When The Fools Think They Are Knowledgeable - Shaykh Salih Al-Fawzan (Signs Of The Hour)
From Abū Hurayrah Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu who narrated that Prophet Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said:
“The most EVIL of my Ummah are those who TALK a lot, those who are LOUDMOUTHS and those who EXPAND their SPEECH and the best of my Ummah are the best of them in character.”
● [الأدب المفرد ١٣٠٨ ، صححه الألباني]

Shaykh Muqbil (Rahimahullah) :
The affliction that the Muslims are being tested by is their being ignorant about their Religion. So anyone who memorizes some ayaat and ahaadeeth and then begins to talk about it, especially if he has some eloquence in speech, people say: "This is a Shaikh."

Our beloved and noble Scholar of Islaam, Muhammadm Nasirul Deen Al-Albaani, (Rahmatullahi Ta'aala Alayhe), said what is translated as:
"We live in an age where one of the fatal characteristics is widespread, which is everyone liking his own opinion. Today everybody who reads a bit of Qur'aan or learns a bit of Ahkaam (rulings) and Ahaadeeth,(Narrations on the sunnah of Muhammad, salallahu alayhe wa salam), he thinks he is something in 'ilm (knowledge) although he can not read the Ahaadeeth without committing errors, and then he wants to argue everything he sees..."

Who do we take our Knowledge from? – Shaykh Fawzaan
http://www.salaficentre.com/2013/08/acquiring-knowledge-from-who/
Question
A man teaches the people the sciences of the Islamic legislation and the Aqeedah of the Salaf even though he did not acquire knowledge from the mashaayikh and the scholars; is knowledge taken from him?
Answer
As long as he does not have foundation from the scholars (i.e. did not acquire knowledge from them in person and has no recommendations for that), rather he sought (knowledge) from papers and books, then knowledge is not taken from him because he does not understand the Madhab of the salaf. And it (i.e. Madhab of the Salaf) is not understood except by studying under the scholars. (It) is acquired (from the scholars)–this knowledge is (acquired from the scholars) and not only through reading. It is acquired (through the scholars), but reading is only an aid and not depended on. The likes of this (person) is called a Muta-aalim* and knowledge is not taken from him.
– Shaykh Saleh al-Fawzaan
*Muta-aalim: [i.e. someone who feigns knowledge and understanding but does/did not seek knowledge directly from the people of knowledge.

Benefit: Categories of the Believers
In the Name of Allāh, the Ever Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
The believers are of three categories:
1- Those who race towards the good: They are those who establish the obligated and recommended things and abstain from the impermissible and disliked things.
2- Those who ration: They are those who confine themselves to carrying out only the obligated matters and leaving off the impermissible matters.
3- Those who oppress themselves: They are those who mix between the righteous actions and the evil actions.

Upon the authority of Abu Dardaa [رضي الله عنه] [who narrates] From the Messenger [ﷺ] who said:
❝The Sun does not rise, except that on either side of it there are two angels that make a call that is heard by everyone on earth except Mankind and the Jinn [Saying] 'Oh Mankind! Come to your Lord! That which is little and suffices is better than that which is plenty but distracts [from your Lord].' And it does not set except that on either side of it there are two angels that call, [Saying] 'Oh Allah! Give to the one that spends [in your way] a goodly substitute, and and give to the one that withholds [from giving] destruction.'❞

The Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:
وإنه سيخرج في أمتي أقوام تجارى بهم تلك الأهواء كما يتجارى الكلب بصاحبه
‘’And indeed there will appear a people out of my Ummah in whom desires will run through them just as rabies runs through a dog.’’ [1]
Al-Allaamah Ahmad Bin Yahyah An-Najmi (rahimahullaah) said: This is (something) that has taken place; for indeed you see that many amongst the people of those desires (i.e. bidah) do not submit to the truth. They do not return to it (i.e. the truth) after being aware of it, just like the dog afflicted with rabies. Rabies is the disease that afflicts a dog and when afflicted by it, it persists and does not subside; rather it becomes mad or like a mad one. It does not drink water; rather it wishes to bite anyone it finds. [2]

