Ataa As-Sulaymee (rahimahullaah) said:
”I heard Ja’far Ibn Yazeed (rahimahullaah) mentioning that a man once went past a gathering, so they praised him with good. When he left them, he said: ”O Allaah! Indeed these (people) do not know me, but You know me.” [Source: Kitaab As-Samt’ of Ibn Abee Dunyaa. Page: 272]
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah (may Allaah preserve him) wrote this morning via WhatsApp:
Ibn Battah: One of the Salaf was asked, “Who is the Sunni?” He answered: “The one who does not get angry when bid’ah (or its people) are spoken about.”
By Allaah, this is a defining and distinctive trait of the Salafis past and present. They are the most knowledgeable of the people in the arena of aqeedah and they are the sternest against the opposers (mukhaalifeen). They are the gentlest between each other; they are the most obedient to Allaah and the most God-fearing; they hold to the Rope of Allaah, which is the Book and the Sunnah and the Jamaa’ah. They hate division and splitting and partisanship. They are like one body in their mutual love, mercy and compassion – when any part of this body is in pain, the rest of the body feels restless and feels the pain. The Salafi upon the path of istiqaamah does not let down his ‘ulamaa when they are attacked and reviled nor the students of knowledge who call to Allaah. He doesn’t forsake the people of truth, or turn his back on them, or backbite them, or revile them. If he is not able to aid the truth, or aid the people of truth, he should at least remain quiet and not oppose them – rather he should make du’aa for them, for indeed the Salafi is upon clarity, always, till his death. Cultivate these traits in yourself and your families. [End of Quote]
We ask Allaah for sincerity, firmness and a good end… (Aameen)
As‐Saheehah (no. 2833) of Shaikh al‐Albaanee (rahimahullaah):
‘The Banoo Israa’eel appointed a leader (Khaleefah) to be in charge of them after Moosaa (alayhis-salaam.) So he stood praying above Jerusalem, in the moonlight. So he remembered some things which he had done, and he departed, and he let himself down with a rope. So in the morning the rope was hanging from the mosque, and he had gone. He said: So he went off until he came to a people on the coast. So he found them striking bricks, or making bricks. So he asked them: ‘What do you take for these bricks?’ He said: So they informed him, so he made bricks along with them. So he used to eat from the wages he earned with his hand, and when it was time for Prayer he would stand and pray.
So the workers informed the chief of their town that amongst us there is a man who does such and such. So he sent a message to him, but he refused to go to him. This happened three times. Then he came riding upon his riding-beast. So when he saw him he fled, so he followed him and overtook him. He said: ”Let me speak to you.” He said: So he stood until he spoke to him, and he informed him of his story. So when he informed him that he was a king, and that he had fled from fear and awe of his Lord, he said: ”I think that I will join you.” He said; So he followed him,and the two of then worshipped Allaah until they died at the Rumaylah of Egypt.
Abdullaah said: ‘If I were there I would be able to find their graves, because of the description which Allaah’s Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) gave to us.
Reported by al-Bazzaar in his Musnad (4/267/3869), by way of `Amr ibn Abee Qays: from Simaak- meaning Ibn Harb: from al-Qaasim ibn `Abdir-Rahmaan: from his father: from `Abdullaah ibn Mas`ood: from the Prophet; and he said: ”We do not know anyone to have reported it from Simaak: from al-Qaasim except for `Amr; and al-Mas`oodee reported it from Simaak: from `Abdur-Rahmaan: from his father, and he did not mention al-Qaasim.”
I say: The narration of al-Mas`oodee was reported by Ahmad (1/451) and Aboo Ya`laa (9/261/5383), by way of Yazeed ibn Haaroon: al-Mas`oodee related to us: from Simaak ibn Harb: from `Abdur-Rahmaan ibn `Abdillaah: from Ibn Mas`ood who said:…, and he mentioned it.
And the two of them are supported by Qays ibn ar-Rabee`: from Simaak ibn Harb-with it, and he also did not mention al-Qaasim in its chain. This was reported by at-Tabaraanee in al-Mu`jamul-Kabeer (10/216/10370), and in al-Awsat also (2/112/1/6743), and he said:
‘No one reports it from Simaak except Qays ibn ar-Rabee’!
That is what he said! However al-Mas`oodee supported his narration, as did `Amr ibn Abee Qays-as has preceded; and even though he differed with them by mentioning al-Qaasim ibn `Abdir-Rahmaan in the chain; and their narration is more correct, even though they each had something regarding their memorization, however each one strengthens the other; and `Amr ibn Abee Qays-and he is ar-Raazee was truthful (sadooq), but made mistakes-as occurs in ‘at-Taqreeb’. So if he correctly preserved it, then it is possible to say that Simaak heard it from al-Qaasim from his father, then he heard it from his father directly; and perhaps what al-Haythumee did indicates this, as he said (10/219):
‘Reported by al-Bazzaar, and by at-Tabaraanee iin ‘al-Awsat’ and in ‘al-Kabeer’, and its chain is ‘hasan’.’
I say: So he combined the narrations of al-Bazzaar and at-Tabaraanee, despite their differing concerning their narration from Simaak. So it is as if he is indicating that there is no difference which will cause any harm between them.
And before this he brought the narration of Ahmad and Aboo Ya’laa, and he said after it: ‘And their chain contains al-Mas’oodee, and his memory deteriorated.’
And as-Suyootee fell short in ‘al-Jaami’ul-Kabeer’ (no. 6404) when he attributed it to ‘al-Mu`jamul-Kabeer’ alone!!’
The wording of the narration of Ahmad (1/451/4312) is:
‘Whilst a man from those who came before you was in his kingdom he reflected, and he knew that it was going to come to an end for him, and that his situation was preoccupying him away from the worship of his Lord. So he crept away one night and escaped from his castle, and he came to the coast, and he used to make bricks for wages. So he would eat, and he would give what remained in charity…..’ and: ‘… so the two of them worshipped Allaah-the Mighty and Majestic-together. So they supplicated to Allaah to cause them to die together. He said: So they died.’
‘Abdullaah said: ‘If I were at the Rumaylah of Egypt I could show you their graves, based upon the description given to us by Allaah’s Messenger).’
Translated by Ustaadh Abu Talhah Dawood Burbank (may Allaah have mercy upon him and his wife).
This narration was sent to us by brother Haroon Al-Banghaali (may Allaah reward him)
After a lengthy period of arrogance and opposition to the truth Mourad al-Jazaa’iri of Manchester has finally been exposed for the deviations he is upon, for the infatuated and corrupted blind following of his Shaikh al-Hajoori that caused him to attack all those that spoke the truth, at the heads of them the likes of Shaikh ‘Ubayd al-Jabiry. Shaikh Rabee’ has now clearly advised that this individual be warned against, and that is what will be done.
We will take this opportunity to councel the somewhat deluded “E-mail Shaykh” with his very own words! Only recently on 20th October he stated in yet another email in what can only be described as a delusional threat, “Very Important and Final Warning” [!], after having informed the readers that the affair is “important” and indeed “final”[!] he continued to say:
“I am asking anybody whom I advised and he rejected the advice, and whom I have promised to refute you and expose your game and corrupted way, to repent to Allaah Almighty, send me an email and we will take it from there, save your face from being humiliated because you have opposed the Haq.”
We would highlight several issues here:
1 – Those whom he thinks he “advised” did not reject advice, rather what they were asked to do in effect was abandon the actual true and sincere advice of the scholars and follow his corrupt advice and his Shaykh al-Hajoori…that is what was rejected by them.
2 – The bold and magnificent “threats” of promises to refute people who oppose him and al-Hajoori only highlight the deluded state the “E-Mail Shaykh” Mourad al-Jazaa’iri is upon…it is he himself who has been refuted and his corruption and games exposed culminating in Shaikh Rabee’ stating he be warned against, not that he himself will refute others[!].
3 – Apparently the “repentance” has to be sent to Mourad al-Jazaa’iri via email [naturally], in order to save face?! Avoid humiliation!? For those who are upright in recognizing the corruption of al-Hajoori and his number one supporter in Manchester there was never anything to save face from, there was never any question of humiliation. Those who opposed the truth and instead attacked the likes of Shaikh Rabee’ claiming he has made a “wrong” statement against al-Hajoori, as well as the Salafi Centre of Manchester, Spubs of Birmingham and others who supported the truth, as well as the students [Abu Khadeejah and Abu Muadh Taqweem Aslam], and our brother Abu Mu-aawiyyah Abdullah Jallow with slanderous statements and lies…indeed such opposers to the truth are the ones in need of openly repenting and avoiding the humiliation of persistence upon falsehood.
It would appear that Mourad al-Jazaa’iri’s own words are applicable to himself rather than anyone else, he should proceed with caution after having promised to refute himself and expose the corruption and games….since he is the one who has rejected the advice of Shaikh Rabee’ and others!
Yet we will not request that Mourad al-Jazaa’iri send us an email with his repentance, we are not deluded into thinking we are the “Court House” of Manchester – as Mourad al-Jazaa’iri seems to think he is [!] -, rather we will advise the deluded E-Mail Shaykh to repent sincerely to Allah fulfilling the conditions of repentance and to cease his attacks upon the scholars, the salafi centres and students….up until that time we will carry out the advice of the noble Shaikh Rabee’ may Allah preserve him.

