Reflections on some statements of Al-Allamah Rabee Bin Hadi Al-Mad’khali [104]

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

و والله لأن أخر من السماء إلى الأرض أهون علي من أكذب على الله أو على
مسلم.
و والله لأن أخر من السماء فأموت ألف مرة أهون على من أن أخون أحدا ولو
كافرا فضلا عن مسلم وأهون علي من أخل بأمانة النقل والعلم

Al-Allamah Rabee Bin Hadi Al-Mad’khali, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

And by Allah! Falling from the sky to the earth is easier (lesser in severity) for me than lying about Allah or a Muslim. And by Allah! Falling from the sky and dying a thousand times is easier (lesser in severity) for me than deceiving anyone (or acting treacherously towards them), even if he is an unbeliever, let alone a Muslim. And it is easier (lesser in severity) for me than failing to fulfil a trust with regards to transmitting (reports) and knowledge (i.e. lesser in severity for me than twisting statements, misconstruing etc).  [Paraphrased]

Al-Had Al-Fasil 44

May Allah bless the knowledge and life of a younger brother of mine – a promising future teacher of ours InShaAllah- who shared this Fa’idah.
