"A dream that was seen about our Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril حفظه الله around 2016/17. Those who were on Twitter at the time will remember that his students informed us that he was facing intense & mighty trials during that period.
Shaykh Ahmad's father (Shaykh Musa حفظه الله) is very skilled & knowledgeable in dream interpretation (as is Sh Ahmad). When Shaykh Musa received the dream he replied (part of a longer message): "An excellent glad tidings dream... It's a consolation for our family's hearts..."
Seeing the new lectures, series, and advices from the Shaykh recently, we hope that Allah fulfills the meaning of the dream and makes it a reality. I remember clearly, that even when coming out of the waves of a stormy ocean, the Shaykh looked not the slightest bit effected.
For those who don't know the story of the boy and the King:

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) that the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: “There are seven whom Allāh will shade with His shade on the Day when there will be no shade but His…” among whom he mentioned, “a young man who grew up worshipping Allāh.”
[Bukhaari, Muslim]
Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali (رحمه الله) said:
Whoever is mindful of Allāh when he is young & strong, Allāh will take care of him when he is old & has become weak, & will bless him with good hearing, eyesight, strength & reasoning. One of the scholars who lived beyond the age of one hundred years & enjoyed good strength & reasoning, jumped up in a lively manner one day & was asked about that. He said: “I kept these physical faculties from sin when I was young & Allāh has preserved them for me now that I am old.” The opposite also applies; one of the salaf saw an old man begging from people and said: “This is a weak man who ignored Allāh when he was young, so Allāh is ignoring him now he has grown old.”

⬆️ Very important reminder from the Shaykh (حفظه الله) that many brothers are negligent of and pay no heed to.
In the story of the Ifk (slander) of A'isha (رضي الله عنها), the Sahabi who found her in the desert, Safwan ibn Mu'attal (رضي الله عنه), refrained from speaking a word to her while being in private with her, out of fear of Allah and respect to the honor of Prophet ﷺ. Instead, he alerted her to his coming with words of Dhikr only, because she was The Prophet's ﷺ wife and he had no right to be speaking to another mans wife.
Today you have Muslim brothers who, aside from lacking fear of Allah, they have no respect to the honor of their brothers in Islam, and will willingly and knowingly message their sisters, daughters, and wives, seeking to exchange words with them in private. Fear Allah and respect the honor of your brothers in Islam.

"One of the hardest things for a truly honorable man or honorable woman is for someone to come and talk about his wife. That's the hardest thing. You could kill someone, or kill his brother....you could get over that, but talking about a man's honor is one of the hardest things he goes through. This is a lesson for us. This is a lesson for the Du'aat. When The Prophet—and HE, who is He ﷺ— and HIS honor gets talked about, who are you?"

"One of the hardest things for a truly honorable man or honorable woman is for someone to come and talk about his wife. That's the hardest thing. You could kill someone, or kill his brother....you could get over that, but talking about a man's honor is one…
"She [Maryam عليها السلام] went through agony, this woman, a woman by herself, no relatives, she had no one except Allah. She went through the agony of everyone accusing her honor. The biggest thing that anyone could do to a woman, a pious woman is accuse her honor. You could kill all her relatives, you could probably kill her. But a pious woman, the hardest thing on her is to hear of someone talking about her honor."

