BENEFIT 34: wide scholarly acceptance of a weak historic report may be a reason to accept it as a factual event
Background:
Al-Ja'd ibn Dirham; the first to reject the Divine Attributes and claim that the Qurʿān was created; mentor of Jahm ibn Ṣafwān; the founding father of the Jahmiyyah.
As a result of his heretical beliefs, Al-Ja'd was executed by the Ummayad governor Khālid ibn ʿAbdullāh al-Qasri raḥimahullāh…
Please remember our dear brother Abū Bakr ibn 'Umar in your du'ās. He passed away yesterday leaving behind 7 children; may Allāh preserve them and their mother and grant the whole family patience.
BENEFIT 33: Advice for those who suffer from evil eye related wiswās (compulsive disorder) - by Sheikh Ṣāliḥ Fawzān
Host:
This questioner says, I request from the esteemed father, Sheikh Ṣāliḥ, to counsel my sister because she has some wiswās; she has three children whom she fears for, such that she does not take them out on trips nor to visit her family, fearing that they may be afflicted by evil eye.
Sheikh…
Sheikh Aḥmad 'Uthmān speaking about his visit to Miṣr. I highly advise listening to this audio. He gives you a glimpse of why da'wah Salafiyyah is so strong in Yemen. He is one of the most down to ear
BENEFIT 32: DĀRUL ḤADĪTH IN HĀMĪ
Seeing as many of the benefits posted in this series are taken from Sheikh Abū Bilāl ḥafidhahullāh, it's only fair that I acquaint you with this man. So for those of you who may be unaware, Sheikh Abū Bilāl ḥafidhahullāh is someone who has spent many years studying in Dammāj; first with Sheikh Muqbil raḥimahullāh, then with his successor, Sheikh Yaḥyā ḥafidhahullāh. But eight years…
With the aim of enhancing our Arabic reading, writing and conversational skills, by Allāh's Permission, we will be going through the Madina book 1 sidebooks, beginning with:
EXPRESSION LEVEL 1
(التعبير المستوى الأول)
The first class will be posted tomorrow in-shā-Allāh.
قَلِّلِ الْمِقْدَارَ وَأَكْثِرْ مِنَ التَّكْرَارِ
Reduce the amount and increase in repetition
وَحَافِظْ عَلَى الاِسْتِمْرَارِ
Maintain consistency
وَدَنْدِنْ بِهِ دَاخِلَ وَخَارِجَ الدَّارِ
Recite it (to yourself) in and outside the house
وَأَكْثِرْ مِنَ الاِسْتِغْفَارِ
And increase in istighfār
NOTE: Just because the hizbees do it, doesn't automatically make it ḥarām❗️
Sheikh Muqbil raḥimahullāh said:
((لا نحرم التعاون على بناء المساجد وحفر الآبار وكفالة الأيتام ، بل نحرم الحزبية المغلفة تحت جمعية ، أو تحت أي شيء ، والحزبية أنا عدوها وضدها ، وسأبقى أحذر منها ما بقيت. وهناك جمعيات في أرض الحرمين ونجد لمساعدة المحتاجين وبناء المساجد وتزويج من يحتاج إلى زواج فهذا أمر طيب : {وتعاونوا على البر والتقوى ولا تعاونوا على الأثم والعدوان}))
“We do not forbid cooperation in building…
Question: is it permissible to conduct a group wedding?
Sh. Zaayed Al-Waṣābī ḥafidhahullāh:
“The ruling of group weddings (is that) there's nothing wrong with it. For example, they come together and combine 5/6 weddings into 1, or maybe a person has 3/4 children and marries them off all at once, there's nothing wrong with that. If there's some impermissible factors involved, that's another issue, but in terms of them coming together and combining between the weddings,…
BENEFIT 31: How did Sheikh Abū Bilāl master Naḥu (Arabic grammar)?
