THE ORIGIN OF THE NAME RAFIDAH (Shias) AND THEIR CRITICISM FROM SALAAF
Imaam adh-Dhahabee said in his Siyaar A’laam an-Nubalaa (5/390):
قال عيسى بن يونس جاءت الرافضة زيدا فقالوا تبرأ من أبي بكر وعمر حتى
ننصرك قال بل أتولاهما قالوا إذا نرفضك فمن ثم قيل لهم الرافضة
Eesaa bin Yoonus said: The Raafidah came to Zayd ibn `Alee and said to him, “Free yourself from Abee Bakr and ‘Umar so that we can aid you.”He replied, “Rather I will give allegiance to them (i.e. Aboo Bakr and ‘Umar).” They said, “Then we reject you.” So then it was said to them, “ar-Raafidah” (the rejecters).”
Shaykh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah mentioned in his Majmoo’ al-Fataawa (4/435):
It was said to Imaam Ahmad: “Who is the Raafidhee?
He said
Those who insult Abaa Bakr and Umar .And by this they were named the Raafidah for they rejected Zayd bin ‘Alee when he gave allegiance to the two Khaleefah’s Abaa Bakr and ‘Umar so they rejected him because of their hatred for them. And the one who hates them (i.e. Aboo Bakr and ‘Umar is a Raafidhee.” And they were named as the Raafidhah because of their rejection of Abaa Bakr and ‘Umar رضي الله عنهما

The Death of Hussain ibn Alee & the Day of Aashooraa - Dr. Murtaza bin Baksh
Why do we fast on the 10th of Muharram? Know, may Allah have mercy upon you. It has no connection to the death of Hussain ibn Alee (radi Allahu anhumma) or the killings of Karbala. It has no connection to the mourning of the Rawafid (Shia).
The affair of the death of Hussain ibn Alee (radi Allahu anhumma) and Karbala took place in the year 61H and the last of the Sahabah died in 110H. In this, 50 year period were there no sahabah? Were there no Sahabah from Ahlul-Bayt (the family of the Prophet Muhammad)? Abdullah ibn 'Abbaas (radi Allahu anhumma) was alive as well as other Sahabah.
Did anyone one of them mourn or slap themselves, or tear their clothes to commemorate this occasion?
Know, that not one single narration of this practice was narrated from any one of these individuals.
Now, listen to this clip by Dr. Murtaza bin Baksh (hafidhahullah Ta'ala): https://goo.gl/gFFVjc

Rafa yadain: Raising the hands (رفع اليدين) during Salah.. —
—
Narrated by Abu Qilaba:
I saw Malik bin Huwairith saying Takbir and raising both his hands (on starting the prayers and raising his hands on bowing and also on raising his head after bowing. Malik bin Huwairith said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did the same."
[Sahih al-Bukhari 737] —

Narrated by Salim bin
[Sahih al-Bukhari 735] —

Imaam al-Bukhaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) wrote a separate book on this issue which he called Juz’ fi Raf’ al-Yadayn (Section on Raising the Hands), in which he proved that the hands should be raised at these two points on the prayer, and he strongly denounced those who go against that. He narrated that al-Hasan said: “The Companions of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to raise their hands during prayer when they bowed and when they stood up (from bowing).” Al-Bukhaari said, “Al-Hasan did not exclude any of the Sahaabah from that, and it was not proven that any one among the Sahaabah did not raise his hands.” [See al-Majmoo’ by al-Nawawi, 3/399-406.] —
—
Ibn al-Qayyim said: “Look at the practice at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and the Sahaabah after him. They used to raise their hands in prayer when doing rukoo’, and when standing up again. And in the time of the Sahaabah, if ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar saw someone not raising his hands in prayer, he would throw a stone at him. [I’laam al-Muwaqqi’een, 2/376] —
—
This raising of the hands is mutawaatir (reported by so many to so many that it is inconceivable that they could all have agreed on a lie). It is the opinion of the majority of scholars and some of the Hanafis. (Sifat Salaat al-Nabi (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) by al-Albaani, p. 136).

