[@MasjidRibat]

@Malik Sohaib you wrote “the reference from muwatta continues with a response from sahl ibn saad that this hadīth is not from prophet but was an order given by someone in power” that is a lie .. no where in the muwatta does it state that in fact to the opposite in the muwatta it states: Book 9, Number 9.15.50: Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Hazim ibn Dinar that Sahl ibn Sad said, “People used to be ordered to place their right hands on their left forearms in the prayer.” Abu Hazim added, “I know for sure that Sahl traces that back to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.”

[@MasjidRibat]

@Malik Sohaib my dear brother those later scholars and their commentary is valuable and welcome but the fact remains that Hamza Yusuf lied when he said “none of the four schools considered it Sunnah to fold them hands” please admit the truth. And you also told a lie (maybe unknowingly) regarding a response from sahl ibn saad in the muwatta. Please please at least admit it and be honest. As Muslims at least we should be honest. You can take any opinion you like and we respect all the scholars of Islām but let’s be honest with our references

@@HalilKangal The shaykh is right that qabd (folding hands) is sunnah in maliki school however he omitted the fact that Practices of Medinans is a proof for us, therefore you cannot say sadl (dangling) is not sunnah. If it is not then that means the usool of Maliki school are wrong. In addition to that, the Mudawannah that was compiled by imam Malik's students is a book regrouping all of his fatawa and rulings. The Mudawannah was finished after the Muwatta (hadith compilation of Malik) therefore some Maliki scholars (probably the majority) believe that his statements in Mudawannah as narrated by his best student, Ibn al Qasim, are the relied upon rulings. If these statements contradict what he reports in Muwatta then we take the statement. Thus dangling is the relied upon ruling and not folding hands. However I don't follow this opinion, there is another opinion that the Muwatta is the most complete and coherent source for Maliki fiqh as such I pray by folding my hands. So Shaykh Uthman is right by saying it's a sunnah and there is proof but he cannot dismiss 1300 years of ijtihad.

[@kamranabbasi6757]

Ya Shaikh what about Musannaf ibn Abi Shaybah where it is mentioned under the heading 'Sahaba who did not fold the hand' that Abdullah ibn Zubair(R) used to do irsalul yadain (did not fold his hand in Salah). It is mentioned in Sunan Al Kubra Al Bayhaqi that Abdullah ibn Zubair (R) learnt Salah from Abu Bakr (R).

[@Adrian-yf1zg]

His point was 3 different schools, all came to the same conclusion on a matter... Some mailkis including imam malik, some tabi'ee said ibn al musayib, all shia, all ibadiyah (khawarij).... There is no way 3 groups would conspire upon an action... And it is far likelier that umayyad tried to kill the practice within sunni circles. That's why all the early schools differ on where to place the hands. The earliest schools of sects, khawarij and shiaa, kept their practice as did malikis. These malikis followed the practice of hundreds if not thousands of people. Following practice of people is far more reliable than one obscure hadith in sahih ibn khuzaymah

[@logiic8835]

Why

[@araziz]

'Aml ahl-Madinah is an usuli principle in the Maliki school. That is the primary basis of sadl/irsal, not hadiths. So your request for Hamza Yusuf to bring one sahih hadith showing sadl wouldn't be a proof against him or Malikis even if he couldn't provide such a hadith (we'll assume he can't for the sake of argument), because for Malikis, the strongest basis for sadl is 'Aml ahl-Madinah, not hadith. 'Aml ahl-Madinah isn't authoritative for the Hanbalis, Shafiis, or Hanafis, but for Malikis, obviously it is. Different usuli principles are what make the madhabs different. All of the madhabs have unique usuli principles that aren't shared by the other schools. So this comes down to a fundamental usuli difference more so than a discussion about presenting a sahih hadith. And to find the Maliki opinion on a topic, the most authoritative book to look in is Mukhtasar Khalil, not the Muwatta, which is more of a hadith book. This is well known to anyone familiar with the Maliki school. And in Mukhtasar Khalil and its various shuruh, it is clear that the relied upon opinion in the Maliki school is sadl, which is mentioned in the section of mandubat of the prayer. Some Maliki scholars preferred folding the hands, sure, I'm not negating that. But the final word on this issue is in Mukhtasar Khalil, and it says sadl is mandub in the fard prayer, and folding the hands is disliked in the fard prayer. Malikis only quote hadiths (which admittedly, don't explicitly support sadl, but it can arguably be inferred from some of them) as secondary proofs to prove sadl. So this issue is rooted in differences in usul. Your critique is deficient and unfair without addressing ‘aml ahl-Madinah. As for Hamza Yusuf’s claim that folding the hands isn't a sunnah in any of the four madhabs, I agree, that was an incorrect claim.

