Assalam alaikum wa rahmatullah,

Want to know the Message of Your Creator? Learn Arabic!

Want to understand what you are saying when you pray? Learn Arabic!
Want to understand what the Prophet (saaws) said? Learn Arabic!

Shaykh Albaani (ra) said,

"Learning the Arabic language is an obligatory issue due to what is established with the scholars that: those things which an obligatory action cannot be established without are obligatory themselves.  And it is not possible for a student of knowledge to understand the Quraan and the Sunnah except through the Arabic language."

Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen (ra) said,

 "..It is upon them to learn the language of the Qur.aan, because if understanding the Book of Allaah or the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (sal-Allaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) is dependant upon learning the Arabic language, then learning Arabic becomes waajib. This is because every action that has to be carried out, in order to be able to perform an obligation, acquires the ruling of being obligatory [or - All actions which if not performed first, an obligatory act cannot be performed, acquire the ruling of being obligatory (even if they are not an obligation within themselves, such as walking to the masjid for Salaatul Jamaa’ah (for men), since one cannot perform jamaa’ah in the masjid unless he walks there, the act of walking in order to get to the masjid becomes waajib upon that individual, and so on...)"

Shaykh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (ra) said, 

“It is known that Arabic is Fard ‘alal-Kifaayah and the Salaf would discipline their children for making grammatical mistakes. Due to this, we are ordered, whether it be an obligation or a recommendation, to preserve the Arabic (grammatical) rules, and to correct the tongues that have deviated from the correct speech. By doing so, we preserve the methodology of understanding the Qur.aan and the Sunnah. We also preserve the following of the Arabs in their manner of (correct) speech. If people were left with their grammatical mistakes, this would be considered a great deficiency and despicable mistake.”

Verily, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qu'ran in order that you may understand.

Allaah (Ta ‘alaa) says in the Qur’aan,

“O People of the Scripture, do not go to extremes in your religion and do not speak except the truth." [Soorah an-Nisaa: 171]

“Say: O People of the Scripture, do not go to extremes in your religion beyond the truth and do not follow the inclinations of a people who had gone astray before - they misled many and themselves strayed from the correctness of the way.” [Soorah al-Maa’idah:77]

“In both of these verses there is a forbiddance for the “people of the scripture” – the jews and christians – from going to extremes in religion. And every statement in the noble Qur’aan directed towards the people of the scripture also includes this nation (the Muslims) because it is this nation that is the primary recipient and addressee of this book. So when Allaah forbids them from going to extremes, we are even more so forbidden to go to extremes.”

Additionally, it was narrated by ‘Abdullaah Ibn ‘Abbaas (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) that the Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said,

“Beware of extremism in religion because the only thing that destroyed those before you was extremism in religion.” [An-Nasaa’ee and Ibn Maajah]

Moreover, ‘Abdullaah Ibn Masood ( radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu ) said: Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) repeated three times:

“The Mutanatti’oon are destroyed.” [Muslim]

An-Nawawee (rahimahullaah) explains, “The Mutanatti’oon are the overly-strict people; those who go too deep (into religious matters), the extremists, those who go beyond the permissible limits in their statements and actions.” [“The Forbiddance and Danger of Extremism” by Shaykh ‘Ali Ibn Yahya al-Haddaadi from AbdurRahman.org]

The Noble Shaykh Khalid ‘Abdur Rahmaan al-Misree (hafidhahullaah) will admonish us regarding this grave matter of extremism in the religion and expound on its aspects, reasons and the cure for this disease from the pure Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam).

We ask Allaah to make us from those who are balanced; those who neither fall into negligence nor exceed the limits.

