Dear Quran Lovers,
Let us continue to recite surah 96 Al-'Alaqq. Please refer to the text:
أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(17) فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ = "Fal-Yadd-'u Na~di-yah". "Fal" = Then,  "Yadd-'u" = he calls, "Na~di-ya" = summon, "Hu~" = him.
"Fal-Yadd-'u Na~di-yah" = Then (in order to obstruct the Prophet s.a.w. and his companions from performing solat and also to hurt them) he/Abu Jahal called him/them = his clique (to help him in doing so).
(18) سَنَدْعُ اُلزَّبَانِيَةَ = "Sa Nadd-'uz-Za-ba~ni-yah.". "Sa" = Shall, "Nadd-'u" = We call, "az-Za-ba~ni-ya-ta" = the Zaba~niah/Hell Keepers.
"Sa-nadd-'uz-Za-ba~ni-yah" = We/Allah shall call Az-Zaba~niah/ the Hell keepers (to counter/oppose them).
[In the 2nd year of Hijrah, in the Battle of Badr, the Meccan Qureysh with  more than a thousand strong men fully and were well equipped with horses, camels and arms, while the Prophet s.a.w. was with about 313 men, 2 horses and a number of camels which they rode in turns.
After a fierce battle, the Qureysh were on the losing side. Most of them retreated and turned tails. But Abu Jahal kept on fighting and he was being surrounded and was shield by his men with spears and swords. A young Muslim named Muaz ibnu Amru asked his leader, Abdul Rahman bin Auf r.a., which one was Abu Jahal who had ill-treated the Prophet s.a.w. And Abdul Rahman pointed Abu Jahal to him. Then, along came another young Muslim, Muawiz ibnu Afra' and was asking Abdul Rahman the same question, and Abdul Rahman also pointed Abu Jahal to him. 
Abu Jahal was well and tightly protected by his men. But, not long after that, Muaz ibnu Amru saw an opening, and he jumped in and swung his sword at Abu Jahal and could chop off half of his leg. But Muaz himself, his arm was being chopped off. And at that moment, Muawiz ibnu Afra' came near them and swung his sword at Abu Jahal, and Abu Jahal fell to the ground badly wounded and was almost died.The battle then went on. With the fall of Abu Jahal, the remaining Qureysh retreated and headed home to Mecca.
The Prophet s.a.w. was told that Abu Jahal was killed in the battle. He s.a.w. told his companions to bring his dead body to him s.a.w. It was Abdullah ibnu Mas'ud (another young man) who found Abu Jahal lying on the ground but was still alive. And they exchanged some words. Abu Jahal was still haughty. Then Ibnu Mas'ud raised his hand and his sword slashing down and cut off Abu Jahal's head. Then Ibnu Mas'ud brought the head before the Prophet s.a.w. and told the Prophet s.a.w. that it was Abu Jahal's. The Prophet s.a.w. recited Takbir and Tahmid and asked Ibnu Mas'ud to take him to the remain of Abu Jahal. When he s.a.w. came to the remain, he s.a.w. said, "This is the Pharaoh of this ummah/people."
(19) (to be continued).
Let us now continue to look into the Basic Islamic Rules:
(2) Solat: 
    (3) (ii) The Clothing Worn When Solat Must Be Clean:
    This is based on (a) surah 74 Al-Muddathir, verse 4: "And cleanse your garment."
    And the Hadith reported by Jabir ibnu Samrah who said, "I heard a man asked the Prophet s.a.w., "Can I perform solat wearing a garment which I wore when I slept/have sex with my wife?" The Prophet s.a.w. answered, "Yes, you can. Except when you see there is something/soiled, then you must clean (the soil)". (narrated by Ahmad and Ibnu Majah).
    When a person is performing solat and there is Najis/defilement on his garment without him knowing it, or he forgot about it, and while performing the solat, he knows/remembers about it, it is wajib for him to stop solat, and removes the defilement, then carries on with his solat without performing it all over again. This is based on the Hadith reported by Abu Sa'id: (to be continued).
Until we meet again in the next session. See you all Quran Lovers later.
