Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 8.728<br />

Narrated by<br />

Abu Musa was asked regarding (the inheritance of) a daughter, a son's daughter, and a sister. He said, "The daughter will<br />

take one-half and the sister will take one-half. If you go to Ibn Mas'ud, he will tell you the same." Ibn Mas'ud was asked and<br />

was told of Abu Musa's verdict. Ibn Mas'ud then said, "If I give the same verdict, I would stray and would not be of the rightlyguided.<br />

The verdict I will give in this case, will be the same as the Prophet did, i.e. one-half is for daughter, and one-sixth for<br />

the son's daughter, i.e. both shares make two-thirds of the total property; and the rest is for the sister." Afterwards we cams to<br />

Abu Musa and informed him of Ibn Mas'ud's verdict, whereupon he said, "So, do not ask me for verdicts, as long as this<br />

learned man is among you."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 2.499 Narrated by<br />

Aisha<br />

A lady along with her two daughters came to me asking (for some alms), but she found nothing with me except one date<br />

which I gave to her and she divided it between her two daughters, and did not eat anything herself, and then she got up and<br />

went away. Then the Prophet came in and I informed him about this story. He said, "Whoever is put to trial by these<br />

daughters and he treats them generously (with benevolence) then these daughters will act as a shield for him from Hell-Fire."<br />

(See Hadith No. 24, Vol. 8).<br />

Dhu-n Nurayn<br />

it means 'Possessor of the Two Lights'. It is used to refer to Uthman ibn Affan because he married two of the Prophet's<br />

daughters.<br />

DAWN:<br />

2:187 - Permitted to you on the night of the fasts is the approach to your wives. They are your<br />

garments. And ye are their garments. Allah knoweth what ye used to do secretly among<br />

yourselves; but He turned to you and forgave you; so now associate with them and seek what<br />

Allah hath ordained for you and eat and drink until the white thread of dawn appear to you<br />

distinct from its black thread; then complete your fast till the night appears; but do not<br />

associate with your wives while ye are in retreat in the mosques. Those are limits (set by)<br />

Allah; approach not nigh thereto. Thus doth Allah make clear His signs to men that they may<br />

learn self-restraint. 195196197198199200<br />

20:130 – Therefore be patient with what they say and celebrate (constantly) the praises of thy Lord<br />

before the rising of the sun and before its setting; yea celebrate them for part of the hours of<br />

the night and at the sides of the day: that thou mayest have (spiritual) joy. 26542655<br />

2655 Taraf, plural atraf, may mean sides, ends, extremities. If the day be compared to a tubular figure standing erect, the<br />

top and bottom are clearly marked, but the sides are not so clearly marked: they would be atraf (plural), not tarafain<br />

(dual). Now the prayer before sunrise is clearly Fajr; that before sunset is Asr: "part of the hours of the night" would<br />

indicate Magrib (early night, just after sunset), and Isha, before going to bed. There is left Zuhr, which is in the<br />

indefinite side or middle of the day : it may be soon after the sun's decline from noon, but there is considerable latitude<br />

about the precise hour. The majority of Commentators interpret in favour of the five Canonical prayers, and some<br />

include optional prayers. But I think the words are even more comprehensive. A good man's life is all one sweet Song<br />

of Praise to Allah. (20.130)<br />

32:15 – Only those believe in Our Signs who when they are recited to them fall down in adoration<br />

and celebrate the praises of their Lord nor are they (ever) puffed up with pride. 3647<br />

3647 "In adoration": Sujjadan, or in a posture of prostration, expressive of deep humility and faith. This is the keyword of the<br />

Sura, which bears the title of Sajda. All the Signs of Allah lead our thoughts upwards towards Him, and when they are<br />

expounded, our attitude should be one of humble gratitude to Allah. At this passage it is usual to make a prostration.<br />

(32.15)<br />

32:16- Their limbs do forsake their beds of sleep the while they call on their Lord in Fear and Hope:<br />

and they spend (in charity) out of the sustenance which We have bestowed on them. 36483649<br />

3648 Men and women "breathless with adoration" shun soft, comfortable beds, and luxurious sleep. Their limbs are better<br />

exercised in offices of devotion and prayer, especially by night. Commentators specially refer this to Prayers called<br />

Tahajjud, which are offered after midnight in the small hours of the morning. (32.16)<br />
