✏️ SHAYKHU-L-ISLAM IBNU TAYMIYYAH (may Allah have mercy on him) said: IBNU 📛 “Among people are those who engage in backbiting just to please their companions, friends, or clans, even though they know that the one being backbitten is innocent of what is being said, or that only part of it may be true. However, they think that if they were to object, the gathering would be disrupted, and the attendees would find them…

تأليف أبي عمرو يسلم الأبيني One of the primary arguments put forth by those who permit digital images is the use of analogy (qiyās) between digital images and reflections. However, the key issue with applying qiyās in the case of equating cameras with reflections (rather than with drawing or sculpture) lies in the absence of a shared ‘illah (effective legal cause) between the compared elements. The author of…

Words Imām Al-Albāni—may Allāh have mercy on him—said: «بعض المرضى يعافون بمجرد أن يسمعوا كلاما لطيفا من طبيبهم؛ فأولى وأولى أن يكون طالب العلم الذي يتولى إرشاد الناس وهدايتهم إلى اتباع السنة واتباع ما كان عليه سلفنا الصالح رضي الله عنهم ، أن يكون رفيقا في دعوتهم لطيفا في معاملتهم» "Some patients recover merely upon hearing kind words from their doctor; it is even more fitting, therefore, that the student of…

Al-Hasan ibn Ali رضي الله عنه said: «الطريق واضح ولكن الهوى فاضح» "The path is clear, but desire exposes (people's realities)." [Az-Zuhd Al-Kabīr by Al-Bayhaqī, 7/35] With the advent of definitive evidence, the unveiling of the true path, the fulfillment of clarification, and the affirmation of conclusive proof—yet still, there are among humankind those who have slipped and strayed from the right way. Their…

Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili hafidahullah states: Associating with people of innovation is dangerous, for whoever sits with an innovator is rarely safe. Sufyān Ath-Thawri said: 'Whoever sits with a person of innovation will not be safe from one of three things: (1) either he becomes a trial fitnah) for others — for if he is seen entering and exiting the gatherings of people of desires while being regarded as a…

May Allāh reward you and be generous to you. Some people say: 'Since an ignorant person is excused due to ignorance, it is better for me to remain ignorant so that if I fall into something forbidden, I will be excused due to my ignorance.' Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili hafidahullah: This statement itself is evidence of your ignorance—truly and genuinely ignorant. Certainly, seeking knowledge is an individual…

The science of Al-Jarḥ wa At-Taʿdīl, in its foundational aspect, is a matter of consensus and is binding upon us. We are required to adhere to it as an established principle. However, when it comes to certain subsidiary or detailed applications within the field, the rulings may vary and can fall under the broader classifications found in other areas of Sharīʿah, such as: 1. Issues over which there is إجماع, 2.…

Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili hafidahullah states: Therefore, it is a well-established principle among scholars—and this is a very important matter—that truth is not to be sought from the people of falsehood. However, if the truth comes, it is to be accepted from everyone. Pay close attention to these two points: one, we do not seek truth from the people of falsehood; we do not go to them for the truth, as they…

Question: Esteemed Sheikh, what is the ruling on abandoning one’s parents if it serves a beneficial purpose? Sheikh Fawzan hafidahullah: It is not permissible to abandon one’s parents(1) except in specific cases: if they are disbelievers, as Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) said, “And I will distance myself from you and from whatever you invoke besides Allah, and I will supplicate to my Lord.” Or if they are…

Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili hafidahullah states: The term arhām (kin) in the context of maintaining family ties (صلة الرحم) refers to a person’s relatives from both the paternal and maternal sides. Thus, paternal uncles are considered kin, as are their sons, maternal uncles, and their sons. Scholars have stated that the closer the relative, the greater the obligation to maintain ties with them. All relatives should…

Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili hafidahullah states: Likewise, according to the more correct opinion, compatibility (kafā’ah) in soundness of religious belief is a necessary condition. As such, it is not permissible for a Sunni woman to be married off to a man from among the people of innovation, especially those associated with manifest innovations such as the Khawārij and similar groups. Nor is it permissible for a…

Shaykh Abu Amr Al-Hajoori hafidhahullah said: "The mumayyi' is the one who does not take matters with determination and firm resolve, rather they break away infront of him while his goal is to please this one and not to anger that one. As a result, his da'wah goes to waste and it becomes futile due to him resigning from speaking the truth, or committing sins, and maybe even being silent from a great duty; that is…

He says: What is your opinion of those who claim that books of refutations harden the hearts? Sheikh Salih Al-Fawzan hafidahullah: No, abandoning refutations is what hardens the hearts. This is because people live upon error and misguidance, which causes their hearts to harden(1). But when the truth is clarified and falsehood is refuted, this—without a doubt—is among the things that soften hearts. _ (1) Mistakes…
