✨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.

✏️ Translated by _Abū Ḥakīm Bilāl Davis (حفظه الله)_
📌 Before the reader is a concise yet highly beneficial article wherein al-Shaykh Muḥammad Ibn Ṣāliḥ al-'Uthaymīn (رحمه الله) briefly explains the three categories in which cursing time can fall into.

📃 _An excerpt taken from the article:_
"That one merely intends to inform (of something occurring on that day) without blaming time, such as saying 'we are exhausted from the severe heat of this day or its cold' or its like, since one’s actions are by intentions and this is sound to be used merely to inform."

Imam Ibn al-Qayyim: (May Allāh have mercy on him)
Qurʾān: Quality over Quantity
“If the people knew the sweetness, and benefits in pondering over the Qurʾān when reading it, they would have kept themselves busy with nothing else but reading Qurʾān.
For reading and pondering over one verse is better than a ḵẖatma (completion of the whole Qurʾān) without contemplation nor understanding. It's also more beneficial to the heart, attains Īmān and makes one taste the sweetness of the Qurʾān.”

🎥Shaykh Ṣāliḥ Al-Fawzān’s -حفظه الله تعالى- Heartfelt & Powerful Advice as Ramaḍān approaches its Conclusion
Forwarded from SHAYKH IBN HIZAAM (English)
بســـم اللــه الرحــمــن الـرحـــيــم
Our Shaykh, Muhammad Ibn Hizaam- may Allaah preserve him - was asked the following question:
📩 Question:
It has become widespread in Russia that people respond to questions by saying, "Shaytaan knows the answer". So what is the ruling of this statement, as well as the one who frequently replies with this response?
📝Answer :
We seek refuge with Allaah!
This statement is absolutely false. In fact, it can lead one to disbelief if it's cited concerning obscure matters of the unseen. It is incumbent upon a Muslim to attribute all knowledge of the unseen to Allaah alone -Subhanahu wa Ta'aala-.
The Shaytaan only knows what he has seen or heard, he does not have knowledge of the unseen. Knowledge of the unseen is exclusive to our lord -Jala wa 'Aalaa- (as Allaah said):
(قُل لَّا یَعۡلَمُ مَن فِی ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ ٱلۡغَیۡبَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُۚ وَمَا یَشۡعُرُونَ أَیَّانَ یُبۡعَثُونَ)
'Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “None in the heavens and the earth has knowledge of the unseen except Allaah. Nor do they know when they will be resurrected.' [Surat An-Naml 65]
* عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ فَلَا يُظْهِرُ عَلَىٰ غَيْبِهِ أَحَدًا}
{إِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضَىٰ مِن رَّسُولٍ
"˹He (alone) is the˺ Knower of the unseen, disclosing none of it to anyone. Except messengers of His choice."
[Surat Al-Jinn 26 - 27]
Allah -'Aza wa Jala- said after the death of Sulaymaan -alayhe salaatul wa salaam-
فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَوْتِهِ إِلَّا دَابَّةُ الْأَرْضِ تَأْكُلُ مِنسَأَتَهُ ۖ فَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ أَن لَّوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوا فِي الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ
Then when We decreed death for him [Sulaiman (Solomon)], nothing informed them (jinns) of his death except a little worm of the earth, which kept (slowly) gnawing away at his Minsa'ah, so when he fell down, the jinns saw clearly that if they had known the unseen, they would not have stayed in the humiliating torment.
[Surat Saba' 14]
Minsa'ah refers to his stick.
So this statement is false and upon clear misguidance, and it may cause a person to fall into Kufr (disbelief) if it's cited in reference to matters specific to Allaah alone; this falls into disbelief in Allaah -Jala wa 'Alaa-

Zakāh purifies and increases:
1. The giver
2. The receiver
3. The wealth itself
It is a pillar of Islam.
Zakāh is a means for divine blessings to descend upon one’s wealth.
Abandoning it out of stinginess is a major sin.

On the authority of Ibn Umar radiAllahu anhu who said:
❝A man came to the Prophet [ﷺ] said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah! Which of the people are the most beloved to Allaah and which of the actions are most beloved to Allaah?’
The Messenger of Allaah [ﷺ] said: ‘The most beloved of the people to Allaah are the most beneficial for the people. The most beloved of actions to Allaah [عز و جل] are to cause happiness to reach a Muslim, to relieve him from a hardship, to settle a debt for a Muslim or to repel hunger from him. For me to walk with a brother in order to assist him is more beloved to me than to make ‘Itikaf in this Masjid [Masjid al-Madeenah] for a month.
Whoever holds back his anger then Allaah hides his mistakes. Whoever suppresses his anger – even though he is not scared to show it, but withholds due to the truth – Allaah fills his heart with hope on the day of Judgement.
Whoever walks with his brother to assist him with a need until he has helped him completely, then Allaah plants his feet firmly on the day people will not stand firmly. Indeed bad behaviour spoils good actions, just as vinegar spoils honey.’❞
