Re: Translation Of Namaz In Urdu
Peace All,
As per context of hadith, What is Niyat (intention)? It is actually “intention in our heart ” to do/decide something.
For an example:
Let say we hear Adhaan of Dhuhar and decide to offer Saalath in Masjid. So we came in Masjid. Question is why we came in Masjid? Answer is that to offer Dhuhar Salaath in Masjid because this is the intention (niyat) we made in our heart while hearing Adhaan.
Moreover, we will not going to say/proclaim Asar Salaath or other than Dhuhar Slaath at Dhuhar Salaath time? Right? So proclaiming in Urdu is not necessary nor is a part of any Salaath and Deen-e-Islam.
Furthermore, by proclaiming in Urdu (doing niyat) to whom we’re uttering these words? I mean to whom we’re telling “Khas neeyat karta hun is Namaz ke, Namaz khas wastey Allah Subhanahu wa Taala kay ”? Are we telling Almighty Allah that we came to offer so and so Namaaz for you??? See how beautifully Almighty Allah answer this:
Kiya hum Almighty Allah ko yeh batana chahtain hain ke hum yeh wali namaz k liyeh aain hain? Kiya Almighty Allah ko (naooz-billah) nahi pata ke hum Masjid mein kis liyeh or konsi namaaz k liyeh aain hain? Sochain ki baat hy.
Mere Bhai! Yeh jo Urdu wali neeyat hy, yeh neeyat na hadith se sabit hy or na kisi Sahabi :razi: se sabit hy. Bas dil ka irada hota jaise k hadith mein bayan howa hy or kiram-un-katibeen Almighty Allah ke hukam se sab kuch note kr latain hain jo irada app ke dil mein ho. Chahy app halki awaz mein kahain ya unchi awaz mein ya chup reh kr.@Hakuna_Matata , above answer is for you as well
**Lethal Brother you are right Masha Allah!
however it is stated that reciting the Niyaat aloud is considered a Bidat e Hasana**
**Niyyah is made with the heart in all of the four madhhabs. If a person has difficulty in making intention by heart, it is permissible for him to utter verbally the intention he made in his heart.