We can learn a lot about male/female interactions and proper behavior that females and males should each adapt by reading about what took place between Musa عليه السلام and the two women he met at the watering well after he fled from Misr. The Qur’an mentions…
Some More Lessons:
Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril حفظه الله narrates:
"He got to an area where there's water. He found a large group of people fighting over the water, crowding over the water. And he saw on the side, two women, refusing to approach the crowd. This isn't just a story. This is to tell you how pious women are, how shy they are. A woman doesn't go in the crowd and push people around and get water for herself. The pious women wait. They're waiting over there. Until Musa asked her "what's your situation?" Why are you over here and everyone's over there. They said:
قَالَتَا لَا نَسْقِى حَتَّىٰ يُصْدِرَ ٱلرِّعَآءُ ۖ
"They said, "We do not water until the shepherds dispatch [their flocks]"
"We don't go in this crowd until everyone goes and disperses, then we'll go." Musa got jealous. This is the characteristics of a man. When he sees his sisters degraded, when he sees their honor degraded, when he hears of them raped, when he hears of them killed, when he hears of them being burned alive, he doesn't say "it's not my business"! he does what Musa عليه السلام did, what did Musa عليه السلام do? He went to the well and pushed everyone aside and he bought the water for them and said go on your way. Then he goes back under the tree. He didn't do that and say "Ah insha'Allah in the future she's gonna marry me, she's gonna fall in love with me." That wasn't something he did. He said:
رَبِّ إِنِّى لِمَآ أَنزَلْتَ إِلَىَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ
"My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me, in need."
Oh Allah I'm poor, all that you give me I'm still a poor person, a very weak person. He sitting under that tree, and again, Allah mentioned that same woman coming to him عَلَى ٱسْتِحْيَآءٍ. There's not a single word that comes in the Qur'an out of context, Allah doesn't mention a word in there just to you know make the story more humorous or nice to listen to
فَجَآءَتْهُ إِحْدَىٰهُمَا تَمْشِى عَلَى ٱسْتِحْيَآءٍ
"Then one of the two women came to him walking with shyness."
she's shy.
قَالَتْ إِنَّ أَبِى يَدْعُوكَ لِيَجْزِيَكَ أَجْرَ مَا سَقَيْتَ لَنَا
"She said, "Indeed, my father invites you that he may reward you for having watered for us."
my father calls you..... Look at the pious men how they walk, when they walk with women. He told her "walk behind me." Look at this, look at what extent he went to. He said walk behind me and every time you want me to go the left or to the right you throw a stone to the left or to the right and I'll know the direction we need to go to."

Covering the Matn of Furū’ Al-Fiqh 📖
by Al-Shaykh Yūsuf Ibn Abdulhādi
Furū’ Al-Fiqh, meaning the branches of Islamic Jurisprudence, is the knowledge of learning religious practical matters and rulings that are deduced from the detailed sources. Based on the Hanbali Madhhab, this matn is a Fiqh summary - short and deep in meaning, to aid the Tulāb Al-‘Ilm in perfecting the sciences, while acting as a map of that knowledge, as it encompasses most of the various chapters of Fiqh. The objective is to teach the style of the ‘Ulamā’ of Fiqh, and to obtain a strong foundation on the study of Fiqh for one to excel on their own, if needed. It will be (inshā-Allah) an extensive study on Fiqh to cover all topics. Opinions of the four ‘Ulamā’ will be mentioned when applicable or beneficial. This method of teaching will benefit anyone who follows any or no Madhhab (inshā-Allah).
May Allah grant the Shaykh barakah and facilitation, 'Amīn.