@@araziz Firstly akhī, I wanted to commend your good akhlāq and I appreciate your honesty. I wanted to respectfully contest some of things you mentioned in regards to the madhhab. Undoubtedly, the madhhab is unique in its uṣūl (principles) by emphasizing on the actions of the people of al-Madīnah. However, the other three madhāhib do acknowledge the actions of the people of al-Madīnah as authoritative. There is consensus on this as mentioned by Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah in his Majmū‘ al-Fatāwa (20/306). The difference between the Mālikī madhhab and the other three is that our madhhab *emphasises* on the ‘Amal Ahl il-Madīnah, whilst the others do not. In regards to what is the most authoritative book within the madhhab has always been five books: al-Muwaṭṭa by Mālik ibn Anas, al-Mudawwanah by Saḥnūn ibn Sa‘eed at-Tanūkhī (d. 240 AH), al-Wādhiḥah by ‘Abd al-Malik ibn Ḥabīb as-Sulamī (d. 238 AH), al-‘Utbiyyah by Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad al-‘Utbī (d. 255 AH), and al-Muwāziyyah by Ibn al-Mawāz al-Iskandarānī (d. 269 AH). بارك الله فيك اخي العزيز

[@araziz]

@@ibnnuhal-maliki6030 Assalamu alaikum. I studied the Hanafi madhab primarily, and the others a little. In my studies of the Hanafi school, which has spanned many years, I can confidently say that I’ve never seen the practice of the people of Madinah used as an evidence for a Hanafi position. The ‘amal of the people of Kufa would be more authoritative for Hanafis, to the extent that a certain ‘Amal had authority, but ultimately the positions have Quran and hadith evidence to support them, within the Hanafi Usul framework. I won’t go so far as to say the ‘amal of Madinah has no relevance, I don’t have an encyclopedic knowledge of the Hanafi school and i don’t claim to be an expert, but the ‘amal of Madinah is certainly not a very significant usuli principle for Hanafis. I think my statement regarding its relative status as not being authoritative in the other schools was accurate. It may have some relevance, but it isn’t authoritative. Authoritative, in my understanding, means it has an important status as major principle of Usul in the other schools. Perhaps this is just a semantic issue of what authoritative means. However, if you can quote major scholars of the Hanafi and Shafi’i schools contradicting me, I’m open to hearing it. It’s always better to prove something you want to claim about a school from scholars that follow that school, from specific texts in the school. Often when scholars outside of a school mention rulings of schools they don’t follow, they make errors. Allah knows best. I’ve studied some Maliki fiqh, but I’m far from proficient. From Maliki muftis and students of knowledge I know, they say Mukhtasar Khalil is where you go for the relied upon Maliki opinion generally, along with its relied upon commentaries such as al-Sharh al-Kabir and others, and also al-Sharh al-Sagheer ‘ala Aqrab al-masalik. This is the standard among the many Malikis I know, particularly those from and who studied in Mauritania, but not exclusively those from Mauritania. I find it odd that you don’t include Mukhtasar Khalil in your list. I’m confident in my information, but we can agree to disagree on what texts are most authoritative for finding the fatwa position.

24:03 imam Malik (rahmahulla) put hadith in his muwatta, even if he didn't practice them outright. Imam Malik knew of the hadith of "putting the fight hand over the left" but he still saw the people of madina performing sadl which is why he performed sadl. Secondly, imam malik would avoid doing certain things so that the people who followed him wouldn't view those things as fard. For example, it's not fard to clasp one's hands in salah. Another example, in the maliki madhab we end salah with 1 salam instead of 2. Once again this is because the 1st salam is fard and the 2nd is a sunnah. This is a case in ALL the other madhahib as well. And Allah (swt) knows best.

