How much worse, then, when certain individuals take the correct Arabic language and its proper structures and corrupt them with such distorted expressions and faulty constructions—corrupting the tongu
The noble Sheikh Fat-ḥ Al-Qadasi ḥafidhahullāh drew attention to this linguistic error, writing:
تنبيه على خطأ لغوي في إطلاق المنحرفين لفظ "الحجاورة" على طلاب الشيخ يحيى الحجوري:
نقول: إن كان هذا الجمع جمعاً للحجوري مراداً به المنسوب إليه بتعليم ونحوه فيقال: الحجوريون. أما إطلاق لفظ: حجاورة فليس بصحيح لغة لأمور:
الأول: أن الجمع الصحيح هو ما تقدم وهو (حجوريون).
الثاني: أنه لو فرض جمعهم على منتهى الجموع (مفاعل)…
الحمد لله رب العالمين

Last night, after Tahajjud, I received a screenshot regarding some negative remarks on X concerning 'Madrasatuna' and Sheikh Yaḥyā. As I am not on X myself, I reached out to one of the brothers involved to better understand the situation.
His response وفقه الله, as you can see in the screenshot, is sufficient. Thus, let us set…
Du‘ā’ is an essential act of worship even when we know certain events will unfold according to divine decree. The fact that trials will continue or that certain prophecies will come to pass does not mean that we abandon Du‘ā’.

Do not doubt Allāh’s decree, my brother. Doubting Allāh’s decree is disbelief. Doubting Allāh’s power is disbelief. Presuming to speak on behalf of Allāh without knowledge is disbelief. Despairing of
BENEFIT 381: In some masājid, supplications are raised every Friday, in every Qunoot, and in every Witr, people supplicate: "O Allāh, deal with the Zionists." But why is the supplication of millions o
Sheikh Adnan Al-Masqari hafidahullah responds:
What do you truly know? What do you understand? This is making claims about Allāh without knowledge. May Allāh guide you! When you claim that Allāh has not answered the supplications of the Muslims, or that He has not responded—what knowledge do you have?
Allāh, the Almighty, possesses knowledge of the unseen and who knows, perhaps He is punishing the oppressor by…
BENEFIT 380: Can Ahlul-Bid’ah Be Classified Under (المؤلفة قلوبهم) for Zakah if There’s Hope They Will Embrace the Sunnah and Abandon Their Innovation?
Sheikh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (رحمه الله) was asked whether Zakah can be given to Ahlul-Bid’ah, to which he responded:
"Innovations are of two types:
1. Innovations that constitute disbelief (بدعة مكفرة): These are innovations that remove a person from the fold of Islam. It is not permissible to give Zakah to such individuals. Examples include those who believe the Prophet ﷺ responds to supplications, those who seek aid…
BENEFIT 379: Men Are Not Permitted to Wear Clothing Below the Ankles
Question: When you tell someone, "Whatever is below the ankles of the lower garment is in the Fire," they respond by citing the Prophet’s ﷺ statement to Abu Bakr: "You are not among those who let their garments drag out of arrogance."
Sheikh Najeeb Ash-Shar’abi ḥafidhahullāh responds:
This is because Abu Bakr (may Allāh be pleased with him) did not do so intentionally. Rather, his lower garment would loosen, and…
Some savvy entrepreneurs have devised a clever way to exploit legal loopholes and minimise their tax liabilities. Their strategy is built on three key steps:
Step 1: Set up a Charity Organisation
By setting up a charity, businesses can benefit from tax deductions and gain access to grants and funding from governments, NGOs, and corporate sponsors.
Step 2: Set Up a Mosque Within the Same Building

When discussing two polar extremes, it's important to ensure that you are actually in the middle. If someone leans toward one side, they might view those that are actually in the middle as extreme.
BENEFIT 378: Can one follow the way of the Prophet ﷺ and make no enemies along the way?
Allāh ﷻ said:
{ وَكَذَ ٰلِكَ جَعَلۡنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِیٍّ عَدُوࣰّا شَیَـٰطِینَ ٱلۡإِنسِ وَٱلۡجِنِّ یُوحِی بَعۡضُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ بَعۡضࣲ زُخۡرُفَ ٱلۡقَوۡلِ غُرُورࣰاۚ وَلَوۡ شَاۤءَ رَبُّكَ مَا فَعَلُوهُۖ فَذَرۡهُمۡ وَمَا یَفۡتَرُونَ }

Strive Throughout the Last Ten Nights—Not Just the Odd Ones!
Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (raḥimahullāh) was asked about the best time to seek Laylatul Qadr. He responded (paraphrasing):
"Laylatul Qadr occurs within the last ten nights of Ramaḍhān, as is authentically reported from the Prophet ﷺ, who said:
((تَحَرَّوْا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فِي الْعَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ))

BENEFIT 377: Why is Abu Ishaq Al-Huwaini an innovator?
🤍. He declared that someone who persists upon sin to be a disbeliever, which is from the beliefs of the Khawarij.
He said: "As for a person who persists in sin while knowing that it is sinful, this means he has deemed it permissible! This is clear disbelief! For example, if someone says, 'I know that usury is forbidden, but I will engage in it,' or 'I know that adultery is forbidden, but I will commit it'—this is…
BENEFIT 376: What is the criterion for istihlal (deeming something permissible) that results in disbelief?
Sheikh Uthaymeen raḥimahullāh said:
Istihlal refers to believing that something Allah has forbidden is lawful. When it comes to practical istihlal—acting upon this belief—its ruling depends on the nature of the action:
-> If the action itself constitutes disbelief, then the person is deemed a disbeliever and has apostatised.
-> For instance, if someone engages in riba (usury) while recognising that it is…
Question: We seek clarification regarding the case of ’Ali ibn Hassan Al-Halabi, as people are divided in their views about him.
Sheikh Abdulḥamīd Az-Zu'kari hafidahullāh:
The clarification is that he is one who has been overcome by fitnah (maftoon), from the people of innovation who have deviated from the straight path.
Question: what is the condition of the one who considers ’Ali ibn Hassan Al-Halabi a Sunni while still taking knowledge from him?
Sheikh Abu Bilal hafidahullah responds:
’Ali ibn Hassan—may Allāh have mercy on him—was severely criticised with verified statements matching reality, indicating that he deviated from the goodness he once upheld during the time of Sheikh Al-Albani—may Allāh have mercy on him.

If an innovator passes away and their innovations disappear with them, there would be little reason to discuss them after their death. However, when an innovator dies, only their body is buried, while their innovations continue to live on in the hearts, speech, and actions of their followers. This is why Ahlus-Sunnah continue to clarify their misguidances even after their death.
﴿لِّیَهۡلِكَ مَنۡ هَلَكَ عَنۢ…
May Allah have mercy on him, pardon him, and forgive us all. Perhaps he has set foot in Jannah while we may not—but despite this, as an innovator, he must be warned against. His deviations and violations against Salafiyyah must be exposed, and people should not be deceived by him. The scholars of the past have always clarified the errors of those who strayed, no matter their knowledge or status.

The example of those who lack patience and attempt to hasten the establishment of a masjid through unlegislated means is similar to that of a woman who, unwilling to wait for a suitable proposal, takes it upon herself to actively seek suitors through shameful means—disregarding the command of Allāh:
"And let those who do not find the means for marriage keep themselves chaste until Allāh enriches them from His…
"Necessity" is often used as a justification to transgress Allāh's limits. This refutation by Abu Harun Muhammad At-Taweel serves as a strong rebuttal against Salih Al-Munajjid (IslamQA) for allowing