How can you sleep knowing your sisters are being raped?
A woman tells Shaykh al-Zahrānī when Shaykh al-Zahrānī went to visit the refugees who were running away from Syria on the border of Jordan in the refugee camps, a woman stood up to him, she said: "Shaykh, we fled but we didn't flee because we fear our lives, but because we fear them raping us and our daughters, Shaykh I was a nurse, and a woman after woman of the honourable women of Syria would come to me asking me for suicide by vaccination". They want a shot to put them out of their life, why? Because they no longer can live after being raped, they feel that, Wallāhī she said it, and when the Syrians speak, you better listen and believe. Haytham al-Mālih said on al-Jazīrah, the 15 year old his relative who was imprisoned with, his relative was a 60 year old woman, they let her go, probably had no use for her, for their evil purposes, so they let her go, she said: "Wallāhi I was in prison with a 15 year old who was raped by 60 of the thugs of the Rāfidah". When they asked another man to get ransom for his wife, his wife told him: “no, don't pay the ransom to get me out of prison, over 20 of them raped me, I wanna die.” The letter that was sent out from the prisons of the Assad's from your sisters, "Help us, rescue us, we're being raped! If you can't, then at least send us pills so we don't have to get pregnant from the thugs of the Assad, the Rāfidah."
Yeah, it's not the Jews doing this, nor is it the crusaders, it's who we have been telling you for decades, and Ibn Taymiyyah has been telling you for over 700 years, and the Scholars for many years, now the Syrians uncover the reality of this matter, how many have heard of the cries and the shouts of the women seeking help, but poor women, what were they thinking, what are the shouts for, you're speaking to a dead Ummah, do you think the Mu'tassim is alive, they must be thinking they're talking to an alive Ummah, but they are talking in reality to a dead Ummah, she's speaking to an Ummah that slaughtered jealousy and exterminated it out of their lives, she's speaking to an Ummah who's hearts died long ago, an Ummah that no longer has a Mu'tassim, when one call came to al-Mu'tassim, and this is a true story, some people put doubts to this story because they can't see something like this happening. When one woman called al-Khalīf al-'Abbās al-Mu'tassim, one woman, because one Christian had dishonoured her, a man heard her, a Muslim was hearing her, he responded - the christian who dishonoured the Muslim woman told her: “O you call the leader al-Mu'tassim, you think he's going to come when he's pre-occupied with his servants and concubines”, the man who heard her, the muslim rode the desert for a month to get to al-Mu'tassim: "you're sitting here drinking water and luxury and comfort, and this Muslimah is going through this and that of what just happened". When he explained the situation, al-Mu'tassim put down the cup and told the servants, "don't touch this cup, I'm gonna to come back and finish it when I'm done". He goes to 'Āmuriyyah, rescues the girl and captures the one who dishonoured her, and tells him, "Do you really think I'll be pre-occupied with my concubines and wives over the honour of a believing Muslim woman?!" and he opened the land of 'Āmuriyyah, 4 different minor versions of this story, but it's as solidly as true as can be.

Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali said in ‘Lata’if al-Ma’arif’ (p. 276):
“Winter is the best season for the believer because…Allah strengthens his practice in it by making worship easy for him. This is because in winter, the believer can fast during the day with ease without suffering from hunger and thirst. The days are short and cold, and he therefore doesn’t feel the hardship of fasting…
As for praying at night in the winter due to its long nights, one can have his share of sleep and then get up to pray afterwards and recite all that he usually recites of the Qur’an while he has had enough sleep. So, he can combine between the sleep that he needs and the usual amount of recitation of the Qur’an that he completes in a day. So, he fulfills the interests of both his religion and the comfort of his body…
And it was narrated that Ibn Mas’ud said: “Welcome to winter! Blessings descend in it, its nights are long to pray in, and its days are short to fast in.” It is also narrated from him and al-Hasan: “Winter is a wonderful time for the believer. Its nights are long to pray in, and its days are short to fast in.” When it was winter time, ‘Ubayd bin ‘Umayr would say: “O people of the Qur’an! Your nights are now long for you to recite in. So, recite! Your days are now short for you to fast in. So, fast! Night prayer in the winter equals fasting during the day in the summer.” This is why Mu’adh wept on his deathbed and said: “I weep because I will miss the thirst I felt when I fasted, praying at night during the winter, and sitting knee to knee with the scholars during the gatherings of knowledge.””

"In Musannaf of Ibn Abi Shaybah, Hudhayfah was asked, "Who do you consider the living dead?" He said "Those who abandon Al Amr bil Maroof wan Nahi 'anil Munkar"
Those who abandon ordaining the good and forbidding the evil. He considered them the living dead, that's why a true Dā'iya prefers the underground than over it, when he can't do Amr bil Maroof wan Nahi 'anil Munkar or he's banned from it and he's willing to risk the most valuable to perform it. It's such an important, neglected obligation that returns upon one in Dunya and Akhira."
