🌀✨A memoriser of the Qur'an✨🌀

“A memoriser of the Qur'an should be known for
🔹his long night prayers when people are asleep,
🔹his fasting when people are eating,
🔹his saddness when people are happy,
🔹his silence when people are talking nonsense, and
🔹his humbleness when people are not.
🔹He should be wise, gentle and not talk to much:
🔹he should not be rude, negligent, clamorous, nor hot tempered. “

-Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ud Radhi-Allahu Anhu
[Ibn Al Jawzee, Sifaat As-Safwa: 1/413]

🔥 Do not use your intellect to judge the Deen!

Shaikh Muqbil Ibn Haadee al-Waadi`ee رحمه الله said:

❝If having a (sound) intellect was sufficient, Allaah would not have sent the Messengers nor revealed the Books.❞

العقل، هل يكفي؟

" لو كان العقل كافيا ؛

Reciting the Quran Makes your affairs easy

Prophet Muḥammad Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said:
“Beware of the supplication of an oppressed person, EVEN if it is from a Kāfir (disbeliever), for indeed there is NO barrier between it and Allāh 'Azza Wa Jall.”
● [مختصر صحيح الجامع الصغير ٢٦٨٢ ، حسنه الألباني]
Translated By: Sameeullaah Sameeullaah (Aboo Marayam )

Sharhu Sunnah : Lesson 09 : Point 06
Shaykh Fawzan | Dawud Burbank [Audio|English]

The author Imam Barbahaaree rahimahullaah said,

“And beware of small matters that have been newly introduced, because small innovations grow, until they become large. This is what happened with every innovation introduced into this nation. Initially it was something small, having resemblance to the Truth; so those who entered into it were misled by this. Then they were unable to depart from it; so it grew large and it became the religion which they followed. So the person diverged from the Straight Path and exited from Islaam.”

BILAL BIN SA'D:

When you see a MAN who is STUBBORN, ARGUMENTATIVE and PROUD of his opinion, then he is at LOSS.

[ابن بشران في فوائده ٤٤]

THE PROPHET صلى الله عليه وسلم SAID:

“This WORLD is CURSED, as is EVERYTHING in it, EXCEPT for remembrance of Allaah (DHIKR) and what he likes (righteous DEEDS etc), and a SCHOLAR or a STUDENT.” 

[AL-TIRMIDHI 2322]

🔘 CLASSED as HASAN by TIRMIDHI, IBN AL-QAYYIM & AL-ALBAANI]

IBN TAYMIYYAH:

“The DISTINGUISHING characteristic between the BELIEVER and the HYPOCRITE is SINCERITY.”

[IBN TAYMIYYAHS FATAAWA v. 20, p. 75]

Speculative speech (kalaam) about Allaah, the Most High, is an innovation and misguidance

Sharhu Sunnah : Lesson 13 : Point 11
Shaykh Fawzan | Dawud Burbank [Audio|English]

The author Imam Barbahaaree rahimahullaah said,

And know, may Allaah have mercy upon you, that speculative speech, kalaam, about the Lord, the Most High, is a newly introduced matter and it is an innovation and misguidance. Nothing is to be said about the Lord except what He, the Mighty and Majestic, described Himself with in the Qur·aan and what the Messenger sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam explained to his Companions. So He, the Majestic in Renown, is One.

There is nothing like Him; and He is The All Hearing The All Seeing. (Sooratush-Shooraa (42), aayah 11)

Our Lord is the First without any beginning, and the Last without any end. He knows whatever is secret and whatever is most hidden. He has ascended over His Throne, and His Knowledge is in every place. And no place is free of His Knowledge.

Nabii SULEIMAN عليه السلام asked Malak Al Mawt (Angel of DEATH) عليه السلام ; "Why do i NOT see you treat humanity RIGHTEOUSLY? You TAKE one man's soul while you LEAVE the other."

He ANSWERED; "I've only been given SCROLL and books with NAMES in them."

[KITĀB DHIKR AL MAWT WA MAA BA'DAHU, PAGE 51 by IMĀM AL GHAZAALI رحمه الله]

QUESTION: I Wanted to ask about the secret behind number 7. Suratul FATIHA has 7 verses, SAMAWAAT is 7, ARDH is 7. Could there be some wisdom behind it as to why Allah choose 7?

