WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A TAKFIRI?
A Takfiri is a person who pronounces other people as infidels; therefore, if you make takfir on a fake
Muslim, you are a takfiri.
There is nothing wrong with being a Takfiri
What is wrong is being a khawarij
A khawarij is a person who makes takfir on Muslims wrongfully
Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab put together 10 things that nullify your Islam. One of them is to
refuse to make takfir on a kaafir.
The third nullifier of Islam: He commits Kufr whoever does not apply the Kufr principle upon
polytheists, or whoever doubts that polytheists are infidels, or whoever corrects the polytheists'
path.
One of the nullifiers of Islam is when a Muslim refuses to call a kaafir a kaafir.
This principle is called chain takfir
Therefore refusing to call a kaafir a kaafir, turns you into a kaafir as well because when you refuse to
takfir the kaafir you are indirectly supporting his false aqeeda and putting a stamp of approval on it.
There is a lie floating around that forces people into believing that only a scholar who is firmly grounded in
knowledge is allowed to make takfir.
This is a lie marketed by the wicked scholars because they are afraid that the Ummah will make takfir on
their kaafir paymasters
The Ummah has no choice but to differentiate the Muslims from the kuffaar because Allah said:
Shall We then treat the (submitting) Muslims like the Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists and
disbelievers, etc.)? What is the matter with you? How judge you? (Al-Qalam 68:35-36)
In order to do so, he must be able to know in his heart, that the kaafir has a false aqeeda that does not
agree with Islam.
If a Muslim sees a man wearing a cross around his neck he can make takfir on him because to wear a
cross is a Christian concept. Therefore, you don’t have to be an Islamic scholar to make takfir on those
who wear the cross.
Likewise, if a Muslim hears a man saying the Quran got it wrong because Jesus was crucified, he is
allowed to make takfir on this person. He doesn't have to be a scholar to know that a person who
contradicts the Quran is a kaafir.
THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKFIR
The scholars of Islam have collected many reasons establishing the importance of takfir
REASON # 1 - YOU CANNOT MARRY YOUR MUSLIM DAUGHTERS TO INFIDELS
O you who believe! When believing women come to you as emigrants, examine them, Allah knows
best as to their Faith, then if you ascertain that they are true believers, send them not back to the
disbelievers, they are not lawful (wives) for the disbelievers nor are the disbelievers lawful
(husbands) for them. But give the disbelievers that (amount of money) which they have spent [as
their Mahr] to them. And there will be no sin on you to marry them if you have paid their Mahr to
them. Likewise hold not the disbelieving women as wives, and ask for (the return of) that which
you have spent (as Mahr) and let them (the disbelievers, etc.) ask back for that which they have
spent. That is the Judgement of Allah. He judges between you. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
(Al-Mumtahinah 60:10)
This is a problem that is rife in todays Muslim communities because of the lack of knowledge in tauheed
Allah SWT commanded us to marry the Muslim women to Muslim men and to never send them back to
their disbelieving husbands
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "Two
deens shall not co-exist in the Arabian Peninsula." [Muwatta Malik (2/63) No. 1862 and Bayhaqi in
'Sunan al-Kubra' (9/350) No. 18751]
Muslim women can make hijra on their own [without a mahram] because of the Ayah below:
REASON # 2 - KAAFIRS CANNOT ENTER THE SACRED SANCTUARIES OF MAKKAH AND

MEDINA
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "Two
deens shall not co-exist in the Arabian Peninsula." [Muwatta Malik (2/63) No. 1862 and Bayhaqi in
On the authority of Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: "Umar bin Al-Khattab informed me that he heard the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) say: "I will expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian
Peninsula, and I will not leave anyone in it except a Muslim." [Sahih Muslim (3/1388) No. 1767,
Sunan Tirmidhi (4/156) No. 1607, Sunan Abu Dawud (3/165) No. 3030, Musnad Ahmad (1/32) No.
219
Today the apostate leaders in the Arabian Peninsula are sanctioning and promoting the building of Hindu
and Christian pagan temples. By doing so, they have betrayed the blood of the sahabas who died in
battles to cleanse the Arabian Peninsula of kufr, shirk and zandaqa.
REASON # 3 - KAAFIR ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE STRATEGIC SECRETS OF
THE ISLAMIC STATE
In this regard, Allah said:
O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends,
etc.) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since they will not fail
to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared
from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you
the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand. (Aali Imran 3:118)
REASON # 4 - KAAFIRS CANNOT INHERIT PROPERTY FROM MUSLIMS
REASON #5 - A MUSLIM CANNOT BE KILLED FOR A KAAFIR
Amr ibn Shuayb reported from his father from his grandfather that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said,
‘A Muslim may not be killed for an infidel.’ It is also reported through the same sanad that the
diyat of a disbeliever is half that of a Believer. [Tirmidhi 1418, Nisai 4821, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/671)
No. 2659, Musnad Ahmad (2/178) No. 6662, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/173) No. 4506]
If a kaafir is killed by a Muslim, a Muslim is only supposed to pay blood money
REASON # 6 - WE NEED TO PRACTICE AL WALA WAL BARA
Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibrahim (Abraham) and those with him,
when they said to their people: "Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship besides
Allah, we have rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred for
ever, until you believe in Allah Alone," (Al-Mumtahinah 60:4)
Nabi Ibrahim a.s. practiced Al Wala Wal Bara with his own father
You (O Muhammad SAW) will not find any people who believe in Allah and the Last Day, making
friendship with those who oppose Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW ), even though they
were their fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred (people). For such He has
written Faith in their hearts. (Al-Mujadilah 58:22)
REASON # 7: WE NEED TO TOPPLE THE LEADER IF WE SEE CLEAR KUFR
‫إﻻ اٴن ﺗروا ﻛﻔرا ﺑواﺣﺎ‬On the authority of Ubada bin As-Samit the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said:
“...topple the leader if you see clear kufr...” [al-Bukhari (7056) and Muslim (1709)]
REASON # 8: DURING A JIHAD, WE NEED TO KNOW WHO TO KILL
O you who believe! When you go (to fight) in the Cause of Allah, verify (the truth), and say not to
anyone who greets you (by embracing Islam) : "You are not a believer"; seeking the perishable
goods of the worldly life. There are much more profits and booties with Allah. Even as he is now,
so were you yourselves before till Allah conferred on you His Favours (i.e. guided you to Islam),
therefore, be cautious in discrimination. Allah is Ever WellAware of what you do. (An-Nisa 4:94)
It is the ultimate disaster to kill your Muslim brother
REASON # 9 - WE CANNOT PRAY OVER DEAD KUFFAR
And never (O Muhammad SAW) pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor
stand at his grave. Certainly they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and died while they
were Fasiqun (rebellious, - disobedient to Allah and His Messenger SAW). (At-Tawbah 9:84)
Ali's father died and the Prophet (saw) told him to bury his father who was a kaafir.
The scholars of Islam say the only time you can go to a janaza of a kaafir is if they are your parent and
were not against Islam.
REASON #10 - WE CANNOT BURY KUFFAR IN OUR GRAVEYARDS
The kuffar have to be buried with the Christians or other kuffar.
Muslim cannot be buried in the graveyard of the kuffar
If you bury a Muslim in a kaafir graveyard, the sin will be on the entire Muslim community
ALLAH IS A TAKFIRI
Examples of Allah making takfir:
EXAMPLE # 1 - ALLAH MAKING TAKFIR ON THE GRAVE WORSHIPPERS OR TE PEOPLE WHO

PRAY TO MEDIUMS
Surely, the religion (i.e. the worship and the obedience) is for Allah only. And those who take
Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say) : "We worship them only that they may bring us
near to Allah." Verily, Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly,
Allah guides not him who is a liar, and a disbeliever. (Az-Zumar 39:3)
In the above Ayah, Allah SWT called the people who pray to mediums, liars and kaafirs.
This means all grave worshippers are liars and kaafirs
In the Ayah below, Allah said those in the grave can’t grant us our request:
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case) they were to hear, they
could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will disown your
worshipping them. And none can inform you (O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who is the All Knower
(of each and everything)[]. (Fatir 35:14)
Allah SWT has declared that praying to the mediums is equal to worshipping the mediums
EXAMPLE # 2 - ALLAH SWT MAKING TAKFIR ON THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK
Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam
(Mary)." But the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and
your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden
Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers)
there are no helpers. Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a
Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -
Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the
disbelievers among them. (Al-Ma'idah 5:72-73)
Not only did Allah make takfir on the People of the Book, but He declared them as the worst of created
creatures.
Indeed, they who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture and the polytheists will be in the
fire of Hell, abiding eternally therein. Those are the worst of creatures. (Al-Baiyinah 98:6) Sahih
International
The Prophet Muhammad (saw) himself made takfir on the people of the book who die after hearing about
him without entering the fold of Islam
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (RA) that the Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said: “By the One in
Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, no one among this nation, Jew or Christian, hears of me
then dies not believing in that with which I was sent, but he will be one of the people of the Fire.”
Narrated by Muslim, 153
Jundub (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “The hadd (prescribed punishment)
for the practitioner of magic is a blow with the sword (i.e., execution)" [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/60) No.
1460, Sunan al-Daraqutni (4/120) No. 3204, Mustadrak al-Haakim (4/401) No. 8073, al-Sunan al-
Kabir al-Bayhaqi (8/234) No. 16500, al-Mu'jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (2/161) No. 1665]
EXAMPLE # 3 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO DABBLE IN BLACK MAGIC
They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of Sulaiman
(Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic
and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of
these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, "We are only for trial, so
disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)." And from these (angels) people learn that by
which they cause separation between man and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone
except by Allah's Leave. And they learn that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed
they knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed
was that for which they sold their ownselves, if they but knew. (Al-Baqarah 2:102)
The Scholars use the above Ayah to make takfir on the people who practice black magic
Black magic is practiced all over the Muslim world today because the wicked scholars do not teach
tauheed.
The punishment prescribed for the magician is one strike of the sword and he is buried in the graveyard
of the kuffaar
EXAMPLE # 4 - ALLAH MADE TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO SLAUGHTER ANIMALS IN THE NAME OF
FALSE DEITIES
Imam Nawawi said that slaughtering animals in the name of false deities is a major shirk due to the Ayah
below:
Eat not (O believers) of that (meat) on which Allah's Name has not been pronounced (at the time of
the slaughtering of the animal), for sure it is Fisq (a sin and disobedience of Allah). And certainly,
the Shayatin (devils) do inspire their friends (from mankind) to dispute with you, and if you obey
them [by making AlMaytatah (a dead animal) legal by eating it], then you would indeed be
Mushrikun (polytheists) [because they (devils and their friends) made lawful to you to eat that
which Allah has made unlawful to eat and you obeyed them by considering it lawful to eat, and by
doing so you worshipped them, and to worship others besides Allah is polytheism]. (Al-An'am
6:121)
There is nothing wrong in making takfir, what is wrong is being a khawaarij, because khawaarij make
takfir on people who don't deserve it
EXAMPLE # 5 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO DISLODGE THE SHARIA
And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the
disbelievers. (Al-Ma'idah 5:44) [Sahih International]
Ibn Taymiyyah making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:
Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said: “And it is known from the religion (of Islam) by necessity and by the
consensus of all Muslims that whoever legalizes to follow other than the religion of Islam or a
Shariah other than the Shariah of Muhammad (SAW), he is a Kaafir.
And his kufr is similar to that of the one who believes in some part of the book (Quran) and reject
some of it.” [Majmua al-Fataawa (28/524)]
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (d. 728H): “Whenever a person makes halal what is haraam by
consensus or makes haraam what is halal by consensus or replaces the Sharee’ah that is agreed
upon by consensus, then he is a Kaffir by the agreement of the scholars of Fiqh.” – “Al-Fataawa”,
Vol. 3/267
Ibn Katheer making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:
Ibn Katheer (rh) said: “Thus, it has become in his sons a followed law to which they have been
giving precedence over ruling by the book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (SAW).
Whoever does this is a Kaafir who must be fought until he returns to the rule of Allah and His
Messenger. So no one other than He should rule neither minorly or majorly." [Tafseer Ibn Katheer
(3/131)]
‘Allama al-Shinqiti making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:
While 'Allama al-Shinqiti-May Allah be merciful with him-has said: To commit shirk with Allah in
judging is of the same meaning as to commit shirk in His worship, there is no difference between
the two in any manner. There is no difference in any sense between he who follows a system
(nizam) other than Allah's system or law other than Allah's law (sharia) and he who worships an
idol or prostrates to a false god. They are the same and both are polytheists [associating others]
with Allah. [Adwa' al-Bayan, (7/162)]
Uthaymeen making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:
Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen said: "The first type is when the Hukm of Allah is
removed and replaced with another Taghuutee Hukm, so that the Hukm of the Shari'ah is
eliminated between the people and he puts in its place another Hukm from the fabrication of the
humans and they remove the laws of the Shari'ah concerning the Mu'amalah (i. e. the general
actions between people) and they put in its place fabricated laws and this, without doubt, is
Istib'daal (i. e. replacement) of the Shari'ah of Allah subhaanahuu wa-ta'ala, with other than it. And
this is Kufr which removes one from the Milla because this person put himself at the level of the
Creator because he shara'a (legislated) for the slaves of Allah that which Allah ta'ala did not give
permission for and that is Shirk in His, ta'ala's saying: "Or have they partners with Allâh (false
gods), who have instituted for them a religion, which Allâh has not allowed?" (Ash-Shu'ara, 21) –
"Fiqh Al-'Ebaadaat", #60
Shaikh Bin Baaz making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:
Shaikh 'Abdul-'Azeez Ibn 'Abdullah Ibn Baaz said: "There is no Eeman for the one who believes
the laws of the people and their opinions are superior to the Hukm of Allah and His Messenger or
that they are equal to it or that they resemble it or who leaves it or replaces it with fabricated laws
and institutions invented by people, even if he believes that the laws of Allah are more
encompassing and more just." [Wujoob Tah'keem Shari'ah Allah' (pg. 16-17)]
The wicked scholars who claim they follow Shaikh Bin Baaz are similar to the Christians who claim they
follow Jesus, yet they worship the trinity, eat pork and walk around with an uncircumcised penis. A man
who is not circumcised is no better than a dog. They give women cancer of the cervix and they are prone
to catching the AIDs virus. Such men are not marriage material and it is haram for a Muslim woman to
marry them.
EXMAPLE # 6 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO MOCK ISLAM
If you ask them (about this), they declare: "We were only talking idly and joking." Say: "Was it at
Allah, and His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His
Messenger (SAW) that you were mocking?" Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after you had
believed. If We pardon some of you, We will punish others amongst you because they were
Mujrimun (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.). (At-Tawbah 9:65-66)
Nobody is allowed to make fun of an aspect of Islam
EXAMPLE #7 - ALLAH MAKING TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO SIT AT A GATHERING WHERE THE
DEEN IS RIDICULED
And it has already been revealed to you in the Book (this Qur'an) that when you hear the Verses of
Allah being denied and mocked at, then sit not with them, until they engage in a talk other than
that; (but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like them. Surely, Allah will
collect the hypocrites and disbelievers all together in Hell, (An-Nisa 4:140)
EXAMPLE # 8 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO TAKE SIDES WITH THE KUFFAAR
AGAINST THE BELIEVERS
O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliya' (friends, protectors, helpers,
etc.), they are but Auliya' to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then
surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimun (polytheists
and wrongdoers and unjust). (Al-Ma'idah 5:51)
Ibn Hazm Stated in Al-Muhalla (11/138): "What is correct is that His statement, the Most High, "And
if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of them." (The Quran 5:51), should
be understood on the basis of its apparent meaning. The person being referred to is a disbeliever
from the generality of disbelievers, and no two Muslims disagree regarding this.”
Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab, may Allah have mercy on him, gathered ten actions that
negate one's Islam (Nawaqid ul-'Ashr), the eighth one of which states: "Assisting the disbelievers
(against the believers) (Mudhaharatul Mushrikeen) and supporting them against the believers (is
from the actions that negates of one's faith). The Proof being the statement of Allah, "And if any
amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those
people who are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers and unjust). (The Quran 5:51).”
One of the nullifiers of Islam is to help the kuffaar against the Muslims
When you have hypocrisy in your heart your spiritual vision becomes blur and you cannot see things
clearly
EXAMPLE # 9 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN QURAN BUT REJECT
THE HADITH
Verily, those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and wish to make distinction between
Allah and His Messengers (by believing in Allah and disbelieving in His Messengers) saying, "We
believe in some but reject others," and wish to adopt a way in between. They are in truth
disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating torment. (An-Nisa 4:150-
151)
Those who claim to believe in Quran but reject Hadith are liars. They don’t believe in the Quran. If they
were believers in the Quran; consequently, they would believe in Hadith because Allah has commanded
us to follow Hadith in the following Ayahs:
Say (O Muhammad SAW to mankind) : "If you (really) love Allah then follow me (i.e. accept Islamic
Monotheism, follow the Qur'an and the Sunnah), Allah will love you and forgive you of your sins.
And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Aali Imran 3:31)
And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids
you, abstain (from it), and fear Allah. Verily, Allah is Severe in punishment. (Al-Hashr 59:7)
And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad SAW) the reminder and the advice (the
Qur'an), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give
thought. (An-Nahl 16:44)
EXAMPLE # 10 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO HATE THE ANGEL JIBREEL A.S
The Jews are kaaffir because they hate Jibreel A.S
"Whoever is an enemy to Allah, His Angels, His Messengers, Jibrael (Gabriel) and Mikael
(Michael), then verily, Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers." (Al-Baqarah 2:9
Hating Jibreel is equivalent to hating Allah
The Jews hate Jibreel a.s. because he revealed the Quran to Muhammad (saw) but Allah SWT said that
He revealed His Quran to Muhammad (saw)
Allah is the source of the Quran so hating Jibreel is hating Allah
EXAMPLE # 11 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO VETO MUHAMMAD SAWS
They think that their opinion is better than Hadith
O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet (SAW), nor speak aloud
to him in talk as you speak aloud to one another, lest your deeds may be rendered fruitless while
you perceive not. (Al-Hujurat 49:2)
Raising your voice over Muhammad (saw) nullifies all your deeds
Anyone whose deeds are nullified, his destiny is for the Hell-fire forever
EXAMPLE #12 - ALLAH MAKING TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO ASK THE MUSLIMS TO COMPROMISE
WITH THEIR DEEN
Say, "O disbelievers, I do not worship what you worship. Nor are you worshippers of what I
worship. Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. Nor will you be worshippers of what I
worship. For you is your religion, and for me is my religion." (Al-Kafirun 109:1-6) Sahih
International
EXAMPLE # 13 - SCHOLARS OF ISLAM MAKE TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO INSULT MUHAMMAD

SAWS
The Scholars also said that if you don't make takfir on the person who insults Muhammad (saw) then you
become a kaafir as well
The Prophet (saw) said beat the person who insults his companions but kill the person who insults
Muhammad (saw) or any of the Prophets before him
Al-Imam Ishaq Ibn Rahawayh said: (All Muslims are in consensus that whoever curses Allah or
curses His Messenger, or rejects something from what Allah revealed, or killed a prophet, that he
is a kafir; and even if he accept what was revealed by Allah. And Al-Khattabi said, "I don't know of
anyone who disagrees with the obligation of his killing." And Muhammad Ibn Sahnun said that the
scholars are in consensus that the one who curses the Messenger is a Kafir; and whoever doubts
his Kufr is a Kafir.) Taken from (Kitab al-Sarim al-Maslul 'ala satim al-Rasul, by Ibn Taymiyya)
Abu al-Husain Muhammad Ibn Ahmad al-'Asqalani said: «The Mu'tazila of Baghdad and Basra, and
all of ahl al-Qibla, there is no ikhtilaf between them concerning, that the one who doubts regarding
the kafir then he himself is a kafir, because the doubter (sakk) concerning kufr there's no ‘iman for
him, because he don't know kufr from ‘iman. So there's no dispute between the Umma, the
Mu'tazila and other than them; that the doubter concerning the kafir is kafir!“ Taken from (Kitab al-
Tanbih wa al-Radd 'ala ahl al-Ahwa' wa al-Bida’, by Muhammad Ibn Ahmad al-Malati)
EXAMPLE # 14 - SHAIKH BIN BAAZ MAKES TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN ARAB
NATIONALISM
Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked:
What is your opinion on the call for nationalism which believes that belonging to a race or
language takes precedence over belonging to a religion, and these groups claim that they do not
oppose religion, but they give nationalism precedence over it. What is your opinion of this call?
He replied: This is a jaahili call, and it is not permissible to join it or encourage those who promote
it. Rather it must be put an end to, because Islamic sharee’ah opposes it and rejects it. We should
refute their specious arguments and claims with that which makes the truth clear to those who
seek it. Islam is the only thing that preserved Arabness in language, literature and culture.
Rejecting Islam leads to destroying Arabness in language, literature and culture. Hence the
daa’iyahs should strive their utmost to call people to Islam just as the colonialists are striving
their utmost to destroy it.
It is a well known principle of Islam, that no Muslim has any excuse for not knowing, that the call
for Arab nationalism or any other kind of nationalism, is a false call, grave error and blatant evil; it
is a bad jaahili attitude and a plot against Islam and its followers.
That is due to many reasons that we have explained in a separate book entitled Naqd al-
Qawmiyyah al-‘Arabiyyah ‘ala Daw’ al-Islam wa’l-Waaqi’(Criticism of Arab Nationalism in the Light
of Islam and Reality). Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn Baaz (4/173).
The Shaykh (may Allaah have mercy on him) also said: One of the greatest of evils and follies is to
compare Islam to Arab nationalism. Does nationalism that is devoid of Islam have any
characteristics that qualify it to be counted among the ranks of Islam? Can there be any
comparison between the two?
Undoubtedly this is the gravest insult to Islam and a denial of its principles and wise teachings.
How can any sound mind compare between nationalism and Islam when, if Abu Jahl, ‘Utbah ibn
Rabee’ah, Shaybah ibn Rabee’ah and other enemies of Islam were alive, they would be among the
most prominent supporters and greatest proponents of nationalism. Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn Baaz
(1/320, 321)
Narrated Jubair ibn Mut’im: The Messenger of Allah (SAW), said: "He is not one us who calls for
Àsabiyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who fights for Àsabiyah or who dies for Àsabiyah." [Sunan
Abu Dawud (Vol. 2, pg. 753) No. 5121]
O mankind! We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes,
that you may know one another. Verily, the most honourable of you with Allah is that (believer)
who has At-Taqwa [i.e. one of the Muttaqun (pious - see V.2:2). Verily, Allah is All-Knowing, All-
Aware. (Al-Hujurat 49:13)
EXAMPLE #15: SHAIKH IBN TAYMIYYAH MAKING TAKFIR ON THE WICKED SCHOLARS
"A scholar who abandons what he has learnt from the Quran and the Sunnah and follows a ruler
who does not rule in accordance with the teaching of Allah and His Messenger is an apostate and
a disbeliever who deserves punishment in this world and in the hereafter " Fatawa Ibn
Taymiyyah, Volume 35/373
It is compulsory on a Muslim to make takfir because Allah, His Rasool (saw) and the scholars of Islam
have made takfir on the infidels and fake Muslims.
The munafiqoon and the kuffaar are afraid of the Tafiri because the Takfiri pronounce them as infidels
and expose them to the Ummah.
The munafiqoon have an agenda which is to infiltrate the Muslims and do mischief. However, the takfiri
prevents them from implementing their evil plot, because the Tafiri declared them as kuffaar and fake
Muslims who cannot be trusted.
The role of the Takfiri is to pull the wool from the eyes of unsuspecting Muslims who are very weak in
eeman and tauheed. These unsuspecting Muslims are preyed upon by the hypocrites, kuffaar and
heretics. They are quite vulnerable because they don’t know anything about Islam. Some of these
unsuspecting Muslims marry their innocent daughters to kuffaar. Others have lost their entire life savings
because they were conned by hypocrites and fake Muslims.
It is an honor to be a Takfiri because you are saving the Ummah from the evil plots of the hypocrites,
kuffar and heretics.
Allah Himself is a Takfiri. Hence, He has made takfir on the grave worshippers, practitioners of magic,
those who mock Islam, those who insult Allah and His Rasool (saw), those who dislodge the Shariah and
many more infidels who were listed in this dars.
QUESTION & ANSWER
Q: Shaikh, Yusufdeen what Manhaj is he on because he was promoting Homosexuality, he also

has many rooms under different names, how are we to know
This person Yusufdeen is a white man who believes in and condones homosexuality
He gives his own false tafseer of the Quran
He is self-taught and is not qualified to give tafseer

He uses a Qadiyanni to be his admin in his rooms and he hates real Muslims
He preaches that the People of the Book means Muslims, so when Allah said “We should fight the People
of the Book” it means fight the Muslims.
Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which
has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion
of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the
Jizyah[] with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. (At-Tawbah 9:29)
He is on the failed mission of destroying islam from within
You are not allowed to go to his paltalk rooms unless you want to debate him
He is the worst kaafir on paltalk at the moment
Q: Is it allowed to make hijra with a non mahram woman, with intention of marraige there, knowing
that her parents are gonna be upset? Also are your parents kafir if they try to prevent you from
making hijra
If your parents prevent you from hijra they are weak in emaan. they are still muslims
we are not not allowed to make takfir on them
You are allowed to make hijra without a mahram because of the Ayah below
Q: whats the plight of the saudis who allow shia kuffars to do hajj in makkah and madina. also if u
go to the kafir court house to demand your right after your muslim bro uses kuffar law against u?
The apostate saudi government is wrong to allow the shia to enter makkah for hajj because the shia are
kaafirs due to their kufr ideology.
The following statements are examples of their kufr ideology:
SHIA HUJJAH: It is a fundamental principle of faith that our (Shia) Imams have ranks higher than
the ranks of angels & God's prophets. (Khomeini's book, Hukuma Islamiya, p. 52)
SHIA HUJJAH: The Shia believe that at the time of Mahdi’s return Imam Mahdi will resurrect Aisha
(Prophet Mohammad’s wife) and execute the law of Hudud on her, for committing Zina (adultery)
during her marriage. (Al-Anwar Al-Numaniyah, vol. 1, p. 161, Tafsir al-Shafi, vol. 2, p. 108, Haq al-
Yaqeen, vol. 2, p. 256, Hayat al-Qulub, vol. 2, p. 611)
SHIA HUJJAH: The present Quran is in an altered, corrupted and distorted form.. (Fatuhat-e-Shia,
p. 129)
Ibn Hazm — "Shia are not even Muslims", when Christians debating him brought a Shia book as
reference See al-Millal wa al-Nahl 2/213 ‫اﻟﻔﺻل ﻓﻲ اﻟﻣﻠل واﻟﻧﺣل‬
Q: assalamualaikum shaikh.. on a previous lecture "importance of salah" i heard u mention ali ra

making takfeer on a woman who didnt pray,
Allah lays down three conditions for us to accept new reverts as real Muslims in the Ayah below:
But if they repent, perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) and give Zakat, then they are your brethren
in religion. (In this way) We explain the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,
revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah 9:11)
A debate took place between Imam Shafiee and Imam Ahman bin Hanbal and Imam Ahmad brought
proof from Quran to prove that people who do not pray are kaafirs
Allah swt put three conditions on people to be considered Muslim, 1. to make tauba, 2. to pray salah, 3. to
pay zakat
Jabir (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Between a man (Muslim) and shirk and
disbelief lies neglect of salah.” [Sahih Muslim (1/88) No. 82, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/13) No. 2620, Sunan
Abu Dawud (4/219) No. 4678, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/181) No. 1078, Sunan An-Nasa'i (1/232) No. 463,
Musnad Ahmad (3/370) No. 15021]
Q: can u ask sheikh r we allowed to make takfir on bin baz if so why aren't there any other
scholars made takfir on him previously and presently
Shaikh bin Baaz was a great scholar and he worked to spread tauheed
You cannot find kufr in his books
However he made a mistake in allowing the kuffaar to enter muslim lands and use the Muslim land to kill
Muslims.
In the fatwa below Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab has made takfir on any Muslim who takes sides with
the kuffaar against other Muslims
Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab, may Allah have mercy on him, gathered ten actions that
negate one's Islam (Nawaqid ul-'Ashr), the eighth one of which states: "Assisting the disbelievers
(against the believers) (Mudhaharatul Mushrikeen) and supporting them against the believers (is
from the actions that negates of one's faith). The Proof being the statement of Allah, "And if any
amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those
people who are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers and unjust). (The Quran 5:51).”
There is no doubt that the Americans and Russians are crusaders; therefore, it is haram for any scholar
to pass a fatwa to allow their armies to invade Muslim lands.
Shaikh bin Baaz is a man like every other man and a man makes mistakes, so we take the good and
leave the bad. The bad is taking sides with the Crusaders. This took him out of the fold of islam
The scholars did not publicly make takfeer on him because they probably feared reprisal

THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKFEER
APRIL 13 2014 / 13 JUMADA AL AKHIRAH 1435 HIJRI
BY SHAIKH ABDULLAH AL FAISAL
NOTES TAKEN BY @AT15
HADITH HUJJAH @AT3

EDITED & FORMATTED BY @TI-Nspire & Abu Hafiza
So whenever you call someone infidel, it is known as takfeer.
There is a misconception that only a scholar may make takfeer.
There is a person by the name of Salman Rushdie in the UK who wrote a book insulting Allah (SWT) and
His messenger (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
Is it fair to say only a scholar can make takfeer on such person?
Another example, if you see a girl with a red dot on his forehead (Hindu), are you saying you cannot call
them a non-believer?
Another example, if you see a person wearing a cross, are you saying you cannot call them a non-
believer?
Another example, if someone says Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) wrote the Quran, are you
saying you cannot make takfeer on such person?
You do not need a scholar to make takfeer.
People say rubbish when they say only a scholar can make takfeer.
Another example, if a person denies the Day of Judgement, do you need a scholar to make takfeer on
this person?
Certainly not.
Such people make takfeer on themselves with their zandaqa (heresy).
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah Al Imran verse 102:
O you who believe! Fear Allah (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all
that He has forbidden) as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and
remember Him always], and die not except in a state of Islam (as Muslims) with complete
submission to Allah.
(Aali Imran 3:102)
The sahaba use to memorize the nawaqid of Islam (nullifier of Islam) like they memorized surah al-
Fatiha.
During the battle of Yamaama, some sahaba who apostate fought in that battle.
This is why Allah (SWT) says "don't die unless in the state of Islam".
Narrated By Abu Musa al-Ash'ari: The Prophet (SAW) said: “Before you there will be
commotions like pieces of a dark night in which a man will be a believer in the morning and
an infidel in the evening. He who sits during them will be better than he who gets up, and he
who gets up during them is better than he who walks, and he who walks during them is
better than he who runs.” They (the people) said: What do you order us to do? He replied:
“Keep to your houses.”
[Sunan Abu Dawud (4/101) No. 4262, Musnad Ahmad (4/408) No. 19677, Mustadrak al-
Haakim (4/487) No. 8360; al-Haakim said this hadith has Sahih isnaad but they (Two
Shaikhs) did not narrate it]
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah An Nisa Verse 145:
Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find
for them.
(An-Nisa 4:145)
If a man does not fear of being a hypocrite then that person is already a hypocrite.
According to the murjee, it is not important to know who is a Muslim or who is a kafir.
Because on Judgement Day, Allah (SWT) will not ask such question.
This is, however, a big lie.
This lie contradicts surah 2 verse 143
Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islamic Monotheism, true
followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the
best) nation, that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a
witness over you.
(Al-Baqarah 2:143)
So on Judgement Day, you will testify that messengers came to a nation but people rejected his
message.
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said, "Whatever the Muslims see as good is good with Allah, Whatever the
Muslims see as bad, Allah sees as bad."
[Mustadrak al-Haakim (3/83) No. 4465, classed as Sahih by Adh-Dhahabee]
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said, "Indeed Allah looked into the hearts of the servants and found the
heart of Muhammad (SAW) to be the best of the hearts of His servants and so He chose him
for Himself and sent him as a Messenger. Then He looked into the hearts of His servants
after Muhammad and found the hearts of the Companions to be the best of the hearts of the
servants. So He made them ministers of His Messenger fighting for His Deen. So whatever
the Muslims see as good is good with Allah, Whatever the Muslims see as bad, Allah sees as
bad."
[Musnad Ahmad (1/379) No. 3600]
The murjee say we are not here to judge.
But the above-mentioned hadith of Ibn Mas'ud (RA) refutes this ideology.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah An Nisa verse: 35

If you fear a breach between them twain (the man and his wife), appoint (two) arbitrators,
one from his family and the other from her's; if they both wish for peace, Allah will cause
their reconciliation. Indeed Allah is Ever All Knower, Well Acquainted with all things.
(An-Nisa 4:35)
Ibn Abbas (RA) used the above ayah to refute the Khawareej.
They had the same ideology as the murjee.
When the Khawareej say "Allah (SWT) is the only Judge", Ali (RA) replied "a word of truth but they use it
in falsehood" because they take it out of context.
So be careful of people quoting Quranic verses because in most cases they take it out of context.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah An Nisa verse 58
Verily! Allah commands that you should render back the trusts to those, to whom they are
due; and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice. Verily, how excellent is
the teaching, which He (Allah) gives you! Truly, Allah is Ever All Hearer, All Seer.
(An-Nisa 4:58)
Allah (SWT) says in the above ayah that you should judge with justice.
And so judge (you O Muhammad SAW) between them by what Allah has revealed and follow
not their vain desires, but beware of them lest they turn you (O Muhammad SAW) far away
from some of that which Allah has sent down to you. And if they turn away, then know that
Allah's Will is to punish them for some sins of theirs. And truly, most of men are Fasiqun
(rebellious and disobedient to Allah).
(Al-Ma'idah 5:49)
You were commanded to judge with the Book of Allah (SWT).
You were commanded to enjoin the right and forbid the wrong.
How will you enjoin the right if you did not judge it to be good?
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Imran verse 104:

Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islam), enjoining Al-
Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do) and forbidding Al-
Munkar (polytheism and disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden). And it is they who are
the successful.
(Aali Imran 3:104)
And how will you forbid the wrong if you did not judge it for being evil?
To enjoy the right and forbid the wrong is a religious duty.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Imran verse 110:
You [true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW
and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you
enjoin Al-Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al-
Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden), and you believe in Allah.
(Aali Imran 3:110)
Allah (SWT) says you the Muslim is the best nation, why? Because you enjoin the right and forbid wrong,
and you believe in Allah (SWT).
You are the only nation who believes in Allah (SWT) properly.
Some people believe Allah (SWT) beget a son.
Beget means to have intercourse.
THE 10 REASON WHY TAKFEER IS IMPORTANT
1. A Muslim woman cannot marry a kafir.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mumtahinah verse 10.
O you who believe! When believing women come to you as emigrants, examine them, Allah
knows best as to their Faith, then if you ascertain that they are true believers, send them not
back to the disbelievers, they are not lawful (wives) for the disbelievers nor are the
disbelievers lawful (husbands) for them. But give the disbelievers that (amount of money)
which they have spent [as their Mahr] to them. And there will be no sin on you to marry
them if you have paid their Mahr to them. Likewise hold not the disbelieving women as
wives, and ask for (the return of) that which you have spent (as Mahr) and let them (the
disbelievers, etc.) ask back for that which they have spent. That is the Judgement of Allah.
He judges between you. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
Any sheikh who says the opposite or makes it halal, the sheikh is ruling over Allah's rule hence he is a
kafir.
2. A kafir cannot inherit from a Muslim.
It was narrated from Usamah bin Zaid, who attributed it to the Prophet (‫)ﷺ‬: “The Muslim
does not inherit from a disbeliever and the disbeliever does not inherit from a Muslim.”
{Sunan Ibn Majah: Vol. 1, Book 23, Hadith 2729} & Sahih Bukhari: Vol: 8 Book 85 Chapter
26 Hadith 6764}
3. Kafirs cannot enter Makkah nor Medina.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said,
"Two deens shall not co-exist in the Arabian Peninsula." Malik said that Ibn Shihab said,
''Umar ibn al-Khattab searched for information about that until he was absolutely convinced
that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), had said, 'Two deens shall not co-exist in the Arabian
Peninsula,' and he therefore expelled the jews from Khaybar."
[Muwatta Malik (2/63) No. 1862 and Bayhaqi in 'Sunan al-Kubra' (9/350) No. 18751]
Ibn Qudaamah (rh) said: "It is not permissible for any of them (the kuffaar) to live in the
Hijaaz. This is the view of Malik and al-Shafi’i, but Malik said: I think that they should be
expelled from all the Arab lands, because the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Two religions
cannot coexist in the Arabian Peninsula.” Abu Dawood narrated with his isnaad from ‘Umar
that he heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say: “I will certainly expel the Jews and the
Christians from the Arabian Peninsula,, and I will not leave anyone there but Muslims.” Al-
Tirmidhi said: this is a saheeh hasan hadeeth. And it was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: The
Messenger of Allah (SAW) left behind three instructions. He said: Expel the mushrikeen from
the Arabian Peninsula, honour the delegations the way that I do, and he kept quiet about
the third.
{Narrated by Abu Dawood. [Al-Mughni (9/356-357)}

On the authority of Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: "Umar bin Al-Khattab informed me that he heard the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) say: "I will expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian
Peninsula, and I will not leave anyone in it except a Muslim."'
[Sahih Muslim (3/1388) No. 1767, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/156) No. 1607, Sunan Abu Dawud
(3/165) No. 3030, Musnad Ahmad (1/32) No. 219]
4. Kafir should not gain access sensitive information of the Islamic State.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Imran verse 118
O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers,
friends, etc.) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since
they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred
has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed
We have made plain to you the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand.
(Aali Imran 3:118)
5. A Muslim cannot be killed for the sake of a kafir.
If a Muslim kills a kafir, he must pay blood money but he cannot be killed.
On the authority of 'Amr bin Shu'aib from his father, from his grandfather that the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "The Muslim is not killed for a disbeliever."
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/25) No. 1413, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/671) No. 2659, Musnad Ahmad
(2/178) No. 6662, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/173) No. 4506]
Can you cut off the hand of a Muslim for stealing the wealth of a kafir? Yes you may.
6. In order to practice al Walaa wal Baraa.
If you find a product that is sold by a Muslim and a kafir with no price difference or quality, then you
must buy from the Muslim because he pays zakat.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mumtahinah verse: 1
O you who believe! Take not My enemies and your enemies (i.e. disbelievers and polytheists,
etc.) as friends, showing affection towards them, while they have disbelieved in what has
come to you of the truth (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, this Qur'an, and Muhammad SAW), and
have driven out the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) and yourselves (from your homeland)
because you believe in Allah your Lord! If you have come forth to strive in My Cause and to
seek My Good Pleasure, (then take not these disbelievers and polytheists, etc., as your
friends). You show friendship to them in secret, while I am All-Aware of what you conceal
and what you reveal. And whosoever of you (Muslims) does that, then indeed he has gone
(far) astray, (away) from the Straight Path.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mujadilah verse: 22
You (O Muhammad SAW) will not find any people who believe in Allah and the Last Day,
making friendship with those who oppose Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW ), even
though they were their fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred (people). For
such He has written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with Ruh (proofs, light and
true guidance) from Himself. And We will admit them to Gardens (Paradise) under which
rivers flow, to dwell therein (forever). Allah is pleased with them, and they with Him. They
are the Party of Allah. Verily, it is the Party of Allah that will be the successful.
(Al-Mujadilah 58:22)
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mumtahinah verse: 4
Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibrahim (Abraham) and those with
him, when they said to their people: "Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship
besides Allah, we have rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and
hatred for ever, until you believe in Allah Alone,"except the saying of Ibrahim (Abraham) to
his father: "Verily, I will ask for forgiveness (from Allah) for you, but I have no power to do
anything for you before Allah." Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone)
we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return,
Al walaa wal baraa means to love and hate for the sake of Allah (SWT).
Al walaa wal baraa is one of the seven conditions of the shahada.
7. To topple the leader if you see clear kufr.
An example of clear kufr is to dislodge the shariah.

‫أن ﺗروا ﻛﻔرا ﺑواﺣﺎ‬
On the authority of Ubada bin As-Samit the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “…topple the
leader if you see clear kufr...”
[Al-Bukhari (7056) and Muslim (1709)]
Another example if to make haram into halal.
Another example is taking side with the enemy of the ummah.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Ma'idah verse: 51
O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliya' (friends, protectors,
helpers, etc.), they are but Auliya' to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as
Auliya', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the
Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers and unjust).
(Al-Ma'idah 5:51)
Ibn Hazm Stated in Al-Muhalla (11/138): "What is correct is that His statement, the Most
High, "And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of them." (The
Quran 5:51), should be understood on the basis of its apparent meaning. The person being
referred to is a disbeliever from the generality of disbelievers, and no two Muslims disagree
regarding this."
Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab, may Allah have mercy on him, gathered ten actions
that negate one's Islam (Nawaqid ul-'Ashr), the eighth one of which states: "Assisting the
disbelievers (against the believers) (Mudhaharatul Mushrikeen) and supporting them
against the believers (is from the actions that negates of one's faith). The Proof being the
statement of Allah, "And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of
them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-
doers and unjust). (The Quran 5:51)."
Example of people taking side with the kufar to kill Muslims is the Saudi government who gave petroleum
to the kufar in order to kill Iraqee Muslims.
The drone that killed Imam Anwar al Al walaki (RH) was sent from a Muslim country.
Pakistani government also allowed NATO to use their land in order to kill the Muslims of Afghanistan.
And there are many other examples.
Riba banks is also considered clear kufr.
This makes riba halal.
A madkhalis do say that don't topple the leader, it is qadr of Allah for him to be the leader.
They use qadr to justify the kufr and tyranny of the leaders.
A madkhalis believes it is halal to spy for the MI5, the CIA, and the FBI.
If you do not understand tawheed, you will think a madkhalis incredibly pious.
You need to understand tawheed to know who is a real Muslim and who is a kafir.
8. When there's jihad, you need to know who to kill.
When the prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) went to Hudaybiyyah, had he fought against the MAKKAH
he would have killed Muslims who were hiding their faith.
Even in the palace of the Pharaoh, there were Muslims who were hiding their faith.
So takfeer is important so that when there is jihad you know the enemy clearly.
When you kill your Muslim brother in the battlefield, it is called "friendly fire".
9. It is haram to pray janaza over a kafir or a hypocrite.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah At Tawbah verse: 84
And never (O Muhammad SAW) pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies,
nor stand at his grave. Certainly they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and died while
they were Fasiqun (rebellious, - disobedient to Allah and His Messenger SAW).
(At-Tawbah 9:84)
You can go the janaza when the kafir is your father, mother, or son and if he wasn't hostile against
Islam.
The prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) told Ali (RA) to bury Abu Talib.
You can go to show your face.
As for going to the janaza of a hypocrite or a hostile kafir or one that isn't your relative is totally haram.
10. You cannot bury a kafir in the graveyard of the Muslim and vice versa.
The purpose of takfeer is to purify you from 5 evil things: kufr, shirk, hypocrisy, heresy, and apostasy.
Takfeer is a religious matter therefore we are only allowed to make takfeer on the person who Allah and
His messenger (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) have made takfeer on.
Takfeer for personal reason/feeling, that takfeer is out of place.
Sometime a Muslim gets ripped off by another fellow Muslim, this is very hurtful but not a reason to
make takfeer.
The layman is obliged to leave the takfeer to the scholar when the kufr is not clear.
However if the kufr is clear, you don't need to leave it for the scholar.
According to the murjee, no haram can take you out of the fold of Islam.
In order for me to be a kafir, I need to make the haram halal by the tongue.
This is the creed of the madkhalis.
This is a big lie because Allah made takfeer on people who practice black magic.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baqarah verse: 102
They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of
Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved,
teaching men magic and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut
and Marut, but neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said,
"We are only for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)."
(Al-Baqarah 2:102)
All the scholar say that the above ayah is sufficient to make takfeer on people who practice black magic.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al An'am verse: 121
And certainly, the Shayatin (devils) do inspire their friends (from mankind) to dispute with
you, and if you obey them [by making AlMaytatah (a dead animal) legal by eating it], then
you would indeed be Mushrikun (polytheists) [because they (devils and their friends) made
lawful to you to eat that which Allah has made unlawful to eat and you obeyed them by
considering it lawful to eat, and by doing so you worshipped them, and to worship others
besides Allah is polytheism].
(Al-An'am 6:121)
In the above ayah, Allah (SWT) made takfeer on people who eat meat that was slaughter upon other
deity than Allah (SWT) Himself.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah
And marry not women whom your fathers married, except what has already passed; indeed
it was shameful and most hateful, and an evil way.
(An-Nisa 4:22)
A man was killed as a kafir because he did not believe in the above ayah, surah 4 verse 22.
In Islam there is 2 types of kufr: major and minor.
The only action that can eject you out of the fold of the Islam is a major kufr.
The plight of the khawareej is that they paint every kufr with the same brush.
They do not differentiate between minor and major kufr.
So consequently, they make takfeer on Muslims who have girlfriends or drink alcohol.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah At Tawbah verse: 9:65-66
If you ask them (about this), they declare: "We were only talking idly and joking." Say: "Was
it at Allah, and His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His
Messenger (SAW) that you were mocking?" Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after you
had believed. If We pardon some of you, We will punish others amongst you because they
were Mujrimun (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.).
(At-Tawbah 9:65-66)
Another example of Allah (SWT) making takfeer because of major kufr is the above ayahs.
He ridiculed Allah (SWT) or His messengers.
He ridiculed the hijab, the salah, or any aspect of the deen.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Ma'idah verse: 51
O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliya' (friends, protectors,
helpers, etc.), they are but Auliya' to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as
Auliya', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the
Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers and unjust).
(Al-Ma'idah 5:51)
In the above ayah, Allah (SWT) makes takfeer on those who help the kufar over the Muslims.
Narrated By Al-Bara' ibn Azib: I met my uncle who was carrying a standard. I asked him:
'Where are you going?' He said: 'The Apostle of Allah (SAW) has sent me to a man who has
married his father's wife. He has ordered me to cut off his head and take his property.'
[Sunan Abu Dawud (4/157) No. 4457, Sunan al-Nasa'i (6/109) No. 3332, Sunan al-Darime
(2/205) No. 2239, Musnad Ahmad (4/290) No. 18580]
Ibn Kateer (RH) the man in this hadith was killed as a kafir because his wealth was confiscated.
This means you can become a kafir by acting upon a major kufr.
ARE YOU A WAHHABI?
ARE YOU A WAHHABI?
By Shaikh Abdullah Faisal

Notes typed live by AT19

Edited and formatted by Shaikh Faisal and AT19
What do you understand from the word Wahhabi, who uses this term and why?
The Wahhabi movement is classified as a spiritual and political movement. This is so because they believe
in the establishment of the Islamic State to preserve the deen of the Ummah.
The spiritual father for the wahhabi movement was Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab. He was born 1703
and died 1792. He founded a movement based on pure tawheed
in order to purify the Arabian Peninsula from seven evil things:
1. Kufr
2. Shirk
3. Zandaqa [heresy]
4. Superstitions
5. Deviancy
6. Bid'ah [cursed innovations]
7. Apostasy
He will always be remembered for his amazing accomplishment of ridding the Arabian Peninsula of grave
worshippers. His work, nawaaqid al Islam, is a book comprised of the 10 things that eject a person
outside the fold of Islam. This book was written to protect the Ummah from kufr, shirk, zandaqa, and
apostasy. It is incumbent on all Muslims to study the contents of this book in order to safeguard their
deen. Many Muslims have apostates in their families without realising it because they do not understand
tawheed to know who is a Muslim and who is a kaafir.
It is incumbent on all Islamic schools, colleges, institutes and universities to study this book, the 10
Nullifiers of Islam. Below are the 10 nullifiers of Islam stated by Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab:
THE TEN THINGS THAT NULLIFY ISLAM IS AS FOLLOWS:
Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab said: Know that the things that nullify Islam
are TEN
FIRST: polytheism, which is worshipping other gods besides the One true
God, Allah [4:48; 5:72]
SECOND: he commits Kufr by Ijma’ whoever places mediums between

himself and Allah, mediums that he calls upon, ask forgiveness from, or rely
on. [39:3; 35:14]
THIRD: he commits Kufr whoever does not apply the Kufr principle upon
polytheists, or whoever doubts that polytheists are infidels, or whoever
corrects polytheists’ path. [3:19; 3:85]
FOURTH: he is a disbeliever whoever thinks that another guidance is better

than prophet Muhammad’s guidance, or another judgement is better than
prophet Muhammad’s judgement, such as preferring Tawagheet's (tyrants)
judgement over prophet Muhammad's judgement. [5:44]
FIFTH: he commits Kufr whoever hates something that prophet Muhammad -

peace and blessings be upon him- came with, even if he practices it. [47:9]
SIXTH: he commits Kufr whoever mocks some of God’s religion, some of

God’s reward, or some of God's punishment. He commits kufr if he mocks the
Messenger of Allah [saw]. [9:65-66]
SEVENTH: he commits kufr, who dabbles in black magic or pays someone to

do magic on his behalf. [2:102]
EIGHTH: helping polytheists against Muslims. The evidence on that is the

saying of Allah, the Exalted: And if any amongst you takes them (as Auliyâ’),
then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allâh guides not those people who are
the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong doers. (Al Maida 5:51)
NINTH: he is a disbeliever whoever believes that some people are able to

leave the Sharia’ of prophet Muhammad -peace and blessings be upon him-
as Al-Khidr was able to leave the Sharia’ of Moses -peace be upon him-.
[5:50]
TENTH: the unwillingness to learn or practice the religion of God. The

evidence on that is the saying of Allah, the Exalted: And who does more
wrong than he who is reminded of the Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of his Lord, then turns aside therefrom?
Verily, We shall exact retribution from the Mujrimûn (criminals, disbelievers,
polytheists, sinners). (32:22). [The Ten Nullifiers of Islam by Muhammed Ibn
Abdul-Wahab]
THE THREE PRINCIPLES IS ANOTHER BOOK THAT HE WROTE
The three principles is another book written by Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab. These three principles are
called Root Islamic Education [Asli Deen]. The Shaikh took the three principles from the Hadith where the
Prophet Muhammad [saw] said every human will be asked three questions in his or her grave.
Bara (RA) reported from the Prophet (SAW) about this verse: "Allah keeps
the believers firm with the stable word in the worldly life and in the
Hereafter." (14:27) He explained that this has reference to the grave when it
is asked, “Who is your Lord? Who was your Prophet? and What is your
religion?” [Bukhari 1369, Muslim 2871, Abu Dawud 4750, Tirmidhi 3131,
Nisai 2056, Ibn e Majah 4269]
These three principles are also called Ma'loom min ad-deen Bid-Daroora meaning that which is known of
Islam by necessity. You need to know these three things to be a real Muslim. If you are ignorant of three
things, you are not a Muslim.
WHO ARE THE PEOPLE WHO CALL OTHERS WAHHABI?
The following 11 people are guilty of calling orthodox Muslims Wahhabis'. Their aim and objective is to
use the term Wahhabi to insult real Muslims [people on pure tawheed] because they envy the real
Muslims for their deen.
1. Shia
2. Sufi
3. Berailvis
4. Parvezi [Hadith rejector]
5. Mu'tazila [rationalist]
6. Asha'ira
7. Secularist
8. Modernist
9. Democrats
10. Hypocrites
11. Apostates
The people who use the word wahhabi, their intention is to practise smear, sneer and jeer. However, the
people who practice the teachings of Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab are not Wahhabis. They are Ahlus
Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah and Salafi Jihadi. These words are not offensive. They are also referred to as a
Muwahhid [i.e. a person who is on pure tawheed]. It is inappropriate to call a person a Wahhabi because
it is used to insult and name calling is haram in the following Ayah:
O you who have believed, let not a people ridicule [another] people; perhaps
they may be better than them; nor let women ridicule [other] women;
perhaps they may be better than them. And do not insult one another and do
not call each other by [offensive] nicknames. Wretched is the name of
disobedience after [one's] faith. And whoever does not repent - then it is
those who are the wrongdoers. (Al-Ĥujurāt 49:11)
The people who are Mushrikeen use the word Wahhab to insult orthodox Muslims. They want you to
abandon your pure tawheed and follow them in their kufr, shirk and zandaqa. The Sufis, Shias and
Bervailvis are the Mushrikeen of the Ummah.
Sufis are the Christian of the Ummah, the Berailvis are still Hindus and the Shias are still Zorastrians.
These people have entered into the fold of Islam under false pretence. These people cannot survive in a
genuine Islamic State because they are kuffar, outside the fold of Islam. They would be asked to convert
to Islam or leave.
They are the worst of kuffar. They preach that Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab was a British agent. Like
all infidels, they slander their enemies in order to survive. We are not allowed to call their places of
worship a masjid. This is because they worship false deities in their places of worship. You have to call it
a temple because in a masjid Allah alone is worshipped. Hence, Allah says:
And the mosques are for Allâh (Alone), so invoke not anyone along with
Allâh. (Al-Jinn 72:18)
When Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab was born, he and the British didn't share the same era. Muhammad
ibn Abdul Wahhab is from Uyayna, Saudia Arabia. He was born 1703. This was long before the British
stepped into the Middle East. Also, he was from Saudia Arabia, and we all know that Saudia Arabia was
not colonised by the British or any one else.
Allah told us to verify the news coming from an evil person in the following Ayah:
O you who believe! If a rebellious evil person comes to you with a news,
verify it, lest you harm people in ignorance, and afterwards you become
regretful to what you have done. (Al-Hujurat 49:6)
If you repeat this news from the mushrikeen, you will be asked about it on Day of Judgement because it
is a slander. Moreover, the flesh of the scholars is poison. Be careful about slandering a pious scholar.
The Holy Prophet [saw] said:
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "It is enough to call
a man a liar that he narrates everything he hears" [Sahih Muslim (1/10) No.
5, Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah (5/237) No. 25617, al-Zuhd al-Ahmad Ibn
Hanbal (p. 41) No. 249]
Why would the British sponsor a scholar like Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab to bring back authentic
tawheed to the Ummah?!
These misguided Muslims use to be grave worshippers. The colonial masters promote evil practices like
grave worshipping because grave worshippers have no taqwa to oppose them with jihad.
Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab will be remembered as the man who surgically removed shirk from the
Ummah. The malicious slander of the mushrikeen doesn't make sense because it doesn't stand up to
scrutiny.
Mirza Gulam Ahmed, the false Prophet of Qadian, was on the payroll of the British. He preached non-
jihad against the colonialist and he even claimed to be a Prophet after Muhammad [saw].
Ahmed Raza, the founding father of the Berailvi movement, was also paid by the British, and he preached
that Muslims should worship the graves besides Allah [shirk].
History has proven that the preachers who were sponsored by the British were all fake Muslims whose
aim and objectives was to mislead unsuspecting Muslims. Today, millions of Muslims in India, Pakistan
and Bangladesh have become infidels due to the work of Mirza Ghulam Ahmed and Ahmed Raza. Both of
these heretics were sponsored by the British.
THE IMPORTANT PRINCIPLES OF MUHAMMAD IBN ABDUL WAHHAB'S