THE SON OF AADAM IS URGED TO REPENT FROM THAT BLAMEWORTHY EAGERNESS AND LOVE FOR WORLDLY POSSESSIONS!
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) say, ‘’If the son of Aadam had a valley filled with wealth, he would love to have (another one) similar to it. Nothing can suffice the son of Aadam’s soul except dust. And Allaah forgives the one who repents [Saheeh Muslim’ Hadeeth number 1049]
Few Reminders Related to The Above Hadeeth
The son of Aadam does not cease being eager for the Dunyah until death and thus his mouth is filled with the dust in his grave.
Allaah accepts the repentance of a person who repents from that blameworthy eagerness for the Dunyah (worldly possessions).
This hadeeth censures blameworthy eagerness for the Dunyah, the (blameworthy) love of gathering worldly things and being desirous of them.

A WARNING AGAINST SHAVING THE BEARD
Shaykh ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Bāz (raḥimuhullāh) said: As for the beard, it is impermissible to shave it or take anything from it at any given time; rather it is an obligation to let it grow due to that which has been affirmed in the Ṣaḥīḥayn (Bukhārī and Muslim) on the authority of Ibn ʿUmar (raḍi Allāhu ʿʿʿanhu) who said, the Prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said:
Oppose the polytheists, lengthen the beard and clip the moustaches.
Likewise, Imām Muslim collected in his Ṣahīh, on the authority of Abū Hurayrah (raḍi Allāhu ʿʿʿanhu) who said, the prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said:
Trim the moustaches and grow the beards, oppose the Fire-Worshipers (Majūs).
This calamity has become greater in this time of ours due to many of the people opposing this Sunnah and waging war against (growing) the beards, and them being pleased with looking like women and disbelievers (by not growing their beards), nevertheless, even those who associate themselves with knowledge and educating [fall into this calamity of trimming the beard]. Verily to Allāh we belong and to Him we shall return. We ask Allāh to guide us and guide all of the Muslims to accept the Sunnah, adhere to it and call towards it, even if most of the people turn away from it. Allāh (alone) is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs, there is no might nor power except with Allāh the Most High and Exalted.

Fatwa no. 21778 alifta.com
Shaykh Ibn Baaz Rahimahullaah
Q: The habit of lightening eyebrows has recently spread among women; they lighten the hairs below and above the eyebrow, so that it resembles Nams (removing hair from the face/eyebrows). This habit is an imitation of Western countries. The lightening substance is also medically harmful.
What is the ruling of Shariah (Islamic law) on this deed? Please advise. May Allah reward you! It is worth mentioning that most women request a written Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim scholar), and refuse to abide by verbal ones. May Allah make us benefit from it and preserve the religion of this Ummah (nation based on one creed). Indeed, He is the One able to do so.
Ans:
It is not permissible to lighten above and below the eyebrows in the way that was mentioned, as it entails changing Allah’s creation and resembles Nams which is prohibited, being in the same sense. It is even more prohibited if it entails imitation of non-Muslims, or if it is harmful to the body or hair. This is because Allah (Exalted be He) says: …and do not throw yourselves into destruction The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said: “There should be neither harming nor reciprocating harm.”
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.

A BENEFIT FROM THE HADEETH OF ABDULLAH IBN MAS’UD: ACTIONS ARE BASED UPON WHAT THEY END UPON
Shaykh Abdur-Razzaaq al-Badr
People in relation to the beginning of their lives and end of their lives are of our four categories:
1. His beginning is good and his end is good
Ex. One who is born in Islam, is raised upon Islam and dies upon it.
2. His beginning is evil and his end is evil
Ex. One who is born with two disbelieving parents and they raise him Christian, Jew or majoos. So he is raised upon this and dies upon this.
3. His beginning is good and his end is evil
Ex. One who is born muslim and raised as muslim then apostates before he dies.
4. His beginning is evil and his end is good
Ex. One who is born from two disbelieving parents, raised as such in a disbelieving society then it is written for him to accept Islam so he dies upon that even if occurs an hour or day before his death.
