Can I search through My Children’s Phone and Computer? Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan

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

This article was forwarded to us by Ustaadh Abdul Waahid (Abu Khadeejah) via WhatsApp and the translator is Ustaadh Hassan Somali (may Allaah preserve them)

Noble Shaykh-may Allaah grant you success-the questioner asks: ”Is it permissible for me as a parent to search through the mobile and computer of my children, fearing that there may be something upon them?

 

The Shaykh responded:

”Yes, this is obligatory upon you.  It is [mandatory] that you inspect them and look through them.  How many times have I mentioned to you that you should not buy them mobile phones that have the capability to do more than [make a call] and speak on them…..”

 

The questioner said, may Allaah preserve you: ‘’some people say that this type of behaviour on behalf of the father is deemed spying, which has been prohibited.  Is there any truth to this statement?

 

The Shaykh responded: ‘’This speech is false and erroneous.  The parent is commanded to nurture and educate their children, supervise them and to monitor them.  It is compulsory for them to do this, and this is not considered to be spying.  This is fulfilling the mandatory duty that Allaah has placed upon him….’’

Neither did it benefit Abu Taalib nor will it benefit the orientalists…Al-Allaamah Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

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

To know who the Messenger is:

It is that you love him more than yourself, your family and wealth.  It is obligatory upon the students of knowledge to know that everyone else loved for the sake of Allaah; but Allaah is not loved (for the sake of anyone else).  Everyone else who is loved, starting with the Messenger first and foremost, then such a (person) is to be loved for the sake of Allaah.  And for that reason if loving the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) is not (done) for the sake of Allaah, such as (loving him only) due to kinship or that he is a genius, (this) will not benefit (a person).  This love did not benefit Abu Taalib and it will not benefit those orientalists who held him in high esteem because he is a genius in history and not that he is a Messenger of Allaah.  It is obligatory upon the students of knowledge to be conscious of this.   [Abridged: Sharh Thalaatha Al-Usool: page: 22]

 

Search and Benefit from the lectures of This Noble Ethiopian Scholar

Al-Allaamah Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him and prolong his life upon goodness) said:

What I know of the Shaikh Muhammad Amaan (rahimahullaah): Indeed, the seekers of knowledge and the carriers of various lofty certificates are many; but few amongst them benefit from their knowledge and are benefitted from, and Shaikh Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami is from those rare and few ones; from those scholars who are well grounded in their knowledge and efforts with regards to benefitting the Muslims and guiding them through calling to Allaah upon clear-sightedness; and  by way of his teaching in the Islamic University and in the noble Masjid of the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam); and by way of his tours of the foreign Islamic lands and his tours within the kingdom (of Saudi Arabia) to deliver lessons and lectures in the different districts–calling to Tawheed, disseminating the correct Aqeedah, directing the youth of the Ummah to the methodology of the pious predecessors and warning against the destructive ideologies and the misguided calls.  And whoever does not know him personally will know him by way of his beneficial books and tapes which contains plentiful knowledge and benefit.’’ [End of quote.

I [Abu Mu-aawiyyah (Abdullaah Al-Gambi)] have been informed more than once by my companion and colleague Ustaadh Abu Tasneem [Mushaf Al-Banghaalee (may Allaah preserve him)], who was a close friend and companion of Ustaadh Abu Talhah Dawud Burbank (may Allaah grant him and his wife Jannah), that he asked Dawud, saying: ”which scholar did you benefit from the most whilst you were in Saudi?”  He (Dawud) said: ”Shaikh Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami”

 

A Golden Observation of Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadee Al-Madkhalee

 Al-Allaama Rabee Bin Haadee Al-Madkhali (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

I have stated more than once: Indeed, we have met Salafis in the eastern and western parts of the earth- all of them had love for one another and brotherhood upon one methodology and there was no differing between them, so the Salafi Dawah was disseminated in the eastern and western world. Then the malicious ones amongst the Yahood, the Nasaaraa, the evangelists (or missionaries) and the leaders of misguidance amongst the rawaafid (shia) and the soofiyyah noticed it-those who co-operate with the enemies of (Salafiyyah) and the misguided parties. By Allaah they co-operate with the enemies (of Salafiyyah) and there is a hidden and apparent connection between them, and they do not co-operate except in opposition to the Salafi Methodology. So they disseminated and propagated the poisons of disunity amongst the Salafis when it (i.e. Salafiyyah) spread in the eastern and western parts of the earth. They propagated the poisons of disunity in the midst of the Salafis, so they rip them apart in an evil way and there emerged a people who did not know Salafiyyah’s (true) orientation. Amongst them (i.e. those who emerged) is one who claims to be Salafi, but you do not see him except that he severs the affairs that binds Salafiyyah, due to his evil behaviour, his evil methodology or the evil methodologies that are widespread and designed to disunite the Salafis and tear them apart. Salafiyyah is in need of sensible, merciful and wise people, and even before that it is need of scholars. If these affairs are not present within the Salafis, then where will Salafiyyah be? It will be ruined.  And may Allaah bless you.

Al’Allaamah Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami said: Do not be deceived by this appellation…….

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam.

