Ibn Hazm (rahimahullaah) sated:

Indeed those with a wicked disposition become angry due to severe envy when they see that those who are good to them are in a higher position than them.

A Traveller Eating In the Late Afternoon In The Presence of the People during Ramadhaan – Shaikh Abdullaah Bin Humaid

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Brotherhood, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Fatawa-Rulings, Islamic Jurisprudence - 'Fiqh', Ramadhan, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

Question to Shaikh Abdullaah Bin Humaid (rahimahullaah)

Some of the people come for Umrah and eat in the Haram because they are travellers; but they eat in the presence of the people. Is it permissible for them to do so?

Answer:

It is permissible for a traveller to eat, but the scholars have stated that he (or she) should not eat in the presence of the people. He (or she) should eat in private lest the people disapproved of him (or her) and say that this person is thoughtless or lest the sinful people blindly follow him (or her).

You have a (legislated) excuse because you are a traveler. But it is not befitting that you eat in the presence of the people because they will accuse you and a person is commanded to safeguard his (or her) honour. Also the sinful people will follow you when they see you eating, saying: ‘’Such and such a person eats so we will also eat like him.’’

And indeed the scholars from the Hanaabilah (i.e. the scholars of the Madhab of Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) and other than them have stated that it is permissible for the traveller to eat during the day in Ramadhaan and there is no harm in doing so, except that it is not befitting for him (or her) to eat in the presence of the people, rather of he (or she) should eat in private.

Question to Al-Allaamah Ahmad An-Naajmi (rahimahullaah)

What is the ruling on the saying [Shukran (i.e. thank you)] to the one who did good to a person?

Answer:

Whoever does so [i.e. says Shukran ] has indeed abandoned what is better and that is the statement [جزاك الله خير – May Allaah reward you with good]

A Warning Against The Deceptive Salafi Events’’ Must Read

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Brotherhood, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Methodology - 'Manhaj'.

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

SalafiEventsUK have recently been exposed for having promotional material for the likes of Yasir Qadhi and the disgraceful Abu Eesa Niamatullah of al-Maghrib Institute on their masjid walls – the exact same masjid they are now holding the quick ‘cover up’ conference in to divert attention away from the embarrassing exposure.

In this quick cover-up conference they have invited an individual by the name of Abdurahman Hasan, and have lavishly promoted him as having ‘studied under’ Shaykh Abdul Muhsin and Shaykh Fawzan, (even they had enough sense to realize phrasing it as “student of Shaykh Abdul Muhsin and Shaykh Fawzan” would not have fooled anyone, hence the watered down – yet still lavish – version “studied under”).

There is one piece of information SalafiEventsUK failed to inform everyone – rather conveniently – and instead kept it under careful guard concealed; the name of another “Shaykh” this foolish humiliated (by the Takfeeries) Abdurahman Hasan studied with. You will soon realize why…

His name is Abu Ishaaq al-Huwayni from Egypt. So who is he? The Salafi scholars will inform you….

➡️Shaykh Muqbil: Whilst answering a question and mentioning that it’s not necessary someone who does not have salafi cassettes and books is not salafi however “we must look to whom they associate with and befriend? Do they affiliate with innovators? Yes, like Abdurahman Abdul Khaaliq and Abu Ishaaq al-Huwayni  – these two are considered from the innovators. Yes indeed, similarly, Safar (al hiwaly) and Salman (al Awda) also are (all) considered from the innovators….”

https://youtu.be/g5QN073MsRE

➡️Shaykh Ahmed an-Najmy:

Q: What is the state of all the following – Muhammad al-Maghrawi, Abu Ishaaq al-Huwayni, Hussein Ya’qoob?

A: That which I know about Muhammad al-Maghrawy is that he is Takfeery, and Abu Ishaaq al-Huwayni also, and he is from the friends of Abul-Hasan and his supporters, as for Hussein Ya’qoob I do not know him”.