The Sheikh ḥafidhahullāh was asked this very question during last night's Q&A session between Maghrib and 'Ishā.
The Sheikh explained that the secret behind his success -after the Tawfeeq of Allāh- is the fact that he used to prepare for his classes beforehand. He would go to the library and read up on the topic that was going to be taught that…
BENEFIT 30: Muhammad Al-Imaam (author of Al-Ibaanah) is brothers with Hoothees❗️
This man says: 'the Hoothees are our Muslim brothers'
How are they our brothers when they have the same beliefs as the Rafidha; as you yourself affirmed in your book رافضة اليمن?! See link:
https://t.me/madrasatuna/1134
How are they our brothers when you yourself had -in some of your previous works, which you now want to burn-…
BENEFIT 29: PROFESSIONS OF THE SEVEN FAMOUS RECITERS
Imām Adh-Dhahabi raḥimahullāh transmitted the following narration from Khalaf [one of the ten well-known reciters]:
“Khalaf Al-Bazzār said:
1. كان ابن كثير عطَّارًا =
Ibn Kathīr was a perfumer
2. وكان نافع مُحْتَسِبًا =
Nāfi' was an accountant
3. وكان ابن عامر قَاضِيًا =
Ibn 'Āmir was a judge
4. وكان عاصم تَانِيًا =
'Āsim was a farmer
5. وكان أبو عمرو…
BENEFIT 28: IF YOU COMMAND GOOD AND FORBID EVIL, DON'T EXPECT PEOPLE TO THROW ROSES AT YOU❗️
Sheikh Abū Bilāl ḥafidhahullāh reminded the students in today's Maghrib class that:
Sheikh Muqbil raḥimahullāh used to say:
“Whoever wants to give da'wah expecting to face no harm, should go and stay with his mother and cover himself under a blanket.”
i.e. This type of person is not fit for da'wah.
Reflect over…
Every Jumu'ah, after Maghrib, the mic is setup in one of the corners of Masjid Anwar (Dārul Ḥadīth in Ḥāmī) for the students -especially the youngsters- to practice their public speaking; Some come up
May Allāh bless Ahlus-sunnah and preserve them!
By Allāh! This poses a greater threat to the enemies of Islām than anything else - as Sheikh Muqbil raḥimahullāh used to say. For this reason you find them plotting day and night to shut down these centres of knowledge.
They tried to shutdown Dammāj by expelling the students, but this only resulted in more centres of knowledge being established across the…
BENEFIT 27: Giving glad tidings -especially in times of distress- is a prophetic Sunnah (1)
During one of the Lāmiyyah classes, Sheikh Wahb Adh-Dhayfani ḥafidhahullāh reminded us of the following ḥadīth:
The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said:
((ما يجد الشهيد من مس القتل إلا كما يجد أحدكم من مس القرصة)).
“The pain experienced by a martyr at the time of death is only like one of you being pinched/prickled (by an ant).”…
One of the benefits of being in Dārul Ḥadīth in Ḥāmī is that you have the opportunity to sit with a number of scholars; such as:
1. Sheikh Abū Bilal Al-Ḥaḍhrami
2. Sheikh Manṣūr Al-Adībī
3. Sheikh Wahb Adh-Dhayfani
4. Sheikh Nawwās Al-Hindī
5. Sheikh Mūḥammad An-Nihmī
6. Sheikh Muṣṭafa An-Nu'mī
- also, Sheikh Ḥasan Bā Shu'aib is only a 15 minute drive away in an area called Dees Ash-Sharqiyyah.
Al-ḥamdu-lillāh, this evening I had the opportunity to dine with Sheikh Manṣūr Al-Adībī ḥafidhahullāh, where I requested to know more about his…
This is a very beneficial transcript from a lesson by Abū Ṭalhah Dāwūd Burbank raḥimahullāh where he translated the meanings of Allāh’s 99 Beautiful Names (list compiled by Sh. 'Uthaymīn رحمه الله)
