Saying Qadr Allahu Ma Sha'a faal

Don't ever lose hope in Allah or start to doubt him when something in life doesn't go your way. Instead take the advice of the greatest man who ever lived, peace & blessings be upon him..

Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam)said:

وإن أصابك شيء فلا تقل لو أني فعلت كذا لكان كذا وكذا لكن قل قدر الله وما شاء فعل…
“…And if something (bad) befalls you, do not say, ‘Had I only done such-and-such, then such-and-such would have happened, rather say: Qadrullaahi, wa maa shaa’ fa’ala (This is from the Qadr of Allaah, and He does whatever He wills).” [Muslim]

🔴From the signs of rudeness are:

🎓Ibn Masood رضي الله عنه said:

❝Four things are from rudeness:

🌟1) that a person urinates while standing;

🌟2) that a person prays while people are passing in front of him, and he does not have a Sutrah in front of him to act as a barrier between him and the people;

🌟3) that a person wipes the dust off his face (or forehead) while he is still in prayer;

🌟4) and that he hears the Muadhdhin (saying the Adhaan) but he does not repeat after him.❞

📚 [Sunan al-Kubraa of al-Baihaqee (3552) and Shaikh al-Albaanee graded it as “Saheeh” as a statement of Ibn Masood رضي الله عنه in “al-Irwaa” (1/97)]

Constantly Complaining - Symptoms Of Weak Faith.

Shaykh Al Albani رحمه الله said:

Tightness in the chest, mood swings and depression, which weigh a man down and make him quick to complain about the slightest thing, these all are symptoms of weak faith. A person easily gets upset with the people around him, and no longer has any tolerance. The Prophet (Peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) described faith when he said, “Eemaan is patience and tolerance”

The Ruling on Yoga - Shaykh Al-'Utaybee

Yoga is not simply a physical exercise, it is rather a form of worship to the sun instead of Allaah.

Definition from Merrium Webster Dictionary: a Hindu theistic philosophy teaching the suppression of all activity of body, mind, and will in order that the self may realize its distinction from them and attain liberation

Collins English dictionary defines Yoga as: a Hindu system of philosophy aiming at the mystical union of the self with the Supreme Being in a state of complete awareness and tranquillity through certain physical and mental exercises

Ruling on Yoga:
It is not permissible because the aqeedah behind it is Shirk. Even if for medical reasons, there are alternatives to yoga.

Some Bid'ahs Related to Burying the Dead:

It is not permissible to recite Surah Yasin or any other Surah over a grave during or after the burial. It is also impermissible to recite the Qur'an at graves because the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم did not do this nor did the Rightly-Guided Caliphs do this.

Likewise, it is not permissible to pronounce Adhan (call to Prayer) or Iqamah (call to start the Prayer) over the graves because this is Bid`ah (innovation in religion). It was authentically reported that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: He who does any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected. (Related by Imam Muslim in his Sahih)

Likewise, it is not permissible to plant anything on graves, whether aloe, barley, or wheat, since the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم did not do this, nor did the Rightly-Guided Caliphs (may Allah be pleased with them) do this. As for his صلى الله عليه وسلم planting palm leaves on two graves when Allah (Exalted be He) informed him that their occupants were being tormented, this act was limited to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم regarding those two graves in particular, as he did not do this with any other grave. Indeed, Muslims should not innovate worship acts that Allah has not prescribed, based upon the Hadith quoted above and on the verse in which Allah (Glorified be He) says: Or have they partners (with Allâh — false gods) who have instituted for them a religion which Allâh has not ordained?

May Allah grant us success.

Correctness of Methodology [Manhaj]

Question: Does the correctness of a person’s methodology determine Paradise or Hellfire for him?

Answer: Yes. When a person’s methodology is correct he becomes one of the inhabitants of Paradise. So when he is upon the methodology of the Messenger (ﷺ) and the methodology of the Salaf us-Salih, he becomes one of the people of Paradise by the permission of Allaah. But when he traverses upon the methodology of those who are astray, he has been threatened with Hellfire.

Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan

[Al-Ajwibah al-Mufidah, compiled by Jamal bin Farihan al-Harithi. Translated by Abu `Iyaad Amjad Rafiq]

📍Children of the world or the HereAfter?📍

"The thing I fear for you most is following desires and having extensive hopes (about this worldly life). Following one’s desires blocks you from the truth, and having extensive hopes makes you forget the hereafter. Verily, this worldly life is departing and the hereafter is approaching and each of them has its children. So be children of the hereafter, not children of this world, for today there are (opportunities to do) deeds and there is no reckoning, but tomorrow there will be reckoning and no deeds."

-‘Ali Ibn Abee Taalib رضي الله عنه
[Aboo Nu’aym, Hilyah Al-Awliyaa’, 1/40]

SHOULD I POST ABOUT MY NEWBORN BABY ON FACEBOOK?

Shaykh ‘Abdul-Muhsin Al-‘Abbād Al-Badr

Question: O Noble Shaykh, may Allah treat you well; I was blessed with a child. Is it permissible for me to spread the news of that via the internet or Facebook so that Dua can be made for him?

