Shaikh Fawzaan says: This is what they want apparently [i.e. differing and excusing one another in Issues of Aqeedah] and this is not permissible!

Question:

This questioner says: Assalaamu akaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, some callers put forward a principle, they say that indeed it (brings about) unity: “We unite upon that which we agree and pardon each other in that which we disagree in.”

Answer:

If this agreement is (already) in Aqeedah, then yes (we can excuse each other in other issues besides Aqeedah) as differing may occur in the subsidiary issues. The Mujtahid’s (ijtihaad) is taken when he’s correct and (the ijtihad) is abandoned if he opposes what is correct. So if there is agreement on the Aqeedah and the differing is only in Fiqh and subsidiary issues then (this affair is looked at from another) an angle. [1]

However if this differing is in Aqeedah, then upon what can we agree?! We cannot agree on anything. This is what they want apparently (i.e. excuse one another in Aqeedah issues) and this is not permissible. [2]

[1] Murad Al-Jazaa’iri and Abu Usaamah- [Two Obstinate Followers and Shelterers of Ahlul BIdah] – And the Verdict of Shaikh Rabee and Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi Against Them

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

The Followers of a Mubtadi

Al-Allaamah Zayd Bin Haadi al-Madhali (rahimahullaah) said:

The people of desires and misguidance are (categorized into) those who are followed and those who follow. Indeed, those who are followed are the ones who set up the various principles of innovation and call to their innovation and misguidance, and they will carry their burden of sins and the burden of the sins of those whom they misguided without knowledge, as it is clearly stated in the Qur’aan and the Sunnah.  As for the followers of a leader from amongst the people of desires, then in most cases they are of two categories:

The First Category: Those who possess knowledge, but they harbour evil intentions. So they yield to Satan, desires and the urge of the evil soul. They follow the people of misguidance and oppose the callers to guidance (in that which) Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) with.

The Second Category: Their share of knowledge is little, so the people of desires take advantage of them and they become (part) of their group. They convince them that what they call them to is the manifest truth and that what their opponents are upon is falsehood. And they convey to them a huge (number) of affairs that resemble the truth but are falsehood in reality, in order to deceive them and submerge them into misguidance.  [1] End of quote

So here we have both Murad and Goldie as staunch, persistent and vile shelterers of Ahlul Bidah. Murad utilizes every opportunity to defend Hajoori Al-haddaadi Al-Mubtadi and attacks those who unveil Al-Hajoori’s bidah and misguidance. On the other hand, Abu Usaamah is well known for his defense of Ali Al-Halabi Al-Murji al-Mubtadi and his attacks against Salafiyyoon.

And what is amazing is that even though Murad and Goldie are at loggerheads due to their divergent paths of misguidance, however the two innovators they shelter and defend (Al-Halabi and Al-hajoori) are united against the Mashaayikh, such as Shaikh Ubaid, Shaikh Rabee, Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi, Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadi, Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari and others. Rather Ali Al-Halabi al-Murji al-Mubtadi paid a visit to Yahya al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi al-Mubtadi. [2]

So these two innovators unite against the Mashaayikh of Ahlus Sunnah and their two followers (Goldie and Murad) are from the most zealous and obstinate in their defense of these two innovators. Murad and Goldie do the same dirty job, but they are at loggerheads. Murad hates Goldie because he believes that Goldie is a Hizbi and upon Tamyee, but on the other hand he is upon the path of Yahya Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi. Al-Halabi, Goldie, Al-Hajoori and Murad are all upon misguidance and that is why Shaikh Rabee (may Allaah preserve him) and Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi 9rahimahullaah) have both issued their verdicts.

Shaikh Rabee (may Allaah preserve him) said: Al-Hajoori is more evil than the Haddaadiyyah and the ideas of the Kharijites have penetrated him and his followers. [3]

The Shaikh said about Murad Al-Jazaa’iri: ‘’Warn against Mourad Jaza’iree from Manchester: That he speaks ill of Shaikh Ubaid & Shaikh Bukhaaree & defends Hajooree.’’ [4]

As for Ali Al-Halabi, his affair is well known, for he innovated before Al-Hajoori and was declared a Mubtadi by Shaikh Rabee and others.

As for Abu Usama is not only well known for defending Al-Halabi Al-Murji Al-Mubtadi, but he is also well known for defending Abul Hasan Al-Maribi Al-Ikhwaani al-Mubtadi. Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi (rahimahullaah) was asked about Goldie:

Question: “O Shaykh Ahmad we have with us in America a man called Abu Usaamah who is considered to be from the Du’aat, he aids and supports Abul-Hasan and he calls some noble Salafi brothers ghulaat (extremists), muqallidah (blind followers), and muhqiboon (the people whose religion is the religion of the one they blindly follow), so what is the legislated position from this man and how should we deal with him?

