Imaam Al-Awzaa’ee (rahimahullaah) said:

”If Allaah wishes to deprive a slave the blessings of knowledge [i.e. due his  (or her) own fault], Allaah places [الأغاليط] upon the tongue of that person.”(1)

[الأغاليط–they are those obscure and difficult affairs related to the religion, which a person pursues through asking questions in order to pick a quarrel, burdening oneself and harbouring an evil intention through asking questions, which leads to doubts; so quarrel becomes rife and (blameworthy) debate increases.  The one whose desire is limited to the ‘Al-Aghaaleet’ and he has no desire to seek the understanding intended by Allaah and His Messenger, and knowledge of the boundaries of the Sharee’ah that leads to fruitful deeds, then indeed he has wasted his time and has been deprived of the blessings (contained) in knowledge. (2)

A Warning Against The ‘Tobooliyyaat’ and its UK Advocates

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) said:

[الطبوليات ] are those Masaa-il (affairs of the religion) by way of which fame is sought. They are called Tubooliyyaat because it is similar to a Tabl (drum) which has a sound and an echo. So when an odd affair (i.e. an affair that is exaggerated or exceeds the proper boundaries of the Sharee’ah) comes to the people and a (person) becomes famous by way of it, then it becomes as if it is the sound of a drum.

Caution Regarding Recommendations: Do not say so and so is a person of the Sunnah until….

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, The Salaf - Pious Predecessors.

Imaam Barbahaaree (rahimahullaah) said:

‘It is not permitted for a man to say, ‘So and so is a person of the Sunnah’ until he knows that he combines the characteristics of the Sunnah, so it is not said of him, ‘a person of the Sunnah’ until he combines all the Sunnah.’

Shaikh Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) commented on the above statement of Imaam Barbahaaree (rahimahullaah), saying:

Do not give Taskiyah to a person and praise of him, except from knowledge; lest the people become deceived by your praise of him, whilst he is not what (you have stated about him).  So when his real affair and path is clear to you, his knowledge and steadfastness, then you can give him Tazkiyah.  As for giving out praise and recommendation whilst not knowing of anything about him, then this is a dangerous Tazkiyah through which the people will be deceived by this person.

Had only those who give commendations to the people stopped at that (i.e. put it in its proper place), then they would not give recommendation, except for one who fulfils the conditions of giving Tazkiyah; because Tazkiyah is a ‘Witness’, so, if the Tazkiyah is not correct it will be a false witness.

And concerning the statement of Imaam Barbahaaree: ‘until he knows that he combines the characteristics of the Sunnah’

Shaikh Saaleh Al-Fawzaan commented on the above statement saying: The characteristics of the Sunnah are to be in Aqeedah, Knowledge and adherence to the Salafus Saaleh.  But if there is not in him except a single characteristic of the (Sunnah), then he is not judged to be from Ahlus Sunnah on the basis of a single characteristic or one thing, so what about the one who does not have anything from that?

The Mubtadi (Innovator in religious affairs) is the cause of Splitting in the Ummah

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Innovations In Islam (Bidah), Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

Shaikh Zaid Bin Haadi Al-Madkhali (rahimahullaah) said:

It is not permissible for the one who knows something about the innovation of the partisan group Ikhwaan Al-Muslimeen (i.e. The Muslim Brother’-a deviated sect founded by the Soofee Hasan Al-Bannah of Eyypt) or other than them amongst the people of innovation and error that he remains silent about clarifying their affair, even though he has the ability to clarify. That is because refuting the people of innovation and error is obligatory upon those who have the ability to do so amongst the People of Knowledge.   And when (refutation) is established by some of them the obligation is lifted from the rest.

And as for fearing splitting as a result of refutation against the sects, there is no legislated excuse for refraining (i.e. refraining from carrying out such refutation). That is because having love for Ijtimaa (unity upon the sound creed and methodology of the Salaf) is the correct stance and is more deserving to be desired and followed.  The Mubtadi (the innovator) is the cause of splitting in the Ummah because splitting is connected to innovation and unity is connected to the Sunnah.

And the obligation of refutation against the Mukhaalif (i.e. the one in opposition to the truth) is not lifted from the scholar due to anticipation of harm, unless it is harm that he is not able to bear (or repel); then (in this case), Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear.  The earth is not devoid of people of knowledge who will carry out refutation against the innovator and the Mukhaalif.

Imaam Ahmad (rahimahimahullaah): Nothing is equal to knowledge, for the one who corrects his intention

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Purification of The Soul, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, The Salaf - Pious Predecessors, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) stated:

(There) is nothing equal to knowledge, for the one who makes his intention correct (i.e. sincere). So they (i.e. the people) said: And how do (we) make the intention correct (i.e. sincere) O father of Abdullaah?! He said: You make an intention to remove ignorance from yourself and others.

Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to wash and shroud a deceased person?

Answer:

It is permissible for a woman, whilst she is on her menses, to wash (deceased) women and shroud them. And from the men, she is only allowed to wash and shroud her deceased husband. Menstruation is not considered something that can prevent (a woman) from washing a deceased person.

[10] Fataawaa Regarding Women: What is incumbent on a woman if she has a dream in her sleep that she’s having sexual intercourse with a man?

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Family & Women, Fatawa-Rulings, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Question

What is incumbent on a woman to do if she has a dream in her sleep that she’s having sexual intercourse with a man?

 

Answer:

If a man dreams in his sleep that he is having sexual intercourse with a woman, or if a woman dreams in her sleep that a man is having sexual intercourse with her, then there is no blame (i.e. sin) on them. That is because accountability is removed from them in a state of sleep and due to their inability to prevent that.  That because Allaah (The Most High) does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear. And also due to what has been narrated from the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam ) that he said: “The pen (i.e. accountability) is lifted from three (people): The sleeping person until he (or she) wakes up; the insane person until he (or she) returns to sanity and the child until he (or she) reaches the age of puberty. (1) The one who sees such a dream should make Ghusl if he (or she) saw a discharge (i.e. sexual discharge). (2)

It is obligated on the scholars to clarify the reality- Imaam Bin Baaz

Written by abumuaawiyah on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

 Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) said:

It is obligated on the scholars to clarify the reality. They should debate every group and give advice to all, so that they can traverse upon the path Allaah has ordained for His slaves, and the path which His Messenger Muhammad (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) called to. And whoever oversteps this path or remains upon obstinacy, then it is obligatory to expose him…

[8] Fataawaa Regarding Women: Is a woman required to perform Wudhoo after giving her son or daughter a wash? Shaikh Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah)

Written by enamul97@icloud.com on . Posted in Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Family & Women, Fatawa-Rulings, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

If a woman gives her little son or daughter a wash and touches the private part of (the child), it is not obligated on her to perform Wudhoo; rather she only washes her hands. That is because touching the private part without sexual desire does not make Wudhoo obligatory. And it is well known that sexual desire does not come into the thoughts of a woman who gives her children a wash; so after she gives a little girl or boy a wash, she only washes off the impurity on her hands, but Wudhoo is not obligated on her.
