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.

Our Salaf–They did not hasten to give verdicts

Abu khaythama narrated in kitaab al-ilm with a chain of transmission going back to Abdur-Rahmaan ibn Bishr Al-Azraq that two men came in from the doors of kinda whilst Abu Mas’ood Al-Ansaari was sitting in a gathering–(so) one of them (.i.e. one of the two men) said: “Is any man here to judge between us?” A man from the gathering said: “I can.” So Abu Mas’ ood got hold of a handful of pebbles and hit him with them. Thereafter he said to him:”Indeed it used to be hated that a person should hasten to give a verdict.

Shaikh Muhammad Amaan on the Saudi State

Shaikh Muhammand Amaan Al-Jaami (rahimahullah ) said:

“We neither live in this country under parliamentary majority rule in which is found numerous partisan parties nor do we live under a dictator who rules by the sword; neither are we ruled by an individual nor by a group…..we are ruled by the Laws of Allaah. The rulers of this country are only considered to be authorities who implement (the Islamic laws) and they are not considered to be those who have authority over the Islamic laws. There cannot be found among us those who have authority over the Islamic law and its existence is not permissible; rather it is not permissible to find among the muslims those who have authority over the Islamic laws–who legislate alongside Allaah. We rule by the laws of Allaah in this country and this is something well known, even to the man who works in the market…

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]

 

 

Advise to the Muslims in Britain, in Light of Recent Events in London

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

This is a portion from my conversation today with shaykhunaa (our shaykh), waalidunaa (our father) in Misr (Egypt), Hasan Abdul-Wahhaab Marzouq Al-Bannaa (May Allah preserve him and his family upon good).

I asked shaykhunaa a question pertaining to the recent unfortunate events which have occured in London, UK; in regards to two individuals killing an unarmed British soldier in broad daylight in the streets of London. Two individuals whom the media says are Muslims, and Allah is the Most Knowledgeable of all affairs. I informed shaykhunaa that one of the individuals is captured on video justifying what was done by using quotes from Allah’s book such as, “eye for eye and tooth for tooth”. I asked shaykhunaa, what is our position and what should we do in
regards to this unfortunate event?

Shaykhunaa, Hasan Al-Bannaa (may Allah preserve him upon good) said, it is a must that the believers unite in opposition to this dreadful event. The believers must come together and work together in opposing and rejecting this corrupt methodology.

These individuals speak in regards to this and that. They base their speech upon this and that, however, they do not understand Islaam correctly and are ignorant about correct Islaam. For people say the religion of Islaam is this or is that. Claims of the speech must be confirmed from what has been documented. It is obligatory that one affirms his speech upon that which is correct. The one who does this (speaking without true understanding) commits an error which is in opposition of the foundation of the religion and its branches. They hold on to these ideologies by saying this and that. They intend to harm the Salafis with this. They are in clear opposition of the foundation of the religion. They strive to harm and bring shame to the religion.

Shaykhunaa added that our brothers in Britain are to be aided and shown support; he mentioned Hasan As-Soomaali and Abu Khadeejah. They are aware of what is taking place.

This conversation occurred on May 30th, 2013; in correspondence to the Islaamic calendar date of 20th of Rajab, 1434.

[5] The Creed of the Saudi Kings

The reaction of King ‘Abdul-‘Azeez as-Su’ood upon being praised in lines of poetry.

Once, during one of King ‘Abdul-‘Azeez as-Su’ood’s (rahimahullaah) trips to the town of al-Kharj (7th of Dhul-Hijjah 1363AH -approx: 23rd November 1944CE) a poet from the people of Najd entered upon him. In his hand was a poem he had written, and so he sought permission from the King to read it out. He began: You are our hope and in you is hope… Upon hearing this King ‘Abdul-‘Azeez called out in rejection and glanced across the gathering to Shaykh Hamad al-Jaasir, saying, “O Ibn Jaasir, take this man and teach him some Tawheed!” [Source: Min Hayaatil-Malik ‘Abdil-‘Azeez, pg.71]
