Mutual Rivalry’ By Imaam Ibnul Qayyim

Allaah (The Most High) said:

أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ

The mutual rivalry for piling up of worldly things diverts you

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) stated: It is everything of the worldly things through which the slave engages in rivalry against others—(such as) wealth, status, slaves, buildings, agriculture, knowledge (sought or possessed) for other than sincerity to Allaah or actions (performed) for other than getting close to Allaah.

[Ighaathatul Luhfaan 1/84]

The Misers- Those Who Conceal Allaah’s Bounties!

{الَّذِينَ يَبْخَلُونَ وَيَأْمُرُونَ النَّاسَ بِالْبُخْلِ وَيَكْتُمُونَ مَا آتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ ۗ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَذَابًا مُّهِينًا} [النساء : 37

“Those who are miserly and enjoin miserliness on other men and hide what Allaah has bestowed upon them of His Bounties” [4:37]

Imaam Sadi (rahimahullaah ) said: They refrain from fulfilling the rights obligated on them. “And enjoin miserliness on other men” through their statements and actions. “And hide what Allaah has bestowed upon them of His Bounties” – that is knowledge by way of which the astray are guided and the ignorant are led aright. So they hide it from them and make falsehood apparent to them.

Clarifying The Errors’ by Shaikh Fawzaan…

Clarification must be carried out, especially when the one who erred is one followed or has leadership. It should not be said that errors are narrated and will come to pass, rather it should be said that it is narrated and refuted. That is because it (i.e. refuting error) is sincerity to Allaah, His Book and His Messenger, and it is sincere advice to the leaders of the Muslims”.
