 السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته وركم to إحقام SOS the Ramadan edition I'm your host Mosin Shah and with me is Sheikh Ali Baash السلام عليكم الشيخنة السلام عليكم ورحمة الله الحمد لله بخير شيخنة let us continue our discussion on the إحقام by Sadik Shirazi on SOM and let us let me ask you what is the Makru Haat with SOM إن شاء الله أعوض بالله السميع عن عليم من الشيطان الرجيم بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم وصل الله على محمد وآله الطيبين الطاهرين الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ورحمه ورحمه ورحمه ما يوجد فيه as there are forbidden acts in which invalidates the fast there are also Makru Haat the dislikes in this wajib as we have this issue in other Ibadat in Salah for example there are Makru Haat in Salah dislikes also with this regard we have for the one who is in the state of fasting he must also better for him you know it's Makru means sometimes less reward less thawab sometimes you get less thawab and reward because you did this Makru a dislike something that Allah didn't like so there are people who are seeking for perfection in this world those who wish to elevate in the high ranks of morality and spirituality exactly and to perfect their soul and purify their soul from any act of wrongdoing for example and bad manners and of course we have and we have so with regard to the fasting there are Makru Haat let's begin with the first one the first Makru in regard to the fasting is to use eye drop in the eyes that's Makru sometimes it reaches the throat sometimes so what are you saying it doesn't evaluate the fast it doesn't break the fast but it's better to not do it exactly it's Makru to use the eye drops in overall that's one of the Makru Haat we try to avoid it so we try to use it in the night time or before the Suhoor of Fejr time for example and the better we apply these the more we get of course the rewards and less we get the consequences now the second Makru in this regard is to use kuhl in the eye so something like a mascara but as kuhl goes inside the eye the black kuhl and that is especially if the taste reaches the throat sometimes you use that kuhl and it reaches the throat the taste so that's Makru to apply it so if you want to apply it let's say as a female they can apply it at night they are free to use it but in the daytime the Qiyam time it's better to avoid using the kuhl the third Makru is to do anything which causes weakness to the one's body so let's say doing Qujama for example go into the gym anything that weakens the one's body and excessive exercise excessive exercise let's say whatever causes the person to be in the state of exhaustion and tiredness to avoid it because you are in the state of fasting it's only 29 or 30 days in the year and that's your opportunity to fast and to give your soul and body an exercise and training so we try to avoid these things so don't go over the top exactly or just keep it to minimal exactly just a few minutes let's say and if you want to do let's say Qujama or blood test for example and that affects you do it in the nighttime or do it after the month of Ramadan if that case is able to be done the fourth Makru is also to use some kind of nozzle sprays okay in which it does not reach the throat because if it reaches the throat then it will make the fasting void so the nozzle spray in which does not reach the throat it's just to use it sometimes for medical purposes for example so if you got a block nose or something exactly it's better to use it at nighttime again so that's Makruh to be used in the daytime of the month of Ramadan also the fifth Makruh is to smell the scent of plants okay there are particular plants which has specific smells and it is mentioned in some of the fiqh books that one of the plants which has scent in a specific smell that they used in the old days they used to smell it to make it not to feel thirsty just takes away the thirst the feeling of thirst okay so they smell it and if they are feeling thirsty that will actually go from them so that could be one of the reasons okay so we try to avoid smelling the plants which have specific scents yes another number six Makruh is for specifically for the woman to sit inside the water oh so let's say it's sitting inside a pond of water okay or a pool for example and so forth that's Makruh for the woman to do so the seventh Makruh is to use not the liquid injection as we mentioned the enema which makes the the fasting void but the Makruh is to use a solid injection okay for the purpose of treating that specific exactly that location of the body so the liquid is not allowed as I mentioned the enema but the solid one is allowed but it's Makruh to be used okay which is called الحقن الجامد so we try to avoid it in the daytime for the month from Allah the eighth Makruh is to make your clothes moist and wet while you're fasting especially if you're in the summertime you need to cool down your body due to the overheat so that's Makruh again to make your clothes wet and moist that's one of the Makruhat the ninth Makruh is to pull your teeth out and whatever causes bleeding in your mouth so it could be to do the teeth or even gums for example treating your gums in the daytime when you go to the dentist for example so it's better to avoid the dentist either in the month from Allah or you go in the nighttime if they are open otherwise it's Makruh you can but you have to make sure that nothing goes inside your throat no liquid goes inside