The Superior Bliss

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Pearls of Wisdom.

Indeed, the superior bliss which is noblest and loftiest in the afterlife- without exception – is to see Allaah’s face.

Uddatus- Saabireen pg43 Ibnul Qayyim

Suhayb ar-Roomi [radiyallaahu-anhu] said that the Prophet [sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam] said: “When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, Allaah [ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى  ] will say: ‘Do you want anything more?’ They will say: Have You not made our faces bright? Have You not admitted us to Paradise and saved us from Hell?’ Then the veil will be removed and they will not be given anything more beloved to them than looking at their Lord [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ]. [Sahih Muslim]

Six Affairs That Will Deprive Us of Knowledge

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Pearls of Wisdom, Seeking Knowledge.

  1. To abandon asking
  2. Not silently listening and not giving an attentive ear
  3. Misunderstanding or wrong understanding
  4. Lack of memorisation
  5. Not disseminating and teaching it; for whoever accumulates [and keeps knowledge as a secret] and does not disseminate it, Allaah will afflict him by making him forget it- as a just recompense.
  6. Not acting upon it, for indeed acting upon [knowledge] compels one to remember and ponder upon it, guard and examine it. But if he does not act upon it, he will forget it.
