20- Virtues in the Call to Prayer -The Masters and Millennials: Challenges in Living the Way of the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him)- Shaykh Abdurragmaan Khan

In this episode of Masters and Millennials, Shaykh Abdurragmaan Khan covers the virtues of the Call to Prayer (Adhan), the recommended times to sound it, and some of the rulings regarding it. He highlights how the Call to Prayer is a means to Allah’s pleasure, removing His anger, saving us from punishment, attracting good circumstances, and chasing Shaytan away. He encourages, as the scholars have, establishing as a practice, sounding the Call to Prayer on occasions other than for the daily prayer such as at the time of anger, when children are troubled by jinn, when a house is burning, and for safety when the traveler leaves his home. He also talks about some of the rulings regarding the Call to Prayer such as reciting it in our homes—especially now with many of us having to pray in our homes due to lockdown or restrictions—responding to the call of the one who calls to the prayer (mu’adhin) and the importance of the caller having a beautiful voice. He relates a touching incident where a young non-Muslim boy with a beautiful voice sought to mock the Holy Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace) by calling the adhan and who the Holy Prophet made one of his callers to prayer. To end, Shaykh Abdurragmaan says that while many of us may consider these actions to be of little significance, they hold much weight and are the building blocks of what makes us followers of the Holy Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace). By making these practices a habit in our lives, eventually we will find that more of the Sunna of the Holy Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace) will be found within us and our homes.   For more SeekersGuidance podcast shows, visit seekersguidance.org/podcasts.

19- Wisdoms in Prayer -The Masters and Millennials: Challenges in Living the Way of the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him)- Shaykh Abdurragmaan Khan

This podcast is based on the sayings, wisdom, and quotations of the great scholar al-Habib Zayn bin Sumayt, transmitted by one of his students and captured in the book al-Fawa’id al-Mukhtarah. This seminal work contains advice on a wide range of relevant subjects to daily life, drawing on examples from the Haba’ib from Hadramout. Shaykh Abdurragmaan transmits this advice within the context of the modern challenges facing Muslims living in the West. In the last episode, the importance of wudu was discussed as a precursor to the discussion of salaah. It must be noted that this podcast is not meant to cover the essentials of salaah but rather anecdotes and lessons regarding the prayer. Lesson #1 draws on appreciating differing views and not obsessing with one correct view. A view held by one Madhab may be incorrect. However, because the scholars followed a methodology and process and applied ijtihad, deducing law from the Qur’an and Sunna, the ruling reached is a valid one even though it may be incorrect. Lesson #2 pivots on how venerable Shaykhs respect all Schools of law, to the extent that they often follow the Madhab practices of the locality when they travel. Lesson #3 reminds us of the serenity and calmness which must be afforded those engrossed in salaah. If reciting the Qur’an aloud is considered a haraam action if it disturbs them, then what about the use of cell phones in the Masjid?