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

This term is blindly utilised, therefore do not be deceived by it.  If you hear the term Islamic Philosopher, then know that there is no such thing as Islamic Philosopher. The well-known Raazi [rahimahullaah] was a doctor, but all of them [i.e. him and those like him] were not saved from Philosophy. However, he is not regarded to be from the senior Philosophers, rather he is regarded to be from the scholars of Ilmul Kalaam [i.e. those who sought to establish the Islamic creed based on logical and intellectual arguments and not simply restricting themselves to the Qur’aan, the Sunnah and the understanding of the companions] who expressed regret at the end of his life. And even though his repentance is not explicit, however he was from those who expressed regret and regret is a type of repentance.

Shaikh al-Fawzan Rejects False Claims against Shaikh Rabee’

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Scholars of Islam.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

The following is a telephone conversation [paraphrased] that occurred with the Shaikh regarding some statements that are attributed to him regarding Shaikh Rabee’;

The Questioner: “May Allah place blessing in you our noble shaikh, we are aware of your blessed advice regarding leaving useless speech, “he said” and and “it was said” and the like, however some of our brothers refuse and continue to busy themselves in this and they transmit that…”

The Shaikh: “Leave them, distance yourself from them”

The Questioner: “May Allah protect you, they transmit  from you that, for example, you say that Shaikh Rabee’ bin Hady is Murji’ee, so we say to them….”

The Shaikh: “Where did they find this speech, where did they find it?!”

The Questioner: “By Allah Shaikh, they put together [superimpose] refutations [like this]”

The Shaikh: “Where did they find it?! Let them bring you documentation of my speech, as for merely narrating and transmitting speech like this, it is lying and not permissible”

May Allah preserve our scholars.

Simple Words For The Sensible One To Reflect Upon Concerning Our Circumstances Today!!!

Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Brotherhood, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Monotheism - Tawheed, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Qur'aan, Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

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

Shaikh Raslaan (may Allaah preserve him) said:

The Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) was sent within circumstances concerning which a Muslim cannot say: ”Indeed, the circumstances in which we live in more evil and more deprave in its depravity than (the circumstances in which the Prophet was sent).”   (That is) because the Prophet (salal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) was sent to a disbelieving people and he guided them through one way and one path-to worship one Lord, one God, The Perfect Lord and Master upon Whom all the creation depends and He is self-sufficient, The Unique One in His Names, Attributes and Actions. There is neither another true God (worthy of worship) besides Him nor another true Lord (i.e. the creator, provider and controller of the affairs of the creation) besides Him.

Therefore, the path [of Prophet-salal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam in calling to Allaah in those circumstances] was one, and it path the (way) that the Messengers brought.  The Prophet (salal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) called the Ummatud Dawah (i.e. the nation that had not yet accepted the message of Islaam) to that which is obligatory for today’s Ummatul Ijaabah (i.e. the nation that has already accepted the call of Islaam) to call to.

[1] From the stories of Al-Allaama Rabee Bin Haadee Al-Madkhalee

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Scholars of Islam.

Al-Allaama Rabee Bin Haadee Al-Madhalee (may Allaah preserve him) said:

I remember we were on a journey to one of the Arab countries-unfortunately-and arrived at one of the hotels; then we said, ”direct us to a restaurant”, and they directed us to what they claim was the best restaurant.   We sat down and got the menu list and in it was alcohol and swine meat.  So we said to the one who gave us the menu list: ”Are you a Muslim?” He said: ”Yes, I am a Muslim.”  We said: ”How can you serve alcohol and swine meat to diners?” He said: ”This is my sustenance and from where would I eat then?” We said to him: ”your sustenance is with Allaah (Glorified and Exalted Be He).  Indeed Allaah has guaranteed your sustenance and the doors of sustenance are open, so fear Allaah.”  And we advised him in every way.

The testimony (in this incident) is that some of the Muslims work in some of the hotels in which there is alcohol and they serve swine meat.  This is in an Islamic land (in which) alcohol and swine meat are served, so how about those who travel to Europe?  I believe that many of them may work in these hotels, serving swine meat to those who eat it amongst the sinful Muslims, the Muslim evil doers and the disbelievers.  This is from the greatest affairs of wrongdoing and from the greatest of the major sins, and it may be a means to an evil end (in this life).  And Allaah’s protection is sought.

We have stated to you more than once–Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) said:

”We have said to you and we have said to you! We do not want anyone to select us.  InShaaAllaah, we choose from the narrations of the Messenger of Allaah (Sallal-laahu wa-alaa aalihi-wasallam) just as the scholars used to choose.  We neither want authority nor leadership, and we have stated more than once; even if the leader of the state called us and said: ”Go ahead favoured with leadership”, we would say: ”Allaah’s protection is sought!  We do not see you as one who gives us sincere advice.”  We do not want leadership; we do not want to be appointed a minister; we do not want to call the people to follow us; we do not want to establish a party; but we want to call to the Book of Allaah and to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu alayhi wa-alaa aalihi wasallam).

We do not have time to defend ourselves–Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) said:

”We do not have time to defend ourselves; but we (defend) the Sunnah.  And even if we are tormented with fierce battle we will not leave anyone who speaks against the Sunnah of the Messenger (Sallal-laahu-alayhi- wa-alaa-aalihi-wasallam) — be he a Shia, or a Soofee or from Ikhwaan al-Muslimeen (i.e. the deviated and destructive innovated Muslim brotherhood of Egypt and else- where); because we are to sacrifice (ourselves) for the Sunnah and our objective is the Sunnah.”
