The Greatest Type of At-Tawakkul -Reliance upon Allaah- by Imaam Ibnul Qayyim

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:

The greatest type of reliance upon Allaah is: Reliance upon Allaah in (seeking) guidance; establishing Tawheed; adhering to the path of the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and striving against the people of falsehood. This is the Tawukkul of the Messengers and particularly that of their (true) followers.

[Al-Fawaa’id…page: 138]

A man asked Al-Hasan: To whom should I give my daughter in marriage?

A man said to Al-Hasan [Al-Basri (rahimahullaah)]: I have a daughter and she has been sought for marriage, so to whom should I give her in marriage? He (Al-Hasan) said: Marry her to the one who fears Allaah, for he will be kind to her if he loves her and he will not oppress her when he is angry with her.

Reminder to our Children -A Grateful Young Brummie Express Gratitude to His Parents….

He (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

I must say, growing up the way I have, and looking back on my short life so far, I was a privileged child. I had good parents, many successful people didn’t, who looked out for me before themselves. Maybe it was because I was the eldest, maybe they thought that I would aid them with my siblings, or just maybe it was the inclination of a parent, to make your child better than you was. I appreciate all that they did for me and how they gave me insight into what I should do with my life and the problems and fall downs I may experience. [End of quote]

[1] O People of the Book! Here are some of the noble qualities of some of your predecessors who accepted Islaam

Allaah (The Most High) said:

لَيْسُوا سَوَاءً ۗ مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ أُمَّةٌ قَائِمَةٌ يَتْلُونَ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وَهُمْ يَسْجُدُونَ

يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَيَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَيُسَارِعُونَ فِي الْخَيْرَاتِ وَأُولَٰئِكَ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ

Not all of them are alike; a party of the people of the Scripture stand for the right, they recite the Verses of Allah during the hours of the night, prostrating themselves in prayer. They believe in Allah and the Last Day; they enjoin Al-Ma’ruf (Islamic Monotheism, and following Prophet Muhammad ) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and opposing Prophet Muhammad ; and they hasten in (all) good works; and they are among the righteous. [3:113-114]

Keeping a distance from a Mubtadi even if he has knowledge of fiqh and hadeeth-[Shaikh Fawzaan(may Allaah preserve him)] clarifies

This questioner says:

 

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

If a student of knowledge utters innovation and calls to it, and he is one with Fiqh and (knowledge of) Hadeeth; does his speech of innovation necessitate an invalidation of his knowledge and his (knowledge) of hadeeth, and not to (benefit from) him unrestrictedly?

 

Answer:

Yes, he is not to be trusted; the one who is an Innovator is neither to be trusted nor his knowledge, nor (to have) a lackadaisical (stance) towards him. That is because if you (have) a lackadaisical (stance) towards him, the student will be influenced by his Shaikh-he will be influenced by his teacher. Therefore, it is obligatory to be distanced from the people of innovation, and the Salaf (pious predecessors) used to forbid (others) from sitting with the innovators, visiting and going to them; so that their evil is not spread to the one who sits with them and mixes with them.

listen to audio:

Sufyaan Ath-Thawri-[The first thing we will start with today……!]

Wakee (rahimahullaah) said:

We went out with Sufyaan Ath-Thawri (rahimahullaah) on the day of Eed, so he said:

The first thing we will start with on this day of ours is to lower our gaze.