“The knowledge of Seerah, May Allaah have mercy on you, is important in the life of every seeker of knowledge and is an integral part of understanding Islaam, because as Muslims, we use the Qur’aan and Sunnah as the frame of reference for understanding everyday practical life. These sources of revelation (the Qur’aan and Sunnah) are clearly seen being practiced by the Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) and his Companions when we read narrations ofSeerah. That is to say, the study of Seerah is a look at the practical understanding and implementation of these texts – by those who understood them best. Therefore, understanding Seerah provides understanding of the Sunnah (which in turn, gives understanding of the Qur’aan).” [“The Importance of Learning Seerah from www.athaar.org]

Therefore, it is of fundamental importance that we learn the Seerah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) since a person cannot love someone he does not know. So by studying the biography of the Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), our love for him will increase and by the guidance of Allaah, so will our emulating and obedience of him.

Our Noble Shaykh Rashaad al-Hubaishi (hafidhahullaah) will enlighten us with some precious moments from the authentic Seerah of our Prophet Muhammad (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) and by the Permission of Allaah we will all benefit from the jewels of guidance presented in these sittings.

We urge our brothers and sisters to make every effort to attend and benefit from this special opportunity to learn about our Messenger (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) from one of the scholars of Ahlus Sunnah in our time.

Live Lecture! Shaykh Ahmad Shamlaan: Ahl Sunnah's Belief in The Mahdi

Bismillaah wa -Alhamdulillaah wa Salaatu wa Salaam 'alaa Rasulillaah 'amma ba'd

Shaykh Ahmad Ibn Ahmad Shamlaan (May Allaah preserve Him) from the mashaayikh of Yemen has agreed to do a LIVE tele-lecture with Muwahhideen Publication on Monday 24^th February 2013 on the topic of Ahlus Sunnah’s belief in the Mahdi. The Shaykh is from the students of Ash-Shaykh Al-Allaamah Al-Muhaddith, The Imaam of Yemen, Shaykh Abu ‘Abdur Rahmaan Muqbil Ibn Hadee al-Waadi’ee (rahimahullah).

There exists a lot false beliefs surrounding the Mahdi, particular amongst the raafidhah shi’a who hold many absurd beliefs concerning him.

According to Al-‘Allaamah Ash-Shaykh Rabee’ Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah) ,

“From their superstitions and stories is that they have a Mahdi from the Prophet’s (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) family whom they await and that he has been in a cave for more than 1200 years who they claim is the 12thImaam. This Imaam does not exist; this Mahdi has not even been created. The Mahdi that the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) mentioned is true, however, he is not the one that the Rawafidh (Shia) claim is the Mahdi. From their stories is that Musa Ibn Jafar (d. 183AH) - who the Rawafidh claim is one of their Imaams – said to a person during his time, ‘If you live then you will meet him.’ Since then, 1249 years have passed and they still have not met him. This is proof that this was a slander and a lie against Musa.” [“A Warning Against the Spread of the Deen of the Rawafidh (Shia)in Algeria and Other Muslim Lands” from AbdurRahman.org]

On the authority of ‘Ali (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu), the Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “The Mahdi is from us – the family of the Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam); Allaah will rectify him in a single night.”[Ahmad]

‘Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ood (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) related that the Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Even if there remains from this world only a single day…Allaah would prolong that day until a man from me or from my descendants is sent; his name is the same as my name, and his father’s name is the same as my father’s name.” [Abu Dawood] And this is an addition from the hadeeth of Qatr : “He will fill the earth with fairness and justice just as it was filled with wrongdoing and oppression.”

These are but two of the many ahadeeth which discuss the affairs of the Mahdi.

Our Shaykh Ahmad Shamlaan (hafidhahullaah) will convey to us the belief of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah concerning the Mahdi and by the Permission of Allaah expel any false beliefs or doubts one might have regarding this issue.

We ask Allaah to correct our creed and that He, Al-‘Aleem grants us beneficial knowledge that would be a proof for us and not against us on the Day of Judgement.

