Shaikh Rabee Bin Haadi (may Allaah preserve him) said, ”Allaah (The Most High) said:
وَلَا تَرۡكَنُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ فَتَمَسَّكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ
And incline not toward those who do wrong, lest the Fire should touch you.
[Hud: Ayah 113]
[The word (ظلم –wrong) in (this ayah) can (mean) disbelief; it can (mean) bidah and it can be (فسوق i.e. sinful-immoral behaviour) because (ظلم) is applicable to all these types of (affairs). So we refrain from inclining towards the evil doers, the people of bidah, the disbelievers, the secularists and other than them. And we protect ourselves, our Aqeedah and that which Allaah has bestowed upon us of Imaan and sound religion.
It is sufficient for us to remember that the Salaf fled from Fitan- not mixing, sitting and debating with them (i.e. the people of fitan). And even amongst them, such as the likes of Ayyoub As-Sakhtiyaanee and ibn Seereen did not use to listen to the speech of those (people of bidah). And when Ibn Seereen was asked: “Why do you not speak; why do you not listen to them?” He said: “Indeed, my heart is not in my hands! I am not in control of my heart; I fear for myself that I may be misguided.”
So the likes of these Imaams feared fitna and deviation for themselves; but you the miskeen possess bravery to enable you to challenge ahlul bidah….! Many people say: “We sit with ahlul ahwaa and we take (from them); we distinguish between truth and falsehood; we take what is truth and abandon what is falsehood;” whilst he (i.e. the utterer of this speech) is a miskeen who can neither distinguish between truth and falsehood nor is he in control of his heart. How many a young person has been put to trial through this satanic view and thus he (becomes) lowered and reverts back on his heels (into misguidance) and depraved, and Allaah’s Aid is sought. He falls prey in the enclosures of the people of fitan! Therefore it is obligated on a student of knowledge not to (consider) himself safe from ahlul bidah; for indeed he is not more knowledgeable than Ayyoub and Ibn Seereen, nor can he reach their station (in knowledge, piety etc) and those who followed them.

Hammaad Bin Salamah (rahimahullaah)
He is Hammaad Bin Salamah Bin Deenaar, Abu Salamah Al-Basree–the protégé of the household of Rabee Bin Maalik Ibn Handhala from the Bani Tameem clan. He was born in the year 91AH and died on Tuesday the 19th of Dhul Hijjah in the year 167AH. He was an Imaam in the science of recitation (of the Qur’aan etc); an Imaam in Hadeeth; an Imaam in the (Arabic) language; an eloquent jurist; an Imaam in the Sunnah and the first of those who authored books. Abu Haatim Ibn Hibbaan (rahimahullaah) said about him: ‘’There were not amongst the contemporaries of Hammaad Bin Salamah at Basra someone like him in virtue, (uprightness) in the religion, in piety, knowledge, authorship, in gathering and compiling knowledge, firmness upon the Sunnah and in subduing the people of bidah. And none defamed him during his time except a Mu’tazilee Qadaree or a Jahmee innovator, due to what he manifested of the authentic Sunnah which was rejected by the Mutazilah. Imaam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal (rahimahullaah) said: ‘’If you see a man jeering at Hammaad Bin Salamah, then suspect his Islaam (i.e. such a person is upon some sort of deviation), because he was harsh against the innovators. And indeed Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) provided (evidence establishing) that Hammaad Ibn Salamah authored a book on the (topic of) Asmaa Was Sifaat.
Muhammad Bin Salaam (rahimahullaah)
He is Muhammad Bin Salaam Ibn Al-Farj Abu Abdillaah Al-Beekandiy. He was born in the year 161AH and died on Sunday 8th in the month of Safar 225AH. He was a Shaikh of (Imaam) Bukhaari and he narrated from him in his Saheeh (i.e. Saheeh Al-Bukhaari). He was from those given comprehension in knowledge and he was from the Imaams of the Athar (i.e. possessors’ of knowledge of the ahaadeeth and the narrations of the Sahaabah).
Muhammad Ibn Ahmad An-Najjaar (rahimahullaah) said: ”Ibn Salaam had authorships in every sphere of knowledge (i.e. knowledge of the sharia).”
Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) mentioned his (Ibn Salaam’s) Book [titled: As-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah] in Al-Fataawaa Al-Kubraa 5/4140]. Shaikh Abdus Salaam Burgess (rahimahullaah) stated that Ibn Salaam’s biography can be found in [سيراعلام نبلاء10/656]
Abu Ubaid Ibn Al-Qaasim Bin Salaam
He (rahimahullaah) was a roman slave. Shaikh Abdus Salaam Burgess said: Neither his lineage nor his family being Non-Arab harmed him, for he was one of the pillars of knowledge of the sharia and a linguist. He was born in the year 159AH and died in the year 224AH. He used to divide the night into three parts–he prayed in the first, slept in the second and wrote books in the third.
Al-Ameer Abdullaah Ibn Taahir-the Ameer of khuraasaan-said: The (distinguished) people are four (in their specific eras); Ibn Abbaas in his era, Ash-Shabee in his era, Al-Qaasim ibn Ma’n in his era and Abu Ubaid in his era.
(Imaam) Ahmad (rahimahullah) said: Abu Ubaid is an Ustaadh.
(Imaam) Daaraqutni (rahimahullah) said: ‘’He (i.e. Abu Ubaid) is a trustworthy Imaam and a mountain (of knowledge).
His book (Al-Eemaan) was disseminated by Shaikh Albaanee (rahimahullah).

