Abu Musa (May Allah bepleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The relationship of the believer with another believer is like (the bricks of) a building, each strengthens the other." He (ﷺ) illustrated this by interlacing the fingers of both his hands.

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri:
....Then the bridge will be laid across Hell." We, the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! What is the bridge?'
He said, "It is a slippery (bridge) on which there are clamps and (Hooks like) a thorny seed that is wide at one side and narrow at the other and has thorns with bent ends. Such a thorny seed is found in Najd and is called As-Sa'dan. Some of the believers will cross the bridge as quickly as the wink of an eye, some others as quick as lightning, a strong wind, fast horses or she-camels. So some will be safe without any harm; some will be safe after receiving some scratches, and some will fall down into Hell (Fire). The last person will cross by being dragged (over the bridge)."

Ayn / Nazar / Evil Eye
The evil eye is real and extremely dangerous. It almost overcomes the Qadr of Allah! Meaning, the messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) wanted to emphasise how serious it is.
Ibn 'Abbas reported Allah's Messenger as saying: "The influence of 'ayn is a fact; if anything would precede the destiny it would be the influence of the eye (Sahih Muslim)
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amir bin Rabi’ah, from his father, that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “The evil eye is real.” (ibn Majah)
➔ Some situations when you can get 'Ayn
○ When you are amazed at something. So for example you see a nice car and you say "WOW" and you don't invoke the blessings of Allah nor mention Him - you can easily give the evil eye to that person or put it on that thing - so it will have an accident or always be unreliable
○ When you see something that is really pleasing or cute - for example children easily get the 'ayn because they are so cute when they crawl or talk or the things they do
○ Due to jealousy / envy - so someone who has a diseased heart sees something that you have or a quality you possess and he is envious of you. This festers in his heart and can cause major problems for you
○ When you look at yourself and become impressed at your beauty etc. You don't thank Allah and you can give yourself the eye
➔ How to protect from the 'Ayn
○ If you see something that you like, or that is cute, or that you appreciate; invoke the blessings of Allah for that thing. Say something like Allahumma baarik, barakAllahu feek or even maa'shaa'Allah. There are videos circulating online where someone emphatically claims that maa'shaa'Allah is not enough to ward off the evil eye. I do not agree with this. And here is what our brother Muhammad Tim added to this particular discussion -
"This is the safest method (i.e. to say Allahumma baarik etc), and the method which is most apparent from the wording of the hadeeth. I corrected this a long time ago, in the notes on the evil eye, and the lectures which are based on those notes.
However, there remains one point to mention, and that is that many of the scholars said that it is enough to mention Allāh in any such way that indicates that blessings come from Him. Among the evidence which they quoted for this is the aayah in al-Kahf.
Therefore, I think that for someone to say with certainty that it is not enough to say Mā shā' Allāh is wrong, and that the summary of the matter is that if a person mentions Allāh, then this is sufficient to ward off the evil eye; however, the more complete and better way is not only to mention Allāh, but to seek blessings for the person as well. (Taken from his website)
○ Seek refuge with Allah from the evil eye for yourselves and your children
○ Do not openly flaunt your blessings - ESPECIALLY NOT ONLINE!
○ Surround yourself with the shield of adhkaar morning and evening - see the book "The Fortress Of The Muslim"
➔ Should you fear the evil eye?
Take your precautions, place your trust in Allah and live life! Do not live in constant fear of Ayn! But at the same time do not become negligent of it!

Four benefits of saying “Allah knows best”
By Shaykh Abdur-Rahman bin Naasir al-Sa’dee may Allah have mercy on him
The Shaykh mentions this point of benefit in his risaalah “From the mannerisms of the Learned and Learners” and is found in his book “al-Fataawa as-Si’deeyah”.
From the greatest obligations upon the teachers is to refrain from speaking about things they have no knowledge of by saying, “Allah knows best”. This does not diminish their status, rather it increases their degree. It shows their perfection in the deen and causes them to investigate for the correct answer.
Benefits of refraining from speaking without knowledge
Refraining from speaking without knowledge has numerous benefits. From them:
1.It something obligatory upon every individual.
2.If one stops and says, “Allah knows best” then it will be a means to attain knowledge faster, because either the teacher, or another, will review the issue. When the student sees his teacher diligent and serious in obtaining that knowledge, then the teacher becomes a valuable gift to him . And what a perfect influence this is!
3.When a person refrains from indulging in what he has no knowledge of, then this is a sign for his reliability, integrity, perfection in his surety regarding masaa’il (issues). Likewise, the one who is known to speak about affairs he has no knowledge of is doubtful (to the people) every time he speaks, even in clear issues.
4.If the students see from their teacher that he stops in affairs he doesn’t have knowledge of, then in that is educating and guidance to this beautiful path. And being an example in situations through actions stands out more than being an example through statements.

