Covering Oneself After Tawbah

Imām Ibn Rajab رحمه الله stated:

“The majority of the Scholars hold that the origin regarding the one who has repented from a sin is that he covers himself and doesn’t confess to committing the sin to anyone. Rather, he repents in a manner that’s between him and Allāh.”

[Fath Al-Bārī 1/76]

ستر النفس بعد التوبة❄ ا•┈••✦ 🌟 ✦••┈•ا ❄

قال الإمام ابن رجب رحمه الله

وجمهور العلماء على أن من تاب من ذنب ، فالأصل أن يستر على نفسه ولا يقر به عند أحد ، بل يتوب منه فيما بينه وبين الله عز وجل

[(فتح الباري لابن رجب (٧٦/١]

The Noble Scholar Shaykh Sālih Al-‘Usaymī حفظه الله stated:

“If you don’t have the ability to speak the truth don’t speak with falsehood. Indeed the one who is incapable (of speaking the truth) is excused but when the person speaks with falsehood by choice he becomes destroyed.”

The Noble Scholar Shaykh Nāsirud-Dīn Al-Albānī رحمه الله stated:

“By Allāh, right now I have reached the age of seventy four and I (still) fear for myself the Fitnah of the women. So how much more so for other than us from the youth.”

[Silsilah Al-Hudā wan-Nūr Recording #212]

{الخوف من فتنة النساء }

‏قال العلامة الإمام المحدث الشيخ ناصر الدين الألباني- رحمه الله

‏والله إني بلغت الآن الرابعة والسبعين من العمر ، أخشى على نفسي من فتنة النساء ، فما بال غيرنا من الشباب

[( سلسلة الهدى والنور : الشريط (٢١٢ ].

The Noble Shaykh Rabī Al-Madkhalī حفظه الله stated:

“The Scholar could make a mistake in the criticizing or praising (of a person). His brother is to correct his mistake in this. The Scholar might criticize without a valid criticism so the critiquing Scholars reject his criticism being just to the one who was criticized. There has come for you (many) examples (for this point).”

[Al-Majmū V.9 Pg.150]

قال العلامة الشيخ ربيع المدخلي -حفظه الله

العالِم قد يُخطِئ في الجرح أو في التعديل فيصحِّح أخوه خَطَأه في هذا أو هذا، وقد يجرح العالم بغيرِ جارح فيَرُدّ العلماء النُّقّاد جَرْحَه إنصافًا لمن وقع عليه هذا الجرح، وقد مرّت بك الأمثلة
