القلب العامر السليم والقلب الخرب

القلب العامر السليم والقلب الخرب

:قال الإمام ابن عثيمين-رحمه الله

:قيل لأحد الصحابه -رضي الله عنهم
!إن اليهود يقولون :نحن لا نوسوس في صلاتنا؟ وأنتم أيها المسلمون توسوسون في الصلاة

:فقال كلمة عجيبة قال
!وما يصنع الشيطان بقلب خراب فالقلب الخراب لا يأتيه الشيطان ليخربه
.لأنه قد خرب إنما يخرب القلب العامرالسليم، حتى يدمره

.فنسأل الله أن يعيذنا وإياكم من الشيطان الرجيم

:المصــدر
[من كتاب التعليق على صحيح مسلم) [1\376)

5 Steps To Correcting The Mistake Which The Salafi and Other Than Him Has Fallen Into

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn ‘Umar Baazmool (may Allah preserve him) stated:

The First Step: Acknowledging the reality that every child of Aadam makes mistakes and the best of those who make mistakes are those who repent often. This is the first step in dealing with the mistake when the Salafi or other than him from amongst the people have fallen into the mistake.

The Second Step: We look at the matter which the person has fallen into; is it from the matters of Ijtihaad? Or is it from the matters where the evidence is apparent which mandates traversing towards it? This matter is in need of a (well-grounded) student of knowledge or a scholar to whom we raise up the affair of this brother. We say to him: Oh Shaykh, so and so made a mistake (in such and such matter). How do we deal with him? How should our stance be regarding him? That’s because it’s possible that, that which this brother has fallen into is from the matters of Ijtihaad and not from the matters which mandate him to traverse towards that which the evidence indicates.

The Ruling on Assassinating the Cartoonist Who Draws Evil Pictures of The Prophet

Question posed to the ‘Allaamah Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan (may Allah preserve him):

Question:
Is it permissible to assassinate the disbelieving cartoonist who is known to draw the evil pictures of the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam)?

Answer:
Assassination is not a sound way (to deal with this matter). This increases them in evil and anger against the Muslims. However, that which defeats them is the refutation of their doubts and the clarification of their shameful affairs. As for aiding with arms and weapons, and establishing Jihaad in the way of Allaah, then that is (a prerogative) for the Muslim ruler. Continue reading

Eating From the Food Prepared for Thanksgiving

A question Abu Yusuf Khaleefah posed to Shaykh Mustafaa Mubrim (may Allah preserve him) today:

Shaykh, I work in a hospital and there are Muslim patients here. Today the administration had food cooked for the patients for an early Thanksgiving celebration. Being that Thanksgiving is really next week and not today, can the Muslims eat from this food?

The Shaykh answered:

No. It is not allowed for the Muslims to eat from this food since it has been cooked for the reason of celebrating Thanksgiving. The major scholars like Shaykh Saalih and others have fataawa regarding the prohibition of eating from the food that has been prepared for the celebration of the holidays of the kuffaar. If you eat from that food, this means you have joined with them in the celebration of the holiday.

Abu Yusuf then asked the Shaykh (may Allah preserve him):

What about the leftover food? For example, can they eat from that food tomorrow, after the celebration is over? Continue reading

The Fraudulent Salafi

The Noble Shaykh Rabee’ Ibn Haadi al-Madkhali (may Allah preserve him) stated:

Trials and tribulations expose the fraudulent Salafi. It exposes his reality and his fraudulence. Therefore be witnesses for Allah (testifying to the truth) even if it be against yourselves, your parents or your relatives.

Repelling the Evil Before it Takes Place is Easier than Repelling it After it has Happened

Al-Imam Abu Haneefah (may Allah have mercy upon him) stated:

“It is befitting for the Imam (the Muslim ruler), when the news reaches him that the Khawaarij are preparing for combat, to seize them and imprison them in order that they leave this off. This is due to the fact that repelling the evil before it takes place is easier than repelling it after it has happened.” Continue reading

From The Great Calamities: Weakness of One’s Zeal in Seeking Knowledge and The Cure for It

Question posed to al-Imam Shaykh ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy upon him):

Noble Shaykh, one experiences weakness in one’s zeal and laziness when it comes to seeking knowledge. What are the means and the ways which push one to have a high zeal for and diligence in [seeking] knowledge?

The Shaykh answered:

Having weakness in one’s zeal for seeking the legislated knowledge is from the great calamities. There are matters that are a must (in order to remove this calamity).

The first matter is: Sincerity for Allah in seeking the knowledge. When the person is sincere in seeking knowledge for Allah’s sake, and he knows that he will be rewarded for seeking it and that he will be on the third level (of the people) from this ummah, his zeal will become vigorous. Allah has mentioned: Continue reading
