Consequences of Leaving the Scholars

These Are The Salaf


Shaykh Muhammad Nasir Uddeen al-Albaani said about the Ayaah:

﴿وَمَنْ يُشَاقِقِ الرَّسُولَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُ الْهُدَىٰ وَيَتَّبِعْ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ نُوَلِّهِ مَا تَوَلَّىٰ وَنُصْلِهِ جَهَنَّمَ وَسَاءَتْ مَصِيرًا‏﴾‏

«And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger after the right path has been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers’ way. We shall keep him in the path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell – what an evil destination» [Soorah An-Nisa’ 115]

❝So the path of the believers: they are the Salaf as-Salih.❞

[Al-Huda Wa Noor, (No. 544) | Translated By Abbas Abu Yahya Miraath al-Anbiyya]

Sαℓαf Athαr:
Palace In Paradise


From Mua’dh bin al-Juhni the Companion of the Messenger of Allaah [ﷺ] from the Prophet [ﷺ] who said:

❝'Whoever reads «قُل هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ» 'Say, ‘He is Allaah, [who is] One' [Soorah Ikhlas] until he finishes it ten times then Allaah builds a Palace for him in Paradise as well as additional benefits.'

Umar said: ‘Then we will have a lot of Palaces O Messenger of Allaah!’

The Prophet [ﷺ] said:

‘Allaah has more and what is better.’❞

[Silsilah Ahadeeth as-Saheehah By Shaykh al-Albaani, (No.589) | Translated By Abbas Abu Yahya Miraath al-Anbiyya]

"Does beautifying, expensive clothing, and expensive perfume take away asceticism?

Answer (Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan)

"People should be in the middle, If Allah blessed a person then he should be in the middle and not be wasteful in his spending on clothing , cars, or perfume. Nor should he (intend to) be like a poor person in which case he would be fighting against the blessing of Allah upon him (by not spending that which Allah gave him in a medium way.) The best of matters are those that are balanced and in the middle, being between squandering and being miserly with his money. Allah says:

"And [they are] those who, when they spend, do so not excessively or sparingly but are ever, between that, [justly] moderate" 25:67

So the middle is between excessive spending and being miserly."

‎Shaykh Fawzaan حفظه الله: "Allāh is the Lord of Ramadan, the Lord of Shawwal, He is the Lord of all the months, so have taqwa in all the months".

‎Shaykh Fawzaan حفظه الله: "Protect & safeguard your religion, and cling to it in all months and at all times."

‎Shaykh Fawzaan حفظه الله: "Indeed, Ramadan is followed with gratefulness (to Allaah), it is followed by seeking forgiveness."

As Received!

The Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم mentioned:

"...All men go out early in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves free or destroying themselves."
[Muslim:223]

Shaikh Salih al-Fawzan حفظه الله mentioned:

"People leave their homes early in the morning, where do they go? They go to their work, either buying or selling, or employment.

The exiting of a person from his home will either cast him into evil, or into goodness. So if he goes to seek knowledge, or to perform obedience, then he obtains goodness.
But if he leaves to go to sinning, evil and wrongdoing then he will obtain evil.
Hence, by exiting from his home, he goes out to (ending up in) either goodness or evil.

Hence a person who exits from his home either frees himself or destroys himself.

Therefore, upon the Muslim is to remember this, and to guard over himself when exiting and going out of his home. And he must guard his hearing, his eyesight, and limbs, in order that he is from those who free themselves. If however, he does not guard his limbs and body parts then he will be from those who have destroyed themselves."

The time for morning and evening Adhkaar

Shaikh Ibn Baaz said:

The matter is broad (in scope). The (Adkaar) can be done before the prayer or after it. If a person does it before the Sunset after Asr, then that is better, or if after the Sunset, then there is no issue with that (either). Allaah تعالى said:

{So glorify Allaah when you reach the evening and when you reach the morning.} [Surah al-Room (30): 17]

And He تعالى also said:

{…and Glorify the Praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before its setting,} [Surah Qaaf (50): 39]

What is intended is that the Glorification and the Praises and all the legislated Adhkaar should be done near the end of the day and it can be done at the (very) beginning of the night, this is regarding the Adhkaar of the evening. As for the Adkhaar of the morning, it should be done at the beginning of the Day (i.e. when the Dawn enters, i.e. when the time for Fajr begins), or after the Fajr prayer, or after the Sunrise. The scope is broad, and All Praise is for Allaah Alone.

Shaikh Ibn al-Uthaymeen رحمه الله and the Lajna of the senior scholars also held the same opinion.

*HOW SHOULD ONE TREAT IF ONE'S CHILDREN OR FAMILY MEMBERS LIE?*

If one of the children or family members of a person lies, he should treat this issue as did the Prophet Muhammed (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) treated.

If he (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) came to know that one of his family members had lied, he would keep away from him until he repented.

(al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, no. 2052; Saheeh al-Jaami, no. 4675)

Ibn Taimiyyah: The Effects of Piety and Sin on Beauty

Shaykh ul-Islaam Ahmad bin AbdulHaleem Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- said: Every time a person increases in doing good acts and Taqwaa 1then his goodness and beauty strengthens.

Every time his sinning and enmity strengths then his ugliness2 and disfigurement increases . . . . So we see the faces of the people of the Sunnah and obedience3, that, as they grow older, their beauty and radiance increases so much so that you find one of them in his senior age better and more beautiful than when he was younger.

We find that the faces of the people of Bida’ and sinning, every time they grow older their ugliness and disfigurement gets worse so much for so that you cannot even look at them, those who were dazzled and deceived by the people of Bida’ and sinning when they were young due to the beauty of their forms.

This is apparent in everyone [from the people of Bida’] who glorifies his Bida’ and his evil, like the Rafidah, and the people of tyranny, oppression and evil deeds. . . Since indeed every time the Rafidi gets older his face gets uglier and his disfigurement gets worse to the extent his resemblance to a pig increases, and perhaps transforms into a pig and a monkey as it has been frequently mentioned about them….’
