Imaam Tirmidhi’s (rahimahullaah) Rulings on Ahaadeeth [Brief comment by Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadi]

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

Shaikh Muhammed ibn Haadee (may Allaah preserve him) was asked whether the ruling of at-Tirmidhee when he makes a hadeeth “Saheeh” can be relied up. He answered: At-Tirmidhee’s rulings of Saheeh upon a hadeeth are stronger than his Hasan rulings. Also, he has been described as somewhat lenient. So when looking at Imaam at-Tirmidhee one should look to see who agrees with him from the well-known and bonafide scholars of hadeeth. [Source: https://twitter.com/AbuKhadeejahSP]

Question:

Our Shaykh, the question is: Here in the west, particularly in America, Canada, and Britain, we have well-known Salafee Masaajid, and centers; classes and lectures are held therein with some of the students of knowledge and visiting scholars whenever possible. When this is the case, is it okay for the women who live near to these Salafee centers to establish Da’wah groups distinct from the centers and Masaajid in their areas, in which the people are gathered upon good?

And what is your advice to the women who are the founders of these organizations?

Answer:

It is incumbent that they ask the men and not suffice with their (own) knowledge; because the knowledge of the women is deficient. They have to ask the men. When she has a problem then she must ask (the men) and when there is a matter which is common and easy which everyone knows, then she can speak regarding it. As for in cases of necessity in which there is a question then she is to ask a Shaykh and take from him; either by way of the telephone or when a Shaykh comes to them then she can ask him. The women may have distinct lessons, but it is  a must that scholars supervise them, even if by way of the telephone. And they are to ask them.

However, the woman is not to suffice with herself; because the men have learned and are able to study and travel to the lands and that is not easy for the women. So it is a MUST that she refer to the men.

Perhaps she may say: “I am a Shaykhah!” Huh? You are a Shaykhah? You have studied?
You are (but) a student; a student of knowledge. Allaahul-Musta’aan. May Allaah bless you and may Allaah reward you with good.
Questioner:

May Allaah give you life; may Allaah reward you, our Shaykh.

Shaykh Adds:
The Prophet (upon him be prayers and peace) said: “Convey from me, even if only one verse.” The woman may convey. If you know a verse; you understand it and you act upon it, then mention it to the people. Similarly for the woman; she may speak with it to the people.
HOWEVER, sitting and giving lessons all day and the people coming to her, she does not have the ability to do this. She has other more important matters; (such as) the children; the home; her husband; and so on. They are affairs which every woman knows their value. The role of the woman is great in the cultivation of the children; and Islaam has given her a great station; and that is remaining within the home; and she is (therein) an Ameerah! She cultivates the children upon good. However, she is not like the European woman, doing whatever she wants; no. All of it is within the limits of the Sharee’ah. And may Allaah bless you and reward you with good.

Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah sent this Message via WhatsApp [Beautiful Dars at Shaikh Rabee’s House]

Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah (ma Allaah preserve him) wrote:

A large body of brothers here at Shaikh Rabee’s house from the UK, USA, Canada etc.  Beautiful Dars by the Shaikh in the topic of Imaan. Sh. Rabee spoke about the means of strengthening Imaan: Reciting the Qur’aan, righteous deeds and Allaah’s remembrance.  Shaikh Rabee stated the aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah is that Imaan is speech & action, it increases and decreases. Then he refuted the Murji’ah. He went on to establish that the affairs are in the Hands of Allaah and His Decree, so a person relies upon Allaah, fully.

Sh. Rabee said that the believer knows the affairs are decreed by Allaah so he knows no one can harm him or benefit him except by His Decree. Sh. Rabee mentioned the importance of salaah and sadaqah. Prayer upon the Sunnah of the Prophet & Sadaqa upon the generosity of the Prophet.

Sh. Rabee stated that these are the means of strengthening Imaan. And its opposite is abandonment of righteous deeds & commission of sins. Messenger said: If you partake in interest, hold on to the tails of cattle, satisfied with cultivation of the earth & abandon jihad… The Prophet continued: “Then Allaah will send down upon them humiliation & He will not remove it till you return back to your Deen.” Allaah stated: “If you aid Allaah’s deen, Allaah will aid you..” So it is not the greatness of numbers because the Companions were not many. Shaikh Rabee continued: Rather the Sahaabah were small in number yet Allaah gave them victory over their adversaries from the Romans & Persians. Sh. Rabee: That victory was due to their Imaan, their aqeedah, their manhaj, their piety. So Allaah made them victorious.

The Messenger mentioned a time when the disbelievers will take from the Muslim lands just like the guests take from the food of the host. And the Messenger explained that this is not due to the small number of Muslims in that time, rather they will be many in number, but… The Messenger cont’d: The Muslims will be like the scum carried by the flood water (even though they will great in number). Shaikh Rabee stated: This is the state of many of the Muslims today, they are like the scum carried by the flood water.  So upon you is steadfastness upon the Deen, to hold to the truth and sincerity and righteous deeds – to strengthen your Imaan. Sh. Rabee ended with supplicating to Allaah to give us steadfastness upon the Sunnah and to grant us success in that which pleases Allaah. May Allaah reward the Shaykh, preserve him, protect him and make him a cause of benefit for the ummah. Ameen.

