NEWSLETTER VOL.02. NO.6
09 Ramadhan 1435 / 07 July 2014



TARAWEEH SALAAH ...

IN THE GOLDEN ERA OF ISLAM

(THE DAYS OF THE SAHAABAH, TAABI'EEN AND TABA' TAABI'EEN)


(A Sahaabi is a Muslim who was blessed with seeing Rasulullah sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - A Tabi'ee is a Muslim who saw a Sahaabi - A Taba' Taabi'ee is a Muslim who saw a Taabi'ee)

LENGTHENING OF THE TARAWEEH SALAAH

Saa'ib bin Yazeed rahmatullaahi 'alayh says:

~ In the days of Sayyiduna Umar radhiyallaahu 'anhu, the Taraweeh Salaah used to be so lengthy, that some of us had to take support from our walking sticks to remain standing!
He adds: The Taraweeh used to terminate in the early hours of the morning, just a little before Subh Saadiq!
(Muwatta Imam Maalik - awjazul masaalik 2/300)

~ In the noble era of Sayyiduna Uthmaan radhiyallaahu anhu too, they used to take support from their walking sticks, due to the long Taraweeh Salaat. (Baihaqee - sanaduhu saheeh - aathaarus sunan pg. 251)

Aboo Bakr Ansaari Bukhaari rahmatullaahi 'alayh, who passed away around 120 A.H., says:
~ Upon completing Taraweeh, we used to return home and rush the servants to bring the food for sehri, since very little time was left before Subh Saadiq! (Muwatta Imaam Maalik - awjazul masaalik 2/308)

120 YEAR OLD IMAAM PERFORMING ALL 20 RAKA' AAT OF TARAWEEH SALAAH!

~ Suwayd bin Ghafalah rahmatullaahi 'alayh was a Taabi'ee. He arrived in Madeenah Munawwarah the day Rasulullah sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam was buried.
Waleed bin Ali says:
Suwayd bin Ghafalah rahmatullaahi 'alayh reached the age of 120 and he still used to be our Imaam in the Taraweeh Salaah! He used to perform all 20 raka'aat himself!
(Musannaf ibn Abi Shaybah 2/287; Bayhaqi isnaaduhu hasan - authenticated - aathaarus sunan pg. 253)

~ Abu Rajaa 'Utaaridee rahmatullaahi 'alayh was also a Taabi'ee. He passed away at the ripe old age of 120.
He himself says: "I was so frail and weak that I could not even walk. People used to carry me from my home to the Masjid!"
He would then lead the Taraweeh Salaah, reciting about 30 aayaat in each raka'aat, which if multiplied by 20, will equal to about 3 paras (Juz) of the Qur'aan Kareem!
(Mukhtasar qiyaamil layl-qiyaam ramadhaan pg.12)