There are many Hadith regarding this, and they mutawatir (stronger than sahih and narrated by so many companions that it cannot be a lie)
Narrated Salim bin
Sahih Al-Bukhari (English) reference: Vol. 1, Book 12, Hadith 702
Narrated
I saw that whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood for the prayer, he used to raise both his hands up to the shoulders, and used to do the same on saying the Takbir for bowing and on raising his head from it and used to say, "Sami`a l-lahu liman hamidah". But he did not do that (i.e. raising his hands) in prostrations.
Sahih Al-Bukhari (English) reference: Vol. 1, Book 12, Hadith 703

...............
After the tashahud in the second rak'ah, when you stand up you raise the hands,
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that :
The Prophet (ﷺ) used to raise his hands when he began to pray, when he wanted to bow, when he raised his head from bowing, and when he stood up after the first two rak'ahs, he would raise his hands likewise, level with his shoulders.

A man is tried according to his religion. If he is firm in his religion (pious), then his trials will be more severe. If he is weak in his religion, then he is tried according to his strength in religion. The servant will continue to be tried until he is left walking upon the earth without any sin.”

#Love #Time #Management
Our Time WILL run out EVENTUALLY.
What do you spend it on?
Time is probably the most precious gift I present my friends with.
Not everyone deserves this precious gift from me.
Don't take for granted, the effort and time put in by the people who care for you, to help correct you, humble you, remind you, benefit you, reproach you, encourage you in good and discourage you from misguidance and corruption.

*The scholar, the ruler, and your brother*
It is reported that ‘Abdullāh b. Al-Mubārak – Allāh 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-Qurtubi said in his tafsir: In the book Nawaadir al-Usool, it is reported that Anas narrated that the Prophet said, *“If the entire dunya were to be in the hands of a man from among my ummah and then he were to say, ‘alhamdulillaah‘, that alhamdulillaah would be better for him than all of that.”*
al-Qurtubi and others commented, *“Meaning: his being inspired to say alhamdulillaah* is a greater blessing for him than the pleasures of *this worldly life because the reward of praising Allah does not perish while the pleasures of this life do not last.”*
Allah said:

Ashura, as making themselves thirsty, showing sadness, gathering and other heresies that are not legislated neither by Allah nor by His Prophet صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم and none of the Salaf (Predecessors) or one of Ahl-Al-Bayt (The Prophet’s صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّمFamily) or others… this was an affliction to the Muslims – that is to say, the murder of Al-Hussayn رضي الله عنه – and that should be dealt with like other calamities by saying the legal Istirjâ(5). Yet, some heretics innovated, during this day, acts that contradict what Allah عزَّ وجلَّ ordered to do when a calamity occurs. They added to that calumnies and denigration of the Companions who are innocent of killing Al-Hussayn رضي الله عنه and other things that Allah عزَّ وجلَّ and His Prophet صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم detest… As for the fact of considering days of calamities as days of bereavement, this does not belong to the Islamic religion but rather to the religion of the pre-Islamic period”,then Ibn Taymiya رحمه اللهsaid:

Ashura) on the basis of invented hadiths that have no valid origin like: the merit of taking a ritual bath in this day, to make up with kohl and shaking hands. All these things and others are innovated and hateful, but what is recommended is to fast during this day… apparently, as regards the invention of these hadiths, when chauvinism appeared between An-Nâssiba and Ar-Râfida, the former made the day of Ashura a day of bereavement, and the latter invented texts that require expending copiously and making of Ashura a holiday. However, these two ways are false”(6).
If we know that what was prescribed during this day is limited to fasting, it is not allowed to answer the invitation of someone who considers it a day of bereavement, nor someone who considers it a holiday, because it is not allowed to alter the sharia of Allah عزَّ وجلَّ for the sake of someone or rectify and add something to it.

(3) Ar-Râfida: a sect belonging to the large sect of Shiites, they took the oath of allegiance to Zayd Ibn Ali, and asked him to renounce the two Sheikhs (Abu Bakr and Umar رضي الله عنهما), so he disagreed with them, then they left and refused him, that is to say: they boycotted him and gave up their oath of allegiance. Among their principles: Al-‘Imâma (The imamship of twelve members of the lineage of the Prophet صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم), Al-Isma (The infallibility of the twelve imams), Al-Mahdiyya (They believe in a person of the lineage of the Prophet صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم whose name is Muhammad Ibn Al-Hassan Al-Askari who will come back at the end of the world), At-Taqiyya (To show the contrary of what one believes), in addition to insulting the Companions and other principles.
(4) An-Nâssiba: those who detest Ali رضي الله عنه and his companions. See: “MajmûAl-Fatâwa” (25/301).(5) Saying: “Inna Lillâh Wa Inna Ilayhi Râji`ûn” (Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return).
