If a man comes out of his house carrying a burden of sins like the mountains of Tihamah, then when he hears some knowledge he fears Allah and repents, he will go back home with no sins on him. So do not forsake the gatherings of the scholars.

Clarification

Asalaamualaykum wa rahmatullaah wa barakaatuh,

We would like to make clear that this blog does not support ISIS/the beliefs of the deviant Islamic sect the Khawaarij [See leaflet – A Warning Against ISIS & the Correct Islamic Position Concerning Terror Groups]. 

We felt it imperative to make this information known as unfortunately there are a number of blogs on Tumblr that promote deviated ideologies and the actions of those who commit heinous crimes in the name of Islam. For this reason it is important for us to make our stance absolutely clear.

May Allaah guide us all toward what is correct and enable us to good in His way. Ameen.

Narrated 'Abdullaah ibn 'Umar (radiAllahu 'anhu): 'Umar ibn Al Khattab (radiAllahu 'anhu) stood up on the pulpit and said, "Now then, prohibition of alcoholic drinks have been revealed, and these drinks are prepared from five things, i.e. grapes, dates, honey, wheat or barley. And an alcoholic drink is that, that disturbs the mind."

If one of you knew what is for him (in reward) in saying to his brother ‘Jazak Allahu khairan,’ (may Allah reward you with good) you would increase in saying it to one another.

Contribution of Born & Raised Muslims

'Umar bin al-Khattaab said: 

"This religion will be destroyed when people who never experienced Jaahiliyyah will appear (i.e. those born into Islam will take Islaam for granted).”

[Tabaqaat 129/6]

[sayingsofthesalaf]

There is no goodness in people who don’t give advice, and there is no goodness in people who don’t like to be advised.

Umar ibn al-Khattaab (radiallahu’anhu) [Risaalat Al-Mustarshideen, 71]

[umaribnalkhattab]

Anas (radiAllaahu ‘anhu) said: "I heard ‘Umar say as he was alone behind a wall: 'By Allah! You shall certainly fear Allah, O son of al-Khattab, or He will punish you!’"

Umar ibn Al Khattab [Ahkaam Ahl al-Dhimmah, 1/723-724]

[umaribnalkhattab]

'Umar ibn Al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه)

He was the second of the great Khulafa of the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), Abu Hafs, ‘Umar bin al-Khattab bin Nufail (radhiAllahu ‘anhu). He died in the year 23 A.H. after leading the Fajr prayer, he was stabbed whilst leading the prayer. His Khilaafah lasted for 10 years after the Khilaafah of Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq (radhiAllahu ‘anhu‏), the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) was always seen with Abu Bakr & Umar (radhiAllahu ‘anhum).

The Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

"Verily Allaah has placed the truth upon the tongue & heart of Umar."

[Narrated by Ibn Umar & Abu Dharr, collected by Ahmad, Tirmidhee, Abu Dawood & authenticated by al-Albaanee in ‘Saheeh al-Jaami’ ]

Talha bin Ubaidullaah (radhiAllahu ‘anhu) said:

"That Umar was not the first to embrace Islaam nor the first to make Hijraa but was the foremost in Zuhud & desiring for the hereafter out of us."

The Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) mentions as is narrated in Saheeh al-Bukharee by Jabir bin Abdullaah (radhiAllahu ‘anhu):

"I saw myself entering Paradise, and behold! I saw ar-Rumaisa the wife of Abu Talha. And I heard footsteps, so I asked who is that? It was said: It is Bilal. Then I saw a palace with a lady sitting in its courtyard. So I said whose is this? They said it is Umar’s. I wanted to enter it and see it then I remembered your Ghira (possessive jealousy)."

Then ‘Umar said: “Let my parents be sacrificed for you O Allaah’s Messenger how dare I think of my Ghira being offended by you?”

The Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

"If there were to be a Prophet after me it would have been Umar al-Khattab."

[Narrated by Uqbah bin Aamir, & collected by Ahmad, Tirmidhee & Hakim, & made Hasan by al-Albaanee in Saheehah (327)]
