It is reported that Abû Hâzim Al-Ashja’î – Allâh have mercy on him – said:

If you find yourself in a time when speech is accepted as knowledge and knowledge is accepted as deeds [instead of putting it into practice], then you are in the worst time and with the worst people.

Abû Bakr Al-Daynûrî, Al-Mujâlasah wa Jawâhir Al-‘Ilm` 4:338.

AKHLAAQ [MORAL CHARACTER, BEHAVIOUR, TRAITS ETC] HAVE LIMITS – BY IMAAM IBNUL QAYYIM رحمه الله

Akhlaaq [i.e. mannerisms, moral character, behaviour or traits, which are part of a person’s natural disposition or nurtured in him (or her)] have limits. Transgression occurs when one goes beyond its limits and deficiency and humiliation occurs when one falls short.

The limits of Anger are: Praiseworthy bravery and having a dislike for despicable and deficient [behaviour, moral character etc.]. This is its perfection. But when one goes beyond its limits, he transgresses and oppresses; and if his anger is deficient, he will behave in a cowardly manner and will not detest despicable [behaviour, moral character etc.].

The limits of Envy are: [Praiseworthy] competition in seeking after perfection and not wanting the other competitor to excel you; [but] if a person goes beyond its limits, it leads to jealous animosity and oppression through which a person wishes that the one he envies should be deprived of blessings and is eager to harm him. And if a person lacks [what is required of it], it leads to disesteem and a weakness in one’s ambition.

The Prophet [sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam] said:
‘’There should be no envy except in two [people]: a person whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the right way, and a person whom Allah has given wisdom [i.e. religious knowledge] and he judges by way of it and teaches it to the others.”

This type of envy [necessitates praiseworthy] competition between one another and the Haasid [i.e. the one who is envious of his or her competitor] seeks -by way of it- to be similar to the one he [or she] envies, whilst not [harbouring that] despised envy which [necessitates that he or she] wishes that the blessings bestowed upon the envied one should cease to exist.

The limits of Desires are: A [source] of relaxation for the heart and intellect after exerting oneself in carrying out acts of obedience and seeking to accomplish virtuous deeds. However, when a person goes beyond its limits, it leads to a strong and barely uncontrollable emotion and lewdness, and thus the person descends to the level of animals. However, when a person is lacking in desire and does not [utilised it as a means] of seeking after perfection and virtue, it leads to weakness, impotence and humiliation.
And among the most noble and beneficial sciences is the knowledge regarding the hudood [the appropriate limits], especially the divine limits-the commands and prohibitions [ordained by Allaah (The Most High) and His Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam)]. The most knowledgeable people are those who have the most knowledge regarding those divine limits, hence they neither include- in those limits- that which is not from them nor remove that which is included in them. Allaah [The Most High] said:

‎ٱلۡأَعۡرَابُ أَشَدُّ ڪُفۡرً۬ا وَنِفَاقً۬ا وَأَجۡدَرُ أَلَّا يَعۡلَمُواْ حُدُودَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِ
The bedouins are the worst in disbelief and hypocrisy, and more likely to be in ignorance of the limits (Allah’s Commandments and His Legal Laws, etc.) which Allah has revealed to His Messenger. [Soorah At-Tawbah’ Aayah 97]

Therefore, the most just, balanced and upright people are those who stay within the limits of the Akhlaaq, actions and the deeds legislated in the Islamic legislation- in knowledge and practice.

Shaykh 'Abd al-Razzaq Ibn 'Abd al-Muhsin al-Abbad:

O precious, virtuous sister, your happiness is connected to this religion and clinging to its wise directives, it's noble etiquette, and it's sound guidance, which are the honour of a woman and her success. If you are searching for true beauty and complete adornment, know that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ says: "But the clothing of righteousness - that is the best." (7:26)

And it states in an [authentically] transmitted supplication: "O Allah beautify us with the adornment of Iman." Faith, fearing Allah, and adhering to the legislation, rulings and directives of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is true adornment and true beauty - and this is true happiness. It is the success of people in their worldly life and their hereafter.

From the guidance of the Qur'an for the woman is that she has been commanded to beware of displaying herself and lewd dressing (safoor), the action of the former times of ignorance. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ said: "And do not display yourselves as [was] the display of the former times of ignorance." (33:33)

🎓Ibn al-Sammaak said:

❝The whole of the Dunya (from its beginning to its end, in comparison to the Hereafter) is very little, and what is remaining of it is even less. And your share of this leftover is very little, and what is remaining from it (your share) is even less.❞

📚 [Siyar A`laam al-Nubalaa']

✒ Fahad Barmem

If a person says that he does not make supplication because he relies on the divine decree, he is also erring, because Allah has made du’aa and asking means of attaining His forgiveness, mercy, guidance, support and provision.