Al-Hârith b. Qays – Allah have mercy on him – said:
"When intending to do something good, do not delay it until tomorrow. When involved in something to do with the hereafter, keep yourself involved as long as you can. When involved in some worldly matter, put your mind to it (so as to get it done). And if you are praying and Shaytân whispers, ‘You are showing off,’ then make your prayer even longer."

The four gems in your body....
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said: "There are four gems in the body of the son of Adam that are removed by four things. As for the gems, they are: intellect, Religion, Shame, and Good Deeds.
Anger removes the intellect, envy removes religion, desire removes shame, and backbiting removes good deeds."
Reference: Ibn Hajr Al-Asqalani in, 'Preparing for the day of Judgement', Ch. 3: "Counsel in fours", Qt.(17)

الحكمة Al Hikmah:
Beware of '#young #celebrity #muslim' speakers!
From the sayings of the salaf, it is reported that there was a young man who was from the people of knowledge who used to put himself forward, speak and behave haughtily with his knowledge in front of those older than him.
This angered Sufyân [Ath-Thawrî] and he said,
“The Salaf were never like this; they never used to claim leadership, or sit at the head of the gathering until they had sought this knowledge for thirty years, and you act haughty in front of those who are older than you. Get up, I never want to see you even come close to my circle."
[Al-Bayhaqi, Al-Madkhal ila Al-Sunan Al-Kubra 2:74.]

*The 3 types of oppression -Imam Sadi*
_بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم_
An excerpt from Imam Sadi’s Sharh of the hadeeth:
اتقوا الظلم فإن الظلم ظلمات يوم “القيامة"
*Fear oppression, for indeed oppression is darkness on yawmul qiyaamah.*
Agreed upon
———–
The shaykh says at the end of his sharh that there are three types of oppression:
1️⃣ - A type that Allah does not forgive, and it is associating partners with Allah
*“Indeed Allah does not forgive those who associate partners with him”* An-Nisa; Verse 48
2️⃣- A type of oppression that Allah does not leave anything from it; and it is the oppression of the slaves one to another. So from the perfection of Allah’s justice is that he will punish the creation, in accordance to their oppressing each other.
3️⃣- A type of oppression which is under the will of Allah; if Allah wills he will punish him, and if he wills he will forgive its people, and (this oppression) is the sins which are between the slaves and his Lord, regarding that which is lesser than shirk.

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?”

Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه narrated that the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ❝THERE WILL COME TO THE PEOPLE YEARS OF TREACHERY, WHEN THE LIAR WILL BE REGARDED AS HONEST, AND THE HONEST MAN WILL BE REGARDED AS A LIAR; THE TRAITOR WILL BE REGARDED AS FAITHFUL, AND THE FAITHFUL MAN WILL BE REGARDED AS A TRAITOR...❞
📚 [Sunan Ibn Maajah (4036). Shaikh al-Albaanee graded it as “Hasan li shawaahidihee” (Good due to other supporting chains) in “al-Saheehah” (1887). Shaikh Muqbil also graded it as “Hasan li ghairihee” in “Saheeh Dalaail al-Nubuwwah” (568)]

📚 [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (7068)]
⚡ WHEN THE LIAR WILL BE REGARDED AS HONEST // THE TRAITOR WILL BE REGARDED AS FAITHFUL:

❤️9 – We regard reading the Qur’aan as a means for guidance.
Allaah Ta’ala said:
((ذلك الكتاب لا ريب فيه هدى للمتقين))
《 This is the Book (the Qur’aan), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqun [the pious and righteous]》[Baqara: 2]
In the Hadeeth Qudsi:
“ياعبادي كلكم ضال إلا من هديته فاستهدوني أهدكم”
‘O My worshippers all of you are astray except for the one whom I have guided, so seek guidance from Me and I will guide you.’
[Collected by Muslim]
❤10 – We read the Qur’aan with the intention that we die while following the Qur’aan.
Just like when Allaah Ta’ala granted Uthmaan –Radhi Allaahu anhu– martyrdom while he was reading the Qur’aan.
Ibn Katheer -rahimahullaah- said:
‘Whoever lives according to something then he dies upon that and whoever dies upon something then he will be resurrected upon that. . . . . based upon the saying of Allaah Ta’ala:
((أم حسب اللذين اجترحوا السيئات أن نجعلهم كالذينآمنوا وعملوا الصالحات سواء محياهم ومماتهم ساءمايحكمون))
《 Or do those who earn evil deeds think that We shall hold them equal with those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah) and do righteous good deeds, in their present life and after their death? Worst is the judgement that they make. 》[Jatheeya:21 ]

