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.

A Reminder to Husbands and Wives–Every human heart desires this…….

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Family & Women, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq'.

Allaah (The Most High) said:

وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

”And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect.” [Soorah Ar-Rum: Ayah: 21]

 

Imaam as-Saa’di (rahimahullaah):

”In most cases you will not find love in anyone similar to the love and mercy between a husband and wife.”

The position of the youth towards Islaam

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Qur'aan, The Salaf - Pious Predecessors.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Question: ”What should be the position of the youth towards Islaam? And with what do you advise the youth in this critical time of their lives?” ;

Answer: ”It is obligatory upon every Muslim to hold tightly to the rope of Allah and that he adheres to His book the Most High and the Sunnah of his Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and that he calls to the path of Allah, whilst not being fanatical to his opinion when what is correct is in other than (his opinion); rather he follows the truth wherever it is, for indeed the truth has more right to be followed, whilst totally taking the prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) as an example in his actions, good manners and character and in his call (dawah), due to His statement [I.e the statement of Allaah (The Most High):

{لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ}

21 سورة الأحزاب الآية

‘Indeed in the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) you have a good example to follow”

Surah Al-Ahzaab Verse 21

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Question: ”Who is the successful one in the sight of Allah?”

Answer: ”The successful one is he who adheres to the religion of Islam—holding onto it in creed, statement and action, being enlightened by the Noble Qur’aan and Sunnah of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and by that which the pious predecessors were upon—the companions of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and those who followed them in righteousness.”

Three Precious statements of Imaam Muqbil on Knowledge, Clinging to the Sunnah, Pride….

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Scholars of Islam.

Imaam Muqbil (rahimahullaah) said:

”Inshaa-Allaah, we will seek knowledge until we die.”

 

He (rahimahullaah) said:

”We will not abandon the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallaam) even if we were to bite onto it with our teeth.”

 

He (rahimahullaah) said:

”Pride is from the greatest affairs that diverts a person from good.  He (The Most High) said: [سَأَصْرِفُ عَنْ آيَاتِيَ الَّذِينَ يَتَكَبَّرُونَ فِي الأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ]—”I shall turn away from My Ayat (verses of the Qur’an) those who behave arrogantly on the earth, without a right.” [Al-Araaf: Ayah: 146].  The proud person is detested by the people even if he heaps a kilo basket of gold for them.”

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

Allaah (The Most High) said:

وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقًا وَعَدْلًا

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

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Innovations In Islam (Bidah), Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

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.”
