The Email Shaykh a ”Deluded Hajoori Fanatic” – no response of any substance to this 61 days and counting…

Email Shaykh- Hajoori Deluded Fanatic, no response to this in substance: http://salaficentre.com/2013/08/email-shaykh-the-end-to-delusions-and-lying-has-finally-come/

The shameless slanderer, persistent defender of Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi and Seeker of False Testimony, has had 61 days (and counting) to repent… but chose to persist upon blatant falsehood.

May Allaah guide him or protect us from his foolish, shameless, irrational and idiotic behaviour…This indeed is not befitting a man over the age of 40!

Scholarly Clarification [Statement utilized by hizbiyyoon to protect figureheads of bidah]

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

Chapter: The prohibition of reviling the deceased without right or a legitimate (overriding) benefit  

The deceased—that is the deceased amongst the Muslims (i.e. in general they are not to be reviled).  As for a disbeliever there is no sanctity for him except if reviling him will harm those of his relatives who are alive, then he is not reviled.  And if there is no harm (in reviling him), then he has no sanctity and this is the meaning of the statement of the author [i.e. Imaam Nawawi]’’Without Right;’’  because we have a right to revile those dead disbelievers, who harmed the Muslims, fought against them and strove to corrupt their religion.

‘Or (without) a legitimate (overriding) benefit;’’ (i.e. not to revile the dead unless there is a legitimate overriding benefit in doing so); such as when this deceased person was a person of innovation and he has already disseminated it (i.e. his innovation) and disseminated it amongst the people, so here there is a benefit to revile him, warn against him and his path, so that the people are not mislead by him. [Sharh Riyaadus Saaliheen 6/230 of Imaam Muhammad Bin Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen] http://www.sahab.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=124263// <![CDATA

 

 

 

[3]Acquaintance with some of the scholars of the Salaf and their books–Al-Beekandiy

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

He is Muhammad Ibn Salaam Ibn Al-Farj Abu Abdillaah Al-Beekandiy.  He was born in the year 161AH and his death date was on Sunday 8th in the month of Safar 225AH.  He was a Shaikh of (Imaam) Bukhaari and he narrated from him in his Saheeh (i.e. Saheeh Al-Bukhaari).  He was from those given comprehension in knowledge and he was from the Imaams of the Athar (i.e. possessors’ of knowledge of the ahaadeeth and the narrations of the Sahaabah).

Muhammad Ibn Ahmad An-Najjaar (rahimahullaah) said: ”Ibn Salaam had authorships in every sphere of knowledge (i.e. knowledge of the sharia).”

Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) mentioned his (Ibn Salaam’s) Book [titled: As-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah] in Al-Fataawaa Al-Kubraa 5/4140].   Shaikh Abdus Salaam Burgess (rahimahullaah) stated that Ibn Salaam’s biography can be found in [سيراعلام نبلاء10/656]

An Amazing Story about Generosity

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

Al Haafidh ibn Rajab mentioned in the commentary of the Tabaqaat Al Hanaabila (1/196) in the biography of Al Qaadi Abi Bakr Muhammad Abdul Al Baaqi Al Bazzaz who died in the year 535 from the migration of the Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessing be upon him.  Shaikh Saalih Abu Al Qaasim Al Khazaz Al Bagdadi said, ”I heard Al Qaadi Abi Bakr Muhammad Abdul Al Baaqi Al Bazzaz Al Ansaari say: I used to live in the vicinity of Mecca, may Allaah the Exalted protect it, so one day I was stricken with severe hunger and I did not find anything to fight against this hunger. So I found a bag made from silk, tied with a tassel that was also made from silk, so I grabbed it and took it to my house. When I unfasten it I found in it a necklace made from pearl such that I had not seen the like of it before. So when I exited my house I saw an old man that was seeking this bag. With him was a torn rag containing five hundred dinar and he was saying, ‘’this is for the one who returns to me the bag containing the pearls.” So I said, ‘’I am in need, I am hungry, so I will take this money and benefit from it and return to him the bag.’’  So I said to him, ‘’Come to me’’, so I took him and brought him to my home. So he gave me the description of the bag, and the description of the tassel, and the description of the pearls along with their number, and the description of the thread that fasten it. So I removed it from the bag and gave it to him, so he gave me the five hundred dinar, but I did not take it. Then I said to him, ‘’It is incumbent upon me to return this to you and I will not take any reward for it.” He said to me, ‘’you must take it’’, and he persisted in this, but I would not take it from him so he left me and went about his way.

