“The majority of those who shout for an Islamic law in the world have neither an Islamic law in their own homes, in themselves, their sons, daughters or their wives. The one who has nothing can’t give anything.”

Ibn al-Qayyim [رحمه الله] said:
❝Indeed Allaah Subhanahu guaranteed for the one who repented from Shirk, murder, adultery that He will convert / change a person’s evil deeds into good deeds, this is a general ruling for everyone who repents from a sin.
Allaah [تعالى] said:
﴿قُلْ يَاعِبَادِيَ الَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ لَا تَقْنَطُوا مِنْ رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ﴾
«Say: “O ‘Ibadi [My slaves] who have transgressed against themselves [by committing evil deeds and sins]! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, verily Allah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.» [Zumar: 53]
So from this general principle no sin is exempted from being cancelled out, however, this is specific for those who repent.❞

Shaykh Rabīʿ ibn Hādī al-Madkhalī (ḥafiẓahullāh):
The statement of al-Imām Aḥmad about al-Qadar,
"Not to debate or argue with anyone, and not to learn argumentation."
There are from amongst the small students of knowledge, who go and debate with the Rāfiḍah, the Jahmīyyah, and the Muʿtazilah concerning the divine decree, debating with them in these affairs. Do not subject yourself to doubts (for indeed they lead you to being) astray. However, the skillful scholar, who knows that he will be able to benefit with such debates, either aiding the Sunnah or subduing the people of falsehood, or even maybe Allāh will guide the one whom the scholar is debating. If he is seeking the truth, then the scholar is to clarify the issue to him.
As for you, the poor small student who is weak in knowledge, do not debate! I emphasise this point to the students of knowledge that you should not debate concerning the likes of these very serious innovations. As for the normal affairs that you know, and they are in the limits of your abilities, and you fully understand them, then there is no problem for you to discuss them, as long as the intention is not to debate and gain victory, but rather the goal is for clarification.

The Scholar, the ruler, and your brother
It is reported that Abdullaah b. Al-Mubarak- Allaah have mercy on him said:
It is right that an intelligent person does not undervalue three [types of people]: the scholars, the rulers, and [his Muslim] brothers. Whoever undervalues the scholars will lose his afterlife, whoever undervalues the rulers will lose his worldly life, and whoever undervalues his brothers loses his good character and conduct.

🎓Three Words of Advice
Abu Nu'aym narrated in "Al Hilyah" on the authority of 'Awn Bin 'Abdullah who said,
Verily, the those of knowledge and understanding used to advise with three (words of advice):
Whoever works for the hereafter, Allah will suffice for them their worldly affair.
Whoever rectifies their private and hidden affairs, Allah will rectify for them their public and open affairs.
Whoever rectifies that which is between them and between Allah, Allah will rectify that which is between them and between the people.

How would you like to face death?
While watching TV or while in sujood? While singing songs or while reciting Qur’an? When its time, the Angel of Death does not wait for us to finish watching our favorite movie. They reach wherever we are and do their task. Let’s leave all the acts of Allah’s disobedience today because if our life will be spent in the obedience of Allah then we will die as an obedient slave In Shaa Allah.
Let’s wake up before we NEVER WAKE UP. :)

If Jannah is your Dream, Hold tight to your Deen!
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Islam began as something strange and will revert to being something strange, so glad tidings to the strangers.” It was said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allaah? He said: “Those who are righteous when the people are corrupt.”
Narrated by Abu ‘Amr al-Daani in al-Sunan al-Waaridah fi’l-Fitan (1/25) from the hadeeth of Ibn Mas’ood; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah (1273); the hadeeth is also narrated in Saheeh Muslim (145).
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Ahead of you there lie days of patience, during which being patient will be like grasping a hot coal. The one who does good deeds then will have a reward like that of fifty men who do such deeds. – And someone else added – They said: O Messenger of Allaah, the reward of fifty of them? He said: “The reward of fifty of you.”
Narrated by Abu Dawood (4341); al-Tirmidhi (3085) and he said: it is a hasan hadeeth. It was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah (494).

Shaykh Ahmed An-Najamee said in Al- (Fataawaa Al-Jaliyyah, volume 2: )
“It is not permissible for the beginning student of knowledge to declare someone an innovator, or declare someone a disbeliever until he is Qualified to do that.
And he must refer the matter back to the senior *(Kibaar)* people of knowledge in particular, because Allaah, the Most High, says: “If only they had referred it to the Messenger or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have understood it from them (directly).” (An-Nisaa:83)
*It is not appropriate for the beginning student of knowledge to declare people unreliable (Jarh), or declare people innovators(Tabdee’) from his ownself.
However, he must take from the statement of the people of knowledge who are considered (authorities). And there is no harm in him speaking from one of the scholars if he is sure of their statement in declaring someone unreliable (At-Tajreeh). And Allaah is the Giver of success…
the matter of describing someone with innovation and boycotting the innovator, this is (for) whoever the scholars declare to be an innovator. And do not be hasty O you small students, to pass judgment on any person with the declaration of innovation, even if the person has with him an innovation, until you present that back to the scholars and they assist you in that. Without this (referring back to the scholars), then you all do not do anything of that.”
Also Shaykh Ahmed An-Najamee has said else where “…that the common people and the beginning students of knowledge, it is not appropriate for them to be hasty in passing judgments on others besides them until they refer back to the people of knowledge, who are greater than themselves, and those who know these affairs. Indeed they have dealt with these affairs for a long time…”