MOVEMENT
The text has a literal meaning unless proven otherwise. The text means Quran and
Sunnah. Therefore, we have to understand the text from its apparent meaning. Those,
in whose heart is the disease of hypocrisy, claim that the text is metaphorical; therefore
it has a hidden meaning which is known only to their Imams who are firmly grounded in
knowledge. These people are called the batiniyyah [those who claim that the text is
metaphorical and it has a hidden meaning]. The reason why the batiniyyah claim that
the text is metaphorical is because they have an evil motive. Their evil motive is to put
a spin on the text in order to mislead unsuspecting Muslims.
The movement of Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab is on the opposite side of the spectrum. Their stance is
the stance of the Dhahiriyyah madhab, they take a literal approach to the text unless we have evidence
that the text is metaphorical.
WHY DIDN'T MUHAMMAD IBN ABDUL WAHHAB SUBSCRIBE TO THE

BATINIYYAH MADHAB?
He refused to subscribe to the batiniyyah madhab because he took his teachings from Ahmed ibn Hanbal
and ibn Taymiyyah. He was considered 100% Hanbali in madhab because he followed the madhab in
aqeeda and fiqh.
Whenever you follow one of the four great Imams in aqeeda and fiqh you will be protected from deviant
ideas. But if you follow one of the four great Imams in fiqh only you are not protected from deviant
ideas. Unfortunately, this is the plight of most Muslims today. They follow Imam Abu Hanifa, Malik and
Shafi in fiqh but not in aqeeda, so they have become deviants in regards to aqeeda.
Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab didn't invent a fifth Madhab, although he had the influence to do so,
because this would cause fitnah in the Ummah. We are happy with the four great Imams and there is no
need for a fifth madhab. Naasir Deen Albani tried to invent a fifth madhab and he failed miserably.
Due to the stance of Ahmed ibn Hanbal against all deviant groups of his era, he gained the title the Imam
of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah.
IS IT COMPULSORY FOR YOU TO FOLLOW A MADHAB?
It is not compulsory on a Muslim to rigidly follow one of the four madhabs; however, it is compulsory on
a Muslim to have a teacher who is an expert in aqeeda to teach him the Islamic creed. And it is
compulsory on him to have a teacher who is an expert in fiqh to teach him Islamic jurisprudence.
This is so because we were commanded by Allah to ask those who know if we dont know:
So ask the people who have knowledge of the scripture if you don't know.
(Al-Anbiya 21:7)
The people who say the Quran is metaphorical, they claim that the throne of Allah is an abstract noun
and not a concrete noun because the word arsh means the Glory of Allah. A concrete noun is a thing you
can see and touch like a car or a house. We use the following Quranic verse to refute their false claim:
And the angels will be on its sides, and eight angels will, that Day, bear the
Throne of your Lord above them. (Al-Haqqah 69:17)
If eight angels will carry the throne of Allah on the Day of Judgement, how can it be an abstract noun?!
The Sufis and Shias say don't take the Quran literally, but they are hypocrites they take the Quran
literally when it suits them. For example, they take 2:115 literally:
And to Allah belongs the east and the west. So wherever you [might] turn,
there is the Face of Allah. Indeed, Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
(Al-Baqarah 2:115) (Al-Baqarah 2:115)
They use the above mentioned verse to say Allah is everywhere, even though the verse means the
Knowledge of Allah is everywhere.
Also, they take Surah 50:16 literally:
And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein. (Qaf 50:16)
They use the above verse to promote wahdatul wujood [union]. The concept of union means a servant of
Allah can become so pious due to his righteous deeds, to the extent that he becomes one with Allah.
When he becomes one with Allah, he becomes a man-God. Hence, he doesn't need to pray anymore and
everything which is haram has become halal for him including zina and khamr.
The people who claim we take the Quran literally also say we are guilty of giving Allah human body parts.
This is called anthropomorphism. We refute them by saying it is impossible for us to give Allah human
body parts because Allah is not human. Therefore, Allah has two hands, but they are not like our hands
because Allah doesn't not resemble His creation in anyway shape or form. Allah told us in the following
Ayah that He has two Hands and He created Adam with His two Hands.
(Allah) said: "O Iblis (Satan)! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to
one whom I have created with Both My Hands. Are you too proud (to fall
prostrate to Adam) or are you one of the highly exalted?" (Sad 38:75)
We affirm this Ayah as it is mentioned in the Quran literally. Our understanding is that Allah has two
hands but it is not like our hands because Allah says:
There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer. (Ash-
Shura 42:11)
The clock on the wall has two hands and they don't resemble your hands. Allah is the Creator and we are
His creation, and Allah doesn't resemble His creation. The Prophet (saw) said Allah created four things
with His two Hands: Arsh, Pen, Adam and Paradise.
Mujahid narrated Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) said: “Allah created four things
with His Hand; 1. The Throne 2. The Pen 3. Aadam and 4. The paradise of
‘Adn. He then said to the rest of the creation ‘Kun’ [Be] and it was.” [Adh
Dhahabi in ‘Mukhtasar al-‘Uluw’ (p105), Abu al-Shaikh al-Asbahani in ‘al-
‘Adhuma' (5/1555), Tafsir al-Tabari (21/239), ‘The chain is authentic
according to the conditions of Muslim.’]
When you read the Quran and you see Allah mention His Face, Hands and Shin you have to take the
same stance as the sahabas. Therefore, you read it, believe it and leave it - do not put a spin on it like
the heretics do.
The Hanbali use the following Hadith to say Allah has two Eyes but His Eyes are not like our eyes:
‘Abdullah bin 'Umar (RA) said: One day the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
mentioned Al-Masih Dajjal (the Antichrist) in the presence of the people and
said, "Verily, Allah is not one-eyed but Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal is blind in the right
eye which looks like a swollen grape." [al-Bukhari (7127) and Muslim (169)]
Those who reject the concept that Allah has two Hands and two Eyes, their hearts are not pure. In their
hearts and mind they make Allah similar to His creation. They believe Allah's Hands are like our hands.
Due to this erroneous concept which is shirk, they deny that Allah has two hands. We, the members of
ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah do not believe that Allah's two Hands resemble our hands; hence, we have
no qualms about accepting the apparent meaning of the Ayah that says Allah has two Hands and He
created Adam with His two Hands.
If you are sincere about following an Imam, you would follow the Imam in fiqh and aqeeda. This is what
the Hanbalis do, we follow Ahmed ibn Hanbal in fiqh and aqeeda. When you are not sincere, you will
follow the Imam in fiqh but dump his aqeeda and this is what the Hanafis have done, they follow Abu
Hanifa in Fiqh but his not in Aqeeda because they don't want to give up shirk.
Instead of following Abu Hanifa in aqeeda, they follow a madman called Abu Mansoor al Maturudi from
Uzbekistan and dump the aqeeda of Abu Hanifa. The neo Hanafis claim that aqeeda is not important, so
in their institutions they teach Hanafi fiqh and no tawheed. But how could they make such a claim when
the founding father of the Hanafi madhab wrote a book on tawheed and called it Fiqh al Akbar. In his
book he asserted that the greatest subject of Islam is tawheed. It is clear that the neo Hanafis claim to
follow Abu Hanifa is a big lie. Their similitude is like the Christians who claim to follow Jesus, yet they eat
pig, are uncircumcised and worship three gods in a trinity.

Important::::: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XpA0ZTaqQk
Another false claim of the Hanafis is that it is bida'h to ask a Muslim “where is Allah?”. They say asking
Muslims “where is Allah?” is one of the hallmarks of a Wahhabi and it is un-Islamic. We use the follow
hadith to refute their false claim:
It is narrated that the companion Muàwiyah ibn al-Hakam, (RA) slapped his
servant girl who used to tend his sheep, and as a result went to the Prophet
(SAWS) and asked what should be done as an atonement for having slapped
her. The Prophet replied, "Bring her to me" so Muàwiyah brought her to the
Prophet. The Prophet then asked her, "Where is Allah?" and she replied
"Above the Sky (heavens)" then the Prophet asked her, "Who am I?" and she
replied, "You are Allah’s Messenger", so the Prophet said, "Free her, for verily
she is a true believer." [Sahih Muslim (1/381) No. 537]
In the above mentioned Hadith the Prophet (saw) asked a slave girl “where is Allah?” and we are not
allowed to assume the Prophet (saw) did bida'h by asking the question. The reason why the mushrikeen
don't like to be asked “where is Allah?” is because they claim Allah is everywhere. None of the four great
Imams believed Allah is everywhere.
Abu Haneefah (rh) said, when asked of his opinion of the one who says, ‘I do
not know whether Allah is above the heavens or on the earth.’ - “He has
disbelieved, because Allah says, “The Most Merciful rose above the Throne,”
and His Throne is above His seven heavens.’ He was then asked , ‘what if he
said that Allah is above His Throne but he does not know whether the Throne
is in the heavens or on the earth?’ He said, ‘He has disbelieved, because He
has denied that He is above the heavens, And whosoever denied that He is
above the heavens has disbelieved.” (‘Sharh Usul I’tiqaad Ahlus Sunnah’ of
al-Laalikaaee (d.414AH), ‘al-Uluww’ of adh- Dhahabee, also ‘Sharh Aqueedah
at-Tahaawiyyah’ of ibn Abee al-Izz al-Hanafee)
The Maliki Sufis are liars as well because they claim to follow Imam Malik. But when we compare their
ideology to the beliefs of Imam Malik, we can safely conclude that they do not follow Imam Malik. The
Maliki Sufis preach that Allah is everywhere, and according to the following fatwa of Imam Malik, he was
innocent of such zandaqa [heresy].
Ja'far Ibn Abdullah narrated: We were with Malik Ibn Anas when a man came
to him and said: “O Abu Abdullah (Allah said) 'Ar-Rahman upon the Throne
Istawa' (20:5), how was His Istiwa? Imam Malik inclined his head and was
silent until the sweat of fever covered his brow, then he looked up and said:
"Istiwa is not unknown, the Kayf (how) is uncomprehendable, believing in it
is wajib (obligatory), and asking about it is bid'ah (innovation), and I do not
think that you are anything but an innovator." Then he ordered that the man
be expelled. [Abu-Naeem Al-Asbahani in 'Hilyatul-Awliya wa Tabaqat Al-
Asfiya' (Vol. 6, pg. 325-326)]
Imam Ahmad: (RA)He was asked: "Is Allah above His 'Arsh, above the
seventh heaven, separate from His creatures, and is His knowledge and
power encompassing everything everywhere?" He replied: "Certainly, He is
above His 'Arsh and nothing escapes His knowledge." [Al-Juyush al-
Islamiyyah, Ibn al-Qayyim, p. 123] All of the above show that the entire
Muslim 'Ummah, in the past and present, is in unison regarding the belief in
the Loftiness and Supremacy of Allah, the Exalted.
As for the Berailvis you are a liar with your claim to follow abu Hanifa because you
believe Allah is everywhere and Abu Hanifa use to make takfir on people with such a
belief.
WHY DO THE SUFIS INSIST THAT ALLAH IS EVERYWHERE?
The Sufis refuse to believe that Allah is above the arsh and they insist that Allah is everywhere in person.
This ideology is farfetchedness because Allah is not in unholy places like the toilet and the brothel.
However, Allah sees everywhere.
The Sufis claim if we believe Allah is above the arsh, we are restricting Allah. And it is wrong to put a
limit on Allah. The reason why the Sufis insist that Allah is everywhere is because they use this ideology
to promote their belief in wahdatul wujood, Union.
The spiritual father of Wahhabism is Ibn Taymiyyah. Therefore, you shouldn't be surprised that his books
are banned in Egypt and Jordan because the Islamic State take all their aqeeda from Ibn Taymiyyah and
Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab. They even banned the books of Bin Baaz and Uthaymeen because they
also take their aqeeda from Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab.
The other principle of the Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab movement is that they rely on Hadith
revelation, not reason. The hypocrites rely on reason, not revelation because they want to make up their
own religion called Hislam, not Islam. The following three Quranic verses refute the stance of the
Parvezis [Hadith rejectors]:
Say (O Muhammad SAW to mankind) : "If you (really) love Allah then follow
me (i.e. accept Islamic Monotheism, follow the Qur'an and the Sunnah), Allah
will love you and forgive you of your sins. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most
Merciful." (Aali Imran 3:31)
And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) gives you, take it, and
whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it), and fear Allah. Verily, Allah is
Severe in punishment. (Al-Hashr 59:7)
And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad SAW) the reminder and
the advice (the Qur'an), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent
down to them, and that they may give thought. (An-Nahl 16:44)
One of the main principles of the Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab movement is the takfir of Shias and
extreme Sufis. They call the followers of this movement "tafiris". The word takfir means to pronounce a
Muslim an infidel. It is also translated as excommunicate. As Muslims, we have no choice but to make
takfir on the Shia because their creed is zandaqa, heresy. For example, they accuse Ayesha, the wife of
the Prophet (saw) of having an affair. The following extract from the Shia holy book is our evidence that
they accuse Ayesha of having an affair.
SHIA HUJJAH: The Shia believe that at the time of Mahdi’s return Imam
Mahdi will resurrect Aisha (Prophet Mohammad’s wife) and execute the law
of Hudud on her, for committing Zina (adultery) during her marriage. (Al-
Anwar Al-Numaniyah, vol. 1, p. 161, Tafsir al-Shafi, vol. 2, p. 108, Haq al-
Yaqeen, vol. 2, p. 256, Hayat al-Qulub, vol. 2, p. 611)
Allah ta alla has informed the Ummah of Muhammad (saw) that Ayesha didn't have an affair and when
the hypocrites of Madina accused her of adultery, it was an ifk, a big lie. Hence, Allah said:
Verily! Those who brought forth the ifk, slander against 'Aishah the wife of
the Prophet (SAW) are a group among you. Consider it not a bad thing for
you. Nay, it is good for you. Unto every man among them will be paid that
which he had earned of the sin, and as for him among them who had the
greater share therein, his will be a great torment. (An-Nur 24:11)
We have no choice but to make takfir on the Shias because they elevate their imams are above the
Angels and the Prophet (saw).
SHIA HUJJAH: It is a fundamental principle of faith that our (Shia) Imams

have ranks higher than the ranks of angels & God's prophets. (Khomeini's
book, Hukuma Islamiya, p. 52)
Additionally, they claim the Quran is corrupted. By saying this they are saying Allah broke His promise to
protect the Quran.
SHIA HUJJAH: The present Quran is in an altered, corrupted and distorted

form.. (Fatuhat-e-Shia, p. 129)
In the following Ayahs Allah ta alla has promised mankind that he shall protect the Quran from corruption
and human interference
Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur'an) and
surely, We will guard it (from corruption). (Al-Hijr 15:9)
Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it (it is) sent down by
the All-Wise, Worthy of all praise (Allah). (Fussilat 41:42)
They also claim Allah is a liar and makes mistakes.
SHIA HUJJAH: “Allah often lies and does mistakes” [Usool-al-Kafi, page 328,
Yacoob Kulayni, Vol. 1]
As for the extreme Sufis who we make takfir on, they claim that the Prophet Muhammad (saw) was nur
and not a human. This creed contradicts the following Quranic verse:
Say (O Muhammad SAW) : "I am only a man like you. It has been inspired to
me that your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God i.e. Allah). So whoever hopes for the
Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a
partner in the worship of his Lord." (Al-Kahf 18:110)
The above mentioned Quranic verse states that Muhammad (saw) was a human just like us. He was born
as a result of marriage, he ate food and drank, he suffered hunger and thirst, he had emotions of joy and
sorrow, he cried when he was hurt like all other humans. The following Hadiths explain further:
Abu Talhah (RA) narrated: We complained to Allah’s Messenger (SAW) about

our hunger and raising from our stomach (the garment) bared the stone each
of us had tied to it. He showed that he had two stones (tied to his stomach.)
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/585) No. 2371, Bayhaqi in ‘Shu'ab al Emaan’ (13/54) No.
9943]
Narrated By Anas bin Malik: We went with Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) to the
blacksmith Abu Saif, and he was the husband of the wet-nurse of Ibrahim
(the son of the Prophet). Allah's Apostle took Ibrahim and kissed him and
smelled him and later we entered Abu Saif's house and at that time Ibrahim
was in his last breaths, and the eyes of Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) started
shedding tears. 'Abdur Rahman bin 'Auf said, "O Allah's Apostle, even you are
weeping!" He said, "O Ibn 'Auf, this is mercy." Then he wept more and said,
"The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say
except what pleases our Lord, O Ibrahim ! Indeed we are grieved by your
separation." [Sahih Bukhari (2/83) No. 1303]
The other difference we have with the extreme Sufis is their claim that the Prophet Muhammad (saw) is
ever living; hence, he is still alive in the grave so we are allowed to pray to him and beg him for what we
want. We, the members of ahlas sunnah wal jamaa'ah, have evidences from Quran and Sunnah that the
Prophet Muhammad (saw) has passed away. Hence, Allah said:
Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be
paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Fire and
admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of this world is only the
enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing). (Aali Imran 3:185)
Verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) will die and verily, they (too) will die. (Az-
Zumar 39:30)
By you claiming Muhammad is still alive, you have gone agains the Quran and the sahabas who said he
was dead
"Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you even if you are in
fortresses built up strong and high!" (An-Nisa 4:78)
When the Prophet (saw) passed away in Madina, the Muslims were devastated. So Abu Bakr Saddiq
addressed the crowd by saying:
“if
anyone amongst you used to worship Muhammad , then Muhammad is
dead, but if (anyone of) you used to worship Allah, then Allah is Alive and
shall never die. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 5, Book 59, Hadith #733]
When Abu Bakr Saddiq mad the pronouncement that the Prophet (saw) was dead, none of the sahabas
objected to his statement. Therefore, this means there was ijma among the sahabas that the Prophet
(saw) had passed away. Hence, when the Sufis claim that the Prophet (saw) is still alive and did not die,
they are guilty of going against Quran and Sunnah and the ijma of the sahabas. To go against the ijma of
the sahabas is major kufr.
The extreme Sufis also claim Muhammad (saw) has all of his faculties in the grave and he is fully aware
with the fiqhul waqi of the Ummah (current affairs). The following Hadith refutes their false claim:
Abu Huraira narrated that the Prophet said, "On the Day of Resurrection a
group of companions will come to me, but will be driven away from the Lake-
Fount, and I will say, 'O Lord (those are) my companions!' It will be said,
'You have no knowledge as to what they innovated after you left; they turned
apostate as renegades (reverted from Islam)." [Sahih Bukhari (8/120) No.
6585]
If the Prophet Muhammad (saw) has all of his faculties in the grave, why is it that he is not aware that
some of his sahabas apostated after his death?
Another difference we have with the extreme Sufis is the issue of tawassul. The Arabic word “tawassul”
means to seek a means to draw near to Allah. We, the members of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah practice
tawassul with pious deeds by calling upon Allah with his 99 names and attributes or with the dua of a
pious person. However, the extreme Sufis practice tawassul by saying "O Allah forgive me of my sins
because of the greatness of Muhammad". They also quote the following fabricated Hadith as their hujjah:
“When Adam sinned, Allah told him to seek forgiveness in the name of
Muhammad, then Allah said to him: Had it not been for Muhammad I
wouldn’t create the heavens and the earth. I Allah created the heavens and
the earth for the sake of Muhammad." O Adam, I have forgiven you, and
were it not for Muhammad I would not have created you." It was transmitted
through many chains and was cited by Bayhaqi (in Dala'il al-nubuwwa), Abu
Nu'aym (in Dala'il al-nubuwwa), al-Hakim in al-Mustadrak (2:615), al-
Tabarani in his Saghir (2:82, 207) [this hadith is fabricated]
Another difference we have with the extreme Sufis is praying to the inhabitants of the grave and asking
them to fulfill their needs. The following Ayahs refute their pagan doctrine.
Surely, the religion (i.e. the worship and the obedience) is for Allah only. And
those who take Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say) : "We
worship them only that they may bring us near to Allah." Verily, Allah will
judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly, Allah guides
not him who is a liar, and a disbeliever. (Az-Zumar 39:3)
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case)
they were to hear, they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the
Day of Resurrection, they will disown your worshipping them. And none can
inform you (O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who is the All Knower (of each and
everything). (Fatir 35:14)
It is haram for us to pray to the graves because the inhabitants in the graves cannot hear us. And even if
they hear, they cannot grant us our request. Moreover, the Prophet (saw) told us in the following Hadith
that the grave is an idol that people worship. Hence, those who pray to the graves are kuffar and idol
worshippers.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn Yasar that
the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "O Allah! Do not make my grave an idol
that is worshipped. The anger on those who took the graves of their Prophets
as places of prostration was terrible." [Muwatta Malik (1/223) No. 570,
Musannaf Abdur Razzaq (1/406) No. 1587, Musnad Ahmad (2/246) No.
7352]
When you pray to the grave, you are an idol worshipper like the Buddhist and Hindu. The Prophet
Muhammad (saw) told his cousin Ali to demolish all structures that are built over graves. So when
Shariah comes to a land, all Sufi monuments that are built over graves have to be demolished. The
following Hadith explains further:
Abu'l-Hayyaj al-Asadi told that 'Ali (b. Abu Talib) said to him: Should I not
send you on the same mission as Allah’s Messenger (‫ )ﷺ‬sent me? Do not
leave an image without obliterating it, or a high grave without levelling It.
This hadith has been reported by Habib with the same chain of transmitters
and he said: (Do not leave) a picture without obliterating it. Sahih Muslim:
Book 4, Hadith 2115
The following Hadith is used by the scholars to refute the extreme Sufis who claim that it is permissible to
go to the grave of the Prophet in times of hardship and pray to him and ask him to remove our suffering:
Narrated By Anas: Whenever drought threatened them, 'Umar bin Al-

Khattab, used to ask Al-Abbas bin 'Abdul Muttalib to invoke Allah for rain. He
used to say, "O Allah! We used to ask our Prophet to invoke You for rain, and
You would bless us with rain, and now we ask his uncle to invoke You for
rain. O Allah ! Bless us with rain." And so it would rain. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2,
Book 17, Hadith #123]
If it were permissible for Muslims to go to the grave of the Prophet (saw) in times of hardship to pray to
him and ask him to relieve them from their sufferings, Umar would have gone to the grave of the Prophet
(saw) when he suffered a severe drought during his Caliphate.
It is haram for a Muslim to pray in a masjid where a grave is inside of it. Some students of knowledge
asked a panel of scholars about the status of a masjid that has a grave inside of it. Below is the question
of the students and the fatwa of the scholars.
Is it correct to pray in mosques in which there are graves?
Praise be to Allaah.
Prayers should not be offered in mosques in which there are graves. The
graves should be dug up and the remains transferred to the public
graveyards, with each set of remains placed in an individual grave as with all
other graves. It is not permissible for graves to be left in mosques, whether
that is the grave of a wali (“saint”) or of anyone else, because the Messenger
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade that and warned against
that, and he cursed the Jews and Christians for doing that. It was narrated
that he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“May Allah curse the Jews and the Christians, for they took the graves of their
Prophets as places of worship.” ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her)
said, “He was warning against what they had done.” Narrated by al-
Bukhaari, 1330, Muslim, 529.
And when Umm Salamah and Umm Habeebah told him about a church in
which there were images, he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
said: “When a righteous man died among them, they would build a place of
worship over his grave and put those images in it. They are the most evil of
mankind before Allaah.” (Saheeh, agreed upon. Al-Bukhaari, 427; Muslim,
528
The other special characteristic of the Hanbali madhab and the movement of Muhammad ibn Abdul
Wahhab is making takfir on Muslims who abandon salah. The Hanbalis use the following evidences from
Quran and Sunnah to make takfir on lazy Muslims who abandon salah:
But if they repent, perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) and give Zakat, then
they are your brethren in religion. (In this way) We explain the Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who
know. (At-Tawbah 9:11)
In the above Ayah Allah laid down three conditions for us to accept new reverts into the fold of Islam.
These conditions are tawbah from kufr, salah and zakah. If these three conditions are not met, we
cannot accept them as our brothers in deen. The following three Hadiths explain further that we need to
pray to be Muslims:
Jabir (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Between a man
(Muslim) and shirk and disbelief lies neglect of salah.” [Sahih Muslim (1/88)
No. 82, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/13) No. 2620, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/219) No.
4678, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/181) No. 1078, Sunan An-Nasa'i (1/232) No. 463,
Buraidah reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, "The pact between us and
them is prayer. Whoever abandons it is a disbeliever." [Musnad Ahmad
(5/346) No. 22987, Sunan al-Nasa'i (1/231) No. 463, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/13-
14) No. 2621, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/181) No. 1079]
Abdullah ibn Shaqiq Uqayli (RA) reported, saying “The companions of

Muhummad (SAW) did not regard neglect of any of the deeds as disbelief as
they did (neglect) of Salah." [Sunan Tirmidhi (5/14) No. 2622 and Mustadrak
al-Haakim (1/48) No. 12 who said it met the conditions of al-Bukhari and
Muslim]
Another issue we have with the Sufis is the wearing of amulets for protection. We, the members of Ahlas
Sunna wal Jamaa'ah, consider this to be shirk. The following Hadiths explain further:
‘Whoever wears an amulet has committed shirk.” [Musnad Ahmad (4/156)

No. 17458 and Mustadrak al-Haakim (4/243) No. 7513]
It was narrated that ‘Uqbah ibn ‘Aamir said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “Whoever wears an amulet,
may Allaah not fulfil his need, and whoever wears a sea-shell, may Allaah not
give him peace.” (Narrated by Ahmad, 16951)
A Muslim who wants to be protected by the Holy Quran has to recite it. As for wearing the Quran for
protection, this is a bid'ah and no sahaba did such an action.
Another characteristic of the movement of Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab is making takfir on those
leaders who dismantle the shariah. Hence, their enemies label them as wahhabis and takfiris. The
following are some important fatawa of the classical scholars making takfir on the leaders who dislodge
the sharia:
Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said: “And it is known from the religion (of Islam) by
necessity and by the consensus of all Muslims that whoever legalizes to
follow other than the religion of Islam or a Shariah other than the Shariah of
Muhammad (SAW), he is a Kaafir. And his kufr is similar to that of the one
who believes in some part of the book (Quran) and reject some of it.”
[Majmua al-Fataawa (28/524)]
Ibn Katheer (rh) said: “Thus, it has become in his sons a followed law to
which they have been giving precedence over ruling by the book of Allah and
the Sunnah of His Messenger (SAW). Whoever does this is a Kaafir who must
be fought until he returns to the rule of Allah and His Messenger. So no one
other than He should rule neither minorly or majorly." [Tafseer Ibn Katheer
(3/131)]
While 'Allama al-Shinqiti-May Allah be merciful with him-has said: To commit

shirk with Allah in judging is of the same meaning as to commit shirk in His
worship, there is no difference between the two in any manner. There is no
difference in any sense between he who follows a system (nizam) other than
Allah's system or law other than Allah's law (sharia) and he who worships an
idol or prostrates to a false god. They are the same and both are polytheists
[associating others] with Allah. [Adwa' al-Bayan, (7/162)]
Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen said: "The first type is when the
Hukm of Allah is removed and replaced with another Taghuutee Hukm, so
that the Hukm of the Shari'ah is eliminated between the people and he puts
in its place another Hukm from the fabrication of the humans and they
remove the laws of the Shari'ah concerning the Mu'amalah (i. e. the general
actions between people) and they put in its place fabricated laws and this,
without doubt, is Istib'daal (i. e. replacement) of the Shari'ah of Allah
subhaanahuu wa-ta'ala, with other than it. And this is Kufr which removes
one from the Milla because this person put himself at the level of the Creator
because he shara'a (legislated) for the slaves of Allah that which Allah ta'ala
did not give permission for and that is Shirk in His, ta'ala's saying: "Or have
they partners with Allâh (false gods), who have instituted for them a religion,
which Allâh has not allowed?" (Ash-Shu'ara, 21) – "Fiqh Al-'Ebaadaat", #60
Shaikh 'Abdul-'Azeez Ibn 'Abdullah Ibn Baaz said: "There is no Eeman for the
one who believes the laws of the people and their opinions are superior to
the Hukm of Allah and His Messenger or that they are equal to it or that they
resemble it or who leaves it or replaces it with fabricated laws and
institutions invented by people, even if he believes that the laws of Allah are
more encompassing and more just." [Wujoob Tah'keem Shari'ah Allah' (pg.
16-17)]
Another difference of opinion the Hanbalis have with the Sufis is the practice of visiting monuments and
graves as pilgrims. The Sufis go in thousands all over the world to visit monuments and graves and use
these cites as legitimate places for pilgrims. The Hanbalis are of the view that only three masaajid are
legitimate places for pilgrimage because of the following Hadith:
Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬said, "Do not set out on a journey
except to three Masaajid i.e. Al-Masjid-AI-Haram, the Masjid of Allah’s
Messenger (‫ )ﷺ‬, and the Masjid of Al-Aqsa, (Masjid of Jerusalem)." Sahih al-
Bukhari : Vol. 2, Book 21, Hadith 281
It is worthy of mentioning that one salah in Al Masjid Al Haram in Makkah is equal to 100,000 salah. And
one salah in the Prophet's Masjid at Madinah is equal to 1000 salah. And one salah in Masjid of Al-Aqsa at
Jerusalem is equal to 500 salah.
Another characteristic of the Hanbali madhab is that whenever the Prophet (saw) gives an order, it
means fard, mandatory. Some Muslims, like the Mu'tazila, claim that a commandment from the Prophet
(saw) means the act is recommended and not fard. We use the following Hadith to refute their claim:
Narrated Ibn Àbbas: Barira’s husband was a slave called Mughith, as if I am

seeing him now, going behind Barira and weeping with his tears flowing
down his beard. The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬said to Àbbas, "O Àbbas ! are you not
astonished at the love of Mughith for Barira and the hatred of Barira for
Mughith?" The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬then said to Barira, "Why don't you return to
him?" She said, "O Allah's Messenger (‫ !)ﷺ‬Do you order me to do so?" He
said, "No, I only intercede for him." She said, “I am not in need of him.”
BUKHARI: Vol. 7, Book 63, Hadith 206
Barira was a slave who earned her freedom while her husband remained a slave. She was given a choice
to stay with him or move on to marry a man of her new status. Her husband, Mughith, was crying and
begging her to stay with him. The Prophet (saw) suggested she stay with him because of his love for her.
She said to the Prophet (saw) “Are you commanding me?” The Holy Prophet (saw) said “No, I am only
interceding on his behalf”. Upon hearing this, Barira said “I am not in need of him.” and moved on with
her life.
The Hanbalis said the female sahabia knew that if it was a command from the Prophet (saw) she would
be obliged to stay with him because a command from the Prophet means the act becomes mandatory.
Another incident that makes the Hanbali madhab unique is the incident of a man asking the Prophet
(saw) about making wudu after eating camel meat.
Bara bin Aazib (RA) said that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) was asked about
making ablution after eating camel flesh. He said, “Make ablution after that”.
Then he was asked about mutton. He said, “It is not necessary after that.”
[Sunan Dawud (1/47) No. 184, Sunan Tirmidhi (1/122) No. 81, Sunan Ibn
Majah (1/311) No. 494, Musnad Ahmad (4/303) No 18725]
In the Hanbali madhab camel meat breaks wudu because the Prophet (saw) said yes when the man
asked shall I make wudu after eating camel meat. In their view, yes is a command and the action is fard.
However, the other schools of thought believe that to make wudu after eating camel meat is
recommended and not fard. The correct view on this issue, is the stance of the Hanbalis because a
command of the Prophet means the action becomes fard.
Another difference of opinion between the Hanbalis and the Sufis is the concept that Allah descends
every night to the skys of the earth. The Hanbalis believe that Allah descends, while the Sufis believe that
an angel descends on behalf of Allah. The following Hadith explains further:
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA), who said that the Messenger of Allah
(SAW) said: "Our Lord (glorified and exalted be He) descends each night to
the earth's sky when there remains the final third of the night, and He says:
'Who is saying a prayer to Me that I may answer it? Who is asking something
of Me that I may give it him? Who is asking forgiveness of Me that I may
forgive him?'" [al-Bukhari (7494) (also by Muslim (758, Malik (619), at-
Tirmidhi (3498 and Abu Dawud (1315)]
Because of the above mentioned Hadith, the Hanbalis believe that Allah descends because an angel
doesn't have the power to forgive us of our sins. In the Hadith, Allah ask “Who is seeking forgiveness so
that I can forgive him?”. If you are asked by a Sufi how does Allah descend, the answer is: He descends
in a way that befits his dignity and majesty.
Another difference of opinion the Hanbalis have with the Sufis is the concept of seeing Allah on the Day
of Resurrection. The Sufis claim that it is impossible to see Allah because Allah said to Musa “Lan
taranee”, you will never see Me (Al-A'raf 7:143).
We, the Hanbalis believe that we cannot see Allah in the dunya like Allah said in the above Ayah,
however, we will see Allah in the hereafter and we have evidences from Quran and Sunnah to prove this
fact. Hence, Allah said:
There they will have all that they desire, and We have more (for them, i.e. a
glance at the All-Mighty, All-Majestic). (Qaf 50:35)
Some faces that Day shall be Nadirah (shining and radiant). Looking at their
Lord (Allah); (Al-Qiyamah 75:22-23)
Narrated By Abu Huraira: The people said, "O Allah's Apostle! Shall we see
our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" He replied, "Do you have any doubt in
seeing the full moon on a clear (not cloudy) night?" They replied, "No, O
Allah's Apostle!" He said, "Do you have any doubt in seeing the sun when
there are no clouds?" They replied in the negative. He said, “You will see
Allah (your Lord) in the same way. [al-Bukhari (770) and Muslim (352)]
QUESTION AND ANSWER
Q: asalam alekum shaikh why did the followers of muhammad ibn abdul
wahab fight against the ottoman caliphate, did they see it as legitimate if
they were not why did they fight against them?
The Caliphate of the Ottoman Empire became corrupted with Sufism. And with Sufism they abandoned al
wala al bara. Every Caliphate will crumble the moment they get involved with Sufism or irja because
these two groups are a cancer in the body of the Ummah.
Q: which translation of fiqh Al Akbar is good to read
It is always best to read a translation which is approved by the Ulama of Najd. This is so because a
translation which is done by the Sufis would be embellished. Hence, you are not allowed to trust their
translation. Sufis are known to embellish the works of the classical scholars by adding a lot of weak and
fabricated Hadiths to their writings. They did exactly this to the work of Imam Dahabi. Imam Dahabi
wrote a book called al Kabaa'ir i.e. The Major Sins, 80% of the Hadiths in this book were added by the
Sufis and they are either weak or fabricated.
Q: what kind of hujjah can be provided for those who say aqeedah is nor
important and tawheed is bidah because the word aqeedah is not found in
the Quran.
The people who say aqeeda is not important, we say to them fear Allah and stop misguiding
unsuspecting Muslims and we remind them that the Prophet (saw) spent 13 years in Makkah teaching his
sahabas aqeeda alone. Also, we remind them that the Prophet told Mu'adh ibn Jabbar, when he sent him
to Yemen, that he should begin his dawah with the tawheed of Allah.
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: When the Prophet sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to
him, "You are going to a nation from the people of the Scripture, so let the
first thing to which you will invite them, be the Tauhid of Allah. If they learn
that, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be offered in
one day and one night. And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on
them Zakat of their properties and it is to be taken from the rich among them
and given to the poor. And if they agree to that, then take from them Zakat
but avoid the best property of the people." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 9, Book 93,
Hadith #469] BukharI (9/98 Hadith: 7372)

And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) and (his son) Isma'il (Ishmael) were raising the
foundations of the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah), (saying), "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from
us. Verily! You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knower."(2:127)
IBRAHIM and his son building the KA’BAH

-they didn't assume Allah 'tala would accept their dua
-so we're to pray and ask Him to accept our duaas
-Ibrahim asked Allah to accept his effort of building the kab'ah
The deeds of the kaafiroon (disbelievers), murtadoon (apostates), munafiqoon (hypocrites) and
mishrikoon (pagans) are never accepted
-the faasiqoon (Muslim with weaknesses) salah and fasting are not rejected
-the deeds of the mushrik are not accepted either
-only the deeds (duaas and fasting) on the sincere believers are accepted
-those who drink alcohol have no salah for 40 days/ nights
"Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2)."(5:27
-people who are unscrupulous in their deeds, everything about them is haraam
-he raises his hands and says "ya rabb" but that is where he stops;

-are you eating halal food?
-are you rejecting the taghoot or in bed w/ them?
-do you practice al walaa wal baraa?
-where do you think Allah is? on the Arsh, or not?
-what is your opinion on democracy?
-what is your aqeeda?

IF YOUR DUAAS ARE NOT ANSWERED, ASK YOURSELF THOSE QUESTIONS
ARE YOU DOING DAWAH TO PROMOTE A GROUP OR ALLAH TALA?
ONLY THE PRAYERS / DUAAS / DEEDS / SALAH OF THE MUTAQEEN ARE ACCEPTED
TABLIGHI JAMM'AH: they believe Allah is everywhere but see 20:5

Majesty). (20:5)
-their walaa is not to Allah tala but to group (groupism) - asabiyya
-they turn their back on Qur'an and Sunnah instead of their group
Sayyidina Anas Radiallahu anhu reports: “I once said: Ya Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam
pray to Allah to make me of those whose Duas are directly accepted.” Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi
Wasallam replied: “O Anas, keep your earnings Halaal and pure and your Duas will be accepted
because if a man places one morsel of Haraam food in his mouth, his duas will not be accepted
for a period of forty days.” [Muslim]

-the mujahid: he will be told you lied, as you fought to be called brave heart
THEIR INTENTION WAS NOT CORRECT ... they did not have the proper ikhlaas (sincerity)
IF YOU'RE DOING GOOD DEEDS TO SHOW OFF - YOU WILL BE DISGRACED BY ALLAH 'TALA
Whoever seeks knowledge to argue with the scholars, or to show off with the ignorant people, and
attracts the faces of the people towards him, Allah would enter him into the Hellfire." [Hasan -

I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, say: "Actions are (judged) by motives
(niyyah), so each man will have what he intended. Thus, he whose migration (hijrah) was to Allah
and His Messenger, his migration is to Allah and His Messenger; but he whose migration was for
some worldly thing he might gain, or for a wife he might marry, his migration is to that for which
he migrated." [Al-Bukhari & Muslim]
WHEN THE PROPHET TOLD THE SAHABAHS THIS HADITH ...

-he only told one: UMAR
-he didn't spread this to others
-the one who migrated to Madinah to find a girl found one
-the most sacred place on earth, Makkah became darul harb
-"if my people didn't drive me out, I would never leave you"
CAN MAKKAH BECOME DARUL HARB? OH YES

-if you studied seerah, you'd know!
-it was darul harb in the past and Madinah was darul Islam
BATTLE OF BADR
-the people of darul Islam and darul harb
-Abu Jahl was the commander for the Makkkans
-the Rasool commanded Madinah (on the 17th of Ramadan)
-he said, "if you allow this small band to be destroyed,
-you will never be worshipped on this earth"
-the battle between BAUTIL and HAQQ
-the BATTLE OF TRUTH
-Abu Jahl also made a dua ... did he prayed to Allah,
-"if I was good to my family, give me victory"
And (remember) when Shaitan (Satan) made their (evil) deeds seem fair to them and said, "No one
of mankind can overcome you this Day (of the battle of Badr) and verily, I am your neighbour (for
each and every help)." But when the two forces came in sight of each other, he ran away and said
Verily, I have nothing to do with you. Verily! I see what you see not. Verily! I fear Allah for Allah is
Severe in punishment."(8:48)
THE BATTLE OF BADR : http://www.muslimyouthmusings.com/the-battle-of-badr/
"I FEAR ALLAH" - the shaitan said this and it was a lie; many people say it but don't mean it
-he worships his evil and corrupted desires
EVERY KAAFIR IS A HYPOCRITE AND EVERY HYPOCRITE IS A KAAFIR
Allah) said: "What prevented you (O Iblis) that you did not prostrate, when I commanded you?"
Iblis said: "I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You created from
clay."(7:12)
The shaitain is a racist, a Mu`tazilite (rationalist), a liar, pretender,

and also a kaafir and he is a complete package: he is ungrateful, wasteful, (wasting energy, time )
Verily, spendthrifts are brothers of the Shayatin (devils), and the Shaitan (Devil - Satan) is ever
ungrateful to his Lord.(17:27)
Did you realize that Allah tala used the word, KAAFIR to mean UNGRATEFUL
-kaafirs are ungrateful: they use us and then dump us
-they use us for contacts, money, s-x (zina)
-they dump us after they ingratiate themselves!
INGRATIATE = means to make someone fall in love w/ you and trust you
-you see someone w/ something you want, so you make them get close to you
-afterward, they get what they want and dump us
-this word is used in psychology everyday
WHEN IBRAHIM and his son built the KA’BAH

-they didn't take for granted Allah would accept their humble effort
-so they prayed and asked for Him (swt) to accept their dua
ALL HEARING and ALL KNOWING

-deaf people can not learn
-a good listener is a good learner
And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) and (his son) Isma'il (Ishmael) were raising the

us. Verily! You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.(2:127

MIGHT WITH MERCY IS APPRECIATED BY THE RECIPIENT

-if you can take revenge and you do not because you exercised mercy
-the recipient of the mercy will appreciate it
WHEN THE RASOOL CONQUERED MAKKAH, he was joined in by tribe after tribe
-there were only 2,000 people living there and they expected him to take revenge
-they killed Sumaya and her husband, Yasir
-they put an embargo against Madinah for 3 years
-they put a rotten intestine on the back of the Prophet when he went down in sajdah
-but did he take revenge? No ...... he said only 4 words:
"GO: YOU ARE FREE"
-it's 4 words in Arabic and English ...

-and they were SO surprised and the WHOLE OF MAKKAH EMBRACED ISLAM
WHEN A MAN HAS POWER AND HE CAN TAKE RETRIBUTION BUT HE FORGIVES THE
OPPRESSOR
-the mercy is appreciated by the recipient of the mercy
The conquest of Makkah took place in Ramadan, as well
ARABS ARE NOT BLOOD-THIRSTY: they are very merciful
SHAIKH IN SAUDI ARABIA

-when he was studying in university, he made mistakes
-he was always forgiven for his mistakes
SHAIKH IN THE UK
-Shaikh saw Jamaicans go to Morocco to get married
-these brothers were still smoking ganja (some sort of weed)
-some stopped coming to his study circle because they said Shaikh was too harsh re: the ganja
SHAIKH IN UNIVERSITY
-Shaikh read very rare books, not found in English
-he read Ahadith in Arabic
-he wanted to borrow a book but he was not allowed to take it from the library
-he tried anyway to take the book out but it had a chip in it .. ha!
-beep went off and the librarian said I TOLD YOU
-YOU CAN'T TAKE THE BOOK FROM THE LIBRARY
***the name of the book: Ad Dar al Katni
-when the beep went off, the librarian could have told the dean
-but he/she did not because: Arabs are merciful
WHEN WE DO ACTS OF IBAADAH, DON'T EXPECT THAT ALLAH TALA WILL ALWAYS ACCEPT IT
-says a duaa that it will be accepted
And by the Bait-ul-Ma'mur (the house over the heavens parable to the Ka'bah at Makkah,
continuously visited by the angels); (52:4)
There is another KA’BAH on top of our KA’BAH

-70,000 angels go there to make hajj everyday
-the KA’BAH is in the heaven and the Rasool saw it when he went there
-on his journey to [al Isra al miraj]
Who laid the foundation stone for the KA’BAH in the dunya? ANGELS
Who laid the foundation stone for the KA’BAH in MADINAH? THE RASOOL (saws)
Who laid the foundation stone for the KA’BAH (al Aqsa) in the Jerusalem? ANGELS
Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allah) [above all that (evil) they associate with Him] [Tafsir Qurtubi,
Vol. 10, Page 204] Who took His slave (Muhammad SAW) for a journey by night from Al-Masjid-al-
Haram (at Makkah) to the farthest mosque (in Jerusalem), the neighborhood whereof We have
blessed, in order that We might show him (Muhammad SAW) of Our Ayat (proofs, evidences,
lessons, signs, etc.). Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer. (17:1)
The two Qiblas were united and 40,000 Sahabahs attended
Abu Hurairah said about our beloved Prophet: “On the night Allah’s apostle was taken to the
journey (Al-Isra Wal-Miraaj), two cups, one containing wine and the other milk, were presented to
him at Jerusalem. He looked at it and took the cup of milk. Gabriel said “Praise be to Allah who
guided you to Al-Fitrah (the right path) if you had taken the cup of wine, your nation would have
gone astray.” (Sahih Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol.7 pg.338)
"MY UMMAH WILL NEVER UNITE UPON AN ERROR"
The Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said: “Allah will never allow my
Ummah to unite upon misguidance and incorrect beliefs. Allah’s mercy, blessings and protection
are with the largest group of Muslims. And he who deviates from this largest group of Muslims
will be thrown into Hell.” (Tirmidhi)
WHY ARE WE THE BEST UMMAH:

-on the night of al isa wal miraj, Muhammad (saws) chose the MILK
-after Ibrahim built the KA’BAH, he prayed for their efforts to be accepted
-he asked for their progeny to become Muslims only
"Our Lord! And make us submissive unto You and of our offspring a nation submissive unto You,
and show us our Manasik (all the ceremonies of pilgrimage - Hajj and 'Umrah), and accept our
repentance. Truly, You are the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful. (2:128)
-show us also the rituals of hajj and forgive us our sins

-they praised Him (SWT) for being so merciful
-they asked for the blessings on the bloodline of Ishmael
-Ishmael helped Ibrahim build the KA’BAH
-the Arabs come from the bloodline of Ishmael
-so most Arabs are Muslim and believe in "La ilaha illalla"
-he asked also to raise up a MESSENGER [which is greater than a prophet]
-his duaa went on to ask for also for Him (swt)
-to be sure the bloodline would be taught al Qur'an
-and they'd be purified from superstition
Our Lord! Send amongst them a Messenger of their own (and indeed Allah answered their
invocation by sending Muhammad Peace be upon him ), who shall recite unto them Your Verses
and instruct them in the Book (this Qur'an) Our Lord! Send amongst them a Messenger of their
own (and indeed Allah answered their invocation by sending Muhammad Peace be upon him ),
who shall recite unto them Your Verses and instruct them in the Book (this Qur'an)(2:129)
-also to be purified from omens [this is shirk]

-Muslims believe in QADR not omens
"Whoever cancels one's intention to do something because of attiyarah (an evil omen), that one
has committed shirk" (Imam Ahmad)
-belief in tawheed and omens can NOT go hand in hand
and Al-Hikmah (full knowledge of the Islamic laws and jurisprudence or wisdom or Prophethood,
etc.), and sanctify them. Verily! You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."(2:129)
NOTHING CHANGES DESTINY OTHER THAN DAILY DUAA
"Nothing could change the Qadar except Duà’." (Musnad Ahmad, Vol. 5, Hadith no. 277; Sunan
At-Tirmidhi, Vol. 3, Hadith no. 139; and classified as Hasan (good) Hadith by Al-Abaani in Sahih Al-
Jami` Hadith no. 7687)”
Allah blots out what He wills and confirms (what He wills). And with Him is the Mother of the Book
(Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz) (13:39)
WE ONLY GET WHAT WE ASK FOR IN OUR DUAAS
I am as My servant thinks I am. I am with him when he makes mention of Me. If he makes mention
of Me to himself, I make mention of him to Myself; and if he makes mention of Me in an assembly, I
make mention of …al-Buhkari, Muslim, at-Tirmidhi and Ibn-Majah) Imam Nawawi’s 40 Hadith
Qudsi]
IF YOU THINK ALLAH WILL NOT REMOVE YOUR DIRE STRAITS: HE WON'T
DON'T INSULT ALLAH WHEN YOU HAVE A CALAMITY / CATASTROPHE
As for man, when his Lord tries him by giving him honour and gifts, then he says (puffed up): "My
Lord has honoured me."16. But when He tries him, by straitening his means of life, he says: "My
Lord has humiliated me!"(89-15,16)
ALLAH TALA ANSWERED THE DUAA OF IBRAHIM

-and then sent us MUHAMMAD (pbuh)
-and we were given a bonus that he is a MESSENGER TO ALL OF MANKIND

-and we were given a bonus that he is a MERCY TO ALL OF MANKIND
-see 21:107
And We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) not but as a mercy for the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns
and all that exists). (21:107)
-to man and jinn, as well

-this is why we don't make istinja w/ bones
-because it is the food of the jinn
THE ANSWERED DUA:

1. RAISED UP MUHAMMAD AS A MESSENGER
2. RAISED HIM UP AS A MERCY TO ALL OF MANKIND
And who turns away from the religion of Ibrahim (Abraham) (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) except him
who befools himself? Truly, We chose him in this world and verily, in the Hereafter he will be
among the righteous(2:130)
The first to be clothed on that day will Ibrahim a.s (Bukhari)
THE 1ST PERSON TO BE CLOTHED ON JUDGMENT DAY WILL BE: IBRAHIM
THE RELIGION OF IBRAHIM IS only La ilaha illalla [see 3:67]
IBRAHIM WAS NEITHER A JEW OR CHRISTIAN BUT HE WAS A TRUE / UPRIGHT MUSLIM
-he was not a pagan
Ibrahim (Abraham) was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa (Islamic
Monotheism - to worship none but Allah Alone) and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (3:67)
Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibrahim (Abraham) and those with him,
when they said to their people: "Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship besides
Allah, we have rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred for
ever, until you believe in Allah Alone," (60:4)
IBRAHIM'S RELIGION IS KUFR BIT TAGHOOT / MONOTHEISM / LOVING AND HATING FOR THE
SAKE OF ALLAH
-this is what's known as MILLAT IBRAHIM
-it's beautifully written
-nothing to deserves to be worshipped beside Allah
-to reject faith in false deities
http://www.kalamullah.com/Books/MillatIbraheem.pdf
THE PROBLEM W/ THE UMMAH TODAY

-the shaikhs say to believe in Allah [la ilaha]
-but they are not saying to reject the taghoot [illalla]
-the haqq is distinct from the bautil
There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong
path. Whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most
trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. (2:256)
-truth and falsehood can not be hand in hand
TO BELIEVE IN ALLAH IS NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU A MUSLIM: YOU MUST REJECT THE
TAGHOOT
THE ONLY ARMY WE CAN JOIN IS THE MUJAHIDEEN ...
Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of
Taghut (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitan (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the
plot of Shaitan (Satan).(4:76)
THE BELIEVERS FIGHT FOR ALLAH AND THE INFIDELS FIGHT FOR THE TAGHOOT
AL WALAA WAL BARAA STUNNED SO MANY MULANAS WHO NEVER HEARD THIS OR FIQHUL
WAAQI
The best of the actions is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah. Abu
Dawud 40:4582
WHEN TRUTH COMES TO A COMMUNITY, IT SPLITS THEM INTO 2 HALVES
WE ARE NOT TO GO AGAINST THE IJMAA3 OF THE UMMAH:

1. THE QUR'AN IS PROTECTED
2. WE ARE NOT TO BELIEVER MUHAMMAD (pbuh) IS NOT THE LAST PROPHET
And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) after the right path has
been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the
path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination. (4:115)

Notes typed by acceptruth
Edited by AT6
- What is the definition of dua?