If good is decreed for a person he will attain by du’aa what he cannot attain without du’aa. What Allah has decreed and knows with regard to His slaves’ circumstances and destinies is only decreed on the basis of means and decrees will be fulfilled at the appointed times.

There is nothing that happens in this world or in the Hereafter except on the basis of cause and effect; Allah is the Creator of both cause and effect. Disregarding the principle of cause and effect is contrary to reason.


Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah ~ Majmu al-Fatawa (8/69)

Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem

The great scholar, Shaykh Saalih al-Fowzaan (may Allaah preserve him), was asked:

What is “ta’aalum”? And what is your advice to the youth who face trials due to people engaged in ta’aalum?

He replied:

Ta’aalum is to feign knowledge. Feigning knowledge. It is when a person claims knowledge, while he is not knowledgeable in reality. He has not taken any knowledge directly from the scholars. Rather, he merely learned some things from books, solely from reading. He lacks sound fundamentals to build upon; he just reads things in books and proceeds according to his own understanding, likely erring more than being correct. This is a person of ta’aalum. He is a danger to himself (firstly) and to everyone (at large), since he plays games with the religion of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic.

If a man came out and said to the people, “I’m a physician, I’m a doctor, and I treat (the sick),” while he does not have any medical qualifications, no medical qualifications at all, would he be allowed to treat (the sick)? Would he be allowed to perform surgeries, opening patients up and performing heart operations? He would not be allowed to do that, because it would be harmful. So how can a person of ta’aalum be allowed to play with the religion?! Playing with the religion is more serious than meddling with people’s bodies!

So they must fear Allah and not speak about Allah without knowledge, for Allah has made speaking about Him without knowledge worse than shirk (polytheism)!

قل إنما حرم ربي الفواحش ما ظهر منها وما بطن والإثم والبغي بغير الحق وأن تشركوا بالله ما لم ينزل به سلطانا وأن تقولوا على الله ما لا تعلمون
Say, “My Lord has only forbidden immoralities, what is apparent of them and what is concealed, sin, oppression without right, that you associate partners with Allaah which He has sent down no authority for, and that you say about Allaah what you do not have knowledge of.” (Al A’raaf 7:33)

Such people must fear Allaah and get an education before speaking.

It is reported that ‘Abdullâh b. Al-Mubârak – Allâh 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.

Al-Dhahabî, Siyar A’lâm Al-Nubalâ`17:251.

SOULS ARE LIKE RECRUITED TROOPS...⬇

Narrated Aisha (radiyallaahu-anhaa): I heard the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) saying,

‘’Souls are like recruited troops; those who are of like qualities are inclined to each other, but those who have dissimilar qualities differ.’’

[Saheeh Bukhaari Vol 4. Hadeeth Number 3336. Darusallam]

Al-Haafidh Ibn Hajar (rahimahullaah) stated one of the meanings of this hadeeth in Fat-hul Baari that Al-Khattaabi (rahimahullaah) said:

This may indicate to mean similarity in good and evil, righteousness or corruption – the good one amongst the people is inclined towards one similar to him, and the evil one is similarly inclined towards the one similar to him.

Souls have an affinity with others in accordance with the nature in which they were created, good or evil. They will agree if their natures are similar, otherwise they will be at loggerheads…

Shaikh Saalih bin Fawzaan bin al-Fawzaan said:

"Some people may ask:

'What is the reason for mentioning the aspects of the Days of Ignorance when the period of Jaahiliyyah has come to an end? We are Muslims, all praise be to Allaah.'

We respond to this saying: The reason for mentioning them is to warn against them.

This is since if the seeker of knowledge is aware of them, he will stay away from them. But if he is unaware of them and has no knowledge of them, he may fall into committing one of them.

So we mention and study them for the sake of knowing what they are in order to avoid them and beware of them. A poet said:

'I learned evil, not for the sake of evil, but in order to avoid it, And whoever is not aware of evil, will fall into it. '

This is from one perspective. And the second perspective, if you become aware of the aspects of the Days of Ignorance, you will then become aware of the great virtue of Islaam, as the poet said:

'The beauty of a thing is made apparent by its opposite

And it is through its opposite that things become clear.' ..."

📚 An Explanation of "Aspects of the Days of Ignorance", page 21 (English translation)

Abu Sa`eed al-Khudree narrated that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم:

❝Shaitaan said (to Allaah): “By Your Might! I will will keep misleading Your slaves and will not stop as long as their souls are in their bodies.” Allaah تعالى replied: “By My Might and My Majesty! I will keep forgiving them as long as they seek My forgiveness”.❞

📚 [Mustadrak al-Haakim (7672), Musnad Ahmad and graded as “Hasan” by Shaikh al-Albaanee in al-Saheehah (104), Saheeh al-Jaami` (1650), Saheeh al-Targheeb (1617)]

Dua - Placing children under Allaah's protection

The Messenger of Allaah (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) used to commend al-Hasan and al-Husayn to Allaah's protection, saying:

أُعِيذُكُمَا بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ وَهَامَّةٍ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ عَيْنٍ لاَمَّةٍ

I seek protection for you in the Perfect Words of Allah from every devil and every beast, and from every envious blameworthy eye.