As is in the Hadeeth:
“إنك مع من أحببت”
‘Indeed you will be with whom you loved’
[Collected by Muslim]
❤️12 – We regard reading the Qur’aan as a great means for the increase of Eemaan. This is due to the saying of Allaah Ta’ala :
(( وإذا ما أنزلت سورة فمنهم من يقول أيكم زادته هذهإيمانا فأما اللذين آمنوا فزادتهم إيمانا وهميستبشرون))
《 And whenever there comes down a Surah (chapter from the Qur’aan), some of them (hypocrites) say: “Which of you has had his Faith increased by it?” As for those who believe, it has increased their Faith, and they rejoice. 》 [Tawbah:124]
❤13 – From our intentions of reading the Qur’aan is that indeed we want to increase our knowledge about our Lord and knowing about Him by which we can increase our humility and neediness of Him so that we can seek assistance from Him in every single moment of ours.
❤️14 – From intentions for reading the Qur’aan is that we hope by reading it we acquire a great excellence which is that it will be a means for Allaah Ta’ala to choose us to be from His people and those special to Him due to the saying of the beloved Messenger:
إن لله أهلين من الناس
‘Indeed Allaah has a certain people from among the people.’
They asked: ‘who are they O Messenger of Allaah?’
He answered:
“هم أهل القرآن ، أهل الله وخاصته”
‘They are the people of the Qur’aan, the people of Allaah and those special to Him.’
Authenticated by Albaani[8]
❤️15 – From the greatest of intentions and most important of them and at the forefront of them is that we worship Allaah Ta’ala by reading the Qur’aan
This is due to the saying of Allaah Ta’ala:
((ورتل القرآن ترتيلا))
《and recite the Qur’aan (aloud) in a slow, (pleasant tone and) style 》 [Muzamil:4]
After all what has preceded, have you ever asked yourself what is your intention while you read the Noble Qur’aan.

Q: “Should a woman cover her feet when she prays?”
Shaikh al-Albaani:
“It is not permissible for her to pray with her feet uncovered, indeed it is not permissible for her to walk in the streets with her feet uncovered, because the feet are part of a woman’s
[1] Surat un-Noor 24:31
[2] Surat ul-Ahzaab 33:59
[3] the Shaikh mentioned the general meaning, not the exact wording, of the woman’s speech
[4] Saheeh at-Tirmidhi 1731, Saheeh Abi Daawood 4119
[silsilat ul-hudaa wa nnoor 697/3-4 / asaheeha translations]
Shaikh al-Albaani:
“It is not permissible for her to pray with her feet uncovered, indeed it is not permissible for her to walk in the streets with her feet uncovered, because the feet are part of a woman’s
awrah based on Allaah’s عز وجل Statement: {And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment}.[1] The woman during the Days of Ignorance used to wear what is known in the Arabic language as khalkhaal (anklet), meaning a bracelet with small bells. So when the woman walked, she – in order to turn the men’s attention to her – would strike the ground with her feet so the anklet would make a noise and the men would hear that; and such was due to shaitaan’s whisperings to her.
This means that the feet used to be covered. Because of what? Because of the jilbaab that the women were commanded to cast down from over their heads, according to Allaah’s Statement: {O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their outer garments (jilbaabs) close upon themselves}.[2] And it is mentioned in the authentic hadeeth that the Prophet ﷺ said one day during a gathering in which there were also women: ‘Whoever drags his garment out of pride, Allaah عز وجل will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.’ One of the women said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, then our feet will be exposed.’ He ﷺ said: ‘let the women lengthen (their garments) by a hand-span.’ She said: ‘Then a wind will come and uncover (their feet).’ He ﷺ said: ‘let them add another hand-span, i.e. (a total of) one cubit, and not go beyond that.’[3] [4]
In this manner, the jilbaab of the Muslim woman – at the time of the revelation of the above-mentioned verse: {to draw their outer garments (jilbaabs) close upon themselves} – used to cover the feet since the socks that are widespread nowadays among both women and men were not widespread at that time. The woman used to cover her shins and feet with the long jilbaab that resembles the abaa.ah. Therefore it is not permissible for a Muslim woman to uncover her feet while she is on the street, and it is even more impermissible for her to pray with her feet uncovered.”[1] Surat un-Noor 24:31
[2] Surat ul-Ahzaab 33:59

The Ruling on Asking a Student of Knowledge Due to the Absence of Scholars – Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan
Questioner:
Is it permissible to ask a student of knowledge due to the absence of a scholar in the country that I reside?
Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān:
Yes, fear Allāh ﷻ as much as you are able. Ask the best students of knowledge that you can find [who are] pious and upright. This is in regards to general issues, but as for major issues, divorce and so on, then not every person is asked in regards to such matters. [These issues must be] referred to religious courts or the Committee of Major Scholars.
