It is the firm belief of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa’ah, which has been corroborated by the texts and the ijmaa’ of Ahlul ‘Ilm, that the punishment or bliss in the grave is a sure reality.

Haanee, the freed slave of ‘Uthmaan (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) related,

Whenever ‘Uthmaan (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) stood at a grave he would weep until his beard became soaked in tears. It was said to him: Paradise and Hell are mentioned to you, and you do not weep, but you weep over this.  So he said: Indeed the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Indeed the grave is the first stopping place for the Hereafter.  So if he is saved therein, then what comes after that is easier than that.  If he is not saved therefrom, then that which comes after is harder.” [Hasan: Related by at-Tirmidhee (no. 2424), and Ibn Maajah (no. 4267), and it has been authenticated by Shaykh al-Albaanee in Takhreejul-Mishkaat (no. 132)]

An-Naasiree (d.652H) - rahimahullaah - said in an-Noorul-Laami’ (no. 110):

‘‘We have eemaan in the Punishment of the Grave and its Bliss…this is the madhhab of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’ah.  So it is obligatory to have ‘Aqeedah in this.’’

Further evidence for this is found in the well-known hadeeth of Al-Bara’ Ibn ‘Aazib (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) where it is stated that it will be said regarding the believing slaves, “…prepare for them a bed in Jannah; clothe them from Jannahand open for them a gate to Jannah. Then there comes to them some of its fragrance and the grave is made wide, as far as they can see.” Conversely, it will be said regarding the disbelievers from mankind, “...prepare for them a bed in Hellfire and open for them a gate to Hellfire. There comes to them some of its heat and hot winds, and the grave is constricted until their ribs are squeezed. [Abu Dawud, Bool on Al-Sunnah,no.4753; and Ahmad, Musnad, vol.4, p.296]

Our Shaykh ‘Abdur Raqeeb al-Ulabi (hafidhahullaah) will admonish us concerning this unequivocal issue based on evidences from the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) upon the understanding of our Pious Predecessors.

We ask Allaah to grant us bliss in our graves and we seek refuge in Him from its punishment.

Many groups present today, from the seventy-two misguided sects warned against by the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam), masquerade as Ahl Sunnah and divide the Salafis with principles that compromise the very core methodology of this blessedda'wah. Many from the people of the sunnah have gone astray due to fanatical attachment to personalities, and due to this disease have disguised the faults of the ones they blind follow in order to validate their falsehood. These misguided personalities have introduced principles into the religion that are not only alien to it but have caused many of the muslimeen to lose their deen (religion). These principles have within them political and personal agendas based on desires and love of fame and this worldly life, amongst many other deficiencies.Shaykh Bakry al-Yaafa'ee will endeavour to distinguish some of t he traits of the pristine da'wah of the people of the sunnah of MuhammadsallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)

We ask Allaah to make us align ourselves to the truth and the people of truth and rid us of the sickness of blind following anyone, and to make us avid followers.

Abu Musaa (radhiyAllaahu ‘anhu) reported:

Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said,

“It is out of reverence to Allaah in respecting an aged Muslim, and the one who commits the Qur’aan to memory and does not exaggerate pronouncing its letters not forgets it after memorizing it, and to respect the just ruler.” [Abu Dawood]

“An aged Muslim here means one who lives a pious life till his old age. The word “Haamil-ul-Qur’aan” translated here as ‘the one who commits the Qur’aan to memory’, who have memorized the complete Qur’aan. That is to say he is not aggressive in putting it into practice and does not take shelter of far-fetched interpretations to justify his own intellectual and religious perversion. This Hadeeth stresses that a pious old man, a Haamil-ul-Qur'aan and a just head of a Muslim government should be respected. Since their respect has been ordained byAllaah, respecting them is in fact revering Allaah.” [Taken from the commentary of the hadeeth in Riyaadh-us-Saaliheen]

Our Noble Shaykh, Muhammad al-Imaam (hafidhahullaah) will expound on this beautiful hadeeth and unlock some of the benefits contained in it; and by the Permission of Allaah we will comprehend the matter and strive to act upon what we learn by honouring those who deserve it.

We ask Allaah, Al-Haqq to guide us to the truth and make us from those who are sincere and humble.

Live Lecture! Shaykh Muhammad al-Imaam: Ascribing to Allaah a Son

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

Muwahhideen Publications is very pleased to announce a LIVE Tele-lecture with the Noble Shaykh Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdullaah al-Imaam (May Allaah Preserve him) who will lecture to us concerning the blasphemy of the christians in them ascribing to Allaah a son, on Tuesday 25^th December, 2012. The Shaykh supervises Markaz Dar-ul-Hadeeth in Ma'bar, Yemen and is one of the major scholars of our time, May Allaah preserve him. This lecture event will be broadcast LIVE in three Masaajid in Trinidad & Tobago and five Masaajid in the U.S. In Trinidad & Tobago: Masjid Ibn 'Abbaas, Tobago, Masjid ul Khaleefah and Masjid us Sunnah, and in the US: Masjid Al-Bukhaari, Florida, Masjid Ibn 'Abbas, Georgia, Masjid Uthaymeen, New Jersey, and Masjid NurAllaah, New York, and Masjid Tawheed, Michigan.

This session will be translated LIVE into English Inshaa’Allaah.

Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta’aala says in His Noble Book,

 “And they say: “The Most Beneficent (Allaah) has begotten a son (or offspring or children). Indeed you have brought forth (said) a terrible evil thing. Whereby the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins. That they ascribe a son (or offspring or children) to the Most Beneficent (Allaah).” [Soorah Maryam: 88-91]

Explaining these powerful verses,

Ibn Jareer reported that Ibn `Abbaas said concerning Allaah's statement,

“Whereby the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins, that they ascribe a son to the Most Gracious.”

"Verily, the heavens, the earth, the mountains and all creatures - except for humans and Jinns -are frightened by the associating of partners with Allaah. Creation will almost cease existing before the association of partners with Allaah, due to His Greatness."

Ad-Dahhak said, "This means to be split apart into pieces due to the fear of the magnificence of Allaah.''

 `Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Zayd Ibn Aslam said, "This is due to its anger on behalf of Allaah, the Mighty and Sublime.''

This is a grave and sinister claim of the christians who lie against Allaah and His Messengers by saying Allaahhas taken ‘Eesa Ibn Maryam (‘alayhis salaam) as His son. Obscene is their statement and filthy their belief. Far above is Allaah from that which they attribute to Him. These statements are not befitting for the One Who has no co-equal in His creation; for all of creation return to Him as slaves.

And on this day, the day in which the kuffaar (non-Muslims) commemorate this blasphemy by celebrating, according to them, the birth of ‘Eesaa Ibn Maryam, our Shaykh Muhammad al-Imaam (hafidhahullaah) will explain to us the gravity of this heinous statement of theirs, the extent of its severity and admonish us concerning the correct belief of Muwahhideen (The People of Tawheed) on this topic.

We ask Allaah to correct our belief and guide us to the straight path; the path of those whom He has favoured and not the path of those who have earned His anger or of those who have gone astray.
