Imām ibn Qayyim [رحمه الله] said:

“The path always starts with trials and tests, then comes the period of patience and reliance [upon Allāh], and the end is enlightenment, guidance and victory.”

[Shifā al-Alīl, p.247]

Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah - may Allāh have mercy on him - :

❝Emulating the Ṣahābah and the Tābi'īn increases one's intellect, religiosity and noble mannerisms.❞

Today's Beautiful Hadith is About Charity

Abu Huraira RA reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: A man expressed his intention to give charity, so he came out with charity and placed it in the hand of an adulteress. In the morning, the people were talking and saying: charity was given to an adulteress last night. He (the giver of Sadaqa) said: 0 Allah, to Thee be the praise-to an adulteress.

He then again expressed his intention to give charity; so he went out with the charity and placed it in the hand of a rich person. In
the morning the people were talking and saying: Charity was given to a rich person. He (the giver of
charity) said: 0 Allah, to Thee be the praise-to a well-to-do person.

He then expressed his intention to give charity, so he went out with charity and placed it in the hand of a thief. In the morning, the
people were talking and saying: Charity was given to a thief.

So (one of the persons) said: 0 Allah, to
Thee be the praise (what a misfortune it is that charity has been given to) the adulteress, to a rich
person. to a thief!

There came (the angel to him) and he was told: Your charity has been accepted. As for the adulteress (the charity might become the means) whereby she might restrain herself from
fornication. The rich man might perhaps learn a lesson and spend from what Allah has given him,
and the thief might thereby refrain from committing theft.

The Worst of times...

“If you are in an era where speech is without action, and knowledge is without implementation in accordance with it. And this is approved of, then know that you are in the worst of times and among the worst of people.”

📚 قال #سفيان_بن_عيينة - رحمه الله - :

" إِذَا كُنْتَ فِي زَمَانٍ يُرْضَى فِيهِ بِالْقَوْلِ دُونَ الْفِعْلِ ، وَالْعِلْمِ دُونَ الْعَمَلِ ، فَاعْلَمْ بِأَنَّكَ فِي شَرِّ زَمَانٍ بَيْنَ شَرِّ النَّاسِ ".

❝ How...?

How did the Hanābilah and Ashā’irah unite and liberate Baytul Maqdis despite their differences?

How did the ‘Uthmānis govern the ummah for centuries while they’re Māturīdiyyah?

How did Taqiyyuddīn Ibn Taymiyyah lead the influentials of Damascus - not differentiating between them - when they met Qāzān and he interceded with him on releasing the Muslim and Christian prisoners?

How did many of the Ashā’irah scholars praise Taqiyyuddīn Ibn Taymiyyah while they differed with him?

How was Taqiyyuddīn Ibn Taymiyyah eager on uniting the Ashā’irah & Hanābilah?

The answer: the vastness of their knowledge, their impartiality and contemplating over the aims of the sharī’ah in uniting the ranks of the ummah.

So shall we not tread their way despite our differences, uniting to uplift our ummah again?!

It’s beautiful to listen to Qur’aan being recited. It’s from the Sunnah. RasulAllah (ﷺ) would want to listen to the Qur’an being read. Listening to the Qur’an is an IBAADAH. It’s a great way to try to do Hifdh. الحَمدُ لله

🤲 The Best Dua On Laylatul Qadr


«اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي»

Allaahumma Innaka Affuwwun, Tuhibbu Al Affwa, Fa’afu ‘Annee

O Allaah, indeed You pardon and You love pardoning so pardon me.

In another narration there is an extra word:

«اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ كَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي»

O Allaah, indeed You pardon [generously] and You love pardoning so pardon me.

An explanation of the status of an extra wording in the Dua’.

Shaykh Al-Albaani after researching this narration in detail says:

❝[Notice]: There occurs in ‘Sunnan Tirmidhi’ after the word 'pardon' an extra word: 'generously!' There is no origin for this word in any of the preceding sources mentioned, or in any other books from which this narration has been quoted. 

What is apparent is that this word has been added from some transcribers or publishers, since it is not in the Indian print of ‘Sunnan Tirmidhi’ which has the explanation of ‘Tuhfah Al-Ahwaadi’ by Mubarakfoori, or in any other book. What strengthens this point is that Nisa’ee in some of his narrations collected it from the same chain from which Tirmidhi collected it, and both of them from their Shaykh [Qutaybah Bin Saeed] from his chain without the extra word.❞

‎Narrated Ibn `Abbās [رضي الله عنه]:

‎❝The Prophet [ﷺ] said, ‘Look for the night of Qadr in the last ten nights of Ramadān; on the night when nine or seven or five nights remain out of the last ten nights of Ramadān [i.e., 21, 23, 25, 27, 29 respectively].❞

[Sahīh Bukhari, (No. 2021) | Translated By Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan]

Narrated `Aishah [رضي الله عنها]:

❝With the start of the last ten days of Ramadān, the Prophet [ﷺ] used to tighten his waist belt [i.e., work hard] and used to keep awake all the night and perform Salāt [prayer] and also used to keep his family awake for the Salāt [prayer].❞

📌 *Itikaaf of women : It is not done at home.*

🎓Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’ (6/480):

*It is not correct for a man or a woman to observe i'tikaaf anywhere except in the mosque.*

This is the view favoured by Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen in al-Sharh al-Mumti’, 6/513

Most of the people during our time stay awake at night during the nights of Ramadān not involved in what will rectify their religion or the worldly life; rather, they only spend the night in ''he said, she said,'' laughing, joking, and playing, and this is a tremendous loss!

✨Laylatul Qadr - A night better than 1000 Months ✨

PART 5️⃣

📌The meaning of Better than One Thousand Months: Tafsir al-Baghawi

➡️Imam al-Baghawi wrote the following in his commentary on this ayah:

In surah al-Qadr, Allah describes Laylah al-Qadr by saying:

‎لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ

Laylah al-Qadr is better than one thousand months [97:3]

Relaying from ibn ‘Abbaas, ‘Ataa’ said: The Messenger of Allah was told about a man from Banu Israa’eel who carried a sword on his shoulder in the path of Allah for one thousand months. So Allah’s Messenger was amazed by this and wished this for his ummah, saying, “O Lord, You made my ummah the shortest of nations in terms of lifespan and the least of them in terms of deeds?”

So then Allah gave him Laylah al-Qadr and said,
‎لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
“Laylah al-Qadr is better than one thousand months

in which that man from Banu Israa’eel carried a sword in the path of Allah. It is for you and your ummah until the Day of Resurrection.”

The mufassiroon have said that the meaning of “Laylah al-Qadr is better than one thousand months” is that righteous deeds done during Laylah al-Qadr are better than the deeds of one thousand months which do not contain Laylah al-Qadr.

O Allaah; You are The One Who pardons greatly; and You love to pardon; so pardon me.))[1]
