The best thing a parent can pass down to a child is the gift of appreciation and love towards the Kalam of Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎ — the Qur'an — such that when they look back once they've grown up, their fondest memories of their childhood are those of being taught Surahs, the family Tafseer Halaqah after Salat al-Maghrib, the Qur'an quizzes during car drives, falling asleep to their mother's recitation and waking up to that of their father. When they awaken in the nights and go to their parents room, they find them engaged in Tahajjud, fully encaptivated in the recitation of The Words of Allah, not by some filthy movie. Memories of their parents always picking up the Mushaf when they had free time and not some useless novel. Strive to establish a household in which your children are running around, not singing songs from cartoons and movies, but rather reciting verses from The Book of Allah سبحانه و تعالى‎.

How could children with such a beautiful and solid foundation not grow up to become beacons of light and leaders for this Ummah?

Just a little teaser:

If you’re liking the series so far, just wait till you see the last couple of parts insha’Allah. May Allāh give us Tawfeeq to release them.

WAllahi, there’s no words to describe the amount of overwhelming happiness and extreme gratitude we felt towards Allāh سبحانه وتعالى when we finished listening to the series. Sayings it’s absolutely amazing is a grievous understatement.

Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril حفظه الله pounded these Zanādiqah with fact after fact, refutations, and clarifications.

Prior to posting, I listened to a few snippets regarding Sulh Al Hudaybiyyah by some of these modernists. While narrating the events, they managed to portray even the most honorable shows of courage by the Rasul ﷺ through a humiliated and surrenderist lens, may Allāh deal with them. The speaker ended by bringing the youth in out of nowhere and advising them to know their places and stop trying to change the situation of the Ummah and settle for where we’re at now and don’t worry about what’s beyond your reach.

Look at the stark contrast between the way our Shaykh strives to re-instill the glory and honor of our history and our religion in the veins of the youth, how he always focuses on reminding them of their potential and inspiring them, and how these fakes strive to do the exact opposite.

May Allāh protect Shaykh Ahmad and his family always, elevate their ranks, and allow their Da’wah to flourish.

The most important thing after Tawhīd

“And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents…”
(Al-Isrā’:23)

During these few remaining nights while we are making du’ā for all our needs and wants for this life and the next, we shouldn’t forget the ones who are most deserving of our ad’iyā’ - our parents. The most important thing after Tawhīd is being dutiful to our parents and honouring them. Our parents are more deserving of our ad’iyā than anyone else but many are negligent in this matter. Make abundant du’ā for them, their well-being, Īmān, and ākhirah. Social media stresses the importance of spouses, friends, company etc, but more emphasis needs to put on the importance of our parents, and their rights upon us; and one of the easiest ways of honouring our parents is by keeping them in our constant ad’iyā’.

“And We have enjoined on man to be good and dutiful to his parents.”
[Al-Ankaboot:8]
—————————

May Allāh bless our parents with all that which is good fil dunyā wal ākhirah, grant them maghfirah, and raise their ranks to Firdaus Al-‘Alaa, Allāhuma Āmīn

"The majority of those who recite the Kalimah, tell me, who is their Lord? Tell me, who is their Ilah? They say "We are Muwahhideen, we worship Allah alone". NO! Out of the nearly two billion Muslims in the world, the majority worship America! They worship Washington! They worship the White House!

These are the lords that you don't see, that you don't recognize. We say, "Yes, only bowing your head to graves is Shirk. But worshiping America is not Shirk, worshiping the dollar, worshiping the Riyal and worshiping money is not Shirk. Yes, worshiping shrines is Shirk, but worshiping the Molvis is not Shirk."

Today those who claim Tawheed have misunderstood Tawheed!"

— Shaykh 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir (حفظه الله)

In these final ten nights, please don't forget our Shaykh 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir in your precious Du'aas along with all your imprisoned brothers and sisters around the globe. May we live to witness a Ramadan in which none of our brethren suffer or grieve.

