The renowned scholar of Islām, ash-Shaykh al-‘Allāmah Sālih bin Muhammad al-Luhaydan with King Salman bin ‘Abd al-‘Azīz āl-Sa’ud.

Shaykh Sālih passed away a few days ago. May Allāh have mercy on him and grant him Jannah. May Allāh allow us to benefit from the abundance of knowledge he left behind! Āmīn.

[writtenduas]

‎A great scholar of the age, Shaikh Sālih Al-Luhaidān, has died. The Prophet ﷺ said, “The ‘ulamā are the inheritors of the Prophets.” Ibn Mas’ūd said, “Seek knowledge before it is taken away, and it is taken away by the death of the scholars.” Allāh have mercy upon the shaikh.

Knowledge precedes Statements and Actions

"Religious knowledge takes precedence over both saying & acting, for KNOWLEDGE corrects one’s INTENTION which is the PREREQUISITE for the ACCEPTANCE of one’s deeds."*

* Ibn Munīr [Quoted by Ibn Hajr in his comments upon Chapter: Knowledge Precedes Statements & Actions {Bukhārī}]

Source of every evil

"The idea of ta’teel, shirk and opposition and rejection of what the Messengers brought are the basis of all the troubles of the world and the source of every evil."

Lovers of Music and Women

“The lovers of women, beardless boys & the lovers of music and song do not get excited at listening at the talks of knowledge and faith or the recitation of the Qur’an, but when their beloved is mentioned they get stirred & get excited from inside & outside to him.”

✒️ Imām Ibn al-Qayyim | 📚 Supporting the Distressed Against the Tricks of Satan, page 177-178

Happiness lies in Tawhīd

The servant’s happiness and success lie in realisation of the meaning of,

‎إِيَّاكَ نَعۡبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسۡتَعِينُ

‎“It is You alone (O Allāh) that we worship and it is You alone that we ask for help (in Your obedience and in all of our affairs).”

The SERVITUDE contains the desired goal in the perfect way and it is the Lord whose HELP is sought in achieving that goal.

Imām Ibn al-Qayyim | Supporting the Distressed Against the Tricks of Satan, pg. 40-41

[akomeer]

The spirit of what the Islamic religion invites to is the belief in the unseen. It consists of belief in Allāh the Magnificent and all that He has of Beautiful Names, perfect, lofty Attributes, praiseworthy actions, and perfect control; it also consists of belief in immediate and eventual recompense for righteous and evil deeds, respectively — the details of which are unknowable except through the Messengers. This plants within the heart the desire to perform virtuous acts and good deeds, and a competitiveness to attain the station of excellence in worshipping Allah while imparting goodness to the creation. It also implants a hatred of evil and vice, and it is that which has a tremendous effect in rectifying individuals and society. Allah, describing the believers, said [what means]:

“However Allāh has endeared faith to you and beautified it in your hearts while causing you to abhor disbelief, sinfulness, and disobedience. Such persons are the rightly guided ones. It is a favor from Allāh and a blessing, and Allāh is All-Knowing, All-Wise.” [Qurʾān 49:7]

Why study ʿAqīdah?

Shaykh Ṣāliḥ al-Fawzān:

The Prophet ﷺ stayed in Makkah for 13 years calling the people to Tawḥīd, and the rectification of ʿaqīdah because it is the foundation upon which the Deen is built.

Causes of Weakness in the Muslim Ummah― and the Jihād of Evidence and Speech in Defense of Islam

Causes of Weakness in the Muslim Ummah― and the Jihād of Evidence and Speech in Defense of Islam

The more Muslims started to oppose the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah over years and generations, the more they divided, and their power began to ebb away, which in turn emboldened their enemies. So, the Ummah faced humiliation at their hands which only increased with the increase in misguidance, innovated beliefs, disobedience and sins of the Muslims. And no amount of street protests,…

Knowledge of the Unseen that the Qur'an informs about

“From the tremendous knowledge of the unseen that the Qurān continuously informs about is that there is no way towards human rectitude and felicity, or for success in this world and the hereafter, except by following this religion and holding fast to its direction and guidance. That is a matter that none can genuinely doubt. For indeed this nation, during the era of the rightly guided caliphs and righteous monarchs —when they were implementing its knowledge, its direction, and its nurturing education for the commoners and the elites — then their worldly life was set aright, as was their religiosity. They became the highest exemplars of power, might, justice, and every other perfection attainable by man.

Later, when they neglected its scholastic and practical guidance, they disintegrated and decayed. They will not cease being immersed in decline, weakness, and humiliation until they return back to their religion.”

Conveying sound advice

Ibn Hibbān رحمه الله stated:

“The best brothers (you can have) are the most serious of them in conveying (to you) sound advice.”

[Rawdah Al-‘Uqalā Pg.195]

[akomeer]

"Isn’t it short-sided, whimsical, and fanatical to look at the state of the Muslims’ affairs in this era of time when their knowledge and achievements have regressed — an era in which they had lost the establishing values of their religion — without looking at Islam’s flourishing and religious state in its foremost days when they were establishing this religion. They strove to take all means which the religion encourages. Thus, their morals and feats advanced to a degree that remains unparalleled by anyone since the past and will continue to be so into the distant future. The entire world from east to west followed them and the most stalwart nations submitted to them. That was because of their true religion and due to the justice, wisdom, mercy and beautiful qualities they possessed." #islam #sunnah #muslim #islamicposts #islamicquotes #religion #truth #soundreason https://www.instagram.com/akomeer/p/Bv_7PCapalt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yrvoo29cl82l
