The Dajjal And The Return of Jesus_ Yusuf Ibn Abdullah Ibn Yusuf Al Wabil

Index of Arabic Words
Du'd: supplication, invocation, it is an action of worship that
may only be directed to Allah. It is of two types, supplication
through worship (du'd 'ibddah) and supplication of request
(du'd mas'a/ah). The first type of du'd can be understood
when one understands that every act of worship is done with
the unstated plea that Allah accept that action of worship
and the desire to draw closer to him; and hence attain His
pleasure. Hence every action of worship is a type of request
to Allah. The second type of du'd is whereby one explicitly
asks his Lord of something such as 'O Allah! Grant me good
in this world and the Hereafter.' The second type includes
the first type and the first type necessitates the second type.
Hadith: A text attributed to the Prophet (:i) describing his actions,
words, descriptions and tacit approvals. It consists of
two portions, the body of the text (matn) and the isndd. Rarely
the term is also used to refer to a text attributed to a Companion
or a Tabi'i.
f:liifiz· pl. f;ujfdz. f:Iadith Master, commonly referred to one who
has memorised at least 100,000 }::iadiths.
f:lasan: good, fair. A l:iadith whose isndd is continuously linked of
just, morally upright narrators but whose precision (cfab!) falls
short of the requirements of the ~a}::iil:i l:iadith; containing no
irregularity (shddh) and no hidden defect ('ii/ah). A l:iadith can
be l:iasan in and of itself, or contain a defect but still be ruled
to be so due to supporting evidences.
lf;sdn: beneficence, excellence. To worship Allah as if one is seeing
Him, and knowing that even though one sees Him not,
He sees the servant.
