Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "The third type is what is highly esteemed in the Shari'ah, such as the Day of 'Ashura, the Day of 'Arafah, the two days of the festivals, the last ten days of the month of Ramadan, and the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah"
The Shaykh : The first
The reader: "and the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah, and the night of Friday and its day, and the first ten days of Muharram, and the like of"
The Shaykh : This is what I have: the first ten days of Muharram
The reader: He said in my copy: "and the first ten days of Muharram, the alif, waw, and dal were dropped"
The Shaykh : Very well.
The reader: "and the first ten days of Muharram, and the like of these noble times. In this category, it may occur"
The Shaykh : It may have occurred in it
The reader: Correction, O Shaykh
The Shaykh : What do you have? It is not clear to me here
The student: It occurs
The Shaykh : It occurs, may Allah will good. We do not break the consensus as long as you have agreed on this. Yes.
The reader: "In this category, it may occur that what is believed to have virtue, and"
The Shaykh : It may occur
The reader: "In this category, it may occur that what is believed to have virtue, and the consequences of that, which become an abomination that is forbidden. For example, some of the people of innovation introduced on the Day of 'Ashura thirsting, sadness, and gathering, and other such matters that were not legislated by Allah the Exalted, nor by His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), nor by any of the Salaf, neither from the family of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) nor from others. But because Allah honored in it the grandson of His Prophet, one of the two masters of the young men of Paradise, and a group of his family"
The Shaykh : And a group
The reader: "and a group of his family, by the hands of the wicked whom Allah humiliated, and this was a calamity for"
The Shaykh : He is referring to whom
The student: To al-Husayn
The Shaykh : To al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him). Yes, and the wicked are his killers. Yes.
The reader: "and this was a calamity for the Muslims, it must be received as calamities are received, with the prescribed seeking of forgiveness from Allah. So some of the people of innovation introduced on such a day what is contrary to what Allah commanded regarding calamities, and they added to that lies and slandering the Companions, who are innocent of the fitnah of al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him), and other matters"
The Shaykh : Ah?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : By Allah, in our copy it is "al-Bara'". Yes.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes
The reader: "and they added to that lies and slandering the Companions, who are innocent of the fitnah of al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him), and other matters that Allah and His Messenger dislike. It was narrated from Fatimah bint al-Husayn from her father al-Husayn ibn 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with them) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Ibn Majah 1600Da’if (Darussalam) Ahmad and Ibn Majah narrated it. So reflect on how al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated such a hadith, and from him his daughter who witnessed his calamity. As for making such days of calamity into mourning gatherings, this is not in the religion of the Muslims; rather, it is"
The Shaykh : From whom
The reader: This is
The Shaykh : Not from the religion of the Muslims. If the copy is as he indicated
The reader: Did he not point, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : No, no, the copy
The reader: "This is not from the religion of the Muslims; rather, it is closer to the religion of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. Then they missed the virtue in fasting this day, and some people introduced in it things based on fabricated hadiths that have no basis, such as the virtue of bathing in it, or applying kohl, or shaking hands. These things and the like of them are all religious innovations, and they are all disliked. The only recommended thing is fasting it. It was narrated regarding being generous to the family in elevated reports"
The Shaykh : In it, the family, in it
The reader: In my copy, it says: It was narrated regarding being generous to the family in elevated reports
The Shaykh : No, in it, in known reports
The reader: Listen
The Shaykh : There is...
The reader: "It was narrated regarding being generous to the family in known reports, the highest of which is the hadith of Ibrahim ibn Muhammad ibn al-Muntashir from his father who said: 'It reached us that whoever is generous to his family on the Day of 'Ashura, Allah will be generous to him for the rest of his year.' Ibn 'Uyaynah narrated it from him. This is a broken report whose speaker is not known. The most likely is that this was fabricated when the partisanship between the Nasibah and the Rafidah appeared, for these people made the Day of 'Ashura a mourning gathering, so those people fabricated in it reports that imply being generous in it, and"
The Shaykh : Being generous in it
The reader: Imply
The Shaykh : Being generous in it
The reader: In my copy, it is "al-Tawsi'"
The Shaykh : Manuscript
The reader: "so those people fabricated in it reports that imply being generous in it and making it a festival, and both are invalid"
