MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND

ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY

“ The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him said, "Indeed, neither Bilāl's (2) call to prayer (3) nor the vertical dawn (4)should deprive you of your pre-dawn meal (1); rather it is the dawn which spreads along the horizon (5) (that signals the start of fasting)." Footnotes: (1) Saḥūr: an optional, yet desirable, meal eaten before dawn by Muslims planning to fast that day. (2) Bilāl Ibn-Rabāḥ is one of the companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, who is famous for calling for prayers in Madīnah. (3) The call to prayer (Athān) is a long call announcing the time of prayer. It is usually made up to twenty minutes before the commencement of prayer to give worshippers time to prepare for prayer; it is called even longer before the dawn prayer (Fajr), the first prescribed prayer of the day that takes place before sunrise. (4) The vertical dawn, also known as the false dawn, is indicated by rays that spread vertically in the sky. This occurs about twenty minutes before the true dawn. (5) The second dawn, also known as the true dawn, is indicated by a white line that spreads parallel to the horizon. The occurrence of the true dawn signals the start of the dawn prayer's time and, consequentially, the beginning of fasting. ”

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِى صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لاَ يَجْزِى وَلَدٌ وَالِدًا إِلاَّ أَنْ يَجِدَهُ مَمْلُوكًا فَيَشْتَرِيَهُ فَيُعْتِقَهُ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِى صَالِحٍ. وَقَدْ رَوَى سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِىُّ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِى صَالِحٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ.

The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "A child can never repay a parent, unless he finds him (1) enslaved, and buys him to set him free (2)."
