“Whatever the Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) narrates from his Lord, it is obligatory to believe in it, whether we understand its meaning or not, because he (صلى الله عليه وسلم) is the most truthful one...”

A 4-year-old child has returned to his lord after being run over by a tanker truck. The tanker drove into the al-Hol detention camp to refill the water tanks.

The children were playing outside. This is not the first child to have been run over by a tanker.

May Allah shower his mother with Sabr. He has spent more than half of his short life in captivity.

Keep us in your duas inshaAllaah

Only Allaah knows how we feel. The fear of being raided any time and have our belongings stolen by the soldiers. Fear of getting arrested and see our children being taken away from us...

The saddest part is the children, they are so traumatized. Some don't like their moms to take pictures of them because it's well known the soldiers come inside people's tents taking pictures of them if they're looking for someone. The children say 'mama don't take picture of me, the kuffar will take me'.
They get worried anytime someone strange knocks at our tents, they say 'mama the kuffar will take you?'
Wallahi i heard these things from my own child.

We know it's a test from Allaah and we expect good from Him always. We hope for a way out to a better place where we can raise our kids without fear, where we can walk freely fearing no one but Allaah.

Keep us in your duas and make dua against the criminals and their supporters who imprisoned us.

And feel free to help your sisters.

That is they are in charge with regard to making sure that they are doing their duties towards Allah, by keeping up with the obligatory duties and restraining them from committing evil; men are obliged to make sure that they (women) adhere to that.

They are also in charge of them in terms of spending on them, clothing them, and providing accommodation for them.

Allah states the reason why men are in charge of women:
"Because Allah has made one of them excel the other, and because they spend of their wealth on them"

The superiority of men over women can be seen in many ways. For example, positions of political authority are only for men, as is prophethood and messengerhood. Moreover, men are singled out, to the exclusion of women for many acts of worship, such as jihad and Eid and Jumu'ah prayers.

It is also because of what Allah has bestowed exclusively on them of wisdom, mature thinking, patience and perseverance, the like of which women do not have.

[Tafsir As-Sa'di | vol.2, p.173-174]
You often hear people repeating statements like "You can still do everything you used to do before wearing proper Hijab after wearing it", and "Hijab/Niqab doesn't limit you whatsoever".

This is wrong. Hijab/Niqab DOES and SHOULD limit you from doing things, and when you try to push through those limitations you end up making a mockery of the covering. It's a fact that once you start covering according to the Shari'ah you are barred and prevented from doing many things you used to do before covering and that's perfectly OKAY.

Certain things are not allowed for Muslim women in general, but you will still find those sisters who don't cover properly doing them. But once sisters start covering, they realize that they feel uncomfortable doing those same things as a covered woman and they will find that their covering actually prevents them from certain things.

For example, as a woman in a Jilbab or Niqab, you cannot swim in public pools (no muslim should in fact, man or woman). You cannot eat in free mixed restaurants (again something no Muslim should). You cannot attend free mixed weddings. You cannot ride a bike in public, and so on and so forth

These are all things that perhaps you used to do before covering, and once you start covering you will begin to naturally feel awkward and prevented from doing these same things and you will find it hard to cover while doing them. This is not oppression, this is the natural BLESSINGS that come with covering properly - that you are prevented from doing these things that are either prohibited or they require you to compromise your covering.

Many sisters used to eat in free mixed restaurants, but once they donned the Niqab they naturally pulled away from doing so because the Niqab prevented them from eating comfortably in public, and along with that they stopped the sin of free mixing in restaurants.

Many sisters used to swim in public pools, and once they started covering they realized that this is something that is unbefitting of a woman covered so nobly, that she should bathe in a pool full of shirtless men and naked women.

Likewise, the free mixed weddings become awkward and everybody stares at the sister in Niqab amongst the crowd of scantily dressed women, so she naturally stops attending.

And riding a bike requires one to wear a less covering Jilbab or else she might injure herself. It also shows the shape of the thighs and exposes the ankles and the breeze from riding makes the clothes stick to the body. So a sister who cares about covering would stop riding where people can see her.