- Dua means supplication
- Dua is to ask Allah for something
- That is the definiton of dua
- There is no doubt that dua is the weapon of the believer

- Dua is an act of worship
Nu’man ibn Bashir (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said, “The supplication is
itself worship.” Then he recited. And your Lord says, “Call upon Me, and I shall
answer you. Surely those who are too arrogant to worship Me, they shall enter
Hell, disgraced.” (40: 60) [Tirmidhi (5/456) No. 3372, Abu Dawud (2/76) No. 1479,
Ibn Majah (5/5) No. 3828, Ahmad (4/271) No. 18410]
- You are not allowed to offer your dua to anyone except Allah
- Allah refers to those who offer duas to other than Allah as kaafirs
- Allah labelled them as liars and kaafirs
those who take Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say): "We worship
them only that they may bring us near to Allah." Verily, Allah will judge between
them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly, Allah guides not him who is a
liar, and a disbeliever. (Az-Zumar 39:3)
- Allah told us in the Quran that those who pray to the graves are worshipping the
graves
- There should be no doubt in your heart that they are kaafirs
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case) they
were to hear, they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of
Resurrection, they will disown your worshipping them. And none can inform you
(O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who is the AllKnower (of each and
- Allah says on Judgment Day they are going to deny their worshipping of them on the
Day of Judgment.
- The Prophet said the grave is an idol that people worship
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn Yasar that the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "O Allah! Do not make my grave an idol that is
worshipped. The anger on those who took the graves of their Prophets as places
of prostration was terrible." [Muwatta Malik (1/223) No. 570, Musannaf Abdur
Razzaq (1/406) No. 1587, Musnad Ahmad (2/246) No. 7352]
- The reason why this lecture is called Dua, the weapon of the believer, is because dua
changes Qadr.
"Nothing could change the Qadar except Duà’." [Musnad Ahmad, Vol. 5, Hadith
no. 277; Sunan At-Tirmidhi, Vol. 3, Hadith no. 139]
It was narrated from Thawban that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Nothing
increases one's life span except righteousness and nothing repels the Divine
decree except supplication, and a man may be deprived of provision by a sin that
he commits."' [Sunan Ibn Majah (5/152) No. 4022, Musnad Ahmad (5/277) No.
22440, Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/670) No. 1814, Sahih Ibn Hibban (3/153) No. 872, al-
Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (10/380) No. 11775]
- Another reason why this lecture is called Dua, the weapon of the believer, is because
the prophet said that dua is the noblest deed one can perform
The third reason is because whenever you make a dua Allah gives you one of three
things:
It was narrated from Abu Saeed (RA) that the Prophet (SAW) said: “There is no
Muslim who does not offer any Dua in which there is no sin or severing of family
ties but Allah will give him one of three things in return: either He will answer his
Dua sooner, or he will store it up for him in the Hereafter, or He will divert an
equivalent evil away from him because of it.” They said: “We will say a lot of
Dua.” The Prophet (SAW) said: “Allah is more generous.” [Musnad Ahmad (3/18)
No. 11149, Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/670) No. 1816, Adaab al-Mufrad al-Bukhari
(1/264) No. 710, Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaiba (10/201) No. 29780, Musnad Abi Ya'la
(2/296) No. 1019, al-Mu’jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani (4/337) No. 4368]
The Prophet had said: "Nothing is more honourable to Allah the Most High than
duà." [Sahih al-Jami` No.5268]
There is nothing nobler to Allah than Du‘a. [Recorded in Tirmidi, Ibn Maja, Ibn
Habban and Hakim narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah. Also cited in Tahzib al-
Kamil, Vol. 4, Page 309]
- If you make 1000 dua Allah will answer them.

- Why does Allah like dua?
- Because you need Allah
- You are expressing your weakness and tawwakul
- You are showing that you believe Allah exists

- You are showing that Allah is the most merciful
- It shows you believe that Allah is kind
- If you beg Him to forgive your sins you show that you believe that Allah is the all
merciful
On the authority of Anas (RA), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
say: "Allah the Almighty said: 'O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and
ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. [At-
Tirmidhi (also by Ahmad ibn Hanbal). Its chain of authorities is sound]
“Whoever does not call on Allaah, Allaah will be angry with him.” (Reported by al-
Tirmidhi, Kitaab al-Da’waat, 1/426; classed as hasan in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi, 2686)
- The munafiqun do not make dua

- They say Allah and His Rasool only make false promises
And when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease (of doubts) said:
"Allah and His Messenger (SAW) promised us nothing but delusions!" (Al-Ahzab
33:12)
- Hypocrites today say paradise and hell are just a myth.

- They are the same now as they were before, they are found everywhere
- Allah likes when you call upon Him and ask for forgiveness
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger having said: “By Him in Whose Hand is
my life, if you were not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you out of existence
and He would replace (you by) those people who would commit sin and seek
forgiveness from Allah, and He would have pardoned them.” [Sahih Muslim
(4/2106) No. 2749]
- People in the city of Zaria were shocked when shaikh quoted this hadith
And when My slaves ask you (O Muhammad) concerning Me, then (answer them),
I am indeed near (to them by My Knowledge). I respond to the invocations of the
supplicant when he calls on Me (without any mediator or intercessor). So let them
obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may be led aright. (Al-Baqarah 2:186)
Allah blots out what He wills and confirms (what He wills). And with Him is the
Mother of the Book (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz) (Ra'd 13:39)
- The tafsir of this verse is your dua wipes out calamities that are written to befall you
- There is no other tafsir
- You dua is so powerful it changes qadr and nothing else can change qadr
THE BEST TIMES TO MAKE DUA:
1) THE LAST THIRD OF THE NIGHT
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA), who said that the Messenger of Allah
(SAW) said: "Our Lord (glorified and exalted be He) descends each night to the
earth's sky when there remains the final third of the night, and He says: 'Who is
saying a prayer to Me that I may answer it? Who is asking something of Me that I
may give it him? Who is asking forgiveness of Me that I may forgive him?'" [al-
Bukhari (7494) (also by Muslim (758), Malik (619), at-Tirmidhi (3498) and Abu
Dawud (1315)]. In a version by Muslim the Hadith ends with the words: "And thus
He continues till [the light of] dawn shines."
2) WHEN YOU ARE IN SAJDA

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “The closest that
the slave can be to his Lord is when he is prostrating, so increase your du’aa’ [at
that time].” (Reported by Muslim, Kitaab al-Salaah, Baab maa yuqaalu fi’l-rukoo’
wa’l-sujood. No. 215). And he said: “… As for sujood, strive hard to make du’aa’
in it, for it is bound to be answered for you.” (Reported by Muslim, Kitaab al-
Salaah, Baab al-Nahy ‘an qiraa’at al-Qur’aan fi’l rukoo’ wa’l-sujood, no. 207)
- Can you make dua in English in sajda?

- This is only allowed in the sunnah prayers but not in the fard prayers.
3) THE DAY OF JUMU'AH
Narrated Abu Hurairah (RA): Allah’s Messenger (SAW) talked about Friday and
said: 'There is an hour on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while offering Salat
(prayer) and asks something from Allah (SWT), then Allah (SWT) will definitely
meet his demand.' And he (the Prophet (SAW) pointed out the shortness of that
particular time with his hands. [Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 13, Hadith 57;
Bukhari, Vol 2 Book 11 Hadith 59]
The most authentic of these is where Jâbir relates that the Prophet (peace be
upon him) said: “Friday is comprised of twelve hours. There is one in which a
Muslim who asks Allah for something will have it granted to him. Seek it in the
last hour after Àsr.” [Sunan Abî Dâwûd (1048), Sunan al-Nasâ’î (1389)
and Mustadrak al-Hâkim (1032)]
- Some have said that this hour is from the time the Imam (prayer’s leader) enters the
mosque on Friday’s prayer until the prayer is over (ie between the two khutbahs)
- Whereas others have said that it is the last hour of the day (ie after the Asr prayer until
the Maghrib prayer)
- Allah knows best
4) THE DAY OF ARAFAT
Amr ibn Shu’ayb reported from his father who from his grandfather that the
Prophet (SAW) said, “The best of supplication is the supplication on the day of
Arafah. And the best of what I said - I and the Prophets before me is: ،ُ ‫ﻻَ إِﻟَﮫَ إِ ﱠﻻ ﱠ‬
ٌ ‫ﺷ ْﻲءٍ ﻗَد‬
‫ِﯾر‬ َ ‫ َوھ َُو‬،ُ‫ ﻟَﮫُ اﻟ ُﻣ ْﻠكُ َوﻟَﮫُ اﻟ َﺣ ْﻣد‬،ُ‫" َوﺣْ َد ُه ﻻَ ﺷ َِرﯾكَ ﻟَﮫ‬Laa ilaaha ill Allah waHdahu laa
َ ‫ﻋﻠَﻰ ُﻛ ِّل‬
shareeka lah, lahul mulku wa lahul Hamdu wahuwa ‘alaa kulli shay’in qadeer"
(There is no God but Allah Who is Alone. He has no partner. To Him belongs the
dominion and to Him belongs all praise And He is over all things
powerful). [Sunan Tirmidhi (5/572) No. 3585]
- The day of Eid is 10 dhul hijjah
5) BETWEEN THE ADHAN AND THE IQAAMAH
It was narrated that 'Uqbah bin 'Amir said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
say: 'Your Lord is pleased with a shepherd high in the mountains who calls the
Adhan for the prayer and prays. Allah says: 'Look at this slave of Mine; he calls
the Adhan and Iqamah for the prayer and fears Me. I have forgiven My slave and
admitted him to Paradise.'" [Sunan al-Nasa'i (2/20) No. 666]
Anas (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: 'A supplication made
between the Adhan and Iqama is not rejected.' [Ahmad, abu Dawud #521, at-
Tirmidhi #212, Sahih al-Jami #3408, an-Nasai and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih
(sound)]
6) WHEN DRINKING ZAM ZAM
Jaber (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: 'Zamzam water is for
what it is drunk for.' [Ahmad Vol: 3 Hadith 357; Sunan Ibn Majah Volume 1 Book
25 Hadith 3062 & Book 25 Hadith 3178]. This means that when you drink
Zamzam water you may ask Allah (SWT) for anything you like to gain
or benefit from this water such as healing from illness, etc.
- The hadith that says that when you love Zam Zam you are free from hypocrisy is
fabricated.
FABRICATED: "Drinking one's fill of Zamzam water is a sign of being free of

hypocrisy." [Mawdoo (Fabricated), Silsilah-Daeefah No. 2682]
7) AT THE END OF YOUR FARD PRAYERS
Narrated Abu Omamah (RA): that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) was asked, O
Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah (SWT), he said the end
of the night and at the end of the obligatory Salat (prayer) [At-Tirmidhi; Riyadh Us
Saleheen Chapter 252 Hadith 1500] This time is after saying 'At-tahyat', and
before making Tasleem (finishing prayer)
- If you pray behind the imams of makka and Madina they will never make a dua after
the tasleem.
8) DURING THE NIGHT OF LAYATUL QADR
Indeed, We sent the Qur'an down during the Night of Decree. (Al-Qadr 97:1) Sahih
International
And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree? (Al-Qadr 97:2) Sahih
International
The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months (Al-Qadr 97:3) Sahih
International
This night is the greatest night of the year. This is the night which the almighty
Allah (SWT) said about it, "The night of Al-Qadar (Decree) is better than a
thousand months." [Surah al-Qadr, 97: 3]
9) DURING THE RAIN
Narrated Sahel Ibn Sa'ad (RA): that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: 'Two will
not be rejected, Supplication when the Adhan (call of prayer) is being called, and
at the time of the rain'. [Al-Hakim 2: 114, and Abu Dawud #2540, ibn Majah]
10) WHEN YOU ARE OPPRESSED
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: The Prophet sent Mu'adh to Yemen and said, "Fear the
supplication of the oppressed, for there is no barrier between it and Allah." [al-
Bukhari (1496) and Muslim (19)]
11) WHILE YOU ARE A TRAVELLER
12) THE PARENT FOR THE CHILD

Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger said, "Three prayers are
surely answered: the supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the
traveller, and the supplication of the father for his son." [Sunan Tirmidhi (5/502)
No. 3448, Sunan Ibn Majah (5/30) No. 3862, Musnad Ahmad (2/258) No. 7501,
Sunan Abu Dawud (2/89) No. 1536]
13) IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TASHA'HHUD
“Allaahumma innee a’oodhu bika min sharri maa ‘amiltu wa min sharri maa lam
a’mal (O Allaah, I seek refuge with You from the evil of what I have done and the
evil of what I have not done).”“Allaahumma haasibni hisaaban yaseeran (O
Allaah, make my accounting easy).”
Narrated Faddalah ibn Ubayd (RA): that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said:
'When anyone of you makes du'a, let him start by glorifying his Lord and praising
Him, then let him send blessings upon the Prophet (SAW), then let him pray for
whatever he wants' [abu Dawud #1481, at-Tirmidhi #3477]
Amr bin Malik Al-Janbi narrated that he heard Fadalah bin Ubaid saying: “The
Prophet heard a man supplicating in his Salat but he did not send Salat upon the
Prophet, so the Prophet said: ‘This one has rushed.’ Then he called him and said
to him, or to someone othat than him: ‘When one of you performs Salat, then let
him begin by expressing gratitude to Allah and praising Him. Then, let him send
Salat upon the Prophet, then let him supplicate after that, whatever he
wishes.’” [Abu Dawud: (1481) Book 8 Hadith 1476 & (Book 8 Hadith 66), At-Tirmidhi:
Volume 6 Book 45 Hadith #3477]
- When the prophet said let him send peace and blessings on the Prophet he was
talking about the tasha'hhud and that you should make your dua after it.
14) DURING THE MONTH OF RAMADAN
The Prophet (SAW) saying: 'When Ramadan comes, the Doors of Mercy (another
narration says Paradise) are opened, and the doors of Hell are closed, and the
Shaitans are locked up' Thus, it is clear that du'a during Ramadan has a greater
chance of being accepted, as the Gates of Paradise and Mercy are opened. [Sahih
al-Bukhari #1899, Muslim #1079 and others]
The prophet (SAW) declared, 'Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah)
are: when a fasting person breaks fast (in another narration, the fasting person
until he breaks his fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.' [Ahmad, at-
Tirmidhi - Hasan]

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin ‘As that the Messenger of Allah
said: “When the fasting person breaks his fast, his supplication is not turned
back.” [Sunan Ibn Majah Volume 1 Book 7 Hadith 1753; Sunan Ibn Majah Book 7
Hadith 1825]
15) WHEN THE TWO ARMIES COME FACE TO FACE
Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good)
which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. "Our
Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a
burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our
Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us
and grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maula (Patron, Suppor-
ter and Protector, etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people."(Al-
Baqarah 2:286)
Narrated Sahl ibn Sa'd: The Prophet said: Two (prayers) are not rejected, or
seldom rejected: Prayer at the time of the call to prayer, and (the prayer) at the
time of fighting, when the people grapple with each other. Musa said: Rizq ibn
Sa'id ibn AbdurRahman reported from AbuHazim on the authority of Sahl ibn Sa'd
from the Prophet as saying: And while it is raining. [Sunan Abu Dawud: (2540) &
Sunan Abu Dawud: Book 14, Hadith 2534} & (Book 15 Hadith 64)]
16) A FASTING PERSON WHEN HE IS BREAKING HIS FAST
The prophet (SAW) declared, 'Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah)
are: when a fasting person breaks fast (in another narration, the fasting person
until he breaks his fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.' [Ahmad, at-
Tirmidhi - Hasan]
17) THE DUA OF A PIOUS CHILD WHO IS GOOD TO THEIR PARENTS
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "Three men from
among those who were before you, set out together till they reached a cave at
night and entered it. A big rock rolled down the mountain and closed the mouth
of the cave. They said (to each other), Nothing could save you Tom this rock but
to invoke Allah by giving referenda to the righteous deed which you have done
(for Allah's sake only).' So, one of them said, 'O Allah! I had old parents and I
never provided my family (wife, children etc.) with milk before them. One day, by
chance I was delayed, and I came late (at night) while they had slept. I milked the
sheep for them and took the milk to them, but I found them sleeping. I disliked to
provide my family with the milk before them. I waited for them and the bowl of
milk was in my hand and I kept on waiting for them to get up till the day dawned.
Then they got up and drank the milk. O Allah! If I did that for Your Sake only,
please relieve us from our critical situation caused by this rock.' So, the rock
shifted a little but they could not get out."
The Prophet added, "The second man said, 'O Allah! I had a cousin who was the
dearest of all people to me and I wanted to have sexual relations with her but she
refused. Later she had a hard time in a famine year and she came to me and I
gave her one-hundred-and-twenty Dinars on the condition that she would not
resist my desire, and she agreed. When I was about to fulfil my desire, she said: It
is illegal for you to outrage my chastity except by legitimate marriage. So, I
thought it a sin to have sexual intercourse with her and left her though she was
the dearest of all the people to me, and also I left the gold I had given her. O
Allah! If I did that for Your Sake only, please relieve us from the present calamity.'
So, the rock shifted a little more but still they could not get out from there."
The Prophet added, "Then the third man said, 'O Allah! I employed few labourers
and I paid them their wages with the exception of one man who did not take his
wages and went away. I invested his wages and I got much property thereby.
(Then after some time) he came and said to me: O Allah's slave! Pay me my
wages. I said to him: All the camels, cows, sheep and slaves you see, are yours.
He said: O Allah's slave! Don't mock at me. I said: I am not mocking at you. So, he
took all the herd and drove them away and left nothing. O Allah! If I did that for
Your Sake only, please relieve us from the present suffering.' So, that rock shifted
completely and they got out walking.
[Sahih Al Bukhari: Volume: 3 Book 36 Hadith 472]
18) AFTER MAKING WUDU
Umar ibn Al-Khattab reported that the Prophet (SAW) said: 'There is not one of
you that makes wudu, and does it perfectly, then says: I testify that there is no
diety worthy of worship except Allah. He is Alone, having no partners. And I bear
witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger', except that the eight gates
of Paradise are opened for him, and he can enter into it through whichever one he
pleases' [Muslim #234, abu Dawud #162, Ahmad, an-Nasa'i]
19) WHEN THE ROOSTER CROWS
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Prophet (SAW) said: 'When you hear a
rooster crowing, then ask Allah for His bounties, for it has seen an angel, and
when you hear a donkey braying, then seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, for it
has seen a Shaitan' [Sahih al-Bukhari Volume; 4 Book 54 Hadith: 522 & Muslim:
Book 48 Hadith 112 & Book 35 Chapter 19 Hadith 6581]
20) WHEN ENTERING THE MASJID
Narrated Abu Qatada Al-Aslami: Allah's Messenger said, "If anyone of you enters
a mosque, he should pray two rakàt before sitting." [Sahih Al Bukhari (444) &
Sahih Al Bukhari Vol 1 Book 8 Hadith 435]
O Allah, open for me the doors Your Mercy. (Muslim)
It was narrated that Fatimah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah

said:"Whenever the Messenger of Allah entered the mosque he would say:
'Bismillah, was-salamu 'ala Rasulillah, Allahummagh-firli dhunubi waftah li
abwaba rahmatika. (In the Name of Allah, and peace be upon the Messenger of
Allah. O Allah, forgive me my sins and open to me the gates of Your mercy).'
When he left he would say: 'Bismillah, was-salamu 'ala Rasulillah, Allahummagh-
firli dhunubi waftah li abwaba fadlika. (In the Name of Allah, and peace be upon
the Messenger of Allah. O Allah, forgive me my sins and open to me the gates of
Your bounty).'" [Muslim Book 6 Hadith 82; Sunan Ibn Majah Vol: 1 Book 4 Hadith
771]
Abu Usaid reported that the Messenger of Allah said: When any one of you enters
the mosque, he should say:" O Allah! open for me the doors of Thy mercy" ; and
when he steps out he should say: 'O Allah! I beg of Thee Thy Grace." [Muslim
Book 6 Hadith 82; Muslim: Book 4 Hadith 1538]

NOTES typed LIVE by acceptruth

Edited and Formatted by AT5
DOES ALLAH ANSWER THE DUA OF THE KUFFAR?
The ulama brought evidence that Allah will answer the dua of the kuffaar
And when they board a ship, they supplicate Allah, sincere to Him in religion.
But when He delivers them to the land, at once they associate others with
Him (Al-’Ankabut 29:65)
These kuffaar when their ship was going to capsize, did not call upon idols
- they called on Allah Alone to save them
- they broke their word when they got back to land
- they worshipped idols
- this shows that Allah will answer the dua of a kaafir
- this comes with the condition that they do not worship other than Allah
- they did not call upon a false deity when they were on the ship
the scholars say that Allah answered the dua of iblees
He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
[Allah] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved (Al-Hijr 15:36-37)
SOME FAMOUS DUAS IN HISTORY
1) The dua of Adam (AS) when he approached the forbidden tree
They said, "Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive
us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers." (Al-A’raf
7:23)
- ‘They’ - means Adam and Eve
2) The dua of Noah (AS)

And Noah said, "My Lord, do not leave upon the earth from among the
disbelievers an inhabitant. Indeed, if You leave them, they will mislead Your
servants and not beget except [every] wicked one and [confirmed]
disbeliever. My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whoever enters my
house a believer and the believing men and believing women. And do not
increase the wrongdoers except in destruction." (Nuh 71:26-28)
- he made the dua because he saw that no one was going to believe
- only 80 believed
- Allah told Noah their hearts were sealed
- then Allah sent the flood and destroyed them
- Allah told Nuh that no one else will believe in his message in the following ayah
And it was inspired to Nuh (Noah): "None of your people will believe except
those who have believed already. So be not sad because of what they used to
do. (Hud 11:36)
3) The dua of Abraham (AS)
i. When he begged Allah to bless Makkah and make it a city of safety and
security
And [mention] when Abraham said, "My Lord, make this a secure city and
provide its people with fruits - whoever of them believes in Allah and the Last
Day." [Allah] said. "And whoever disbelieves - I will grant him enjoyment for
a little; then I will force him to the punishment of the Fire, and wretched is
the destination." (Al-Baqarah 2:126)
- because of the above dua of Abraham there will be no bloodshed in makkah

- nor can the dajjal enter nor will the people there starve
- because Abraham begged Allah to bless them with prosperity and safety
Have they not seen that We made [Makkah] a safe sanctuary, while people
are being taken away all around them? Then in falsehood do they believe,
and in the favor of Allah they disbelieve? (Al-’Ankabut 29:67)
ii. When he begged Allah to bless the bloodline of Ismael

Our Lord, and make us Muslims [in submission] to You and from our
descendants a Muslim nation [in submission] to You. And show us our rites
and accept our repentance. Indeed, You are the Accepting of repentance, the
Merciful. (Al-Baqarah 2:128)
- who is ‘us’? Abraham and Ismael
iii. When he begged Allah to raise up a prophet in Makkah
Our Lord, and send among them a messenger from themselves who will
recite to them Your verses and teach them the Book and wisdom and purify
them. Indeed, You are the Exalted in Might, the Wise." (Al-Baqarah 2:129)
- by sending Muhammad (SAW); this is Allah answering the dua of Abraham
4) The dua of Musa (AS)
So he watered [their flocks] for them; then he went back to the shade and
said, "My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me,
in need." (Al-Qasas 28:24)
Musa had to run away from Egypt

- Allah answered his dua
- it was a very simple dua but was answered
- this is a dua we should make, when you are in problems,
- always remember the dua of Musa
- Musa was living in the palace, he had to run away penniless
- Allah answered his dua promptly and provided him with a home, job and a wife
- when you are suffering all you have to do is make a dua
- but you don't make a dua, are you better than prophet Musa?
- he made a dua when he was in problems
- this is another famous dua in history
5) The dua of Yunus (AS)
And [mention] the man of the fish, when he went off in anger and thought
that We would not decree [anything] upon him. And he called out within the
darknesses, "There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have
been of the wrongdoers." (Al-Anbiya 21:87)
He was sent to the people of Nineveh (Mosul), Northern Iraq

- he was swallowed by the whale
- in the belly of the whale; he continued to make the dua
- then Allah told the whale to spit him out on the seashore
Abdullah Ibn Rafi', the freed slave of Umm Salamah said I heard Abu
Hurayrah narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “When Allah wanted
to keep Yunus in the belly of the whale, He revealed to the whale. He said,
“Take him inside but do not eat his flesh nor break his bones.” When the
whale went down to the depth of the sea, Yunus heard a voice, he said to
himself, “What is this?” Then Allah revealed to him, while he was inside the
whale’s belly, that it was glorification of the sea animals. Then while in that
state, Yunus also glorified Allah, which was heard by the angels.
They then said, "O our Lord, we heard a very weak voice coming from
unusual land.” Allah said, “That is My slave Yunus, he disobeyed me, so I
detained him inside a whale in the sea.” They said, “Is he the pious slave
from whom the good deeds ascended to You everyday and night?” Allah
replied, “Yes”. So the angels then pleaded on his behalf, so Allah ordered the
whale to throw him out on the shore.” [Tafseer al-Tabari (18/518), Tafseer
Ibn Abi Hatim (10/3227) No. 18278, Musnad al-Bazzar (15/34) No. 8227 and
Tafseer Ibn Katheer (5/367)]
And had he not been of those who exalt Allah, he would have remained
inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected. (As-Saffat 37:143-144)
- the above mentioned ayat proves the power of dua

- had he not made the dua he would have remained in the whale until the Day of
Judgment
6) The dua of the people of Nineveh
Then has there not been a [single] city that believed so its faith benefited it
except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the
punishment of disgrace in worldly life and gave them enjoyment for a time.
(Yunus 10:98)
- Allah asked if there had been any people in history;

- besides the people of Nineveh who had repented when they saw Allah's wrath coming
- they are the only people in human history to repent
- they did not let their pride get in the way
7) The dua of Sulaiman (AS)

- when he understood the language of the ant
So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me
to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my
parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by
Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants." (An-Naml 27:19)
This dua proves the humility of Sulaiman (AS)

- he acknowledges Allah’s favor upon him, it proves he was not ungrateful
- he begged for Allah to let him use the favor in a good way
- Sulaiman made dua for his father David

- the dua proves; it is good for you to leave behind righteous children
- who can make dua for you while you are in the grave
- it is a barakah for you to have children like this
Abu Huraira (RA) reported: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "When a man
dies, his deeds come to an end, except for three: (1) A continuous charity, (2)
knowledge by which people derive benefit, (3) pious son who prays for him."
[Adab al-Mufrad al-Bukhari No. 38, Muslim (3/1255) No. 1631, Abu Dawud
(3/117) No. 2880, al-Nasa'i (6/251) No. 3651, Tirmidhi (3/660) No. 1376, al-
Darime (1/148) No. 559, Ahmad (2/372) No. 8831]
- it proves you should always beg Allah to let you be in the company of the righteous
- Allah told you the good company to keep
And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger - those will be with the ones
upon whom Allah has bestowed favor of the prophets, the steadfast affirmers
of truth, the martyrs and the righteous. And excellent are those as
companions. (An-Nisa 4:69)
- Allah did not leave it up to chance

- He recommended for you what company to keep
- He is spoon feeding you
Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend. (Al-Furqan 25:28)
Close friends, that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the
righteous (Az-Zukhruf 43:67)
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “A man is on
the religion of his friend, so let each of you observe whom he befriends.”
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/589) No. 2378, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/259) No. 4833,
Say, "What would my Lord care for you if not for your supplication?" For you
[disbelievers] have denied, so your denial is going to be adherent. (Al-Furqan
25:77)
- the prophet used to seek refuge from four things
On the authority of Abu Huraira (RA) the Messenger of Allah (SAW) used to
said: ‫ﺲ َﻻ‬ ٍ ‫ﻦ ﻧَ ْﻔ‬ ْ ‫ﻣ‬ِ ‫ َو‬،‫ﻊ‬ُ ‫ﺸ‬

yusma’" (O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from four things: from knowledge
that is of no benefit, a heart which is not submissive, a soul which has an
insatiable appetite, and a supplication which is not heard). [Musnad Ahmad
(2/340) No. 8469, Sunan Abu Dawud (2/92) No. 1548, Sunan al-Nasa'i
(8/263) No. 5467, Sunan Ibn Majah (5/11) No. 3837]
WHY OUR DUAS ARE NOT ANSWERED
1) Maybe he is eating and drinking haraam and his clothes are haraam
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA) who said: The Messenger of Allah
(SAW) said: …“Then he (SAW) mentioned [the case] of a man who, having
journeyed far, is dishevelled and dusty, and who spreads out his hands to the
sky saying "O Lord! O Lord!," while his food is haram (unlawful), his drink is
haram, his clothing is haram, and he has been nourished with haram, so how
can [his supplication] be answered?”[Sahih Muslim (2/703) No. 1015]
2) Maybe his niyah (intention) is wrong
So invoke Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion, although the disbelievers

dislike it. (Ghafir 40:14)
Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW), say,
“Actions are but by intentions, and each person will have but that which he
intended…” [al-Bukhari (1) and Muslim (1907)]
3) Maybe your Aqeedah is wrong

- Allah disgraced the Islamic Brotherhood in Egypt
- because their aqeedah is wrong
- many times you see people fall from grace
- because they have the wrong aqeedah
What comes to you of good is from Allah, but what comes to you of evil, [O
man], is from yourself. And We have sent you, [O Muhammad], to the people
as a messenger, and sufficient is Allah as Witness. (An-Nisa 4:79)
4) Maybe you asked for something haraam
In a variant of Muslim, “The slave continues to be answered, provided he

does not pray for a wrong action or severance of kin, as long as he does not
become over-impatient.” It was said, “Messenger of Allah, what is over-
impatience?” He said, "He says, ‘I prayed and I prayed and I did not find Him
answering me,’ so he stops short at that and ceases making supplication.”
[Sahih Muslim (4/2096) No. 2735]
5) Maybe you are not of the Muttaqeen

- Allah accepted the sacrifice of Abel but not of Cain
- Cain was not of the muttaqeen
And recite to them the story of Adam's two sons, in truth, when they both
offered a sacrifice [to Allah], and it was accepted from one of them but was
not accepted from the other. Said [the latter], "I will surely kill you." Said
[the former], "Indeed, Allah only accepts from the righteous [who fear Him].
(Al-Ma’idah 5:27)
- your dua is ibadah

- Allah said in the above mentioned ayat He would only accept the dua of
the muttaqeen
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “There may be
a fasting person who gets nothing more from his fast than hunger and thirst,
and there may be a person who prays qiyaam and all he gets from his qiyaam
is a sleepless night.” [Musnad Ahmad (2/373) No. 8843, Sunan Ibn Majah
(2/591) No. 1690, Sunan al-Darime (2/390) No. 2720, Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah
(3/242) No. 1997]
6) You have no sabr (patience) when making dua you are too hasty
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “Each of you
will be answered as long as he does not become over-impatient, saying, ‘I
called on my Lord and He did not answer me.’” [al-Bukhari (6340) and
Muslim (2735)]
7) Maybe you are unkind to others
O you who have believed, if you support Allah, He will support you and plant
firmly your feet. (Muhammad 47:7)
- you want Allah to be kind to you, but you do not want to be kind to others?
On the authority of 'Abdullah bin 'Umar the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said,
"A Muslim is a brother of another Muslim, so he should not oppress him, nor
should he hand him over to an oppressor. Whoever fulfilled the needs of his
brother, Allah will fulfil his needs; whoever brought his (Muslim) brother out
of a discomfort, Allah will bring him out of the discomforts of the Day of
Resurrection, and whoever screened a Muslim, Allah will screen him on the
Day of Resurrection." [al-Bukhari (2442) and Muslim (2580)]
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA), that the Prophet (SAW) said:
Whoever removes a worldly grief from a believer, Allah will remove from him
one of the griefs of the Day of Resurrection. And whoever alleviates the need
of a needy person, Allah will alleviate his needs in this world and the
Hereafter. Whoever shields [or hides the misdeeds of] a Muslim, Allah will
shield him in this world and the Hereafter. And Allah will aid His slave so long
as he aids his brother. And whoever follows a path to seek knowledge
therein, Allah will make easy for him a path to Paradise. No people gather
together in one of the Houses of Allah, reciting the Book of Allah and
studying it among themselves, except that sakeenah (tranquility) descends
upon them, and mercy envelops them, and the angels surround them, and
Allah mentions them amongst those who are with Him. And whoever is
slowed down by his actions, will not be hastened forward by his lineage.
[Sahih Muslim (4/2074) No. 2699, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/195) No. 2945, Sunan
Ibn Majah (1/152) No. 225, Musnad Ahmad (2/252) No. 7421]
8) Maybe you were not hopeful when you made the dua
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA), who said that the Prophet (SAW)
said: "Allah the Almighty said: 'I am as My servant thinks I am..." [al-Bukhari
(7405) also by Muslim (2675), at-Tirmidhi (2388) and Ibn Majah (3822)]
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “None of you
should say, ‘O Allah, forgive me if You will. O Allah, have mercy on me if You
will.’ He should be firm in his asking. No one can force Him.” [al-Bukhari
(6339) and Muslim (2679)]
In a variant of Muslim, “He should be firm and should have great desire.
Nothing is too great for Allah Almighty to give him.” [Sahih Muslim (4/2063)
No. 2679]
If you think Allah will answer your dua, He will answer it

- if you think He will not answer it, He will not
- you were pessimistic when you made your dua
O my sons, go and find out about Joseph and his brother and despair not of
relief from Allah. Indeed, no one despairs of relief from Allah except the
disbelieving people." (Yusuf 12:87)
- your Eman is wishy-washy

- you had no hope in your dua
- your tawwakul is lukewarm
9) You have doubts about your deen

- you doubt your faith
- you are not sure the Quran is the speech of Allah
- you are not sure about Judgement Day
In their hearts is disease, so Allah has increased their disease; and for them
is a painful punishment because they [habitually] used to lie. (Al-Baqarah
2:10)
10) You did not enjoin the right and forbid the wrong
And fear a trial which will not strike those who have wronged among you
exclusively, and know that Allah is severe in penalty. (Al-Anfal 8:25)
On the authority of Abu Umar who said: Allah sent two angels to destroy a
township with a natural disaster, but when they got there they found a man
praying in the mosque. They went back to Allah and said: 'O Allah we found a
man praying in the mosque.' Allah said to the two angels: 'Go back and
destroy the township with that man as well because not once did he ever
frown when he saw the people indulging in haram.' [Ibnul Qayyim, al-
Jawaab al-Kaafi (Vol. 1, pg. 46)]
- you kept Islam to yourself

- you did not tell your neighbour about Islam
- you did not tell anyone about Islam
- if you pray for a volcanic eruption to subside and it doesn't
- this is the reason your town got destroyed

SATAN HAS 31 WEBS TO TRAP US
i. we need to recognize our enemy

ii. his strategies
iii. and his friends because your enemy's friends, are your enemies
iv. then we need to expose them
Did I not ordain for you, O Children of Adam, that you should not worship Shaitan (Satan). Verily,
he is a plain enemy to you. (Ya-Sin 36:60)
And thus do We explain the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in
detail, that the way of the Mujrimûn (criminals, polytheists, sinners), may become manifest. (Al-
An'am 6:55)
We need to study their psyche, modus operandi, and strategies
1. SATAN HAS MADE UP HIS OWN RELIGION [Relativism]

-this is called "Relativism"
-he believes the truth is relative; meaning truth for you
-is not necessarily truth for me
-so if a Muslim woman covers her hair and wears abaya
-but a Christian woman goes topless
-the Christian woman thinks what she is doing as "moral"
-Shaitan doesn't want a set standard for the truth
-she wants us to lose our furqan (ability to judge truth from falsehood)
-we need to have taqwah if we want furqan
O you who believe! If you obey and fear Allah, He will grant you Furqan a criterion [(to judge
between right and wrong), or (Makhraj, i.e. making a way for you to get out from every difficulty)],
and will expiate for you your sins, and forgive you, and Allah is the Owner of the Great Bounty.
(Al-Anfal 8:29)
We must discern the decent from indecent

-he wants us to believe Hindus, Buddhists, Christians, and Muslims
-all have the true faith
-that none have the 1 true faith
Shaikh in Jamaica on television

-he had a debate and made everyone laugh at the kaafir Christian
-interfaith dialogues are not something Shaikh does but he will debate
-Jamaican media love to watch Muslims and Christians debate that "Jesus is god"
-because the Christian lies on Allah
And who does more wrong than the one who invents a lie against Allah, while he is being invited
to Islam? And Allah guides not the people who are Zalimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers and
disbelievers) folk. (As-Saff 61:7)
Judaism will chose a route to heaven,

-Christians have their own route to heaven
-Ibliss says these routes are all right
-Christianity and Judaism come from the Abrahamic faith,
-so we search for "common ground"
INTERFAITH DIALOGUES are becoming popular

-the Barelvis had a conference recently and said the Hindus, Sikhs
-are our brothers
-but the mujahideen are "terrorists"
-Islam and Christianity and Judaism - they were put on one even keel
-but we can't expect more from a Barelvis except shirk
So, the first web of Satan is to take away our furqan w/ his own religion,
Relativism
2. INTEGRATIONISM
-when Shaikh was in the UK, he heard that everyone
-who comes to the UK integrate into society
-except for the Muslims
-but the shaitan wants you to go to the pub and drink alcohol w/ you
-he wants you to become a part of kaafir culture
-he wants your son to be gay and your daughter to commit zina
-he doesn't want you to have the moral high-ground
-if you don't become like him, you'll be able to point a finger
-down @ him (he doesn't want that)
-he begs you to integrate into their society
In France, they have a citizenship test where you listen to lectures

-and take a test to agree w/ their teaching
-one thing they teach is gay and lesbianism are NORMAL
-you must write "to be gay is normal" and they reject you as a citizen
-they think we reject their European values
-(homs-xuality and zina, alcoholism)
And the answer of his people was only that they said: "Drive them out of your town; these are
indeed men who want to be pure (from sins)!" (Al-A'raf 7:82)
The kuffaar have the same mentality as the People of Prophet Lut
-these kuffaar are jealous of our taqwa (piety)
-they say we've failed their citizen's test so they deny your VISA
Countries that ban homosexuality risk losing aid, warns David Cameron:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2011/oct/30/ban-homosexuality-lose-aid-cameron
-David Cameron (PM in UK 2011) said those

-who don't accept homos-xuality gracefully
-will not be entitled to receive money
-1,000,000 people marched against the Iraq War in UK
-but Tony Blair took the UK to war there anyway
-he did that because the white man (gora) is a dictator
-he has a "god" complex
There are 3 types of complex:

-inferiority
-superiority
-god (thinking you are god)
When you have a coin, but on both sides of the coin are faces
-both are white faces (gora)
-so don't expect any change
-he doesn’t' want your daughter to wear niqaab, hijab, abaya
-they want her walking around in a mini-skirt
-so men can see the design of her body
-covering Muslimahs show they are refusing to integrate
'Burka martyr' faces two years in French jail after wearing veil:
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/884784-burka-martyr-faces-two-years-in-french-jail-after-wearing-veil
-she veiled herself and refusing to integrate may cost her 2 years in jail
-the white kaafir is evil personified
-(white and black niqabis though walk around Jamaica w/o any harassment)
-they use their media to say bad things about Muslims
-and begin Islamaphobia
-they try ethnic cleansing against us because we refuse to integrate
-the gora doesn't tolerate righteousness
-when there is a disaster, they assume it's the Muslims who did it
-such as bombing in Oklahoma, US (but done by 7th Day Adventist)
-and the one who shot people in Holland (it was a gora)
-the media never says we were too quick to point the finger at you
-because they have the disease of pride in their heart
These kuffaar are swine eating/wine drinking uncircumcised devils
3. RACISM
-the Shaitan was the 1st racist
-he refused to bow down to Adam because he thought he was better (made from fire)
-but Adam was made from clay
Adolph Hitler's niece had blue eyes and brown hair

-and he wanted her all for himself
-she committed suicide
who has At-Taqwa [i.e. one of the Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2). Verily, Allah is All-Knowing, All-
Aware. (Al-Hujurat 49:13)
Racism is when you won't marry someone

-because of their color/culture
-but we have preferences, such as Arabs are not attracted to Asians
-this is not racism; this is personal prejudice
-Shaikh makes sure there is CHEMISTRY when he puts two people together
-don't feel guilty about whom you're attracted to
-99% of Arabs said they wanted to marry a white sister
-white UK reverts wanted to marry a black brother
-this is a personal preference
O mankind! Lo! We have created you from male and female, and have made you nations and
tribes that ye may know one another. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in
conduct. Lo! Allah is Knower, Aware. (al-Hujraat 49:13)
-don't feel guilty about whom you're attracted to

-marry someone you love Nisa 4:3 you must have attraction or you can easily cheat
And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry (other)
women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly
(with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is
nearer to prevent you from doing injustice. (An-Nisa 4:3)
The 1st Mu’tazilite was Ibliss

-he never feels intellectually convinced of anything
(Allah) said: "What prevented you (O Iblis) that you did not prostrate, when I commanded you?"
Iblis said: "I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You created from clay."
(Al-A'raf 7:12)
Ibliss thought he was better than Adam

-and had a problem / Tawheed Haakimiyyah
-if we do, we obey Allah even if we don't understand the commandment
-the Sahabahs Heard and Obeyed
-Ibliss argued w/ Allah - why did you prefer Adam over me?
-Adam was lying in state (no ruh (soul) yet)
-Ibliss spat and kicked him and said if you are greater than me,
-I will NEVER OBEY YOU
-and if I am greater than you, I will surely destroy you
ENVY - RELATIVISM - RATIONALISM - JEALOUSY – RACISM = these are all from the Shaitan
If you listen to Satan and become a rationalist, you're finished

-"religion isn't logic"
Our deen is not by logic: "'Ali observed, "If the religion was based on opinion, the bottom of the
sock would take preference in being wiped to the top of the sock." (Related by Abu Dawud and ad-
Daraqutni with a hassan or sahih chain.)"
4. RATIONALISM
The son of Prophet Nuh (he told his father,

-I don't need to ride in the boat
-because that mountain is tall enough to save me from Allah's wrath)
-he didn't go in the boat because he used his aql
-even he was told there is no mountain tall enough to save you
-he didn't trust in his father's revelation
Shaikh in University
-when Shaikh was taught there are rivers of wine in Paradise,
-his aql told him how can this be?
-he assumed the wine in Paradise was the same as the wine in the dunya
-it makes you do stupid things on earth but in Paradise,
-it will not make you drunk
Shaikh spoke w/ a man who earned 50,000 pounds per year
-this man signs contracts by drinking wine
-(because people are in a happy mood, so the do not hesitate to sign)
-so wine in the dunya helps you be deceitful
When a man drinks and then kills in the UK, he confesses to murder
-so Scotland Yard goes to pubs when they investigate murders
The description of the Paradise which the Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2): have been promised! -
Underneath it rivers flow, its provision is eternal and so is its shade, this is the end (final
destination) of the Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2), and the end (final destination) of the disbelievers
is Fire. (See Verse 47:15) (Ra'd 13:35)
5. COURTEOUS
-he uses courtesy to hide treachery
-some speech is magic
Then Shaitan (Satan) whispered to him, saying : "O Adam! Shall I lead you to the Tree of Eternity
and to a kingdom that will never waste away?" (Ta-Ha 20:120)
On that Allah's Apostle said. ‘Some eloquent speech is as effective as magic.' (Sahih Al-Bukhari,
Volume 7, Book 71, Number 662)

Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Sad ibn Zurara that he
had heard that Hafsa, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, killed one
of her slave-girls who had used sorcery against her. She was a mudabbara. Hafsa gave the order,
and she was killed. [Malik Muwatta, Book 43, Number 43.19.14]

6. HE LIKES TO SAY "WALLAHI" AND THEN LIE

-when Adam was hesitating to eat from the haraam tree
-Satan told him he would live forever if he ate it (he lied)
They have made their oaths a screen (for their hypocrisy). Thus they hinder (men) from the Path of
Allah. Verily, evil is what they used to do. (Al-Munafiqun 63:2)
~~EVERY KAAFIR IS A HYPOCRITE AND EVERY HYPOCRITE IS A KAAFIR~~
They make their faith a pretext so that they may turn (men) from the way of Allah. Verily evil is that
which they are wont to do, (63:2)
Every soul tastes death; we all lie but the shaitan said WALLAHI ....
Imran bin Hussein said Allah Apostle (saw) said: “The best of my followers are those living in my
generation (i.e. my contemporaries) and then those who will follow them and then those who will
follow them” (Sahih Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol. 5 pg.2 No.2)
Verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) will die and verily, they (too) will die. (Az-Zumar 39:30)
"WALLAHI" many people hide behind it (63:2)
The Jehovah's Witness is courteous when they knock on your door

-when they invite you to hellfire
-they say there is NO hellfire so they invite you there by dodgy aqeeda
-they don't get angry w/ you when you debate them
-Shaikh debated 2 of them [one black and one white]
-they kept their cool as Shaikh showed them Biblical verses that was lies
7. GENOCIDE
The gora gave Apache Indians small pox virus and went to bed v
-ery good afterward, w/o any guilt
INDIANS AND SMALL POX VIRUS:

http://www.thefurtrapper.com/indian_smallpox.htm
-genocide is an integral part of European culture

-they can't change unless they embrace Islam
-there is genocide in Afghanistan and Iraq
-the gora of Europe is blood thirsty
-this is why there is a siege on Gaza
-in Chechnya ... Tanzania ...
-history repeats itself (there's nothing called the past)
THE PAST / PRESENT

-pagans
-homos-xuality
-cheating w/ the scales
-black magic
-prostitutes used to do prostitution in Makkah
-(they hoisted a flag in their yard so people knew
-you could go to that home for it)
**so there is nothing called the past; you see that

-we're repeating themselves and
**the hearts of the kaafirs are alike
And thus do We explain the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in
detail, that the way of the Mujrimûn (criminals, polytheists, sinners), may become manifest. (Al-
An'am 6:55)
8. DARWINISM
-man is created from monkeys is their theory
-if monkeys were our fathers, why are the DNA totally different?
-we can't give blood to monkeys or them to us
-Christians oppose Darwinism and atheism and
-we're permitted to unite w/ them against atheism
Omar used Christians to fight fire-worshippers
-these were Arab Christians who said I am ARAB first and Christians, next
-in Lebanon Christians unite w/ the ummah against JEWS and SHIITES
Ibliss set up many religions to lead us astray
Verily, I will mislead them, and surely, I will arouse in them false desires; and certainly, I will order
them to slit the ears of cattle, and indeed I will order them to change the nature created by Allah."
And whoever takes Shaitan (Satan) as a Wali (protector or helper) instead of Allah, has surely
suffered a manifest loss. (An-Nisa 4:119)
-he wants us to serve our evil & corrupted desires

-he makes the kaafir believe in Darwinism, racism, tribalism
-we reject Darwinism, as do Christians, and we believe in INTELLIGENT DESIGN
9. ATHEISM
How to check-make a person who believes in Atheism:
-why can't we give blood to monkeys and them give it to us
-their DNA is different from ours
-we have different DNA and fingerprints
PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON'S NICKNAME, 'Slick Willy'

-his DNA was found on the dress of a woman who accused him of having zina w/ her
So we can't come about by AN ACCIDENT ...

