Did Hind (رضي الله عنها) eat the liver of Hamzah (رضي الله عنه)?
The ahaadeeth that are da’eef in this regard:
Musaa ibn ‘Uqbah narrated that Wah-shee gouged the liver of Hamzah and took it to Hind bint ‘Utbah and she tried to chew it however she was unable to. Ibn Katheer mentioned this narration in his Al-Bidaayah wal-Nihaayah (4/43) without an isnaad, hence it is weak.
Ibn Ishaaaq narrated with a broken isnaad that Hind was the one who gouged the liver of Hamzah. (Seerah Ibn Hishaam: 3/133). Hence, this narration is also weak.
Thus, based on what was previously stated, there is nothing authentic that proves Hind (رضي الله عنها) chewed or attempted to chew the live of Hamzah (رضي الله عنه).
Its worthy to note that Ibn Al-Atheer stated the following in her biography:
Hind bint ‘Utbah Al-Qurashee Al-Haashimee, the wife of Aboo Sufiyaan, the mother of Mu’aawiyah. She accepted Islaam along with her husband when Makkah was conquered. She was a woman of persona, self-confidence, and intelligence. She passed away during the Khilaafah of ‘Umar ibn Al-Khattaab. (Asadul-Ghaabah: 6/692-693).

It was narrated that Anas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Whoever is mainly concerned about the Hereafter, Allaah will make him feel independent of others and will make him focused and content, and his worldly affairs will fall into place.
But whoever is mainly concerned with this world, Allaah will make him feel in constant need of others and will make him distracted and unfocused, and he will get nothing of this world except what is decreed for him.”

Is Merely Claiming Salafiyyah Sufficient?
🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦
Question asked to Shaykh Ahmad An-Najmi رحمه الله
💠Question no. 76: س ٧٦
There are some (people) who claim that they are Salafi and they say: ” We are Salafi, but we don’t speak about those who make mistakes and don’t make criticism on anyone!”
💠Answer no. 76: ج٧٦
🗣Say to them that Salafiyyah isn’t correct without making criticism on anyone. So love and hating for Allaah, and showing loyalty and enmity is for Allaah, If the person abandons these 4 then his Islaam is weak.
The Messenger (may the Salah and salaam be upon him) said: “whom ever from amongst you sees an evil therefore let him change it with his hand, and if he isn’t able to do that therefore with his tongue, and if he isn’t able to do that, therefore in his heart an that is the weakest of imaan.” (Recorded by Muslim)
The weakest of imaan hating falsehood in your heart, but the one in which doesn’t hate the falsehood in his heart then where is the imaan that in which is in his heart?!!! Meaning his imaan is weak and doesn’t benefit him.

Some rulings regarding women:
(a) It is permissible for a woman to remove body hair, except the hair on her head and her eyebrows, as it is NOT permissible for her to remove this hair or any part of them. She should remove the hair by herself, or with the help of her husband, one of her Mahrams (spouse or unmarriageable relatives), or a woman, from the parts of her body that are permitted to be seen.
(b) It is permissible for women to wear all types of gold jewelry. Shaykh Isma‘il Al-Ansary has written a research paper on this issue, to which you may refer.
(c) It is permissible for a woman to wear make-up in front of her husband to beautify herself for him and to appear in it in front of her Mahrams.
(d) It is NOT permissible for a woman to wear PANTS, as in doing so she is imitating men.
(e) It is NOT permissible for a woman to uncover her hair in front of men, who are not her Mahrams, but it is permissible for her to uncover it in front of other women in general, and it is permissible for her to wear gloves.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.

Precious Gem : Shaytan has three ways of tempting man – Imam Ibn al-Qayyim
A Precious Gem: The Satanic Ways of Tempting
Satan has three ways of tempting man:
One: Increase and extravagance; to have more than one needs. This addition is the way, which Satan uses to enter the heart. To protect oneself from that is to be careful not to fulfill all the needs of the soul like food, sleep, pleasure, or rest. Whenever you close this door, you would be safe from any enemy.
Two: Negligence; whoever remembers Allah is protected by the fortress of remembering Him. When he neglects that he will be opening the door of this fortress and the enemy will enter. It would then be difficult to drive him out.
Three: Caring for what is not his business in all matters of life.

Shaykh Saalih ibn Fowzaan al-Fowzaan
Question:What is the ruling of an individual who loves a scholar or a Da'ee and says: I love him very much, I do not want to listen to anyone refuting him and I take his word even if it goes against the evidence, because the shaykh has more knowledge of the evidence than us?
Answer:This is detestable and blameworthy partisanship and it is not allowed. We love the scholars-and all praise is to Allaah-and we love the Du'aat (callers) for the sake of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic. However if one from amongst them makes an error in an issue, we make clear the truth in that issue with the evidence and this does not decrease our love for the one who is refuted nor does it decrease his status. Imaam Maalik-rahimahullaah- said: "There is no one from amongst us except that he will refute or be refuted, except the companion of this grave." Meaning the Messenger of Allaah SAllaahu Alihee Wasallam.
If we refute some of the people of knowledge and some of the people of virtue, this does not mean that we hate him or dispraise him, we only make clear what is correct and for this reason some of the scholars, when some of their colleagues made an error, said: "So and so is beloved to us, however the truth is more beloved to us than him. " And this is the correct way.
Do not understand from this that to refute some of the scholars in an issue where they have erred in, means lowering them or having hatred for them. Rather the scholars have not ceased refuting each other and at the same time being brothers and having mutual love. It is not allowed for us to take everything that an individual says unquestionably, whether he is correct or in error, because this is partisanship.
The one whose statement is taken absolutely and nothing from it is left, is the Messenger of Allaah Sallaahu Alaihi Wasallam. Because he is a Messenger from his Lord and does not speak from his desires. As for other than them (messengers), then sometimes they make errors and sometimes they are correct, even though they may be from the best of the people, they are Mujtahidoon that make mistakes at times and are correct at others. No one is infallible from falling into error except the Messenger of Allaah Sallaahu Alihee Wasallam. It is therefore Waajib that we know this and that we do not remain silent upon error, due to love of an individual. Rather it is upon us that we make the error clear. The Prophet Sallaahu ýAlihee Wasallam said: "The religion is sincere advice. We said: To whom. He said: To Allaah, His book, His messenger, the leaders of the Muslims and their general people."
So clarification of an error is advice for all, as for concealing it, then this goes against advice.