[@muhjm1946]

Alhamdu lillaahi Rabbil alamin. AsSalaamuAlaikum Shaykh Uthman, thank you for your explanation and proofs. When Shaykh Hamza Yusuf said that no has said where the hands should be place. With no disrespect I extend my salaam and love to brother Shaykh Yusuf, but I believe he has made a mistake in his statement. In Hadith Susan An-Nasa’i, chapter 9, page 24. 888. It was narrated that Musa bin Umair Al-Anbari and Qais bin Sulaymaniyah Al-Anbari said: Alqamah bin Wail told us that his father said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) when he was standing in prayer, holding his left hand with his right. (sahih). Chapter 10. 889. It says: It was narrated that Al-Hajjaj bin Abi Zainab said: I heard Abu Uthman narrate that Ibn Masud said: The Prophet (PBUH) saw me when I placed my left hand on my right in prayer. He took hold of my right hand and place it on my left. (Hasan). Chapter 11. 890. Says: Wail bin Hujr said: I said I am going to watch how the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) prays. So I watched him and he stood and said the Takbir, and raised his hands until they were in level with his ears, then he placed his right hand over his left hand, wrist and lower forearm. When he wanted to bow he raised his hands likewise, and placed his hands on his knees. When he raised his head, he raised his hands likewise. Then he prostrated and placed his hands in level with his ears. Then he sat up and placed his left leg under him, he put his left hand on his left thigh and knee, and he put the edge of his right elbow on his his right thigh, then he held two of his fingers together and made a circle, and raised hid forefinger, and I saw him moving it and supplication with it. (Sahih). To say there’s no Hadith, if that’s what he said that is a mistake. We all make mistakes. The Shaykh can correct his statement. Also there is another Hadith concerning putting hand on one’s waist. Chapter 12. 891. It says: It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (PBUH) forbade praying with one’s hands on one’s waist. (Sahih). This demonstrates that in the posture of upright standing the Qiyam in prayer, the right hand should be placed upon the left in a way grasping it. This is the course of action of the vast majority of scholars. During the performance of every major component Rukn of the obligatory prayer, one or the other position of hands has been prescribed. Placing the hands on the waist or the flank or slender part above the hips is forbidden because it would contradict the legislates position of where the hand is to be placed. It has been started that Satan stands thusly. Allah knows best.

[@scafutos]

Separately, folding the hands is sunnah, not fardh. What you quote is correct, but the opinions of fiqh from non Maliki scholars (Rahmatulah alay). This is clear and not a point of debate across schools. Sadl is the preferred method of Qiyam of the mashaykh al Malikiya, and perfectly acceptable. Some do not, primarily in North Africa due to political pressure tou may be unaware of. Lastly, Imam Maliki prayed sadl, his students prayed sadl, due to fiqh reasons, not due to the false claim (which you did not say) that he only prayed sadl due to dislocated arms. This is a fabrication and shouldn’t be repeated. Again, may Allah preserve and bless you and all of us..

[@TheGEOPOLITICIANGUY]

wait on second thought (watching the vid again, had to replay to really soak it in), and I still like this video. And love your work in general - but you didnt present exactly “proof” with primary evidence in regard to the actual Four great imams and THEIR own exact thoughts / rather you used later great scholars and their thoughts on what was what …(because thats what Hamza was claiming no? or am i missing something?) like for instance, ill start with the who “ordered” him thing, while it it at all makes logical sense that it might have been the Prophet (saw) as the one scholar described when Aisha said she was ordered, logically one should at least think it was via the order of Muhammad (saw) but isnt this still guess work in all reality? Also, how do u know that those making the commentaries (though their all great scholars) know for “sure” that the 4 imams thought was these actions were “sunnah” specifically ? - they themselves provide no primary evidence from the imams…. its essentially “he meant this” or “he meant that” - I know these are fantastic scholars (may Allah set have mercy on all of them)… but i’m getting confused here, where is their own evidence, rather its their “interpretations” - because listen, even I believe qadl has at least strong hadiths (whether the placement is ambiguous or not) while sadl ONLY as the ‘amal of the medinites via Malik (which is still strong though tbh) but nevertheless, many of these presented evidences seem to also be “guess work” by the commentators/later scholars themselves, and thats whether they use strong analogical reasoning or not -- and i have yet to see the evidence that the 4 imams (as in by their OWN words/writing) think this is for sure sunnah …. which is what I THINK hamza meant by that - because it would be nutty to think that the entire ulama of each madhhab all said it was not “sunnah” AND AGAIN, i think Qadl is strong but this was not “proof” of the 4 imams saying it was sunnah - rather they take great opinions of qadl due to the various ahādiths - but most of your evidence was secondary sources from great scholars who use their own interpretations like i def think there are some strong hadiths pertaining to above the naval - though MOST (not all) of folding on the chest seem to always be weak somewhere in the narrations - so again, i agree with you via the Big Picture of it all, if you wjll- but does this actually negate hamzas LITERAL statement that non of the 4 imams themselves sald it was sunnah? and im actually wondering? not even saying your wrong or hamza is right - but because now watching this a second time around, I always thought Hanafi and Hanbal directly said its a direct sunnah rather than its just their interpretation of what is Sunnah - but now after watching again, where do u show that the 4 great imams themselves said any of this? And again, yes I know… Hanafi’s “opinion” via hadith literature was that the hand placement was below, Hanbal’s “opinion” was either below or above the naval - but thats about it, where is the hard evidence that they claimed these positions *themselves* to be the Sunnah - because Malik (whether he reported a hadith contrary to his belief or not) certainly did not think it was sunnah - and Shafi’i, even in his famous work (Kitab al-Umm) said while his opinion was above the naval (as he believed it to be the strongest), he allowed all his students to do either qadl below and above and sadl as well, since he directly says there is not strong enough evidence (as of yet) to say for sure…..