Baarakallaahufeekum.

 

 

Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah informs of Mourad Al-Jazaa-iri [Email Shaykh (Hajoori Fanatic)]

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Brotherhood, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Hadaadis, Refutations, Scholars of Islam.

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

The brothers at Al-Markaz As-Salafi (Manchester) complained to Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah when Mourad became adamant in his oppressive behaviour, extremism, arrogance, exaggerations, false defence of the hajaawira, doubts and attacks against some of the Mashaayikh; so Ustaadh (may Allaah preserve him) replied, saying:

I pray you are well and in strength of Imaan, may Allāh preserve you upon the Sunnah.

Muraad’s call is to himself – he uses the veil of Salafiyyah and radd upon the Mukhaalif as his claim to be a vanguard of Salafiyyah, but he is (in reality) affected by a type of extremism that is contrary to the correct understanding of the principles of Salafiyyah– and this goes back some years.

He is a conspiracist who believes he has ‘ability and skills’ that no one in the UK possesses. He operates with a ‘cloak and dagger’ manhaj–if he sees even a crack where he can cause discord (even in affairs of tolerated ijtihaad), he turns it into a huge fitnah. I truly believe he is an ignorant loud-mouth who likes attention, good or bad (he doesn’t mind). I also believe, based upon his actions that he lacks sincerity. I remember his ignorance coming to the surface when he accused SPubs of wahdatul-adyaan several years ago. Tawbah? Not a chance! – He doesn’t know the meaning of what it means to be humble!

I believe I’ve known him longer than all of you – Allaah knows best– from Jimas days. I can truly say that this man is a person who has rancour and hatred for anyone who does not give him limelight, good or bad–as long as he is at the centre of attention. Swallowing his pride is close to impossible! This is how he works: Step 1: Prove that he’s a vanguard and protector of the da’wah – how? Refute the Shi’ah, the soofees, HT, and the Hizbees (Turaath etc). Step 2: Use that as the stage to gather youth around him. Step 3: Once these youth are convinced that Muraad is the “true” defender of salafiyyah, he informs them of the Salafis who are “really under cover hizbees” against whom he has “hidden files” that one day he will expose for the world to see! Step 4: Get these youth to start the campaign. Step 5: Play the victim, “I am calling to the truth and these people don’t want it, so they oppose me” – so his campaign goes into high gear, and so on.

So best thing, tell the people he’s an ignoramus who feigns knowledge and uses his enmity against the Ahlul-Bid’ah as a launch-pad against the Salafis – same as the Haddaadiyyah! Not a single Salafi student of knowledge in the UK [i.e. those in the various Maraakiz known for their lessons, dawah efforts and connection with the scholars] has been with this foolish man for many years! That says a lot itself!

Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Madkhali (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

”Warn against Mourad Jaza’iree from Manchester: That he speaks ill of Shaikh Ubaid & Shaikh Bukhaaree & defends Hajooree.”

 

[2] [Repelling the lies of Ali Halabi and his misguided party]

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Ali Hassan Al Halabi, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam.

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

These are testimonies of the truthful and righteous Imaams of the Sunnah, which can neither be affected by the slanders of the sinful ones nor by the lies of the evil ones, such as the likes of Ali Al-Halabi—the ignoramus—and his misguided party.  How many fabrications and lies do they have against Ahlus Sunnah in general and against Shaikh Rabee in particular!  And from those (fabrications and lies of theirs ) is that they accuse Shaikh Rabee of ignorance, self-contradictory, having changes in his (Manhaj) and other lies which they have perpetrated upon the path of the people of desires.  When they became unable to confront the clear proofs and manifest evidences, they resorted to these despicable and disgraceful paths.  By Allaah they have lied, for indeed the senior scholars have testified a lot for Shaikh Rabee that he is a possessor of knowledge and that he is well grounded in it; and that he is an upright person; steadfast; an aider of the Salafi Creed and a defender of those who call to the Salafi Creed; and that he is a person who repels falsehood and its people with manifest evidences.

The writer (may Allaah preserve him) said:

Our Shaikh Rabee has been praised by his teachers and brothers; they have described him with great and noble characteristics, and from those descriptions is that he upon the path of the pious predecessors – in creed and action.

 

 

His Shaikh, Al-Allaamah Ubaidullaah Ar-Rahmaani Al-Mubaarakfooree (rahimahullah) said: “He (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) has sat and conversed with me regarding the affairs of knowledge. He also came to Mubaarakfoor several times and met me in my house, and indeed I found him to be in possession of abundant knowledge and great virtue–a person possessing sound understanding and an upright nature upon the path of the pious predecessors (may Allaah be pleased with them) in creed and action; a follower of the Book and the Sunnah; a supporter and defender  of the Book and Sunnah–harsh against the people of innovations and desires, and a rebutter of the blind followers…..up until the Shaikh Al-Mubaarakfooree said: ‘’May Allaah bless him (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) in his knowledge and gratify the Muslims with a long life span for him.