These are examples of how simply doing one act properly (Hijab) one is naturally repulsed from so many other acts that an uncovered woman does so easily. That's a blessing not a curse, as some sisters act like it is.

Now we have women trying to make sure they continue doing all the same things that they used to do before covering so that they don't look oppressed or feel limited. Because of this, we see pictures of sisters in Niqab/Jilbab in swimming pools in the midst of shirtless men and naked women, soaked from head to toe with their Jilbab clinging to every curve of their bodies. Tell me, is that acceptable of a woman dressed like the Sahabiyaat? All in the name "no limitations" due to Hijab.

We see Akhawat making sure to continue free mixed studies after donning Niqab to show people that the Hijab won't stop her from anything. We see Akhawat riding bikes in Jilbab around crowds of men with their ankles exposed and their clothing pushed by the wind against them. We see sisters attending free mixed weddings in their Niqab even though they feel out of place, just because they don't want to feel like they can't do something now that they're covered.
You see sisters working out in Jilbaab and Niqab! If you have to cover when working out, that means you're doing it in a place you shouldn't be in the first place (free mixed place where men can see you, and where you will see the 'Awrah of others). And when exercising, it's impossible to maintain the standard of modesty we are required to uphold. You cannot prevent your shape from becoming apparent when doing various exercises.

The whole point of this is to say: Proper Hijab does limit you, it does restrict what you do. Because once you put it on you are representing yourself as an honorable, noble, free Muslimah and a granddaughter of the Sahabiyaat (may Allah be pleased with them all). You will NOT be able to do everything you did before, and that is from the blessings of covering, that Allah guides you to leave off other prohibited things as well and guides you to carry yourself in a more modest way, even in your actions. There is no need for you to push yourself to continue acting as you did before, as this only makes you look foolish and oftentimes causes you to compromise and contradict your Hijab. Accept the limitations that come with covering properly as blessings and see the Hijab as a protection from all sorts of indecency and immodesty.

If you want to swim, do it privately. If you want to ride a bike, do it in a secluded area. If you want to attend weddings, attend segregated ones. If you want to continue your education, you can pursue it in segregated schools or online. Workout at home or in a secluded area. Hijab won't prevent you from Halal, only from Haram. Don't try to push through those limitations and think you're doing something revolutionary by swimming in a Jilbab or Niqab. It's only a contradiction of the covering.


Side Note: There's no such thing as a modest swimsuit, even if it's a whole Jilbab. Once it's wet, it's not modest anymore. Aside from that, public pools/swim areas are one of the most severe and abhorrent forms of free mixing as they combine free mixing with looking at the 'Awrah of others, both men and women. It's astonishing how common it is for Muslim families to bring their children and themselves to spend Summer days at such filthy places. Allahul Musta'an.

Allāh will never let His creation be a partner in His ruling and judgment. He is indeed the only One Who rules (legislates) and judges, and He manages them (the creations) in whatever way He wills."

This verse shows the shirk of worshiping others besides Allāh in His Judgment and Legislation and there is absolutely no difference between the one who prostrates to idols and the one who commit shirk with Allāh in His Judgment and Legislation. Both are Mushriks.

Is it permissible to observe voluntary fasts in the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, or is it a bidʿah?

Selected Fatāwā | Fatāwā No: 801

Question: Is it permissible to observe voluntary fasts in the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, or is it a bidʿah?

Answer: It is recommended to draw closer to Allah (ʿazza wa jall) by voluntary deeds and acts of obedience, especially in these blessed days. It was narrated on the authority of Ibn ʿAbbas (radiyallahu ʿanhuma) said: “The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa alihi wa sallam) said: ‘There are no days on which righteous deeds are done in them that are more beloved to Allah than these ten days (i.e. the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah).’” And this hadith is hasan sahih.

And no doubt, fasting is from the righteous deeds. It was narrated as in Abu Dawud from some of the wives of the Prophet (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa alihi wa sallam), that they said: “The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa alihi wa sallam) would fast the nine days of Dhul-Hijjah and the day of ʿAshuraʾ.”

