It is interesting to note. that if oneof us lost some money, how concerned'and worried W'e would l,e and how much effort we 'would. exert in trying to find it.

But 'how many' Sunan have we Iost in our lives? Does this sadden us? Have we strived tor~v·~v,e them in our lives?

One· of the problems we suffer from is' that \~re: 'have begun tevalue and admire the: dinar and dirham more ·than the. Sunnah: If

~. ~ .

people were' told that 'whoever observed a

Sunn'ah from the Sunan of the Prophet (~) Would receive a certain amount of money, fh~n you would. certainly findthem 'weanling to and. striving: to observe ·"the Suninan 'in .. all ,oftheir .affairs, from the jnoming to the evening.

'WhY'?'Onlyb~~use they would ~gain. some ntoney for-every Sunnahpractised.

PR.AYING· TOWAR.DS .A SUTRAH

This text. is general' re:gar,ding·l~·kin.g a Sutrah,- irrespective ofwhether it is irt the Masjid orhome, for inert orwomen, 'Some "peQpl.e do nat adopt this 'Sunnah, sowe find thentpra,ying without a Suftah.Th'is ,$unnah is repeated, by a Muslim many times during ~he dav and night-for the' SUn1{u.J!', A ripwaa:ti-b" Ad-:Duh'aaf Tah~ya:af AI-Mp;~jfd and ,AI-Wit'r 'pra.yers.

1. The- SUfrah can 'be 'whatever the ,perHon praying: sets in, from ofhim whenhe is fa:~ing the Qiblah - such as a. wall, stick or 'Pillar. There is no Iimit to its width.

Benefits of observing this Sunnah:

o Itprotects the ... prayer hom being' broken.

o When someonepa·sse.s i:h from of a praying person, it cuts or .reduces the value of the ·prayer. 'Thin-gs thatbreak rhe Salaah,whe.n they pass between the ODe praying andhis Suirah, are a female pa~J the age ofpuberty.und a black dQg.6·;r