U'eethukumaa bikalimaatil-laahit-taammati min kulli shaytaanin wa haammatin, wa min kulli 'aynin laammatin.

Ahlul Qur'an Wal Hadeeth:
🔖Do You Really Want Paradise?
🖊Author: Jawad Ahmed
❆━━━━━━━━━❃━━━━━━━━━━❆
Knowledge is the key and that is why our Prophet ﺻﻠﻰﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭ ﺳﻠﻢ
used to supplicate in every prayer,"Allahumma Inni Auzubikaa Min Illmin Laa Yanf'aau." O Allah! I seek refuge in you from Knowledge that does not benefit.
It doesn't benefit you brothers and sisters.
For hours and hours you are sitting in front of that T.V. and its not benefitting you as its not leading you to Paradise.
For hours and hours you waste time on bed-time novels or on magazines and newspapers in a month and yet it doesn't lead you to Paradise.
When all that time you could have been studying Quran and Hadeeth or reading Islamic books instead of bed-time story novels and yet making easier for yourself the road to Paradise, and achieving it Insha Allah.
Not only does it not benefit you, but moreso it harms you.
Hours and hours of those T.V. programs are not teaching you Quran and Sunnah, rather teaching you how to date, or how to hook someone from the opposite sex, or teaching you violence or foul language.
Thus instilling evil and wicked ideas and things into your mind and heart, just for the pleasure of this temporary world, and making you further away from your destination of Paradise.
In conclusion, I say this brothers and sisters.
We need to get our "cars" (Islam) fixed and focused on the right direction to our destination of Paradise.
We need to pick up the "maps" (Quran & Hadeeth) and ask knowledgeable people (scholars/imams) for directions (road/path) to Paradise.

Knowledge of the religion was spread by the Companions who took it from the Prophet ﷺ and taught, judged, reported and issued fatāwā after him. Ibn Al-Qayyim describes from whom the knowledge spread after the Companions from the main centres of learning. He says (ʿIʾlām Al-Muwaqiʿīn 2:38):

The religion, fiqh and knowledge spread throughout the Ummah from the companions of Ibn Masʿūd, the companions of Zayd b. Thābit, the companions of ʿAbdullāh Ibn ʿUmar and the companions of ʿAbdullāh Ibn ʿAbbās. The knowledge of all the people in general [after them] is taken from these four Companions. As for the people of Medīnah, their knowledge came from the companions of Zayd b. Thābit and ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar. As for the people of Makkah, their knowledge came from the companions of ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAbbās. And as for the people of ʿIrāq, their knowledge came from the companions of ʿAbdullāh b. Masʿūd.

Shaykh Sālih al-Fawzān [حفظه الله] said:

❝The individuals who ascribe themselves to [giving] Da'wah, it is mandatory that they be investigated:

• Where did they study?
• Where did they take knowledge from?
• Where were they reared?
• What are their beliefs?
• Their actions must be investigated, their effects upon the people, along with what good they have brought about.
• What rectification has their actions produced?

Their affairs must be investigated before [the people] are misled by their statements and what is apparent from them. This investigation is mandatory, especially during the present time in which the callers of Fitnah are many.❞

The Correct Place of Opinion

Al-Awzāʿī reports that Caliph ʿUmar b. ʿAbd Al-ʿAzīz – Allāh have mercy on him – wrote (in his orders):

There is no place for anyone’s opinion [when it comes to] what is in the Book (revelation). The opinion of the imāms (great scholars) is only regarding what the Book did not come down with, and regarding which no Sunnah has passed from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. And the opinion of no one is counted in the face of a Sunnah from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.

Protecting the Home by
Recitation of the Qur’aan

‼Abu Hurayrah رضى الله عنه narrated that the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“Do not make your homes like graveyards, indeed shaytaan avoids the home in which Sooratul-Baqarah is read.” [1]

‼ Ibn Mas’ood رضى الله عنه narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“Verily everything has a high point, and the highest point of the Qur’aan is Sooratul-Baqarah, and verily shaytaan, if he hears Sooratul-Baqarah recited,
he leaves the house in which Sooratul-Baqarah is recited.” [2]


‼And the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“Recite Sooratul-Baqarah in your homes, for indeed shaytaan does not enter a house in which Sooratul-Baqarah is recited in.” [3]

‼Aboo Mas’ood narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“Whoever recites the two verses from the end of Sooratul-Baqarah in a night, they will suffice him.” [4]

🍄 ‘Uqbah bin ‘Aamir narrated that the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

“Recite these two aayaat that are at the end of Sooratul-Baqarah, for indeed my Lord gave them to me from under the ‘Arsh.” [5]
