykh : I have[An-Nahl 16:35]. It appears "they will say" is the one in al-An'am. "They will say" is correct. Verify it, the one who has it, and he said to write it.
The reader: "For this reason Allah the Exalted says in the middle of it:[Al-An'am 6:148].
And it is known that the origin of this prohibition: is leaving the permissible matters for the sake of religion, and the origin of this religious observance: is from imitating the disbelievers, even if imitating them was not intended. So it has become clear to you that from the origin of the erasure of the religion of Allah and its laws, and the appearance of disbelief and sins: is imitating the disbelievers,"
The Shaykh : Imitating in the accusative case, from the origin, imitating
The reader: Yes "So it has become clear to you that from the origin of the erasure of the religion of Allah and its laws, and the appearance of disbelief and sins: is imitating the disbelievers, just as from the origin of all good".
The Shaykh : This is supported by his statement (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Abi Dawud 4031Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani) This refers to some of them in what they imitate in the disbelievers, and some in what their affair ends up being if Allah the Exalted does not grant them success in repentance. Reality bears witness to this, and for that reason you find that the people furthest from faith and Islam are those who were deceived by the appearances of the disbelievers and imitated them. We ask Allah for guidance for everyone.
The reader: "Just as one of the foundations of all good is: preserving the sunnah (recommended practice) of the Prophets" .
The Shaykh : A principle like this means you should write it down. We wrote the important parts of this book in a small booklet, but we may have missed some things. If you were to keep a notebook and write down the important principles whenever we finish a lesson, that would be good. Yes.
The reader: "Just as one of the foundations of all good is: preserving the sunnah (recommended practice) and legislations of the Prophets. For this reason, the impact of bid'ah (religious innovation) in the religion is great, even if it does not involve imitating the disbelievers. How much more so if it combines both descriptions?" .
The Shaykh : That is, bid'ah (religious innovation) in the religion is greater than many of the major sins because it involves changing the religion. So much so that some scholars said: "There is no repentance for the one who commits bid'ah (religious innovation)" because of the deviation from the Shari'ah (Islamic sacred law) that he leaves behind him. Therefore, a person must be cautious in everything by which he worships Allah, whether in belief, speech, or action, and he must not be bold with Allah Mighty and Majestic by legislating in His religion what is not part of it.

I saw 'Amr b. Luhayy b. Qam'a b. Khindif, brother of Bani Ka'b, dragging his Intestines in Fire.

`Amr bin Luhai bin Qam'a bin Khindif was the father of Khuza`a.
عمرو بن لحي بن قُمعة بن خِندف، أبو خزاعةThis is from the well-known knowledge: that 'Amr ibn Luhyi was the first to set up the idols around the House, and it is said that he brought them from al-Balqa', from the land of Sham, imitating the people of al-Balqa'.

The reader: "And to protect the ham. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed
Narrated Sa`id bin Al-Musaiyab: Bahira is a she-camel whose milk is kept for the idols and nobody is allowed to milk it; Sa'iba was the she-camel which they used to set free for their gods and nothing was allowed to be carried on it. Abu Huraira said: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I saw `Amr bin 'Amir Al-Khuza`i (in a dream) dragging his intestines in the Fire, and he was the first person to establish the tradition of setting free the animals (for the sake of their deities)," Wasila is the she-camel which gives birth to a she-camel as its first delivery, and then gives birth to another she-camel as its second delivery. People (in the Pre-lslamic periods of ignorance) used to let that she camel loose for their idols if it gave birth to two she-camels successively without giving birth to a male camel in between. 'Ham' was the male camel which was used for copulation. When it had finished the number of copulations assigned for it, they would let it loose for their idols and excuse it from burdens so that nothing would be carried on it, and they called it the 'Hami.' Abu Huraira said, "I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying so."
أنه رآه يجر قصبه في النارSo they imitated 'Amr ibn Luhyi - and he was a great man among the people of Makkah at that time, because Khuza'ah were the guardians".

And Surat al-An'am, from the words of Allah the Exalted:
And the polytheists assign to Allah from that which He created of crops and livestock a share
وجعلوا لله مما ذرأ من الحرث والأنعام نصيبًاThose will have lost who killed their children in foolishness without knowledge and prohibited what Allah had provided for them
قد خسر الذين قتلوا أولادهم سفهًا بغير علمٍ وحرموا ما رزقهم اللهThe Shaykh : I have to the end of the surah, to the end of the surah.

And those who associate others with Allah say
