In this episode, Shaykh Faraz explains the difference between the Qur’an, a Hadith Qudsi, and a normal Hadith of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace). He then covers two hadiths on the Mercy of Allah.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ encouraged us to strive for uprightness by seeking assistance in the early mornings, late afternoons (al-rawha), and something of the depths of the night. From this tradition, the scholars, early and recent, made it a habit to read texts of religious guidance, briefly, in the late afternoon (rawha) time, and often termed such readings their daily “rawha.” The term refers to the late afternoon, but also to a time of rest from worldly toils, and reinvigoration of one’s spirit.