Allaah says in His Noble Book,

“And strive hard in Allaah's Cause as you ought to strive (with sincerity and with all your efforts that His Name should be superior). He has chosen you (to convey His Message of Islaamic Monotheism to mankind by inviting them to His religion, Islaam), and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship, it is the religion of your father Ibrahim (Abraham) (Islaamic Monotheism). It is He (Allaah) Who has named you Muslims both before and in this (the Qur'aan), that the Messenger (Muhammad sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over mankind! So perform As-­Salaat (Iqamat-as-Salaat), give Zakaat and hold fast to Allaah [i.e. have confidence in Allaah, and depend upon Him in all your affairs] He is your Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.), what an Exc ellent Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.) and what an Excellent Helper!” [Soorah Al-Hajj :78]

According to Ibn Kathir (rahimahullaah), “And strive hard in Allaah's cause as you ought to strive” means, with your wealth and your tongues and your bodies.

Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) narrated:

Somebody asked, "O Allaah's Apostle! Who is the best among the people?" Allaah's Apostle replied "A believer who strives his utmost in Allaah's Cause with his life and property." They asked, "Who is next?" He replied, "A believer who stays in one of the mountain paths worshipping Allaah and leaving the people secure from his mischief."

In this struggle, it is imperative that we first strive against our own souls before we can become victorious in any another struggle. As the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said:

"The Mujaahid is the one who struggles against his own soul in Allaah's obedience." [Tirmidhee who said it was Hasan Saheeh and Al-Albaanee said: 'Its isnaad is good']

“It is vital that a person launches a war against his soul. One which is not haphazard or aimless but rather a firm and determined one in which he uses the weapons of faith (eemaan), sincerity to Allaah (ikhlaas), patience (sabr) and supplication (du'a). He uses them until he is able to overcome this mischievous enemy which is concealed between the two sides of his body [the soul, which commands the evil]. As a result he tames and pacifies it and makes it obedient, humble and submissive to the command of Allaah.”

For this reason we find that Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) says: 'Since the jihaad against the enemies of Allaah outwardly (i.e. physically) is a branch of the jihaad of the servant against his own soul for the sake of Allaah...'[“I Want to Fight My Soul So What is The Way?” from SalafiPublications.com]

Our Shaykh Muhammad Ghalib al-‘Umari (hafidhahullaah) will explain to us what it means to truly strive in Allaah’s Cause and by the Permission of Allaah we will all be encouraged to act upon what the Shaykh presents to us from the Book of Allaah, the Sunnah of His Messenger and the statements of Ahlul ‘Ilm.

We ask Allaah to make us from those who yield obediently to Him and sincerely strive in His Cause and that He (Subhaanah) takes our souls at the time when He is most pleased with us.

Seek Out Your Heart

Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy on him, said,

 “Seek out your heart in three places: when listening to the Quraan, in the gatherings of [Allaah’s] remembrance, and when [alone] in privacy, and if you do not find it in these places, then ask Allaah to grant you a heart – for verily, you do not have one.”

Fawaaidul-Fawaaid, p. 479

Filling Your Appetite in This Dunya

From Ibn Umar who said:

A man burped/belched in front the Prophet -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- and the Prophet -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- said:

‘Stop your belching in front of us since indeed many of those people who have filled their appetites in the Dunyaa will be those who will be hungry for a long time on the Day of Judgment.’

The book to be studied is Lum'at-ul-'Itiqaad (Sufficiency in Creed) authored by Imaam Muwaffaq-ud-Deen Abu Muhammad 'Abdullaah ibn Ahmad Ibn Qudaamah al-Maqdisi (d.620 AH), May Allaah have mercy upon him, from the great scholars of the salaf us saalih (righteous predecessors) of this ummah (nation) from the 6th and 7th century. Ibn al-Jawzee (rahimahullaah) said about him, "Whoever sees him, then it is as if he has seen one of the companions." Also Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said, "The saying of Shaykh ul Islaam Muwaffaq-ud-Deen Abu Muhammad 'Abdullaah ibn Ahmad al-Maqdisi, of whom all the groups of Islaam have agreed upon his acceptance, his excellence and his scholarship, except for the jahmiyyah or the mu'tilah..."

In this excellent book the Imaam gathered many of the core issues of 'aqeedah (creed; belief system) that is vital for the survival of any Muslim who wishes to tread the path of the salaf, from the correct belief regarding the names and attributes of Allaah, the proper belief in the Qadr (the decree), to the belief of Ahl Sunnah wal Jama'ah regarding the Sahabah (Companions), and much more.

