The Twentieth Tuesday

﷽

My jacket was covering the receiver so the audio isn’t the best this week. Sorry. I think you can still make out what I’m saying. Why is the audio quality suboptimal when I have incredibly interesting things to talk about? Sigh. Moving on… I’m anxiously optimistic for THE MONTHLY PAPERS!!! Don’t know how it’ll go, but I expect khair. Insha’Allah khair. Also, I can’t believe it’s the twentieth Tuesday already. Wow. Alhamdulilah.

Here’s the Hadith I mentioned, in Arabic and English:

حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لاَ تُقْتَلُ نَفْسٌ ظُلْمًا إِلاَّ كَانَ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ الأَوَّلِ كِفْلٌ مِنْ دَمِهَا، لأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ سَنَّ الْقَتْلَ ‏"‏‏.‏

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whenever a person is murdered unjustly, there is a share from the burden of the crime on the first son of Adam for he was the first to start the tradition of murdering."

—Sahih al-Bukhari 3335.

Edit on Tuesday, October 6, 2026 at 7:44 PM: Guyssssssuuuhhhhh… I’m listening to today’s episode as I type this. I think I deserve to be seriously considered for next year’s Nobel Peace Prize nominations. Not that I’ll accept it. But you know.. it’s the thought that counts.
