Earthquakes: A Sign of Allāh’s Anger

“So We punished each (of them) for his sins...”
[29:40]

“And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned.”
[42:30]

“When there had been an earthquake, some of the Salaf said:
“Your Lord is warning you.”

When Madīnah was struck by an earthquake, ‘Umar Ibn al-Khattāb (رضي الله عنه) addressed the people and said:
“If there is another earthquake, I will not stay here with you.””

— Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه لله)


This is a clear warning to the people of Afghanistan and their Murtad Government. Your clear Kufr and Shirk are indeed grievous crimes whose punishment you will have to taste in both Dunya and Akhirah. So fear Allāh and repent!

Al-Isra' 17:45
وَإِذَا قَرَأۡتَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ جَعَلۡنَا بَيۡنَكَ وَبَيۡنَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ حِجَابًا مَّسۡتُورًا

And when you (Muhammad SAW) recite the Quran, We put between you and those who believe not in the Hereafter, an invisible veil (or screen their hearts, so they hear or understand it not).

ކަލޭގެފާނު قرآن ކިޔަވައިވިދާޅުވާހިނދު، ކަލޭގެފާނާއި، آخرة ދުވަހަށް إيمان ނުވާމީހުންނާ ދެމެދު ނިވައިކުރަނިވި ފަރުދާއެއް، ތިމަންރަސްކަލާނގެ ލެއްވީމެވެ.

وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ سَدًّا وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ سَدًّا فَأَغۡشَيۡنَٰهُمۡ فَهُمۡ لَا يُبۡصِرُونَ

And We have put a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and We have covered them up, so that they cannot see.

އަދި ތިމަންރަސްކަލާނގެ އެއުރެންގެ ކުރިމަތިން ހުރަހަކާއި، އެއުރެންގެ ފުރަގަހުން ހުރަހެއް ލެއްވީމެވެ. އަދި ތިމަންރަސްކަލާނގެ އެއުރެންގެ ލޯތަކުގައި ފަރުދާއެއް ލެއްވީމެވެ. ދެން އެއުރެންނަކަށް ނުފެންނާނެތެވެ.

Glad Tidings to These Special People

Glad tidings to these special people,

The few of the few,

The diamonds in the rough,

Those who fearlessly stand for the truth, forbid evil and advise & correct others,

They remain firm and patient when criticized, mocked, and ridiculed by the ignorant & sinful,

The harm and evil of the people does not shake them in the least,

And if it does, they drink the drink of patience,

And they only complain to their Lord,

They continue upon this path of the Messengers,

Holding tightly to the Qur’ān and Sunnah,

Swallowing the pain, wiping the tears and ignoring the blame of the blamers,

Glad tidings to you, O chosen ones.

May Allāh keep you steadfast
آمين

Worship Allah and join none with Him in worship, and do good to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, Al-Masakin (the poor), the neighbour who is near of kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (you meet), and those (slaves) whom your right hands possess. Verily, Allah does not like such as are proud and boastful;

HATING THE MURJI’A?

Muhammad Ibn Ibrāhīm Abu Abdul-Rahmān Al-Būshanji said: I heard Ahmad (Imām Ahmad) say:

Seek nearness to Allah The Most High, by hating the people of Irjā; for it is one of dearest actions to us (Ahlul Sunnah).

THE SALAH BEHIND THE MURJI’A | 1

We were informed by Abu Bakr Al-Marwūtdhī, Sulaymān Al-‘Ash’ath, and Ahmad Ibn Asram Al-Muzani - and the following wording is for Sulaymān, He said: I said to Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, “Can we pray behind the Murji’a?”

He (Imām Ahmad) said: “If he was a caller to it (Irjā’), he is not to be prayed behind.”

Saw a quote that says "during the janazah don't think you're taking the dead to it's final destination! It's the dead that is showing you your destination." And it hit me.

I ask Allah to aid and protect all those who tread this path. May Allah protect and preserve our beloved Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibrīl, and grant him and his family Blessings and Barakah from means which they could never imagine.

Being tested with sadness in Dunya

Malik Ibn Dinar (رحمه الله) said:

I saw Al-Hasan (رضي الله عنه) in my dream after his death. He was happy and he was glowing white and his tears shone when they flowed.

I asked: “Are you not dead?” He replied in the affirmative.

I added: “What have you attained after death, for indeed you spent much time in sadness on earth?”

He replied: “Allāh has removed sadness from us and has guided to the abodes of the pious (manāzil al-abrār). He has made lawful for us the houses of the righteous (masākin al-muttaqqeen). By Allāh! This is only because of Allāh’s favour upon us.”

I said: “What do you command us to do, O Abu Sa'īd?”

He replied: “I wish people would prolong their sadness in the worldly life such that they have happiness in the Hereafter.”

[Beacon Of Basra]

“There would come a time when bodies would be living and hearts would be dead.”
