Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And it has also reached me that they go out on the Thursday before that, or on Saturday, or otherwise, to the graves, they incense them, and likewise they slaughter at these times, and they believe that in the incense there is blessing and the repelling of harm, beyond it being pleasant, and they count it among the offerings like the slaughtered animals, and they play it with a brass instrument, striking it as if it were a small bell, and with the words of the author, and they crucify on the doors of their houses, among other abominable matters"
The Shaykh : Perhaps they mean they crucify, that is, they place the cross
The reader: He said, O Shaykh, in the printed edition "on the door of the house"
The Shaykh : Ah?
The reader: He means they crucify it; in the printed edition "on the door of the house, and the meaning of 'they crucify the door of the house,' and Allah knows best, is that they place the cross on it for this occasion"
The Shaykh : Yes, there is no problem
The reader: "And they crucify on the doors of their houses, among other abominable matters. I do not know all of what they do; I have only mentioned what I have seen many Muslims do, and its origin is taken from them, to the extent that during the period of Thursday, the markets remain" ...
The Shaykh : What?
The reader: "To the extent that during the period of Thursday"
The Shaykh : And the better is the kasrah, to the extent that
The reader: "To the extent that during the period of Thursday"
The Shaykh : I have, to the extent that it was
The reader: To the extent that it was
The Shaykh : And what comes after?
The reader: "To the extent that during the period of Thursday, the markets remain filled"
The Shaykh : He did not indicate ...
The student: He indicated
The Shaykh : He indicated, and what does he say?
The student: He says that it was dropped from alif, jim, and dal
The Shaykh : Do you have this, O Khalid?
The reader: Yes, I have it
The Shaykh : Yes, what were you saying? I have it. Why are you talking to Hajjaj?
The reader: Yes, by Allah, O Shaykh ...
The Shaykh : Yes, or all of it
The reader: Listen
The Shaykh : Or all of them
The reader: With their plural
The Shaykh : To the masses of the common people, or all of them
The reader: Correction, O Shaykh
The Shaykh : Yes, that is better
The reader: "And it has been cast upon the masses of the common people, or all of them, except whom Allah wills. And by the common people here I mean: everyone who does not know the reality of Islam, for many of those who claim affiliation with jurisprudence or religion have participated in that. It has been cast upon them that this incensed incantation" The incensed one, O Shaykh
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The reader: "It has been cast upon them that this incensed incantation, they benefit from its blessing, from the evil eye, sorcery, diseases, and crawling creatures, and they draw"
The Shaykh : And now, some of the charlatans among us ask the patient to incense himself, to incense himself with such-and-such, slaughter the black rooster, do such-and-such, from what they think the jinn are ordering them to do. And therefore, it is not permissible for a person to rely on such charlatanism. Yes, that is right.
The reader: "And they draw images of snakes and scorpions on papers and paste them in their houses, believing that those images, the doer of which is cursed"
The Shaykh : That we
The reader: "That those images, the doer of which is cursed"
The Shaykh : that
The reader: "That those images, the doer of which is cursed"
The Shaykh : that
The reader: That those images
The Shaykh : Yes.
The reader: The doer of which is cursed
The Shaykh : Yes, the doer of which is cursed
The reader: "Believing that those images, the doer of which is cursed, in which the angels do not enter a house, prevent crawling creatures, and it is a type of the talismans of the Sabians"
The reader: "Then many of them, as has reached me, crucify the door"
The Shaykh : This is found now; I hear that some of them place wolf skins in their homes and claim that the jinn are repelled by them, and this has no truth. And some of them bring a small wolf cub and keep it with them. The wolf does not eat anything but meat; you find he loses a lot on it, buying meat, half for the household and half for this wolf. And this is wrong. Yes.
The Shaykh : Perhaps they mean they crucify, that is, they place the cross
The reader: He said, O Shaykh, in the printed edition "on the door of the house"
