⚠️ *The First Deception Of
Iblees* ⚠️


🎓Ibn al-Jawzi [D. 597 A.H.] [رحمه الله] said:

«اعلم أن أول تلبيس إبليس على الناس صدُّهم عن العلم، لأن العلم نور، فإذا أطفأ مصابيحهم خبّطهم في الظلام كيف شاء»

❝Know that the first deception of Iblees upon the people was to *restrain and prevent them from knowledge,* because knowledge is Noor [Light],

so if Iblees extinguishes their lanterns then he causes them to wander around in the dark however he wants.❞

📚Talbees Iblees, (1/389)

Imām al-Shāfiʿī (d.204H) – raḥimahullāh– said:

"Indeed, al-Qadar (pre-destination); both good and evil consequences are from Allāh – the Mighty and Majestic. Indeed, the Punishment of the Grave is a true fact, the Resurrection is a true fact, the Accountability is a true fact, Paradise and Hellfire are true facts. Whatever else is related in the Sunnah and so mentioned by the scholars, and their followers throughout the lands of the Muslims is also true."

Dawah without proper Aqeedah is Flop and failure.

We need to Fear Allah, openly exposing yourselves. Why makes us a witness to your sins?

The most hated speech to Allaah is when a man says to another man, ‘Fear Allaah!’ and he replies, ‘Worry about your own self!’ “

It was reported by Al-Asbahaanee in At-Targheeb (739), and Al-Albaanee authenticated it in Silsilatul-Ahaadeethis-Saheehah (2598).

Attempting to Safeguard Oneself from Showing Off (Ar-Riyaa) - Al-Uthaymīn

There are those who abandon acts of obedience [due to] fear of riyaa [i.e. showing off in acts of worship].

This [occurs] because Shaytān plays about with a person and beautifies for him [or her] the abandonment of acts of obedience out of fearing riyaa; rather you should perform acts of obedience, but there should not be -in your heart- [a desire] to show off.

Al-Qawl al-Mufīd fī Sharh Kitāb at-Tawhīd by Shaykh Uthaymīn, Vol.1, Pg.92

Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal said:

“Intend good. As long as you intend good, you’ll always be in a state of good.”

[اداب الشرعة ١/١٠٢]

Here is a sample of what I found. Beautiful reminder and writing. Alhamdulillah.

“The difference between sincere advising and shaming” by Ibn Rajab

“And from this is that one would tell a man something that he disliked to his face, and if that was with the purpose of sincerely advising him, then that is good. And one of the Salaf said to his brother, “Do not advise me until you can say something to my face which I dislike.”

Then if one of his brothers informs him of a short-coming in order for him to avoid it, then that is good for the one who was informed of one of his short-comings so that he can be wary of it, if it served as a warning for him. And if that [advising] was with the purpose of rebuking him for his sin, then that is distasteful and blameworthy.

And it was said to one of the salaf, “Would you like for someone to inform you of your short-comings?” So he replied, “If he wanted to reprimand me, then no.”

So reprimanding and shaming for sins is blameworthy. And the Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited one to blame a slave-woman who commits zinaa (illegal sexual intercourse) with simultaneously commanding him to whip her. So she would be lashed according to the hadd (prescribed punishment) and not shamed for the sin nor reprimanded for it. [see al-Bukhari #2152 and Muslim #1703]”

Narrated ‘Ubada bin As-Samit: The Prophet salahu ‘aleihi wa sallam said

“Whoever gets up at night and says: –

‘La ilaha il-lallah Wahdahu la Sharika lahu Lahu-l-mulk, waLahu-l-hamd wahuwa ‘ala kullishai’in Qadir. Alhamdu lil-lahi wa subhanal-lahi wa la-ilaha il-lal-lah wa-l-lahu akbar wa la hawla Wala Quwata il-la-bil-lah.’

And then says: — Allahumma, Ighfirli (O Allah! Forgive me), or invokes (Allah), he will be responded to and if he performs ablution (and prays), his prayer will be accepted."

[Bukhari Volume 2, Book 21, Number 253]

✒ Do Not Abandon Your Mother

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : الزمها - يعني الوالدة - فإن الجنة تحت أقدامها

The Messenger of Allāh Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said:

“Stick with her (meaning: your mother) for indeed Paradise is BENEATH HER FEET.”

And whoever was unable
To do them all, let him settle with whatever he wants even if it was one"

🌹Shaykh Fawāz al-Madkhalī, may Allāh protect him, said: A Point of Benefit : A Prophetic [Practice] That Has Been Abandoned, for Supplications to Be Answered.

🌹From Anas ibn Mālik, may Allāh be pleased with him, [who] said:

Um Sulaym came to the Prophet (salAllaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) and said, "O Messenger of Allāh, teach me some words, I can ask [Allāh] with."
He said: Proclaim Allāh's great distance, Mighty is He and Majestic, from any kind of imperfection by saying:
🍀 "SUBHANALLAH" 10 times;
Glorify Him with praise by saying:
🍀 "ALHAMDULILLAH" 10 times;
And extol His greatness above all things by saying:
🍀 "ALLAHU AKBAR" 10 times.
Then after that, ask for what you need, for He [will] certainly then say: "Indeed, I have done it; indeed, I have done it."

"An unlearned [individual] who answers questions cannot only say 'it is allowed' or 'it is not allowed', rather he must mention the scholar who says it."