Response:

موقفكم منه كموقفكم من أهل البدعة , أعرض عنه و اتركه

“Your position with him is the same as your position with the People of Innovation. Turn away from him and abandon him. [5]

And to this day the misguided and obstinate shelter of Al-Halabi (Goldie) and the misguided and obstinate shelterer of Al-Hajoor (Murad) have both continued upon their compound ignorance and blatant misguidance. So we leave them with the following statements of the Salaf as a reminder, so that the reader realizes the severity of what Murad and Goldie are upon. Murad supports and elevates Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi al-Mubtadi and Goldie supports and elevates al-Halabi Al-Murji Al-Mubtadi, but Imaam Sufyaan Bin Uyaynah (rahimahullaah) said:

”Every person of bidah is debased.” And he stated (concerning the statement of Allaah): [وَكَذَٲلِكَ نَجۡزِى ٱلۡمُفۡتَرِينَ- Thus do We recompense those who invent lies] that it (applies) to every inventor of lies and innovator (in the religion) until the day of judgement.” [Hilyatul Awliyaa 7/28]

Imaam Fudayl Ibn Iyaad (rahimahullaah) said: Had the innovator humbled himself to the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Prophet, he would not have followed his innovation; but he is amazed with his views, so he follows what he invented. [AdhTadzkirah Fil Wadh: page:97]

It is well known that both Al-Halabi and Al-Hahjoori are afflicted with self-amazement because they enter into issues above their level and end up innovating and they wage war against the Kibaarul Ulama who unveil their wicked innovations. However Murad and Goldie prefer to aid innovators, who are well known for their wicked innovations and slanders against the scholars of Ahlus Sunnah. We ask Allaah to guide them and their followers or protect us from their misguidance. Aameen.

Do Not Worship The Sun and The Moon, But Worship The One Who Created Them

Allaah (The Most High) said:

وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ اللَّيْلُ وَالنَّهَارُ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ ۚ لَا تَسْجُدُوا لِلشَّمْسِ وَلَا لِلْقَمَرِ وَاسْجُدُوا لِلَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَهُنَّ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُونَ

And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Prostrate not to the sun nor to the moon, but prostrate to Allah Who created them, if you (really) worship Him. [1]

[41:37]

Be Mindful of Kibr because it destroys a person!

Allaah (The Most High) said:

تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُهَا لِلَّذِينَ لا يُرِيدُونَ عُلُوّاً فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلا فَسَاداً وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

That home of the Hereafter (i.e. Paradise), We shall assign to those who rebel not against the truth with pride and oppression in the land nor do mischief by committing crimes. And the good end is for the Muttaqun (pious) [Surah Al-Qasas Ayah 83]

 Allaah (The Most High) said:

وَلا تَمْشِ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَرَحاً إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَخْرِقَ الْأَرْضَ وَلَنْ تَبْلُغَ الْجِبَالَ طُولاً

And walk not on the earth with conceit and arrogance. Verily, you can neither rend nor penetrate the earth, nor can you attain a stature like the mountains in height.’’ [Surah Al-Israa Ayah 37]

Allaah (The Most High) said:

 وَلا تُصَعِّرْ خَدَّكَ لِلنَّاسِ وَلا تَمْشِ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَرَحاً إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُورٍ

And turn not your face away from men with pride, nor walk in insolence through the earth. Verily, Allah likes not each arrogant boaster. [Surah Luqman Ayah 18]

The Greatest Type of At-Tawakkul -Reliance upon Allaah- by Imaam Ibnul Qayyim

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:

The greatest type of reliance upon Allaah is: Reliance upon Allaah in (seeking) guidance; establishing Tawheed; adhering to the path of the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and striving against the people of falsehood. This is the Tawukkul of the Messengers and particularly that of their (true) followers.

Non obligatory prayers in the masjid or at home? – Shaykh Al-Uthaymeen – Rahimahullah

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

It is better that all of the supererogatory (prayers) are in the home, except for what has been legislated (to be performed) in the masjid, such as the night prayer during Ramadhan. So for example the sunnah before Dhuhr is better to be done at home, and the sunnah after Dhuhr (likewise) is better in the home. And the sunnah before Fajr is (better) done in the home, and the sunnah after Maghrib is (better) done in the home and the sunnah after Eesha is better to be done in the home.

All of the Nawaafil (supererogatory) are better (to be performed) in the home, due to the statement of the Prophet – sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam – : “The best prayer of a man is (the one performed) in his house, except the obligatory prayers”And the wisdom (behind) the naafila prayer being better in the house is: that the home does not become like a grave, i.e. He does not pray in it. And all of the prayers are a blessing.

Secondly that he makes his family accustomed with the prayer, due to this you will find the young child if he sees his father praying he goes and prays next to him, he stands with him, he bows with him, he prostrates with him and he sits with him. Even if he (the child) doesn’t say a thing, however he follows (his father in the prayer) and this is a booty, that you make your family accustomed to  (performance) of the prayer.

Allah’s will is tied to His knowledge and wisdom – Shaikh Ibn Uthaimeen

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Shaikh Ibn ‘Uthaimeen said:

Everything [brought about] by the will of Allah is coupled with His wisdom. That is because Allah The Mighty and Majestic doesn’t simply ordain mere decrees, but rather His decree comes from His wisdom. The proof of that is His statement The Most High:

But you cannot will, unless Allah wills. Indeed, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. (76:30)

His statement The Most High “Indeed, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise” indicates that His wisdom is tied to knowledge and wisdom.

Knowledge of Allah’s names and attributes; a cause of increase in imaan – Shaykh Ibn Uthaimeen

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaimeen said:

Among the causes that bring about increase in one’s imaan is having knowledge of Allah’s names and attributes. Whenever the slave increases in awareness of them, of their implications and effects, then imaan in His Rabb will [consequently] increase, as well as love and veneration of Him. Likewise, contemplating over the universal and legislative signs, whenever the slave observes them, pondering over their amazing power and their superb wisdom (of Allah demonstrated within them), then his imaan will without doubt increase.
