00:00As-salamu alaykum. Today we are learning important rulings about our prayer environment and covering
00:10the aura. What if you spread a pure cloth over an impure floor and pray on it? Is that prayer
00:16valid? If the smell or color of the impurity beneath does not appear on the upper cloth,
00:21then your prayer is valid. What if the place is pure, but an impurity nearby has an odor that
00:26reaches you while praying? The prayer is valid, but intentionally choosing such a place is not
00:32appropriate for a worshiper. Now let's move to the fourth condition of prayer, covering the aura.
00:37For a man, it is obligatory to cover from the navel to the knees, both during and outside of prayer.
00:44For a woman, the entire body must be covered except for the face, hands, and feet. Remember these rules
00:50to ensure your prayer is perfect. Question. If a part of the aura becomes uncovered unintentionally,
00:56what is the ruling? Answer. If one-fourth of a limb becomes exposed and remains uncovered for the
01:03duration in which subhanah rabbi al-azm can be recited three times, then the prayer will be invalid.
01:10If it is covered immediately upon exposure, the prayer will remain valid. Question. If a person
01:16performs prayer naked in darkness, what is the ruling? Answer. If clothing is available and the person
01:23performs prayer with an uncovered body, the prayer will not be valid, whether performed in darkness
01:28or in light. Question. What if there is absolutely no clothing? Answer. Use anything like leaves or a mat.
01:37If nothing is found, pray while sitting and perform bowing and prostration by gestures.
01:41We learn about the fifth condition of prayer, time. This means every prayer must be offered within its
01:47specifically prescribed time. If you pray before the time starts, it isn't valid. If you pray after the
01:54time passes, it's a makeup prayer called qada. During the day and night, five prayers are obligatory.
02:00In addition to these, the wider prayer is also wajib or necessary. There are different types of
02:06religious acts we should know. Fard, wajib, sunnah, and nafal. Let's see the difference.
02:11Fard is a definite obligation from Allah. Denying it is very serious. Wajib is also required,
02:18and skipping either without a good reason is a sin. Sunnah are acts our Prophet Muhammad performed.
02:25Nafal are extra acts. Doing them brings us even more rewards from Allah. Remember kids,
02:30performing our prayers on time is the key to success. Question. How many types of fard are there?
02:36Answer. There are two types. Fard ayin, an obligation that is required from every individual.
02:42Whoever abandons it without excuse becomes sinful. Fard kifaya, an obligation which, if fulfilled by
02:49some members of the community, is lifted from the rest. If no one performs it, then all are sinful.
02:54Question. How many types of sunnah are there? Answer. There are two types. Sunnah muakata,
03:00an act which the Prophet consistently performed or consistently commanded, and did not leave without
03:06an excuse. Abandoning it without excuse is sinful, and making a habit of leaving it is a serious sin.
03:13Sunnah gair muakata, an act which the Prophet performed most of the time but occasionally left
03:18without excuse. Performing it carries more reward than a recommended act, and leaving it carries no sin.
03:24These are also called Sunnah Zawaid.