Iraq, where hadiths were forged, invented, was the land of much lies, according to Ibn Taymiyyah: "This is why none of the Muslim scholars believed that the consensus of any of the cities except Madina was a proof which must be followed''. ibn Thabit, the famous Companion, stated, "When you see the people of Madina doing something, know that it is the sunna''.

Because anybody including he himself knows that some of the imams consider it a sunnah of the prayer, but not waajib. Imaam as Shafi'i himself says about Sadl that you can do it if you wish. But this video doesn't come off to me as naseehah it comes off as toxic and antagonistic to Hamza Yusuf who is himself an upright, honest person.

But I know for a fact that Hamza Yusuf is an upright person, he doesn't ever attack people, I have no reason to believe he has malicious intent whatsoever. Hamza, you, and I all know that the 4 imams are rightly guided, and that Sadl is in the maliki madhab, and that any way that they pray is acceptable and fine.

[@TheGEOPOLITICIANGUY]

First, I agree with Hanafi and Hanbal - but with Malik and Shafi’i theres an issue first, where did Malik SAY (as in himself) that its “Sunnah” - I read the entire Muwatta as well, and yes, he reports honest reports that he got - but Hadith is NOT technically synonymous with Sunnah, and as an academic you would know that - he was just honest, and narrated a report because he was a man of integrity (along with all the Imams) but he PERSONALLY never said it, as in Malik did not believe it to be Sunnah - he believed the actions of the tabi’een of those in Medina to be sunnah over single reports/narrations (strongly transmitted or not) - Whether Malik is right or wrong, he believed the ‘Amal of the Medinites to trump single narrations (which tbh, is a strong opinion - also dont forget who was Malik’s teacher) …. Next, where did Shafi’i say that its “Sunnah” as well - like in his own words ? Shafi’i was certainly of the opinion of holding the right over the left above the naval - but in his major, most important work “Kitab al-Umm” - he said, be it below the naval, sadl, or his personal opinion of above the naval - Shafi’i said all are okay and the same in term of Sunnah Now al-Nawawī was a great Shafi’i scholar, no doubt, but HE is not Shafi’i himself, he is his own human being lol - UNLESS, Hamza said that none of the Ulama of the 4 madhhabs said it was Sunnah, then I take this all back - but if he said the IMAMS THEMSELVES - then he is right about at least Malik and Shafi’i

[@TheGEOPOLITICIANGUY]

@@mohd_amaan_ansari no one is disagreeing that this was certainly a practice of some - in fact most of medina were in sadl during qiyam, hence why Malik did not believe in clasping the right over the left - so what u showed is not surprising (though thank you for that information, I never heard that before) but if u read my comment u would see that im actually backing up hamza yusuf because Malik Shafi’i and even Hanafi to a degree never DIRECTLY said (at least in terms of sources we can see that have survived) that clasping the hands was “sunnah” - with that being said, technically Hamza is wrong in saying ALL the imams because Hanbal did directly say it was Sunnah - but Shk. Uthman (as much as I like him) is not doing good in refuting Hamza because hamza said THEY THEMSELVES (as in the 4 imams) never said it, and Uthman goes ahead and shows OTHER scholars of the Maddhabs saying its Sunnah - which is disingenuous to be honest, because Hamza NEVER said that scholars of the maddhabs never said it was not sunnah , he was just speaking of the four great imams
