As salaamu alaikum warahmatullah,
Can the knowledgeable brothers please provide an explanation of this hadeeth, in light of the current situation of the Muslims? JazakAllaahu khair
quote:
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) led us in prayer and prolonged it, and when the people said, "Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), you have prayed a prayer such as you have not been accustomed to pray," he replied, "Yes, it was a prayer of hope and fear during which I asked Allah for three things, two of which He granted me but one of which He refused me. I asked Him not to destroy my people by famine and He granted me that, I asked Him not to let an enemy from another people rule over them and He granted me that, and I asked Him not to let them experience one another's violence but He refused me that."
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 5754 Narrated byKhabbab ibn al-Aratt
