00:00:01.246 --> 00:00:03.516
Welcome to Fun Islamic Facts

00:00:03.576 --> 00:00:06.175
Where I share fun facts about 
Muhammed and the Qur'an

00:00:06.365 --> 00:00:08.677
Whenever jihadis go on a killing spree.

00:00:09.487 --> 00:00:10.688
In fun fact three

00:00:10.688 --> 00:00:12.966
we learned that Satan
pees in your ears

00:00:13.646 --> 00:00:14.779
In fun fact six

00:00:14.779 --> 00:00:17.859
we saw that Satan hides in your
nose when you sleep.

00:00:18.809 --> 00:00:20.547
But many of you were wondering

00:00:20.907 --> 00:00:25.116
"What does Satan do when he hears
the adhan-the Islamic call to prayer?"

00:00:26.006 --> 00:00:29.619
Forunately for us, Muhammed's followers
wondered the same thing

00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:32.928
And the prophet of Islam had the answer

00:00:33.958 --> 00:00:38.529
Sahih al-Bukhari number 1231
Narrated Abu Hurairah:

00:00:38.739 --> 00:00:40.155
Allah's messenger said

00:00:40.215 --> 00:00:43.260
"When the call for Salat (prayer)
is made

00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:48.840
Satan takes to his heels passing wind
so that he may not hear the Adhan."

00:00:49.710 --> 00:00:54.957
Sunan an-Nasai number 671
Narrated Abu Hurairah:

00:00:55.037 --> 00:00:56.411
The Prophet said,

00:00:56.491 --> 00:01:00.301
"When the call for the prayer is given,
the Shaitan takes to his heels.

00:01:00.301 --> 00:01:04.150
passing wind loudly so that he will not hear
the call to prayer.

00:01:04.670 --> 00:01:07.462
When the call to prayer is finished,
he comes back."

00:01:08.802 --> 00:01:13.031
Muslim commentators are careful to point
out that Satan literally farts

00:01:13.031 --> 00:01:15.016
when he hears the call
to prayer.

00:01:15.306 --> 00:01:18.402
As the commentator for this edition of
Sunan an-Nasai notes

00:01:18.852 --> 00:01:23.130
"Breaking wind evidently signifies
the literal breaking of wind.

00:01:23.550 --> 00:01:28.263
If Satan can eat and drink,
then why deny other bodily functions?

00:01:28.593 --> 00:01:31.833
Some have understood the said phrase
to mean abhorrence,

00:01:32.233 --> 00:01:34.792
but this interpretation is without evidence."

00:01:36.172 --> 00:01:40.103
According to Muslim preachers,
one of the virtues of Islam

00:01:40.523 --> 00:01:42.004
Is its simplicity.

00:01:42.554 --> 00:01:45.596
And it's difficult to argue with their
claim that Islam is simple

00:01:45.706 --> 00:01:48.113
since, with all the talk of Satan

00:01:48.113 --> 00:01:51.225
peeing in your ears and farting and
hiding in your nose

00:01:51.785 --> 00:01:55.517
Islam sounds like it was 
invented by a five year old.
