Notes

And after that, acts of worship are the ones in which precious times are spent... The book called “Minyat al-Muniyat al-Mutali’” and “Ghaniyyat al-Mubtadi” was one of the best things I had created in explaining it… and I wanted to give it an explanation that would abound in its benefits… And I called it Ghaniyya al-Mumtali fi Sharh “Minyat al-Mumtali” in explaining “Minyat al-Muttali” ...", Explicit: "For God Almighty to place her dowry on her charge is better for him than to have intercourse with a woman who does not pray. God Almighty said, “Command your family to pray and be patient with it. We do not ask you for sustenance. We will provide for you, and punishment is for piety.