As for me, I didn’t have anything so I left Mecca and began sailing in the sea. So the ship tore apart and everyone aboard it drowned and their wealth was destroyed. I was saved by holding onto a piece of the ship. So I remained for a time period in the sea not knowing where I was going. I then arrived at an island that was inhabited by people. I sat in some of the masjids and the people heard me reading, and there did not remain anyone on the island except that he came to me and said, ‘’Teach me the Qur’aan’’, so I acquired from the people a lot of wealth. Then I saw in the masjid some paper from a Mushaf, so I took it and began to read it. They said to me, ‘’Do you have good handwriting?’’, I said, ‘’yes.’’ So they said, ‘’Teach me handwriting.’’ So they came to me with their children from amongst the small kids and the young men and I used to teach them. I acquired from this also, a lot of wealth.

After this they said to me, ‘’We have a young orphan girl who has some things from the dunya, (worldly wealth) we would like for you to marry her.  I refused, but they said, ‘’It is a must!’’ And they made this incumbent upon me, so I agreed. After they married her to me, I turned my glance toward her and I found that exact same necklace hanging around her neck! At this time I did not busy myself with anything except staring at this necklace. So they said to me, ‘’Oh Sheik! You have broken this young orphan girl’s heart by looking at this necklace, and you have not even looked at her. So I relayed to them the story of the necklace. So they screamed and yelled out, ‘’There is no deity worthy of worship except Allaahu Akbar, until it reached everyone on the island. So I said, ‘’What is with you?’’ They said, ‘’The old man that took the necklace from you is the father of this young girl.’’ He used to say, ‘’I have not found in the dunya (world) a Muslim (what is meant here is a trustworthy, kind hearted, one who knows the rights of found property) except the one who returned to me this necklace.’’ And he used to make dua (supplication) saying, ‘’Oh ALLAH, join me and him together so that I may marry him to my daughter’’, and now it has happened. So I remained with her for a time period and I was provided with two sons by her. Then she passed away, so I inherited the necklace, me and my two sons. Then my two sons died, therefore the necklace became mine. So I sold the necklace for one hundred thousand dinar, and the money that you see me with now is what is left over from that money.

What is Al-Wara [Apprehensive Fear]?

Ibraaheem Ibn Ad’ham [rahimahullaah] said: Al-Wara [apprehensive fear] is to abandon every doubtful matter.  And abandoning that which does not concern you is to abandon extra things [you are not in need of].”


[Quoted by Shaikh Raslaan in Fadlul Ilm page: 276]

 

An Excellent Example for the youth–Zadhaan (rahimahullaah)

Al-Hafiz al-Dhahabi mentions in his biography of Zadhaan: Ibn Adiyy said: ‘He repented at the hands of Abd Allaah ibn Mas’ood.’  On the authority of Abu Haashim al-Rummaani who said: Zadhaan said: ‘I was a youth with a very beautiful voice and use to play the lute very well.  I was with my companion, and we had with us some wine.  I was singing, so when Ibn Mas’ood passed by, he turned over the vessel of wine spilling it on the ground and then broke the lute and said: ‘Young man, if only your beautiful voice could be heard reciting the Qur’aan.’ So he placed his scarf over his head and continued on his way.  I said to my companions: ‘who was that?’ They answered: Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ood the companion of the Messenger of Allaah.’  The desire to repent entered my heart; I rushed to catch up with him crying and took him by his thowb.  Ibn Mas’ood turned and hugged me and said: ‘I welcome the one whom Allaah loves. Sit down.’ He then took out a date gave it to me.’

Ibn Qudaamah Al-Maqdisi, after mentioning the repentance of Zadhaan in Kitaab Al-Tawwaabeen (The Book of the repenters), states: ‘So he repented to Allaah (Azza Wa-Jal) for his sins, and afterward, he was constantly in the company of Ibn Mas’ood.  He learned the Qur’aan and a great deal of knowledge until becoming an Imaam.  He narrated from Ibn Mas’ood, Salmaan and others.

Beneficial Knowledge–Imaam Ibn Rajab

Imaam Ibnu Rajab (rahimahullah) said:

“Beneficial knowledge is the precise text of the Book and the Sunnah and an understanding of their meanings. Attached to this are the narrations of the meanings of the Qur’aan and the Hadeeth from the Sahaabah, the Taabi’een and their followers, and statements narrated from them in the affairs of Halaal, Haraam, Zuhd, Raqaa-iq, information on affairs of knowledge and other than that. Firstly one should strive to distinguish between its authentic and unauthentic. Secondly, he then strives to restrict him/herself to its meanings and gain understanding if it. And in this there is sufficiency for the one who understands and a preoccupation for the one who has a concern for beneficial knowledge and being preoccupied with it.

The One who Exalts Himself–Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah

Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) said:

”Have you not seen that the one who exalts himself with falsehood wishes to give victory to everything he says, even if it is wrong” [Majmoo Al-Fataawaa: 10/292]
