Tracing the hadith: (Deeds will come on the Day of Resurrection, and prayer will come and say: O my Lord, I am prayer. He will say: You are upon good...)

The Shaykh : But here I was surprised by something due to human error. I have two Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims here. In the index, one is number one, his grandfather is Juti al-San'ani, and the other's grandfather is Shadhan. So this hadith must be from the narration of one of them. In "Majma' al-Bahrain," it is not attributed to the majority of grandfathers. Is Muhammad ibn Ibrahims ibn Ishaq there? Or what was it? Ibn Ishaq.
The student : Ibn Ishaq.

The Shaykh : Ibn Ishaq. Ah, the summary here is that I have two Muhammad ibn Ishaqs. The first is al-San'ani; the number was forgotten. The second has numbers from seven thousand seven hundred and fifty-seven to seven thousand seven hundred and sixty-nine. How many hadiths are there? Sixty-nine, twelve, thirteen. From fifty-seven to sixty-nine, how many hadiths? Twelve, twelve. Now we have looked at the author's name and the author's shaykh's name, and we found it. We need to see who the narrator from the Companions is. It is Abu Hurayrah, with a fathah. I am here at Abu Hurayrah. Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, has two or three volumes because of the abundance of his hadiths. But I have here seven thousand seven hundred and fifty-seven, so I take from the Musnad of Abu Hurayrah this number to where? Seven thousand seven hundred and sixty-nine. You follow these twelve hadiths only, and it will come out for you with this ease.
The student : Saving time, meaning it is significant.

The Shaykh : Very much.
The student : This index is specific to you.

The Shaykh : Yes, of course, it is specific.
The student : Of what? The index of "al-Mu'jam al-Awsat" for the three volumes.
Another student: "Majma' al-Bahrain."

The Shaykh : No, no, "al-Awsat" is two volumes. "Majma' al-Bahrain" is arranged according to the chapters of fiqh, so it is easy to extract the hadith. Also, there is a note here: "Majma' al-Bahrain" was written by the author of "Majma' al-Zawa'id," and the one who wrote "Majma' al-Zawa'id" wrote it after "Majma' al-Bahrain" because "Majma' al-Zawa'id" has the chains removed, while "Majma' al-Bahrain" has the chains. So he used "Majma' al-Bahrain" to help with "Majma' al-Zawa'id." Do you understand how? I will look, and this is a rule that is mostly the case; it is rarely missing in any book. If he cites it in "Majma' al-Zawa'id," he goes back to the book of al-Ba'th, and it is in "Majma' al-Bahrain," and I find the same hadith there. This is what happened just now. So instead of attributing it to "Majma' al-Bahrain," which is considered a post office, I go back to the source, which is this book, as is my rule. And he who comes from the sea, the water channels are independent. This is from one side. From another side, here, a benefit mentioned in the original by al-Tabarani may not be mentioned. So now I have reached the chain, and I could have been content with what is in "Majma' al-Bahrain," but I do not want to; I want to go back to the source, the original, which is this book. But I was surprised now by some discrepancy here. I have Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims here. I have Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims ibn Juti al-San'ani, and then I have Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims ibn Shadhan. Which one is it? So I wanted to benefit from the presence of Abu al-'Abd here to correct the missing number from al-San'ani here. But let me start now. Look for me seven thousand seven hundred and fifty-seven. Did the name Muhammad come out for you?
The student : In Shadhan, yes.

The Shaykh : No, no, Muhammad.
The student : Muhammad ibn Ishaq.

The Shaykh : The first of the two Muhammads, the title, I told you.
The student : From the beginning of the volume of the two Muhammads, our Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Is there a title?
The student : I went back to the beginning of the book of Muhammad, where it started.

The Shaykh : My brother, open the first page, may Allah guide you, just, just. Is it not written on the first page?
The student : Small handwriting, I do not know.

The Shaykh : Look, my brother, your first hadith, the first hadith, the first hadith, what name is in it? Any hadith, meaning any hadith at its beginning.
The student : I do not know what this is. Muhammad, what is this? Muhammad...

The Shaykh : Give it to me, my brother...
The student : The second and third pages.

