Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah.
Allah Almighty says: "Such is the grasp of your Lord when He grasps the towns while they are doing wrong. Indeed, His grasp is painful, severe."
And the Prophet, peace be upon him, says: "Allah gives respite to the oppressor until, when He seizes him, He does not let him go."
How much transgression, oppression, ignorance, and…
BENEFIT 527: A challenge to those who reject the Sunnah
Allah Almighty says:
{وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْمَحِيضِ قُلْ هُوَ أَذًى فَاعْتَزِلُوا النِّسَاءَ فِي الْمَحِيضِ وَلَا تقربوهن حَتَّى يطهرن}
“They ask you about menstruation. Say: it is harm, so keep away from women during menstruation and do not approach them until they are pure.”
The apparent meaning of the Ayah is general and could be understood as requiring complete avoidance of women during menstruation—just as…

Imam An-Nawawi rahimahullah mentions in his explanation of Sahih Muslim, under the Hadith of Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri - من رأى منكم منكرا:
((قال العلماء رضي الله عنهم: ولا يسقط عن المكلف الأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر لكونه لا يفيد في ظنه بل يجب عليه فعله ، فإن الذكرى تنفع المؤمنين. وقد قدمنا أن الذي عليه الأمر والنهي لا القبول))

Is It Appropriate to Address Jinns during Khutbahs & sermons?
Question:
Can the khateeb address the jinn in his sermons and lessons?
Sheikh Yahya Al-Hajoori
Allah, the Most High, said: “So that I may warn you with it and whoever it reaches.”
This means that when the khateeb speaks to the audience, his message is for both jinn and humans. He does not need to specifically say, “O jinn… O jinn…” It is better and…
Therefore, there is no real problem in understanding this hadith. The phrase “I have prepared for My righteous servants” does not mean all of Paradise’s blessings. It refers to a special part of its b
So some of the blessings of Paradise have been made known, and some remain completely unknown.

Jannah contains “What No Eye Has Seen or Ear Has Heard”...But Haven't Some Seen Jannah?
Sheikh Rashad Adh-Dhali'ee hafidhahullah said (slightly paraphrased)
This hadith contains a confusion. Some people were confused by it, saying: It is known that Jibreel saw the blessings of Paradise when Allah created it. Allah told him, “Go and look at it and what I have prepared in it for My servants.” So he went and saw it.…
Ibn Kathir said: “May Allah curse him if he indeed said this.” The point is that his deviance became widely known and remembered.
Likewise, the warning here is that if Al-Maghamisi does not sincerely repent, it's feared he may follow the same path of those before him whose reputations collapsed because of their deviations.
Another example is that of ‘Abdullah Al-Qaseemi. He once wrote strongly in defense of Islam, and because of that he was granted Saudi citizenship and financial support during King Saud’s time. But later he became arrogant,…
He follows the Azhar approach, rationalists, Sufis, and political activists. So he will not bring anything original. At most, he will try to revive ideas that have already fallen and collapsed.
But he will not succeed. As long as scholars of Ahlus-Sunnah are present, they will expose error and clarify the truth.
The call to “renewal” that he speaks about is not new. Many groups in history claimed renewal:
Wasil ibn ‘Ata’ and ‘Amr ibn ‘Ubayd separated from Hasan Al-Basri under the slogan of renewal.
Bishr Al-Mirreesi, Al-Ja‘d ibn Dirham, and Jahm ibn Safwan opposed Ahlus-Sunnah in the name of…
Out of ignorance, he says that “Ta-Ha” and “Ya-Sin” are names of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Shaykh Al-Fawzan corrected this and said that such claims are common speech, not the view of scholars.
He also permits music and defends it, even though the Prophet (peace be upon him) said that near the end of time there will be people who declare lawful adultery, silk (for men), and musical instruments. When asked for his evidence that music is lawful, he said: “If music were forbidden, Allah would have said in the Qur’an: ‘Avoid music.’”
This is not a sound argument. Many rulings are established in the Sunnah…
By Allah, that is false. The Isma‘ilis do not truly believe in Allah as Lord, nor in Islam as religion, nor in the Qur’an as revelation. I have refuted them in my book “The Beliefs of the Esoteric Sec
You believe that Allah rose over His Throne and that Allah has the names and attributes mentioned in the Qur’an and Sunnah. They do not believe this. In reality, they do not believe in Allah, His Messenger, or His Book in the true sense.
Al-Ghazali said about them: “Outwardly they show Shi‘ism, but inwardly they are pure disbelief.”
He speaks similarly about the Ibadis. He is trying to mix truth with falsehood,…
The Qur’an has been preserved by Allah. The Sunnah has been preserved in authentic collections such as Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. Other books of narrations have been carefully examined by scho
So what exactly does he want to review?
If someone wants to re-examine an issue, he returns to the Qur’an and Sunnah. If he finds a statement of Malik, he measures it against the Qur’an and Sunnah. If he finds a statement of Ahmad, he measures it against the Qur’an and Sunnah. All opinions must be supported by evidence from the Book and Sunnah—they are not evidence by themselves.
Legal principles must also be…
As for the four well-known madh-habs—often described as Sunni madh-habs—we say: our duty is to follow the Qur’an and the Sunnah, not to show blind loyalty to Ahmad, Malik, Ash-Shafi‘i, or Abu Hanifah,
Sufyan once had a madh-hab, but it disappeared. Al-Awza‘i had a madh-hab, but it also faded away because few people followed it. The point is that strict sectarian adherence (tamadhhub) was not originally part of our religion and law, so how can someone call for creating a new school?

The rest of the Companions and the early generations followed the same way: following the Qur’an and Sunnah and avoiding innovations. It has been said: “Follow and do not innovate; you have been sufficed.” Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud rebuked the people of Masjid banee Haneefah for introducing new practices, saying: “You have brought a dark innovation. Either you are more guided than the Messenger of Allah, or you have…

Salih Al-Maghamsi has many deviations. What led us to speak about him tonight—although, praise be to Allah, I already wrote a treatise about him in Makkah (may Allah protect it and all Muslim lands) around the year 1437 or 1438 AH, and we have spoken about him more than once—is that the man pretends to be a scholar.…
Praise be to Allah. We send peace and blessings upon the Messenger of Allah. I bear witness that there is no diety worthy of worship except Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.

Mistakes of Students of Knowledge That I Have Seen in the Field Over Three Decades
All praise is due to Allāh, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allāh.
1⃣. Neglecting the foundation of knowledge and practice, including correcting one’s inner self and purifying the soul, while being busy with the mistakes of scholars.

من ذا الذي ما ساء قط
ومن له الحُسنى فقط