Answer: Not at all! Do not do this. You make Dua for him; his family is to make Dua for him. Do not busy yourself with these affairs. Everyone who has a child is going to post about it on the internet?!

Ibn Umar RA reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to the people. The most beloved deed to Allah is to make a Muslim happy, or to remove one of his troubles, or to forgive his debt, or to feed his hunger. That I walk with a brother regarding a need is more beloved to me than that I seclude myself in this mosque in Medina for a month. Whoever swallows his anger, then Allah will conceal his faults. Whoever suppresses his rage, even though he could fulfill his anger if he wished, then Allah will secure his heart on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever walks with his brother regarding a need until he secures it for him, then Allah the Exalted will make his footing firm across the bridge on the day when the footings are shaken.”

Hassan As-Sumaalee (حفظه الله):

We want the sisters to be upon Salafiyyah because they learn it from the Qur'aan and Sunnah, upon the understanding of the Salaf us Saalih. When the women learn in their houses with the people of the Sunnah, even the women reject innovation and misguidance.

Mecci ibn Ibraaheem said, “The wife of Jahm ibn Safwan entered upon my wife, and said ‘O mother of Ibraaheem, that is your husband, he is narrating about the Throne. Who carved this throne?'

The wife of Mecci said, “The one who fashioned your teeth is the one who carved the throne.’” (The wife of Jahm had large and clearly visible teeth).

What raises women? Knowledge, correct 'aqeedah, righteousness, piety and understanding raises women. This is what elevates women. At all times they require knowledge so that their worship can be correct.

On the authority of Anas bin Malik that the Prophet said:

❝Patience/calmness is from Allaah and haste is from Shaytaan.❞

🌟Get your priorities straight🌟

🚫 Even though Shirk & Bidah is spreading...
...people remain silent, saying: ❝you don't know what is in the heart.❞

🚫 Even though wanton display (Tabarruj by women and girls) is spreading...
...people remain silent, saying: ❝you don't know what is in the heart.❞

🚫 Even though vices (intoxicants/drugs/fornication etc) are spreading...
...people remain silent, saying: ❝you don't know what is in the heart.❞

🔥 But when the price of commodities increases...
...people come out to the streats, PROTESTING & SHOUTING: ❝the one who remains silent is a mute Shaitaan❞, ❝resist the oppression❞.

Indeed! What we suffer is because of our own doings:

أَوَلَمَّا أَصَابَتْكُم مُّصِيبَةٌ ...
{(What is the matter with you?) When a single disaster smites you...

... قُلْتُمْ أَنَّىٰ هَـٰذَا ۖ قُلْ هُوَ مِنْ عِندِ أَنفُسِكُمْ
...you say: "From where does this come to us?" Say (to them): "IT IS FROM YOURSELVES (because of your evil deeds)."}

Narrated Ibn `Umar: The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said:

Three Laughs and Three Tears

It is reported form Abû Al-Dardâ – Allâh be pleased with him – that he said, “Three make me laugh, and three make me cry.

Those that make me laugh are a person who puts his hopes in this worldly life while death pursues him, a person who is heedless [of his Lord] while [his Lord] is not heedless of him, and a person who always laughs while he does not know whether he has pleased Allâh or angered Him.

What makes me cry is being separated from my beloved: Muhammad and his party (the Companions), the horrors of the time of death, and standing in front of Allâh ‘azza wa jall on the Day when the secrets will be revealed and I do not know will I then go to Paradise or Hell?”

Ibn Al-Mubârak, Al-Zuhd wa Al-Raqâ`iq article 250.

♻️Anger Management♻️

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَجُلاً، قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَوْصِنِي. قَالَ لاَ تَغْضَبْ . فَرَدَّدَ مِرَارًا، قَالَ لاَ تَغْضَ

Narrated Abu Hurairah: A man said to the Prophet ﷺ: “Advise me!” The Prophet ﷺ said: “Do not become angry and furious.” The man asked (the same) again and again, and the Prophet ﷺ said in each case, “Do not become angry and furious.”

حضرت ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کرتے ہیں انہوں نے بیان کیا کہ ایک آدمی نے نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے عرض کیا کہ آپ مجھے نصیحت فرمائیں، آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ غصہ نہ کیا کرو اس نے کئی بار عرض کیا تو آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم یہی فرماتے رہے کہ غصہ نہ کرو۔

[Sahih Al-Bukhari, Kitab Al-Adab, Hadith: 6116]
Chapter: To be cautious from being angry.

Shamsuddeen Muhammad bin Abee Bakr Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah [D.751 A.H.] [رحمه الله] said:

❝There is no doubt that the heart becomes rusty just like brass and silver and other things become rusty, and it becomes bright and illuminated with Dhikr. It becomes so bright until it is a shiny mirror, therefore if the heart is left then it becomes rusty and if it remembers Allaah it becomes illuminated.

The heart becomes rusty due to two matters: due to negligence and sins, and it becomes illuminated with two things: with seeking forgiveness and Dhikr.❞
