He Clung to His Books and Ignored The Scholars, So He Went Astray!

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Deviated Callers & Individuals.

Abdullaah narrated from his father Imaam Ahmad who said: ”If a person has written works (by the scholars) in which is contained the statements of Allaah’s Messenger  (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam), the differences of opinion between the Sahaabah and the Taabi’een, it is not permissible for him to act upon what he wants, choose (what he wants), judge by it and act upon it until he asks the people of knowledge  (i.e. the scholars) regarding what to take from it, so that he can act upon what is sound.” [Source: I’laam Al-Muwaqqi’een 2/84]

This above statement of Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) reminds us of a head amongst the Hizbiyyoon, whom the Imaam at Al-Markazus Salafi [Kamaal – Imaadud-deen (may Allaah preserve him)] told to refer to the scholars during the fitnah of Abul Hasan al-Maribi, so the hizbi said: ‘’I have a library and can search for the truth’’. We seek Allaah’s protection from misguidance Aameen.

 

How many Rak’ats prayed before khutbah begins on the day of Jum’ah

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Salaah - Prayer, Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Shaikh Muhammad Baazmool (may Allaah preserve him) says: There is no specified number of rak’ats to pray on jum’ah day (i.e. specified number of Rak’ats after one enters the masjid and before the khutbah), rather what is established is that the number of rak’ats is unrestricted due to the Hadeeth reported by Imaam Muslim (rahimahullaah) in Sahih Muslim- that whoever takes a bath on the day of jum’ah and prays what is decreed for him (i.e. before khutbah begins), keeps quiet until the khutbah finishes, and prays (i.e. with the Imaam), he will be forgiven (i.e. minor sins) from that day of jum’ah to the next Jum’ah….[Ref 1]

After Jum’ah prayer, one prays either two rak’ats [Ref2] or four Rak’ats [Ref 3]

[Ref 1: For further details, see texts of hadeeth in Sahih Muslim Number 857 and the speech of Sh Muhammad Baazmool in [    بغية المتطوع page 121 onwards]

[Ref 2: Hadeeth in Sunan Abu Dawud Number 1/70 & declared authentic by Imaam Albaani (rahimahullaah)]

[Ref 3: Hadeeth reported by Imaam Muslim Number 881]

 

Amazing State of Affairs! When Murderer Does Not Know Why He (She) Committed The Act

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq'.

Abu Huraira reported Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) as saying: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, a time would come when the murderer would not know why he has committed the murder, and the victim would not know why he has been killed.
