“And you will never be able to be equal [in feeling] between wives, even if you should strive [to do so]. So do not incline completely [toward one] and leave another hanging. And if you amend [your affairs] and fear Allah - then indeed, Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.” [an-Nisā’]

#NEW | The Rogs of This Ummah | Al-Shaykh Al-Imām Ahmad Musā Jibrīl (حفظه الله)
An older, yet pointed and relevant response by our beloved Shaykh, at those who try to undercut the importance and relevance of implementing the Shariah of Allah. We ask Allah to protect, preserve, and honor him in this life and the next.
Please be sure…
Please be sure…
It truly pains the heart to know that Ulama' of Haqq can simply be snatched from their homes by the government, missing for years with no info about their whereabouts, & returned to their families, years later, insane.
They may silence our 'Ulama, but they cannot silence their message. The truth lives on, no matter how much the Tawagheet strive to bury it. May Allah's eternal curse be upon the Pakistani government and it's army, who waged war on the Awliya' of Ar-Rahman!
Our tears never dry in remembering him, our Shaykh Allamah 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir (حفظه الله)

“The Muslim Is Just Like a Bee!”
The Muslim, a believer in the lethal society he lives in, that’s filled with the poison of corruption and havoc all over, spreading rapidly, should forbid the evil and enjoin the good. In a society that seeks nothing else but to corrupt the innocence of the people and tare down the pureness and justice system of the Shari’ah, leaving no remanence of goodness and sparing none, he should stand steadfast like a bulwark. The comparison of a believer especially in such circumstances - as our beloved Shaykh Musa Jibril always taught and embodied - is supposed to be like that of a bee, all the time giving honey - spreading good wherever it goes. He is supposed to be an agent for the preservation of virtues and modesty, goodness and faith wherever he goes, and eliminate the vices.

A big issue with the Muslims today, especially on Social Media:
Whenever there’s slander against any brother or sister, everyone has something to say and everyone wants to talk and give their 2 cents, but whenever it comes to defending brothers and sisters from that same slander that they’re acquitted of, nobody wants to get involved.
In fact, there are those who put on pious public personas on social media, but behind the scenes they will promote slander and slyly instigate doubts regarding those who are being slandered, making them seem more liable to what they’re being accused of. Then, when clarifications come out and others take on to defend the honor of those Muslims who are being slandered and clear their names, those “pious” personas zip up their mouths as if it’s Haram to defend the Muslimeen.
If you so much as instigated doubts or caused subtle suspicion regarding the Deen, honor, or character of any Muslim or Muslimah, whether it private or in public, you better open your mouth and retract everything you said and make an extra effort to defend those Muslims and clear their names. Whatever statements are released in their defense better be shared by those who allowed the slander to grow or tried to subtly promote it, IF you truly fear Allāh! How dare you run your big mouths while a sister or brother are being slandered and bring up other “suspicious” things about them to aid the slander (intentionally or not), and then zip your mouth when the truth comes out and they’re being defended? Finish what you started!
This is can be generally applicable, but moreso referring to a certain slander against a sister that festered many many months ago, in which many ran their big mouths, but when she was defended, those big mouths shyed away from sharing what was said it her defense or in retracting their private statements that alluded to her being guilty. Fear Allāh!
One of the rights of a Muslim upon another is to defend his honor in his absence. How few are those who practice this great act and reap its rewards! Instead we have those who instigate more doubts about Muslims in their absence rather than clearing their name. If you don’t know them or the situation well enough to defend them, then at least stay quiet, for Allāh’s sake!

As we know, Shaykh Ahmad (حفظه الله تعالى) does not like for his personal affairs or trials to be disclosed or discussed. But as his students we feel this message is important for the reason of bringing solace to those concerned about the Shaykh and his well-being.
An abundance of praise and thanks to Allah, who has facilitated an almost complete recovery of our beloved Shaykh Allahumma bārek lah! He and his father, alhamdullilāh, seem to be nearly fully recovered - and we ask Allah to shower them with His blessings, good health, well-being, and a long life filled with righteousness and sincerity. May Allah accept from them, and every Muslim who has endured an illness or disease patiently!
JazākumAllahu khairan to all who supplicated for their recovery, offered valuable advice, and showed concern and care. Inshā'Allah it is a sign that reflects how cherished our beloved Shuyūkh are.
اللهم بارك لهم و حفظهم الله تعالى
We ask Allah to grant Shifā' to all those afflicted with ailments, trials, and any form of pain - and make it a means of purification and elevation of ranks.

Abdullah bin 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: "A good deed brings illumination to the face, light in the heart, power in the body, and love in the people's hearts. A bad deed shows as dullness in the face, darkness in the heart, weakness in the body, shortage of blessings, and hatred in people's hearts."

