Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Seeking Knowledge.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Al Allaamah  Zayd bin Haadi Al Madkhalee:

“So congratulations to every Student of Knowledge who has purified his intention for Allah whilst seeking that knowledge and intended by it the pleasure of Allah.

And he who adorned himself with the characteristics and attributes of the Students of Knowledge of old, from holding onto tranquility, dignity and maintaining good conduct with one’s teacher and peers, and with the people in general. Since it is through these mannerisms and other than them from those commendable traits that the Students of Knowledge are distinguished from the rest of the people. So they are the elite and best from the people no doubt!”

إِنَّ مِنْ النَّاسِ مَفَاتِيحَ لِلْخَيْرِ مَغَالِيقَ لِلشَّرِّ ، وَإِنَّ مِنْ النَّاسِ مَفَاتِيحَ لِلشَّرِّمَغَالِيقَ لِلْخَيْرِ ، فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ مَفَاتِيحَ الْخَيْرِ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ ، وَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ جَعَلَاللَّهُ مَفَاتِيحَ الشَّرِّ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ

‘Indeed from amongst the people are those who are keys to goodness and closures to evil. And indeed from amongst the people are keys to evil and closures to goodness. So tooba for the one who Allah has made him a key to goodness and wayl to the one who Allah has made a key to evil.”(1)

Shaykh Abdur Razzaq Al Badr comments on this Hadith and extracts 8 affairs if a Muslim was serious about their actualisation he would become a Key for Good and a Closure of Evil.

Fifthly: Good Manners- to adorn yourself with good noble manners and to distance yourself from bad manners that are lowly. So the possessor of noble manners his character protects him from evil and indecency, in contrast to the possessor of an evil character, for indeed his character is evil and runs towards evil and indecency.

Written by — Admin on . Posted in Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Must Read, Purification of The Soul.

Narrated Abu Musa (radiyallaahu-anhu): Two men from my tribe and I entered upon the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam). One of the two men said to the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam), ‘’O Allaah’s Messenger! Appoint me as a governor,’ and so did the second. The Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said, ‘’We do not assign the authority of the ruling to those who ask for it, nor those who are keen to have it.’’ [Saheeh Al-Bukhaari, Hadeeth Number 7149]

A Great Number of Women Would Have Been Deprived of Marriage In Some Regions of the Earth if Polygyny Did Not Exist

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Imaam Ash-Shaqeeti (rahimahullaah) said:

Allaah made it a common phenomenon that men are fewer in number than women in the various regions of the world and are more often exposed to the causes of death in all walks of life.  If a man was restricted to one wife, there would remain a great number of women deprived of marriage, so they (both men and women) will be strongly urged towards illegal sexual intercourse.

Some of the evils that results from abandoning polygamy- By Imaam ash-Shanqeeti

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Imaam Ash Shaqeeti (rahimahullaah) said:

Turning away from the guidance of the Qur’aan regarding polygyny (i.e. turning away from it based on other the Sharee’ah Reasons that allows a person to refrain from polygamy) is among the greatest causes of moral deprivation. It is (from the greatest causes) of being lowered to the level of animals due to an absence of safeguarding chastity, preserving nobility, good moral conduct and manners. [See Adwaa Al-Bayaan Surah Israa Ayah 9]