-we all have different iris (middle of the eye)
10. AGNOSTIC
-these people say MAYBE there is a God
-you can't be a Muslim agnostic
-because our Shahadah says "La illah illa Allah"
-we must know what La illah illa Allah means
-we must be certain of it
-we need to believe w/ our heart and testify w/ our tongue
-then surrender our life to Quran and Sunnah
-single out Allah for our devotion
-al walaa wal baraa :: love what He loves and hate what He hates
In the heart of the kaafir is alike and they have hearts full of doubts
In their hearts is a disease (of doubt and hypocrisy) and Allah has increased their disease. A
painful torment is theirs because they used to tell lies. (Al-Baqarah 2:10)
Don't go to dodgy chatrooms - it can NOT help you at all
-it puts more doubts in your mind of things you knew were true
-when you stun an animal w/ electricity, they become confused.com
-same thing happens when we go to dodgy rooms
-Shaikh has been there hearing nothing but kufr
-he felt sorry for the young Muslims
-who had no basis for their new faith
Shaikh asked people if a man commits major kufr,

-is he a kaafir and they said NO
-that dodgy aqeeda can lead them to Hellfire
-Authentic Salafeyya is a room on PalTalk where they spread kufr
-beware of this room
And marry not women whom your fathers married, except what has already passed; indeed it was
shameful and most hateful, and an evil way. (An-Nisa 4:22)
-how to checkmate these people ::

-4:22 Ibn Kathir says the man was killed as a kaafir
-because his goods were confiscated
-do not go into the room Authentic Salafeyya , they spread false aqeedah
-their aqeeda is the same as the murji'a (liberal)
-when you have dodgy aqeeda, you have made up your own religion
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Sad ibn Zurara that he
had heard that Hafsa, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, killed one
of her slave-girls who had used sorcery against her. She was a mudabbara. Hafsa gave the order,
and she was killed. [Malik Muwatta, Book 43, Number 43.19.14]
Narrated By Al-Bara' ibn Azib: I met my uncle who was carrying a standard. I asked him: Where
are you going? He said: The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) has sent me to a man who has married his
father's wife. He has ordered me to cut off his head and take his property. [Abu Dawud, Book 33,
Hadith #4442]
-when the girl did black magic, she was killed as a kaafir
-when the man slept w/ his father's wife, he was killed as a kaafir
-we don't need to wait for anyone to legitimize their kufr
There are 2 types of kufr: major and minor

Minor: cheating on your wife w/ her best friend
-as is gambling and alcohol
-so we can't make takfir on these people until they make their minor kufr halal
-if you commit major kufr, you can be killed as a kaafir without interrogation
Major: black magic and spying for the kaafir,

-sleeping w/ your father's wife
-when you throw the Quran in the dustbin, this is MAJOR kufr
-takfir will be made on you and will be killed
-of the man who drank alcohol and he was flogged someone said,
-'may the curse of Allah be on you'
-the Rasool said not to curse him,
-because wallahi he loves Allah and His Rasool
Narrated By 'Umar bin Al-Khattab: During the lifetime of the Prophet there was a man called
'Abdullah whose nickname was Donkey, and he used to make Allah's Apostle laugh. The Prophet
lashed him because of drinking (alcohol). And one-day he was brought to the Prophet on the
same charge and was lashed. On that, a man among the people said, "O Allah, curse him ! How
frequently he has been brought (to the Prophet on such a charge)!" The Prophet said, "Do not
curse him, for by Allah, I know for he loves Allah and His Apostle." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 81,
Hadith #771]
IF YOU LIVE IN AN ISLAMIC STATE, when you throw the Quran in the dustbin,
-this IS MAJOR kufr, takfir will be made on you and will be killed
People come to Paltalk looking for which room has the most guests
-then they invite them to their own rooms for debate
-we will debate these but in THIS room
11. DRUG WARFARE

-once you're on drugs, you're a human devil
-it's haraam to marry someone addicted to drugs
-these people are low life scum of the earth
-when Sh was in South Africa, a woman's son stole everything to buy drugs
-he even robbed her of many things
-so the woman strangled her son to stop him from his lifestyle
-she was arrested and her attorney went to the court to tell the judge:
THIS WOMAN COULDN'T STAND IT ANYMORE

-he stole from her, whatever she had, even phones
-the judge did not convict the woman because he had sympathy for her
-many parents might want to kill their kids now after THAT verdict
In 1980s, the Bush family flooded the black community w/ drugs

-J Edgar Hoover put many black men on syphilis
-the US invaded Panama and arrested their President Noriega
-and his millions of $$ was all frozen
-people on drugs have no use for themselves or anyone else
-"cold turkey" is the withdrawal syndrome
-they go through when they are stopping the drugs abruptly
12. CHEMICAL (napalm bombs)

13. GERM (spreading the AIDS virus in your country)
14. IDEOLOGICAL (believing in democracy)
15. MILITARY
16. POLITICAL [embargoes from the UN]
17. PROPAGANDA [w/ media]
18. ECONOMIC
19. CULTURAL
-a movie called PRETTY WOMAN is NOT suitable for your daughters to watch it
-it glorifies prostitution, and BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN glorifies homos-xuality
20. SEQUENTIAL PERSUASION

-using halal to get you into haraam
-sequential persuasion : to entice someone to commit haraam by first making them do halal,
-step by step (i.e story of the pious monk who gave a dars
-to a lady but ended up sleeping with her)
THE STORY OF THE PIOUS MONK
Ibn Jareer said that Ibn Mas'ood interpreted the above verse saying: "This refers to a woman who
used to shepherd sheep and she had four brothers, and by night she used to go to the cell of a
priest to sleep. Then the priest fornicated with her and she became pregnant. Then, the devil came
to him and whispered to him "kill her and burry her as you are a man to whom people would listen
and would believe [in what you say]". So, the priest killed her and buried her. Then, the devil came
to her brothers in a dream and whispered: "The priest fornicated with your sister and when she
became pregnant, he killed her and buried her in such and such a place." In the morning, one of
the brothers said: "I swear by Allaah, I saw a dream last night, but I don't know whether or not I
should tell it to you." His brothers said: "Tell us the story." Then, he related the story to them. One
of them said: "I swear by Allaah, I saw the same dream." Another brother said: "I swear by Allaah,
I saw the same dream as well." Thereupon, they said: "There must be something wrong." So, they
went and complained to the king about that priest, and the king's men arrested the priest. Then
the devil came to this priest and told him: "It is me who put you in this mess, and no one else can
get you out of it except me, so prostrate to me once and I will get you out of this mess." Then the
priest prostrated to him. When they arrived to the king, the devil declared to the priest that he is
free from what he did, and then they killed the priest." This is narrated on the authority of Ibn
'Abbaas, Taawoos, Muqaatil Ibn Hayyaan. [Ibn Kathir: Stories from the Qur’an]
This narration is from Ibn Al-Jawzi's "Talbees Iblees"::
Wahb said: "There was a pious worshipper of the tribe of Israel. He was the most pious person of
his time. During his time, there were three brothers who had a sister. She was a virgin. And they
had no sister other than her. They were all about to leave the town to go to war. They did not know
with whom to leave their sister and who they could trust to look after her. They all agreed to leave
her with that pious person. They all trusted him.
They went to him and asked if they could leave her with him. She would be in the building next to
him until they return from the fighting. He refused their request and sought refuge in Allah from
them and their sister. They persisted until he finally acquiesced. He said, "Put her in the house
next to my place of worship." So they put her in that house and they left, leaving her there. She
remained living next to that pious person for some time. He would put food for her in front of his
building of worship. Then he would lock the door and return to his place of worship. He would
then tell her to come out of her house and take the food.
Then Satan approached him softly. He encouraged him to treat her kindly. He told him that it was
not good to make the woman come out of her house during the day as someone may come upon
her. If he took the food directly to her door that would mean a greater reward for him. He
continued for some time to go to her door and place the food at the front of her door without
speaking to her. Then IBlees came again and encouraged him to do good and get more reward. He
said, "If you took her the food and placed it in the house for her, you would get a greater reward."
He continued to encourage him. So he started to take the food into her house. He continued like
that for some time. Then lblees came again and again encouraged him to do good. He said, "If you
talk to her for a while she will be put to ease by your conversation as she is in a state of fear and
she is all alone." He then started talking to her from atop his place of worship. Then lblees came
again. He said, "If you were to come down and talk to her while she sits at her door and talks to
you, that would be even more comforting for her." He continued to encourage him until he came
down and sat at his door and would talk to her. The girl would come out of her building and sit at
her door and they would talk for a while. Then lblees came again and encouraged him to get great
rewards for treating her well. He said, "If you were to go from the door of your place of worship
and sit close to her door, that would be even more comforting for her." He continued exhorting
him until he did so. He continued that act for a while. Then lblees came again. This time said, "If
you enter her house and talk to her, and not make her show her face in public it would be even
better for you." He continued exhorting him until he entered her house and spent the whole day
talking to her. Then when night fell, he returned to his place of worship. Then lblees came to him
after that and continued to make her more appealing to him. Until the worshipper got upon her
and kissed her. And lblees continued to make her look nice in his eyes and desire her until he
finally committed zina with her. She got pregnant and gave birth to a boy. Then lblees came and
told the worshipper, "Do you not realize what the brothers of the girl will do to you when they see
she has given birth to your son? You will not be safe if your matter 'becomes clear, You should go
to the boy and kill it and bury it, that way you can conceal your affair and They will not do
anything to you for what you did to her." Then he said to him, "Do you think she will conceal from
her brothers what you did to her and your killing of her son. Take her, kill her and bury her with
her son." He continued spurring him on until he killed her and threw her in the ditch with her son.
Then he put a large rock over them and leveled it.
Then he returned to his place of worship and worshipped therein. He stayed in that state for as
fong as Allah willed until the brothers came back from the fighting. They came to him and asked
him about their sister. He mourned her loss and started to cry. He said, "She was the best of
women and that is her grave." The Brothers came to the grave and cried over their sister and
asked Allah to have mercy on her. They stayed at her grave for a few days and then went to their
families. When the night overtook them and they went to their beds, Satan came to them in their
sleep in the form of a traveler. He started with the eldest and asked him about their sister. The
brother told him what the pious man had stated and how they were shown her grave. Satan told
him that the pious man had lied. He said, "He did not tell you the truth about your sister. He got
her pregnant and she had his son and then he killed and buried her out of fear of you. Then he
threw them in a ditch he dug behind the door of the house she was staying in, to the right of the
entrance. Go and enter the house in which she stayed and on the right of the entrance you will
find everything I told you about." Then he went to the middle brother and did the same. Then he
went to the youngest brother and did the same. When they woke, they were all surprised at what
they had seen. When they met each other, they all said, "I saw an amazing thing last night," and
they informed each other of what they had seen. The eldest said, "That dream has nothing to it so
just ignore it." The youngest said, "I will not leave it until I go and look at that place." They all went
until they reached the door of the place where there sister stayed. They opened the door and
looked for the place that was described to them in their dreams. They found their sister and her
son buried in a ditch, as they were told. They asked the worshipper about it and he confirmed
what lblees had told them. They then took him and were about to crucify him. When they had him
on the wooden cross, Satan said to him, "You know that I am your companion who tempted you
by the woman until you got her pregnant and you killed her and her son. If you obey me today and
deny Allah, who formed and shaped you, I will rescue you from your predicament." The
worshipper then belied Allah. When he belied Allah, Satan left from being between him and the
others and they were able to crucify him too.
1- This story, and others similar to it, are from the israaeeliyaat or stories which have their source
in the books or tales of the Jews and Christians. We do not say it is true nor do we say it is false,
but it is allowed to narrate them as the Prophet (SAW) said, "Narrate stories about the Tribe of
Israel and there is no harm in that.”
2- Other narrations Burseesah dies in sujjod to shaitan when shaitan promises to save him from
the brothers,This Narration is Quoted in Ibn al-Jawzi's Talbees Iblees, p.39. [Al-Tabari, Al-Qurtubi,
Al-Baghawi, and Ibn Kathir all narrate similar stories under the verse of Surah Al-Hashr]
-he was living in a cave and 3 brothers brought their sister

-to him to watch after her
-he at first refused because he was pious
-but then SHAITAN made her remove her veil
-SHAITAN manipulated every act of the 3 brothers and the monk
-when he killed the girl, she was either pregnant or just gave birth
-so when he murdered her he might have killed 2 of them [mom and child]
-again SHAITAN tricked him and said I can get you out of this
-if you make sujood to me
-and this pious monk ended up a death of a kaafir
-SHAITAN didn't give 1 big LIE to follow but little by little,
-he had the monk do haraam
-he said "give her a dars"
-then he says take away her veil
-and each time shaitan makes him think he has a good idea
-using halal to get us to do something haraam
21. TO CORRUPT THAT WHICH PURE (TAKE AWAY INNOCENCE)

-CHILD PROSTITUTION IS RIFE IN THAILAND, BURMA, PHILIPPINES,
-real men are attracted to mature woman
22. HE INVITES TO ALL TYPES OF PERVERSION
Muhammad did NOT consummate Aisha's marriage until she was 18

-the hadith on this is daeef
-when the hadith was related, Hisham ibn Urwa related it
-when he was senile [old of age]
-but we have proof she was not 9 but rather 18

O you who believe! Follow not the footsteps of Shaitan (Satan). And whosoever follows the
footsteps of Shaitan (Satan), then, verily he commands Al-Fahsha' [i.e. to commit indecency
(illegal sexual intercourse, etc.)], and Al-
Munkar [disbelief and polytheism (i.e. to do evil and wicked deeds; to speak or to do what is
forbidden in Islam, etc.)]. And had it not been for the Grace of Allah and His Mercy on you, not one
of you would ever have been pure from sins. But Allah purifies (guides to Islam) whom He wills,
and Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. (An-Nur 24:21)
....verily he commands Al-Fahsha' [i.e. to commit indecency (illegal sexual intercourse, etc.)], and
Al-Munkar [disbelief and polytheism (i.e. to do evil and wicked deeds; to speak or to do what is
forbidden in Islam, etc.)]. (An-Nur 24:21)
Ibn Umar (RA) narrated: I was presented before Allah’s Messenger (SAW) for the army when I was
fourteen years old. But, he did not enlist me. Then, the next year I was presented to him for the
army being fifteen years and he took me. Nafi’ said: I narrated this hadith to Umar ibn Abdul Aziz
and he said, “The limit between a minor and a major (is this).” Then he wrote (to his officers) that
those who attain the age of fifteen may be given share in spoils of war. [Bukhari 2664, Muslim
1868, Tirmidhi 1717]
Narrated By 'Aisha: That the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he
consummated his marriage when she was nine years old. Hisham said: I have been informed that
'Aisha remained with the Prophet for nine years (i.e. till his death)." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 7, Book
62, Hadith #065]
In many countries, fathers and daughters can have s-x

-(they consider it 2 consenting adults)
-in the US, you can marry a horse
Or do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like cattle; nay, they are
even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worst than cattle). (Al-Furqan 25:44)
US soldiers can now have s-x w/ dogs in the Army
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/senate-approves-bill-legalizes-sodomy-and-bestiality-us-military
Bautil contradicts ..
-the same man who sends a man to jail for drinking is the same one
-who issued permit to open a pub to sell alcohol
-the same judge who sends a man to prison
-for porn allows the clubs to be open w/ porn magazines
~~EVERY KAAFIR IS A HYPOCRITE AND EVERY HYPOCRITE IS A KAAFIR~~

-we can't have cults in a Muslim country
-because only the Islamic aqeeda is allowed there
And say: "Truth (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism or this Qur'ân or Jihâd against polytheists) has come
and Bâtil (falsehood, i.e. Satan or polytheism) has vanished. Surely! Bâtil is ever bound to
vanish." (Al-Isra 17:81)
'Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Muhammad Ibn Habeeb Ibn Abee Habeeb on the authority of his father, on
the authority of his grandfather [who] said: I witnessed Khaalid Ibn 'Abdullah Al-Qasree - and he
addressed them at Waasit - "Oh People, make sacrifice, may Allah accept it from you. Verily I am
sacrificing Al-Ja'd Ibn Dirham, for indeed he claims that Allah did not take Ibrahim as a khaleel
(close friend), and [that] He did not speak to Moosa. Most Perfect is He and exalted is He from
what Al-Ja'd says." Then he descended and slaughtered him. I say: And the Jahmiyya and
Mu’tazila speak with this, and they distort the text of the revelation regarding that, and they claim
that the Lord is purified of that [i.e. having spoken to Moses and taken Ibrahim as a khalil]
Mukhtasar al-Uluww" of adh-Dhahabi, (p.133).
-democracies have a lot of cults

-that Khawarijj was killed because we don't allowed cults in Islamic cults
THE SHAITAN LIKES TO LOOK AT THE NAKEDNESS OF OTHERS ...

-this is why he talked Adam and Eve to become naked
-so he can see their private parts
-they show s-x movies after 9pm so the kids are in bed;
-they sell porn from the top shelf,
-so they justify their sales
"I found her and her people worshipping the sun instead of Allah, and Shaitan (Satan) has made
their deeds fair-seeming to them, and has barred them from (Allah's) Way, so they have no
guidance," (An-Naml 27:24)
23. HE HYPES YOU UP BUT LEAVES WHEN YOU'RE IN TROUBLE
"Verily, I have nothing to do with you. Verily! I see what you see not. Verily! I fear Allah for Allah is
Severe in punishment." (Al-Anfal 8:48)
SYRIA and IRAN will send weapons to Shiites of Iraq

BAHRAIN AND KSA will support the SUNNIs of Iraq
IRAQ IS A CAN OF WORMS .... WHEN THE US PULLS OUT , BUT WAIT AND SEE
THE POWER BROKEN IN THE REGION IS THE ONE WHO CONTROLS THE OIL THERE
24. HE INFILTRATES US W/ RACISM, TRIBALISM, NATIONALISM, REGIONALISM, THE CASTE

SYSTEM
“There are four matters of jaahiliyyah that exist among my ummah and they will not give them up:
boasting about one’s forefathers, casting aspersions upon people’s lineages, seeking rain by the
stars and wailing for the dead.” [Sahîh Muslim (934)]
HE INFILTRATES THE UMMAH OF MUHAMMAD (saws)

-w/ Parvezism, Shiasm, Soofism,
-if you like to buy into hype, you're a prime target for him
-don't be like Russians and Americans who listened to his waswasa
-being led down a path of a quagmire (no exit strategy)
25. HE LIKES TO SEPARATE 2 THINGS THAT CAN NOT BE SEPARATE THEM

-example: Quran and Sunnah
-he separates man from wife and break up families
-the masjid and the mosques painted pink
-lesbians are not killed because their s-x is fake
"Verily, I have nothing to do with you. Verily! I see what you see not. Verily! I fear Allah for Allah is
Severe in punishment." (Al-Anfal 8:48)
He likes to separate 2 things that can not be separate them

-and killing a gay must be in an Islamic State
-we're not permitted to implement SHARIAH in darul harb (such as US, UK,)
You will inevitably follow the paths of those who came before you, handspan by handspan, cubit
by cubit, until even if they entered the hole of a lizard, you will follow them.” We said, “O
Messenger of Allaah, (do you mean) the Jews and Christians?” He said, “Who else?” (Narrated by
al-Bukhaari, al-I’tisaam bi’l-Kitaab wa’l-Sunnah, 6889; Muslim, al-‘Ilm, 6723).
There is a difference of opinion concerning the punishment for the one who commits sodomy. The
following are the opinions that were mentioned by Imam Ash-Shawkani in "Nayl Al-Awtar" , Vol.
7/p122-124.
1) That he is killed with the sword, then burnt. This is narrated from Abu Bakr and 'Ali Ibn Abi
Talib.
2) That a wall should be collapsed upon him. This was the opinion of 'Umar and 'Uthman.
3) That he should be thrown from the highest building in the city, then that should be followed up
with him being pelted with rocks. This was the opinion of Ibn 'Abbas.
4) That he is stoned. This is narrated by Al-Bayhaqi from 'Ali Ibn Abi Talib, Ash-Sha'bi, Az-Zuhri,
Malik, Ahmad, Is'haq, and Ash-Shafi'i.
5) That they are burned. This was narrated by Al-Bayhaqi, that Abu Bakr gathered the Sahabah
and 'Ali mentioned this, and the Sahabah agreed upon it. It was also mentioned by Al-Munthiri that
it was done by Abu Bakr, 'Ali, 'Abdullah Ibn Az-Zubayr, and Hisham Ibn 'Abdil-Malik.
6) That he is stoned, then burnt with fire. This is narrated from the Sahabah agreeing upon it in the
time of Abu Bakr.
7) That the punishment is the same as Zina, in that if he is a virgin, he is whipped, and if he is not,
then he is stoned.
8) That there is no prescribed punishment, rather it is left up to the Imam to perform Ta'zir, and
this was narrated from Abu Hanifah, and one narration from Ash-Shafi'i, and others.
Ash-Shawkani refutes the opinion of the punishment being the same as Zina, as well as the
opinion that there is only Ta'zir, and supports the opinion that he is killed, but does not appear to
specify which way of killing is the strongest.
26. SHAITAN MAKES IMPORTANT UNIMPORTANT and vice versa

27. HE MAKES YOU USE THE MISTAKES OF OTHERS JUSTIFY YOUR EVIL DEEDS
28. HE THREATENS YOU W/ POVERTY
He grants Hikmah to whom He pleases, and he, to whom Hikmah is granted, is indeed granted
abundant good. But none remember (will receive admonition) except men of understanding. (Al-
Baqarah 2:269)
29. HE MAKES YOU LOSE THE BALANCE,

-such as Jews reject Jesus but Christians worship him
-see the spiritualist and the secularist
Shaitan (Satan) threatens you with poverty and orders you to commit Fahsha (evil deeds, illegal
sexual intercourse, sins etc.); whereas Allah promises you Forgiveness from Himself and Bounty,
and Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower. (Al-Baqarah 2:268)
30. PROCRASTINATION
-he makes us leave off till tomorrow what we can do today
31. HE MAKES YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE ABOUT OUR KNOWLEDGE AND OUR CHARACTER
-we're never to feel comfortable enough, even a Shaikh
Stages of Oppression {May 04 2014}
STAGES OF OPPRESSION
MAY 04 2014 / 04 RAJAB 1435 HIJRI
Notes taken By @AT15
Hadith Hujjah @AT3 & Mujjahidah101
Quran Hujjah @Muhajjahidah101
Edited & Formatted By @Abu Hafiza
This topic was first delivered in Durban, South Africa in 2008.
The kufar heard this lecture and concluded that the sheikh did not change in Aqeedah.
Even after being imprisoned.
Allah (SWT) says in His book that the battle between truth and falsehood is ever lasting battle.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Baqarah verse 120
Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon
him) till you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance of Allah (i.e. Islamic
Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance. And if you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him )
were to follow their (Jews and Christians) desires after what you have received of
Knowledge (i.e. the Qur'an), then you would have against Allah neither any Wali (protector
or guardian) nor any helper.
(Al-Baqarah 2:120)
Some Muslim gets influenced by the kufar.
Even though they are, supposed to stick to the Quran and Sunnah.
A kafir will never respect you if you follow them.

Rather they will respect you when you follow your religion and stick to it.
On the authority of Abu Dharr Jundub ibn Junadah, and Abu Abdur-Rahman Muadh bin Jabal
(RA), that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: Have taqwa (fear) of Allah wherever you may be,
and follow up a bad deed with a good deed which will wipe it out, and behave well towards the
people.
[It was related by at-Tirmidhi, who said it was a hasan (good) hadith, and in some copies it is
stated to be a hasan saheeh hadith.
"...And they will never cease fighting you until they turn you back from your religion (Islamic
Monotheism) if they can..."
(Al-Baqarah 2:217)
Imraan ibn Husain (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, ‘A group of people from my
Ummah will continue to fight for the sake of the truth until the last of them fights the Dajjal (anti-
Christ)
[Sunan Abu Dawud (3/4) No. 2484, Musnad Ahmad (4/437) No. 19934, Mustadrak al-Haakim (2/81)
No. 2392]
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Kafirun verse 6
"To you be your religion, and to me my religion (Islamic Monotheism)."
(Al-Kafirun 109:6)
The last verse of Surah al-Kafiroon is abrogated.
This was revealed to the Muslim in Makka when they had no army.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah AT Tawbah verse 5
Then when the Sacred Months (the Ist, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islamic calendar) have
passed, then kill the Mushrikun (see V.2:105) wherever you find them, and capture them and
besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-
Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakat, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving,
Most Merciful.
(At-Tawbah 9:5)
Surah 9 verse 5 abrogated all verses of sabr including the last verse of Surah al-Kafiroon.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Anfal verse 39
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others
besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world]...
(Al-Anfal 8:39)
Some scholars claim that to "kill the Mushrikun" was only applicable to the Arabian Peninsula.
This is not the correct tafsir.
If that were the case, a lot of land would not have fallen to the Muslims.
So, why did Allah abrogate Surah 109 verse 6?
Because kafirs are dictators.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Araf verse 82
And the answer of his people was only that they said: "Drive them out of your town, these are
indeed men who want to be pure (from sins)!"
(Al-A'raf 7:82)
The above ayah is hujjah to show that kafirs are dictators.
If you go to Europe and claim being a homosexual is wrong, they will kick you out of their land.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah At Tawbah verse 29
Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which
has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion
of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the
Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
(At-Tawbah 9:29)
The law of nature says you must resist to exist.
Every kafir is a hypocrite and every hypocrite is a kafir.
On the authority of Thawban the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “All the people of the world will
soon summon one another to attack you as people gather around a table when invited to part take
of its meal” Someone asked, ‘will that be because of our small numbers at that time?’ He (the
Prophet) replied: “No, you will be numerous at that time but you will be scum and rubbish like that
carried down by a torrent, and Allah will take fear from the breast of your enemies and cast
“wahn” into your hearts”. Someone asked ‘What is “wahn” O Messenger of Allah?’ He replied
“Love for the world and dislike of death.”
[Sunan Abu Dawud (4/111) No. 4297, Musnad Ahmad (2/359) No. 8698]
The Jews call Jesus (AS) a bastard child yet the Christian ally with them.
Because every kafir is a hypocrite.
And those who disbelieve are allies to one another, (and) if you (Muslims of the whole world
collectively) do not do so (i.e. become allies, as one united block with one Khalifah - chief Muslim
ruler for the whole Muslim world to make victorious Allah's Religion of Islamic Monotheism), there
will be Fitnah (wars, battles, polytheism, etc.) and oppression on earth, and a great mischief and
corruption (appearance of polytheism).
(Al-Anfal 8:73)
THE FIVE STAGES OF OPPRESSION
FIRST STAGE: To ignore you and consider you irrelevant.
They will say you're young and you will run out of steam.
The kufar said the prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would run out of words.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Luqman verse 27

And if all the trees on the earth were pens and the sea (were ink wherewith to write), with seven
seas behind it to add to its (supply), yet the Words of Allah would not be exhausted. Verily, Allah
is All Mighty, All Wise.
(Luqman 31:27)
SECOND STAGE: To ask you to compromise.
The kufar claim that every man has a price.
Rather every munafiq has a price.
Why did they kill Anwar al-Awlaki (RH)?
Why didn't they buy him out as they claim every man has his price?
The kufar offered money, fame, and women to the prophet (‫)ﷺ‬.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Qalam verse 9
They wish that you should compromise (in religion out of courtesy) with them, so they (too) would
compromise with you.
(Al-Qalam 68:9)
Abu Talib said to Muhammad (‫“ )ﷺ‬O my brother’s son if you didn’t stop I am afraid that they will
hurt you” the Holy Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬emotionally replied “O uncle by Allah if they put the sun in my right
hand the moon in my left hand on condition that I abandon this course, until Allah has made me
victorious, or I perish therein, I would not abandon it"
The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬got up, and as he turned away, his uncle called him and said, "Come back, My
nephew," and when he came back, he said, "Go and preach what you please, for by Allah I will
never forsake you.
Ar Raheeq Al MaKhtum (The Sealed Nectar) Page 105} [Ibn Hisham 1/265]
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Baiyinah verse 6
Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'an and Prophet Muhammad (Peace
be upon him)) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikun
will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.
(Al-Baiyinah 98:6)
The kafir considers some surahs politically incorrect such as Surah Tawbah, Surah Anfal, Surah
Bayyinah, Surah Muhammad, etc.
They even proposed to the prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬that one year we will worship Allah and one year you will worship
Laat and Uzza.
That is when Allah (SWT) revealed Surah al-Kafiroon.
Say (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)to these Mushrikun and Kafirun) : "O Al-Kafirun
(disbelievers in Allah, in His Oneness, in His Angels, in His Books, in His Messengers, in the Day
of Resurrection, and in Al-Qadar, etc.)! "I worship not that which you worship,
"Nor will you worship that which I worship. "And I shall not worship that which you are
worshipping. "Nor will you worship that which I worship. "To you be your religion, and to me my
religion (Islamic Monotheism)."
(Al-Kafirun 109:1-6)
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Qalam Verse 9
They wish that you should compromise (in religion out of courtesy) with them, so they (too) would
compromise with you.
(Al-Qalam 68:9)
In LONDON, they blast the music loud, yet no one complains.
However, if you do the adhan out loud, they will complain because the shaytaan hates the adhan.
THIRD STAGE: Assassinate your character.
In the 1950s and 1960s, J. Edgar Hoover would label every threat as a homosexual.
He even said Martin Luther King was a womanizer.
Nowadays, they are more obsessed with pornography.
So they claim Osama bin Laden (RH) had porn.

And they said the same about Anwar al-Awlaki (RH).
Because they do their best to destroy the legacy of the Muslims.
The kafir of Quraish became frustrated when the prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬refused to sell out.
So they started their propaganda warfare.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Humuzah:
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter. Who has gathered wealth and counted it, He thinks that his
wealth will make him last forever! Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire. And what
will make you know what the crushing Fire is? The fire of Allah, kindled, Which leaps up over the
hearts, Verily, it shall be closed in on them, In pillars stretched forth, (i.e. they will be punished in
the Fire with pillars, etc.).
(Al-Humuzah 104:1-9)
Walid ibn Mughira held a grudge against Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬because Allah (SWT) chooses him as His
messenger.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Muddaththir verse 18 to 26
Verily, he thought and plotted; So let him be cursed! How he plotted! And once more let him be
cursed, how he plotted! Then he thought; Then he frowned and he looked in a bad tempered way;
Then he turned back and was proud; Then he said: "This is nothing but magic from that of old;
"This is nothing but the word of a human being!" I will cast him into Hell-fire
(Al-Muddaththir 74:18-26)
Walid ibn Mughira was jealous of Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬because of his prophet hood.
So they labelled Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬as a poet but that didn't work.
Yazid ibn Yabnus said, "We went to 'A'isha and said, 'Umm al-Mu'minin, what was the character of
the Messenger of Allah (SAW), like?' She replied, 'His character was the Qur'an. Can you recite the
sura entitled "The Believers"?' She said, 'Recite: "It is the believers who are successful: those
who are humble in their prayer; those who turn away from worthless talk; those who actively pay
zakat; those who guard their private parts." (23:1-5)' She said, 'That was the character of the
Messenger of Allah (SAW).'"
[Al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Bukhari, No. 308]
Because poet collect money from their audience.
Yet Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬never collected money for the Quran.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah As Saff verse 8
They intend to put out the Light of Allah (i.e. the religion of Islam, this Qur'an, and Prophet
Muhammad SAW) with their mouths. But Allah will complete His Light even though the
disbelievers hate (it).
(As-Saff 61:8)
FOURTH STAGE: Disgrace you.
Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Ghraib_torture_and_prisoner_abuse
When character assassination doesn't work, the kufar will try to disgrace you.
As an example, the Abu Ghraib scandal where the American abused Muslims prisoners.
Abu Hurayrah narrated: The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬said: “Islam began as something strange and
will revert to being strange as it began, so give glad tidings to the strangers.”
Another way the kafir disgrace the Muslims is by sending them to Guantanamo Bay.
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allah) on the
people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you recite the Scripture [the Taurat
(Torah)]! Have you then no sense?
(Al-Baqarah 2:44)
Even Fidel Castro of Cuba was appalled by how the Americans treat the Muslim prisoners
in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib.
The reason for the disgrace is because they want you to apostate.
even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worst than cattle).
(Al-Furqan 25:44)
They want the Muslims to suffer inferiority complex.
Then Abu Sufyan asked thrice, "Is Muhammad present amongst these people?" The Prophet
ordered his companions not to answer him. Then he asked thrice, "Is the son of Abu Quhafa
present amongst these people?" He asked again thrice, "Is the son of Al-Khattab present amongst
these people?" He then returned to his companions and said, "As for these (men), they have been
killed." 'Umar could not control himself and said (to Abu Sufyan), "You told a lie, by Allah! O
enemy of Allah! All those you have mentioned are alive, and the thing which will make you
unhappy is still there." Abu Sufyan said, "Our victory today is a counterbalance to yours in the
battle of Badr, and in war (the victory) is always undecided and is shared in turns by the
belligerents, and you will find some of your (killed) men mutilated, but I did not urge my men to do
so, yet I do not feel sorry for their deed" After that he started reciting cheerfully,
At the battle of Uhud, the prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬insisted that the sahaba answer every claim of Abu Sufyan.
"O Hubal, be high! (1) On that the Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you answer him
back?" They said, "O Allah's Apostle What shall we say?" He said, "Say, Allah is Higher and more
Sublime." (Then) Abu Sufyan said, "We have the (idol) Al Uzza, and you have no Uzza." The
Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you answer him back?" They asked, "O Allah's
Apostle! What shall we say?" He said, "Says Allah is our Helper and you have no helper."
(Bukhari, Vol 4, Book 52, Hadith #276)
The kafir use cartoon to disgrace Muhammed (‫)ﷺ‬.
You have to be a mad man to do such thing.
Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬was the messenger of Allah (SWT), if you are insulting Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬than you're
insulting Allah Himself.
A white man from Holland who insulted Muhammed (‫ )ﷺ‬accepted Islam and went to Medina to apologize
to Muhammed (‫)ﷺ‬.
They use movies to insult Allah's deen.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Luqman verse 6
And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing, etc.) to mislead (men) from the
Path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it (the Path of Allah, the Verses of the Qur'an) by way
of mockery. For such there will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-fire).
(Luqman 31:6)
FIFTH STAGE: They wage economic warfare using sanction against you.
The prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬and the sahaba suffered economic warfare for three years.
Even Khadijah (RAA) died of this embargo.
So when you don't please the kafir, they consider you as a rogue state and destroy your currency.
Shaitaan (Satan) threatens you with poverty and orders you to commit Fahsha (evil deeds, illegal
and Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower.
(Al-Baqarah 2:268)
The above ayah tells you that poverty is a lethal weapon of the Shaitaan.
Anas ibn Malik reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “A time will come on the people when
the patient among them on his religion will be like one who holds live coal (in his hand).
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/526) No. 2260]
Anas Ibn Malik narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Poverty, in all probability, leads to
unbelief (kufr)”
[Al-Bayhaqi narrated in 'Shu’ab al-Eemaan' (9/12) No. 6188 and Abu Na'eem narrated in 'Hileeyat
al-Awwleeyah' (3/109)]
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Baqarah 118

Their hearts are alike... (Al-Baqarah 2:118)
The hearts of the kafirs are alike hence, history repeats itself.
All the crime that has been committed yesterday is being committed today.
In the time of Nuh (AS), they worshipped idols.
In the time of Hud (AS), they bragged about their infrastructures.
In the time of Lut (AS), they were proud of being homosexual and made is halal.
In the time of Musa (AS), they used magic and illusion to trick people into disbelief.
In the time of Shuaib (AS), they cheat in business.
Nowadays, the kufar are the worse than before because they commit all these evil deeds and more.
FINAL STAGE: Wage military warfare against you.
So when the other stages fail, they will try to kill you.
They used propaganda against Afghanistan and it didn't work so they decided to bomb it.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Imran verse 54
And they (disbelievers) plotted, and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the planners.
(Al Imran 3:54) Muhsin Khan
And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the best of planners.
(Al Imran 3:54 Sahih International)
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah AL Baqarah verse 216
Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it
may be that you dislike a thing, which is good for you and that you like a thing, which is bad for
you. Allah knows but you do not know.
(Al-Baqarah 2:216)
O Prophet, fight against the disbelievers and the hypocrites and be harsh upon them. And their
refuge is Hell, and wretched is the destination.
(At-Tawbah 9:73) Sahih international
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Ma'idah verse 54
O you who believe! Whoever from among you turns back from his religion (Islam), Allah will bring
a people whom He will love and they will love Him; humble towards the believers, stern towards
the disbelievers, fighting in the Way of Allah, and never afraid of the blame of the blamers. That is
the Grace of Allah, which He bestows on whom He wills. And Allah is All Sufficient for His
creatures' needs, All Knower.
(Al-Ma'idah 5:54)
Today, the kufar are stuck in Afghanistan.
It is the grave yard of all super powers.
Hence, you plotted, Allah (SWT) planned, and Allah (SWT) is the best of planners.
The Soviet failed in Afghanistan and it was their downfall.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Imran Verse 54
And they (disbelievers) plotted, and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the planners.
(Al Imran 3:54)

Tawassul
TAWASSUL

Bismillah
What is tawassul?
- It means to seek means to draw near to Allah
O you who believe! Do your duty to Allah and fear Him. Seek the means of
approach to Him, and strive hard in His Cause as much as you can. So that you
may be successful. (Al-Ma'idah 5:35)
There are two types of tawassul:
1. HALAL
2. HARAAM
HALAL TYPES OF TAWASSUL
1. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH ACTS OF PIETY
Allah said in a hadith qudsi:
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA) who said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW)
said, "Verily Allah ta’ala has said: ‘Whosoever shows enmity to a wali (friend) of
Mine, then I have declared war against him. And My servant does not draw near to
Me with anything more loved to Me than the religious duties I have obligated
upon him. And My servant continues to draw near to me with nafil
(supererogatory) deeds until I Love him. When I Love him, I am his hearing with
which he hears, and his sight with which he sees, and his hand with which he
strikes, and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I
would surely give it to him; and were he to seek refuge with Me, I would surely
grant him refuge.’" [It was related by al-Bukhari]
2. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH HIS 99 NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES
Allah said in Surah A'raf:
And (all) the Most Beautiful Names belong to Allah, so call on Him by them, and
leave the company of those who belie or deny (or utter impious speech against)
His Names. They will be requited for what they used to do.(Al-A'raf 7:180)
3. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH PROPER TAWHEED

- To be upon proper tawheed is the means to draw near to Allah
- Abu Haneefa said tawheed is fiqh al akbar
- Without proper tawheed you won’t be counted as the muttaqeen
- Allah will only accept from the muttaqeen
And (O Muhammad SAW) recite to them (the Jews) the story of the two sons of
Adam [Habil (Abel) and Qabil (Cain)] in truth; when each offered a sacrifice (to
Allah), it was accepted from the one but not from the other. The latter said to the
former: "I will surely kill you." The former said: "Verily, Allah accepts only from
those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2)." (Al-Ma'idah 5:27)
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: When the Prophet sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to him,
"You are going to a nation from the people of the Scripture, so let the first thing to
which you will invite them, be the Tauhid of Allah. If they learn that, tell them that
Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be offered in one day and one night.
And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them Zakat of their
properties and it is to be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor.
And if they agree to that, then take from them Zakat but avoid the best property of
the people." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 9, Book 93, Hadith #469]
4. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH SINCERITY

- You cannot draw near to Allah with hypocrisy
- You can’t do things with ulterior motives
- E.g. Hamas are democrats so it is difficult for them to win
- Allah praised prophet Yusuf (AS) as among the mukhlaseen
And indeed she did desire him and he would have inclined to her desire, had he
not seen the evidence of his Lord. Thus it was, that We might turn away from him
evil and illegal sexual intercourse. Surely, he was one of Our chosen, guided
slaves. (Yusuf 12:24)
- He was too sincere for the woman to seduce.
5. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH SINCERE TAWBAH

- An example of this is the man who killed 100 people
Truly, Allah loves those who turn unto Him in repentance and loves those who
purify themselves (by taking a bath and cleaning and washing thoroughly their
private parts, bodies, for their prayers, etc.). (Al-Baqarah 2:222)
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported Allah's Messenger (SAW) as saying: There was a
person before you who had killed ninety-nine persons and then made an inquiry
about the learned persons of the world (who could show him the way to
salvation). He was directed to a monk.
He came to him and told him that he had killed ninety-nine persons and asked
him whether there was any scope for his repentance to be accepted. He said: No.
He killed him also and thus completed one hundred.
He then asked about the learned persons of the earth and he was directed to a
scholar, and he told him that he had killed one hundred persons and asked him
whether there was any scope for his repentance to be accepted. He said: Yes;
what stands between you and the repentance?
You better go to such and such land; there are people devoted to prayer and
worship and you also worship along with them and do not come to the land of
yours since it was an evil land (for you). So he went away and he had hardly
covered half the distance when death came to him and there was a dispute
between the angels of mercy and the angels of punishment.
The angels of mercy said: This man has come as a penitent and remorseful to
Allah and the angels of punishment said: He has done no good at all. Then there
came another angel in the form of a human being in order to decide between
them. He said: You measure the land to which he has drawn near.
They measured it and found him nearer to the land where he intended to go (the
land of piety), and so the angels of mercy took possession of it. Qatada said that
Hasan told him that it was said to them that as death approached him, he crawled
upon his chest (and managed) to slip in the land of mercy. [Sahih Muslim, Book
37, Hadith #6662] Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger having said: “By Him
in Whose Hand is my life, if you were not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you
out of existence and He would replace (you by) those people who would commit
sin and seek forgiveness from Allah, and He would have pardoned them.” [Sahih
Muslim (4/2106) No. 2749]
- Allah rewards you for your intention
- When prophet Yunus (AS) was in the belly of the whale he did tawassul like Allah
mentioned in the following ayah:
And (remember) Dhan-Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and imagined that
We shall not punish him (i.e. the calamites which had befallen him)! But he cried
through the darkness (saying) : La ilaha illa Anta [none has the right to be
worshipped but You (O Allah)], Glorified (and Exalted) are You [above all that
(evil) they associate with You]. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers." (Al-Anbiya
21:87)
6. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH SADAQAH
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA) who said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW)
said, "Every joint of a person must perform a charity each day that the sun rises:
to judge justly between two people is a charity. To help a man with his mount,
lifting him onto it or hoisting up his belongings onto it, is a charity. And the good
word is a charity. And every step that you take towards the prayer is a charity,
and removing a harmful object from the road is a charity." [It was related by al-
Bukhari and Muslim]
7. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH FASTING
O you who believe! Observing As-Saum (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it
was prescribed for those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqun (the
pious - see V.2:2). (Al-Baqarah 2:183)
8. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH HIJRA
- This is from the land of kufr to the land of tawqa
Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging
themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was
obligatory for them), they (angels) say (to them) : "In what (condition) were you?"
They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on earth." They (angels) say: "Was not
the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?" Such men will
find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination! (An-Nisa 4:97)
Shaykh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said, “The state of a place reflects the state of
a person. It is possible to be sometimes a Muslim and at other times a
disbeliever; sometimes sincere and at other times hypocritical; sometimes good
and pious and at other times rotten and corrupt. Thus, a person becomes like the
place of his abode. The migration of a person from a land of disbelief and
profanity to one of faith and probity is an expression of repentance and of his
turning away from disobedience and perversion to belief and obedience. This is
so until the Day of Resurrection.” [Majmu’al-Fatawa, (18/284)]
- One of the ways to get closer to Allah is Hijra.

- Many muslim girls in the UK, US, etc. have become harlots, because of the land where
they live
- Many Muslim men become homosexuals because of the land where they live
- Ibn Taymiyyah did not mince his words in the above statement.
- You have become such low life scum on the earth, you prefer not to have a caliph.
- You prefer to live with the kuffar
- So when the caliphate was established, they were the first to reject it
- They are classically conditioned to live under humiliation.
- The white man is a control freak, why do you want to live among him?
- You the people who are living in the UK, if I ask you to tell me a good quality of the
white or black man, what would you tell me?
- You could not find one
9. THE OTHER WAY TO DO TAWASSUL IS TO JOIN THE JIHAD FISABILILLAH
Verily, Allah has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for
the price that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allah's Cause, so they kill
(others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him in the
Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his
covenant than Allah? Then rejoice in the bargain which you have concluded. That
is the supreme success. (At-Tawbah 9:111)
On the authority of Muadh bin Jabal (RA) who said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah,
tell me of an act which will take me into Paradise and will keep me away from the
Hellfire." He (SAW) said, "Shall I not inform you of the head of the matter, its pillar
and its peak?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He (SAW) said, "The head of
the matter is Islam, its pillar is the prayer and its peak is jihad. [Sunan Tirmidhi
(5/11)No. 2616, Sunan Ibn Majah (5/116) No. 3973, Musnad Ahmad (5/231) No.
22069]
10. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH A PIOUS DEED THAT YOU DID IN THE
PAST
- An example of this is the story of the three men in the cave when the exit was blocked
with a rock as mentioned in the following hadith:
Narrated By Ibn 'Umar: The Prophet said, "While three persons were walking, rain
began to fall and they had to enter a cave in a mountain. A big rock rolled over
and blocked the mouth of the cave. They said to each other, 'Invoke Allah with the
best deed you have performed (so Allah might remove the rock)'.
One of them said, 'O Allah! My parents were old and I used to go out for grazing
(my animals). On my return I would milk (the animals) and take the milk in a
vessel to my parents to drink. After they had drunk from it, I would give it to my
children, family and wife.
One day I was delayed and on my return I found my parents sleeping, and I
disliked towake them up. The children were crying at my feet (because of hunger).
That state of affairs continued till it was dawn. O Allah! If You regard that I did it
for Your sake, then please remove this rock so that we may see the sky.' So, the
rock was moved a bit.
The second said, 'O Allah! You know that I was in love with a cousin of mine, like
the deepest love a man may have for a woman, and she told me that I would not
get my desire fulfilled unless I paid her one-hundred Dinars (gold pieces). So, I
struggled for it till I gathered the desired amount, and when I sat in between her
legs, she told me to be afraid of Allah, and asked me not to deflower her except
rightfully (by marriage) So, I got up and left her.
O Allah! If You regard that I did if for Your sake, kindly remove this rock.' So, two-
thirds of the rock was removed.
Then the third man said, 'O Allah! No doubt You know that once I employed a
worker for one Faraq (three Sa's) of millet, and when I wanted to pay him, he
refused to take it, so I sowed it and from its yield I bought cows and a shepherd.
After a time that man came and demanded his money.
I said to him Go to those cows and the shepherd and take them for they are for
you. He asked me whether I was joking with him. I told him that I was not joking
with him, and all that belonged to him. O Allah! If You regard that I did it sincerely
for Your sake, then please remove the rock.' So, the rock was removed
completely from the mouth of the cave." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 3, Book 34, Hadith
#418]
- Maybe you did something good 10 years ago, but today you are in a plight.
- You can call upon Allah with that pious deed which you did to remove the calamity
11. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH BY PROMISING TO DO A GOOD DEED FOR THE

SAKE OF ALLAH
- Maybe you have a problem, you can ask Allah to remove it by making a promise
- E.g. a promise to fast for three days.
- If you die before you fulfil the promise, someone in your family has to fulfil it by fasting
the three days
12. TO DRAW NEAR TO ALLAH WITH THE DUA OF A PIOUS PERSON
- For example, if a person is going to hajj/umrah, you can ask them to make a dua for
you
Uthman ibn Haneef (RA) narrated: "A man who was blind came to the Prophet and
requested him to pray to Allah that He may cure me of my blindness. He said, 'If
you wish, but if you be patient, that is better for you.' He said that the Prophet
(SAW) may pray for him. So, the Prophet (SAW) commanded him to make
ablution and make it very well and pray in these words, 'O Allah I ask you and
plead to you through your Prophet Muhammad, Prophet of mercy, I plead by your
virtue O my Lord, for my need, this one that it be granted to me. O Allah, accept
his intercession for me.'" [Tirmidhi 3589, Ibn Majah 1385, Ahmed 17240]
THE HARAM TYPE OF TAWASSUL
- There are people in the world today who say, "O Allah forgive me because of the
status of Muhammad (SAWS)” or “because of the right that Muhammad (SAWS) has
over You”
- Ibn Taymiyyah says this type of tawassul is haram
- But many scholars allow it
- Those who allow it rely on a fabricated hadith
Imaam Haakim and others have narrated on the authority of Sayyiduna Umar ibn
al-Khattaab [radhiallaahu anhu] that Rasulullah [Sallallahu alayhi wasallam] said,
'When Adam [alayhis salaam] ate from the forbidden tree, he said, 'O My Lord, I
ask you through the right of Muhammad [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] that you
forgive me.' The words used were, 'Bi haqqi Muhammad' Allah Ta'ala accepted
Aadam's [alayhis salaam] repentance. (al-Mustadrak vol.2 pg.615; Dalaailun-
Nubuwwah of Imaa Bayhaqi vol.5 pg.489; al-Mu'jamus saghir of Imaam Tabrani
vol.2 pg.82)
- This hadith is not authentic

- Even though Ibn Taymiyyah doesn’t approve of this type of tawassul, it doesn't reach
the level of shirk.
- Many people go to the grave of Muhammad (SAWS) in Madina, begging him to

intercede for them
- They say "O Muhammad, beg Allah to forgive me" because this is their understanding
of tawassul
- When you ask them for evidence of what they're doing, they quote hadith of the blind
man, the hadith of Uthman ibn Hanif.
- They quote it because the hadith is saheeh
- We are going to refute their understanding

- The sahaba begged Muhammad (SAWS) to pray for him, while Muhammad (SAWS)
was alive .
- But when the Prophet passed away, none of the rightly guided caliphs went to his
grave to pray to him even though they suffered a lot of calamities.
- E.g. when Omar was the caliph, he suffered a drought

- Omar went to the uncle of the Prophet (SAWS)
- Abbas prayed for rain and it rained
Narrated By Anas: Whenever drought threatened them, 'Umar bin Al-Khattab,

used to ask Al-Abbas bin 'Abdul Muttalib to invoke Allah for rain. He used to say,
"O Allah! We used to ask our Prophet to invoke You for rain, and You would bless
us with rain, and now we ask his uncle to invoke You for rain. O Allah ! Bless us
with rain." And so it would rain. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2, Book 17, Hadith #123]
- If it were allowed to pray to Muhammad (SAWS) after he died, why didn't Omar do it?
You can call on Muhammad - Hamza Yusuf

- Omar approached a man that was alive
- It's called to do tawassul with the dua of a pious man
Think not of those who are killed in the Way of Allah as dead. Nay, they are alive,
with their Lord, and they have provision. (Aali Imran 3:169)
Verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) will die and verily, they (too) will die. (Az-Zumar
39:30)
Narrated By 'Aisha: Abu Bakr came from his house at As-Sunh on a horse. He
dismounted and entered the Mosque, but did not speak to the people till he
entered upon 'Aisha and went straight to Allah's Apostle who was covered with
Hibra cloth (i.e. a kind of Yemenite cloth). He then uncovered the Prophet's face
and bowed over him and kissed him and wept, saying, "Let my father and mother
be sacrificed for you. By Allah, Allah will never cause you to die twice. As for the
death which was written for you, has come upon you."
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: Abu Bakr went out while Umar bin Al-Khattab was talking to
the people. Abu Bakr said, "Sit down, O 'Umar!" But 'Umar refused to sit down. So
the people came to Abu Bakr and left Umar. Abu Bakr said, "To proceed, if
anyone amongst you used to worship Muhammad , then Muhammad is dead, but
if (anyone of) you used to worship Allah, then Allah is Alive and shall never
die.Allah said: "Muhammad is no more than an Apostle, and indeed (many)
apostles have passed away before him...(till the end of the Verse)... Allah will
reward to those who are thankful." (3.144) By Allah, it was as if the people never
knew that Allah had revealed this Verse before till Abu Bakr recited it and all the
people received it from him, and I heard everybody reciting it (then). [Sahih
Bukhari, Vol 5, Book 59, Hadith #733]
- The Sufis use another argument against us to prove you can pray to Muhammad
(SAWS)
- They use the tasha'hhud as their evidence to worship Muhammad while he is inside
the grave
- Because in the tasha'hhud we say "...peace be upon you O Muhammad"
Narrated Ibn Mas'ud Allah's Apostle taught me the Tashah-hud as he taught me a

Sura from the Quran, while my hand was between his hands. (Tashah-hud was)
all the best compliments and the prayers and the good things are for Allah. Peace
and Allah's Mercy and Blessings be on you, O Prophet! Peace be on us and on
the pious slaves of Allah, I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but
Allah, and I also testify that Muhammad is Allah's slave and His Apostle. (We
used to recite this in the prayer) during the lifetime of the Prophet, but when he
had died, we used to say, "Peace be on the Prophet." [Bukhari - Volume 8, Book
74, Number 281]
- They say, “You are a wahabi, you think Muhammad is dead.”

- They say, “As far as we are concerned, Muhammad (SAWS) is alive and he has all of
his faculties.”
- When they pray to Muhammad (SAWS) in the grave, they turn his grave into an idol
- Let us refute that Muhammad (SAWS) has all of his faculties
Abu Huraira narrated that the Prophet said, "On the Day of Resurrection a group
of companions will come to me, but will be driven away from the Lake-Fount, and
I will say, 'O Lord (those are) my companions!' It will be said, 'You have no
knowledge as to what they innovated after you left; they turned apostate as
renegades (reverted from Islam)." [Sahih Bukhari (8/120) No. 6585]
- The following hadith is evidence that the grave of Muhammad (SAWS) can become an
idol.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn Yasar that the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "O Allah! Do not make my grave an idol that is
worshipped. The anger on those who took the graves of their Prophets as places
of prostration was terrible." [Muwatta Malik (1/223) No. 570, Musannaf Abdur
Razzaq (1/406) No. 1587, Musnad Ahmad (2/246) No. 7352]
- The Sufis who call upon Muhammad (SAWS) are worse than the pagans of Makkah.
- Because the pagans of Makkah called upon Allah alone when they were suffering
And when they embark on a ship, they invoke Allah, making their Faith pure for
Him only, but when He brings them safely to land, behold, they give a share of
their worship to others. (Al-'Ankabut 29:65)
Thus is the Word of your Lord justified against those who rebel (disobey Allah)
that they will not believe (in the Oneness of Allah and in Muhammad SAW as the
Messenger of Allah). (Yunus 10:33)
And when harm touches you upon the sea, those that you call upon besides Him
vanish from you except Him (Allah Alone). But when He brings you safely to land,
you turn away (from Him). And man is ever ungrateful.(Al-Isra 17:67)
- Allah told you that when you call upon dead people, Allah blocks them from hearing
your kufr and your shirk.
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case) they
were to hear, they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of
Resurrection, they will disown your worshipping them. And none can inform you
(O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who is the AllKnower (of each and
- Allah said you are worshipping them in the above ayah

- When you call upon them, you are wasting your time
- Because of the ayah, you are not allowed to doubt that the grave worshipper is a kaafir
- Then Allah told you in another ayah that the grave worshippers are liars and kaafirs
those who take Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say) : "We worship
them only that they may bring us near to Allah." Verily, Allah will judge between
them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly, Allah guides not him who is a
liar, and a disbeliever. (Az-Zumar 39:3)
- I've given you 12 ways to do tawassul in a halal way, so there is no need for you to
dabble in shirk

The Prophet said there are 7 greatest sins:

1. Shirk
2. Magic
3. Murder
4. Riba
5. Rob the orphan
6. Run from battlefield
7. Slander pious Muslimahs
Narrated Abu-Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him); ‘The Prophet (SAWS) said: “Avoid the
seven great destructive sins.” The people enquired; ‘O Allah’s Messenger! What are they?’ The
Prophet (SAWS) said: To join others in worship along with Allah, to practise sorcery, to kill the life
that Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law), to eat up usury, to eat
up the orphan’s wealth, to show one’s back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the
time of fighting, and to accuse the chaste women, who never even think of anything touching
chastity and are good believers.” (Bukhari).
1. SHIRK
-shirk means ascribing partners to Allah tala
-this sin will never be forgiven
Verily, Allâh forgives not that partners should be set up with Him (in worship), but He forgives
except that (anything else) to whom He wills; and whoever sets up partners with Allâh in worship,
he has indeed invented a tremendous sin. (An-Nisa 4:48)
-Allah tala forgives MINOR shirk (doing good w/ ulterior motives)

-they will be taken out of the hellfire
-The prophet was told not to pray for those who died committing major shirk
-see 9:113 for the hujjah (evidence)
It is not (proper) for the Prophet and those who believe to ask Allâh's Forgiveness for the
Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) even though they
be of kin, after it has become clear to them that they are the dwellers of the Fire (because they
died in a state of disbelief). ( Al-Tawba 9:113)
-no need to beg Allah tala because it compromises on his stance w/ the mushrikeen
-your pagan (mushrikeen) family is not special
-see 4:48
You’re not allowed to pray to ALLAH and beg ALLAH to forgive those
- who died on shirk because
- you’re asking ALLAH to compromise on His stance >> 4:48
Abu Talib was the biggest sympathizer to Islam
-but he died as a mushrik (pagan)
-but his other uncle, Abass became a Muslim
-The prophet (saws) said he begged for Allah tala
-to give Abu Talib something special
-so he asked for the lightest punishment in the hellfire
-see 3:85
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported: Verily, the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: The
least tormented of the inhabitants of the Fire would be he who would wear two shoes of Fire and
his brain would boil on account of the heat of the shoes. Sahih Muslim 0412
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the
Hereafter he will be one of the losers. (Al-E-Imran 3:85)
-Abu Talib didn't give Shahadah on his death bed

-on the religion of Abu Talib, I die
-Allah tala revealed 28:56 to comfort the Prophet (saws)
Verily! You (O Muhammad SAW) guide not whom you like, but Allâh guides whom He wills. And
He knows best those who are the guided
(Al-Qasas 28:56)
-only Allah tala can guide people to Islam
Ibn 'Abbas reported: The Prophet (may peace be upon him) said: Among the inhabitants of the
Fire Abu Talib would have the least suffering, and he would be wearing two shoes (of Fire) which
would boil his brain. Sahih Muslim 0413
-The prophet had emotional love so this is ok for us

-but we're not to have spiritual love for our kaafir family members
-always give Shahadah to your family before they die
HOW DO CHRISTIANS and JEWS commit shirk?

