One thing that the people of desires will never be able to shake off, no matter how much they attempt to mask it, is the feeling of unsurety & doubt that plagues their hearts. Regardless of how much they try to refute & debate to appear in the right, those feelings always remain.

As for those upon the Manhaj of the Messenger ﷺ, they have full conviction that they're upon the truth & nothing but the truth. The trials that they face in this path only increase them in that conviction, and their hearts increase in steadfastness despite being tried & mocked.

We never forget the words of our Shaykh Musa (حفظه الله), when he faced the torture in prison, his family abandoned by the world, illness, the illness of his wife, loss of property, loss of nearly everything, every last person he knew nowhere to be found & more & more.

He was asked: Ya Abati, did you ever get doubts in your Iman, or your Iman become weak ever in this trial that we are going through?

He said: Habibi, if this did not happen to us, that is when I would have doubts. If this did not happen to us, that is when I would doubt the path.
Imām Mālik ibn Anas رحمه الله said:

"Indeed the wives of the Sahabah sought the Hereafter, so they did not care about the poverty of their husbands."

[Sahih Fiqh al-Sunnah 4/403]

Imām Mālik ibn Anas رحمه الله said: "Indeed the wives of the Sahabah sought the Hereafter, so they did not care about the poverty of their husbands." [Sahih Fiqh al-Sunnah 4/403]
The women of the Salaf used say to their husbands:

“Beware of haram earnings, for we can be patient with poverty, but not hellfire.”

Today, many sisters are the ones who pressure their husbands to earn Harām, and encourage them to pursue jobs in which they would have to compromise the Deen of Allāh. May Allāh guide us. Seeking Halāl rizq is one of the most difficult tests for a man, especially in The West. Sisters should be pillars of support, aiding their husbands and encouraging them to give up Harām jobs and seek Halāl rizq, even if that means living on a tight budget or even in poverty.

Going without a couple meals in a day is better than eating your full fill of food provided by Harām means.

Shaykh Ahmad is a ālim who conveys ocean's weight of knowledge in consice eloquent terms. Meanwhile those posing as people of knowledge mask their ignorance with fancy philosophical jargon. Whose words pierce the sincere hearts? May Allah make us sincere.

اللهم بارك له

May Allah protect the Shaykh and ease all his affairs.
Lack of good character & Islāmic manners among those who are claimants to the correct ‘Aqīdah is the major reason that so many marriages don’t last, in turn resulting in the inability to develop & raise solid communities which are crucial for raising the next generation upon Haqq.

Forget marriages and communities, even friendships and simply keeping ties is difficult due to the horrible manners and untrustworthiness among many.

Good character and manners are a heavy, heavy part of faith for a reason. We need to work hard on developing Islāmic manners and perfecting our characters to be in line with the example of The Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) in order to properly and successfully spread this ‘Aqīdah and solidify it in our children and society.

Playlist for the entire Tawheed Class Al Usool ath-Thalaatha | The Three Fundamental Principles by our dear Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril (حفظه الله) The classes that raised us, by The Grace of Allah, and that we hold so dear to our hearts. May Allah protect…
To say they raised us would be a grievous understatement actually. These classes served as light in the darkest of times, a source of steadfastness in moments of doubt, a consolation when we were mocked, & a companion for every step of this beautiful and trying journey.

What a blessing!

We’re not recommending a class, but rather a piece of our hearts and souls that serve as memories of every step & struggle in this path. How wretched are those who deprive themselves of such a blessing that lays at the tips of their fingers!

Just as we see today on social media, women who want to encourage our sisters to abandon the traditional Islamic way of covering their faces & start modernizing the Niqāb to fit in with western societies. There’s room to have different versions of covering, as we see all across the Muslim world. In Afghanistan, women wore/wear Burkas, in Bilaad Al Haramayn, overhead Jilbabs, & in North Africa the Hayek. However, all of these variations fit the Shari’ guidelines for how the women must dress & they covered the ‘Awrah properly & were not forms of adornment in and of themselves.

