Please make du’ā for our brother (and all the Muslim prisoners everywhere)

May Allāh keep him steadfast, protect him from all harm, hasten his release with honor, and ease the affairs of his family. Āmīn

#AskAMJ | What is the ruling on spreading videos & pictures online which contain Harām in them (Music, Mutabarrijāt, ‘Awrah, etc.)?

What is the ruling on spreading videos & pictures online which contain Harām in them (Music, Mutabarrijāt, ‘Awrah, etc.)?

“We of course know that music is Harām. And likewise seeing any woman that’s not a Mahram, uncovered [‘awrah showing], is Harām. So if a clip contains any of that, it gives it the overall ruling that it’s Harām. It’s not a permissible clip. It’s not permissible to watch it and it’s not permissible to promote it.

Now, there may be benefits in circulating clips that contain some of that, at times. For example, some clips raising awareness for the Ummah, do have portions of that — because they may be taken out of news clips. So they may have Mutabarrijāt [women committing Tabarruj] in them. Or sometimes it’s for educational purposes. But those benefits, that some claim in promoting such clips, does not outweigh the Harām. Especially when there’s almost always other means to show the good that’s in the clips.

Sometimes it’s possible before promoting and circulating the clip, to mute the portions of it that has music. Or to blacken and darken the faces [of the women], or to blur them out, before circulating it.

Because the rule is: protecting ones Dīn from Harām is given precedent over other such benefits.”

— Ash-Shaykh al-Imām Ahmad Musa Jibril (حفظه الله)

ANNOUNCEMENT

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Alhamdulillah, by The Fadhl of Allah we have revamped and retooled a website which aims to centralize all of the Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril’s (حفظه الله تعالى) work, past, present, and future Insha’Allah.

No doubt, we have Gems amongst us in Shaykh Ahmad and his beloved father, Shaykh Musa حفظهم الله جميعا, so it only makes sense to facilitate a means that will Insha’Allah, preserve their works for generations to come.

While it is many months past due, it is finally complete by The Will and Fadhl of Allah Alone, then the extraordinary effort put forth by our beloved brothers and sisters. I ask Allah to grant them all an abode in the highest level of Firdaws, beneath the Throne of Allah.

Insha’Allah, we will be constantly updating it and Insha’Allah will try to update it with new content as it becomes available (and translations and new trannoscriptions of existing content) every couple of days, or every week at the latest Insha’Allah.

Please share in the Ajr and spread this website link far and wide, and please remember in your Duā, those who spent many nights working on this, sometimes falling asleep on their desks due to sheer tiredness and exertion.

Also, please stay tuned — an exciting new Series Trailer is coming soon Insha’Allah!

اللهم بارك!!!

A project we’ve all been anticipating eagerly, may Allāh سبحانه وتعالى preserve and bless the Shaykh and his students who worked tirelessly to bring this blessing to the Ummah. May Allāh bless the Shaykh in his life and Da’wah endlessly and allow it to flourish till Yawm Al-Qiyāmah.

The main driving force behind Da’wah — and ‘Ibādah in general — is not motivation, it’s discipline.

While motivation is a blessing, and it makes worship and work much easier to undertake, it’s prone to fluctuations. This work is for a purpose much greater then personal gratification, you will not always “feel good” or pumped to do it. Sometimes one might actually feel very burned out and put off. No doubt, one will also face severe trials as a result of it.

It’s imperative to remember: this not about you and how you’re feeling, this is the Deen of Allāh you’re working for. Personally, your feelings are irrelevant. When you’ve committed yourself to such a noble cause, you need to pull through and serve it. One needs to have a vision in mind and a plan to make it materialize, and then fortify themselves with discipline to make it happen.

It may sound dry and void of satisfaction, but as time passes, there is nothing sweeter and more valuable than that discipline.

A Matchless Virtue

"A woman must make her best efforts to learn what she can from the Qur’ān, for it is said that the number of the levels of Paradise correspond to the number of the verses of the Holy Qur’ān and it is said to the one who recites it: "Recite and rise, for your level is at the last verse which you recite". There was a group of women who have learnt the entirety of the Holy Qur’ān, and I have seen a group of them at our age. So the woman who has resolved must prefer this matchless virtue.”

— Ibn Al Jawzi رحمه الله [Ahkām An-Nisā’]

“Hifdh of the Qur’ān is an experience whose beauty cannot be expressed in words. A love story that is not told — only felt — because even if books were written on it, none would understand except those who traverse the journey…”

“When I give lectures, it’s only to youth. It’s only and mostly to youth. I rarely would ever — in fact, I wouldn't go to elders. Because, you know — we don’t have elders here today — but elders are usually stubborn. That’s how I feel, and that’s the truth, and that’s what you see in history. You know when Allāh talks about Mūsā عليه السلام, He says:

فَمَآ ءَامَنَ لِمُوسَىٰٓ إِلَّا ذُرِّيَّةٌۭ مِّن قَوْمِهِ

“But no one believed Moses, except [some] offspring [i.e., youths] among his people…” [10:83]

Except a small group of people believed in Mūsā. Who are these small group that believed in Mūsā? The small group who believed in Mūsā, Ibn Kathīr says, were the youth. Did not Mūsā عليه السلام give Da'wah to all the people of his time? Of course Mūsā gave Da'wah to all people of his time, however, who’s the one who's accepting? The youth. Always, its always them.

Yeah there’s a lot of people who are elder, who are born into something and they change, but it’s hard. Usually the youth. The youth think, then they go and ask, and figure out and come back. “Ha! This is the truth.””

— Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl حفظه الله تعالى

“If you don’t see sweetness in your heart and blessings in your life from your Da’wah and deeds, then re-examine your intention.

Allāh is The Most Appreciative!”

— Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl حفظه الله

Ties you keep,
let it be in pursuit of His Grace.

Ties you sever,
sincerely seeking His Face.

For how many a bond we maintained,
despite the tears that stained our cheek.

And how many nights we mourned,
about which we cannot speak.

Bridges going up in flames,
while our own hands have set them on fire.

What good are those who connect to evil,
when we live for something Higher?

Tears washed over our hearts,
so they became purified and clear.

Betrayal has never been a stranger,
abandonment never a fear.

So if all that’s gained is purity,
then foolish is one who complains.

To have a heart of glass that shatters,
is more honorable than one in flames.