-legislation and obedience:
-they took their priests and rabbis instead of Allah tala
They (Jews and Christians) took their rabbis and their monks to be their lords besides Allâh (by
obeying them in things which they made lawful or unlawful according to their own desires without
being ordered by Allâh), [Al-Tawba 9:31]
Christians say:
-we don't worship them but the Prophet said they make haraam halal
-some people think worship is only when you make sadjah but it's not true
-the Prophet taught him worship is not only bowing down to idols
-if someone says to you: I will make pork halal for you to eat
-that is the shirk of legislation
-obeying that man practices the shirk of obedience
'Adi Ibn Hatim said that he came to the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wa sallam)wearing a gold cross
around his neck. The Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wa sallam) said: "O 'Adi! Throw away this idol from
yourself." Then the Prophet sallalahu alaihi wa sallam recited the verse: They (Jews and
Christians) took their rabbis and their monks to be their lords besides Allah" (9:31) "It was not that
they worshipped these people, but rather whatever they made permissible for them, they believed
it to be permissible and whatever they forbade, they believed to be unlawful. " (Tirmidhi)
The shirk of obedience and legislation = all sins have brothers and sisters
He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. How can He have children when He has no wife?
He created all things and He is the All-Knower of everything[] ( Al-Anaam 6:101)
And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. Gen
6:6
CHRISTIANS believe ...

-Allah made a son from a woman's womb
-they think Jacob defeated God in a wrestling match
-they think Allah tala made taubah for making mankind
--They say ALLAH rested on the 7th day; they also say ALLAH fathered a son
And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power
with God and with men, and hast prevailed. Gen 32:28
SHAIKH IN KENYA
-they didn't want him to tour so it would remain mostly Christian
-he quotes the Bible verses that refute each other
-Shaikh even uses different Bible verses not always quoting the same ones
-so use these to refute Christianity
-they describe Allah tala w/ human qualities but we use His 99 names & attributes
MUSLIMS ARE UNIQUE

-you are the best ummah
-see 3:110
MUSLIMS:
1. Enjoin the right
2. Forbid the wrong
3. Believe in Allah tala so we believe in Allah tala properly
You [true believers in Islâmic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW and his
Sunnah] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islâmic
Monotheism and all that Islâm has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all
that Islâm has forbidden), and you believe in Allâh... ( Al-E-Imran 3:110)
THE JEWS
-the Jews say Allah 'tala's hands are tied
-they say Allah ‘tala is poor (faqeer)
Indeed, Allâh has heard the statement of those (Jews) who say: "Truly, Allâh is poor and we are
rich!" (Al-E-Imran 3:181)
SHIITES aqeeda says Allah tala is a liar
Allah often lies and does mistakes. (Usool-e-Kaafi, page #328, Yaqoob Kulaini, Vol 1).
-the Muslim is the only person in the world who does spew venom at Allah tala
-not even Allah tala is spared from their lies
-if they slander us, we need to run to Alaska
-in Bukhari, you'll never find a SHIA in the chain of transmitters
-their aqeeda is identical to the Jews
-Muslims do not blaspheme Allah 'tala
Glorified is your Lord, the Lord of Honour and Power! (He is free) from what they attribute unto
Him! (180) And peace be on the Messengers! (181) And all the praises and thanks are to Allâh,
Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists). (182) [As-Saaffat 37:180-182]
5 GREATEST PROPHETS TO WALK THE EARTH ARE:

MUHAMMAD
ABRAHAM
MUSA
JESUS and
NUR (NOAH)
2) BLACK MAGIC
a) anything that happens in front of you and you can't explain it
-we can't accept that definition
b) to subdue the jinn who spread mischief on earth
QUESTION: WHAT IF I USE THE JINN FOR GOOD THINGS?

-we are not permitted to use a jinn
-punishment for magician is 1 strike of the sword
-it makes you a kaafir to practice it
And follow that which the devils falsely related against the kingdom of Solomon. Solomon
disbelieved not; but the devils disbelieved, teaching mankind magic and that which was revealed
to the two angels in Babel, Harut and Marut. Nor did they (the two angels) teach it to anyone till
they had said: We are only a temptation, therefore disbelieve not (in the guidance of Allah). And
from these two (angles) people learn that by which they cause division between man and wife; but
they injure thereby no-one save by Allah's leave. And they learn that which harmeth them and
profiteth them not. And surely they do know that he who trafficketh therein will have no (happy)
portion in the Hereafter; and surely evil is the price for which they sell their souls, if they but
knew. (Al-Baqarah 2:102)
And those who invoke not any other ilâh (god) along with Allâh, nor kill such person as Allâh has
forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse - and whoever does this
shall receive the punishment (Al-Furqan 25:68)
3) MURDER
-see 25:68
-Muslims don't kill people w/o a right or do zina
-because when zina is rife then murder becomes rife, too
-example: if you seduce a man's wife, he will kill you!
”None of you will truly believe until you love for your brother what you love for yourself”. (Al-
Bukhari)
Murder is a serious matter
Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in
retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all
mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. 5:32
-the blood money is 200 cows (100 for a woman )

-the family might refuse blood money and rather you be killed
-blood money is called “dia”
Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in
retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all
mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.... (Al-Maeda
5:32)
WHEN MU'WAIYA WAS CALIPH

-man killed a man who had a son and when the toddler grew up
-he said I don't want blood money; I want him dead
-so they had to kill the man
-if you kill a Muslim because he slept w/ your wife: you're still a Muslim
-if you kill a Muslim because of the Islam in him, you're a kaafir
-some murderers are faasiq and some are kaafir
“Not one of you is a believer until you wish for others what you wish for yourself.” (Fourth Hadith
of an-Nawawi 13)
4) RIBA (interest ... lending them $1000 and asking for $1,500 - the extra is the riba)
And if you do not do it, then take a notice of war from Allâh and His Messenger[] but if you repent,
you shall have your capital sums. Deal not unjustly (by asking more than your capital sums), and
you shall not be dealt with unjustly (by receiving less than your capital sums). (Al-Baqara 2:279)
-when you take riba .. see 2:279 you declare war on Allah tala and Muhammad (saws)
-taking riba is like a man having s-x w/ his mother in the belly of the kaba
-should we leave riba in the bank? no!
-give it away in charity - and don't expect any barakah
"Riba has seventy segments, the least serious being equivalent to a man committing adultery with
his own mother." (Ibn Majah)
DIFFERENT TYPES OF RIBA

-if SH swapped a Toyota for a Mercedes cars, that is riba in re: quality
-or swapping silver for gold
-loaning $1,000 and asking for $1,500 as return payment is riba in re: quantity
-riba ul fadl ?
-riba is a satanic system and kuffaar use to bankrupt countries
-even the kuffaar know riba is satanic
5) TO ROB THE ORPHAN

-see An-Nisa 4:10
-it's like swallowing hellfire in our bellies
Verily, those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, they eat up only a fire into their bellies,
and they will be burnt in the blazing Fire! (An-Nisa 4:10)
-let's interject that not all murder makes you a kaafir

-because if you kill your wife while she commits adultery,
-you did nothing wrong because you were only protecting your honor
Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Sa'd b. Ubada (Allah be pleased with him)
said: Messenger of Allah, if I were to find with my wife a man, should I not touch him before
bringing four witnesses? Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Yes. He said: By no
means. By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I would hasten with my sword to him before that.
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Listen to what your chief says. He is jealous of
his honour, I am more jealous than he and God is more jealous than I. Sahih Muslim Book 9 , 3571
-robbing the orphan makes you a faasiq not a kaafir
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"The best house among the Muslims is the house in which orphans are well treated. The worst
house among the Muslims is the house in which orphans are ill treated. I and the guardian of the
orphan will be in the Garden like that," indicating his two fingers. [Bukhari]
-the Khawarijj like to believe we'd become a kaafir when we commit minor sins
6) RUN AWAY FROM THE BATTLEFIELD

-when we go for jihad, we're not permitted to run from the battlefield
-see 8:65 for hujjah
O Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Urge the believers to fight. If there are twenty steadfast persons
amongst you, they will overcome two hundred, and if there be a hundred steadfast persons they
will overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they (the disbelievers) are people who
do not understand. (Al-Anfal 8:65)
-RATIO: 20:200 -- 100:1000 =

-the ratio Allah tala outlined for how many we need to defeat the kuffaar
ABROGATED VERSE:
The Sahabahs complained the ratio was too wide .. so Allah tala revealed 6:66
-to lighten our burden
-the Sahabahs complained of this ratio >>
-therefore ALLAH revealed 8:66, canceling 8:65
-if there is 3 against 1, you can run
-it's a matter of Ijtihad
Now Allâh has lightened your (task), for He knows that there is weakness in you. So if there are of
you a hundred steadfast persons, they shall overcome two hundreds, and if there are a thousand
of you, they shall overcome two thousand with the Leave of Allâh. And Allâh is with As-Sâbirûn
(the patient). (Al-Anfal 8:66)
Narrated Ibn Abbas: When the Verse:-- "If there are twenty steadfast amongst you, they will
overcome two hundred." (8.65) was revealed, then it became obligatory for the Muslims that one
(Muslim) should not flee from ten (non-Muslims). Sufyan (the sub-narrator) once said, "Twenty
(Muslims) should not flee before two hundred (non Muslims)." Then there was revealed: 'But now
Allah has lightened your (task)..' (8.66) So it became obligatory that one-hundred (Muslims) should
not flee before two hundred (non-Muslims). (Once Sufyan said extra, "The Verse: 'Urge the
believers to the fight.
If there are twenty steadfast amongst you (Muslims) ..' was revealed.) Sufyan said, "Ibn Shabrama
said, "I see that this order is applicable to the obligation of enjoining good and forbidding evil."
(Bukhari, Book #60, Hadith #175)
3 stalwarts were killed at the BATTLE OF MUTA

-the women of Madinah wanted to know why the men ran back but this was correct
-because the ratio was MORE than 2:1
-the other exception is when GOG and MAGOG come,
-then we can run (their #'s will be too great for us)
-it won't be held against us on the DAY OF JUDGMENT
-it's Jesus job to kill them, not ours, so there will come acid rain upon them
7) SLANDER PIOUS, BELIEVING MUSLIM WOMEN

-to accuse them of being lesbians is so bad
-see 24:23
Verily, those who accuse chaste women, who never even think of anything touching their chastity
and are good believers,— are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter, and for them will be a great
torment, (Al-Noor 24:23)
-when Aisha was slandered, her body became numb and she could not even do NATURE
-the slander nearly killed her
-to accuse her, your destiny is in the hellfire: unless she forgives you
-control your tongue or you're at her mercy
SHAIKH FAISAL encourages us to forgive

-if a true Muslim slanders you, please forgive them
-no benefit, tho in forgiving a munafiqh because he's going to the hellfire anyway
-see An-Nisa 4:145
Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find for
them. (An-Nisa 4:145)
IF YOU ARE SLANDERED IN THIS DUNYA, PLEASE FORGIVE THE REAL MUSLIM WHO DOES
THIS
BUT DON'T BOTHER FORGIVING THE MUNAFIQH - THEY ARE GOING TO HELLFIRE, ANYWAY

EDITED & FORMATTED BY ABU HAFIZA
WHAT IS AL FITRA?
Al fitra means those inborn natural instincts given to man by Allah (SWT), to enable him to carry out his
role as Allah's Khalifa properly and effectively on earth.
THE THREE CATEGORIES OF MAN IN REGARDS TO AL FITRA
Mankind is divided up in three categories in regards to our natural instincts.
We have two extremes and the middle path.
1) PEOPLE WHO ARE BEING CONTROL BY THEIR NATURAL INSTINCT
The first categories are those people who are being controlled by their natural instincts.
They aren't able to control their natural instincts, which dictate to them.
They cannot control their feelings.
They are beneath the level of the cattle.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Furqaan verse 42 to 44

He would have nearly misled us from our āliha (gods), had it not been that we were patient and
constant in their worship!" And they will know when they see the torment, who it is that is most
astray from the (Right) Path! Have you (O Muhammad SAW) seen him who has taken as his ilāh
(god) his own desire? Would you then be a Wakīl (a disposer of his affairs or a watcher) over him?
(Al-Furqan 25:42-44)
They cannot say "no" to their desires of the pleasures of the flesh.
They are very promiscuous because they worship their evil and corrupted desires.
They can't control their natural instincts, it controls them.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah At Tin verse 4 to 6
Verily, We created man of the best stature (mould),Then We reduced him to the lowest of the low,
Save those who believe (in Islāmic Monotheism) and do righteous deeds, then they shall have a
reward without end (Paradise).
(At-Tin 95:4-6)
Man is addicted to his corrupted and evil desires.
These are the first category of people in regards to our natural instincts.
2) THOSE WHO TRY TO IGNORE OR SUPPRESS OUR NATURAL INSTINCTS
Like the catholic priests.
He is the exact opposite of the first category.
The first category is like the gigolo.
He can't suppress his natural instincts.
The second category is the exact opposite of that.
But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves (Al-Hadid 57:27)
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Hadid verse 27
But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they
sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance.
So We gave those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are Fasiqun
(rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
(Al-Hadid 57:27)
Muslims practice a limited type of monasticism during Ramadan, we stay away from our wives during the
day.
The catholic church went to the extreme.
They start abusing boys.
They abstain from women and abuse boys.
They fall into this because they practice a bid'ah
They are practicing a concoction of human folly.
3) THE MUSLIMS
We acknowledge our natural instincts.
We are between the priest and the gigolo.
We are in the middle path.
We do not go to the extreme.
We were made the balanced nation By Allah (SWT).
Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islamic Monotheism, true followers of
Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation, that you be
witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a witness over you.
(Al-Baqarah 2:143)
Because we are a balance' nation we don't practice like the gigolo or the priest.
We are called the just nation.
We do not practice promiscuity like the gigolo or celibacy like the priest.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Baqarah verse 143
And thus we have made you a just community that you will be witnesses over the people and the
Messenger will be a witness over you.
(Al-Baqarah 2:143) Sahih International
Wasat means you are in the middle.
You are in the middle of the materialist and the spiritualist.
You pay attention to both.
"I marry women. Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me.”
(Trans Sahih al Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol 7 Book 67 hadith 5063. Sahih-Muslim, English
translation Vol 2 pg 703 No.3236)
This proves that marriage is only between a man and a woman.
Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA), who said that the Prophet (SAW) said: “They will follow the ways of
those who came before them, hand span by hand span, cubit by cubit, until even if they entered a
lizard’s hole they will follow them.” We said: “O Messenger of Allah, (do you mean) the Jews and
Christians?” He said: “Who else?”
Some of you suffer from inferiority complex.
You will follow them in their gay marriages.
They have even opened a gay masjid in France.

The man who is opening the masjid is suffering from aids.
He won't live to see its opening.
Muslims indulge in our natural instincts according to Quran and sunnah.
Why is it that we indulge in our natural instincts?
Why don't we suppress it like the catholic priests?
Because Allah (SWT) told us to have fun.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Qasas verse 77
But seek, with that (wealth) which Allah has bestowed on you, the home of the Hereafter, and
forget not your portion of legal enjoyment in this world, and do good as Allah has been good to
you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidun (those who commit
great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupts).
(Al-Qasas 28:77)
Allah (SWT) says in this ayat to have fun, in the halaal way.
This is why we have sex and are not shy about it.
What the catholic priest are doing is nothing but a cursed innovation.
:: WHAT ARE THE 17 NATURAL INSTINCTS OF MANKIND? ::
1) TO LOVE LIFE AND FEAR DEATH
This is called the survival instinct,
Allah (SWT) gave this instinct so that we do not commit suicide.
Any society where suicide is rife that society is abnormal.
Something is wrong with that society.
Christians and Jews love to quote sheikh Google and say Europeans are the happiest people.
By Google it is said that these places are the most dangerous and the top 10 countries for suicide are
kuffar countries Canada, USA and even India are there.
So when they quote shaikh Google, throw it back in their faces.
Russia, Japan, all these are on the list.
Narrated Abu Huraira-: The prophet pbuh said, "He who commits suicide by throttling shall keep
on throttling himself in the Hell Fire (forever) and he who commits suicide by stabbing himself
shall keep on stabbing himself in the Hell-Fire."
(Bukhari: Vol 2 Book 23 hadith 446 & Bukhari #23, Hadith #446)
The million dollar question: If a Muslim kills himself is he a kaffir?
The shaikhs said it is only a khawarji who say this.
What the Muslim did was wrong, but he is not a kaffir.
When they quote the hadith they have *forever* in brackets.
They have to do this because all will not remain in the hellfire forever.
Allah (SWT) said Jews love life more than everybody else.
Jews don't want to die because they know they will be in the hellfire.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baqarah verse 95 to 96
Say to (them) : "If the home of the Hereafter with Allah is indeed for you specially and not for
others, of mankind, then long for death if you are truthful." But they will never long for it because
of what their hands have sent before them (i.e. what they have done). And Allah is All-Aware of the
Zelman (polytheists and wrong-doers). And verily, you will find them (the Jews) the greediest of
mankind for life and (even greedier) than those who - ascribe partners to Allah (and do not believe
in Resurrection - Magians, pagans, and idolaters, etc.). Everyone of them wishes that he could be
given a life of a thousand years. But the grant of such life will not save him even a little from (due)
punishment. And Allah is All-Seer of what they do.
(Al-Baqarah 2:95-96)
They don't want stem cell research to go on in the USA because they don't want people to live for 1000
years.
They will have to support these people.
Ibn Abbas (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Verily the most painful punishment
on the Day of Judgment are those who kill the prophets or people murdered by the prophet or kill
one of his parents, and making statues and knowledgeable people who do not benefit from his
knowledge."
[Related by Bayhaqi in 'Shu'ab al-Iman' (10/288 No. 7504]
Narrated By Abdullah (bin Masud): On the day of Badr, Al-Miqdad said, "O Allah's Apostle! We do
not say to you as the children of Israel said to Moses, 'Go you and your Lord and fight you two;
we are sitting here, (5.24) but (we say). "Proceed, and we are with you." That seemed to delight
Allah's Apostle greatly.
[Sahih Bukhari, Vol 6, Book 60, Hadith #133]
This hadith proves the Jews are cowards.
2) TO ACCEPT MONOTHEISM OVER POLYTHEISM
Because this is your natural instinct to accept monotheism.
Even the pharaoh took the Shahadah.
He had this instinct of monotheism over polytheism.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an in surah An Naml verse 14
And they belied them (those Ayat) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their ownselves were
convinced thereof [i.e. those (Ayat) are from Allah, and Musa (Moses) is the Messenger of Allah in
truth, but they disliked to obey Musa (Moses), and hated to believe in his Message of
Monotheism]. So see what was the end of the Mufsidun (disbelievers, disobedient to Allah, evil-
doers, liars.).
(An-Naml 27:14)
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran that pharaoh believed in his heart the message of Musa (AS).
There are no atheists in the world. They are all liars.
This ayat proves that this is a natural instinct for all.
Because the pharaoh believed, he took his Shahada.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Yunus verse 90 to 92
And We took the Children of Israel across the sea, and Fir'aun (Pharaoh) with his hosts followed
them in oppression and enmity, till when drowning overtook him, he said: "I believe that La ilaha
illa (Huwa) : (none has the right to be worshipped but) He," in Whom the Children of Israel believe,
and I am one of the Muslims (those who submit to Allah's Will)." Now (you believe) while you
refused to believe before and you were one of the Mufsidun (evil-doers, corrupts, etc.). So this day
We shall deliver your (dead) body (out from the sea) that you may be a sign to those who come
after you! And verily, many among mankind are heedless of Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs , revelations, etc.).
(Yunus 10:90-92)
But Allah (SWT) threw his shahadah back in his face like a dirty rag.
Allah (SWT) did not accept his shahadah; it as too little too late.
Pharaoh said he was a Muslim.
He used the word Muslim.
Allah (SWT) asked him if now he believed.
When he refused to believe before.
His body was on the seafloor for 3000 years.
Then they discovered his body...intact!
How could a kaffir know this and not believe in the Quran before his death.
You have to be the devil himself to read this prediction and not believe.
His body was not eaten by the fish.

It was preserved untouched by fish and sea water.
So it is your natural instinct to believe in monotheism, that there is one Allah (SWT).
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger said, “Every child is born on the religion (of
Islam). Then his parents make him a Jew, a Christian or a polytheist.” Someone said, “O
Messenger of Allah, (what about) those who die before (their parents convert them)?” He said,
“Allah knows best what they would have done (if they had survived).”
[Al-Bukhari (6599) Bukhari: 2 Book 23 hadith 440 and Muslim (2658]
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah A'raf verse 172 & 173
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their loins, their
seed (or from Adam's loin his offspring) and made them testify as to themselves (saying) : "Am I
not your Lord?" They said: "Yes! We testify," lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection:
"Verily, we have been unaware of this."
(Al-A'raf 7:172)
Or lest you should say: "It was only our fathers afortime who took others as partners in worship
along with Allah, and we were (merely their) descendants after them; will You then destroy us
because of the deeds of men who practised Al-Batil (i.e. polytheism and committing crimes and
sins, invoking and worshipping others besides Allah)?" (Tafsir At-Tabari).
(Al-A'raf 7:173)
Allah (SWT) made us testify so that on judgement day you do not have the excuse of ignorance.
You cannot blame your parents.
It is your natural instinct to worship one Allah.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Ar Rum verse 30
So set you (O Muhammad SAW) your face towards the religion of pure Islamic Monotheism Hanifa
(worship none but Allah Alone) Allah's Fitrah (i.e. Allah's Islamic Monotheism), with which He has
created mankind. No change let there be in Khalqillah (i.e. the Religion of Allah Islamic
Monotheism), that is the straight religion, but most of men know not. [Tafsir At Tabari, Vol 21,
Page 41]
(Ar-Rum 30:30)
Allah (SWT) created you with this natural instinct.
Some believe that if a man worships a false deity Allah (SWT) will forgive him because he did not know
better.
Narrated from Anas (RA) that a man said: “O Messenger of Allah, where is my father?” He said:
“In Hell.” When he turned away he called him back and said: “My father and your father are in
Hell.”
[Sahih Muslim Book 1 Chapter 86 Hadith 398]
Even though the prophet's father died before he was born, he is still in the hellfire.
This hadith is the knockout punch for those who say differently.
For those who say they give the person the excuse of ignorance because they did not know better.
Even the animals worship Allah (SWT) alone.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah As Saff verse 1
Whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies Allah. And He is the All-
Mighty, the All-Wise.
(As-Saff 61:1)
When prophet Sulaiman (AS) gathered his army and the bird was late, the bird complained to Sulaiman
(AS) that he found people worshipping the sun other than Allah (SWT).
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah An Naml verse 23 to 24.
"I found a woman ruling over them, and she has been given all things that could be possessed by
any ruler of the earth, and she has a great throne."I found her and her people worshipping the sun
instead of Allah, and Shaitan (Satan) has made their deeds fair-seeming to them, and has barred
them from (Allah's) Way, so they have no guidance,"
(An-Naml 27:23-24)
The bird knew that only Allah (SWT) alone deserves to be worshiped, why don't YOU man know this.
How come you are worshiping elephants and cows in India they worship the penis.
They do not worship Allah (SWT).
In India some worship the graves.
Only Muslims worship Allah (SWT).
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Fatir verse 14
worshipping them. And none can inform you (O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who is the All Knower
(of each and everything)
(Fatir 35:14)
If a bird knows that Allah (SWT) alone deserves to be worship why doesn't the beraivli know this?
In the above mentioned ayat, Allah (SWT) makes takfir on the beraivlis calling them grave worshipers.
3) THE ABILITY TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL
To distinguish between good and evil.
You don't have to be a Muslim to know not to steal.
In every country they lock up thieves.
Even in darul harb.
In every country they lock up rapists and murderers.
You don't have to be a Muslim to know that rape is wrong.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Ash Shams verse 7 to 8
And by Nafs (Adam or a person or a soul, etc.), and Him Who perfected him in proportion; Then
He showed him what is wrong for him and what is right for him;
(Ash-Shams 91:7-8)
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Balad verse 8 to 10
Have We not made for him a pair of eyes? And a tongue and a pair of lips? And shown him the
two ways (good and evil)?
(Al-Balad 90:8-10)
There are two highways two motorways.
People don't want the hard road.
People don't want the steep road.
The flat road is easy.
It is easier not to make fajr and not to fast.
It is easy to have girlfriends.
No responsibility.
With a wife you have responsibilities.
4) TO LOVE YOUR COUNTRY, YOUR TRIBE OR YOUR RACE
The shaitan uses this natural instinct to make us loyal even though the country race and tribe is wrong.
Love for these things is a virus.
Shaiytan used this to destroy the Jews.
If a Jew knows that Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is the messenger of Allah (SWT) why does
he reject?
It is because of racism, because of asabiya they go to the hellfire.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baraqah verse 146
Those to whom We gave the Scripture (Jews and Christians) recognise him (Muhammad or the
Ka'bah at Makkah) as they recognise their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while
they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muhammad which are written in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel)]
(Al-Baqarah 2:146)
They reject all in the name of racism.
They prefer hellfire over paradise over asabiya.
Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was a gentile to them so they will never follow him.
The shaitan plays on these natural instincts.
He manipulates you with these viruses.
He was able to lead Adam (AS) astray using these natural instincts.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah TA HA verse 120
Then Shaitan (Satan) whispered to him, saying : "O Adam! Shall I lead you to the Tree of Eternity
and to a kingdom that will never waste away?"
(Ta-Ha 20:120)
He gave Adam (AS) an offer he could not refuse.
Too beautiful to refuse.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Hujurat verse 13
who has At-Taqwa [i.e. one of the Muttaqun (pious - see V.2:2). Verily, Allah is All-Knowing, All-
Aware.
(Al-Hujurat 49:13)
Allah (SWT) revealed an ayat to counteract the waswas of the shaitan,
Allah (SWT) knew the shaiytan would use your natural instincts against you.
The clearer the skin, the more beautiful you are
This exists in black and Indian community.
White people adore the black people more than the black people.
Blacks try to lighten their skin where whites try to get darker.
Black people hate the black skin because man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Adiyat verse 6
Verily! Man (disbeliever) is ungrateful to his Lord; And to that fact he bears witness (by his
deeds); And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth
(Al-'Adiyat 100:6)
Narrated Jubair ibn Mut’im: The Messenger of Allah (SAW), said: "He is not one us who calls for
Àsabiyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who fights for Àsabiyah or who dies for Àsabiyah."
[Sunan Abu Dawud (Vol. 2, pg. 753) No. 5121]
Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “One who fights under the banner
of a people who are blind to the cause for which they are fighting, (i.e. do not know whether their
cause is just or unjust) who get flared up with Asabya, calls people to fight for their Asabiya. And
supports his kith and kin (i.e. fights not for the cause of Allah but for the sake of his asabiyya) if
he is killed (in this fight) he dies as one belonging to the days of Jahiliyiah (the pre-Islamic days of
ignorance).
(Sahih Muslim (English Trans.) Vol. 3 pg.1030
To love your country is a part of Imaan.
(Classified fabricated by Saghaani)
We have come back from the minor jihad to the major one" someone asked: "What is the major
Jihad O Messenger of Allah?" he replied: "Jihad of the nafs,"
(This report, collected by Bayhaqi is fabricated as mentioned in Mannaar as-Subl of Ibn Qayyim al-
Jawziyyah)
5) TO LOVE POWER, HONOUR AND PRESTIGE
The shaitan uses this to turn people in to tyrants e.g. the pharaoh.
He rebelled against the message and said he himself was Allah (SWT).
He even used Musa’s (AS) speech impediment against him.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah An Nazi'at verse 20-24
Then [Musa (Moses)] showed him the great sign (miracles). But [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] belied and
disobeyed; Then he turned his back, striving hard (against Allah).Then he gathered his people and
cried aloud Saying: "I am your lord, most high",
(An-Nazi'at 79:20-24)
He said Musa (AS) could hardly speak.
He used this as an argument against Musa (AS).
In the above mentioned ayat the Pharaoh claimed to be the most high, something the shaiytan never
claimed.
The shaiytan laughed at him and said he fell into his web.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Az Zukhruf verse 52
Am I not better than this one [Musa (Moses)], who is Mahin [has no honour nor any respect, and is
weak and despicable] and can scarcely express himself clearly?
(Az-Zukhruf 43:52)
Power got to pharaoh’s head.
He didn't want to lose his position.
The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Allah the Almighty said, ‘Pride is My
cloak and greatness is My robe, and he who competes with Me in respect of either of them, I shall
cast into the Hell Fire.’”
[Sunan Abu Dawud - Classed as Sahih by Shaykh al-Albaani]
Narrated By Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "Allah will hold the whole earth, and roll
all the heavens up in His Right Hand, and then He will say, 'I am the King; where are the kings of
the earth?'"
[Al-Bukhari (7382) Bukhari: Vol: 6 Book 60 hadith 336 and Muslim (2787)]
6 - THE INSTINCT OF BEING ATTRACTED TO THE OPPOSITE SEX
You have to be attracted to the opposite gender.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Ar Rum verse 21
And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may
find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed
signs for a people who reflect.
(Ar-Rum 30:21)
"I marry women. Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me.”
(Trans Sahih al Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol 7 Book 67 hadith 5063. Sahih-Muslim, English
translation Vol 2 pg 703 No.3236)
When Abu Bakr Siddiq (RA) was a caliph, they discussed homosexuality, as when Ali (RA) was Caliph.
Ibn Abbas (RA) said you should topple wall on top of them.
Why would he say to burn their bodies? You burn the bodies of Muslim.
The killing of homosexuals is done in the Islamic state.
Why would he say to burn their bodies? You cant burn the bodies of Muslims.
7/p122-124.
Talib.
time of Abu Bakr.
then he is stoned.
Four Caliphs burned the bodies of homosexuals.
That there is no prescribed punishment, rather it is left up to the Imam to perform Ta'zir, and this
was narrated from Abu Hanifah, and one narration from Ash-Shafi'i, and others.
Abu Bakr (RA), Ali (RA), Abdullah Ibn Zubayr (RA) and Hisham ibn Abdul Malik (RA).
specify which way of killing is the strongest.
Abu Hanifa (RA) was lenient with homosexuals. His opinion should not be taken seriously because it went
against the Ijmah of the Sahabas
Imam Shawkani (RA) refused the punishment of homosexuality as being same as Zinah
he didnt accept the opinion of Abu Hanifa that the homosexual is given Ta'zir (like 10 lashes etc).
The Hanbali Madhab is that they should be killed.
It was also the Madhab of Imam Malik, as well as Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, and Imam Shafi
According to Shariah law, you are not allowed to kill a lesbian.

Why? Because lesbian sex is fake and is not real.
Some qiyas is wrong.
Lesbians are not killed, but homosexuals are killed.
7TH: THE INSTINCT OF WANTING TO BE LOVED AND ACCEPTED BY OTHERS
Whenever a child is not shown any love, the child becomes emotionally insecure and it is easy for
someone to exploit that child, because its called "damaged goods"
- rejection is the worst damage you can do to a child so that child is easy to exploit, there is a vacuum in
the child to be filled - the need to be loved and accepted by others.
Rejection is the worst damage that can be done to a child. If you are rejected you are damaged for life,
and not everyone can cope with rejection even for an adult.
not everyone can cope with rejection.
A man can cope with rejection more than a woman.
If you ask a woman if she would propose to a man, she would say *hell no*
she cannot cope with rejection.
A girl child can't cope if her father rejects her.
A man can get over rejection in five minutes, it takes a woman five years.
The female ego can't cope with rejection, this is why she will not propose.
Some men cannot cope also. some commit suicide.
The Prophet(saw) said: “When Allah loves a servant, He calls Gabriel and says, ‘Verily I love so
and so; you should also love him’, and Gabriel begins to love him. Then he(Gabriel) makes an
announcement in the heaven saying, ‘Allah loves so and so, you should also love him’, and then
the inhabitants of the heavens (the angels) also begin to love him and then there conferred
honour upon him in the earth; and whenever Allah dislikes a servant of His, HE calls Gabriel and
says, ‘I dislike so and so you should also dislike him’, and then Gabriel also dislikes him and then
makes an announcement amongst the inhabitants of heaven, ‘Verily ALLAH dislike so and so, so
you should dislike him’, and thus they also dislike him. Then he becomes the object of wrath of
the earth also”.
(Sahih Muslim (English translation) Vol. 4 pg1385 No.6373)
The Prophet(saw) said: “When Allah loves a servant, He calls Gabriel and says, ‘Verily I love so

the earth also”.
(Sahih Muslim (English translation) Vol. 4 pg1385 No.6373)
THE 6 TYPES OF LOVE
1) - EMOTIONAL LOVE
This is the love you have for your parents and siblings.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qu'ran surah Al Qasis verse 56
Verily! You (O Muhammad SAW) guide not whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And
He knows best those who are the guided.
(Al-Qasas 28:56)
If you love your parents and they are not Muslims, you did not do wrong as the prophet loved his uncle,
Abu Talib even though he was a kafir.
2) - PHYSICAL LOVES
This is when you are attracted to your spouse/partner. This is called chemistry.
You are not allowed to marry until you are absolutely sure about the chemistry.
The prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) always told his sahabahs to go and see the girl before
proposing, to ensure there was chemistry.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah An Nisa verse 3
And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry (other)
women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly
(with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is
nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.
(An-Nisa 4:3)
From Abu Hurayrah: “I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when a
man came and told him that he had married a woman of the Ansar. The Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to him, ‘Have you seen her?’ He said, ‘No.’ He
said, ‘Go and look at her, for there is something in the eyes of the Ansar.”
(Reported by Muslim, no. 1424; and by al-Daaraqutni, 3/253 (34))
Mughirah ibn Shu’bah (RA) said that he proposed to a woman. So, the Prophet (SAW) said to him,
“Look at her. That would strengthen your love for one another”.
[Tirmidhi 1089, Ahmed 18160, Nisai 3237, Ibn e Majah 1865]
In the above hadith, the prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was ensuring that the sahabahs had
chemistry, which is why he instructed them to go see the women face to face.
Chemistry means the physical attraction.
Faskh is annulment, which is when you divorce your husband because of his evil character.
Khula is when you divorce your husband because there is no chemistry.
With the khula you have to return the dowry. With faskh you get the dowry back.
Jamilah (sister of ‘Abdullah ibn Ubayy), came to the Prophet (SAW) and said: “O Messenger of
Allah (SAW), I have nothing against Thabit ibn Qays as regards his religion or his behavior, but I
hate to commit any act of kufr when I am a Muslim. The Prophet (SAW) said: “Will you give his
garden back to him?” - her mahr had been a garden. She said, “Yes.” So the Messenger of Allah
(SAW) sent word to him: “Take back your garden, and give her one pronouncement of divorce.” 3
3.
{Fath al-Bari, 9/395, Kitab al-talaq, bab al-khul'}

The above mentioned hadith means that the woman loved her husband spiritually, but did not love him
physically.
This is why the prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) told the husband to divorce his wife with one
pronouncement. So the prophet carried out a khula in the above hadith.
Because the wife did not love her husband physically.
4) - DIVINE LOVES
Divine love is the love that Allah (SWT) has for His righteous servants.
Surely Allah loves Al- Mattaqun (the pious - see V.2:2).
(At-Tawbah 9:4)
5) UNCONDITIONAL LOVES
It’s to say to a person "I don’t care if you are a Muslim, Christian, atheist, I love you because you are my
child". This type of love is Haraam.
You are only allowed to love Allah SWT, His messengers, and sahabas unconditionally.
We don’t believe in unconditional love.
But not an ordinary Muslim.
We love you if you love Allah (SWT) and hate you if you hate Allah (SWT).
This type of love #5 is in conflict with Al wala wal Bara; because of that unconditional love is Haraam love.
written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with Ruh (proofs, light and true guidance)
from Himself. And We will admit them to Gardens (Paradise) under which rivers flow, to dwell
therein (forever). Allah is pleased with them, and they with Him. They are the Party of Allah. Verily,
it is the Party of Allah that will be the successful.
You put a condition on your love.
6) TAINTED LOVES
When the love is mixed with something which is not pure.
So if a woman loves her husband but at the same time she has love for another man, she gave her
husband tainted love.
If you love your husband but also love a boyfriend, its an example of tainted love.
The virgins of paradise, they love they give to their husband is pure not tainted.
The women who live in Darul al Harb, they have a husband and a lover.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Ar Rahman verse 56.
Wherein both will be those (maidens) restraining their glances upon their husbands, whom no
man or jinn yatmithhunna (has opened their hymens with sexual intercourse) before them.
(Ar-Rahman 55:56)
80% of women who live in darul al harb, they cheat.
The virgins of paradise don’t even look at another man.
If you have a wife in the dunya, she doesn't look at another man, she doesn't chat up another man, her
love is pure and it is not tainted.
So you should keep that wife, don’t divorce her.
Polygamy is halal, so don't compare tainted love with polygamy.
Allah (SWT) is All wise.
If you understand Tawheed asma wa sifat, you will accept polygamy gracefully.
But if you have disease of hypocrisy, you will never accept polygamy gracefully.
In Afghanistan, since 1979 they haven’t seen one day of peace for 35 years.
Imagine how many men who died in that country, how can you frown on polygamy.
Iraq has not seen peace as well.
One of the signs of the last days is that for every man will be 50 women because of killing will be rife.
Narrated Anas: I will narrate to you a Hadith and none other than I will tell you about after it. I
heard Allah's Messenger (‫ )ﷺ‬saying: From among the portents of the Hour are (the following): 4.
Women will increase in number and men will decrease in number so much so that fifty women will
be looked after by one man
[Sahih al-Bukhari Book 3, Hadith 23]
8) THE INSTINCT TO IMMITATE ONES PARENTS
Shaitan manipulates this instinct to the extent where you become loyal to a fault.
Some people when they are invited to Tawheed, they want to practice what their parents practiced, even
if their parents were pagans.
Allah said in the Qur'an surah Al Baqarah verse 170
When it is said to them: "Follow what Allah has sent down." They say: "Nay! We shall follow what
we found our fathers following." (Would they do that!) Even though their fathers did not
understand anything nor were they guided?
(Al-Baqarah 2:170)
People remain Barelvis, Shias, etc because they are loyal to their parents.
The Barelvis of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
You’re not allowed to follow parents, you should follow Quran and Sunnah.
Some parents are Shias, they even cut their children on 10th of Muharram.
Some parents are grave worshippers.

Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Luqman verse 14 to 15
And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in
weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years give
thanks to Me and to your parents, unto Me is the final destination. But if they (both) strive with you
to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them
not, but behave with them in the world kindly, and follow the path of him who turns to Me in
repentance and in obedience. Then to Me will be your return, and I shall tell you what you used to
do.
(Luqman 31:14-15)
Do not allow shaitan to manipulate you, he knows its your natural instinct to follow parents, he uses that
to make you die as kafir.
You should be dutiful to your parents, but do not obey them unconditionally.
The first word revealed to the prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was Iqra (read) so we do things by the
book.
#9 THE INSTINCT TO LOVE CHILDREN
Allah (SWT) gave us this instinct so the human race would not become instinct you are not a woman
unless you give birth.
Allah (SWT) said in the Qur'an surah Al Imran verse 14
Beautified for men is the love of things they covet; women, children, much of gold and silver
(wealth), branded beautiful horses, cattle and well-tilled land. This is the pleasure of the present
world's life; but Allah has the excellent return (Paradise with flowing rivers, etc.) with Him.
(Aali Imran 3:14)
The four special women of paradise: 1- Asia the wife of the Pharaoh, Maryam mother of Jesus (AS),
Khadija (RAA) wife of Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), Fatima the daughter of
Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
They all gave birth.
In Jamaica, if you don't give birth they call them mule.

Allah (SWT) gave you your womb for a purpose.
When you see Dajjal women in America who live all their lives on tablets for birth control, they are not real
women.
Marry women who are loving and affectionate to their husbands, what have you done for the Ummah?
Did you increase the Ummah?
Even when you have a child and he died before puberty, he can intercede for you.
The Prophet said: “Marry women who are loving and affectionate. Woman who are able to have
children because it is by these women that my followers will supersede the followers of the other
prophets in number on the Day of Judgment”.
(Sunnan Abu Dawud English trans. Vol.2 pg.545 No.2046)
If you don’t love these things something is wrong with you : women, children, cattle horses it’s your
natural instinct.
And know that your possessions and your children are but a trial and that surely with Allah is a
mighty reward.
(Al-Anfal 8:2)
Sometimes your kids make you become coward you don’t want to go for jihaad, some times they make
you become stingy, and you don’t want to give sadaqa.
A'ishah, once when a child was brought to the Prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), he fondled him
and said, 'These children make cowards and misers of the parents. And they are the flowers of the
Almighty.'<< NO TAKHREEJ
The Holy Prophet said: Your children at times make you become tight-fisted and cowards”.
(Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal vol.4 pg.172)
#10 THE INSTINCT TO BE INQUISITIVE AND LOVE KNOWLEDGE
Allah (SWT) gave us this instinct so that some of us can become great scholars.
Ulamah like Abu Hanifa (RA), Malik (RA), Shafi (RA), Ahmad Ibn Hanbal (RA).
Abu Hanifa (RA) has about 500 million followers.
Pakistan, India, Bangladesh is mostly Hanafi.
The most Jews in the world is about 10 million.
One scholar from the Ummah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) has more followers than Moses
(AS).
Don’t underestimate the power of Ummah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
Imam Shafi (RA) alone has more followers than Musa (AS).
The whole of Indonesia, Somalia, and Indonesia is Shafi (RA).
One alim/shaikh from Ummah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) has more followers than a
prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
Don't take the Ummah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) for granted.
Even the Malikis, the whole of Nigeria is Maliki; Morocco Tunusia, Mauritania, Algeria, they are all Malikis.
Malikis: 400 million Muslims.
80 million Muslims in Algeria.
Imam Maliki (RA) alone has more followers than Musa (Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
The whole of West Africa is Maliki, Senegal, Guini, Burkina Faso, Mali.
Allah (SWT) gave us this scholar so we can become great scholars.
Musa (AS) travelled far to al Khidr, he was acting according to his instinct.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Kahf verse 66 to 69.
Musa (Moses) said to him (Khidr) "May I follow you so that you teach me something of that
knowledge (guidance and true path) which you have been taught (by Allah)?" He (Khidr) said:
"Verily! You will not be able to have patience with me! "And how can you have patience about a
thing which you know not?" Musa (Moses) said: "If Allah will, you will find me patient, and I will
not disobey you in aught."
(Al-Kahf 18:66-69)
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mujadilah verse 11.
O you who believe! When you are told to make room in the assemblies, (spread out and) make
room. Allah will give you (ample) room (from His Mercy). And when you are told to rise up [for
prayers, Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's Cause), or for any other good deed], rise up. Allah will exalt
in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge. And Allah is
Well-Acquainted with what you do.
Allah (SWT) gave us this instinct for us to become great scholars.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Az Zumar verse 9
Say: "Are those who know equal to those who know not?" It is only men of understanding who
will remember (i.e. get a lesson from Allah's Signs and Verses).
(Az-Zumar 39:9)
#11 TO FEEL JEALOUSY OVER YOUR WIFE, DAUGHTERS AND OTHER MUSLIM WOMEN
This instinct is called ghaira (jealousy).
A Muslim is jealous over all Muslim women.
He doesn't want to see a kafir messing about with Muslim girls.
A Muslim man killed a kafir because he was messing with Muslim women (he was a pimp).
A real Muslim is jealous over every single Muslim woman.
If you have no Ghaira, you will never enter paradise.
Narrated By Abu Huraira: The Prophet; said, “Indeed, Allah has Ghayrah, and the faithful believer
has Ghayrah, and the Ghayrah which Allah has is provoked when a believer commits that which
Allah has forbidden.”
If you have no Ghaira, you are a dayooth.
Abdullah ibn Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Three people will not enter
paradise and Allah will not look to them on the Day of Judgment: the one who is disobedient to
his parents, the woman who imitates men and the ad-Dayooth (cuckold, weak man who feels no
jealousy over his womenfolk)..."
[Musnad Ahmad (2/134) No. 6180, Musnad al-Bazzar (12/270) No. 6051, al-Sunnan al-Kubra al-
Nasa'i (2/63) No. 2354, al-Mu’jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani (3/51) No. 2443]
Dayooth, a man who allows his wife and daughter to become corrupted in front of his eyes and he turns a
blind eye.
#12 TO DEFEND YOURSELF
Allah (SWT) prescribed Jihad to defend yourself.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baqarah verse 216
may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for
you. Allah knows but you do not know.
(Al-Baqarah 2:216)
You need to use Jihad to defend yourself, fighting is prescribed for you.
According to law of nature there is a thing called Qaanoon ad daf3.
This is to resist to exist.
Qaanoon means law.
And if Allah did not check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of
mischief. But Allah is full of Bounty to the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
(Al-Baqarah 2:251)
If the Kuffar knows you have rockets that can flatten his city, he wont attack your city.
Obama wanted to go into syria and the Russians and Chinese said "Syria is not like Iraq" so he backed
down.
When Bush was in power, Putin invaded Georgia and Bush could not do anything about it.
You say Obama was weak, yet when Bush was in power, Putin invaded Georgia and couldn't stop it.
Now Obama is in power, Putin took Crimea, Obama could do nothing.
One nation is checked by another nation.
If Russia and China did not unite as one single Bloc, America would have been a rogue state invading
every country in the world.
But they prevented America from invading Syria.
Obama had to stay out of Syria.
This principle is called Qanoon ad Daf3, the law of repelling.
India wanted to invade Pakistan, when Pakistan acquired nuclear bomb, they didnt want to invade
anymore.
Otherwise India would have walked over Pakistan.
One nation is used to contain other nations.
#13 THE INSTINCT TO LOVE WEALTH
Allah (SWT) made trading Halal and Riba' haram.
Communism failed because it went against the natural instinct of man.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baraqah verse 275.
That is because they say: "Trading is only like Riba (usury)," whereas Allah has permitted trading
and forbidden Riba (usury).
(Al-Baqarah 2:275)
Its modern day slavery.
Allah (SWT) has permitted trading, the market economy.
"This shop, market, etc is mine" because you want to progress this causes the economy to grow.
Otherwise the economy would grind to a halt.
Communism went against natural instinct in other fronts as well, spiritually, socially
don't forget your portion of the dunya.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Qasas verse 77
you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidun (those who commit
great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupts).
(Al-Qasas 28:77)
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Baqarah verse 26.
and Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower.
(Al-Baqarah 2:26)
Shaitan uses poverty as a weapon, there is no good in it.
In many countries like India, Pakistan, Morocco, there are Muslim prostitutes because of poverty.
Umar ibn al Khattab (RA) said "if poverty was a man I would have killed him with my own hands"
Anas Ibn Malik narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Poverty, in all probability, leads to
unbelief (kufr)...”
[Al-Bayhaqi narrated in 'Shu’ab al-Eemaan' (9/12) No. 6188 and Abu Na'eem narrated in 'Hileeyat
al-Awwleeyah' (3/109)]
Poverty leads to Kufr.
You can’t make takfir on Muslim prostitutes because zina is not major kufr.
It’s not their fault, there is no Zakah system to look after them.
#14 THE INSTINCT TO LOVE DELICIOUS FOOD AND DRINK
When there was no Caliph, the first thing the Muslims stopped was Zakah.
Shaitan uses this instinct against you, and turns you into a person who practice gluttony.
Ibn Umar (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, “The believer eats in one intestine, while the
disbeliever eats in seven intestines.’
The munafiq eats with seven intestines.
The fattest country in the world is USA, the fattest in Europe is UK.
Some people are clinically or morbidly obese.
Morbidly means eating yourself to death.
East Sussex in UK, the police had to arrest a man and take him to custody, because he was eating
himself to death.
http://news.sky.com/story/343984/man-who-could-eat-himself-to-death
HALF TON MAN http://www.channel4.com/programmes/bodyshock/4od
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Muhammad verse 12
Certainly! Allah will admit those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) and do
righteous good deeds, to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), while those who disbelieve
enjoy themselves and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their abode.
(Muhammad 47:12)
The Kuffar eat like cattle, this is why obesity is rife.
#15 THE INSTINCT TO TAKE REVENGE
And there is (a saving of) life for you in Al-Qisas (the Law of Equality in punishment), O men of
understanding, that you may become Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2)
(Al-Baqarah 2:179)
Qisas means capital punishment.
Allah (SWT) gave us this instinct to preserve life.
#16 TO COVER YOUR NAKEDNESS
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Araf verse 22
So he misled them with deception. Then when they tasted of the tree, that which was hidden from
them of their shame (private parts) became manifest to them and they began to stick together the
leaves of Paradise over themselves (in order to cover their shame). And their Lord called out to
them (saying) : "Did I not forbid you that tree and tell you: Verily, Shaitan (Satan) is an open
enemy unto you?"
(Al-A'raf 7:22)
It’s your natural instinct to cover your private parts.
Adam (AS) and Eve instinctively covered their privates.
Report of Abu Horarari (RA) the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“During the last days of my ummah there will be women who are clothed but naked, with
something on their heads like the humps of camels. Curse them, for they are cursed.” Another
hadeeth adds: “They will not enter Paradise or even smell its fragrance, although its fragrance can
be detected from such and such a distance.”
(Narrated by Muslim)
In a society where people do not cover their Aura, this is against the natural instinct.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al A'raf verse 27
O Children of Adam! Let not Shaitan (Satan) deceive you, as he got your parents [Adam and
Hawwa (Eve)] out of Paradise, stripping them of their raiments, to show them their private parts.
Verily, he and Qabiluhu (his soldiers from the jinns or his tribe) see you from where you cannot
see them. Verily, We made the Shayatin (devils) Auliya' (protectors and helpers) for those who
believe not.
(Al-A'raf 7:27)
The human shayateen like to look at private parts of people.
They corrupt what is pure.
They even have child prostitution.
17 THE INSTINCT TO LOVE AND HATE FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH (SWT)
This instinct comes naturally when you are a believer.
When you are a believer, you don’t have to make an effort to practice Al wala Wal bara.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Al Mujadilah verse 22.
written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with Ruh (proofs, light and true guidance)
from Himself. And We will admit them to Gardens (Paradise) under which rivers flow, to dwell
therein (forever). Allah is pleased with them, and they with Him. They are the Party of Allah. Verily,
it is the Party of Allah that will be the successful.
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: The Prophet (SAW) said, "There are three qualities whoever has
them, will taste the sweetness of Iman (faith): To love Allah and His Messenger (SAW) more than
anyone else; to love a slave (of Allah) only for (the sake of) Allah; and to abhor returning to
infidelity after Allah has saved him from it as he would abhor to be thrown into the fire (of Hell)."
If you have the above qualities you have the sweetness of iman.
The last (17th) is different in that its acquired when you are a believer.

