The Meaning of al-Ihsaan (Being Good to Someone)
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Shaykh al-Allaamah Abdul Azeez bin Abdullaah bin Baaz Rahimahullaah
Translated by Abbas Abu Yahya
The Question:
What is the meaning of having al-Ihsaan (being good to someone) mentioned in the hadeeth?
The Answer:
Al-Ihsaan to daughters and similar to them is to raise them with the upbringing of Islaam, to educate them and bring them up on the truth so they are steadfast in their modesty and keep themselves far away from what Allaah has made Haraam such as displaying themselves and other things.
Similar is the upbringing of sisters, sons and other forms of al-Ihsaan where they are all raised on obedience to Allaah and His Messenger, on refraining from what Allaah has made Haraam and being upright on the truth of Allaah –Subhanahu wa Ta’ala.
With this, it should be known that the intent of al-Ihsaan is not merely feeding, giving drink and clothing them, rather the intent of al-Ihsaan to them is broader, including actions of the Deen and the Duniya.

☆A WORTHWHILE SPENDING☆
الْمَالُ تذهبه النَّفَقَات، وَالْعِلْمُ يُزَكُّوْ عَلَى النَّفَقَةِ

The ruling on congratulating non-Muslim's on their religious festivals?
Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
"Congratulating the kuffaar on the rituals that belong only to them is haraam by consensus, as is congratulating them on their festivals and fasts by saying ‘A happy festival to you’ or ‘May you enjoy your festival,’ and so on. If the one who says this has been saved from kufr, it is still forbidden. It is like congratulating someone for prostrating to the cross, or even worse than that. It is as great a sin as congratulating someone for drinking wine, or murdering someone, or having illicit sexual relations, and so on. Many of those who have no respect for their religion fall into this error; they do not realise the offensiveness of their actions. Whoever congratulates a person for his disobedience or bid’ah or kufr exposes himself to the wrath and anger of Allah".
📚Ahkām Ahl Al-Dhimmāh. (1/205)
If merely congratulating the people of disbelief on their festivals exposes you to the the wrath and anger of Allah, then what's the torment for those who actively participate in their celebrations?!!

“Understand that life has occasions. One time it is poverty, and another time it is wealth. Once it is honour, and another it is humiliation. Happy is he is who remains grounded in each situation.”

Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:
Imitating the Sahaabah and the Taabi’een sharpens one’s intellect, Deen and also one’s character.

If you read (the Qur'an) with contemplation, even if over a (single) ayah, it is a key to healing your heart. Even if repeated a hundred times and for the (whole) night. Reading an ayah with contemplation and understanding is better than reading to completion without tadabbur and understanding. It is more beneficial for the heart and ensures gain in faith, and in tasting sweetness of the Qur'an.

Explanation Of The Supplication For The Sick & Afflicted
By Shaykh AbduRazzaq ibn AbdulMuhsin al-Abbaad
The author highlights in this extremely beneficial book a number of ways, derived from the texts of the Quran and the authentic Sunnah, to treat the evil eye, magic, depression anxiety, pain, sickness and other common ailments. This should be of no surprise tot the muslims as the Prophet -صلى الله عليه وسلم- said: ‘Allah has not sent down an illness, except that he also sent down its cure.’ Bukhari
Ibn al-Qayyim -رحمه الله- said:
‘The intent is to speak regarding these two soorahs [al-Falaq and an-Naas] and to clarify the greatness of their benefit and the extreme need for them; rather, the necessity of them, and the fact that no one at all can do without them. Similarly, [to clarify] the fact that they have a great effect, specifically on the repelling of magic, the evil eye and the other manifestations of evils. And [to clarify] the fact that the servant’s need for seeking refuge with these two soorahs is greater than his need for air, food, drink, and clothing.’. (Badaai’ al-fawaaid by ibn al-Qayyim 199/2)
Ibn al-Qayyim -رحمه الله- said:
‘This remedy had an effect upon this disease and it removed it to the point that it was as if it never existed. It is the easiest and most convenient [form of] treatment. If the slave were to properly treat the ailment with al-faatiha, he would see an amazing effect in terms of [recovery] and healing.
I had stayed in Makkah for a period of time and some illness had afflicted me. I was not able to find a doctor or any medicine. So i would treat myself with al-faatiha, and i saw that it has an amazing effect. I would mention that to those who had complained of pain and many of them were healed quickly (by way of it).’ (al-jawaab al-kaafee p.5)

When a person realizes that he has been tested, he should repent to Allaah and seek his forgiveness, as was done by Prophet Dawood عليه السلام:
وَظَنَّ دَاوُودُ أَنَّمَا فَتَنَّاهُ فَاسْتَغْفَرَ رَبَّهُ وَخَرَّ رَاكِعًا وَأَنَابَ
{And Dawud became certain that We had tried him and he sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down into prostration and turned (to Allah) in repentance}
[Surah Saad (38): 24]

✒What is the meaning and forms of TAQLID along with the legal ruling on each type?
All Praise is due to Allah Alone and peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions. To commence:
A- Scholars of Usul-ul-Fiqh (principles of Islamic jurisprudence) have many definitions of Taqlid (following the views of a specific jurist or School of Jurisprudence). Some scholars defined Taqlid as following a person's religious view without knowing the evidence upon which it is based. Some other scholars said that Taqlid means the acceptance of a person's religious view with no evidence. Abu Al-Ma`aly Al-Juwayny defined Taqlid as following a person's view without evidence or knowledge. All these definitions are similar to each other. Scholars of Usul-ul-Fiqh debated the issue according to their logical discussions. But here we wish to clarify the meaning of Taqlid.
B- As regard to the kinds of Taqlid and the ruling on each category, it is as follows:

♦ Two Types of Sabr
Allah says in surah al-Baqarah:
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ
O you who believe! Seek help in patience and al-Salaah. Truly! Allah is with al-Sabiroon (the patient ones). [2:153]
Imam ibn Kathir wrote the following under his tafsir of this ayah:
والصبر صبران ، فصبر على ترك المحارم والمآثم ، وصبر على فعل الطاعات والقربات . والثاني أكثر ثوابا لأنه المقصود . كما قال عبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم : الصبر في بابين ، الصبر لله بما أحب ، وإن ثقل على الأنفس والأبدان ، والصبر لله عما كره وإن نازعت إليه الأهواء . فمن كان هكذا ، فهو من الصابرين الذين يسلم عليهم ، إن شاء الله .ـ
Al-Sabr (patience) is of two types: sabr in leaving off the forbidden acts and sins, and sabr in performing the acts of obedience and things which draw one nearer to Allah. And the second of these is greater in reward because that is the desired objective.
This is like what ‘Abdur-Rahman ibn Zaid ibn Aslam said: Sabr is of two types: Sabr for the sake of Allah in what He loves – even if it is heavy on oneself and one’s body -, and sabr for the sake of Allah against what He dislikes – even if your desires draw you towards it.
So whoever is like this, then he is one of the sabiroon upon whom Allah has placed His peace, inshaAllaah.
