They falsely claimed that Sheikh Muqbil raḥimahullāh wrote a book titled:
الصواعق والبوارق في تحريم الأكل بالملاعق
"The Thunderbolts and Lightning Strikes on the Prohibition of Eating with Spoons."
In reality, this title exists only in name. If you searched for it online, you will find the name. Use a spoon or your hand; as you prefer.

BENEFIT 213: Many people think that Salafi scholars and Du'aat call on people to abandon all worldly pleasures. Is this true?
Sheikh Abdulḥamīd Az-Zu'kari ḥafidhahullāh responded:
This statement is incorrect. Allah says in the Qur'an:
﴿قُلْ مَنْ حَرَّمَ زِينَةَ اللهِ الَّتِي أَخْرَجَ لِعِبَادِهِ وَالطَّيِّبَاتِ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ قُلْ هِيَ لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا خَالِصَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ﴾
“Say, ‘Who has forbidden the adornment of Allah which He has produced for His servants and the good [lawful] things of…
What is the ruling on women entering public baths/saunas?
Sheikh Abdulḥamīd Az-Zu'kari ḥafidhahullāh stated:
If there is no Khalwah with non-mahram men or exposure to them, and a mahram is present and there is no fear of fitnah, then it is permissible - as long as there is no Tasweer or similar activities.
However, it is preferable to avoid it altogether, as there are narrations prohibiting women from entering…
A practical example of judging people by what is apparent!
Question: A group of Africans drowned in the sea and died. They were then recovered and buried in Muslim cemeteries. It is not known whether they were Muslims or not. What is the ruling on this action?
Sheikh Yahya ḥafidhahullāh responded:
The general rule is that those who come from that region, unless it is evident that they are Christians or non-Muslims, should be prayed over and buried in Muslim cemeteries if…
"If your cooperation with your father involves repaying the money he borrowed—the principal amount from the bank—there is no issue with that; because it is originally a debt. However, do not assist him with the interest. For example, if he borrowed one hundred thousand euros or dollars, and they are charging an additional amount, such as two thousand dollars, you should help him pay back only the principal amount he…
Sheikh 'Adnān Al-Maṣqari ḥafidhahullāh responded:
لا بأس أن تعين والدك على سداد دينه، ولكن لا بد أن يتوب إلى الله تعالى من الكبيرة التي وقع فيها. والله الموفق.
It is okay for you to assist your father in repaying his debt, but he must repent to Allāh Almighty from this major sin that he has committed. And Allah is The Grantor of success.
Many parents are, and some may even compromise on Halal for financial freedom!

BENEFIT 206: Leaving off allowable practices in order to remain distinct from the evildoers
Abul 'Abbas Al-Qurṭubi rahimahullah commented on the ḥadīth of Al-Bara' ibn 'Azib, in which he said, "I saw the Prophet ﷺ wearing a red garment," he commented saying:
وفيه دليل على جواز لباس الأحمر، وقد أخطا من كره لباسه مطلقًا، غير أنه قد يختص بلباسه في بعض الأوقات أهل الفسق والدعارة والمجون، فحينئذ يُكره لباسه؛ لأنَّه إذ ذاك تَشبُّه بهم، وقد قال صلى الله عليه وسلم: ((من تشبَّه بقومٍ فهو منهم))، لكن ليس هذا…
It is disliked for men to remain bareheaded outdoors
Sheikh Rashād Adh-Dhali'ee hafidahullah said:
"...Is it appropriate for one to remain bareheaded? The Salaf expressed disapproval of this practice; they considered it as disliked for a person to be bareheaded, and it was not known to be customary among them."
@madrasatuna
Question: Is wearing an 'imāmah (turban) and growing the hair long a Sunnah or a customary practice?
Sheikh Rashād Adh-Dhal'ee ḥafidhahullāh responds:
This is something the Prophet ﷺ did following the customs of his people, as he practiced these things before Prophethood, dressing as his people did.
The actions of the Prophet ﷺ, as previously mentioned, can be categorised in several ways:
1⃣. Some actions stem from human nature, whoever it may be, such as eating, drinking, and sleeping; these are natural human…

The situation you mentioned, inshaAllah, does not prevent you from seeking knowledge, nor does it prevent you from embracing Islam. There are many who are guided by Allah to Islam while living in non-Muslim societies or families, and they continue to embrace and declare their faith. One should consider the nature of the harm they might face. If it is merely verbal abuse or anger,…