➡️Shaykh Rabee’ al-Madkhaly:

“For years I have not answered (regarding Huwayni), I wanted to delay regarding his affair, I wanted to debate him (over his errors), I sent him advices, but (he hasn’t changed) he is as he was, he doesn’t increase in anything except further distancing himself from the Salafi Methodology, and increasing in unity with the Qutbees, so this is his state, this is his state now. He claims to be from ahlus Sunnah yet gets closer to the people of innovation, and associate with them and unite with them”.

Please do not be confused by these deceptive individuals “SalafiEventsUK”. They support hizbees and work with them (from masjid sunnah Cheetham Hill who cut the phone line on purpose on Sh Rabee when he was going to refute their shaykh abul hasan Mariby the innovator), they promote al Maghrib on their walls, they had syed qutb books available to the public – until they were exposed.

They now invite the foolish Abdurahman Hasan who thought he could debate the Takfeeries and instead ended up in national humiliation for himself after they defeated him, the Takfeeries were jubilant posting up the video everywhere after their victory.

They invite Abul Abbas Naveed, the known liar, a defender of GLM who lectures with them, a defender of Abu Osama Dhahaby. A member of the refuted madeenahdotcon.

The advice is to STAY AWAY, do not attend these events of theirs. Protect your religion. Do not end up with almaghrib or GLM or with Abu Osama Dhahaby through SalafiEventsUK. BaarakAllahu feekum.

Please forward and advise your friends & family to stay away from these deceptive individuals.

[2002]-A Testimony To Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah’s Leniency and Goodwill Towards Fatwa-online/Madeenah.com for The Sake of Brotherhood

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Brotherhood.

Aboo Zakee (Troid) wrote on Salafitalk.net in 2002

As salaamu ‘alaykum wa rahmatullaah,

When fatwa-online first came on the scene (around 2000), salafipublications.com, troid.org (and others) were amongst the most vigorous in promoting the fatwa-online site, the initiative to develop a fatwa based website for the Muslims was something well-received, emails and announcements were regularly forwarded on the TROID and SP mailing lists and there was evidently clear cooperation with this da’wah effort on the part of SP and TROID. In fact, one might say that these two websites (that preceded Fatwa Online) helped to popularise the fatwa website and showed complete cooperation with this effort at its onset and the praise is for Allaah.

In terms of who/how fatwa-online aligns itself with, I remember a situation many years ago. Around the year 2000 we found one of our articles on their website, we kindly requested that it be referenced to www.troid.org and that it be left intact and. We received a response from the admin of Fatwa Online who mentioned that he didn’t want to ref. troid.org as it may hinder their efforts in reaching a broader audience (since troid.org was/is a site, wal-hamdulillaah that openly discusses the issue of salafiyyah and the term salafee was problematic in this wide-ranged approach).  As much as we respected his effort, we wished to insist upon the referencing/terminology being left intact but before being insistant, we sought the intercession of our brother, Abu Khadeejah, lecturer at Masjid as-Salafi – Birmingham. So he advised us with a sound advice towards cooperation and good ties, he said:

“For the sake of the da’wah, let the issue go (release your insistence, even though you don’t agree), wallaahi, the brother (Fatwa Online admin.) is a beautiful brother, you would love him if you met him.”

So we benefited from this advice by understanding

– Despite disagreeing, the concern from our brother Abu Khadeejah was to maintain good ties (with fatwa online), good cooperation and he sought to mend ties, first and foremost
– That one doesn’t always have to hold his position; he may let it go for the overall good (even if he doesn’t agree)

– That even though troid.org and salafipublications.com were diligent in referencing fatwa online, promoting their content, adding links to their sites etc. and the cooperation wasn’t reciprocated, there was still nothing but respect for the work of the brother (at Fatwa Online) and overall good thoughts

So this is the manner in which we found those at Maktabah Salafiyyah for Fatwa-Online and we accepted this advice and let the issue go. Despite not wanting to ref/affiliate troid.org, as the years passed, the open referencing and affiliation of Green Lane Masjid increased (amongst others) and I think this is an important point, as time was taken to promote the da’wah of those hosting the likes of Yaasir Qadhee and Abu Usaamah (and one can check the threads on Green Lane for a large listing of problems) to the exclusion of Masjid as-Salafi and many of the du’aat in the UK known for their Salafiyyah. In fact if one were to search the yahoogroup for fatwa online, one would find 26 emails referencing green lane and 1 referencing salafipublications, both organisations are in the same city, one known for salafiyyah, the other known for hizbiyyah,  so there is no doubt as to where their allegiances lie.

