THE BOOK ‘O SON’
Al-hamdu lillâhi Rabbil ’âlamîn. Wa-s-salâtu wa-s-salâmu ’alâ
Rasûlinâ Muhammadin wa Âlihi wa Sahbihi ajma’în.
1– O son! Collecting from books written by the scholars of the
Hanafî Madhhab three hundred and sixty hadîth-i-sherîfs and
forty-four khabars and also the seven essentials and the five rukns
and the seven wâjibs and the fourteen sunnats and the twenty-five
mustahabs and the fourteen mufsids of namâz, I have explained
them for you. Adapt your acts and deeds to these teachings so that
you attain fayz and nejât (salvation)!
2– Also for your information, I have collected a thousand and
ninety âdâb (adabs) for you and for other young Muslims like you.
If you adapt your actions and acts of worship to these teachings,
they will be sufficient for you. If you laze, disobey Allâhu ta’âlâ
and cease from these practices and manners, you will be afflicted
with slavery and disgrace in the world and subjected to torment in
the world to come.
If you live up to them and advise your Muslim brothers to do
the same, it will be useful for you. They will say blessings over you.
And Haqq ta’âlâ will accept their invocations. For, a slave will be
pardoned on account of another slave’s invocations for them.

The series of operations,<br />
CE/C 41 - 17.15 ¡ ∑ = tan + 2 = arc tan MS 90 - MR = ≠<br />
gives the altitude for ’asr thânî to be 15°28', and the operations,<br />
15.28 ¡ sin - 17.15 ¡ ¿ MS sin æ 41 sin = ÷ MR cos ÷<br />
41 cos = arc cos ÷ 15 = ≠<br />
gives fadl-i dâir to be 3 hours 21 minutes. The time for ’asr thânî<br />
comes out to be 3:31 in true solar time, 15:45 in mean solar time,<br />
15:49 in standard time, and 10:24 in ghurûbî and in adhânî times.<br />
We can find the time of imsâk on August 13 also with the use<br />
of the first form of the equation (3): Depressing the keys<br />
CE/C 19 sin + 14.50 ¡ MS sin æ 41 sin = ÷ MR cos ÷ 41<br />
cos = arc cos ÷ 15 = ≠ of the Privilege<br />
gives fadl-i dâir (time of hour angle) to be 3 hours 10 minutes. The<br />
time of imsâk for Istanbul in true solar time is obtained to be 3:00<br />
hours in true solar time by subtracting 10 minutes of Tamkin and<br />
adding it to midnight.<br />
Since this time of fadl-i dâir calculated for fajr-i sâdiq cannot<br />
be subtracted from midnight, [from zero, that is,] it is subtracted<br />
from 12 hours and, adding 10 minutes of Tamkin, we obtain the<br />
time of ’ishâ thânî for the night prayer to be exactly 9 o’clock in<br />
true solar time. Adding the fadl-i dâir to the adhânî time of zuhr<br />
corresponding to midnight, [05:07], and subtracting 20 minutes<br />
(two Tamkins), we obtain 7:57, which is the adhânî time of<br />
imsâk.<br />
Let us defermine the time of ’ishâ’-i-awwal on August 13 (in<br />
the solar year 1990+4n). On a programmed CASIO fx-3600 P,<br />

the fadl-i dâir, FD=H is found to be 08:36 hours. Since true time<br />
is 00:00 hours at the time of zawâl, the time of ’ishâ-i-awwal, by<br />
adding 10 minutes of Tamkin, is found to be 8:46 pm (or 20:46) in<br />
true time, 8:55 (or 20:55) in standard time. As the time of zuhr in<br />
adhânî time is 5:07, the adhânî time of ’ishâ’-i-awwal is 13:41 hours<br />
or 1:43 pm.<br />