Sufyaan Ath-Thawree (rahimahullaah) said, ‘’Be mindful of Allaah’s Anger in three affairs: be mindful of falling short in that which you have been commanded; be mindful that Allaah sees you (always), whilst you are not pleased with what He has portioned for you (of the dunyah); be mindful that you seek for something from the worldly life and do not find it, so you become angry with your Lord’’.

Ahnaf Ibn Qais was from the people of intelligence and eloquence, and from the notables of the people of Basra. Ibnul Mubaarak (rahimahullaah) said: A man abused Al-Ahnaf, so when he (i.e. the man) finished, he (i.e. Ahnaf) said, ”Allaah concealed much more (than what you said).”

Ibnul Mubaarak (rahimahullaah) was asked about the statement of Luqmaan [alayhis-salaam]: ”If speech is from silver, then silence is from gold”. So he (Ibnul Mubaarak) said, ”It means that if speech in obedience to Allaah is from silver, then silence (in keeping away from) disobedience to Allaah is gold”.

Abu Wahb Al-Marwazee (rahimahullaah) said that he asked Abdullaah Ibnul Mubaarak (rahimahullaah) about pride”, so he said, ”It is to mock at the people”. And he asked him about self-amazement, so he said, ”It is to consider yourself as having something not possessed by others”.

Allaah (The Most High) said:
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تَذْبَحُوا بَقَرَةً ۖ قَالُوا أَتَتَّخِذُنَا هُزُوًا ۖ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ
And (remember) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: “Verily, Allah commands you that you slaughter a cow.” They said, “Do you make fun of us?” He said, “I take Allah’s Refuge from being among Al-Jahilun (the ignorants or the foolish).” [2:67]
That is because the Jaahil (ignorant one) is that one who speaks with a speech that contains no benefit and he is that one who mocks at the people. As for the sensible person, he sees that among the greatest blameworthy traits -which is rebuked by (sound) religion and intellect- is to mock at someone who is a human being like himself. And if he has been favoured over that other person, then this favour necessitates that he thanks Allaah and shows mercy to Allaah’s servants. Therefore, when Musa (alayhis-salaam) said this to them [i.e. I take Allaah’s Refuge from being among the ignorant], they knew that it (i.e. what he commanded them) was truth, so they said:
[ادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا هِيَ -call upon your Lord for us that He may make plain to us what it is!(2:68)]

Allaah (The Most High) said:
وَاسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ ۚ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلَّا عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ
الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلَاقُو رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
And seek help in patience and As-Salat (the prayer) and truly it is extremely heavy and hard except for Al-Khashi’un [i.e. the true believers in Allah – those who obey Allah with full submission, fear much from His Punishment, and believe in His Promise (Paradise, etc.) and in His Warnings (Hell, etc.)]. (They are those) who are certain that they are going to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are going to return. [2:45-46]
[الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلَاقُو رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ- (They are those) who are certain that they are going to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are going to return]: They are certain that they are going to meet their Lord in order to be recompensed for their deeds and that to Him is their return. This is what makes acts of worship easy for them, obligates solace on them during calamities, gives them relief in times of distress and turns them away from evil deeds (i.e. by the Tawfeeq of Allaah).

Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu-anhu) narrated that the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:
“There are seven whom Allaah will shade with His shade on the day when there will be no shade except His: a just ruler; a young man who grows up in the worship of Allaah; a man whose heart is attached to the masjid; two men who love one another for the sake of Allaah and meet and depart based on that; a man who is called by a woman of status and beauty, so he says, ‘’I fear Allaah’’; a man who gives in charity and hides it to the extent that his left hand does not know what his right hand gives; and a man who remembers Allaah when he is alone, and his eyes fill up (with tears).” [Ref 1]
Imaam An-Nawawi (rahimahullaah) stated regarding the statement of the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam): ‘’Two men who love one another for the sake of Allaah and meet and depart based on that’’; its meaning is that they meet based on love of Allaah and depart based on love of Allaah. The reason for their meeting was based on love of Allaah and continued upon that until they departed. They are truthful in their love for one another for the sake of Allaah (The Most High), whilst meeting together and departing (from one another). This hadeeth urges one towards loving for the sake of Allaah and a clarification of its great virtue because loving and hating for the sake of Allaah is from Eemaan. [Ref 2]