The Shaykh : Put a paper there where you do not have Shadhan, may Allah guide you. The chapter of Qaf, from the name al-Qasim. Yes, where did you get to here? Yes, we need... time, here, Muhammad.
The student : The old one, meaning.

The Shaykh : Here, Muhammad.
The student : At the beginning, only two or three pages, meaning how many pages? A little, three and four, but you will find Muhammad immediately.

The Shaykh : Okay, I did not see the title of Muhammad. Here his name is Qays. Here, from the name Muhammad, this is it...
The student : I meant the title is large; I thought it was from you, not from the author.

The Shaykh : Now, did you see Ibn Shadhan? 7757. Now where do I go back to? To the Musnad of Abu Hurayrah. Here, Abu Hurayrah starts here. This is a volume, this is a second volume, and this is a third volume, and this is the fourth volume, and this is the fifth volume, and this is the sixth volume. That is it. Abu Hurayrah has here how many lines? Now we need number 7757. Here, seven thousand six hundred, seven hundred, forty-five, here, fifty-seven. Okay, did you see 7757? Did you see it? Yes.
The student : It is in front of me.

The Shaykh : In front of you, is it from the hadith of Abu Hurayrah?
The student : From Abu Hurayrah, yes. It said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

The Shaykh : Okay, what is the text?
The student : .

The Shaykh : It is not our hadith. Okay, the last number here in the index is 769. Okay, after 57 there is 61. Look at 761, jump.
The student : From Abu Hurayrah.

The Shaykh : The important thing, look at Abu Hurayrah.
The student : .

The Shaykh : Our hadith.
The student : Our hadith, yes.

The Shaykh : That is it.
The student : From Ibn Shadhan, our Shaykh.

The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : From Ibn Shadhan.

The Shaykh : Ibn Shadhan, yes. Now we need to verify it with Abu Abd al-Rahman to show us where Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims ibn Juti is coming from? You have to bear my mistake now, because the number is missing here.
The student : Muhammad ibn Ishaq.
Another student: "al-Mu'jam al-Awsat," is it not the one that Sa'd ibn Rashid printed?

The Shaykh : Sa'd ibn Rashid is a printer of this book, meaning five...
The student : Meaning this index is for which two volumes?

The Shaykh : My brother, this is the index of the manuscript.
The student : The manuscript. As for the indexes that Sa'd al-Rashid made, they are in three volumes for al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and they are available to you.
Another student: ... Muhammad ibn Ishaq might be at the end.
Another student: Muhammad ibn Ishaq is not mixed with our man here.

The Shaykh : No, if it were, we would have said that hour...
The student : Twelve hadiths, if it were.

The Shaykh : No, no, I want to see the hadith, then you are wrong about Ibn Juti al-San'ani. This is it, we are done with it. Now who is this? "Majma' al-Bahrain," we are done with it. Put it with you. Give it to me here so I can tell you, no, do not close it.
The student : No, my finger is holding it here.

The Shaykh : Yes, from al-Hasan, from Abu Hurayrah. Okay, I am putting this paper here. You do not have activity in reading handwriting, is that not so...
The student : First time.

The Shaykh : First time, take it, go back. You, this is Muhammad, and this name you know: Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Ibrahims ibn Juti al-San'ani. If you fear forgetting, write it on a paper with you. Hold it.
The student : I thought... Ibn Ishaq.
Another student: The Shaykh told you...

The Shaykh : Yes, take this. Look, here it comes. This hadith is in "al-Matalib al-'Aliyah." We need to look at the hadith in "Musnad Ahmad," three hundred and sixty-two.
The student : May Allah give you health, our Shaykh, we are late.

The Shaykh : Early.
The student : Okay, uncle, be at ease.

The Shaykh : It is open for you until the book of al-Ba'th ends. Then the book of al-Jannah and what comes after it will say yes.
The student : ... .

The Shaykh : I did not understand.
The student : There is no tafsir.

The Shaykh : Tafsir of what?
The student : Tafsir, meaning the chapters of tafsir, as in al-Majma'.

The Shaykh : Yes, there is, but in al-Majma', where did he bring it? He did not bring it in tafsir; he brought it in al-Ba'th, in al-Hisab.