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.
All praise is due to Allaah, and may (Allaah’s) salutations of peace and blessings be upon the noblest of the Prophets and the Messengers—our Prophet Muhammad—and upon his family and companions. 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.

Shaykh Al-Fawzaan admonishes in one of his sermons:
Oh mankind know that righteous communities are built on righteous families and good houses; good houses are based upon the righteous wife, due to this it is obligatory for the Muslim that he chooses a righteous wife.
(فَالصَّالِحَاتُ قَانِتَاتٌ حَافِظَاتٌ لِلْغَيْبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ اللَّهُ)،
Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in the husband’s absence what Allah orders them to guard
Soorah An-Nisaa’ Verse 34
Therefore the Muslim chooses the righteous wife for she is the foundation of the house and she is the cultivator for the offspring and she guards her offspring and husband.
(فَالصَّالِحَاتُ قَانِتَاتٌ)
i.e. she is obedient to Allah
(حَافِظَاتٌ لِلْغَيْبِ)
: When her husband is away she preserves herself (chastity), his property and his children until he returns.
A dua of the slaves of Ar-Rahmaan (as mentioned in soorah Al Furqaan)
(رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ)
And those who say: “Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes,
Soorah Al-Furqaan Verse 74
So they began their supplication with the wives (i.e. due to the importance of having righteous wives)

The shameless slanderer, persistent defender of Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi and Seeker of False Testimony, has had 61 days (and counting) to repent… but chose to persist upon blatant falsehood.
May Allaah guide him or protect us from his foolish, shameless, irrational and idiotic behaviour…This indeed is not befitting a man over the age of 40!

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.