Our teacher, Shaykh 'Ali ibn Ahmad ar-Razihi (hafidhahullaah) will explain this book for us in a manner that will make it palatable for all levels of Muslims to grasp and benefit inshaaAllaah

Follow the Truth

"Whoever intends the Truth, he should seek it from its correct place.  And the Truth does not come about through venerating individuals, nor through flashy words, nor by having a majority.  It only comes about through ittibaa`, following the Truth, following the first generations, the generations of the Companions and the Taabi`een and proceeding upon their methodology.  So the like of this person (the first person, he strays into innovation but he only intends the Truth) is destroyed if he does not come back and seek the Truth with its proof from the correct place."

Our Lord says in His Noble Book,

“Every soul shall taste death…” [Al-Anbiyaa`:35]

And

"Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you even if you are in fortresses built up strong and high!" [An-Nisaa`:78]

So this is the inevitable end of all of us. All of us will die and thus embark on our journey to the hereafter. As with every journey, provisions are needed; but for this fateful departure, it is not food, drink or wealth that will be of benefit to us but the deeds that we sent forth during our time in this dunya.

Al-Bukhaari recorded from Anas Ibn Malik (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) that the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said,

“Three things follow the deceased person, and two of them return while one remain behind with him. The things which follow him are his family, his wealth and his deeds. His family and his wealth return while his deeds remain.”

Shaykh Khalid Namazy (hafidhahullaah) will admonish us concerning the reality of death and explain to us how we can prepare for the day we depart from this world and by the Permission of Allaah inspire us to work for the hereafter.

We ask Allaah rectify all of our affairs, to keep us firm upon this deen and to take our souls at the time when He is most pleased with us.

Plant A Plant

 From Anas the Prophet -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- said:

‘There is no Muslim who plants a plant or a tree, or sows a seed and no bird, or human or animal eats from that except that it is a charity for that person.’

[Collected by Bukhari, Muslim & Ahmad]



From Jabir from the Prophet -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam:

‘There is no Muslim who plants a plant or a tree, except that whatever is eaten from it is a charity for him.  Whatever is stolen from that is a charity for him.  Whatever is eaten from it by an animal is a charity for him.  Whatever a bird eats is a charity for him, no one suffers a loss except that it will be a charity for him till the Day of Judgement.’

[Collected by Muslim]



 From Anas -Radi Allaahu anhu- from the Prophet -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- said:

‘If the final hour comes and one of you has a small date-palm plant in his hand, and if you can plant it before you stand then plant it.’

Allaah, the Almighty said,

"And backbite not one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allaah. Verily, Allaah is the One Who forgives and accepts repentance, Most Merciful.'' [Soorah Hujuraat: 12]

“Backbiting was sternly warned against, and this is why Allaah the Exalted and Most Blessed compared it to eating the flesh of a dead human being. Just as you hate eating the flesh of a dead person, on account of your nature; so hate backbiting, on account of your religion. The latter carries a punishment that is worse than the former.” [Taken from Tafseer Ibn Kathir]

Elaborating on what encompasses backbiting, Abu Hurayrah (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) said: The Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said,

"Do you know what is backbiting?'' The Companions said: "Allaah and His Messenger know better.'' Thereupon he said, "Backbiting is talking about your (Muslim) brother in a manner which he dislikes.'' It was said to him: "What if my (Muslim) brother is as I say.'' He said, "If he is actually as you say, then that is backbiting; but if that is not in him, that is slandering.''
[Muslim].

So how many of us fall into this great sin, perhaps without even recognizing it! It is incumbent upon us to be diligent in safeguarding ourselves against this destructive affair.

Shaykh al-Qaleesee (hafidhahullaah) will endeavour to clarify exactly what constitutes backbiting and slander and by the Permission of Allaah we will all strive to be mindful of what we utter and be encouraged to speak a good word or remain silent.

We ask Allaah to make us from those who are devoutly obedient to Him and we seek refuge in Him from ever going astray.