An early 'Eid gift to the Muwahhideen! An amazing, nearly hour long lecture in which our dear Shaykh Ahmad Mūsa Jibrīl (حفظه الله) concludes the lecture series on Sulh Al Hudaybiyyah, leaving the Zanādiqah with no room to breathe as he relentlessly drives the points home. In this seventh and final part, the Shaykh further exposes the fallacies & deception of the deviants surrounding this issue on a more intense level in his signature step by step, easy-to-understand, in depth style, while tying in current events and calling out the Tawagheet of the Muslim world, and he concludes the lecture by highlighting the REAL lesson learnt from the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah and what Maslaha truly entails, starkly contrasting it to what the majority nowadays seek to derive from the event.

May Allāh accept this series from the Shaykh, and all the other series that were posted this blessed Ramadān, protect his family, raise his ranks, increase him in thabāt, and bless his life and Da'wah endlessly. We ask Allāh to reward all our beloved brothers and sisters, that we love dearly for His sake, who blessed us (bi'idhnillah) with these daily gems throughout the course of the month and all those who took part in the rewards by sharing the content. May they dwell in lofty palaces in Firdaws and may their hard work behind the scenes be a means of forgiveness for them and guidance for the masses.

Allāhumma Ameen

Yes! I am a Takfeeri!

by Shaykh 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir (حفظه الله)

Instead we find, among those who claim to be from Ahlus-Sunnah, harshness in speech with one another, backbiting, gossip, grudges, labeling, rudeness, jealousy, malice and more. And then we turn around and wonder at the division among our hearts, not owning up to the fact that it's a direct result of our ignorance in basic Adab towards our brethren in faith.

The reality is that very few of us have put a focus on learning and implementing وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ (And lower your wing [i.e., show kindness] to the believers. [Al Hijr]).

May Allah cleanse our hearts and grant us exemplary manners and conduct, in emulation of the Sunnah of His beloved and our beloved ﷺ .

رَبَّنَا ٱغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلِإِخْوَٰنِنَا ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِٱلْإِيمَـٰنِ وَلَا تَجْعَلْ فِى قُلُوبِنَا غِلًّا لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ

The command of Worshipping Allah Alone is followed up with being good to your parents, to signify its importance.

What a strange calamity we have nowadays, when brothers and sisters have some of the worst character with fellow Muslims and more importantly their parents, yet claim to have internalized Tawheed.

Tawheed manifests most importantly in your Aqeedah, then in your Character.

May Allah rectify our character and make us of the True Muwahideen.

EID 1443 AH: In this picture Shaykh Musa حفظه الله تعالى was trying to pull his hand away, while Shaykh Ahmad حفظه الله تعالى held it firmly in response, in order to kiss his father’s hand.

I ask Allah to preserve and protect these two legends, and benefit us with their knowledge and hikmah.

"When one sits and thinks about the greatest blessings that they have been endowed with in this world after Islam, Niqab definitely makes it somewhere near the top of the list.

Not just the cloth that covers the face, but rather the concept of it that settles in the heart and pumps modesty and shyness to every limb of the body.

Women are created with a natural inclination to adornment and beautification. Allah says regarding them:

أَوَمَن يُنَشَّؤُا۟ فِى ٱلْحِلْيَةِ وَهُوَ فِى ٱلْخِصَامِ غَيْرُ مُبِينٍ

"a creature who is brought up in adornments (wearing silk and gold ornaments, i.e. women), and who in dispute cannot make herself clear?" [Zukhruf]

It is only due to a great blessing and favor of Allah upon her that a woman would prefer and cling to a simple, plain glove over tens of rings of gold and diamonds, and if she was offered a choice between the two, she would not hesitate to choose that which conceals her and brings her closer to her Lord over that which pleases and suits her natural disposition. It's only Islam that brings such an effect to the hearts.