Shaykh Ahmad Baathaf asked a famous Shaykh (Dr. Naasir al-‘Aqil) who is the most knowledgeable in ‘Aqeedah? Shaykh Naasir al-‘Aqil has a Masters and PhD in ‘Aqeedah (very knowledgeable in ‘Aqeedah) and he taught generations. This Shaykh (Shaykh Ahmad) is asking Shaykh Naasir al-‘Aqil who is the most knowledgeable in ‘Aqeedah? Shaykh Naasir al-‘Aqil said I do not know anyone on the face of this earth more knowledgeable in ‘Aqeedah than Shaykh Abdullah al-Ghunaymaan. Shaykh Abdullah al-Ghunaymaan has a PhD and I actually believe that to be a very, very accurate statement.
Shaykh Abdullah al-Ghunaymaan taught me and my father before me. And when he taught me, I used to frequent his house a lot. My father called him at one point and requested that he teach me. In addition, he taught us in the Islamic University and he was a teacher there in the regular curriculum of the Islamic University. He also had a chair in the Haram where he taught at times three days a week between Maghrib and Ishaa’, and at times four times a week between Maghrib and Ishaa’, and I also frequented his house. I may be mistaken and I do not want to put this on my account, but looking back at it, I do not think I have ever seen him ever smile during my stay with him or my study with him. I actually once took a friend with me to his house. I was going to go learn something and I tagged along a friend with me. During when we were talking, my friend asked a question and he got scolded real badly. When we got back in the car, he said do not ever bring me here again. He was tough and Inshaa Allah it is because he wanted to raise people properly or maybe it is his nature. I am there to learn from this giant and that is what it is. May Allah grant him and my father a long life full of deeds and Barakah.
The point is one needs patience in every aspect of learning. Today if you do not baby your students, one loses patience suddenly and he is gone. And you will be lucky if you do not find him posting something negative about you if you do not pamper him or her. Keep patience between your eyes. It is a journey – you are on a journey on Talab al-‘Ilm and you need patience for it.

"A person may never slander - which falls under the previous cause (the Apparent Existential Sins). But he may see it and not do Inkār of the Munkar. And that falls under this cause from two avenues... It's the right of a Muslim upon another to defend him if he's being slandered. You're not the one slandering - but you're abstaining from defending your brother. The second avenue is that leaving the defense of your brother is leaving forbidding the evil as well..."
Shaykh Ahmad Musā Jibrīl (حفظه الله تعالى و راعى)
Brothers and sisters must rise to the occasion to defend those slandered, especially their Shuyūkh. Da'wah is pure, but it has proven to be a playground for Juhāl, Husād, decievers, slanderers and gossipers. It's important to constantly check one's sincerity to ensure they don't fall into the latter categories or leave da'wah altogether when faced with the harm that comes with it. May Allah silence the tongues of all those who slander our Shuyūkh, brothers, and sisters in Islam.
Be wise in how you fulfill your obligation of defending your Muslim brothers and sisters, and may Allah make it a means of purification and elevation of ranks for all those who are slandered.

The importance of defending Shuyūkh and Muslims in general against backbiting & slander
Imām Al-Nawawi (رحمه الله) said:
“Note that the one who hears any backbiting about a Muslim should refute it and rebuke the one who says it. If he does not rebuke him in words he should rebuke him by his actions. If he cannot rebuke him by his actions or his words, then he should leave that gathering.
If he hears any backbiting about his Shaykh or anyone else who has a right over him or is one of the righteous and virtuous people, then he should pay even more attention to what we have said.
In the book of al-Tirmidhi we narrated from Abu’l-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: “Whoever protects the honour of his brother, Allāh will protect his face from the Fire on the Day of Resurrection.” [Al-Tirmidhi]”

In defence of our beloved Shaykh (حفظه الله): there are apparently some loose tongued juhhaal who have attempted to slander him but in reality they harm none but themselves.
There are several examples of some who slandered him in the past and today they are openly murtaddeen.
So continue chewing poisonous flesh, soon we will witness the death of your hearts before the death of your bodies because:
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُدَٲفِعُ عَنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْۗ
"Truly, Allah defends those who believe."

🔹The People of Qur’aan hope for a trade that will never perish🔹
The people of Qur’aan who live with it by their hearts and souls, without desiring to attain by it the vanities of this temporary life – they hope for a trade and a gain that will never perish. Rather Allaah has bore witness to their righteousness. He (subhaanahu wa ta’aala) has said:
"Indeed, those who recite the Book of Allah and establish prayer and spend [in His cause] out of what We have provided them, secretly and publicly, [can] expect a transaction [i.e., profit] that will never perish. That He may give them in full their rewards and increase for them of His bounty. Indeed, He is Forgiving and Appreciative” [al-Faatir: 29-30]
Qataadah (رضي الله عنه) used to say whenever he read this verse: “This is the verse of the Qurraa’ (reciters).” [Tafseer al-Qurtubi (14/345)] – and that is because of what it confirms for them from great recompense and multiplied reward, and they do not take pleasure in just abundant reward, but rather Allaah increases them in honor and virtue.
Al-Qurtubi said: “This increase is intercession in the Hereafter.”
