Our Salaf: A Reminder to the Pseudo scholars and hasty youth

Abu Khaythama narrated to us, (saying): Fadl Ibn Dukayn related to us, (saying): Sufyaan informed us from yahyah Ibn Saeed who said: ‘’I heard Al-Qaasim Ibn Muhammad say: ‘’A person lives his (whole) life being ignorant is better for him than giving fataawaa without knowledge.’’ –

Our Salaf: They hated being raised beyound what they believed was their rightful status

Abu Khaythama narrated to us, (saying): Jareer narrated to us from Al-a’mash from Mas’ood Ibn Maalik who said: ”Ali Ibnul Husain said to me, ”Are you able to make me meet with Saeed Ibn Jubayr?”  I said: ”What need do you have of him?”  He said: ”I want to ask him about some affairs.  Indeed, the people commend us for that which we do not possess.” ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Our Salaf–The seeker of knowledge

On the authority of Zur Bin Hubaish who said: I came to Sufyaan Bin Assaal Al-Muraadee so he said to (me): ‘’What have you come for?’’ So I said: ‘’To seek knowledge’’; so he said: ‘’Indeed the angels lower their wings for the one seeking knowledge due to being pleased with what he seeks.”

Our Salaf–look at this type of humility!

Abu khaythama (rahimahullaah) reported in Kitaabul Ilm with a chain of transmission going back to Hasan al-Basri, who said: ” When a man sits amongst the people and they consider him to be ignorant even though he is not, then this is the Muslim who possesses  understanding in truth.

A Precise word against the decietful hizbiyyoon

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

 

Al-Allaamah Ubaid Bin Abdillaah Al-Jaabiriy (may Allaah preserve him and prolong his life upon goodness) said: ”The one who knows of the mistake (of a person) and it is manifest to him, then it is not allowed for him to blindly follow a scholar to whom the affair (i.e. the mistake) is hidden……the (verdicts of the scholars based on their striving to reach the correct positions in affairs that require investigation) are not infallible, therefore it is not permissible to adopt (such verdicts) as a methodology (unrestrictedly).  [For further details, see: Al-Haddul Faasil Bayna Mu-aamalati Ahlul Sunnah Wa Ahlul Baatil: page: 43]


Reader: The above is a simple and precise eye opener that unveils the deceitful games of the Hizbiyyoon–those who hide behind the general  unexplained statements of some of the upright scholars in order to divert attention from the specific knowledge based proofs established against their deviated figureheads, such as Maribi, Halabi, Maghraawi and other innovators.  We seek Allaah’s protection from the deceit and evil games of the hizbiyyoon.

 

Yusuf Qaradaawi–A figurehead of bidah

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Our noble brothers at salafipublications compiled a series of detailed refutations against Qaradaawee. See the following articles at www.salafipublications.com

May Allaah protect the ummah from the falsehood of this open caller to bidah and falsehood

 

Imaam Awzaa’ee–A person does not innovate except….

Imaam Al-Awzaa’ee (rahimahullaah) said:

”A man does not innovate (in the religion) except that he is deprived of his wara (i.e. that fear of Allaah keeping him away from doubtful matters or affairs he fears may ruin his afterlife)” [Siyar 7/125]

 

 

The levels of the scholars–A trial for the emotional and hasty youth!

Imaam Ibn Hibbaan reported in Al-Majrooheen from Amr Ibn Muhammad An-Naaqib that he heard a man asking Imaam Wakee Ibn Jarraah a question, saying: ”Do you know the hadeeth of Sa-eed Ibn Ubaid At-Tanaaqosee transmitted on the authority of Shabi, about a man who performed hajj for another person and then perform hajj for himself?”  Imaam Wakee asked him, saying: ”Who narrated the Hadeeth?” He said: ”It was narrated by Wahb Ibn Ismaa-eel.”  So Imaam Wakee said: ”Wahb is a righteous man, but the affair of hadeeth is dependent on knowledge of the condition of its narrators and this has its men.” [End of Quote: This incident was related by Shaikh Abdullaah Bukhaari in At-Taleeqaat Ar-Radiyyah alal Mandhoomah Al-Bayqooniyyah Lesson 2]

Therefore, it is important that we return to the scholars in order to place everyone in their rightful place.  Inshaa-Allaah, this is the safeguard from exaggeration or falling short in this affair.  And Allaah knows best.

This is not from knowledge–Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaareee

In The Naame of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari (may Allaah preserve him) said:

”There is nothing in the knowledge [of the sharee’ah related to] foolishness, recklessness, lying, insult and its likes from the manners of the people of oppression and desires; rather knowledge is clarification of the truth and disapproval of falsehood.   Imaam Al-Awzaa-ee (rahimahullaah) said: ”Knowledge is what the companions of Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam) came with, and what a single one of them did not come with is not knowledge.” [Al-Maqaalaat shar-iyyah: page: 47]
