It is reported that Ayyûb Al-Sakhtiyânî was asked:
Is knowledge today greater or lesser [in amount]? He replied, “There is more speech today, but there was more knowledge in the past.”

Rabee Bin Khuthaym (rahimahullaah) used to say:
"There is no good in speech except in nine (affairs): Tahleel (i.e. uttering Laa-ilaaha ilal-laah); Takbeer (i.e. uttering Allaahu Akbar); Tasbeeh (i.e. uttering Subhaanallaah); Tahmeed (i.e. uttering Al-Hamdulil-laah); Enquiring about good; Seeking refuge from evil; Enjoining good; Forbidding evil and Recitation of the Qur’aan."

Whoever taunts his brother for a sin will commit that sin.
Explained by Shaykh Fawzan HafizaHuAllah.
Student: Narrated from Mu’adh Ibn Jabal, he said the Messenger SallalahuAlaihiWasallam said:
Whoever shames his brother for a sin, will not die until he does it too.
Collected by At Tirmidhi who declared it Hassan, and its chain of narration is not continuous.
Shaykh Fawzan: Whoever shames his brother for a sin will not die until he does it too; meaning until he commits that sin which he taunted his brother for. The Muslims have sins, and they are not infallible. They are not infallible, they have sins. Infallibility is for
the Messengers. Therefore don’t take the people’s faults as a means to belittle them, mention their shortcomings and thus shame them with that. (By saying) O so and so who did such and such; mentioning his faults.
If you taunt him for his sin, then verily Allah will punish you such that you will not die until you have committed that sin. “Whoever shames his brother for a sin, will not die until he does it too.” This is as a punishment upon him.
Avoid mentioning the faults of the people. Conceal their faults. Advice, there is nothing preventing advice. Advice is obligatory, but as for condemning, the advisor does not condemn. People do not respond to condemnation, they respond to advice that has mercy and gentleness. There is a difference between advice and condemning. The person (who condemns his brother) will say: “No, this is from jealousy (for the religion)!” We say no; this is not jealousy for the religion, this is not permissible. Jealousy for the religion is for you to advise him and show him mercy, and conceal his faults, this is jealousy for the religion. As for exposing and humiliation, this is not permissible. It is obligatory to cover your brother.

14 Instances in Which it is Disliked to Give the Salaam – By Shaikh Al-Fawzaan
By Aboo Haatim M. Farooq
الحمد لله وحده، والصلاة والسلام على من لا نبي بعده، وعلى آله وصحبه، أما بعد
Shaikh Saalih bin Fawzaan Al-Fawzaan (hafidhahullaah) said during his explanation of the text of Mandhoomah Al-Adaab:
“These are the instances in which giving the salaam is disliked:
The 1⃣ instance: it is disliked to give salaam to the one who is speaking, since he is busy in conversation with other than himself.
The 2⃣ instance: ‘with regards to the one who is busy with dhikr (remembrance of Allaah)’ – by way of tasbeeh (saying: subhaanallaah) and tahleel (saying: laa ilaaha illallaah) and in the recital of the Qur’aan.
The 3⃣ instance: with regards to the one who is pre-occupied with the hadeeth from the sayings of Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam).
The 4⃣ instance: giving salaam to the khateeb except during the Friday sermon; since it is forbidden to speak during the Friday sermon; and so giving salaam to the khateeb & to those in attendance is impermissible.
The 5⃣ instance: ‘the one delivering a lecture’ – the one who is delivering a lesson relating to the Qur’aan or relating to hadeeth or Fiqh or in grammar – do not give salaam to him. Some people; when they come to a gathering and the lesson is in progress; he will give the salaam and raise his voice, this is disliked because this distracts the teacher just as it distracts those who are sat listening and so they turn their attention to him.
The 6⃣ instance: ‘those who are researching in the sciences’ – whoever is researching an issue from the issues of knowledge then do not extend the salaam towards him and thus disrupt his research; this is not legislated.
The 7⃣ instance: ‘one who is delivering an admonition’ – whoever is admonishing the people; then do not give the salaam if you approach, rather sit and listen to the admonition. Do not extend the salaam; because you will distract the admonisher as well as distract those that are listening.
The 8⃣ instance: the one who is reiterating/revising in (an issue of) Fiqh; and he is the one who is revising/studying Fiqh.
The 9⃣ instance: the muadhin; if he is giving the adhaan then do not extend the salaam towards him whilst he is giving the adhaan; since you will interrupt him from the adhaan.
The 🔟 instance: ‘the one who is praying’ – if you arrive and someone is praying; do not extend the salaam towards him until he has concluded his prayer. It has been reported that one of the companions gave the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) the salaam whilst he was in prayer and so he responded to him with an ishaarah (indication).[1] Therefore is someone gives you salaam whilst you are praying then you should respond to him with an ishaarah.
The 1⃣1⃣ instance: ‘the one who is observing purification’ – the one who is performing the wudhu then do not extend the salaam towards him until he has concluded his wudhu. As for the one who is bathing for other than the purpose of worship; in order to keep cool or to clean himself then there is nothing preventing you from giving him salaam.
The 1⃣2⃣ instance: likewise it is not legislated to give the salaam to the one who is preoccupied with eating.
The 1⃣3⃣ instance: ‘to the one who is defecating’ – this is more severe; and he is the one who is urinating or defecating – do not give him salaam whilst he is relieving himself. Since it is disliked for the one who is defecating or urinating that he should speak in this situation; so do not give him salaam.
The 1⃣4⃣ instance: ‘the one who is fighting the enemy in a war’ – the last type is the Mujaahid who is in the instance of fighting; you should not extend salaam to the one who is fighting because he is busied from you in fighting the enemies of Allaah.”
(Taken from: Ithaaf At-Tullaab bi-Sharh Mandhoomah Al-Adaab p.219-221)

🔹Narrated that Abu Hurayrah said:
“The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: ‘When Friday comes, at each door of the mosque there are angels who write down the first ones to come to the mosque. Then when the imaam sits down they close their books and come to listen to the sermon. The one who comes early (for Friday prayer) is like who sacrificed a camel, then those who come after him (in order of their coming) are like one who sacrificed a cow, then one who sacrificed a horned ram, then one who sacrificed a chicken, then like one who offered an egg.”

“The day of Friday has twelve hours, in which there is no Muslim slave who asks Allah for anything but He will grant it to him, so seek it in the last hour after ‘Asr.”
