أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(6) فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَزِينُهُ = "Fa Am~ma~ Manth~THa-qu-lat Ma-wa~zi~nuh". "Fa" = Then, "Am~ma~" = as for, "Man" = who, "THa-qu-lat" = heavy in, "Ma-wa~zi~nu" = weighed, "Hu" = his.
"Fa Am~ma~ Manth~THa-qu-lat Ma-wa~zi~nuh". = Then, those whose weight (of goodness done, that is, on the right side of the "Mizan"/balance) is heavy.
(7) فَهُو فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ = "Fa Hu-wa Fi~ 'I~sya-tir- Ro~-dhi-yah". "Fa" = Then, "Hu-wa" = he, "Fi~" = in, 'I~sya-tin" = live and let live, "Ro~dhi-ya-tin" = pleasent life.
"Fa Hu-wa Fi~ 'I~sya-tir-Ro~dhi-yah". = Thence, these people will live and let live in a pleasent life (in the Paradise).
(8) وَأَمَّا مَن خَفَّتْ مَوَزِينُهُ = "Wa Am~ma~ Man KHof-fat Ma-wa~zi~nuh".  "Wa" = And, "Am~ma~" = as for, "Man" = who, "KHof-fat" = light in, "Ma-wa~zi~nu" = weighed, "Hu" = his.

 Insya Allah, in the next session, we shall recite surah 2 Al-Baqoroh, starting from verse 6. This surah is the synopsis of the Religion of Islam.
                          oooo000oooo
Let us now continue to look into the Basic Islamic Rules:
  (2) Solat: The 'Awrat/modesty of a woman/ of aged female, and of a slave girl:
  Imam Ahmad ibnu Hanbal said: " (The 'Awrat/modesty of a woman/an of age, or had a wet dream, or/and has menses female is) Her whole body, and is Wajib/obligatory on her to cover it when performing solat".
Imam Abu Hanifah and his followers said, "When a woman performs solat with a quarter (part) of her hair exposed, or with a third or a quarter (part) of her abdomen/belly or a third, her solat is insufficient. If her hair or her belly were exposed less than what had been mentioned above, were not considered as insufficient".
Abu Hanifah and Ahmad were of the opinion that if the 'Awrat were exposed a little in the solat, her solat were not spoilt.
Abu Hanifah also said that if her major 'Awrat were exposed about the size of a "dirham"/coin, or were less than a quarter of the 'Awrat, her solat were not spoilt.
 Ahmad adhered to the Hadith narrated by Abu Daud and to the Hadith reported by Ashim Al-Ahwal which was narrated by Abu Daud and An-Nasa'i. Both of these Hadith allowed a little exposed part of the 'Awrat in the solat and it does not spoil the solat. And he/Ahmad did not allow the limit set by Abu Hanifah because there is no clarification. Ahmad did not differentiate between the large and the little (part of the 'Awrat exposed). He left it to one's              " 'Urufi"/customary.
At-Tamimi said, "If the 'Awrat were exposed for one second and closed for one second, the solat needed not to be reperformed."
As-Syafiei considered a solat is spoilt should the 'Awrat be exposed even a little.
Ahmad was of the opinion that if the 'Awrat were unintentionally being exposed and it were quickly being covered up, the solat were not spoilt.
 The 'Awrat Of  A Slave Girl And That Of A Free Woman (Outside Solat): (to be continued).
Until we meet again in the next session. See you all Quran Lovers later