What is the first of the scholastic questions?
1) WHO IS THE ONE WHO DOESN'T ACCEPT A SECOND?
Answer: Allah (SWT)
Allah (SWT) spoke about his oneness in the Quran, surah An Anbiya verse 22:
Had there been therein (in the heavens and the earth) gods besides Allah, then verily both would
have been ruined. Glorified be Allah, the Lord of the Throne, (High is He) above what they attribute
to Him!
(Al-Anbiya 21:22)
Allah (SWT) has no associates.
Muadh Ibn Jabal (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah ((Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)) said: "He
whose last words (in life) were 'La ilaha-ill Allah' (None has the right to be worshipped but Allah)
shall enter Paradise”
[Sunan Abu Dawud (2/207) No. 3116, Musnad al-Bazzar (7/77) No. 2626, Tabarani in ‘al-Mu’jam al-
Kabir’ (20/112) No. 221, Mustadrak al-Hakim (1/503) No. 1299]
The person who dies with laa ilaha illah as their last words will go to paradise.
‫ وإﻻ ﻟم ﯾﻔﺗﺢ ﻟك‬،‫ ﻓﺈن ﺟﺋت ﺑﻣﻔﺗﺎح ﻟﮫ أﺳﻧﺎن ﻓﺗﺢ ﻟك‬،‫ وﻟﻛن ﻟﯾس ﻣﻔﺗﺎح إﻻ ﻟﮫ أﺳﻧﺎن‬،‫ ﺑﻠﻰ‬:‫ أﻟﯾس ﻻ إﻟﮫ إﻻ ﷲ ﻣﻔﺗﺎح اﻟﺟﻧﺔ؟ ﻗﺎل‬:‫وﻗﯾل ﻟوھب ﺑن ﻣﻧﺑﮫ‬
Wahb ibn Munabbih was once asked, "Isn't the statement of la ilaha illa-llah the key to Paradise?"
He answered, "Yes, but every key has ridges. If you come with the key that has the right ridges,
the door will open for you. Yet if you do not have the right ridges the door will not open for you.”
[Sahih Bukhari, (2/71), al-Asma' wa al-Sifat al-Bayhaqi (1/274), Hilyatul-Awliya Abu-Naeem al-
Asbahani (4/66)]
You have to have enough ridges on your key to enter paradise.
Allah (SWT) does not accept a second.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Al Muminun verse 91:
No son (or offspring or children) did Allah beget, nor is there any ilah (god) along with Him; (if
there had been many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and
some would have tried to overcome others! Glorified be Allah above all that they attribute to Him!
(Al-Mu'minun 23:91)
If there were many gods, there would be many dispute and fight amongst each other.
For example, one god may say that I created the sun so I am taking it away.
So each god would take away what it created.
When there is a dispute, who will back down? God doesn't back down.
So this would have resulted in total chaos.
2) WHAT ARE THE TWO THAT HAS NO THIRD?
Answer: the night and the day.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah An Imran verse 190-191
Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there
are indeed signs for men of understanding. Those who remember Allah (always, and in prayers)
standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the
heavens and the earth, (saying) : "Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory
to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners). Give us salvation from
the torment of the Fire.
(Aali Imran 3:190-191)
We see the night and the day everyday; this is a great sign of the creation of Allah (SWT).
These ayah are used as hujjah against the atheist.
The day and night are well balanced.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah An Naba verse 10 to 11:
And have made the night as a covering (through its darkness), And have made the day for
livelihood.
(An-Naba 78:10-11)
We don't have 1000 days of night or day.
There is a systematic alternation between the day and night.
3) WHAT ARE THE THREE THAT HAS NO FOURTH?
Answer: The three incidences that took place between Musa (AS) and Khidr (AS).
Musa (AS) thought he had the most knowledge.
However, Allah (SWT) said Khidr (AS) has more knowledge than you do.
So Musa (AS) met up with Khidr (AS) to learn from him.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Al Kahf verse 66 to 70:
Musa (Moses) said to him (Khidr) "May I follow you so that you teach me something of that
knowledge (guidance and true path) which you have been taught (by Allah)?" He (Khidr) said:
"Verily! You will not be able to have patience with me!"And how can you have patience about a
thing which you know not?"Musa (Moses) said: "If Allah will, you will find me patient, and I will not
disobey you in aught. He (Khidr) said: "Then, if you follow me, ask me not about anything till I
myself mention it to you."
(Al-Kahf 18:66-70)
MUSA AND KHADIR
Narrated By Ubai bin Ka'b: The Prophet said, "Once the Prophet Moses stood up and addressed
Bani Israel. He was asked, "Who is the most learned man amongst the people. He said, "I am the
most learned." Allah admonished Moses as he did not attribute absolute knowledge to Him
(Allah). So Allah inspired to him "At the junction of the two seas there is a slave amongst my
slaves who is more learned than you." Moses said, "O my Lord! How can I meet him?" Allah said:
Take a fish in a large basket (and proceed) and you will find him at the place where you will lose
the fish. So Moses set out along with his (servant) boy, Yusha' bin Nuin and carried a fish in a
large basket till they reached a rock, where they laid their heads (i.e. lay down) and slept.
So it was an amazing thing for both Moses and his (servant) boy. They proceeded for the rest of
that night and the following day. When the day broke, Moses said to his (servant) boy: "Bring us
our early meal. No doubt, we have suffered much fatigue in this journey.
" Moses did not get tired till he passed the place about which he was told. There the (servant) boy
told Moses, "Do you remember when we betook ourselves to the rock, I indeed forgot the fish."
Moses remarked, "That is what we have been seeking.
So they went back retracing their footsteps, till they reached the rock. There they saw a man
covered with a garment (or covering himself with his own garment).
Moses greeted him. Al-Khadir replied saying, "How do people greet each other in your land?"
Moses said, "I am Moses." He asked, "The Moses of Bani Israel?" Moses replied in the affirmative
and added, "May I follow you so that you teach me of that knowledge which you have been
taught." Al-Khadir replied, "Verily! You will not be able to remain patient with me, O Moses! I have
some of the knowledge of Allah which He has taught me and which you do not know while you
have some knowledge which Allah has taught you which I do not know." Moses said, "Allah
willing, you will find me patient and I will not disobey you in aught. So both of them set out
walking along the sea-shore, as they did not have a boat.
In the meantime a boat passed by them and they requested the crew of the boat to take them on
board. The crew recognized Al-Khadir and took them on board without fare.
Then a sparrow came and stood on the edge of the boat and dipped its beak once or twice in the
sea. Al-Khadir said: "O Moses! My knowledge and your knowledge have not decreased Allah's
knowledge except as much as this sparrow has decreased the water of the sea with its beak."
Al-Kha,dir replied, "Did I not tell you that you cannot remain patient with me?" Then they both
proceeded till when they came to the people of a town, they asked them for food, but they refused
to entertain them. Then they found there a wall on the point of collapsing. Al-Khadir repaired it
with his own hands. Moses said,
If you had wished, surely you could have taken wages for it." Al-Khadir replied, "This is the
parting between you and me." The Prophet added, "May Allah be Merciful to Moses! Would that he
could have been more patient to learn more about his story with Al-Khadir."
4) What are the four things that has no fifth?
Answer: The Zabur, the Torah, the Injeel, and the Quran.
Now, you might ask the why the ulama didn't mention the book of Abraham (AS).
Because that book fell into oblivion.
There is no sign of that book anymore.
As for the Quran, there is no book after it.
It was reported that the Prophet (SAW) became angry when he saw that ‘Umar had a page with
something from the Torah written on it, and he (SAW) said: “Are you in doubt, O son of al-
Khattab? Have I not brought you something shining and pure? If my brother Musa were alive, he
would have no choice but to follow me.”
[Musnad Ahmad (3/387) No. 15195 and Sunan al-Darime (1/126) No. 435]
Since there is no book after the Quran, Allah (SWT) promised to protect the Quran.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Al Hijr verse 9:
Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur'an) and surely, We will guard it
(from corruption).
(Al-Hijr 15:9)
The previous book are abrogated so there is no reason to protect them.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Fussilat verse 42:
Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of
all praise (Allah).
(Fussilat 41:42)
5) WHAT ARE THE FIVE THINGS THAT HAS NO SIXTH?
Answer: Our five daily prayers.
A man asked the holy prophet (saws), do u think if I perform the obligatory prayers, fast in Ramadan, treat
as lawful what is lawful and treat as haram whats haram and didn't add anything else I would go to
jannah? The prophet (saws) replied “yes”.
On the authority of Abee Abdillaah Jaabir ibn Abdillaah al-Ansaaree (may Allaah be pleased with
both of them) who said: “A man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him),
“Tell me if I were to perform the obligatory [prayers], fast in Ramadhaan, treat the lawful as
permissible and treat the forbidden as unlawful and I do not add anything to that, would I enter
Paradise?” He [the Prophet] answered “Yes”.
(Recorded by Muslim)
6) WHAT ARE THE SIX THINGS THAT HAS NO SEVENTH?
Answer: The Six days Allah (SWT) used to create the universe and the havens.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Qaf verse 38
And indeed We created the heavens and the earth and all between them in six Days and nothing of
fatigue touched Us.
(Qaf 50:38)
The Christians make many accusations against Allah (SWT).
It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the Lord made heaven
and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
[Exodus 31:17]
They accuse Him of committing suicide on the cross.
They accuse Him of being tired after creating the universe and many more claims.
So how come they are allowed to live in the Islamic land?
Because when Jesus (AS) comes back, he will abolish the jizya.
7) WHAT ARE THE SEVEN THINGS THAT HAS NO EIGTH?
Answer: The seven heavens.
Allah (SWT) said in the surah Al Mulk verse 1 to 3
Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion, and He is Able to do all things. Who has created
death and life, that He may test you which of you is best in deed. And He is the All-Mighty, the Oft-
Forgiving; Who has created the seven heavens one above another, you can see no fault in the
creations of the Most Beneficent. Then look again: "Can you see any rifts?"
(Al-Mulk 67:1-3)
8 ) WHAT ARE THE EIGHT THINGS THAT HAS NO NINTH?
Answer: The eighth angels that will carry the throne of Allah (SWT) on the Day of Judgement.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah Al Haqqah verse 17:
And the angels will be on its sides, and eight angels will, that Day, bear the Throne of your Lord
above them.
(Al-Haqqah 69:17)
The ulama use this ayah against those who claim that the arsh of Allah (SWT) is an abstract.
Narrated Abu Said: The Prophet said, 'People will be struck unconscious on the Day of
Resurrection and I will be the first to regain consciousness, and behold! There I will see Moses
holding one of the pillars of Allah's Throne. I will wonder whether he has become conscious
before me of he has been exempted, because of his unconsciousness at the Tur (mountain) which
he received (on the earth)."
[Sahih Bukhari (4/153) No. 3398]
The arsh of Allah (SWT) is a concrete noun.
On the authority of Masruq who said: We asked 'Abdullah about the Qur'anic verse: “Think not of
those who are killed in the Way of Allah as dead. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have
provision.” (Aali Imran 3:169). He said: We asked the meaning of the verse (from the Holy Prophet)
who said: "The souls of the martyrs live in the bodies of green birds who have their nests in
chandeliers hung from the throne of the Almighty. They eat the fruits of Paradise wherever they
like and then nestle in these chandeliers. Once, their Lord cast a glance at them and said: "Do you
want anything?" They said: "What more can we desire? We eat the fruit of Paradise wherever we
like." Their Lord asked them the same question thrice. When they saw that they would be
continued to be asked and not left (without answering the question), they said: "O Lord, we wish
that You may return our souls to our bodies so that we may be slain in Your cause once again.
When He (Allah) saw that they had no need, they were left (to their joy in Heaven)."
9) What are the nine things that has no tenth?
Answer: The nine signs that Allah (SWT) gave to Musa (AS) to take to the Pharaoh.
"And what is that in your right hand, O Musa (Moses)?"He said: "This is my stick, whereon I lean,
and wherewith I beat down branches for my sheep, and wherein I find other uses.(Allah) said:
"Cast it down, O Musa (Moses)!"He cast it down, and behold! It was a snake, moving quickly Allah
said:" Grasp it, and fear not, We shall return it to its former state, "And press your (right) hand to
your (left) side, it will come forth white (and shining), without any disease as another sign, That
We may show you (some) of Our Greater Signs "Go to Fir'aun (Pharaoh)! Verily, he has
transgressed (all bounds in disbelief and disobedience, and has behaved as an arrogant, and as a
tyrant)."
(Ta-Ha 20:17-24)
WHAT ARE THE NINE SIGNS GIVEN TO MUSA?
1- The radiant hand
2- The rod
3- The famine
4- The flood
5- The human and animal pandemic
6- The lice
7- The frog
8- The locus
9- The blood (river Nile became blood)
Ibn ‘Abbas, Mujahid, ‘Ikrimah, Ash-Sha’bi and Qatadah said: "They are his hand, his staff, the
years of famine, the failure of the crops, the flood, the locusts, the lice, the frogs and the blood.''
[Tafseer Ibn Katheer (5/124)]
The Pharaoh saw these sign and turned to Musa (AS) to pray to his Lord to remove this suffering.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Al A'raf verse 134 to 135
And when the punishment fell on them, they said: "O Musa (Moses)! Invoke your Lord for us
because of His Promise to you. If you will remove the punishment from us, we indeed shall believe
in you, and we shall let the Children of Israel go with you." (But when We removed the punishment
from them to a fixed term, which they had to reach, behold! They broke their word!
(Al-A'raf 7:134-135)
10) WHAT ARE THE TEN THINGS THAT WILL ACCEPT AN INCREASE?
Answer: Our pious deeds.
Allah (SWT) Said in the Quran Surah Al An'am verse 160:
Whoever brings a good deed (Islamic Monotheism and deeds of obedience to Allah and His
Messenger SAW) shall have ten times the like thereof to his credit, and whoever brings an evil
deed (polytheism, disbelief, hypocrisy, and deeds of disobedience to Allah and His Messenger
SAW) shall have only the recompense of the like thereof, and they will not be wronged.
(Al-An'am 6:160)
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (RA), from the Messenger of Allah (SAW), from what he has related
from his Lord: Verily Allah ta’ala has written down the good deeds and the evil deeds, and then
explained it [by saying]: "Whosoever intended to perform a good deed, but did not do it, then
Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. And if he intended to perform it and
then did perform it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds up to seven
hundred times, up to many times multiplied. And if he intended to perform an evil deed, but did
not do it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. And if he intended it
[i.e., the evil deed] and then performed it, then Allah writes it down as one evil deed."
[related by al-Bukhari (6491) and Muslim (131)]
11) Who are the eleven brothers?
Answer: The eleven of Yusuf (AS).
12) WHICH MIRACLE CONTAINS 12 THINGS?
Answer: The 12 streams of Bani Israel.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah AL Baqarah verse 60:
And (remember) when Musa (Moses) asked for water for his people, We said: "Strike the stone
with your stick." Then gushed forth there from twelve springs. Each (group of) people knew its
own place for water. "Eat and drink of that which Allah has provided and do not act corruptly,
making mischief on the earth."
(Al-Baqarah 2:60)
Israel has 12 tribes (the 12 sons of Jacob (AS)).
13) WHO WAS THE FAMILY OF THIRTEEN?
Answer: The family of Yusuf (AS) including his parents and his siblings.
(Remember) when Yusuf (Joseph) said to his father: "O my father! Verily, I saw (in a dream) eleven
stars and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating themselves to me."
(Yusuf 12:4)
The sun in the above ayah is the mother.

The moon is the father.
14) WHAT ARE THE FOURTEEN THINGS THAT SPOKE TO ALLAH?
Answer: The seven havens and the seven earth's.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Fussilat verse 11
Then He Istawa (rose over) towards the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth:
"Come both of you willingly or unwillingly." They both said: "We come, willingly."
(Fussilat 41:11)
15) WHAT IS IT THAT BREATHES YET IT HAS NO SOUL?
Answer: The dawn, the morning.
And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness (At-Takwir 81:18) Yusuf Ali
And the breath of morning (At-Takwir 81:18) Pickthall
16) WHY SOMETIME THE BABY RESEMBLES THE MOTHER AND SOMETIME THE FATHER?
Answer: Who so ever ejaculate first, the baby shall resemble that parent.
Narrated Anas: The Prophet said,...As for the child, if the man's discharge precedes the woman's
discharge, the child attracts the similarity to the man, and if the woman's discharge precedes the
man's, then the child attracts the similarity to the woman." [Bukhari Vol: 5 Book 58 Hadith 275]
17) WHAT IS THE FIRST FOOD FOR THE PEOPLE OF PARADISE?
Answer: Whale meat.
Narrated Anas: The Prophet said, "As for the first sign of The Hour, it will be a fire that will collect
the people from the East to the West. As for the first meal, which the people of Paradise will eat, it
will be the caudate (extra) lobe of the fish-liver.
[Bukhari Vol: 5 Book 58 Hadith 275]
18) WHAT IS THE GRAVE THAT MOVES WITH ITS INHABITANT INSIDE?
Answer: Yunus (AS) in the belly of the whale.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah Al Anbiya verse 87
And (remember) Dhan-Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and imagined that We shall not
punish him (i.e. the calamites which had befallen him)! But he cried through the darkness (saying)
: La ilaha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshipped but You (O Allah)], Glorified (and Exalted)
are You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers."
(Al-Anbiya 21:87)
If he hadn't made that dua, Allah (SWT) would have kept him in the belly of the whale until the Day of
Judgement.
Abdullah Ibn Rafi', the freed slave of Umm Salamah said I heard Abu Hurayrah narrated the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “When Allah wanted to keep Yunus in the belly of the whale, He
revealed to the whale. He said, “Take him inside but do not eat his flesh nor break his bones.”
When the whale went down to the depth of the sea, Yunus heard a voice, he said to himself, “What
is this?” Then Allah revealed to him, while he was inside the whale’s belly, that it was glorification
of the sea animals. Then while in that state, Yunus also glorified Allah which was heard by the
angels. They then said, "O our Lord, we heard a very weak voice coming from unusual land.”
Allah said, “That is My slave Yunus, he disobeyed me, so I detained him inside a whale in the
sea.” They said, “Is he the pious slave from whom the good deeds ascended to You everyday and
night?” Allah replied, “Yes”. So the angels then pleaded on his behalf, so Allah ordered the whale
to throw him out on the shore.”
[Tafseer al-Tabari (18/518), Tafseer Ibn Abi Hatim (10/3227) No. 18278, Musnad al-Bazzar (15/34)
No. 8227 and Tafseer Ibn Katheer (5/367)]
They said, “Is he the pious slave from whom the good deeds ascended to You everyday and
night?” Allah replied, “Yes”. So the angels then pleaded on his behalf, so Allah ordered the
whale to throw him out on the shore.”
[Tafseer al-Tabari (18/518), Tafseer Ibn Abi Hatim (10/3227) No. 18278, Musnad al-Bazzar (15/34)
No. 8227 and Tafseer Ibn Katheer (5/367)]
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah As Saffat verse 144
Then a (big) fish swallowed him and he had done an act worthy of blame. Had he not been of them
who glorify Allāh, He would have indeed remained inside its belly (the fish) till the Day of
Resurrection.
(As-Saffat 37:144)
19) What is the thing Allah (SWT) created that the Quran labelled it as mighty?
Answer: The plot of women.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Yusuf verse 28
So when he (her husband) saw his [(Yusuf's (Joseph)] shirt torn at the back; (her husband) said:
"Surely, it is a plot of you women! Certainly mighty is your plot!
(Yusuf 12:28)
Usama Ibn Zayd (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “I have not left behind me any
fitnah (temptation) more harmful to men than women.”
[Reported by al-Bukhaari (5096) and Muslim (2740)]
Yusuf AS was a prophet, and a descendent of prophets, so his Lord saved him from committing
indecency and protected him from the evil plot of a woman. Yusuf AS is one of those who will be
shaded by Allah on the Day of Judgement. Prophet Muhammad SAW explained that the heat of the
Day of Judgment would be fierce, and people will be mingling with fear as they wait to be judged
by Allah. There will be however, certain categories of people shaded from this brutal heat. One of
them is a man who resisted the temptations of a beautiful, desirable woman by seeking refuge
with Allah.
(Bukhari)
Narrated Abu Sa'id al-Khudri: Once Allah's Messenger went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer)
on 'Eid-al-Adha or al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, "O women! Give alms,
as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)." They asked, "Why
is it so, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your
husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. A cautious
sensible man could be led astray by some of you." The women asked, "O Messenger of Allah!
What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?" He said, "Is not the evidence of two women
equal to the witness of one man?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency
in her intelligence. Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?" The
women replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her religion."
20) What thing Allah created yet He despise it?
Answer: The voice of the donkey.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah Luqman verse 19
"And be moderate (or show no insolence) in your walking, and lower your voice. Verily, the
harshest of all voices is the voice (braying) of the ass."
(Luqman 31:19)
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Prophet (SAW) said: 'When you hear a rooster crowing, then
ask Allah for His bounties, for it has seen an angel, and when you hear a donkey braying, then
seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, for it has seen a Shaitan'
[Sahih al-Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Sahih al-Jami #611]
21) WHAT ARE THE THINGS ALLAH CREATED WITH NO MOTHER AND FATHER?
Answer: The angels, Adam (AS), the she-camel of Salih (AS), and the lamb of Israel.
22) WHO LIED BUT STILL ENTERED THE PARADISE?
Answer: The eleven brothers of Yusuf (AS).
Allah (SWT) said in the Qurah Surah Yusuf verse 16-18:
And they came to their father in the early part of the night weeping. They said:"O our father! We
went racing with one another, and left Yusuf (Joseph) by our belongings and a wolf devoured him;
but you will never believe us even when we speak the truth. And they brought his shirt stained
with false blood. He said: "Nay, but your ownselves have made up a tale. So (for me) patience is
most fitting. And it is Allah (Alone) Whose help can be sought against that which you assert."
(Yusuf 12:16-18)
When Ayesha (RAA) was slandered, she recited the same ayah.
23) Who spoke the truth yet they both entered the Hellfire?
Answer: The Jews and the Christians.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah AL Baqarah verse 113:
The Jews said that the Christians follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); and the
Christians said that the Jews follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); though they both
recite the Scripture. Like unto their word, said (the pagans) who know not. Allah will judge
between them on the Day of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing.
(Al-Baqarah 2:113)
24) WHAT ARE THE FOUR THINGS ALLAH HAS CREATED WITH HIS OWN HANDS?
Answer: The arsh, the angels, Adam (AS), and Paradise.
Mujahid narrated Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) said: “Allah created four things with His Hand; 1. The
Throne 2. The Pen 3. Adam and 4. The paradise of ‘Adn. He then said to the rest of the creation
‘Kun’ [Be] and it was.”
[Adh Dhahabi in ‘Mukhtasar al-‘Uluw’ (p105), Abu al-Shaikh al-Asbahani in 'al-‘Adhuma' (5/1555),
Tafsir al-Tabari (21/239), ‘The chain is authentic according to the conditions of Muslim.’]
25) WHO WAS THE FIRST RACIST AND THE FIRST MU'TAZILA (A RATIONALIST)?
Answer: The Satan.
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran Surah Al A'raf:
(Allah) said: "What prevented you (O Iblis) that you did not prostrate, when I commanded you?"
Iblis said: "I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You created from clay."
(Al-A'raf 7:12)
Ibless did not bow down to Adam (AS) because he wasn't intellectually convinced.
And this bowing was not the bowing of worship but a bowing of respect.
In order for a Mu'taliza to worship Allah, he must be intellectually convinced.
26) WHO WERE THE FIRST TO USE QIYAAS (ANALOGY)?

Answer: The angels.
And (remember) when your Lord said to the angels: "Verily, I am going to place (mankind)
generations after generations on earth." They said: "Will You place therein those who will make
mischief therein and shed blood, - while we glorify You with praises and thanks (Exalted be You
above all that they associate with You as partners) and sanctify You." He (Allah) said: "I know that
which you do not know."
(Al-Baqarah 2:30)
The angels because they used qiyaas to say if Allah (SWT) gives mankind freewill then they would be
corrupt like the jinnkind.
27) WHAT FOUR THINGS OF JAHILLIYAH (IGNORANCE) THE UMMAH WILL NEVER GIVE UP?
“There are four matters of jaahiliyyah that exist among my ummah and they will not give them up:
boasting about one’s forefathers, casting aspersions upon people’s lineages, seeking rain by the
stars and wailing for the dead.”
[Sahîh Muslim (934)]
Answer: Above mentioned hadith.
28) WHAT BABIES SPOKE FROM THE CRADLE?
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah - may Allaah be pleased with him - who said that the Prophet
- ‫ ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯾﮫ وﺳﻠم‬- said: “None spoke in the cradle except three: ‘Eesa the son of Maryam, Jurayj’s
companion; Jurayj was a man of worship, he had a place of worship and while he was in it, his
mother came in and called upon him. He said to himself; ‘My Lord, my mother or my prayer?’
So he continued praying and she left. The next day she also came and called upon him while he
was in prayer, he said to himself; ‘My Lord, my mother or my prayer?’ So he continued praying
and again she left. The following day she came again and called upon him while he was in prayer,
he said to himself; ‘My Lord, my mother or my prayer?’ So he continued praying. She said: ‘O
Allaah, do not allow him to die until he sees the faces of prostitutes.’
The Children of Israel knew of Jurayj and his worship. There was a very beautiful prostitute who
offered to seduce him. She attempted to do so but he did not pay her any attention. She then
approached a herdsman who used to seek refuge in his place of worship, she offered herself to
him and he slept with her. She became pregnant, and when she gave birth, she claimed that it was
the child of Jurayj. They went to him, invoked curses over him, destroyed his place of worship
and attacked him. He said: ’Why are you doing this?’ They responded: ‘You fornicated with this
woman and she bore you a child.
He said: ‘Where is the child?’
So they brought him the child He said: ‘Leave me until I pray. When he finished praying he came
to the boy and poked him in his stomach. He said: ‘O child, who is your father? The baby boy
responded: ‘So and so the herdsman.’ So the people turned to Jurayj, kissing him and asking him
for forgiveness.
They offered to rebuild his place of worship in gold, but he refused and asked them to rebuild it
from mud just as it was before, and so they did.
1) There was also a baby who was being breast fed by his mother when a rider in fine garments
passed by on an agile animal His mother said: ‘O Allaah, make my child like him.’ The baby
stopped suckling and looked at him, he said: ‘O Allaah, do not make me like him. He then
continued suckling…”
Abu Hurayrah - May Allaah be pleased with him - said: ‘It is as if I can see Messenger of Allaah
- ‫ ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯾﮫ وﺳﻠم‬- right now, as he is illustrating the scene of the baby’s suckling with his forefinger
in his mouth.
He continued: "They passed by a slave girl who was being beaten by people who were accusing
her of committing fornication and theft.' She was saying: `Sufficient is Allaah is for me, and the
best of Guardians He is The mother said: Ò Allaah, do not make my child like her.' Again, the
baby stopped suckling, looked at her and said: ‘O Allaah! Make me like her.'
At this point, they spoke to each other, the mother said: À good looking man passed by and I
asked Allaah to make my child like him, you asked Allaah not make you like him. We passed by
this slave girl while she was being beaten and being accused of fornication and theft, I asked
Allaah not to make my child like her, and you asked Allaah to make you like her.'
The child said: `That man was a tyrant, so I asked Allaah not to make me like him. They were
accusing the girl of fornication, while she did not commit it, and they were accusing her of theft,
while she did not steal, so I asked Allaah to make me like her" [Collected by both al Bukhaaree
and Muslim.]
“None spoke while in the cradle except three: ‘Eesaa ibn Maryam, Yusuf’s companion, Jurayj’s
companion and the son of Pharaoh’s daughter’s hair brusher
[Al Albaanee stated in As Silsilah ad Da’eefah #880: - Parts of al Albaanee’s speech will be
summarized or omitted, such as the details of the defects of some chains and the Jarh and
Ta’deel concerning the narrators as it is extensive.]
Answer: The hadith mentioned above.
29) Which two prophets had a kafir for a wife?
Answer: Noah (AS) and Lut (AS).
Allah (SWT) said in the Quran surah At Tahrim verse 10:
Allah sets forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Nuh (Noah) and the wife of Lout
(Lot). They were under two of our righteous slaves, but they both betrayed their (husbands by
rejecting their doctrine) so they [Nuh (Noah) and Lout (Lot)] benefited them (their respective
wives) not, against Allah, and it was said: "Enter the Fire along with those who enter!"
(At-Tahrim 66:10)
30) WHICH CITY WILL BE THE PLACE OF GATHERING ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT?
Answer: Jerusalem.
Abu Dhar Al-Ghiffari said, "Messenger of Allah, which is better, the prayers in this mosque of
yours or the prayers in (the mosque) of Jerusalem?" The Prophet ~ said, "Prayers in my mosque
are better than four prayers in Jerusalem, though it is the best place to pray, for it is the land of
Resurrection. A time will come when if a man can see Jerusalem through the loop with which he
hangs his whip [i.e. it is very close to him], it will be better for him than all the pleasures of this
world."
Mtilaawiyah ibn Humaidah Al-Qushairee related that the Messenger of Allah 0, said, "They
will be gathered here — and he A signaled with his hand toward Ash-Sham — walking, riding,
and passing on their faces, and they will be displayed before Allah. And upon their mouths
will be Al-Fidaam (a covering, which in this instance is meant to prevent them from
speaking)."
(Ahmad)
The 31 Weaknesses of Mankind
THE 31 WEAKNESSES OF MANKIND
(evening dars: 9.29.11)
Download
Bismillah...
It’s in your favor to get rid of these weaknesses

-the people with these weaknesses: born alone, live alone, die alone
-they are not marriage material
THE 31 WEAKNESSES OF MANKIND
1. SHOWING OFF
-people like to show off, especially those with low self esteem
-and, whenever a person has a weakness of liking to show off,
-they cannot do things with sincerity of intention,
-they cannot do things for the sake of ALLAH
-they do things for fame and fortune
-you’re supposed to do good deeds to seek ALLAH's pleasure,
-but everything you do is to show off, not fisabilillah
-this is very sad, because you say ALHAMDULILLAHIRABBUL ALAMEEN
-ALL PRAISE IS FOR ALLAH LORD OF THE WORLDS
Whoever seeks knowledge to argue with the scholars, or to show off with the ignorant people, and
attracts the faces of the people towards him, Allah would enter him into the Hellfire." [Hasan -
Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah]
THREE MEN WILL BE DRAGGED ON THEIR FACES AND DUMPED INTO THE HELLFIRE
1. scholar (knowledge to show off)
2. mujahid (fought to show off)
3. spender (spent to show off)
So it is not permissible for you to seek knowledge with the wrong intention
FI SABIL ILL AH = the right intention
...Verily! Allah likes not those who are glad (with ungratefulness to Allah's Favours). (Al-Qasas
28:76)
WHEN YOU DO MARKETING IN UNIVERSITY,

-there’s a chapter called conspicuous consumption:
-buying materials to show off
-the western culture is geared towards showing off
-there is no humility in the west
-that’s why they have "designer clothing”
-there is a shoe in the US that starts at $5,000 US dollars
-they show off with cars, beautiful girls, they brag and boast about
-how many girls they seduce in their lifetime
-this is the western culture, all about showing off
-people think that people only show off with money,cars, big houses
-but NO, people show off with piety as well
-so don’t think that people only show off with material things
PEOPLE SHOW OFF WITH PIETY, and when they show off with piety
-they become extremists
-they want to say "no one can be as pious as me"
-and extremism is NOT allowed in Deen
-and these people who are extremists, they always apostate from Islam
-because they did not take the middle path in deen
-and the scholars of Islam use many ayats to refute the extremists
We have not sent down the Qur'an unto you (O Muhammad SAW) to cause you distress, (Ta-Ha
20:2)
-this is the surah that cause Umar to embrace Islam, it opened his heart
-and these people who are extremists, they always apostate from Islam,
-because they did not take the middle path in deen
-you should ALWAYS take the middle path in Deen
ALLAH SWT wants for you ease and comfort, ALLAH SWT does want for you difficulties
...Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you... (Al-Baqarah
2:185)
- the first weaknesses of mankind : they like to show off (especially those with low self esteem)
...Verily! Allah likes not those who are glad (with ungratefulness to Allah's Favours). (Al-Qasas
28:76)
Do you know why ALLAH SWT revealed this ayah? a man in the time of Musa was named Qaroon; ibn
Abbass said: he was a cousin of Musa; Qaroon would recite the Torah beautifully, and when he became
rich he became a munafiqh and left the religion
STORY CAN BE FOUND IN TAFSEER IBN KATHIR:

http://www.quran4u.com/Tafsir%20Ibn%20Kathir/028%20Qasas.htm#%D9%84%D9%8E%20%D8%A5%
D9%90%D9%86%D9%91%D9%8E%D9%85
-he was so rich that it took 60 horses

-to pull the KEYS to his treasures
-and the scholars in the community said to Qaroon:
-your wealth was given to you by a blessing of ALLAH, but it’s also a test
-so you need to pass the test by giving some of the money to poor people
-he said: no, I will not give my money to poor people
-and it’s NOT a blessing, I became wealthy
-because I am very intelligent
And Qaroon became jealous of Musa, he wanted the attention Musa was getting from the people and
Qaroon whenever he would come out of his house would show off his wealth in front of the people to
make people feel bad; the clothing he would dress were very expensive; he would come out of his house
displaying his wealth and his horses; the people who would : oh I wish I could like him (Qaroon) and when
Qaroon was told to give sadaqa, he declined to give sadaqa; he believed it was his individual effort that
caused him to be rich; he was jealous of Musa, and envied Musa -- he wished all the attention would be
on him even though he showed off with his wealth, the people still rallied behind Musa
Qaroon went to a woman and said : I will give you money if you tell the people Musa had an affair with
you; the woman took the money and she launched the accusation that she had an affair with Musa (a s);
and Musa said: who paid you to do this? and she named Qaroon; Musa went and prayed 2 rakat of salah.
And Musa raised his hands to ALLAH Swt and made a dua and he asked ALLAH SWT to destroy Qaroon
and, the specific dua was : OH ALLAH, make the earth swallow Qaroon -- the earth swallowed Qaroon up
to his ankle, then Musa made the dua : oh ALLAH make the earth swallow Qaroon up to his knees -- this
all took place in front of the people; Musa then said : OH ALLAH make the earth swallow him up to his
waist, and then his chest - then eventually all of Qaroon; Musa then made the dua : OH ALLAH make the
earth swallow up his wealth
The scholars of tafseer has said: right now Qaroon is sinking further and further into the earth on daily
basis; many of you think when you read the story of Qaroon (surah 28), you think the reason why the
earth swallowed him up because he showed off with his wealth -- that is NOT the reason why; the reason
why the earth swallowed him up because of the dua of Musa; the real reason : Qaroon paid a woman to
lie and accuse Musa of having an affair with him; Musa went to the woman and asked her who paid her,
and she told Musa it was Qaroon; this is proof that the prophets do not know the ghaib -- the unseen --
Musa said : WHO paid you to do it? So Qaroon showed enmity to Musa; Qaroon actually declared war on
ALLAH ; this is why the earth swallowed him up
EVERY PROPHET HAS AN ABU JAHL AND ABU LAHAB IN THEIR TIME
- ALLAH SWT answered the dua of Musa,
- and the earth swallowed Qaroon up in front of his own people
- because when you lie on a prophet, you lie on ALLAH
- and ALLAH SWT said:
- "anyone who declares enmity on a servant of mine,
- I declare war on that person "
'Whosoever acts with enmity towards a Friend of Mine, I will indeed declare war against
him"[Hadith Qudsi: Bukhari]
2. TO BE WASTEFUL WITH ALLAH'S BOUNTIES

- ( we have covered this dars before, but every dars is different)
- And ALLAH SWT said in surah 17:27
Verily, spendthrifts are brothers of the Shayatin (devils), and the Shaitan (Devil ¬ Satan) is ever
ungrateful to his Lord. (Al-Isra 17:27)
- mankind is very wasteful with ALLAH's bounties

- for example : a person who smokes cigs,
- or someone who smokes marijuana
- or crack cocaine
- this person is wasting wealth
- a smoker is wasting wealth
- how much for a pack of cigs in the UK? its at least 4 or 5 pounds for a pack
- the 5 pounds that you use to buy cigs ,
- is one weeks salary in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan!
- and you waste it by smoking it?
- if a person should take out 5 pounds on a daily basis and burns it up
- people will call this man a madman, an evil man
- so why don’t you say this about the smoker?
- the smoker is wasting his money
- the man who uses money to smoke crack cocaine : that’s more expensive than cigs
- and you’re not allowed to get married to a person who has a drug problem
- that person is a waste of space
- that person is a low life, scum of the earth and a waste of space
- NOT marriage material
- that’s how desperate you are? to marry a person on crack?
- if a person is on medication, because the doctor gave him/her medication
- then this is okay
- but NOT a person who is abusing drugs
- a person who is on drugs, that is the shaitan in human form
- womanizing and gambling are other ways to waste money
- a womanizer has no savings, because before these women go to bed with you,
- you have to spoil them rotten - you think they will go to bed with you for free?
- why don’t you get married to a woman and settle down?
- why sleep around and waste your money
- there is no such a thing as a free romance
- if you don’t give money to your wife money to go shopping for food,
- he has no sexual (conjugal rights )
- whether you’re in Islam or jahiliyya,
- there is NO such a thing as a free romance
- when you go to paradise, was it free? NO
- you perform salah, zakah, sawm , hajj, and jihad
- how did the mujahideen earn 72 virgins in paradise?
- because they sacrifice their lives on the battlefield
Verily, Allah has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs
shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allah's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a
promise in truth which is binding on Him in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the
Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah? Then rejoice in the bargain which you have
concluded. That is the supreme success. (At-Tawbah 9:111)
If you don’t give money to your wife money to go shopping for food,
-he has no sexual (conjugal rights):: this is Shariah
-how can you marry a gambler? every cent he has he wastes it in the casinos
-this person is a shaitan in human form
-there are many people in the world in their 60s and 70s who are begging
-why did they not use their youth to prepare for their old age?
-because they wasted their time
-that is another thing people waste: TIME
-when people ask you a question,
-you’re not allowed to beat around the bush
AMERICAN CULTURE : THEY TELL YOU IN YOUR FACE

- the British culture : beat around the bush, the stiff upper lip
- the Americans will tell you what they think in your face
- when you beat around the bush, you waste time
- if someone tells you: let’s open a business together
- and the person replies: I am sorry I don’t trust you
- in the same situation a British would say : let me think about it
- even after ten years the British is still thinking about it
- in this regards, the American way is better
O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allah and fear Him, and speak (always) the truth. (Al-Ahzab
33:70)
ALLAH SWT told us to speak straight to the point

- when you beat around the bush you’re wasting time
- you’re a woman, and man proposes to you,
- and you KNOW there is no chemistry
- so you say "we are not compatible" (American girl would say this)
- a British girl would say "let me think about it"
- so, time wasting is a weakness of mankind
- it’s wasting ALLAH's bounties
- they waste time, money, and youth
- ALLAH SWT will ask you regarding your money,
- how you earned it and how you spent it (al Hisaab)
- use your youth to prepare for your old age
- use your health to prepare for your sickness
- you use your life to prepare for your death
- and you use your dunya to prepare for the Hereafter
- THIS is how Muslims live
- so you, as a Muslim, are not allowed to waste
3. THEY LIKE TO BORROW AND THEY DON’T PAY IT BACK
“The one who borrows money with the intention to pay it back, Allah (SWT) will make a way for
him to pay back what he owes. And the one who borrows money with the intention not to pay it
back, Allah (SWT) will destroy him.” (Al-Bukhari, 2387)
It is amaana (trust) (when you borrow someone’s money)

- this is a weaknesses among people, and they like to target practicing Muslims; they think practicing
Muslims are naive and softhearted; example : you’re not a practicing Muslim , and you go to a Muslim to
borrow money? why don’t you go to your kaafir brother to borrow money ? because your kaafir brother is
broke, he is wasting money himself
The Prophet (PBUH) said: “The one who gets married with the intention not to pay dowry to his
wife is a fornicator. And the one who borrows money with the intention not to pay back is a thief.”
(Ibn Hiban, 2/270)
When you marry a girl and you did not pay her dowry, you’re a fornicator -- and if that girl raises her
hands and makes dua against you, YOU’RE FINISHED because she is oppressed
3 PEOPLE ALLAH ALWAYS ANSWERS THEIR DUA [see this hadith]:
In another hadith; The Prophet (SAW) declared: 'Three du'as are surely answered: The du'a of the
oppressed, the du'a of the traveler, and the du'a of the father/mother (upon their child)'. The One
who is suffering injustice is heard by Allah (SWT) when he invokes Allah (SWT) to retain his rights
from the unjust one or oppressor. [al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]
Shaikh Faisal’s advice : don’t lend what you can’t afford to lose
- because the majority of people do not want to pay you back --
- the longest ayat in the Quran : 2:282 is talking about money
- people are so corrupt, you may lend him 5000 US dollars and he will say
- you only lent me 500 dollars (he took away a zero)
O you who believe! When you contract a debt for a fixed period, write it down. Let a scribe write it
down in justice between you. Let not the scribe refuses to write as Allah has taught him, so let
him write. Let him (the debtor) who incurs the liability dictate, and he must fear Allah, his
Lord....(Al-Baqarah 2:282)
ALLAH SWT has warned you and commanded you:

- when you lend money, write it down
- many of you would have thought that the longest ayah in the Quran
- regards eeman or taqwa
- but it talks about money instead -- many people kill and rob over money
- many people left from the UK and went to Pakistan to build houses,
- but their relatives came out with papers saying they own the house
- then the person who really built the house
- hires a hit man to kill his own relative!
- this happens everyday in Pakistan
- it happens in Nigeria as well
4. LAZINESS
1.SPIRITUAL LAZINESS
- where a person does not want to pray, read Quran, or make dhikr
- the scholars have mentioned about a man who abandons salah due to laziness :
- Ahmad ibn Hanbal said this man is a kaafir
Narrated 'Abdullah ibn Shaqiq al-'Aqeely, "The companions of Muhammad (SAW), did not
consider the abandonment of any act, with the exception of prayer, as being disbelief (kufr)."
(Tirmizhi and al-Hakim, who said it met al-Bukhari’s and Muslim's conditions)
Abu Hanifa, Imam Malik and Imam Shafi'i say he is still a Muslim
- the correct opinion is that of Ahmad ibn Hanbal
The difference between a man (Muslim) and shirk and kufr is the abandoning of salah. (Sahih
Muslim: Kitab ul Iman: Book 001, Number 0147)
We never considered the abandonment as kufr except for the salah

- in the time of the Rasul, even the munafiqeen would pray!
- Umar wanted to chop off the head of the munafiqeen,
- but the Rasul said : do you want the people to say
- I, Muhammad (SAW), am killing my own Sahabahs?
- the munafiqeen hide behind salah
- why do they hide behind salah ? because they know if they don’t pray,
- they will be exposed as fake Muslims
- they use salah as a cover --
- the correct opinion is that of Ahmad ibn Hanbal
- HOWEVER you’re not allowed to make takfir on the man who abandons salah
- until you establish the hujjah
revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah 9:11)
- because he was told by his local mulanas that if he doesn’t pray,

- he is still a Muslim
- before Ali killed the Khawarij, he sent ibn Abbass to establish the hujjah
- so the man who does not pray, you’re not allowed
- to make takfir on him until you establish the hujjah
- those of the Khawarij that came back to the aqeedah of ASWJ were spared,
- those that didn’t were killed
...And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning). (Al-Isra 17:15)
Because of the ayah 17:25 --- Ali refused to fight the Khawarij until he established the hujjah; there are
millions of people in the world today who don’t pray, but you’re not allowed to make takfir on them until
you establish the hujjah; many of you think, that you need to give the person a week, month or year to
accept the hujjah; this is dodgy aqeedah; when you establish the hujjah, they HAVE TO ACCEPT IT
IMMEDIATELY
A man went up to the Rasul for an opinion, he then went to Abu Bakr and his for HIS opinion : abu Bakr
said did you ask the Rasul ? the man said: yes -- Abu Bakr drove him away -- the man went to Umar and
asked his opinion -- when Umar found out that he came to Umar for his opinion after hearing the Rasool’s
opinion , Umar chopped off the mans head; and no one disputed what Umar did
If you come to the masjid wearing a gold ring, and the imam tells you that gold is haraam for men, you
cannot tell the imam : give me a month to give up the gold because I've been wearing gold since I was
16, and now I am 40; this kind of reasoning does not exist; see 5:90
O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), gambling, Al¬Ansab, and Al ¬Azlam
(arrows for seeking luck or decision) are an abomination of Shaitan's (Satan) handiwork. So avoid
(strictly all) that (abomination) in order that you may be successful. (Al-Ma'idah 5:90)
When ALLAH (swt) revealed 5:90 telling the Sahabahs that alcohol was haraam; the Sahabahs were still
drinking; the Sahabahs were drinking and when they heard the ayat they did not say : I am going to have
my last drink -- no instead they spat out the alcohol that was in their mouths; the scholars of Islam said :
the streets of medina was flowing with alcohol, because they threw it all out immediately; but the
munafiqh wants time to give it up -- but what if they die?
Why were the Sahabahs able to spit out the alcohol and throw it out? because they had taqwa -- they
love ALLAH (SWT) and they fear ALLAH (SWT) before you can implement Shariah, you need the
foundation, and you need to have taqwa and tawheed
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: When the Prophet sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to him, "You are going to
a nation from the people of the Scripture, so let the first thing to which you will invite them, be the
Tauhid of Allah. If they learn that, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be
offered in one day and one night. And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them Zakat
of their properties and it is to be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor. And if
they agree to that, then take from them Zakat but avoid the best property of the people." [Sahih
The correct manhaj is establish tawheed, then Shariah

- when Muhammad (SAW) sent Maud ibn Jabal to Yemen
- he told them to preach them tawheed, and if they accept
- then to teach them salah, zakah, etc
- you need to establish the foundation of tawheed :
- how can you tell the atheists of the world to follow the Shariah of ALLAH
- if they don’t even believe in ALLAH?
- therefore the correct manhaj is to invite people to tawheed in dar ul kufr
- and to invite people to Shariah in dar ul Islam
- the surahs that were revealed in Mecca were short surahs regarding tawheed
- they were revealed in dar ul harb
- but when the Islamic state was established in medina,
- ALLAH (SWT) sent down long surahs that dealt with Shariah
- to invite people to Tawheed in dar ul harb is the manhaj of ALLAH SWT
- and those who don’t call for tawheed in dar ul harb,
- they are going against the manhaj of ALLAH
- its absolutely ridiculous and ludicrous to invite the kaafirs to Shariah
- when they don’t even believe in the existence of ALLAH
2. PHYSICAL LAZINESS
- to refuse to work and feed your family
- the person who is physically lazy loves to beg
- don’t you know to work and feed your family is an act of Ibaada?
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (SAW) as saying: It is better for any one of you to tie a
bundle of firewood and carry it on his back and sell it than to beg a person, he may give or may
refuse. [Sahih Muslim, Book 5, Hadith #2269]
When a man is always begging from people. he would meet Allah (in a state) that there would be
no flesh on his face. Muslim 33 Book 5 pg 2263
You’re allowed to be a professional beggar if you work for charity; if you work for a Muslim charity; you’re
considered a professional beggar which is allowed because you did not beg for yourself but for charity,
and ALLAH SWT said : those who beg for charity; you’re allowed to give them a salary
As-Sadaqat (here it means Zakat) are only for the Fuqara' (poor), and Al-Masakin (the poor) and
those employed to collect (the funds); and for to attract the hearts of those who have been
inclined (towards Islam); and to free the captives; and for those in debt; and for Allah's Cause (i.e.
for Mujahideen - those fighting in the holy wars), and for the wayfarer (a traveler who is cut off
from everything); a duty imposed by Allah. And Allah is All-Knower, All-Wise. (At-Tawbah 9:60)
3. THE INTELLECTUAL LAZINESS

- in which you refuse to study
- when you are lazy intellectually, you don’t have an investigative mind
- you don’t investigate and you repeat everything you hear
"It is enough to call a man a liar that he narrates everything he hears" Saheeh al-Jaami' 4482 and
Jaami' as-Sagheer
O you who believe! If a rebellious evil person comes to you with a news, verify it, lest you harm
people in ignorance, and afterwards you become regretful to what you have done. (Al-Hujurat
49:6)
The kuffaar have said they’ve killed Osama bin Laden and dumped him into the sea -- they did not
provide any proof for this; when they captured Saddam Hussain, they paraded him all over the world to
show they’ve captured him; now , if they have killed Osama bin laden as they claim, they would have
paraded it in the media; there are Muslims who actually believe the kuffaar media; they don’t investigate
what they hear;
Story of incubators: a nurse said : the Iraqi soldiers dumped babies out of incubators and shipped the
incubators back to Iraq -- when it was investigated it was found that the nurse was related to an Iraqi
government figure -- in reality, no babies were dumped; the kuffaar have said they’ve killed Osama bin
laden and dumped him into the sea
"It is enough to call a man a liar that he narrates everything he hears" Saheeh al-Jaami' 4482 and
Jaami' as-Sagheer
LIES OF THE KUFFAAR

-when the kuffaar tell you that the aids virus comes from the green monkeys of Africa
-do you believe that? when they kuffaar tell you
-that homosexuality is natural - do you believe that?
-when the kuffaar tell you that we evolve from monkeys; do you believe that?
-when the kuffaar tell you that they killed bin laden
-and dumped him in the sea (no proof)
-do you believe that?
-when the white man said the Muslims bombed Moscow; do you believe that?
Alexander Litvinenko said the kuffaar bombed Moscow

-and blamed it on Muslims so they can invade the Muslims and seize their oil
Alexander Litvinenko: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Litvinenko
One of the signs of the last days : the people will believe liars and not listen to those who speak the haqq
Alexander Litvinenko - BLOWING UP RUSSIA
http://www.ocnus.net/cgi-bin/exec/view.cgi?archive=106&num=27035
Sayyidina Abdullah ibn Amr ibn Al-Aas (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Allah
will not take away knowledge from the people all at once. But, he will take away knowledge by
taking away the Ulama (one by one) till no scholar survives. The people will take the ignorant for
leaders and will ask them and they will issue verdicts without knowledge, going astray
(themselves) and leading (others) astray.” [Ahmed 6521,Bukhari 100, Muslim 2673, Tirmidhi 2661,
Ibn e Majah 52]
The kuffaar killed Alexander Litvinenko for exposing them; if you write a book against an establishment,
and they invite you for lunch, you cant go to them for lunch! the Rasul said: you should only eat with
righteous people; Alexander Litvinenko wrote a book against the kuffaar, the kuffaar invited him for lunch;
he should have smelled a rat; the kuffaar poisoned him at the lunch; he died from this poison, BUT
Alexander Litvinenko took Shahadah, so Alhamdulilah at least he did not die a kaafir
The Rasul said: you should only share your food with righteous people (hadith)
The Prophet, Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam said, "Do not take someone as a friend, unless he is a
believer, and nobody should eat your food unless he is pious." [Abu Dawud 41:4832]
5. BEGGING
-the Rasul said: it is better for you to sell fire wood over your back than to beg
-ALLAH SWT has said : man will accomplish what he has strived for
And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad), (An-Najm 53:39)
6. SEXUAL WEAKNESS
-the shaitan is so clever, some people he have turned into gigolos, and some he has turned to priests
-these priests who abstain from woman, ALLAH (SWT) has said this is a bidah (a cursed innovation)
...But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but
(they sought it) only to please Allāh therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right
observance. So We gave those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them
are Fāsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allāh). (Al-Hadid 57:27)
-the shaitan causes people to lose the mark; they cannot keep the balance
-the sexual instinct is one of the most powerful instincts
-how can you abstain from it?
-a gigolo is on the opposite side of the spectrum
-Muslims practice nikah
I marry women. Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me.”(Sahih Bukhari and Sahih
Muslim)
-those who abstain from women, they are not among the followers of Muhammad (saw)
-so how can anyone say there is such a thing as a gay Muslim?
"If you find anyone doing as Lot’s people did, kill the one who does it, and the one to whom it is
done" (Abu Dawud, Vol. 3, p. 145, No. 4447)
The caliphs caught the homosexuals and killed them and burned their bodies and did not give them
janaza; if they were Muslims why were their bodies burned? we don’t burn the bodies of Muslims; this is
proof that there is no such thing as a gay Muslim; some gays in cape town wanted to paint a masjid PINK!
this is due to the dodgy fatwas of some who say gays can be Muslims.
NO CALIPH DID JANAZA OVER A GAY
If it was possible for a gay to be Muslim, then why did they catch the homosexuals and stone them and
burned their bodies and did not pray janaza over them -- if they were Muslims why were their bodies
burned? we don’t burn the bodies of Muslims
Sexual weakness is a very strong weakness
Shaikh Faisal in Africa

-has just recently finished touring 12 African countries
-a doctor told shaikh : everyday 1000 people die from aids
-and the reality is more people die from aids, but due to their embarrassment
-they give another reason for death
Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is between his two jaw-bones
and what is between his two legs (i.e. his tongue and his private parts), I guarantee Paradise for
him." Bukhari, Volume 8, Book 76, Number 481
-the Rasul said: if you can control 2 organs, I can guarantee paradise:
-what is between your legs and what is between your jaw (tongue and private parts)
Why does the Hanbali madhab allow masturbation?