Years later, I finally met with an individual involved with fatwa online. In having discussions with him we found that the conversations often and quickly turned to the issues of Abu Khadeejah, Maktabah Salafiyyah and focusing negatively on their efforts, efforts which we see as the most consistent and most clear in spreading the salafee da’wah and connecting the people to their Scholars in the West dating back more than 15  years!

In one instance, I had breakfast with one of the representatives of fatwa online in which it was the first time we met, the conversation turned quickly  to speaking about Abu Khadeejah this and Abu Khadeejah that…and when we had barely met! I just remembered years early, how Abu khadeejah how spoken so well of the same individual, protecting his honour and encouraging us with cooperation and good thoughts wallaahul musta’aan.

So we respected our brothers and their efforts in giving da’wah, we gave them our attention and listened to what they had to say and we did not find except that their contention (with Maktabah Salafiyyah) seemed personal and misplaced and that is was a debacle that they would support and promote Green Lane Masjid and speak against Masjid as-Salafi. Lastly, there should be no doubt in anyoneýs mind that Maktabah Salafiyyah (and TROID for that matter) sought to cooperate with Fatwa Online for many years, turning a blind eye to much, until it became something no longer possible due to the allegiances they (Fatwa Online) attached themselves too.  We ask Allaah for safety, ameen.

Al-Maktabah As-Salafiyyah Has Done Nothing Wrong To Brother Tahir Wyatt, Rather He Brought Blame on Himself Due To His Actions and Companionship

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Brotherhood, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Tamyee'.

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

Indeed, the affair of Tahir Wyatt (may Allaah rectify his affair) is easy to understand. If I am told that brother Tahir has received praises from such and such Shaikh, I will reply saying: Tahir Wyatt’s actions are proof of what he is guilty of. So let us look at some insightful statements of Shaikh Ubaid (may Allaah preserve him):

Quote:

Therefore, it is incumbent upon you that when the state of that person is made clear–the one whose fame is widespread–then you should be cautious of him as long as he was warned against by those people of knowledge and Imaan who are upon the Sunnah; for indeed they will unveil his affair with evidences.  And there is no hindrance in unveiling the state of that person who has been warned against by a scholar or scholars with the appropriate etiquettes and in a good manner because that scholar will say to you: “I saw this and that in him, and I saw this and that in the book of such and such, or I heard this or that in the cassette of such and such.” [End of quote]

So what is the affair that is manifest about brother Tahir?

Firstly, brother Tahir is an associate of Madeenah.com

Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu-anhu) said, the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said: ”A person is upon the religion of his friend, so let each one of you look at whom he befriends.” [As-Saheehah: 97]

And amongst the associates of brother Tahir at Madeenah.com is Naveed Ayaaz- the shameless and obstinate shelterer of the staunch followers of Al-Maribi, Al-Halabi and Al-Maghraawi at Masjid As-Sunnah [Cheethamhill-Manchester]. Naveed openly accompanies the staunch followers of these innovators at Masjid As-Sunnah as well as promote the compulsive liar and man of Bidah Abu Usaamah. Likewise, Naveed associates himself with Greenlane’s Admin -the affiliates of Ihyaa Turaath, Yasir Qadhi, Abu Usaamah, Kamaal Mekki etc. This is Naveed’s companionship, an associate of Tahir Whytt at Madeenah.com. And just as Naveed finds excuses for his companions and attacks the Salafiyyoon of Nelson and Manchester, likewise Tahir Whytt is guilty of a similar crime from another angle, as Shaikh Rabee Bin Haadi (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

