Reading from the author's text with commentary and collation of manuscripts: "The sixth aspect of the Sunnah: What Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated

The reader: "The sixth aspect of the Sunnah is what Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated, that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say

We who are last shall be first on the day of resurrection, although [others] were given the Book before us and we were given it after them. It follows that this was their day which was prescribed for them (meaning Friday), but they disagreed about it and God guided us to it. The people come after us with regard to it, the Jews observing the next day and the Christians the day following that.

نحن الآخرون السابقون يوم القيامة بيد أنهم أوتوا الكتاب من قبلنا وأوتيناه من بعدهم ثم هذا يومهم الذي فرض الله عليهم فاختلفوا فيه فهدانا الله له فالناس لنا فيه تبع اليهود غدا والنصارى بعد غد

Mishkat al-Masabih 1354, 1355

Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim"

The Shaykh : Meaning, their day
The student: Sunday

The Shaykh : Friday, but they differed, so the Jews had Saturday and the Christians had Sunday. For this reason, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said Yes
The reader: "And in a wording in Sahih

Although they were given the Scripture before us, and we were given it after them, so this is their day over which they differed, and Allah guided us to it

بيد أنهم أوتوا الكتاب من قبلنا وأوتيناه من بعدهم فهذا يومهم الذي اختلفوا فيه فهدانا الله له

Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:1102

And from Abu Hurayrah and Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with them both), they said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said

It was Friday from which Allah diverted those who were before us. For the Jews (the day set aside for prayer) was Sabt (Saturday), and

أضل الله عن الجمعة من كان قبلنا فكان لليهود يوم السبت وكان

Sahih Muslim 856a

"

The Shaykh : In my copy... Saturday without the word 'day'
The student: It has 'day' in it

The Shaykh : Here, 'day,' yes
The reader: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said

It was Friday from which Allah diverted those who were before us. For the Jews (the day set aside for prayer) was Sabt (Saturday), and for the Christians it was Sunday. And Allah turned towards us and guided us to Friday (as the day of prayer) for us. In fact, He (Allah) made Friday, Saturday and Sunday (as days of prayer). In this order would they (Jews and Christians) come after us on the Day of Resurrection. We are the last of (the Ummahs) among the people in this world and the first among the created to be judged on the Day of Resurrection.

أضل الله عن الجمعة من كان قبلنا فكان لليهود يوم السبت وكان للنصارى يوم الأحد فجاء الله بنا فهدانا ليوم الجمعة فجعل الجمعة والسبت والأحد وكذلك هم تبع لنا يوم القيامة نحن الآخرون من أهل الدنيا والأولون يوم القيامة والأولون يوم القيامة المقضي لهم

Sahih Muslim 856a

And in a narration

before the creation of the worlds.

بينهم قبل الخلائق

Narrated by Muslim
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) named Friday a festival in more than one place and forbade singling it out for fasting because of the meaning of the festival in it. Then, in this hadith, it is mentioned that Friday is for us, just as Saturday is for the Jews and Sunday is for the Christians, and the letter 'lam' implies exclusivity. Then this statement implies division. If it is said: 'These are three garments or three boys: this one is for me, this one is for Zayd, and this one is for 'Amr,' that necessitates that each one is exclusive to what was assigned to him, and no one else shares in it, and no one else shares in it with him. If"

The Shaykh : We do not have a waw for 'him' [in the phrase] 'no one shares in it.' It is indicated in the manuscript
The reader: No

The Shaykh : Put it in the manuscript
The reader: "So if we share with them in their festival on the day of Saturday, or the festival, or the festival of the day of Sunday, we would contradict this hadith. And if this is the case with the weekly festival, then it is the same with the annual festival, for there is no difference. Rather, if this is the case with a festival known by the Arabic calendar, how much more so with the festivals of the non-Arab disbelievers, which are not known except by the Roman, Coptic, Persian, or"

The Shaykh : Roman or Coptic
The reader: "which are not known except by the Roman, Coptic, Persian, or Hebrew calendar, or similar. And his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)

Yet they were given the Book before us, and we were given it after them. This is the day about which they differed, so Allah guided us to it.

بيد أنهم أوتوا الكتاب من قبلنا وأوتيناه من بعدهم فهذا يومهم الذي اختلفوا فيه فهدانا الله

Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:1102

means: 'because of,' as it is narrated that he said

I am the most eloquent of the Arabs, yet I am from Quraysh, and I was fostered in

أنا أفصح العرب بيد أني من قريش واسترضعت في

"

The Shaykh : Meaning, 'bi-id' [means] 'because of'
The reader: "

and I was fostered in Banu Sa'd ibn Bakr.

واسترضعت في بني سعد بن بكر

And the meaning, and Allah knows best, is: We are the last in creation and the first in the reckoning and entering Paradise, as it has come in the authentic hadith that this Ummah is the first of the nations to enter Paradise, and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the first for whom the gate of Paradise is opened. And that is because we were given the Scripture after them, so we were guided to the festival that preceded the other two festivals, over which they differed, and our righteous deeds became before their deeds. So when we preceded them to guidance and righteous deeds, we were made to precede them in the reward of righteous deeds. And whoever says that 'bi-id' here means 'other than' has strayed far. The sixth aspect"

The Shaykh : Some scholars say that 'bi-id' means 'other than,' as... meaning 'other than I am from Quraysh.' And they said that this is from the category of affirming praise with what resembles blame, because if he said Yes, 'bi-id' I mean 'because of.' I, we were given the Scripture. Yes
The reader: "The seventh aspect of the Sunnah is what Kuraib, the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), narrated. He said: 'I was sent'"

The Shaykh : Questions, yes, put them... yes