-because what is between the legs is difficult to control
-and then the Malikis tried to refute the Hanbalis
-they tried to use the Quran >> 23:5-7 to checkmate the Hanbalis
-the correct opinion is that of Ahmad ibn Hanbal
And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts) (Al-Mu'minun 23:5)
Except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then, they
are free from blame; (Al-Mu'minun 23:6)
But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors; (Al-Mu'minun 23:7)
* a virgin is not allowed to masturbate with dildos, because she violates her honor
** her husband will not think she is a virgin
How many corrupt politicians have lost their careers because of this weakness?
DAVID MELLOR
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Mellor
The politician David Mellow: he was said to be pro Palestinian; they bugged his phone and found out he
was having an affair, and this ended his career; he went to Palestine and he criticized the Jews on what
he was doing to the Palestinians, then when he came back to UK his career was over
Mark Oaten : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Oaten
-he criticized the war on Iraq and said it was illegal

-he has a weakness for boys
-weaknesses in s-xual weakness is very strong
-great fitnah for a man is a woman
“I have not left behind me any fitnah (temptation) more harmful to men than women.” Narrated by
al-Bukhaari, 5096; Muslim, 2740.
Shaikh only called the name of a few politicians but he can call the name of many more
And come not near to the unlawful sexual intercourse. Verily, it is a Fahishah [i.e. anything that
transgresses its limits (a great sin)], and an evil way (that leads one to Hell unless Allah forgives
him). (Al-Isra 17:32)
Do not come NEAR to zina (s-x outside of marriage)

-do not be in seclusion w/a man or a woman, not even a shaikh
-khalwa = seclusion
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab: The Prophet said, "Whenever a man is alone with a woman the
Devil makes a third." [Ahmad and Al-Tirmidhi 3118]
Do not be alone w/ a shaikh in a room learning how to recite Qur'an

-the Sufi's will lock themselves up in a room w/ girl and rape them
-one raped 300 women and got them pregnant (Pakistan)
-these Sufis will use Islam to exploit women
Peer Baba Made 300 Women Pregnant: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-rFkJYcwpc
-these will tamper w/ private parts and target married woman

-they think she will be ashamed to tell her husband she was raped
-mureed - blind follower of a Sufi master
-he may have impregnated more than 300 women
REMINDER: your child's 1st right over you is to be legitimate
-you’re not allowed to bastardize your child

-the first right your child has over you,
-before he is even born, is for him to be legitimate
-because if your child is a bastard, he cannot lead the salah in the masjid
-Shaikh Faisal was in a masjid in Africa, a man was about to lead the salah
-but this caused fitna because in his tribe the women slept before marriage
-so there was doubt if he was a bastard child or not
Shaikh in South Africa

-the dominant madhabs are Maliki or Shafi’i
in these madhabs you cannot lead the salah if you’re a bastard child
-the Hanbalis are very lenient and don’t discriminate against the bastard child
-the reason behind this: Surah 17:15
..No one laden with burdens can bear another's burden... (Al-Isra 17:15)
No one can bear the burden of another so the parents are to be to blamed for committing zina; you cant
discriminate against the bastard child but the Malakis and Shafi’i say NO, a bastard child cannot lead the
salah; some scholars even say : a bastard child cannot bear witness in a courthouse; the bastard child
cannot take the name of his father, and he cannot inherit a penny from the father; if his fathers name is
Abdullah and the mothers name is Maryam, the bastard child’s name would be Abdullah ibn Maryam; a
revert cannot be a bastard child; when the revert takes Shahadah, it wipes out everything before; the law
of the bastard child applies only in dar ul Islam.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd night of The 25 Weaknesses of Mankind continue now…
Bismillah…
Recapping the previous class,

6th weaknesses is promiscuity
-we are told not to even come NEAR to zina
-Allah didn't say do not commit it but don't even come near to zina
-do not be locked in a room while someone you're not married to
-khalwa is haraam
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab: The Prophet said, "Whenever a man is alone with a woman the
Devil makes a third." [Ahmad and Al-Tirmidhi 3118]
-stay away from the avenue of the tongue, seeing her, going to her apartment
-our private parts confirm or negate the zina
-Sufis do khawla a lot
-they prefer to have married women thinking
-they will be ashamed to tell their husbands
-Sufis exploit the Mureeds (they follow the PEER, a Sufi master)
Barelvis Peer Raped 300 Women & made them pregnant

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uOWf_qLdb4
SECLUSION IS HARAAM IN ISLAM even w/ a shaikh
Prophet Muhammad said: “Who protects his tongue from unlawful utterances and his private
parts from illegal sexual intercourse; I shall guarantee him entrance into Paradise.” (Bukhari and
Muslim)
THE BAD CONSEQUENCES OF THE TONGUE cause us to end up in hellfire
7TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TREACHERY

-the treacherous person lets your secret out when you fight or quarrel
-who needs enemies when you have friends like these
The Prophet said, "Whoever has the following four (characteristics) will be a pure hypocrite and
whoever has one of the following four characteristics will have one characteristic of hypocrisy
unless and until he gives it up. 1. Whenever he is entrusted, he betrays. 2. Whenever he speaks,
he tells a lie. 3. Whenever he makes a covenant, he proves treacherous. 4. Whenever he quarrels,
he behaves in a very imprudent, evil and insulting manner." [Bukhari, Book 2, Hadith #33]
3 types of people in the word

1 FRIEND
2 ENEMIES
3 FRENEMY
Frenemy are people who is an avowed enemy but PRETENDS to be your friend
-taqwah makes you wise to who is your real friend
-taqwah means you are God-fearing
And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes,
missiles, artillery, etc.) to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides whom,
you may not know but whom Allah does know. And whatever you shall spend in the Cause of
Allah shall be repaid unto you, and you shall not be treated unjustly. (Al-Anfal 8:60)
They are so clever w/ their hypocrisy, they can hide it
-the person Shaikh is speaking about spied on mujahideen and then told the kuffaar
-we have enemies we do not even know about
-only Allah 'tala knows them
Don't think you can smell a munafiqh a mile away

-you are not wiser than the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)
-the angel Gabriel had to tell him who was the munafiqh
MUNAFIQH is who practice taqiyya

-this is deception
-the Shiites practice this, as well
-they can be in this room and we would not know it
TREACHEROUS PEOPLE CAN'T BE TRUSTED

-so they have no deen
-not w/ your money
-not w/ a secret
-not w/ your wife
-not w/ anything
"There is no faith for the one who has no trust, and there is no religion for the one that does not
fulfill his promises." Ahmad
WHEN YOU TALK TO SOMEONE ON PALTALK, WE SAY: DON'T COPY/PASTE MY CHAT W/ YOU
-if you don't say that, they will share it w/ others
-this is a type of deception
Certainly Allah likes not the treacherous. (Al-Anfal 8:58)
ANOTHER TYPE OF TREACHERY: exposing the bedroom secrets of your partner
On the authority of Asmaa bint Yazid who narrated "that she was once in the presence of the
Prophet and there were both men and women sitting. The Prophet then said: "Perhaps a man
might discuss what he does with his wife, or perhaps a woman might inform someone what she
did with her husband?" The people were silent Then I said: "O, Yes! O Messenger of Allaah verily
both the women and men do that." Then the Prophet said: "Do not do that. It is like a male
shaitaan who meets a female shaitaan along the way, and has sex with her while the people look
on!" [Ahmad: Hasan or Saheeh due to supports]
-some women in the time of the Rasool sat and discussed their jim3aa lives [s-x]
-he said not to do this because it's like other looking on as you have jim3aa
-if the women of today sat down, that might be all they talked about
-esp since the female Sahabahs did it
-it's a type of treachery and men are guilty of this weakness, more than women
-men like to brag and boast about their ability to satisfy a woman
MEN also like to double their s-xual partners; if they have 5 they say they had 10
-this is from their male ego
-worst thing a woman can do to a man is to tell him he is not good in bed
-or my new man is better than you!!
On Paltalk, sisters complain they are not satisfied in the bedroom

-shaikh says bring him to a private room so we can talk
-but the men are too proud to come
-this is pandemic
-you should seek professional advice from an expert [maybe medical expert]
-because it’s the right of each other to be satisfied
And they (women) have rights (over their husbands as regards living expenses, etc.) similar (to
those of their husbands) over them (as regards obedience and respect, etc.) to what is
reasonable, but men have a degree (of responsibility) over them. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
(Al-Baqarah 2:228)
The Prophet said, "Do good deeds properly, sincerely and moderately, and receive good news
because one's good deeds will NOT make him enter Paradise." They asked, "Even you, O Allah's
Apostle?" He said, "Even I, unless and until Allah bestows His pardon and Mercy on me." (Sahih
al-Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 76, No 474)
WOMEN HAVE THE SAME JIM3AA RIGHTS AS MEN

-they can call you to bed
-Ibn Abass dressed up for his wife because he said we have the same rights as women
8TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS: LOW SELF-ESTEEM / INFERIORITY COMPLEX

These people are dangerous because they will do just about anything
-many are afraid to get married [brothers are afraid to fail as a man]
-some sisters are afraid he will leave
-for another woman or he doesn't like their cooking
-their upbringing is what causes this
-maybe their parents didn't give them confidence
-some people are blessed by Allah 'tala w/ talents
-but their parents didn't recognize these
MICHAEL JACKSON
-his father laughed at his nose
-so he had many plastic surgeries on his nose
In the time of Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), a man had a problem w/a son
-he called him a DUNG BEETLE
-but we're told to give our children good names
It is reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "On the Day of Resurrection, you will be
called by your names and by your fathers' names, so give yourselves good names." (Hadith Abu
Dawud)
A right a child has a child over us is to be

1 legitimate
2 have a good name
In Malakis madhab, your child can't lead salah in masjid w/ a bad name
-bad name (bastard child)
-we give them low self esteem in our ummah
IF A MUSLIMAH IS RAPED, SHE CAN ABORT THE CHILD

-abortion is halal if done before 6 weeks
-this is Hanbali madhab
LOW SELF ESTEEM IS DANGEROUS

-esp if our talents are not utilized
-we lack confidence
-the kuffaar want us to suffer low self esteem
-it is the 1st step towards apostasy
REPEAT: -the kuffaar want us to suffer low self esteem because it is the 1st step towards
apostasy
The kuffaar are keen to wage psychological warfare against us

-see the Battle of Uhud
-Abu Sufiyan said to raise up the idol but Muhammad (saws)
-said to the people to tell him
-Allah is the highest!!!
-he was trying psychological warfare
-but the Rasool (saws) said to them him:
-Allah is our maula and you have no maula!!
-Abu Sufiyan was claiming "a day for a day"
-but he was told our dead are in Paradise
-and your dead are in the hellfire
Narrated Al-Bara bin Azib: The Prophet appointed 'Abdullah bin Jubair as the commander of the
infantry men (archers) who were fifty on the day (of the battle) of uhud. He instructed them, "Stick
to your place, and don't leave it even if you see birds snatching us, till I send for you; and if you
see that we have defeated the infidels and made them flee, even then you should not leave your
place till I send for you." Then the infidels were defeated. By Allah, I saw the women fleeing lifting
up their clothes revealing their leg-bangles and their legs. So, the companions of 'Abdullah bin
Jubair said, "The booty! O people, the booty ! Your companions have become victorious, what are
you waiting for now?" 'Abdullah bin Jubair said, "Have you forgotten what Allah's Apostle said to
you?" They replied, "By Allah! We will go to the people (i.e. the enemy) and collect our share from
the war booty." But when they went to them, they were forced to turn back defeated. At that time
Allah's Apostle in their rear was calling them back. Only twelve men remained with the Prophet
and the infidels martyred seventy men from us. On the day (of the battle) of Badr, the Prophet and
his companions had caused the 'Pagans to lose 140 men, seventy of whom were captured and
seventy were killed. Then Abu Sufyan asked thrice, "Is Muhammad present amongst these
people?" The Prophet ordered his companions not to answer him. Then he asked thrice, "Is the
son of Abu Quhafa present amongst these people?" He asked again thrice, "Is the son of Al-
Khattab present amongst these people?" He then returned to his companions and said, "As for
these (men), they have been killed." 'Umar could not control himself and said (to Abu Sufyan),
"You told a lie, by Allah! O enemy of Allah! All those you have mentioned are alive, and the thing
which will make you unhappy is still there." Abu Sufyan said, "Our victory today is a
counterbalance to yours in the battle of Badr, and in war (the victory) is always undecided and is
shared in turns by the belligerents, and you will find some of your (killed) men mutilated, but I did
not urge my men to do so, yet I do not feel sorry for their deed" After that he started reciting
cheerfully, "O Hubal, be high! (1) On that the Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you
answer him back?" They said, "O Allah's Apostle What shall we say?" He said, "Say, Allah is
Higher and more Sublime." (Then) Abu Sufyan said, "We have the (idol) Al Uzza, and you have no
Uzza." The Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you answer him back?" They asked, "O
Allah's Apostle! What shall we say?" He said, "Says Allah is our Helper and you have no helper."
(Bukhari,Book #52, Hadith #276)MUHAMMAD DID PSYCHOLOGICAL
WARFARE on them, as well

-the kuffaar today do the same thing
-they call us 'terrorist' so we take off hijab and the brothers shave their beards
-they want us to be ashamed for being part of this ummah
-that is their strategy
HOW CAN WE HAVE LOW SELF ESTEEM WHEN WE'RE TOLD IN 25:44....?
even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worst than cattle). (Al-Furqan 25:44)
THE KUFFAAR ARE NARROW MIND
-they were told not to go into Afghan
-they thought they would survive it
-but the US has been bankrupted because of these wars
-so Obama thinks if he kills a popular shaikh,
-the people will vote him back in Whitehouse
-but the American people know that they have no jobs or food
-so Awlaki's death does nothing FOR them
-his death doesn't feed them and he wasn't bothering them,
-so they want to know, why do we care if he is dead?
-these do not kick-start the US economy
LUST IS A DISEASE OF THE HEART AND SO IS PRIDE

-no one can advise you when you have pride
-OBAMA WAS EXPECTED TO WORK MIRACLES
-he did not have the Midas touch
-his approval rating in only 35%
-so he is killing shaikhs and that is backfiring
-because the US is doing EXTRA JUDICIAL KILLINGS
-this is killing them w/o a trial
-so no one is safe, anywhere, if you are US citizen
EXTRA JUDICIAL KILLINGS = every country does it
See DR DAVID KELLY (UK)

-didn't think the UK should go to war and said so
David Kelly: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Kelly_%28weapons_expert%29

-dead men can't testify so he was killed
Same for Anwar Awlaki

-Obama thinking to kill him he can be re-elected in the US
-but he is wrong!!
-the American people vote WITH THE DINNER TABLE
-if they are hungry, they don’t' vote for man not providing food
-when Clinton had an affair in the White House, no one said he should resign
-because he gave them jobs and money surplus and petrol for car and college aid
PEOPLE IN THE US VOTE ACCORDING TO HOW THEY CAN EAT AT NIGHT

-the semen on the girls' dress did not matter to Americans
-because the economy was ticking over
-so to send someone to kill our shaikhs does not matter to the American people,
-who are hungry, w/o jobs, needing gas and food
-so Clinton could get away w/ anything because he kept the people working and eating
-people worship money, technology and pleasures of the flesh
-tell your children they are pretty
-don't put them down
-don't call them names
-when they have low self esteem, they are vulnerable to be exploited
9TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS BEING COMPULSIVE LYING
-"I have contacts w/ this person and that person...."

-they say they have contacts w/ ministers of information, w/ TV stations
-they promise you one phone call from them can get you anything but
-they have no contacts w/ anyone but his cats and dogs
-people like to lie and lie on their CV [resume]
WHY DO PEOPLE LIE?

-to raise their status among their peers
-some men cut out newspapers and on top is 1 large money like 50.00 bill
-and under the 1 bill, he has newspapers and the women think OH HE HAS MONEY
-but he is broke!!
People want to be more marketable

-they don’t want to be seen as a loser
-anytime a man is broke and speaks like a millionaire
-stay away from him; he is a con artist
SHAIKH IN SOUTH AFRICA

-he was w/ a lot of rich people
-and was told if a man has no money to put into a biz, don't invest w him
-because he has nothing to lose
People don't want to look like a loser in front of their peers

-look at kaafir men: they will say they have 10 s-x partners
-when they have only 5
-they want to be seen as a DOG
SHAIKH IN BELMARSH PRISON (UK)

-the men liked to be called DOGS - it meant they are promiscuous
SHAIKH IN JAMAICA
-the people there were insulted to be called a DOG
DAVID CAMERON, BRITISH P.M. said they are living in a sick society
-to be called a dog and think it is a compliment, oh that is a sick society
10TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS GLUTTONY

-this is overeating till we become fat
-the big belly is a sign of a munafiqh
“A believer eats in one intestine (is satisfied with little food) and a kaafir (unbeliever) or a
hypocrite eats with seven intestines" (Bukhari)
US PRESIDENTS do not have a big belly

-big belly rulers are found in the Middle East
-big belly people LIVE TO EAT not eat to live
while those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their abode.
(Muhammad 47:12)
EAT 1/3 FOR FOOD, WATER AND BREATHING

-eat only when hungry
SHAIKH KNOWS THE AGE, HEIGHT AND WEIGHT OF MOST SISTERS IN HERE
-then he asks doctors who come here if they are obese or too skinny
-they will say if the woman is ready for marriage
SHAIKH ASKS QUESTIONS THAT ARE NOT ONLY ON THE DEEN BUT ALSO YOUR WELL-BEING
ON
-psychology and physical health, too
-one was very overweight and did COMFORT EATING after her divorce
-if you're depressed, go be w/ practicing Muslims
-some will over eat or spend too much money when depressed
-man in UK was eating himself to death
-another in US weighed one ton
So Whosoever abandons the wise Shariah which was revealed upon Muhammed ibn Abdullah, the
seal of the prophets, and goes to other abrogated Shariah for judgment, he becomes a Kaafir. So
how about the one who goes to al-Yaasiq (man-made law) for judgment and gives it precedence
(over the Sharia of Muhammed (saw). Whosoever does this has become a Kaafir by the Ijma of the
Muslims. Ibn Kathir, Al-Bidayah Wan-Nihayah, Vol 13, p119
'BODY SHOCK’:
http://www.channel4.com/programmes/bodyshock/4od#2923145
CLINICALLY OBESE - 5-10 LBS OVERWEIGHT

MORBIDLY OBESE - 50-100 LBS OVERWEIGHT
We're not permitted to marry someone morbidly obese
We need to be physically healthy AND spiritually healthy
PRADER WILLI SYNDROME:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prader%E2%80%93Willi_syndrome
Gluttony is called Prader Willi syndrome

-the kaafir eats w/ 7 intestines
A believer eats in one intestine (is satisfied with little food) and a kaafir (unbeliever) or a hypocrite
eats with seven intestines" (Bukhari)
11th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS STINGINESS
ZAKAH - to grow
ZAKAH - to purify your wealth
-we're s stingy, if we don't have a strong caliph to collect zakah,

-they won't pay it
...And those who hoard up gold and silver [Al-Kanz: the money, the Zakat of which has not been
paid], and spend it not in the Way of Allah, -announce unto them a painful torment. (At-Tawbah
9:34)
"Whoever is made wealthy by Allah and does not pay the Zakat of his wealth, then on the Day of
Resurrection his wealth will be made like a bald-headed poisonous male snake with two black
spots over the eyes. The snake will encircle his neck and bite his cheeks and say, 'I am your
wealth, I am your treasure.' Bukhari Volume 2, Book 24, Number 486.
Abu Bakr - fought and killed those who did not pay zakah
-he fought them as kuffaar because they denied the pillar of zakah
Abu Bakr said: By Allah, I would definitely fight against him who severed prayer from Zakat, for it
is the obligation upon the rich. By Allah, I would fight against them even to secure the cord (used
for hobbling the feet of a camel) which they used to give to the Messenger of Allah (as Zakat) but
now they have withheld it. Umar b. Khattab remarked: By Allah, I found nothing but the fact that
Allah had opened the heart of Abu Bakr for (perceiving the justification of) fighting (against those
who refused to pay Zakat) and I fully recognized that the (stand of Abu Bakr) was right. [Sahih
Muslim, Book 1, Hadith #0029]
12th WEAKNESSES OF MANKIND IS TO LEAD SOMEONE ON
If someone propose nikah to you and you know their is no chemistry,

-but we say I WILL THINK ABOUT IT
-the sisters even accept gifts
-esp those in 3rd world countries
SHAIKH IN AFRICA
-the women were circumcised but that was stupid because she uses her private parts
-to extort money from men to feed her starving family
-so it was stupid to do this to them
-tell the person we're not compatible
-we're not to lead someone on
-usually women do this : THE THRILL OF THE CHASE
-women in 3rd world countries are like foxes
-we can not tell someone INSH'ALLAH WE WILL GET MARRIED
O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allah and fear Him, and speak (always) the truth. (Al-Ahzab
33:70)
13th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND is refusing to change their views even after the hujjah has been
established
-Nimrod and the Fir'awn had this problem
-Abu Jahl also had this problem
-They asked Rasulallah to describe al-Aqsa
-he did so successfully
-the Kuffar of Quraish asked Abu Jahl to believe in Rasulallah
-he refused in the name of Asabiyya saying his clan and Rasul's clan had problems
...But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muhammad
which are written in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)]. (Al-Baqarah 2:146)
-the Jews suffer from Asabiyya, they believe they are the master race
-when Musaylimah (from Banu Tamim tribe) came
-some said they don’t give a damn if he is a false prophet
-because he is from their tribe
-even if he leads them to hell. they are ready to follow him there
Mirza Ghulam Ahmed is followed by the Pakistanis, Indians, and Bengalis

-because he is an Asian
-this is due to Asabiyya
-we don’t see Arabs, Blacks, or Whites being Ahmedis
ELIJAH POLE from the NATION OF ISLAM

-he had zina w/ 13 year old girls
-the NOI claim MASTER FOUAD MUHAMMAD was God
-but he was arrested and fingerprinted by the New York police
FARAD MUHAMMAD:
http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Perspectives_1/article_6699.shtml
LOUIS FARRAKHAN IS A FLIP-FLOPPER

-Michael Dukakis was a flip-flop politician against GEORGE BUSH DR
-Obama did the same flip - he never pulled out of Afghan or close down Guantanamo
-EVERY POLITICIAN FLIP-FLOPS
GEORGE BUSH SR criticized Dukakis for flip flopping but he did it too
-he said READ MY LIPS - I WILL NEVER RAISE TAXES
-and that is exactly what he did – FLIP FLOPPED
-he raised taxes!
-CLINTON SAID HE WILL NEVER ALLOWS GAYS IN THE MILITARY THEN HE FLIP-FLOPPED
*Politicians break their promises
HOW DO WE CHECKMATE MUSLIMS WHO BELIEVE IN DEMOCRACY ?
Neither those who disbelieve among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) nor Al-
Mushrikûn (the disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, idolaters, polytheists, pagans, etc.) like that
there should be sent down unto you any good from your Lord. But Allah chooses for His Mercy
whom He wills. And Allah is the Owner of Great Bounty. (Al-Baqarah 2:105)
The kuffaar do not want good to come to us from Allah 'tala
PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE THEIR OPINION WHEN THE HUJJAH IS ESTABLISHED
LOOK AT ALI - WHO SENT IBN ABASS TO DEBATE W/ THE KHAWARIJ

-Ibn Abass established the hujjah and 8,000 came back to ASWJ
-Ali fought the remainder and killed them
Why do we give hujjah before we make takfir or kill?
And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning). (Al-Isra 17:15)
-if they accepted the hujjah, he spared them but

-not those who did not accept the hujjah
-he searched the bodies of one who was disabled
-and his hand looked like the breast of a woman
WEAKNESS: REFUSING TO CHANGE OPINION EVEN AFTER THE HUJJAH WAS ESTABLISHED
And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning). (Al-Isra 17:15)
PRIDE IS THE SAME DISEASE AS THE PHARAOH

-even though Pharaoh was convinced Musa brought the truth
And they belied them (those Ayat) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their ownselves were
convinced thereof [i.e. those (Ayat) are from Allah, and Mûsa (Moses) s the Messenger of Allah in
truth, but they disliked to obey Mûsa (Moses), and hated to believe in his Message of
Monotheism]. So see what was the end of the Mufsidûn (disbelievers, disobedient to Allah, evil-
doers, liars.). (An-Naml 27:14)
14TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS ENVY

1 We see a brother have bounties and we want them transferred TO us
2 or we want their bounty to disappear totally [worse than the 1st envy]
3 or we want to kill someone for their bounties
IN DARUL HARB, they say envy and jealousy are the same thing
-in Islam, it's a good thing [jealousy - dayooth is to have no jealousy]
-a husband should feel jealous over his wife
By Allah, I am more jealous of my honour than he, and Allah is more jealous than I. [Sahih Muslim,
Hadith No. 3572]
When the woman had her hijab pulled off of her, she cried out to Mu'tasim
-he fought to restore her honor
-without jealousy, we don't go to paradise
Abdullah ibn Umar reported that the Prophet said: "Three people will not enter paradise, and
Allaah will not look to them on the Day of Judgment: the one who is disobedient to his parents,
the woman who imitates men and the ad-Dayooth." (Ahmad)
ENVY IS ALLOWED ON 2 OCCASIONS:

1. A BROTHER IMPARTS KNOWLEDGE W/ HIKMAH
2. A BROTHER SPENDS MONEY fisabilillah and we want to do the same
"Do not wish to be like anyone except in two cases. (The first is) A person, whom Allah has given
wealth and he spends it righteously; (the second is) the one whom Allah has given wisdom (the
Holy Qur'an) and he acts according to it and teaches it to others." (Fateh-al-Bari page 177 Vol. 1)
[Sahih Bukhari]
It is reported from Hudhaifa that news reached him (the Prophet) that a certain man carried tales.
Upon this Hudhaifa remarked: I heard Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) saying:
The tale-bearer shall not enter Paradise. [The Book of Faith No. 189 Muslim]
15TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TO SPREAD MISCHIEF ON THE EARTH
And when it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "We are only
peacemakers." (Al-Baqarah 2:11)
IN RWANDA, THEY LEAVE FITNAH FOR YOU TO FIGHT W/ YOUR NEIGHBORS
Ibn ‘Abbas related that the Messenger of God, upon him be God’s blessings and peace, passed by
two graves and said: “They are being punished, but not for a great matter (on their part). One of
them did not clean himself from urine, and the other used to spread slander.” (Tirmidhi, “Tahara,”
53)
WE CAN DO A HALAL LIE -

-to save a marriage
-to bring two people together
Narrated Ka'b ibn Malik: When the Prophet (SAW) intended to go on an expedition, he always
pretended to be going somewhere else, and he would say: "War is deception". [Abu Dawud 2629,
Tirmidhi 1681, Ahmed 14312]
WE CAN DO A HALAL LIE:

-to save a marriage
-to bring two people together
-on the battlefield
--each time Shaikh adds more points, we'll come back to this point and add more audio and notes;
shukran.

This is 3rd night in a 4 part series

Bismillah...
One of the weaknesses is for mankind

to refuse to change after the hujjah has been established
O you who believe! Enter perfectly in Islam (by obeying all the rules and regulations of the Islamic
religion) and follow not the footsteps of Shaitan (Satan). Verily! He is to you a plain enemy (Al-
Baqarah 2:208)
-we were commanded to enter Islam whole heartedly

-we cannot have one foot in Islam and one in Feminism,
-or Democracy or male chauvinism
It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that
they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he
has indeed strayed in a plain error. (Al-Ahzab 33:36)
-we are not to come with our own opinion when the Hukm of ALLAH is there
-at the time of the Rasul a man came to Rasulallah for his opinion
-then he went to Abu Bakr
-Abu Bakr asked him if he went to Rasulallah
But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad SAW) judge in all
disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept
(them) with full submission. (An-Nisa 4:65)
-he said yes, thereafter, Abu Bakr drove him away

-the man then went to Umar
-Umar asked him if he went to Rasulallah first
-he said yes, therefore, Umar chopped off his head
-because he didn’t take the opinion of Rasulallah
-but he was looking for another opinion over Rasulallah
-some Muslims prefer to go with their Madhabs over the opinion of Rasulallah
-the Sahabahs used to wipe over their woolen socks or cotton socks
-in the expedition of Tabuk
-Rasulallah saw them and he didn’t stop them
Some Hanafis refuse to wipe over their socks or hijabs

-because they believe it’s the Hanafi opinion
-they will never take the Hanbali opinion that permits these acts
-how will they do Wudhu in a mixed school?
-they cling to their school of Thoughts, this is called "Rigidity"
-they are the mischief makers, but they realize it not
-they are the ones that make Fitna on earth
And when it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "We are only
peacemakers." (Al-Baqarah 2:11)
Verily! They are the ones who make mischief, but they perceive not. (Al-Baqarah 2:12)
Abu Hurairah (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "You will find on Day of Resurrection
the worst among the people, a double-faced person who appears to some people with one face
and to others with another face.'' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
16th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TO HAVE TWO FACES

-the chameleon has different color when
-he needs to hide from his enemies,
-he is similar to the politicians
-when he is with the Christians, he speaks like them
-when he is with the Jews, he speaks like them,
-and he does likewise with every group he joins
-if you want to have sincerity, you must speak with one tongue
-ALLAH said so in Qur'an
-some say they believe when they are with the Muslims
And when they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe," but when they are alone with their
Shayatin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites, etc.), they say: "Truly, we are with you; verily, we were
but mocking." (Al-Baqarah 2:14)
-but when they join the Shayateen, they disbelieve

-the worst people on Yawm al-Qiyamat are those with two faces
17th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IN KLEPTOMANIA

-kleptomania: is an irresistible urge to steal items of trivial value
-this type of person goes in the shopping malls with a pair of scissors
-Winona Ryder, makes about 15 million USD per movie
-she was caught stealing in a shopping mall
-this disorder is found among rich and poor
-at times you invite people in your house
-and then you realize you miss your blackberry or your Rolex watch
-when you open your door to people with this disorder, you become vulnerable
-when they enter your shop, they , must shoplift
-some thieves, we cut their hands
Cut off (from the wrist joint) the (right) hand of the thief, male or female, as a recompense for that
which they committed, a punishment by way of example from Allah. And Allah is All Powerful, All
Wise. (Al-Ma'idah 5:38)
-some thieves, we cut their heads

-the British say cutting the hand of the thief is barbaric
-given that we are in the 21st century
-there was this Saudi doctor, and he was asked to be extradited to Saudi
-the people for "Human Rights" flipped saying
-the Saudis cut off the hands of people
-but in UK, every minute a car is stolen
Cut off (from the wrist joint) the (right) hand of the thief, male or female, as a recompense for that
which they committed, a punishment by way of example from Allah. And Allah is All¬ Powerful,
All¬ Wise. (Al-Ma'idah 5:38)
-who are they to look down upon the laws of the Muslims? their society is not safe
-we cannot look down upon the Laws of ALLAH
-A Kaafir can never come to terms with the Laws of ALLAH because he is an Atheist
-This British is an Atheist, denies the existence of ALLAH,
-and disbelieves in ALLAH, how can they believe in cutting the hand of the thief?
-so to call Kuffaar to Shari'ah instead of Tawheed is wrong
-it’s not the right Manhaj
-we call to Tawheed first
There are Muslims out there who cannot accept the fact
-that we must cut the hand of the thief
-how can we expect the Kuffaar to accept it?
-this is not possible
-the correct Manhaj is to invite them to the Tawheed of ALLAH
-as the hadith of Maud ibn Jabal says
18th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TIME WASTING
-we cannot waste time or money

-the wasters are the brothers of the Shaytan
-and the Shaytan is ungrateful to ALLAH
-there are people in their 60s and 70s that are begging others for money
-they didn’t use their youth to earn a degree or a living
-they wasted their youth believing they would remain forever young
-we use 5 before 5
-we use health before sickness
-we use our dunya to prepare for our Akhirah
-we use our life before our death
-we use our youth before our death
-we use our free time before we are busy
Ibn Mas’ud (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “The feet of the son of Adam will not
move away from his Lord on the Day of Resurretion till he is asked about five things about his life,
how he spent it; about his youth, how he paseed it; about his wealth, how he eared it; and on what
he poured it; and what he did with that which he learnt.” (Tirmidhi 2424)
Law of nature: he who fails to prepare has to be prepared to fail**

Doctor Harold Shipman killed old patients:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Shipman
-the prisoners in Belmarsh gave shocking feedbacks to Shaikh

-one black prisoner said Shipman was a good doctor
-because he killed only white patients
-another prisoner said he didn’t give a damn if Shipman were to kill his own mother
-because he would inherit his mother's house
-these immoral prisoners were in their 20s
-they think they will remain forever young
19th WEAKNESS IS PESSIMISM

-some sisters fear getting married
-they fear their husbands will leave them if they don’t like their foods
-or their husbands might not like them and leave them for other women
-we tell these people to buy a ticket and get on a plane that will crash in Jeddah
-millionaires take chances
-some brothers are afraid to propose to sisters

-if we look at the dark side of life,
-we will never even make Hajj
-because we think the plane might crash
-some will not eat fish
-because they fear the bone will get stuck in their throat
-some fear getting stuck the in the stock
-the pessimist will never accomplish anything in life
I am as My servant thinks I am. I am with him when he makes mention of Me. If he makes mention
of Me to himself, I make mention of him to Myself; and if he makes mention of Me in an assembly, I
make mention of …al-Buhkari, Muslim, at-Tirmidhi and Ibn-Majah)
-this hadith is for the pessimist

-if you are suffering from dire strait
-and you believe that ALLAH will take you out of it
-then surely ALLAH will because HE will do to you as you believe
20th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS ESCAPISM

-to depend upon Khamr and Hallucinogens
-people suffer in life and they feel emotional pain
-they believe that sniffing heroine or drinking Khamr will make them numb
-this is called "Escapism"
-some suffer because they lost their house
-some suffer because their wives cheat on them
-some suffer because they are impotent
-some suffer because they lost loved ones
And by the begetter (i.e. Adam) and that which he begot (i.e. his progeny); (Al-Balad 90:3)
Verily, We have created man in toil. (Al-Balad 90:4)
-but ALLAH created man to suffer

-we were not created to live in a bed of roses
-ALLAH will answer the du'a he makes for his son
-ALLAH created man in toil
And by the begetter (i.e. Adam) and that which he begot (i.e. his progeny); (Al-Balad 90:3)
-so why take Marijuana or sniff Heroine?
And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits,
but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.). (Al-Baqarah 2:155)
Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall
return." (Al-Baqarah 2:156)
-ALLAH promised to test us with something of fear,

-hunger, and loss of wealth, lives and fruits
-but the glad tidings are for the patient ones
-Shaikh found a sister in Jamaica who was wonderful
-she was the first to the Masjid when the Adhan was called
-she pampered her guests
-so Shaikh told her husband how wonderful she was
-but the husband told Shaikh that he wasn’t aware of her condition
-she drank alcohol
-because her favorite son drowned
-so she drank alcohol to numb the pain because she couldn’t come to terms
-with the Decree of ALLAH when her son died
-Shaikh saw people smoking Marijuana in prison
Shaikh Faisal - My Life In Prison

-so, to numb the pain, they do crack-cocaine
-they are so desperate for drugs that they will kill for it
-they also have alcohol in prison
-they are in desperate need for drugs and alcohol
-they need it to numb the pain
-emotional pain is worse than physical pain

Resurrection." (Ta-Ha 20:124)

21st WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS WAHN (COWARDICE)
-the Muslims are suffering from Wahn

-that is why they use the fabricated hadith that says Jihadun Nafs is Jihad Akbar
Ibn Taiymiyyah said in Al-Furqan PP. 44-45: "This hadith has no sources and nobody whosoever
in the field of Islamic knowledge has narrated it. Jihad against the disbelievers is the most noble
of actions and moreover it is the most important action for the mankind.""We have come back
from the minor jihad to the major one" someone asked: "What is the major Jihad O Messenger of
Allah?" he replied: "Jihad of the nafs," (This report, collected by Bayhaqi is fabricated as
mentioned in Mannaar as-Subl of Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah)
-jihad is the noblest act of Ibadat

-Ibn Qayyim said this hadith stinks
Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or
are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth
and their lives. Allah has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and
their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allah has promised good (Paradise), but
Allah has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge
reward; (An-Nisa 4:95)
-they quote this hadith because they wish to avoid Jihad

-when we hear people quote this hadith, we say to them, "Ittaqillah"
"Whoever tells a lie against me (intentionally) then (surely) let him occupy, his seat in Hell-fire."
-because anyone who lies on Rasulallah will find his seat in the Fire
Do you consider the providing of drinking water to the pilgrims and the maintenance of Al-Masjid-
al-Haram (at Makkah) as equal to the worth of those who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and
strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah? They are not equal before Allah. And Allah guides not
those people who are the Zalimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers). (At-Tawbah 9:19)
-those in Jihad are far better than those who take care of the Haraam
-the Mujahideen are striving with their lives
-to give water to the pilgrims is a great deed but they cannot compare themselves to the Mujahideen
-we appreciate the ones who give water
-to the pilgrims in the Haraam but the Mujahideen are incomparable
-this hadith is not in Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud, Nasai...etc
-this Hadith is quoted on the Mimbar
-where did they get it from?
-Ibn Taymiyyah said it is nowhere to be found
Mu’awiyah started Kingship in Islam

"When you involve yourselves in interest bearing business transactions, and you hold on to the
tails of cows, and you are pleased with agriculture (i.e. the land) and you abandon making Jihad in
the Cause of Allah, Allah will send humiliation down upon you. He will not remove it from you until
you return back to your Religion." [Abu Dawood and al-Bayhaqee - Authentic Hadith told by
Ahmad]
Ma'mun practiced al Walaa wal Baraa, did Jihad,

-and implemented the Shari'ah
-Ma'mun was the son of Harun ar-Rashid
Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you
victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people, (At-Tawbah 9:14)
ALLAH made the Muslims a fitna for the Kuffaar

-the oil in Muslim land is a fitna
-ALLAH will punish the Kuffaar by our hands
-and give us victory over the Kuffaar
Nothing will heal the pain we have in our hearts for the Muslims Chechnya, Bosnia, occupied
Palestine and Kashmir, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen, etc than Jihad
may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for
you. Allah knows but you do not know. (Al-Baqarah 2:216)
We dislike Qitaal (fighting) but it carries great good for us

-ALLAH knows but we don’t know
-we abandon the battlefields and let the Kuffaar kick us like a football

-they share panel with Kuffaar
-Tahirul Qaadir is a Barelvis
-he had a conference with 14, 000 Barelvis
-he called the Mujahideen Khawarij and Terrorists
-Salah behind the people who
-call the Mujahideen Khawarij and Terrorists is Bautil
Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find for
them. (An-Nisa 4:145)
-the Munafiqeen will dwell at the lowest depths of the Fire

-when a person supports Jihad, calls for Shari'ah, you may pray behind him
Those who give respect to a bid'ati (innovator in Religion) surely will be counted as a helper of
destroying Islam. (Mishkat Sharif, p.31) (From The Virtues of Sunnah and the evils of Bid'ah in
Islam by Mufti Sayyid 'Abd al-Rahim Sahib Lajpuri)
Tahirul Qaadir called the Sikhs, Hindus, and Jews OUR brothers
-the Jews kill our Muslims in occupied Palestine,

Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you
victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people, (At-Tawbah 9:14)
ALLAH deliberately put the oil in Muslim lands

-so that we would be forced into Jihad
-we are the Ummah of Jihad
-and Jihad is compulsory upon us till Yawm al-Qiyamat
-purpose of Jihad is to remove Fitna (Kufr wa Shirk)
The Prophet (saw) "Whoever dies and he does not fight nor does he ever intend to fight (prepares
for it) then he dies on a branch of hypocrisy" (Muslim)
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah)
and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allah (Alone). But if they cease, let there be no
transgression except against Az-Zalimûn (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.) (Al-Baqarah
2:193)

intense battle and slandering innocent, unknowing, believing women." Muslim & Bukhari
-some non-hijabis have Kuffaar boyfriends

-the first thing they seized was his laptop
-the man who seized his laptop was trained by the CIA
-the Muslim doesn’t have haraam addiction
25th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TO BE TOO TRUSTING
There will be years of deceit, in which a truthful person will be disbelieved and a liar will be
believed"that just before the Dajjal there will be treacherous years in which the liar will be
believed and the truthful person disbelieved, and the trustworthy person will be regarded as
unreliable and the unreliable person will be trusted..." [Ahmad]
One of the signs of the Day of Judgment is to be too trusting

-they will believe the con artist but not the righteous man
-you open your email and a man says he’s from Nigeria
-and says he needs details of your bank account
-and give away 1000s of dollars
-they call it "tempt your greed"
-you cannot hand over money till you test/verify the goods
-you can look up the items on the Internet,
-but you cannot buy the items
-you need to inspect them first
A believer is not bitten from the same hole twice.” (Related by Al-Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Abu
Dawood and Ibn Majah)
These con artists always use "Kidney Dialysis" to con people

-some of you have been conned several times
-but a believer does not get bitten in the same hole twice
-a man can even try to seduce your wife
-we are living in the last days
-maybe we have forgotten that

{this is the 4th night in a 4 night series concluding the 31 weaknesses of mankind}
These weaknesses are found among males and females

-this is why we call this the weaknesses of MANKIND
-these weaknesses are found among everyone, from any race or religion
-how can you be a Muslim and attend a class called alcohol anonymous?
-a kaafir psychologist has to analyze you? You should be ashamed
-these are not the weaknesses of the kuffaar
-because it is found among Muslims and non Muslims
ANOTHER WEAKNESS IS GOSSIP

-many are involved in gossip
-newspapers and tabloids run off of gossip
-there is newspaper in the UK: The Sun
-not even the Muslim prisoners will read this magazine
-the magazine only talks about who is having an affair with who
-that newspaper has ruined many politicians’ careers
-they have a file on every single politician in the UK,
-if they step out of line, they show them the file and warn
-hem and say: if you don’t shut up, you’re going to be finished
MARK OATEN http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Oaten
Mark Oaten was a liberal politician;

-he was very outspoken against Tony Blair,
-he was against the war in Iraq
-the media had a file on him and when he
-became vocal in criticizing Tony Blair,
-the media came out and said he had an affair with a man
-his career was finished
-they use these files to blackmail people
-but if you live your life a clean life,
-how can the kuffar have a file on you?
When Shaikh was living in the UK,

-all the kuffar could say is: Shaikh Faisal is anti Semitic
-to be called anti Semitic is NOT a disgrace in the Muslim community
-the Jews are killing the Muslims in occupied Palestine
-so when the media said shaikh Faisal is anti Semitic, the Muslims said: SO WHAT! ~
The Israelis use their gunship to kill muslimah relaxing on beaches in Gaza
-this sickened the Turkish prime minister
-he left a meeting and told the Jews
-I can’t sit with you, you kill children
-the Turkish prime minister was given a heroes welcome
-when he went back to Turkey
The kaafir newspaper, The Sun

-a Muslim will never be found with this newspaper
-no one in the UK can become prime minister
-without the support of The Sun
-one tried, Neil Kenner, but he was laughed at;
-he campaigned in the election but he lost terribly
this newspaper is pro zionist and anti Muslim
Tony Blair had to beg Rupert Murdoch (the owner of the Sun) to become prime minister
-so people like to listen to gossip, they find it entertaining
-women gossip a lot when they are bored
-it is a sign of weak character when you gossip
ANOTHER WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

-some are so evil, they beat up wives in front of their kids
-these wife beaters do not have the balls to fight a man
-that’s why they pick on women
-the beauty in Islam is not in wearing white thobes, or to speak Arabic,
-or to have tall minarets, it’s not in glossy books
-the beauty in Islam is how one treats people
Ibadah: relationship with ALLAH
-Mu’aamala: how you treat people
The most perfect of the believers is the best of you in character,

- and the best of you are those among you who are best to their wives."
- Tirmidhi
For you to be a public speaker

-and you treat people good outside of the home,
-but you treat your wife bad at home
-this means you are showing off
-for a public speaker, you treat strangers with kindness
-but you treat your wife and kids with harshness
-that means you are showing off
-if you were sincere, you would have treated your wife and kids beautifully:
-charity begins at home
ANOTHER WEAKNESS IS PEDOPHILIA
25th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TO BE TOO TRUSTING

-you run into people too easily and you TRUST them,
-even though we are in the last days
-how can anyone sit at home and believe someone from Nigeria
-who demands money for service charge
-some are so stupid, they send 200,000 USD to strangers
-If you don’t use your aql, you have lost your status as a human being
-aql = your intellect
-meet a stranger on the road and sells you fake gold,
-and you bought it - you did not use your aql, you don’t THINK
Verily! The worst of (moving) living creatures with Allah are the deaf and the dumb, those who
understand not (i.e. the disbelievers). (Al-Anfal 8:22)
You are a dabba (a beast) when you lose your Aql

-ALLAH said these people are no longer human
-they are beasts
ALLAH SWT said 8:22 - you are no longer a man,
-you are a dabaa (beast) and you are the WORST of beasts
-because you did not use aql
-some boys in high school smoke weed and then give it to monkey
-and the monkey had a smoke and became so happy
-and started to run around the Zoo
-the monkey imitates what he sees
26th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS UNGRATEFULNESS UNTO ALLAH AND TO MAN
The Prophet said: "I was shown the Hell-fire and that the majority of its dwellers were women who
were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He
replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good
(charitable deeds) done to them. Bukhari Vol 1 No 28 Narrated Ibn 'Abbas Vol 1 No 28
-if you do 99 and leave off 1, she is angry at you

-ungratefulness is a major sin, not minor
By the (steeds) that run, with panting (breath), (Al-'Adiyat 100:1)

-majority of women are in the Fire due to the
-ungratefulness they show to their husbands
-Jawb al-Kasam
Verily! Man (disbeliever) is ungrateful to his Lord; (Al-'Adiyat 100:6)
And to that fact he bears witness (by his deeds); (Al-'Adiyat 100:7)
And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth. (Al-'Adiyat 100:8)
-Jawab al-Kasam: the Anser to the swear (aoth)

-some believe the "end justifies the means"
Machiavelli was of that creed

-Shaytan is ever ungrateful to his Lord
-kuffaar: ungratefulness
-if you have a son and he graduates as a doctor
-you have spent 1000s of dollars for his education and he was a top student
-thereafter, he says to his father, "You are not my father but another man is."
-his biological father would be greatly hurt
-likewise, mankind denies ALLAH
-ALLAH gave them all the blessings
-yet they take another deity besides ALLAH
-a plane was about to crash
-the Christians in the plane say "Christ Jesus, save us!"
-but the Muslims didn’t say that
"O two companions of the prison! Are many different lords (gods) better or Allah, the One, the
Irresistible? (Yusuf 12:39)
Yusuf (as) gave dawah to the prisoners: 12:39

-he gave Dawah to the Tawheed of ALLAH
-Prophet Yusuf told the prisoners that there is only ONE LORD : ALLAH
-when you pronounce Jesus (as) as Lord,
-you have been treacherous to ALLAH
-whenever a man is ungrateful to ALLAH ,
-he will always be ungrateful to human beings
-when a man is treacherous to ALLAH,
-he will always be treacherous to man
As for those who strive hard in Us (Our Cause), We will surely guide them to Our Paths (i.e.
Allah's Religion - Islamic Monotheism). And verily, Allah is with the Muhsinûn (good doers)." (Al-
'Ankabut 29:69)
The boat was about to capsize,

-the pagans did not call upon their false gods
-they didn’t call upon the idols of the kaba, they called upon ALLAH !
-when the kuffar saw the boat sinking,
-they didn’t call unto Lat, Uzza, or Manat
-they called upon ALLAH SWT alone
-they called upon ALLAH with Mukhlisina Lahuddeen
-they made sure they didn’t associate with ALLAH
-and promised ALLAH they wouldn’t commit Shirk if they were saved
-and the pagans begged ALLAH SWT : if they bring them safety,
-they promise ALLAH SWT to worship ALLAH SWT alone
-when they were saved they returned back to worshipping idols
If ALLAH SWT brings them safety

-but as soon as they were saved, they worshipped idols
-someone asked Shaikh, "Why did ALLAH save these Kuffaar?"
-the Answer is: ALLAH will use this incident against them on Yawm al-Qiyamat
-when you go to a store to shoplift, and the camera catches the man in the act
-when they are at trial and the jury sees the video : they say GUILTY
-the same way, the kiraman katibin are recording
Therefore ALLAH SWT: anyone who does an atoms weight of good

-will see it on the day of Judgment,
-and anyone who does an atoms weight of evil will see it on the day of Judgment
So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant), shall see it. (Az-Zalzalah
99:7)
And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant), shall see it. (Az-Zalzalah
99:8)
The Sahabahs were scared of these 2 ayahs
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: The servant (who
conceals) the faults of others in this world, Allah would conceal his faults on the Day of
Resurrection. [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith #6267]
THERE IS AN EXCEPTION : ALLAH SWT MAY CONCEALS ONES SIN
You’re allowed to expose and disgrace a wicked scholar and a spy

-there is no backbiting for them
-but if the person is an ordinary person, going about their business
-you are NOT allowed to expose or disgrace that person
27th WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS FORGETFULNESS

-forgetfulness is dangerous because when we forget, it can be very expensive
-can you imagine traveling 3-4 hours to the airport and you forget your passport?
-sometimes forgetfulness costs you your life
-when you are sinful, you cannot retain knowledge
-the reason why forgetfulness is a problem is because people are sinful -
Imam Shafi'i saw the leg of a woman because the wind blew
waqee3
Imam Shafi’i saw that the breeze of the wind blew the dress of the woman and it exposed her leg - this
caused the imam to forget some verses of the Quran; he went to his Shaikh Waqee'and he was advised
to give up sins; Imam Shafi'I was a scholar, a poet, and a doctor; Shaikh Waqee' I did not know that Imam
Shafi’Ii saw the leg on a woman; Imam Shafi’i wrote a poem about this: I complained to waqee about my
bad memory, and he told me to give up my sins, and he said "know that knowledge is a blessing of
ALLAH, and ALLAH does not give knowledge to sinners”
Knowledge is a Light and it is taken away when we sin

-the less sin you have, the more you can retain the knowledge
-but when you are sinful, it destroys your memory
-the Sahabah had photographic memories
-Imam Shafi’i - ALL he saw was the leg of woman,
-and it caused him to forget Quranic verses
-imagine us who live in the west that see women exposed everyday
-no wonder we only so little surahs from the Quran
-the longest ayah in the Qur'an talk about money
-ALLAH SWT told us that when we lend money,
-to write it down and to call 2 witnesses
-and make four copies of that transaction
O you who believe! When you contract a debt for a fixed period, write it down. Let a scribe write it
down in justice between you. Let not the scribe refuse to write as Allah has taught him, so let him
write.... (Al-Baqarah 2:282)
Because you may lend a person 5000 dollars, but he says you only lent him 500 -
-we must write it down because we are forgetful
-why does ALLAH SWT tell us to write it down? because we are forgetful
-when the Sahabahs used to become senile, the scholars
-would no longer collect Hadiths from them
-the senile people cannot be in charge of their own money
-imagine you having breakfast at 8 o clock,
-and by 12 you forget what you had for breakfast because of senility?
-their family members must be in charge of their money
28TH WEAKNESS IS TO BE IN HASTE

-ALLAH SWT told us in 17:1
-that man, by nature, is impatient
And man invokes (Allah) for evil as he invokes (Allah) for good and man is ever hasty [i.e., if he is
angry with somebody, he invokes (saying): "O Allah! Curse him, etc." and that one should not do,
but one should be patient]. (Al-Isra 17:11)
-we want things to be done on the spot

-you don’t like to hear "come back tomorrow”
-you want things to happen right on the spot -
-some many advertisements say "while you wait.."
-they will take care of your needs on the spot
-that is because we are impatient
-we are living in a fast society
-the old technology is now obsolete
-we all want a fast computer
-not even the dog will use a slow computer!
-we are living in a fast society
-the new faster technology replaces the old, slower technology
-the first thing our father Adam did was to sneeze
"Taste you your trial (burning)! This is what you used to ask to be hastened!" (Adh-Dhariyat 51:14)
-he sneezed as soon as the soul entered his body***

ALLAH SWT told the kuffar in 51:14
When Adam an s reached for the fruits of Jannah, but he fell

-because the soul had not entered his legs - that is when ALLAH SWT said:
-mankind, by nature, is impatient
ALLAH SWT told the kuffar in 51:14 >>
"Taste you your trial (burning)! This is what you used to ask to be hastened!" (Adh-Dhariyat 51:14)
-are the kuffar ready for judgment?
-we want everything in haste
Sahl ibn Sa’d Sa’id reported that Allah’s Messenger said, “Deliberation is from Allah, but haste is
from the devil”. (Tirmidhi 2019)
-the Rasul said : Haste is from the shaitan

-and haste (al-Ajl) is from Shaytan
-the reason why Shaytan wants us to do things in haste
-is because there is a format for everything in life
-if you mix up the format, you do everything all over again
-this causes the shaitan to laugh at you
29th WEAKNESS : TO BE DISOBEDIENT TO ALLAH AND HIS RASUL SAW

- they struggle to keep up with the rules of haraam and halal
- they search for a shaikh that makes haraam things halal or easy for them
Shaikh in Capetown spent Ramadan with Shaikh Hakim Quick

-Shaikh Hakim Q. took him to a Maliki Masjid
HAKIM QUICK SHOWED SHAIKH FAISAL A SUFI MASJID
-Ian Dallas was the imam there and he told the women
-Shaikh Hakim Q. took him to a Maliki Masjid
- when Shaikh Faisal was in cape town,
FAISAL A SUFI MASJID

-Ian Dallas was the imam there and he told the women
-you don’t have to wear the hijab because its a cultural thing
-therefore the women who went to
-that masjid dressed like catwalk models
-when Shaikh Faisal was in UK -- another person told the people
-you’re allowed to go to bed with the women of UK
because its dar ul harb and they are concubines
-he also told his people they can do credit card fraud
-so this persons followers had kaafira girl friends
-and walked around with expensive clothing, etc
-enter into Islam wholeheartedly
O you who believe! Enter perfectly in Islam (by obeying all the rules and regulations of the Islamic
religion) and follow not the footsteps of Shaitan (Satan). Verily! He is to you a plain enemy (Al-
Baqarah 2:208)
ENTER INTO ISLAM WHOLEHEARTEDLY

-you cannot have one foot in Islam and one foot into Communism,
-male chauvinism, or feminism, etc
-some people want to mix Islam with other cultures
-because they are struggling to keep up with the rules
-so when they come into Islam, they bring their culture with them
-there is a place in London called Pekham , the black reverts ,
-when they come into Islam, they bring their ganja,
-and reggae music with them
-so people bring their vices over into Islam with them,
-they cant come clean
-you cannot have one foot in Islam,
-and one foot in your kaafir culture
-for example : Muslims who claim who follow Islam
-but celebrate Christmas
-they justify their kufr
-Jesus was a Muslim, so what we are doing is Halal
30TH WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS ANGER

-Rasulallah told a man not to get angry and to control it
Abu Hurayra reported that a man said to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
"Advise me." He said, "Do not get angry." He repeated his request several times and the Prophet
said, "Do not get angry." [al-Bukhari]
“Anger is from Shaitan and Shaitan was created from the fire and nothing can extinguish fire
except water. Therefore if anyone of you gets angry, perform wadhu”. Ahmad 5/152
Anger is from Shaytan

-haste is not the only thing from Shaytan
-the shaitan wants you to become angry
-because when you are angry you say and do things
-which you wish you did not say or do
-when you are angry, you did things you later regret,
-and say things you also regret
-when you become angry the Sunnah is:
-say Audhubillah min ash-Shaytan nir Rajeem
-when you get angry, sit down
-you can do less damage sitting down than standing; do wadhu
Three women a week are killed in the UK -- why?