Only the fools rush in where the wise fear to tread:

Abu Shihaab said: I heard Abu Hasseen saying:

❝ One of them (i.e. the later generation) (so easily) gives a Fatwa about an issue; and were the same (issue) presented to Umar رضي الله عنه, he would have gathered (and consulted) the participants (in the battle) of Badr (before giving the verdict in this regards)."

📵THE CALAMITIES OF THE SMARTPHONES IN THE MASAAJID📵
By Shaikh Abdur-Razzaq al-Badr حفظه الله

🎓The Shaykh حفظه الله said:

Actions or statements should not be done in the Masaajid except for that which the Masjid was built for. The Masaajid were built for Prayer, Quran, for the remembrance of Allah, gratitude, praising Allah, knowledge, studying, and obtaining understanding. As for speech about the worldly life, relaxation through jokes and amusement, or with the great calamity which has emerged in this time: smart phone devices; [then], in them are the calamities of the world.

You find some people in the Masaajid [using cellphones], and some are in ‘Itikaaf. Which type of ‘Itikaaf is this? Some are in ‘Itikaaf, but in reality they are in a state of ‘Itikaaf on their cellphone. He is not in ‘Itikaaf for his Lord and for the remembrance of his Lord. He is only in ‘Itikaaf on his cellphone...

❗️Even some of them, as soon as they make the second Tasleem, put their hand in their pocket and pull out their device. This indicates that even in his obligatory prayer, he is preoccupied with what is on his device. As if his prayer obstructed him and he completes it in order to return to his device so as to continue with the amusement which he was preoccupied with...

❗️From the painful, saddening, and unfortunate affairs is the music which has increased and is heard in the Masaajid. Who would believe twenty years ago that music would be heard in the Masaajid today. At the time time for Prayer, not a Ruku’ or Sujood or any position from the positions of the prayer passes except you hear music. A great calamity.

Therefore, it is necessary upon a person as soon as he enters the door of the Masjid to know the sanctity of the house of Allah, the rights of the congregants, and know the sanctity of the place which he entered. So when he enters the door of the Masjid, it is necessary that he turn his cellphone to silent or turn it off altogether. If he leaves it outside the Masjid [i.e. somewhere else], then that is more deserving. So he enters the Masjid to pray, to remember Allah, and not preoccupy himself and the congregants with these sounds and distractions. ...All of these are calamities which have entered upon us in the Masaajid and which the people are afflicted with. It disrupts the worship and affects the people. It is not allowed in the Masjid to raise your voice over the voice of your brother when reciting the Quran in order to not mix up his recitation [See: Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawood no. 1332] . So how about these calamities nowadays which have been brought to the Masaajid and have brought calamities and great evil?

We ask Allah to rectify us all. Aameen!

--- Dua is a kind of compensation ---

The sincere people do not ask from the one who they do good to any praise or even Dua’a. Because Dua’a is a kind of compensation and favour.

Evidence that shows Dua’a is a kind of compensation.


The narration quoted by the Prophet (Salla Allaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), “ Whoever does good deeds by you, then compensate him. If you do not find anything to give him in compensation, then supplicate for him until you think that you have compensated him. [Abu Dawood and An-Nasa’i]

So when they are compensated with Dua’a, they return it with Dua’a like it, in order to get the full reward from Allah.


Narrated by Aisha (Radia Allaahu ‘anha), “The meat of a sheep was given as a gift to the Prophet (Salla Allaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). He said, “Distribute it”. When the servant came back, Aisha asked him, “What did they say to you?” He replied, “They said BaarakAllahu feekum.” Aisha answered “Wafeehum BaraakAllah (And may Allah bless them too).

We reply to them, what they say to us, so the full reward will be remained for us. [An-Nasa’I and authenticated by al-Albani].

Out of complete sincerity of Aisha (Radia Allaahu ‘anha), she was not waiting for anything in return, not even their Dua’a.

This is affirmed in Allah’s Book in Surat al-Insan 76:8-9:

وَيُطْعِمُونَ الطَّعَامَ عَلَى حُبِّهِ مِسْكِينًا وَيَتِيمًا وَأَسِيرًا

إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ لا نُرِيدُ مِنْكُمْ جَزَاءً وَلا شُكُورًا


And they give good in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan and the captive.

(Saying): “We feed you only for the Countenance of Allah. We wish not from you reward or gratitude”.

During the Last Days Sudden Death will Increase An important reminder from Shaykh Salih al fawzaan حفظه الله

Shaykh Fawzan: Pay attention to this. During the last days sudden death will increase.
You are healthy, strong, and youthful, and then you die suddenly; either in a car accident, or by heart failure, or by any unexpected reason. And how often does this occur! And you witness this and hear about this.

Thus it is upon us to increase in repentance and seeking forgiveness. And we must not forget about the abode of the hereafter. We must not forget about death. We must not forget about the reckoning. Then on the Day of Judgment there will be scales; scales to weigh the deeds and actions.

Then, those whose scales are heavy (with good deeds), - these, they are the successful.


And those whose scales are light (their sins outweigh their good deeds), they are those who lose their souls, in the Hell-fire will they abide.1
They are those who lose their souls (or themselves). They didn’t lose their wealth, rather they lost their souls.
Their recompense will be the Hell-fire. Will they remain in the Hell-fire for one day, two days? No. They will remain there forever. They will remain there for eternity.
There is no Might or Power except with Allah.
