Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) warns against Riyaa!

Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) said:

“Riyaa is that you perform an act (of worship) and intend that the people see you, praise and commend you. And from that is to perform an act (of worship) in order to be heard, such as reading (the Qur’aan) in order that you are praised and that it is said: ”Indeed, his reading is good and beautiful”; or you perform a lot of Dhikr in order that you are praised and it is said: “He performs a lot of dhikr;” or you enjoin good and forbid evil so that you are praised and commended. This is Riyaa and Shirk Asghar. Therefore, it is obligatory to be mindful of this and that you perform your deeds for the Sake of Allaah alone; and not for the people, their praises and commendations for you; rather you learn in order to act and teach your brothers. And you lead them in the prayer whilst hoping for the reward from Allaah and intending to benefit them, and not out of an intention to be seen or heard.

Al-Hasan Al-Basri [Good in this life and the next]

Al-Hasan Al-Basri (rahimahullaah) stated about the saying of Allaah  [وَمِنۡهُم مَّن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا فِى ٱلدُّنۡيَا حَسَنَةً۬ وَفِى ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً۬ –  And of them there are some who say: “Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good (2:201]

Good in the worldly life is Knowledge and worship.

Good in the afterlife is Paradise.

Reminder

Benefit from this beautiful explanation of Mandhoomah Manhajul Haqq, but do not be isolated from the regular lessons of the Tullaab in the local Salafi Masaajid and Maraakiz.

Are you grateful?

Allaah (The Most High) said:

وَلَوۡلَا فَضۡلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَرَحۡمَتُهُ ۥ مَا زَكَىٰ مِنكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدٍ أَبَدً۬ا وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُزَكِّى مَن يَشَآءُ‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ۬

”And had it not been for the Grace of Allah and His Mercy on you, not one of you would ever have been pure from sins. But Allah purifies (guides to Islam) whom He wills, and Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.” [24:21]

Our Salaf-No Salaam to Mubtadi’ah (Innovators)

Hammaad Bin Zayd (rahimahullaah) said: ”I was with Ayyoub, Yoonus and Ibn Awn, so Amr Ibn Bin Ubaid went past them and he used to be a Mutazili; he gave them Salaam and stopped, but they did not reply to him.”

[3] Imaam Ash-Shaafi’ee (rahimahullaah)

Imaam Ash-Shaafi’ee (rahimahullaah) said:

”Whoever wants the dunyah (i.e. a blessed life in this dunyah and not that one seeks religious knowledge for the purpose worldly goods), then upon him is (to pursue) knowledge. And whoever wants the afterlife, then upon him is (to pursue) knowledge.”

Imaam Shaafi’ee (rahimahullaah):

”After fulfilling what Allaah has obligated (i.e. through knowledge that is Fard Ayn); there is (nothing) more virtuous than seeking knowledge (i.e. knowledge that is Fard Kifaayah) by way of which the slave seeks to get closer to Allaah.”

The reason for success in every Ummah of the Prophets and Messengers

Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) said:

Unity; oneness of purpose and truthful co-operation upon truth in every Ummah, is without a doubt the underlying reason for success, victory and nobility in this life and the next.

[Reminder] Salafiyyah by Association: By Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah (may Allaah preserve him)

Besides the fact that this lecture was an advice for the women in particular, it should also serve as a reminder for those men who hang around just because they like the personalities of certain people; so when those people are absent or deviated, they also disappear or deviate. Fear Allaah! You’ll not be accompanied by anyone else in your grave.
