Amal-e-Katheer (excessive movement) refers to that act of a person praying which is not for the correction of the prayer, nor is it among the acts of the prayer, and it is done in such a manner that a sudden onlooker would think that this person is not in prayer. Such an act invalidates the prayer. Many people commit Amal-e-Katheer in prayer, due to which their prayer becomes invalid, but due to not knowing this definition of Amal-e-Katheer, they think that their prayer is valid. Therefore, one should stand in prayer with complete tranquility and calmness. (Tabyin al-Haqa'iq: 1/412) (Derived from: Darsi wa Talimi Aham Masail, pg: 112)
The Chaudhry's Sacrifice and Love for Religious Scholars
...A Chaudhry used to dedicate a whole year's supply of wheat for the students of a madrasa. A mischievous person, out of enmity and hatred towards the Maulana Sahib, expressed his ill feelings in such a way that while searching for the address, he reached the Chaudhry's house and said: "Chaudhry Sahib! Go to the madrasa and find out what misappropriations are happening in the name of the students! Half of the wheat goes to the madrasa... and half to the Moulvi Sahib's house..." May Allah have mercy on the Chaudhry's grave where that anonymous mujahid is sleeping... Chaudhry stood up... embraced that mischievous person, thanked him, and said, "My friend, why didn't you come earlier? By telling me this, you have helped me. From today onwards, one year's worth of wheat for Maulana's house and a separate year's worth of wheat for the madrasa..." The last words spoken by the Chaudhry deserve to be written in gold. He said: "Listen! Feeding the students is also a great thing, but for me, it is a matter of pride that the Muhaddith (hadith scholar) of the time eats my wheat, whose entire day is spent reading and teaching 'Qalallah' (Allah said) and 'Qala Rasulullah' (The Messenger of Allah said)... I have no doubt about its reward." Allah-hu-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) _____________________________________ Quoted. Selection: Islamic Tube Pro App