Finally: We remind ourselves of this hadeeth once again-Narrated Aisha (radiyallaahu-anhaa): I heard the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) saying, ‘’Souls are like recruited troops; those who are of like qualities are inclined to each other, but those who have dissimilar qualities differ.’’ [Saheeh Bukhaari Vol 4. Hadeeth Number 3336. Darusallam]

Al-Haafidh Ibn Hajar (rahimahullaah) stated one of the meanings of this hadeeth in Fat-hul Baari that Al-Khattaabi (rahimahullaah) said: This may indicate to mean similarity in good and evil, righteousness or corruption– the good one amongst the people  is inclined towards one similar to him, and the evil one is similarly inclined towards the one similar to him.  Souls have an affinity with others in accordance with the nature in which they were created, good or evil. They will agree if their natures are similar, otherwise they will be at loggerheads…  [See Fat-hul Baari for further details]

Tahir Whytt’s associate at Madeenah.com (Naveed Ayaaz) refuse to take a stance against al-Maribi, rather he even defends the staunch followers of Al-Maribi and attack the Salafiyyoon. Likewise, Tahir refuses to take a stance but finds it easy to criticise, just as Shaikh Rabee (may Allaah preserve him) has stated.

As for the brothers at Al-Maktabah as-Salafiyyah, their companionship is well known in the UK, America, Canada and elsewhere. They are neither with the innovators Al-Maribi, Al-Halabi, Al-Maghraawi nor are they associated with any Markaz (or organization) that promotes these people, nor are they associated with any individual who promotes them. Therefore, the affair is very clear.

We ask Allaah for Sidq, Thabaat, Ikhlaas and Husnul Khaatimah. Aameen

 The verdict of the scholars against Abul Hasan Al-Maribi

Al-Allaamah Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) said:

Abandon this man (i.e. Abul Hasan) and call to the methodology of Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jamaa-ah.” [Source: Siyaanatus-salafi Min Waswasati Wa-Talbeesaat Ali Al-Halabi: 533]

Al-Allaamah Abdullaah Al-Ghudayaan (rahimahullaah) said:

”This man (i.e. Abul Hasan al-Maribi) is subjected to trials and tribulations, (he is) insignificant and foolish.” [Source: Siyaanatus salafi: page: 533]

Al-Allaamah Bin Yahyah An-Najmi (rahimahullaah) said:

”Indeed, it has been finally established with me that Abul Hasan is a Mubtadi (innova-tor).” [Source: Siyaanatus-salafi: page: 533]

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee Al-Waadi-ee (rahimahullaah) said:

”Be cautious of Abul Hasan….I fear for the Dawah with regards to Abul Hasan.” He (rahimahullaah) also said: ”Abul Hasan is sly. He utilises cleverness and not what is from righteousness, purity and uprightness…..” [Source: Siyaanatus Salafi page: 533]

Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Hadee al-Madkhalee (may Allaah preserve him) said:

”The initial affair with regards to them (i.e. Al-Abul Hasan al-Maribi, Muhammad Hassaan and Abu Ishaaq Al-Huwayni) is that they are ikhwaanees, upon the nurturing of the ikhwaanees.” [Source: Siyaanah: page:534]

 Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadee (may Allaah preserve him) said:

”Indeed, many of the Salafi brothers are aware of the condition of this man (i.e. Abul Hasan Al-Maribi); rather at present he is with the groups of illegal partisanship, and he says, he says and he says of that which is recorded in his cassettes. And he used to reject these (affairs) the day before, but today he came with them with his own tongue. We ask Allaah for wellbeing and safety. He now speaks with the affairs he used to reject from the callers to illegal partisanship the day before….until the Shaikh said: ‘’I know him (i.e. Abul Hasan), he does not feel ashamed of telling lies.” [Source: Siyaanatus salafi: page: 535]

Al-Allaamah Ubaid Bin Abdillaah Al-Jaabiriy (may Allaah preserve him) said:

”This man (i.e. Abul Hasan) is an ikhwaanee…” [Source: Siyaanatus salafi: page:534]