ANSWER: Undoubtedly the Qur’aan is miraculous, and there are many facets to its miraculous nature, such as linguistic, legislative, and so on.

Its challenge to mankind and the jinn to produce something similar to it still stands.

ALLAAH says “Say: If the mankind and the jinn were together to produce the like of this QUR’AAN, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they helped one another” [AL-ISRA’ 17:88].

IBN AL-QAYYIM discussed the number 7 in his book Zaad al-Ma’aad fi Huda Khayr al-‘Ibaad (4/90) when he discussed the hadeeth in al-Saheehayn: “The one who eats seven dates of al-‘Aaliyah in the morning will not be harmed that day by poison or witchcraft.”

He said: As for specifying the NUMBER SEVEN, it has to do with the creation and sahr’i commands of Allaah. Allaah created seven heavens, seven earths and seven days, and man’s creation is completed in seven stages; Allaah has prescribed that His slaves should walk around the Ka’bah seven times (tawaaf) and go back and forth between Safa and Marwah seven times (saa’i), and stone the jamaraat with seven pebbles each, and the takbeeraat of Eid are seven in the first rak’ah.

The PROPHET ﷺ said: “Instruct your children to pray when they are seven.” When the boy reaches the age of seven he should be given the choice between his parents according to one report, and according to another report, his father has more right to him than his mother; according to a third report his mother has more right to him. When he was sick, the PROPHET ﷺ ordered that water from seven skins be poured on him. Allaah sent the wind against the people of ‘Aad for seven days. The PROPHET ﷺ asked Allaah to help him by sending upon his people seven (years) like the seven years of Yoosuf – i.e., seven years of famine. Allaah likened the reward of one who gives charity to a grain that produces seven ears, in each of which are one hundred grains.

The number of ears of grain seen by the companion of YOOSUF (in the dream) was seven, the number of years for which they were cultivated was seven, and (the reward for charity) is multiplied seven hundred fold or more. Seventy thousand of this ummah will be admitted to Paradise without being brought to account.

Then IBN AL-QAYYIM commented: Undoubtedly this number has some special qualities that are not shared by other numbers. … Allaah knows best about His wisdom, laws and decree in singling out this number. End quote.

Based on this, the correct view is to REFRAIN from indulging in DISCUSSION of the reason why this number is singled out for mention, except on the basis of clear, sound evidence.

Either memorize these principles, or save it on your smartphones or make a note on your Facebook account. Many people are unaware of them and hence fall into Bidah. In the past few days, different people have come with the same argument, "isn't using Facebook a Bidah?"

To proceed...

Whenever the topic of Bidah comes up, to counter the argument, many come up with questions like:

"Did the Prophet ﷺ travel in a ship?

Did the Salaf travel in cars and planes?

Prove from the Sunnah that it is permissible to eat fried chicken?"

One has to understand that vehicles, planes, and ships are used only as a means to reach the destination, they are not part of Ibaadah in themselves.

When we talk about Bidah, we are referring to innovations in the Deen only. We are not referring to innovations in Science and Technology.

Anyways, to get to the point, if the people would commit to memory these two principles, they would protect their Deen and save themselves from doubts and confusion.

The First Principle:
In the matters of Ibaadah (Worship), everything is Haraam/not allowed unless proven from the Qur’aan and Sunnah.

And the evidence for this is the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: ❝whosoever does an action which we have not commanded then it will be rejected.❞ [Saheeh Muslim]

And also: ❝whosoever introduces into this religion of ours that which is not part of it then it must be rejected.❞ [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (2697) and Saheeh Muslim]

And there are many more Ahaadeeth.

The Second Principle:
And in the matters of customs (food, clothing etc.), everything is allowed unless prohibited in the Qur’aan and Sunnah.

And the evidence for this is the saying of Allaah تعالى :

{Say: "Who has forbidden the adornment of Allaah which He has produced for His servants and the good [lawful] things of provision?"} [Surah al-A`raaf]

And Allaah is the One who Grants success.

🍃The Categories of People Regarding Completion of The Qur'ān

"And the miskīn, the true miskīn, is the one who wasted his life learning what he does not practice, thus he looses the pleasures of the Dunyā and the goodness of the Ākhirah. (In addition to) Coming forth bankrupt (on the Day of Judgment) with strong evidences against himself.