By Allah! The women who resist submitting to the commands of Allah and covering in accordance to His Law would fight and race to do it if only they knew the tranquility and Imaan it brings to the lives of those sisters who wear it.



They see it as a cage, but we see it as an armor.

They view it as a burden, but we consider it an honor."

Niqāb truly is a blessing and a gift from Allāh for the mu’mināt. Allāh has ordained this dress code for the protection and preservation of chastity not only for women but for society in general because an implication of the niqāb is that it prevents fawāhish in society. Such is the role of a Muslim woman - she has the power to make or break a generation.

It is therefore incumbent upon every muslimah to uphold this dress code and act accordingly giving it it’s due rights. Unfortunately even amongst some niqābi sisters the only thing “religious” about them is their niqāb but their behaviour, mindset and mannerisms is far from what one would expect of a niqābi sister.

When covering oneself with this virtuous attire, one must remember that they are following and emulating the best of women to walk upon the earth and that such an emulation is a virtue and honour. The niqāb should affect how a sister thinks, talks, and walks. It should have an impact on all spheres of her life - not just the outer appearance.

Once one understands the purpose and role the niqāb plays one would never degrade it to a mere cloth, because this “cloth” is a clothing signifying honour and dignity - a weighty characteristic trait all muslimahs should be known for.

As much as the “civilised west” talks about liberating and freeing the woman from the shackles of such rules which Islām proudly promotes. The west has never and will never liberate and raise a woman’s status and rank like Islām has. Wear this attire with pride and dignity and let no one reduce it’s worth to a mere cloth.

O Lord, how can I respond,
when they ask about my distance?

For my heart has put up barriers,
against those who show You resistance.

A foreigner amongst my people,
despite our descent from the same seed,

Alas even blood cannot bring together,
those who separated due to creed.

Rights of the Husband #1 - Obedience

The first right that the husband has over his wife is that of obedience. Allāh has made men Qawwām (leaders) over women. One of the rights of a leader over those he leads is obedience. Allāh says:

الرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاء بِمَا فَضَّلَ اللّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَبِمَا أَنفَقُواْ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ

“Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has made one of them to excel the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means” [al-Nisā’ 34]

‘Ali ibn Abi Talhah said, narrating from Ibn ‘Abbās: “Men are the protectors and maintainers of women” means, they are in charge of them, i.e., she should obey him in matters of obedience that Allāh has enjoined upon her, and obey him by treating his family well and taking care of his wealth. This was the view of Muqātil, al-Saddi and al-Dahhāk. [Tafseer Ibn Kathīr]

Ibn Taymiyyah (رحمه الله) said, commenting on Allāh’s saying: “Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient and guard in the husband’s absence what Allāh orders them to guard (i.e. their chastity).” [Surah An-Nisā’ 34]: “This mandates the unrestricted obligation of a woman obeying her husband... [Majmū’ al-Fatāwā (32/260-261)]

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, said, “A man is the guardian of his family and he is responsible for them. [Bukhāri & Muslim]. A shepherd is one who has control over the sheep and leads them, guides them, and protects them. A guardian is to be obeyed, and it is not possible for a man to be a guardian or leader to his family, without obedience from them.

Many Ahadith prove the right of obedience and describe the extent to which a woman is required to obey her husband, and they will be quoted in the coming posts. This right of obedience is very general, and many other rights fall under it that will be addressed specifically bi'idhnillah.

There are two exceptions to this general obedience that is binding upon her: She is not required to obey him in anything that is Harām/disobedience to Allāh or something that is harmful. The Prophet ﷺ said, “There is no obedience to a created being if it is disobedience to Allāh Almighty.” [Bukhari] This is an important principle that must always be highlighted when speaking on this matter, because many women ignorantly believe that they must obey their husband even in matters that Allah forbid (example: They don't cover their faces and hands because he doesn't want them to, or they permit him to engage in intimacy with them in periods that Allāh has prohibited it, and when you advise them, they say "but we must obey our husbands!")