The issue with these influencers is that they dress in ways that are not in line with the Shari’ guidelines from the Qur’an & Sunnah and are influencing & encouraging (directly or indirectly) Muslim women to change their way of covering to fit in with western standards by either uncovering parts of their body that need to be covered, wearing adornments, imitating Kāfir women, or imitating the clothing of men.

We have seen on social media, women who are normalizing wearing Jilbab tops to the knees with some types of pants/trousers underneath. We have seen women who cover their faces & add an elaborate head piece, bandana, or a decorative hat. We have seen women who started a trend of covering the face but leaving the eyebrows & the forehead exposed. We have seen women who cover their faces but expose their hands, & often adorning them with rings, bracelets, & henna. We have seen women who wear Jilbab with tight jackets that reveal their shape over it. We have seen laces, frills, sequins, huge necklaces, jewelry, you name it. Every type of adornment one could imagine, being worn over Jilbabs and Niqabs.

The list goes on and on. All of these things are contrary to the way the Sahabiyaat covered & they often defeat the purpose of covering. Those women who post such pictures should know that they are guiding women to dress incorrectly & influencing them to do haram & make a wanton display of themselves. They are hijacking Niqāb & Jilbab & turning it into something completely western, trendy, & different than the purpose they were obligated for. They will have evil deeds even after their deaths.
It’s saddening how one will find so many sisters who have no care in protecting their hearts from being swayed when it comes to being on social media. Sisters following pages in which young men are constantly posting selfies, jokes, personal talk, etc. Do you truly benefit from their pages, ya Akhawaat?

How much harm it brings, by Allāh! Our young sisters, many unmarried and growing up in filthy societies where all that they are taught from childhood is to be lustful and attract the attention of men, then they get on social media and scroll through a feed full of brothers selfies and personal life mixed with some Da’wah. If this isn’t going to trap her heart and cause deficiency in her Imaan and modesty, what will?

There are plenty of pages that you can benefit from that don’t involve causing you to sin with your gaze and lose your shyness sisters. Unfollow the “selfie brothers”.
The beauty of motherhood used to be in the fact that a woman selflessly gives up everything for the sake of her children. Nowadays, women are upset that motherhood requires so much sacrifice from them. They’re constantly striving to retain everything about their lives from before, while being a mother at the same time, and the result is that they don’t fully immerse and invest themselves into the upbringing and development of their children.

What used to be seen as the most beautiful bond to exist in life is now marketed to young women as a burden and something that she needs to “plan” and put off until she’s enjoyed her life to the fullest. What used to be considered as the most fulfilling and spiritually satisfying occupation a woman could ever hold is now simply a nuisance and an obstacle in the face of her “ambitions”. The qualities we love our mothers for and are eternally grateful to them for (sacrificing their youth, time, and self to fully invest in our upbringing) are qualities we now label as being “toxic”.

The effect of letting women into the workplace and them becoming immersed into capitalism is that women now treat motherhood as if it’s a part time job. Many of them will shamelessly loathe that they’re not being reimbursed for the amount of effort they’re putting into raising their kids! Fulfillment for such a noble cause is expected to be materialistic and no one cares about the hereafter. It’s all about themselves and what they’re gaining or losing and not the spiritual aspect, the Fitra/sense of purpose, or the bigger picture for the Ummah. Individualism is really a curse, its infiltrated every aspect of our lives, even a concept so selfless as motherhood!

Given the recent video release of the Shaykh, we are going to post lecture # 8 of the previously unreleased series Furū' Al-Fiqh, tomorrow inshā'-Allah. The following week there will be no lecture so students can utilize this time to review all the lectures, and prepare for a test the week after that bi'thniAllah. May Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) grant us all Tawfīq and beneficial knowledge.

Every human tenderness, love, kindliness, warmheartedness, after the mother's is a delusion and an illusion.

Ya Allah grant our mothers ferdous.