 
Al-Allaamah Abdul-Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah)

When one of the students of knowledge said to Al-Allaamah Abdul-Azeez Bin Baaz: ‘’O Shaikh! Shaikh Rabee speaks ill of such and such, and he speaks ill of the callers;” so Al-Allaamah Bin Baaz replied to him, saying: ‘’Fear Allaah, the man (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) is an Imaam in the Sunnah.”
Al-Allaamah Bin Baaz also said: “Shaikh Rabee is from the best of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa’ah and it is well known that he is from Ahlus Sunnah. His writings and statements are well known.

 

 

 

Shaikh Rabee’s Shaikh Al-Allaamah Ahmad Bin Yahyah An-Najmi (rahimahullaah) said: ‘’Shaikh Rabee is a mujaahid and may Allaah reward him. I am jealous of him due to his jihaad in spreading the Sunnah and in subduing bidah and its people, and due to his concern for the Sunnah and its dissemination in every way he is able….

 

 

Al-Allaamah Muhammad Bin Abdullaah As-Subayyil (rahimahullah) said: His (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) is the Salafi creed and he is from the best of the people, and none speaks against him except a person of desires and illegal partisanship.

 
Al Allaamah Muhammad Bin Saalih al Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) said: Shaikh Rabee is from the scholars of the Sunnah and the people of good. His creed is sound and his Manhaj is upright.

 
Al Allaamah Muqbil Bin Haadi al Waadi’ee (rahimahullaah) said: Shaikh Rabee is a sign from the signs of Allaah with regards to his (i.e. Shaikh Rabee’s) knowledge about the people of illegal partisanship; but not like the Iranian signs–the Dajjaaleen (i.e. the liars/imposters of the iranian shee-ah raafidah with their claims to supreme religious leadership despite being callers to major shirk–worship of the dead, graves, shrines, tombs; cursing the companions and other filthy beliefs)

Reminder:

In 2002 Brixton Admin clung to the Jordanians, whilst they defended the Ikhwaani innovator Al-Maribi.  Once again Brixton Admin are openly defending Ali Al-Halabi after he innovated in the Religion of Allaah (The Most High).  The articles on this link http://salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=21&Topic=468 will show the reader the affair of Brixton’s Admin from the early days.  On the other hand, the article is enough as a warning to all of us, regarding the danger of persisting upon falsehood and turning away from truth after clarification is given to distinguish between the two.

Finally, see this article as a reminder http://salaficentre.com/2013/10/5-o-you-who-believe-answer-allaah-and-his-messenger/ and may Allaah return Brixton to the truth and free their hearts from the traps of the innovators– Ali Halabi, Abul Hasan Al-Maribi and Muhammad Al-Maghraawi.

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

 

 

 

A specific question about women study circles–Al’Allaamah Ubaid Al-Jaabiri

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Announcements, Articles, Brotherhood, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Family & Women, Fatawa-Rulings, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

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

All praise is due to Allaah. We thank Him (The Most High) for protecting us from many of the trials—the trials of Shubuhaaat and Shahawaat. The Salafiyyoon of Al-Markaz As-Salafi in particular must thank Allaah (The Most High) for granting them the Tawfeeq to recognize the truth in many of the affairs of the Salafiyyah Dawah. Therefore, we should be mindful of self-amazement, boastfulness and stubbornness when truth reaches us, because our hearts are not in our control. Likewise, it is incumbent upon us to spread truth with wisdom, fine admonition and firmness after recognizing and acting upon it.  Neither should we fear the blame of the blamers nor should we give any attention to anyone who employ tricks and ambiguity in order to evade the clear verdicts of the scholars.  Al-Allaamah Ubaid Al-Jaabiri (may Allaah preserve him) was asked a specific question from Manchester via Ustaadh Uwais Taweel (may Allaah preserve him) about those who are worthy of teaching Salafiyyah….

Question

Is it better for us to attend the masjid and seek ilm and learn from the tullaab, or learn in our houses with sisters, even though they may not have a background in knowledge.

Answer

Shaykh said: the students of knowledge are known to be Students of knowledge and steadfast upon that (Salafi) then take knowledge from the students of knowledge. As for the sisters, then there is no harm in the sisters teaching as long as the sister has studied in Umm Al- Quraa or an establishment and studied with scholars, then it’s no harm in her teaching.

So Ustaadh Uwais (may Allaah preserve him) continued and asked “what happens if she hasn’t studied?”

So the Shaykh (may Allaah preserve him) said “La (no). Rather she should go to the tullaab the students of knowledge who are well known. But no harm if she has studied in Umm al Qura or with the people of knowledge.”  See link:  http://www.learnaboutislam.co.uk/audio/uways-at-taweel/uways-at-taweel-talk-2.mp3 [Question starts after 20 Mins—the question was asked specifically to remove all doubts people may seek to propagate in this affair through ambiguous and general statements.
