To all my Somali brothers & Sisters celebrating Independence day today...'Eid is next week Saturday!
Anas ibn Malik radhiyallahu 'anhu reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina during two days in which they were celebrating, so he ﷺ enquired:
مَا هَذَانِ الْيَوْمَانِ؟
“What are these two days?”
They said:
كُنَّا نَلْعَبُ فِيهِمَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ
“We would celebrate these two days in the…
Abu Bakr Ibnul 'Arabi Al-Maliki rahimahullah said:
(ليس في فضل الأضحية حديث صحيح، وقد روى الناس فيها عجائب لم تصح)
“There is no authentic Hadith on the virtue of Udh-hiyah, and people have relayed astonishing reports concerning it which are inauthentic.”
['Aridhatul Ahwadhi Bi Sharh At-Tirmidhi (6/ 288)]
Sheikh Ibn Baz rahimahullah was asked about the above statement, to which he responded:
ما أذكر شيئًا…
Do not put the Manhaj of the Salaf aside because of the errors of SPUBS
My dear brothers and sisters. Again I keep looking at the situation regarding the contemporary Da’wah scene and without fear of reproach it is without doubt that SPUBS have run afoul with the following:
i. Mass Tabdee’ and warning against those who don’t tow their line even if they are scholars who ascribe and follow the methodology of the Salaf.
ii. Hysterical fanaticism to Shaikh Rabee’ regarding Jarh Wa…
If minor shirk is the worst type of major sin, why does it go unnoticed?
Maybe it's because we don't give much attention to studying Tawheed, or maybe we do study Tawheed but we don't study it as it should be studied, or maybe we do study it as it should be studied but only theoretically, without applying it in our lives.
But how can that be when our primary existence is to merely establish and realise Tawheed?
Know ya Muslim, that it is not possible to have a strong grasp of Tawheed…
{ كُلَّ یَوۡمٍ هُوَ فِی شَأۡنࣲ }
“Day in and day out He has something to bring about.”
He raises the ranks of some,
while lowering the ranks of others.
He brings joy and happiness to some,
while testing others with misfortune.
He takes the souls of some,
while bringing new life into existence.
On this day that Allah took the soul of our Sheikh's father, may Allah have mercy upon him, He has also blessed me with a…
A question many have been asking
The answer to this question lies in the following two hadeeths:
1⃣. The hadeeth of 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr radhiyallahu anhu, that the Prophet ﷺ said:
((وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوْسَطِ))
“The time of 'Isha' prayer is until midnight.”
[Reported by Muslim]
2⃣. The hadeeth of Abu Qatadah radhiyallahu anhu, that the Prophet ﷺ said:
((أَمَا إِنَّهُ…
1. Ifraad
2. Qiraan
3. Tamattu'
The last one (Hajj At-Tamattu') is the best of all the three forms and the form implemented by most people when performing Hajj. During Hajj At-Tamattu', the pilgrim will perform 'Umrah and Hajj separately.
The following 2 lessons will give you a step by step guide on performing this type of Hajj

Sheikh Uthaymeen rahimahullah said:
“The need for Polygyny is greater in this time than it was in the past due to the large number of women, the prevalence of temptations (fitan), and women's need to guard their private parts. Many scholars have also argued that polygyny is better than monogamy.”
[Sharh Hilyati Taalibil 'ilm P. 315]

Sheikh Abdul-Razzaq Al-Badr, waffaqahullah, said:
“It's worthy of a young man seeking work and marriage to repeat this great supplication:
{ رَبِّ إِنِّی لِمَاۤ أَنزَلۡتَ إِلَیَّ مِنۡ خَیۡرࣲ فَقِیرࣱ }
“My Lord! I am truly in ˹desperate˺ need of whatever provision You may have in store for me.”