As for those who say that it is bidʿah, then there’s no need to obey them, and their statement is irregular and rejected.

NEW VIDEO | Believing that jews and christians are saved is disbelief in Allāh by Shaykh Al-Muhaddith 'Abd Allāh As-Sa'd
Forwarded from Dār At-Tawhīd
In a lecture by Shaykh 'Abd Allāh ibn Jibrīn (رحمه الله) about the true meaning of religious commitment, he said on page 10:

Undoubtedly the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ is written down and is close at hand and easily accessible to the one who seeks it. All we have to do is look for it. If we learn a Sunnah we must act upon it so that it will be true when it is said of us that so and so is religiously-committed. We should pay no attention to those who put us down, despise us or mock us etc.

Sunnan [plural for Sunnah] may be obligatory, or they may be Mustahab [recommended], or they may come under the heading of good manners or good attitude. The Muslim should do every Sunnah that he is able to, seeking reward.

The religiously-committed person is the one who, every time he hears a Hadīth, rushes to apply it and is very keen to act upon it, whether it is Mustahab [recommended] or nāfil [supererogatory].

So for example, you may see him going to the mosque early and feeling sad if someone else gets there before him, or you may see him striving to read more Qur’ān and recite more dhikr than others, or you may see him doing a lot of different kinds of acts of worship, striving to ensure that all his deeds and acts of worship are in accordance with the Sunnah, with no element of bid’ah, so that these deeds and acts of worship will be acceptable to Allāh, because when a deed is accepted the Muslim attains the good pleasure of his Lord. We ask Allāh to make all our deeds acceptable to Him, for He is the All-Hearing, Ever-Responsive.

End quote.

Shaykh Al-Islām ibn Taymiyyah (رحمه الله) said: "The basis of shirk [anoscription of partners to Allāh] is when you equate Allāh, may He be exalted, with His creation in terms of some of that which He alone deserves to have ascribed to Him, because no one ever equated anything to Allāh in all respects. So whoever worships anything other than Him, or puts his trust in that thing is a mushrik who has associated something else with Him."

قال شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية رحمه الله: "وأصل الشرك أن تعدل بالله تعالى مخلوقاته في بعض ما يستحقه وحده ، فإنه لم يعدل أحد بالله شيئا من المخلوقات في جميع الأمور ، فمن عبد غيره أو توكل عليه فهو مشرك به ."

Shaykh Sulaymân al-‘Alwân spoke about 4 opinions concerning whether the first 10 of Dhul-Hijjah, or the last 10 of Ramadân are better:

1) the 10 days and nights of Dhul-Hijjah are better than the last 10 of Ramadân.
2) the 10 days and nights of Ramadân are better than the first 10 of Dhul-Hijjah.
3) the 10 days of Dhul-Hijjah are better, but the last 10 nights of Ramadân are better.
4) the 10 days and nights of Dhul-Hijjah are better than the last 10 of Ramadân, except the night of Laylatul Qadr, for the one who attains it, and this is the opinion of the shaykh.

📚Fiqh of the Salaf with regards to the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah📚

On the authority of Anas: "It was said regarding each of the days of first 10 of Dhul Hijjah, that each day [of worship] equated to 1000 days, and the Day of 'Arafah equated to 10,000 days [of worship]."

And Abu Uthmān al-Nahdē said: "They (The Salaf) would hold in high regard (i.e., expend a greater effort in worshiping Allah) the three sets of 10 [days]: (1) The first 10 of Muharram, (2) The first 10 of Dhul Hijjah, (3) and The last 10 of Ramadan."

And Al-'Awzā'ee said: "It has reached me that worshipping Allah in the first 10 days [of Dhul Hijjah] equated to participating in a battle for the sake of Allah whilst fasting its day and guarding [the Muslims] in the night."

Saudi Arabia effectively cancels shop closing for prayer time.

“Another hugely symbolic and practical step to end the dominance of the reactionary religious class on daily life.”

“While this is nominally being attributed to COVID (and also a better consumer experience!) this is just a useful excuse to establish the practice. It’s virtually certain to continue that is why I say “effectively”.”