your throat which makes you fast yes exactly the number 10 of the Makruhat is to brush your teeth with the wet mswaq mswaq as mentioned as swaq or even the brush itself so it's Makruh to brush with the wet to bring moisture back into the mouth exactly to bring the moisture outside moisture inside your teeth of course if you swallow this external moist or wetness inside your throat then that will avoid and makes your so invalid and number 11 is to put water and rinse out the water in your mouth some people like to cool themselves down so they put water inside their mouth and then they rinse out that's Makruh you have to avoid this Makruh and of course if there's no reason sometimes there's a reason that's fine you for example inhale or sniff water inside your mouth inside your nose for example that's fine that's for the purpose of مستحب or even you put water in your mouth for the Wulu but other than that for no reason that's Makruh to do so so these are the main Makruhat we have two more Makruh let me mention it again one of the Makruhat for those who are married for the couples is to avoid kissing each other so for the for example it's mainly for the for the husband for the male that it's Makruh for him to kiss his wife while he is in the state of fasting as I've mentioned previously that in the nighttime they're free so in the daytime it's Makruh for them to do this act and better to avoid it number 13 and the last one whatsoever that triggers the last and temptation so we try to avoid it if I think that looking at let's say even the wife the Halal look would rose the the Shahu and the last then I have to avoid it so anything that raises and roses the the last and temptation I try to avoid it's Makruh and of course if that was with the intention of ejaculation the looking or the touching then that's definitely will makes the soul battle as the said as the obligatory precaution أحوط so it's important that we try to avoid it in this holy month in the daytime at least because in the nighttime you're free but in the daytime these are Makruh and we try to avoid reaching the situation where we commit these breaking of the fast and eventually we end up with doing the Qada and sometimes paying the Qafara as well so we try to avoid it so prevention is the best cure exactly you know you've mentioned Makruh what about the most what do you think you know you recommend for us to do Ramadan while fasting well mustahabbat in the month of Ramadan is the best time for the one to apply the mustahab and also avoid the Makruh it's the best time for the one to practice get this opportunity to practice the mustahab so you need to add up as a plus as an addition to the Wajib and Haram is to also refrain from the Makruh and practice and implement the mustahab as well it's the best place place and time and especially if you are in a holy shrine let's say you're in Ziyara for example it's the best place and the best time the month of Ramadan to apply the mustahabbat so for example for the saim for the one who is fasting it's mustahab to have the perfume and the narration says that it's a gift for the one who is fasting using and applying perfume other mustahabbat masha'Allah plenty reading the Holy Quran we try to finish one juz of Quran as much as we can a day there are mustahab prayers in every night so you have to look back مفاتح جنان for example to see the prayers the prayers of the first night mustahab let's say you read this much of particular Surah for example you repeat that Surah and so forth other nights the four rak'a it reaches up to eight rak'a for example and so forth we try to as much as we can apply these mustahabbat in this holy month so we can elevate spiritually and gain the perfection level as much as we can reading the Quran as I've mentioned helping the poor paying charity that's the best opportunity feeding those who are in need for example even if those who are in need let's say they might be relatives invite them for iftar for example those who are for example friends, family and also the bond of kinship Salatul Rahim again it's the best time and month for the one to link this bond and reconnect with his relatives and Aqareb it's the best month also reading دعاء the دعاء of افتتاح for example every night you have plenty of دعاء ما شاء الله for the month of Ramadan in صحيفة سجاد from سجاد عليه السلام plenty of ادعية you can read and it's the best time I think to refer back to these books of ادعية to ponder not only just to read the dua and move on because you can't understand Arabic together translation of the dua and try to understand the meanings of each line of that dua and of course for the one to make his اخلاق better in this month again a great opportunity to make your manners and morality better and better in this month if I used to get angry many times during the day then in this month I try to reduce it day by day if I used to let's say اعوذ بالله God forbid I swear or lie or backbite in this month is the time where I can reduce them and so forth that's the best opportunity for purification of the soul of the mind from the bad thoughts sometimes some people have corrupt thoughts about the belief for example in أهلبيت عليه السلام for example discuss with with علامة and so forth listen to the lectures that's the best opportunity I think if we spend a few hours a day in the month of Ramadan on these aspects I think by the end of the month will achieve a great change إن شاء الله إن شاء الله إن شاء الله thank you
