Emm, coz I listen live and Makkah salaah times happen to coincide with our times. Like their Taraweeh is at our taraweeh time, so when we finish taraweeh we still get to hear their dua live and we sit and make dua with them. I mean like we raise our hands and say the Ameen. Not like listening to a recording a few hours later. So it's the same in the last 10 nights. We get up and listen to Tahajjud and dua, and the duas on the odd nights are more special because we have to seek out the Laylatul Qadr. That's why.. I hope I've explained it well. Mind my language....

I actually like it when there's 30 days ,coz there's more taraweeh, more tahajjud and more dua . And the other good thing if Saudi has first Taraweeh on Tuesday night is that we can listen to the first taraweeh in full, since we won't have to be reading taraweeh that night.

Sheikh Sudais has been leading for ages now, so Insha Allah he should lead again this year. Allah knows best.

Sheikh Usaamah Khayyaath led an awesome Maghrib today. Please listen to it and so too was Sheikh Hadhraawiyy awesome in his Tableegh. > http://www.4shared.com/audio/tfML_U8...-1431____.html

I found these facts about 1414 hijri Makkah Taraweeh quite interesting. Perhaps some of the older members may know these facts, but most of them were a first for me > http://www.mazameer.com/vb/t111022.html

Before this thread closes, I just want to correct that statement... I appologize for giving the incorrect age of Sheikh Sa'd Ghamidi Allahu ya7fathuhu. I got it from one of the Saudi news articles. According to his site (http://saadalgamdi.com/index.php?news=2) he is 44 years old this year. Sorry for the wrong info.

I'm still trying to believe this okay: Sheikh Saalih Aal Talib led Salaatul Fajr in Masjidul Haraam this morning > http://www.archive.org/download/28th...khAleTalib.mp3

Takes you back a few years

aslamualikum

yes shaykh sudais was in cardiff, he went to the almanar for magrib then gave a short talk. he left and went to the islamic centre in butetown where he gave a talk and let the isha salah

his talk is on you tube

MashaAllah, the rota has changed, for the next 10 days. Will it be Sheikh Maahir along with him?

Emm, coz I listen live and Makkah salaah times happen to coincide with our times. Like their Taraweeh is at our taraweeh time, so when we finish taraweeh we still get to hear their dua live and we sit and make dua with them.

Aren't you ppl an hour late than saudi?

I really loved Sheikh Khayyat's maghrib salaah, MashaAllah. It was so refreshing, heard him after loonggg. My uncle's his old fan He was so happy to learn Sheikh Khayyat led a jahri salah.

I found these facts about 1414 hijri Makkah Taraweeh quite interesting. Perhaps some of the older members may know these facts, but most of them were a first for me > http://www.mazameer.com/vb/t111022.html

Translate?

Sheikh Saalih and Sheikh Khaalid will lead togather for the next 10 days InshaAllah. 2 of your favourites!

Yes we are an hour later than Saudi, but we in Winter and they in Summer.

I was so happy Sheikh Khayyaath recited a long part in Maghrib coz he just got 2 Maghribs out of the 10 days.

I'll translate a bit when I get a chance. It's time for lunch and Thuhr and then back to campus just now....

Does anyone know when sheikh sudais will be returning inshAllah back to saudi?. mashAllah he has stayed here for a while.

Some of the 'facts' are not right, as mentioned on that thread there by some people. Like the 2 witr during the last 10 days... Because I remember when it was changed and it couldn't be 1414 AH. 1418 seems right.

Sheikh ghamdi was awsome for both maghrib and Ishaa, he just finished Ishaa , absolutely beautiful . I hope he gets a chance to lead taraweeh rather than bringing in a guest for ramadan , but with Allah lies tawfeeq.

3. In the last 10 for the first time, the Khatam continued in Tahajjud, like Shuraim led Sura Saba in Taraweeh 21st night and then continued with Sura Faatir in Tahajjud 21st night etc.

4. Night 21,22 and 23 Tahajjud: 4 rakaats for Shuraim and 6 Rakaats and Shaf3 and Witr for Sudais. The other nights Tahajjud: 6 Rakaats for Shuraim and 4 Rakaats, Shaf3 and Witr for Sudais.

5. The Khatam was on the 27th night and they read from Sura Fajr that night.

6. Taraweeh in the last 10 was very short, about 45 mins.

7. 27th night Tahajjud a new Khatam was started and it continued in Taraweh and Tahajjud. By the 30th night, they had read until Sura Nisaa, Aayah 153.

8. 30th night Tahajjud, they didn't continue from Taraweeh. Shuraim read Sura Yoosuf and Sudais, Sura Yaaseen.

9. It was the first year that all was broadcast on TV for the whole Ramadhaan

(Please let me know if something is grossly mistranslated. I put it in my own words. I didn't translate word for word)

Allahu A'lam. I can't comment on that. I was so surprised that they actually used to have 2 Witr in one night! Imagine, there would be like 18-20 Qunoot duas in the last 10 alone!

He was emotional in Maghrib in the first Sura Faatihah! > http://www.archive.org/download/28th...eikhGhamdi.mp3. Subhanallah! It would be nice if he and Sheikh Saalih get to lead in Ramadhaan. Yeh and they could put Sudais, Shuraim and Mu'ayqali for Witr ......Okay, that's just my imagination running wild again

Btw, Sheikh Saalih led Fajr today and Sheikh Ghamidi led Thuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha...

wa alaikumus Salaam

Here's the article to go with that: http://www.gph.gov.sa/index.cfm?CFID...ContentID=7676

So... today Sheikh Khalid led Fajr and Sheikh Saalih Thuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. And Sheikh Isaam Khan did Fajr, Thuhr and Isha Athaan and Sheikh Faarooq Hadhraawiyy Asr and Isha Athaan.

Shaikh Saleh Aal-Talib gave a lengthy Khutbah today on the topic of maintaining household peace...

There was an accident during the Asr salah today. The Muazzin mistakenly said the first Takbeer (takbiratul ihram) while Shaikh Saleh was still asking the musallis to straighten the rows. Shaikh Saleh immediately said intaziroo fa-inni lam ukabbir "wait, for I have not said Allahu Akbar yet". Then he said Allahu Akbar and the muazzin repeated after him.


Edit: Shaikh Khalid Al-Ghamdi was emotional in Fajr today (friday), in both the rakat.

^lol That must hv been so embarrassing for the muaddhin

Edit: Shaikh Faisal Al-Ghazzawi was emotional in Fajr today, in both the rakat.

He's back? :><:

Edit:: It was Sheikh Ghamdi for Fajr today