-3 women are killed every week in UK
-because these people failed miserably to control their anger
"The man is not a good wrestler; the strong man is in fact the person who controls himself at the
time of anger." MUSLIM
31st WEAKNESS OF MANKIND IS TO USE THE MISTAKES OF OTHERS TO JUSTIFY YOUR SINS
-so, a man may be doing something haraam, and when you tell him
-to FEAR ALLAH and to stop it, he says: my neighbor is a hafiz and has a girlfriend,
-so why are you picking on me?
- this is a weakness of mankind : using mistakes of others to justify ones own sins
Say: "O you mankind! Now truth (i.e. the Qur'an and Prophet Muhammad SAW), has come to you
from your Lord. So whosoever receives guidance, he does so for the good of his own self, and
whosoever goes astray, he does so to his own loss, and I am not (set) over you as a Wakil
(disposer of affairs to oblige you for guidance)." (Yunus 10:108)
-this is the ayah you bring t those who like to use the mistakes of others to justify their own sins
-some people like to use the fitna of Ali and Mu’awiyah to behave badly
-some use the Fitna between Ali and Mu’awiyah to justify their sins
-at the battle of Siffin
Hasan Al Basri quoted 2:134
That was a nation who has passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned and
you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do. (Al-Baqarah 2:134)
-they also use the Fitna between Ai'sha and Ali to justify their sins
-when Hasan al Basri was approached regarding the fitna of Ali and Mu’awiyah,
-he quoted 2:134 as a response
-what a beautiful answer given by Hasan Al Basri

The 70 Major Sins

Edited and formatted by BintZaki and AT19
Part 1 - September 9, 2015
Part 2 - September 12, 2015
THE 70 MAJOR SINS - PART 1
How do you know when a sin is major or minor?
If the punishment of Allah was mentioned, the sin is major for example, the punishment for theft is to cut
the right hand of the thief at the wrist, and the punishment for drinking alcohol is 80 lashes. We know that
these two sins are major because their punishments were mentioned.
A sin is major if the Quran or Hadith says "The curse of Allah is on so and so…”. Likewise, a sin is major
if the Quran or Hadith says on the Day of Judgement Allah wont look at so and so or speak to him.
It is worthy of mentioning that not every major sin is major kufr, this is where the khawaraj went
astray. They didn't fine tune their Tawheed. They paint every kufr with the same brush and claim kufr is
kufr.
Drinking alcohol and doing zina are major sins but not major kufr so the Muslim who drinks alcohol or
commits zina is still a Muslim. However, if a Muslim does black magic he is no longer a Muslim because
black magic is a major kufr that ejects you outside the fold of Islam.
The Khawarij paint every kufr with the same brush and make takfir on Muslims who drink alcohol or
commit zina. This is because they are jahil in regards to matters of tawheed.
SIN 1: MAJOR SHIRK
Major shirk is to worship a false deity. Whoever dies in a state of committing major shirk has no
hope. Hence, he will be in hell-fire to abide forever. About him, Allah said:
Verily, Allah forgives not that partners should be set up with him in worship, but He forgives
except that (anything else) to whom He pleases, and whoever sets up partners with Allah in
worship, he has indeed invented a tremendous sin. (An-Nisa: 43)
Because the pagans have no hope in the hereafter, since they die in a state of major shirk, we cannot ask
Allah to forgive them, even if they were our parents who died as mushrikeen. Allah forbade the Prophet
(saw) to pray and seek forgiveness for his uncle, Abu Talib, who died as a mushrik. Hence, Allah said:
It is not (proper) for the Prophet and those who believe to ask Allah's Forgiveness for the
Mushrikun (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) even though they
be of kin, after it has become clear to them that they are the dwellers of the Fire (because they
died in a state of disbelief). (At-Tawbah: 113)
Also, there is no excuse for the shirk of Ibadah, i.e. worshipping a false deity. According to the wicked
scholars, if a person who worships a false deity in the dunya, Allah will forgive him for his shirk in the
Hereafter because while he was worshipping a false deity in the dunya, he was ignorant and did not know
better. These wicked scholars are promoting the ideology that there is excuse of ignorance for anyone
who worshipped a false deity in the dunya. The following Quranic verse refutes this claim of the wicked
scholars:
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their loins, their
seed (or from Adam's loin his offspring) and made them testify as to themselves (saying) : "Am I
not your Lord?" They said: "Yes! We testify," lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection:
"Verily, we have been unaware of this." (Al-A'raf: 172)
Allah Took away the excuse of ignorance in the above Ayah. Therefore, the man who worships a false
deity in the dunya will abide in hell-fire forever in the Akhira [hereafter]. The following Hadith about the
plight of the Prophet’s (saw) father is another evidence to prove that there is no excuse of ignorance for
people who worship a false deity:
Narrated from Anas (RA) that a man said: “O Messenger of Allah, where is my father?” He said:
“In Hell.” When he turned away he called him back and said: “My father and your father are in
Hell.” [Sahih Muslim (Vol. 1, pg. 191) No. 203]
SIN 2: TO DABBLE IN BLACK MAGIC
The practitioners of black magic are infidels outside the fold of Islam, and this is the ijma of the scholars
past and present. The following Quranic verse is the evidence for making takfir on those who dabble in
black magic:
Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic and such
things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of these two
(angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, "We are only for trial, so disbelieve not (by
learning this magic from us)" And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause
separation between man and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's
Leave. And they learn that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the
buyers of it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which
they sold their ownselves, if they but knew. (Al-Baqarah: 102)
It is unfortunate that many Muslims in India, Pakistan, and Africa dabble in black magic and the ulama in
their communities did not tell them that magic ejects them outside the fold of Islam. The Holy Prophet
(saw) has commanded us to kill the practitioners of magic in the following Hadith:
SIN 3: MURDER
Murder is to kill a person who is innocent.

Execution is different to murder. Execution is capital punishment for the criminal. Murder is a major sin;
therefore, murder is haram but execution is halal if it is carried out by the Islamic State. It is haram for a
layman to carry out an execution. Only a Qadi in Shariah Court has the authority to pass a verdict for
someones execution. About murder, Allah said:
And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath
and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him. (An-Nisa: 93)
When you kill a believer, you take on his sins. Therefore, if this person use to drink alcohol and commit
zina these sins of his will be put on your scales on the Day of Recompense because you killed him
wrongfully.
Abdullah Ibn Mas‘ud (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “No soul is killed
unlawfully, but there is a share of the sin on the first son of Adam, because he was the first one to
set the precedent of killing.” [Related by al-Bukhari (3335) and Muslim (1677)]
SIN 4: RIBA
The Arabic word “Riba” means interest. There are two types of interest, quantity and quality. If we swap
gold for silver it becomes interest in quality. And if we lend $1000 and charge $1500 in payment it
becomes interest in quantity. Allah blesses charity and curses interest. Interest is a major sin because
the curse of Allah is on those who charge interest. When you give charity, Allah will increase your wealth:
Allah will destroy Riba (usury) and will give increase for Sadaqat (deeds of charity, alms, etc.) And
Allah likes not the disbelievers, sinners. (Al-Baqarah: 276)
Allah will declare war on those who dabble in riba:
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allah and give up what remains (due to you) from Riba (usury)
(from now onward), if you are (really) believers. (Al-Baqarah: 278)
And if you do not do it, then take a notice of war from Allah and His Messenger but if you repent,
you shall have your capital sums. Deal not unjustly (by asking more than your capital sums), and
you shall not be dealt with unjustly (by receiving less than your capital sums). (Al-Baqarah: 279)
When I was in the University, I asked my shaikh how a person could be fought when the Prophet (SAW)
is no longer with us? He said it is the job of the Caliph to wage jihad on people who do riba.
Imam Abu Hanifa (RH) said any country who uses riba is dar ul Harb and he uses the above Ayah as his
evidence, i.e. 2:279
Many countries do not send troops to fight Muslims around the world but Imam Abu Hanifa has still
categorized them as Dar ul Harb. This is because of their riba system. They use the accumulated wealth
to cheat the people.This puts them at war with Allah and makes the country dar ul Harb. Imam Abu
Hanifa (RH) said you can bank your money in riba banks if you live in dar ul Harb with the intention to
collect riba. The following Hadith explains to the Ummah how grave riba is:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "Riba has seventy segments, the least
serious being equivalent to a man committing adultery with his own mother." [Sunan Ibn Majah
(3/337) No. 2274 and Mustadrak al-Haakim (2/43) No. 2259]
Abu Hanifa also said it is permissible to sell alcohol to the kuffar in dar ul Harb. Ahmed ibn Hanbal
disagreed with Abu Hanifa regarding Muslims selling alcohol to non Muslims.
SIN 5: TO STEAL FROM THE ORPHAN
Orphans are vulnerable. Some adults like to take charge of their wealth so as to rob them. When adults
rob orphans they are only gaining the Hell-fire for themselves; hence Allah said:
Verily, those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, they eat up only a fire into their bellies,
and they will be burnt in the blazing Fire! (An-Nisa: 10)
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "The best house among the
Muslims is the house in which orphans are well treated. The worst house among the Muslims is
the house in which orphans are ill treated. I and the guardian of the orphan will be in the Garden
like that," indicating his two fingers. [al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Bukhari No. 137]
Some people only take charge of the orphan's wealth because they have bad intentions. If a person
knows that they are weak in imaan and cannot be trusted, they should stay far away from the orphans
wealth. They should not expose themselves to temptation.
SIN 6. TO FLEE FROM THE BATTLEFIELD
This is when you flee the battlefield due to cowardice. If you run away to regroup for a counter attack,
that's different and permissible. About this, Allah said:
And whoever turns his back to them on such a day - unless it be a stratagem of war, or to retreat
to a troop (of his own), - he indeed has drawn upon himself wrath from Allah. And his abode is
Hell, and worst indeed is that destination! (Al-Anfal: 16)
To run away due to cowardice is wrong. But you are allowed to run away from the battlefield as a war
tactic. Perhaps you are engaged in a war trick that involves you setting up a trap for the infidels to fall
into. This is a stratagem of war and is perfectly halal.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “War is deceit.” (Narrated by al-
Bukhari, 3029; Muslim, 58).
SIN 7. TO SLANDER A PIOUS BELIEVING MUSLIM WOMAN
In many Muslim communities people like to slander others and accuse them of zina. This is because to
accuse a person of zina is an effective way to ruin their image. It is called character assassination. No
one is allowed to accuse a Muslim of zina unless he can provide four witnesses to say they saw the pen
in the ink. About this, Allah said:
And those who accuse chaste women, and produce not four witnesses, flog them with eighty
stripes, and reject their testimony forever, they indeed are the Fasiqun (liars, rebellious,
disobedient to Allah). (An-Nur: 4)
Verily, those who accuse chaste women, who never even think of anything touching their chastity
and are good believers, are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter, and for them will be a great
torment, (An-Nur: 23)
About zina, the Qadi will ask detailed questions, such as, ‘What position they were making love in’ etc etc.
Each witness has to have the same story, if not, they will receive 80 lashes for slandering a chaste
woman and the case will be thrown out of court. The punishment for slander is 80 lashes. This incident
happened during the time Omar when he was the Caliph as detailed in the below Hadith:
The case of Mughirah bin Shu`bah, in which Ùmar punished Abu Bakrah and the other two eye-
witnesses on the charge of false accusation. A critical study of the entire case shows that this
precedent is not applicable to every case where the crime is not proved by proper evidence. The
facts of the case are that Mughirah bin Sh u`bah, the Governor of Basrah, did not have good
relations with Abu Bakrah, whose house was opposite to his house across the same street. One
day the windows of the two houses were opened by a strong current of wind. When 'Abu Bakrah
got up to close his window, he saw through the opposite window across the street Mughirah in a
state of actual sexual intercourse. He asked three of his friends (Nafì bin Kaladah, and Shibl bin
Ma`bad) who were also sitting with him to stand up and witness what Mughirah was doing. The
friends asked him who was the woman. Abu Bakrah. said that she was Umm Jamil. The next day a
complaint to this effect was sent to Ùmar, who immediately suspended Mughirah and appointed
Abu Musa Ashàri as Governor of Basrah. Mughirah along with the witnesses was called to Al-
Madinah. When they were asked about the case, Abu Bakrah said that they had seen Mughirah
actually committing sexual intercourse with Umm Jamil, but Ziad said that the woman was not
clearly visible and that he could not say definitely whether it was Umm Jamil or not. During the
cross examination, Mughirah proved that they could not have seen the woman distinctly from the
place where they were standing. He also proved that there was a close resemblance between his
wife and Umm Jamil. Besides this, circumstantial evidence also showed that during the Caliphate
of Ùmar, the governor of a province could not have committed this crime in his official residence,
especially when his wife was also living with him. Thus the supposition of Abu Bakrah and his
companions that Mughirah was having sexual intercourse with Umm Jamil, instead of his own
wife, was nothing but a misplaced suspicion. It was for this reason that Ùmar not only acquitted
the accused but also punished Abu Bakrah, Nafì and Shibl as slanderers. It is obvious that this
isolated decision was based on the specific circumstances of the case and not on the principle
that the witnesses must be' punished when they are not able to prove the charge by their
evidence. (For details of this case, see Ahkam al-Qur'an, Ibn al-Àrabi, Vol. II, pp. 88, 89).
Everyday women get killed in Pakistan because people accuse them of zina, they call it honor killing. But
no one saw 'the pen in the ink’, so many innocent Muslim girls got killed. Even if a Muslim girl should
fornicate, the punishment is 100 lashes, not death. Honor killing is culture and not Shariah.
Stay away from the 7 major sins: Shirk, magic, murder, riba, robbing the orphan, fleeing the battlefield
and slandering a pious, believing Muslim woman.
It was narrated from 'Ubaid bin 'Umair that :His father - who was one of the Companions of the
Prophet [SAW] - told him: "A man said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what are the major sins?' He said:
'They are seven; the most grievous of which are associating others with Allah, killing a soul
unlawfully and fleeing (from the battlefield) on the day of the march.'" It is abridged.
Sunan an-Nasa'i 4012: Vol. 5, Book 37, Hadith 4017
Narrated Abu-Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him); ‘The Prophet (SAWS) said: “Avoid the
seven great destructive sins.” The people enquired; ‘O Allah’s Messenger! What are they?’ The
Prophet (SAWS) said: To join others in worship along with Allah, to practise sorcery, to kill the life
that Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law), to eat up usury, to eat
up the orphan’s wealth, to show one’s back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the
time of fighting, and to accuse the chaste women, who never even think of anything touching
chastity and are good believers.” (Bukhari).
SIN 8. REFUSING TO PAY ZAKAH
Zakah is the third pillar of Islam, therefore refusing to pay Zakah is a major sin. Hence, Allah said:
And those who hoard up gold and silver [Al-Kanz: the money, the Zakat of which has not been
paid], and spend it not in the Way of Allah, -announce unto them a painful torment. (At-
Tawbah: 34)
On the Day when that (Al-Kanz: money, gold and silver, etc., the Zakat of which has not been paid)
will be heated in the Fire of Hell and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their
backs, (and it will be said unto them) :-"This is the treasure which you hoarded for yourselves.
Now taste of what you used to hoard." (At-Tawbah: 35)
And let not those who covetously withhold of that which Allah has bestowed on them of His
Bounty (Wealth) think that it is good for them (and so they do not pay the obligatory Zakat). Nay, it
will be worse for them; the things which they covetously withheld shall be tied to their necks like a
collar on the Day of Resurrection. And to Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth;
and Allah is WellAcquainted with all that you do. (Aali Imran: 180)
The Tafsir for Ayah 3:180 is “that which is tied to their necks are snakes”, therefore their wealth will
become snakes wrapped around their necks.
We should know that to withhold Zakah is a major sin because Allah is promising a severe punishment in
the above Ayahs for anyone who withholds Zakah. The following Hadith explains further:
Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said, ‘Whoever Allah makes wealthy and he does
not pay the Zakah due on his wealth, then (on the Day of Resurrection) his wealth will be made in
the likeness of a bald-headed poisonous male snake with two black spots over the eyes. The
snake will encircle his neck and bite his cheeks and proclaim, Ì am your wealth, I am your
treasure.' The Prophet then recited the Ayah, ‘And let not those who are stingy with that which
Allah has bestowed on them of His bounty think that it is good for them. Nay, it will be worse for
them), until the end. (Al-Bukhari and Ibn Hibban)
Allah said there are three conditions to accept a revert as a real Muslim
revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah: 11)
In the above Ayah, Allah laid down three conditions to accept a revert as a real Muslim.
1. Tawbah from kufr and shirk
2. To perform the salah, and
3. Give the zakah
SIN 9. REFUSING TO FAST DURING RAMADAN BECAUSE OF GREED
Fasting during Ramadan is the fourth pillar of Islam. Therefore, anyone who is healthy and strong should
fast. If a healthy person refuses to fast he is considered a zindeeq [heretic] according to the correct
scholarly opinion. The fatwa below explains further:
Whoever does not fast has abandoned one of the pillars of Islam, and is committing a grave major
sin. Indeed some of the salaf were of the view that he is a kaafir [disbeliever] and apostate – we
seek refuge with Allaah from that.
Abu Ya’la narrated in his Musnad from Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The bonds of Islam and the bases of
religion are three, on which Islam was founded. Whoever gives up one of them becomes a kaafir
thereby and it is permissible to shed his blood: the testimony that there is no god but Allaah, the
prescribed prayers and fasting Ramadaan.”
This hadeeth was classed as saheeh by al-Dhahabi, and as hasan by al-Haythami in Majma’ al-
Zawaa’id, 1/48, and by al-Mundhiri in al-Targheeb wa’l-Tarheeb, no. 805, 1486. Classed as da’eef
by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Da’eefah, no. 94.
Al-Dhahabi said in al-Kabaa’ir, p. 64.
Whoever does not fast in Ramadaan without being sick or having any other excuse that allows
him not to fast is more evil than the adulterer or drunkard, indeed they doubted his Islam and
thought that this was zandaqa [heresy].
SIN 10. ABANDON SALAH
Salah is the second pillar of Islam after reciting the shahada. It is not possible for a person to be a
Muslim if they abandon salah. The following hadiths explain further:
On the authority of Abu Huraira (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Fast and you will be
healthy". [Related by Abu Naeem in 'al-Tibbun al-Nabawee' (1/236) No. 113]
Jabir (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Between a man (Muslim) and shirk and
disbelief lies neglect of salah.” [Sahih Muslim (1/8 No. 82, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/13) No. 2620, Sunan
Abu Dawud (4/219) No. 4678, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/181) No. 1078, Sunan An-Nasa'i (1/232) No. 463,
Abdullah ibn Shaqiq Uqayli (RA) reported, saying “The companions of Muhummad (SAW) did not
regard neglect of any of the deeds as disbelief as they did (neglect) of Salah." [Sunan Tirmidhi
(5/14) No. 2622 and Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/4 No. 12 who said it met the conditions of al-Bukhari
and Muslim]
revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah: 11)
Imam Shafi said that to abandon Salah does not eject a person outside the fold of Islam. However,
Ahmad Hanbal said “I beg to differ” so he debated Imam Shaffi on this and brought Surah Tawbah
Verse 11 as his hujjah during the debate. Ahmad ibn Hanbal won the debate.
SIN 11. REFUSING TO MAKE HAJJ WITHOUT A VALID REASON
Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam. Hajj is a duty which mankind owes to Allah. Anyone who denies that Hajj is
compulsory on him has left the fold of Islam. The following Ayah explains further:
And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka'bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those
who can afford the expenses (for one's conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever
disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah
stands not in need of any of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). (Aali Imran: 97)
The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) only made hajj once in his lifetime and he was the best Muslim.
Ali (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: “He who possess enough food for the trip, a
means of transportation to reach to Makkah, and yet does not perform Hajj, then he dies, he would
then die as a Jew or a Christian...” [Sunan Tirmidhi (3/176) No. 812, Bayhaqi in 'Shu'ab al-Iman'
(5/443) No. 3692, Musnad al-Bazzaar (3/87-8 No. 861]
SIN 12. TO DISOBEY OR MISTREAT YOUR PARENTS
Looking after our parents when they become old is a right which our parents have over us. To abandon
our parents without looking after them, is a grave sin in Islam. The only time we can abandon our parents
is if they declare war on Islam. About our parents, Allah said:
And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your
parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of
disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour. And lower unto them the wing
of submission and humility through mercy, and say: "My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as
they did bring me up when I was small." (Al-Isra: 23-24)
Today CNN reported that two children tried to kill their parents for insurance money. Car and life
insurance are haram. it's called money for nothing. People will kill you for life insurance. they do it
everyday to get the money.
911 call: Brothers drugged parents before trying to kill them: "I don't know why they've done this,
I really don't. I guess they want the insurance money. I'm not really
sure.": http://www.11alive.com/story/news/crime/2015/09/08/911-call-brothers-drugged-parents-
before-trying-kill-them/71879306/
It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (RA) said: The Prophet (SAW) ascended the minbar and said:
“Ameen, ameen, ameen.” It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, you ascended the minbar and said,
‘Ameen, ameen, ameen.” He said: “Jibreel (peace be upon him) came to me and said: ‘If Ramadan
comes and a person is not forgiven, he will enter Hell and Allah will cast him far away. Say
Ameen.’ So I said Ameen. He said: ‘O Muhammad, if both or one of a person’s parents are alive
and he does not honour them and he dies, he will enter Hell and Allah will cast him far away. Say
Ameen.’ So I said Ameen. He said: ‘If you are mentioned in a person’s presence and he does not
send blessings upon you and he dies, he will enter Hell and Allah will cast him far away. Say
Ameen.’ So I said Ameen.” [Sahih Ibn Hibban, (3/18? No. 907 and Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah (3/192) No.
1888]
SIN 13. CUT THE TIES OF KINSHIP
You cannot cut the ties with your parents, even if they are kaffir.
Narrated By Jubair bin Mut'im: That he heard the Prophet saying, "The person who severs the
bond of kinship will not enter Paradise." [al-Bukhari (5984) and Muslim (2556)]
Would you then, if you were given the authority, do mischief in the land, and sever your ties of
kinship? Such are they whom Allāh has cursed, so that He has made them deaf and blinded their
sight. (Muhammad: 22-23)
However, if your kafir parents or family members are antagonistic towards Islam, then it is allowed to cut
ties with them because Abraham cut ties with his father when he realized that his father was an enemy of
Allah.
And the request of forgiveness of Abraham for his father was only because of a promise he had
made to him. But when it became apparent to Abraham that his father was an enemy to Allah, he
disassociated himself from him. Indeed was Abraham compassionate and patient. (At-Tawbah
9:114)
SIN 14. TO COMMIT ADULTERY OR FORNICATION
Sex before marriage is called fornication and to have an extramarital love affair is called adultery. Both
are considered major sins, but adultery is worst than fornication. Even though the Arabic word zina covers
fornication and adultery, the punishments are different because the punishment for fornication is 100
lashes while the punishment for adultery is stoning to death.
And come not near to the unlawful sexual intercourse. Verily, it is a Fahishah [i.e. anything that
transgresses its limits (a great sin)], and an evil way (that leads one to Hell unless Allah forgives
him). (Al-Isra: 32)
Allah said in the ayah “DO NOT COME NEAR TO ZINA”. Allah did not say do not commit zina. This
means we should avoid the avenues that lead to zina. Khalwa [seclusion] is one of the avenues that leads
to zina. About this the Rasool (saw) said:
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab: The Prophet said, "...Whenever a man is alone with a woman the
Devil makes a third..." [Musnad Ahmad (1/26) No. 177, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/465) No. 2165, Mustadrak
al-Haakim (1/197) No. 387, Sahih Ibn Hibban (12/399) No. 5586, Nasa'i in 'Sunan al-Kubra' (5/387)
No. 9219]
Allah Mentioned zina and murder in the Ayah below because whenever a society is filled with zina,
murder becomes rife in the society. This is because men kill those who seduce their wives and
daughters.
And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah, nor kill such life as Allah has
forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this
shall receive the punishment. (Al-Furqan: 68)
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "An adulterer, at the time he is committing illegal sexual
intercourse is not a believer". [al-Bukhari (557 and Muslim (57)]
What did the Prophet (SAW) mean by this Hadith? It means he is not a Mu’min during the act, but he is
still a MUSLIM. A Mu’min is on a higher level. There is a difference between a Mu’min and a Muslim. A
Muslim may have major weaknesses in his character like zina and khamr, but a Mu’min doesn’t have
these major weaknesses as a trait in his character.
“Verily the Muslims (those who submit to Allah in Islam) men and women, the Mu’min (believers)
men and women…” (al-Ahzab: 35)
In this ayah, Allah mentions the Muslim and Mu’min together, indicating that there must be a difference
between the two. Whenever there is a comparison between Muslim and Mu’min in a single text, then the
Emaan of the Mu’min is higher in grades than the Muslim.
SIN 15. SODOMY
Allah created us with the natural instinct to be attracted to the opposite sex. Hence, for us to be attracted
to the same sex is an aberration. Homosexuals are enemies of the human race because their lifestyle
means the human race will grind to a halt since gays cannot procreate. About the, Allah said:
And (remember) Lout (Lot), when he said to his people: "Do you commit the worst sin such as
none preceding you has committed in the 'Alamīn (mankind and jinns)? "Verily, you practise your
lusts on men instead of women. Nay, but you are a people transgressing beyond bounds (by
committing great sins)." (Al-A'raf: 80-81)
The gay community tried to refute the above Ayah by claiming when they go to bed with their gay partner,
they don't practice lust, they practice love. They claim this Ayah is not about them.
We say to the gay community we present to you the translation of the Ayah by Sahih International which
is the correct translation of the Ayah. So how would you refute this Ayah below?
Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing
people.” (Al-A'raf:81)
It’s impossible for you to refute the above mentioned Ayah because for you to have an erection for
another man, you need to have a desire which is unholy.
The word "gay Muslim" is an oxymoron because Allah has made takfir on the gay in the Holy Quran.
Hence, Allah said:
So We brought out from therein the believers. But We found not there any household of the
Muslims except one [i.e. Lout (Lot) and his two daughters]. (Adh-Dhariyat 51:35-36)
Oxymoron = contradictory words that cannot come together because they clash
For example, a ‘Shia Masjid’, a ‘Qadiani Masjid’ or a ‘Gay Masjid’. Rather, one should use the term
‘temple’ to describe these places of worship. To say ‘Masjid’ is to insult your religion because a Masjid is
a place where Allah alone is worshipped. About this, Allah said:
And the Masaajid are for Allâh (Alone), so invoke not anyone along with Allâh. (Al-Jinn: 18)
Many Muslims use the phrase Islamic Democracy. This is another oxymoron that has become popular in
the Ummah of Muhammad (saw) to the extent where many Muslims are trying to abandon Jihad and use
the democratic process to attain power. These Muslims who believe in democracy got a kick in the teeth
in Algeria in 1988. Then they got a kick in the teeth again in 2013 in Egypt. Muhammad Morsi thought the
way forward was the ballot not the bullet, so he tried to use the democratic process to establish Islam in
Egypt. The Muslims got a kick in the teeth twice, yet the Prophet (saw) said:
"A believer is not bitten from the same hole twice.” [Related by al-Bukhari (6133) and Muslim (299]
Anas Ibn Malik narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "A believer is shrewd, sharp and
careful." [Quda'ee (d. 454 H) in 'Musnad al-Shihab' (Vol. 1 pg. 107) No. 128]
The great scholar of Islam, Imam Shawkani, wrote a chapter about punishing gays in his book Nayl al-
Awtar. Hence, he said:
7/p122-124.
Talib.
time of Abu Bakr.
then he is stoned.
That there is no prescribed punishment, rather it is left up to the Imam to perform Ta'zir, and this
was narrated from Abu Hanifah, and one narration from Ash-Shafi'i, and others.
specify which way of killing is the strongest. [Imam Ash-Shawkani in "Nayl Al-Awtar" , Vol. 7/p122-
124].
The reason why the Caliphs burnt the bodies of the gays after killing them was because the families of
the gays will argue with you about burying the gay in Muslim graveyards. Abu Bakr and Ali were very wise
to burn their bodies.
SIN 16. LYING ON ALLAH OR HIS RASOOL (SAW)
Lying on Allah or His Rasool (saw) is not an ordinary lie because people who lie on Allah or His Rasool
(saw) use these lies to make up a false religion. Therefore, these lies are zandaqa and eject the liar
outside the fold of Islam. About lying on Allah, Allah said:
And who does more wrong than the one who invents a lie against Allāh, while he is being invited
to Islām? And Allāh guides not the people who are Zālimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers and
disbelievers) folk. (As-Saff: 7)
Speaking about Allah without any knowledge is also lying on Allah. Speaking about Allah without any
knowledge is also zandaqa. Hence, Allah said:
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "(But) the things that my Lord has indeed forbidden are AlFawāhish
(great evil sins, every kind of unlawful sexual intercourse, etc.) whether committed openly or
secretly, sins (of all kinds), unrighteous oppression, joining partners (in worship) with Allāh for
which He has given no authority, and saying things about Allāh of which you have no knowledge."
(Al-A'raf: 33)
The following Hadith is about lying on the Prophet (saw). The seat that the liar will occupy in the Hell-fire
is a permanent seat because the one who lies on the Prophet (saw) deliberately is a kaafir:
Abdullah ibn Amr (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, Convey from me (to the
absent) even one verse. And narrate from the Banu Isra’il there is no harm in that. If anyone lies
about me deliberately then let him take his seat in Hell.” [Tirmidhi 2678, Ahmed 6496, Bukhari
3461]
17. A LEADER WHO DECEIVES HIS PEOPLE

He who deceives us is not one of us and this also includes a leader who is deceptive and oppressive
towards the people
Abu Hurayra (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "Anyone who carries arms
against us is not one of us. Anyone who cheats us is not one of us." [Sahih Muslim, Book 1,
Hadith #182]
Even though a leader has weaknesses, you are not allowed to topple him only if you see clear kufr.
Justice is important for the continuity and success of every society politically, economically and
socially. In regards to justice, Allah said:
O you who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allāh, even though it be against
yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, be he rich or poor, Allāh is a Better Protector to both
(than you). So follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest you may avoid justice, and if you distort
your witness or refuse to give it, verily, Allāh is Ever WellAcquainted with what you do. (An-Nisa:
135)
When you refuse to give testimony or distort the testimony, you can be charged with conspiracy to pervert
the course of justice. When you distort your testimony, it causes the wrong person to be punished for a
crime he did not commit. This is the ultimate injustice.
Sheikh Ibn Taymiyyah said, “Allah supports the just state even if it is unbelieving, but He does not
support the unjust state even if it believes.” [Ibn Taymiyyah, Majmu' Al-Fatawa 28/63]
SIN 18. PRIDE AND ARROGANCE
Luqman was grooming his son to be a dai’e [caller to Islam], and he warned his son against pride and
arrogance because this attitude will turn the people away from him and cause his dawah to fail. Hence,
Luqman said to his son:
"And turn not your face away from men with pride, nor walk in insolence through the earth. Verily,
Allāh likes not each arrogant boaster. (Luqman 31:1
The Holy Prophet (saw) warned his Ummah about pride in the following Hadith:
It Is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud that the Apostle of Allah (SAW), observed: He
who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of pride shall not enter Paradise. A person
(amongst his hearers) said: Verily a person loves that his dress should be fine, and his shoes
should be fine. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: Verily, Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace. Pride
is disdaining the truth (out of self-conceit) and contempt for the people. [Sahih Muslim (1/93) No.
91]
Infidels like Nimrod, the Pharaoh, Abu Lahab and Abu Jahl realized Islam was the truth, but they chose to
reject Islam and died as kuffar all in the name of pride. These kuffar are now condemned to the Hell-fire
to abide forever because of their rejection of Islam. These four infidels had the privilege to meet the most
noble Prophets of Allah like Abraham, Moses and Muhammad (saw). In spite of being blessed to meet
these noble Prophets and heard the message of Islam from their Holy lips, they chose to reject Islam and
die as kuffar all in the name of Pride. The Pharaoh acknowledged in his heart that Musa brought the truth,
but he rejected the message in the name of pride. About the Pharaoh, Allah said:
And they rejected them, while their [inner] selves were convinced thereof, out of injustice and
haughtiness. So see how was the end of the corrupters. (An-Naml 27:14)
SIN 19. UNGRATEFUL TO ALLAH OR THE SERVANTS OF ALLAH

Ungratefulness to Allah or the servants of Allah is a major sin that will cause a person to be in the Hell-
fire. This is because a person who is ungrateful is denying Allah’s bounties. The following Hadith
explains the seriousness of ungratefulness:
Narrated Abu Sa'id al-Khudri: Once Allah's Messenger went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer)
on 'Eid-al-Adha or al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, "O women! Give alms,
as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)." They asked, "Why
is it so, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your
husbands." [Sahih Bukhari (1/6 No. 304]
The Rasool (SAW) saw women as the majority of the inhabitants of hell because they were ungrateful to
their husbands.
SIN 20. TAKING INTOXICANTS
The Arabic word khamr means intoxicants. An intoxicant is anything that befogs the mind. Therefore,
intoxicants can be solid liquid or gas. To consume intoxicant is a major sin because the person who takes
intoxicants receives 80 lashes. Examples of intoxicants include cannabis, marijuana, alcohol, ecstasy,
speed, cocaine, heroin, etc. The hypocrites want to drink alcohol so they claim “as long as I am not drunk
at the time of salah I am allowed to drink”. But Allah told us to abstain from alcohol in the following Ayah:
O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), gambling, AlAnsāb, and AlAzlām
(arrows for seeking luck or decision) are an abomination of Shaitān's (Satan) handiwork. So avoid
(strictly all) that (abomination) in order that you may be successful. Shaitān (Satan) wants only to
excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants (alcoholic drinks) and gambling, and
hinder you from the remembrance of Allāh and from As-Salāt (the prayer). So, will you not then
abstain? (Al-Ma'idah 5:90-91)
In the following Hadith the Holy Prophet (saw) told us that whenever a person drinks alcohol he has not
Salah for 40 days.
‘Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “If anyone drinks wine then
his salah over forty days are not approved. If he repents then Allah will relent to him. If he reverts
(to it), then Allah will not approve his salah over forty days. If he repents, Allah will relent to him
but if he reverts (to it) then Allah will not approve his salah over forty days. If he repents then
Allah will relent to him. Again, if he reverts the fourth time, Allah will not approve his salah over
forty days and if he repents then Allah will not relent to him and He will give him to drink from the
river of Khabal.” Someone asked, “O Abu Abdur Rahman! what is the river of Khabal?’ He said,
“The pus of the dwellers of the people of fire.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/290) No. 1862, Sunan Nasa'i
(8/317) No. 5670, Musnad Ahmad (2/35) No. 4917, al-Mu’jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (12/390) No.
13441]
If you drink, you have no salah for 40 days and 40 nights

This doesn’t mean he is relieved from praying salah
The person who drinks alcohol still has to perform the prayers on time
If he were to delay any of his prayers, he would be committing a grave major sin, which is worse than the
sin of drinking alcohol.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q: aswr, you mentioned that someone who does not make hajj without a valid reason will die as a
jew or christian does this mean they will die as kaffir and be in the hellfire forever?
The person who dies as a Jew or a Christian would have to deny Hajj to be kaafir. The following Ayah
explains further:
And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka'bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those
who can afford the expenses (for one's conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever
disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah
stands not in need of any of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). (Aali Imran 3:97)
Q: asalam alekum shaikh i saw a video where a kafir couple was doing a dna test to find out if the
child was theirs or not, when they got the result that he was not the father they were celebrating,
so what is the punishment for adultery in the hereafter and the punishment in this life for it?
Punishment for adultery is hellfire

But if you make Tawbah with sincerity you can be forgiven
Allah Forgives all sins, even shirk
As long as you make Tawbah before you die. Hence, Allah said:
Say: "O 'Ibadi (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds
and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, verily Allah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-
Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Az-Zumar 39:53)
If you are punished for adultery in the dunya, Allah wont ask you about it in the hereafter
If you did not, Allah will give you a double punishment in the hereafter
shall receive the punishment. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and
he will abide therein in disgrace; (Al-Furqan 25:68-69)
Q: is it cutting ties of kinship if your family are far away like if your in the west and your family is
in yemen and you can get hold with them?
Cutting the ties of kinship means when you refuse to interact with your family
Living in another country is not cutting ties. Even though Abu Talib was a kaafir, the Prophet (SAW) loved
him and didn’t cut ties with him. The Prophet (saw) even told Ali to bury his kaafir father, Abu Talib, when
he died. But the Prophet (SAW) did not attend the janaza. About the Prophet (saw) loving Abu Talib, Allah
said:
Verily! You (O Muhammad SAW) guide not whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And
He knows best those who are the guided. (Al-Qasas: 56)
You cannot cut the ties of kinship unless your relatives are antagonistic towards Islam.
It is worthy of mentioning that when a man killed himself, the Prophet (SAW) told the Muslims to bury him
but the Prophet (SAW) did not attend the janaza. He (SAW) allowed the Muslims to pray over him, but he
himself did not attend. When a man kills himself, he is still a Muslim - he is a bad Muslim
Q: my question is, i am looking for a wife and i want to know if a a person who doesn’t believe
in twheed hakimiyya be married
Tawheed hakimiyyah means Allah is the only Law-giver. When Prophet Yusuf was in prison he taught the
inmates four branches of tawheed. See Surah 12:39-40 for the Hujjah.
O [my] two companions of prison, are separate lords better or Allah, the One, the Prevailing?
(Yusuf 12:39)You worship not besides Him except [mere] names you have named them, you and
your fathers, for which Allah has sent down no authority. Legislation is not but for Allah. He has
commanded that you worship not except Him. That is the correct religion, but most of the people
do not know. (Yusuf 12:39-40)
To deny tawheed hakimiyyah is major kufr because to deny tawheed hakimiyyah is to deny that Allah is
the only Law-giver. In this regard, Allah said:
Is not Allah the most just of judges? (At-Tin 95:8)
“And He shares not His legislation with anyone." (Al-Kahf 18:26)
Those who deny tawheed hakimiyyah also claim that to dismantle the Shariah is a minor kufr. This
ideology is zandaqa [heresy] because when the Jews tampered with the Shariah, Allah turned them into
apes and swine. These people who claim to dismantle the Shariah is a minor kufr are trying to insinuate
that when Allah turned the Jews into apes and swine He, Allah, was overreacting. About the Jews
tampering with the Shariah, Allah said:
Say (O Muhammad SAW to the people of the Scripture) : "Shall I inform you of something worse
than that, regarding the recompense from Allah: those (Jews) who incurred the Curse of Allah and
His Wrath, those of whom (some) He transformed into monkeys and swines, those who
worshipped Taghut (false deities); such are worse in rank (on the Day of Resurrection in the
Hellfire), and far more astray from the Right Path (in the life of this world)." (Al-Ma'idah: 60)
It is worthy of mentioning that those who deny tawheed hakimiyyah are wicked scholars who are
cementing the thrones of the apostate leaders for worldly gains. They have sold their religion for a
miserable price.
The Domain of Apostasy
THE DOMAIN OF APOSTASY

NOTES typed LIVE by AT19 and wordup1

Bismillah...
In Arabic we say: [‫ ]دار اﻟﺮدة‬Dar ar-Ridda (the domain of apostasy)

- in the world today we have different domains
i. Darul-Kufr
- Darul-kufr is the land of the original kaafirs; they are not plotting against the Muslims
- for example: Abyssinia was a Christian country, in the time of the prophet (SAW)
- Abyssinia was not plotting to bring harm to the Muslims; verbally or physically
ii. Darul-Harb
- Darul-harb is a kaafir land that harms Muslims
- they plot to bring harm to Muslims either verbally or physically
- they lock up innocent Muslims at home and abroad
- they kill innocent Muslims abroad
iii. Darul-Islam
- Darul-Islam is the land where the Islamic Shariah is fully implemented
- for example, the territory of Iraq and Syria where the Islamic State governs
There is a dar, which you forget about and our topic tonight is about
- this dar is called Dar ar-Ridda
WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF DAR AR-RIDDA?

- Dar ar-Ridda is a country which is traditionally a Muslim country
- but the ideology of the people is kufr, shirk and zandaqah (heresy)
an example of such a country is Iran

- Iran used to be Sunni
- when it was Sunni it produced great scholars
- but today; it is Dar ar-Ridda
- when they became Shia, they stopped producing scholars
Another example of Dar ar-Ridda is; Pakistan

- a country is Dar ar-Ridda when the majority of the people practice kufr, shirk or
zandaqa
- if you should go to Pakistan and do a census,
- the average Pakistani would be a Barelvi
Whenever you are in a society and the majority of the people practice kufr,
shirk and zandaqa
- and authentic tauheed (Islamic monotheism) is not taught
- therefore it is rare and scarce
- that society is classified as the domain of apostasy - Dar ar-Ridda
APOSTASY MAY OCCUR WITH THE HEART, TONGUE OR THE LIMBS
i. APOSTASY BY THE HEART
In their hearts is disease, so Allah has increased their disease; and for them
is a painful punishment because they [habitually] used to lie. (Al-Baqarah
2:10)
- e.g. if you wake up one morning and you doubt Muhammad (SAW) is a real prophet,
- you have now become an apostate from Islam
- or if you doubt Judgment Day is real, you become an apostate
- your wife becomes haram for you
- and you cannot be buried in the graveyard with the Muslims
ii. APOSTASY BY THE TONGUE
And if you ask them, they will surely say, "We were only conversing and
playing." Say, "Is it Allah and His verses and His Messenger that you were
mocking?" Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after your belief. If We
pardon one faction of you - We will punish another faction because they were
criminals. (At-Tawbah 9:65-66)
- you cannot crack jokes about the hijab or the beard or the jilbab
- this makes you an apostate
iii. APOSTASY BY THE LIMBS
And it has already come down to you in the Book that when you hear the
verses of Allah [recited], they are denied [by them] and ridiculed; so do not
sit with them until they enter into another conversation. Indeed, you would
then be like them. Indeed Allah will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers in
Hell all together - (An-Nisa 4:140)
- just for you to be at a gathering and people are making mockery of Islam,
- you become one of them
O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them
among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the
wrongdoing people. (Al-Ma’idah 5:51)
This is called an example of apostasy by the limbs

- 5:51 and 4:140 are examples from the Quran of apostasy of the limbs
- Ibn Hazm says no two Muslims dispute about the meaning of this ayah (5:51)
- you have to follow the apparent meaning of this ayah, don't put a spin of the ayah
Ibn Hazm Stated in Al-Muhalla (11/138): "What is correct is that His

statement, the Most High, "And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya',
then surely he is one of them." (The Quran 5:51), should be understood on
the basis of its apparent meaning. The person being referred to is a
disbeliever from the generality of disbelievers, and no two Muslims disagree
regarding this."
For you to die in Islam, it is a bonus and a barakah

- because some sahabas apostatized from Islam
- and joined the army of Musaylimah al-Kaddhab
Abu Huraira narrated that the Prophet (SAW) said, "On the Day of
Resurrection a group of companions will come to me, but will be driven away
from the Lake-Fount, and I will say, 'O Lord (those are) my companions!' It
will be said, 'You have no knowledge as to what they innovated after you
left; they turned apostate as renegades (reverted from Islam)." [Sahih
Bukhari (8/120) No. 6585]
Allah and His rasool said you should kill the apostates; in the Islamic State
- you cannot kill apostates in Europe and America
- people go to Europe and America to apostate from Islam
- 4:89 is an example to prove that we kill apostates
They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So
do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of
Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find
them and take not from among them any ally or helper. (An-Nisa 4:89)
- this is the ayah used by the scholars to say we kill apostates
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
said: "If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him." [Sahih Bukhari
(4/61) No. 3017, Musnad Ahmad (1/322) No. 2968, Sunan al-Nasa'i (7/104)
No. 4059, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/574) No. 2535, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/126)
No. 4351, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/59) No. 1458]
Narrated By 'Abdullah: Allah's Apostle said, "The blood of a Muslim who

confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am
the Messenger of Allah, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for
murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one
who reverts from Islam (apostate) and separates from the main body of the
Muslims." [al-Bukhari (6878) and Muslim (1676)]
The above is the evidence used to prove that you kill the apostates in hadith
- whether you are a revert or a born Muslim; you have to die as Muslim
Ibn Qudamah (rh) said: "All the scholars of Islam are agreed that the
apostate is to be killed." [al-Mughni (9/3)]
It is worthy of mentioning that it is haram to take jizya from apostates

- many of you say: ‘why do ISIS kill Shia?’
- the Shia were given the choice; to come back to Islam or die
- to take jizya from apostates means; you have made up your own Islam
Abu Bakr as-Siddiq fought against apostates, he did not take jizya from them
- either you come back to Islam or die
- there is no third option
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: When the Messenger of Allah (SAW) passed
away, Abu Bakr (RA) was appointed as his successor (caliph). Amongst the
Arabs some men apostatised. Abu Bakr (RA) resolved to fight them. 'Umar
bin Al-Khattab (RA) said to Abu Bakr: "How can you fight them when the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) has declared: 'I have been commanded to fight
people till they testify La ilaha illallah (there is no true god except Allah); and
if they do it, their blood (life) and property are secured except when justified
by law, and it is for Allah to call them to account." Upon this Abu Bakr (RA)
said: "By Allah, I would definitely fight him who makes distinction between
Salat and the Zakat, because it is an obligation upon the rich to pay Zakat. By
Allah I will fight them even to secure the piece of rope which they used to
give to the Messenger of Allah (SAW)." 'Umar (RA) said: "I realized that Allah
opened the heart of Abu Bakr (RA) for fighting those who refused to pay
Zakat, and I fully recognized that Abu Bakr was on the truth." [al-Bukhari
(1399, 1400) and Muslim (20)]
As for killing apostates, it is a matter of ijtihaad (an independent judgement)

- it is left up to the ijtihaad of the Qadi (judge)
- it is the same ruling for a zindeeq (heretic); that makes up his own religion
- you do not take jizya from a zindeeq
Jizya is taken from Jews, Christians and Zoroastrians

- a zindeeq is a person who makes up his own Islam
- we do not call it Islam; we call it hislam
- e.g. the Qadiyani
- the Qadiyani and the Shia are zanaadiqa
- a Shia believes the Quran is corrupted
SHIA HUJJAH: The present Quran is in an altered, corrupted and distorted

form.. (Fatuhat-e-Shia, p. 129)
- they elevate their imams above Allah
SHIA HUJJAH: Imams are God (Jila-ul-Ayoun, Vol. No. 2, Page No. 85)
- they say: ‘Allah is a liar and He makes mistakes’
SHIA HUJJAH: “Allah often lies and does mistakes” [Usool-al-Kafi, page 328,
Yacoob Kulayni, Vol. 1]
- but ‘our imams cannot make mistakes’

SHIA HUJJAH: All the Imams are infallible just like the prophets. The Shia
derives their religion from their immaculate (infallible) Imams" (Usool al
Kafi, p. 22)
You don't even know what the Shia believe

- yet you have the audacity to criticise Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi; for killing Shia?!
Why are the majority of Muslim countries called; domain of apostasy?

- because they don’t just believe in Allah alone, they believe in false deities other than
Allah
- the majority of people don’t believe
And most of them believe not in Allah except while they associate others
with Him. (Yusuf 12:106)
- majority of Muslim countries are domains of apostasy

- they have qaboor (shrines) and black magic is rife
- invoking others besides Allah and black magic is kufr akbar
- sheikhs in these countries, do not teach you negations of faith
- Abu Hanifa (rh) said learning tawheed is fiqh al-akbar
- an apostate is worse than a kaafir according to ibn Taymiyyah (rh)

- he engaged with people who believed in pantheism
- pantheism = Allah is everywhere and everything is Allah
- there is no difference between creation and Creator
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said - refuting the pantheistic belief of

the Baatinis: “It is well known that the kaafir Tatars are better than these
(Baatinis), because the latter are apostates from Islam, of the worst type of
apostates. The apostate is worse than one who is a kaafir in the first place in
many aspects.” [Majmoo’ al-Fataawa, (2/193)]
- Ibn Taymiyyah said that the bataniyah are worse than the Tatars
- not every Muslim who does kufr is a kaafir and a apostate

- maybe he did kufr under duress
- he might have an impediment of takfeer
- the pagans of Quraish did it to Ammar bin Yaasir (RA)
- the proof of excuse is 16:106
…except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is
secure in faith… (An-Nahl 16:106)
- this ayah was revealed in situation of Ammar bin Yasir (RA)

- they had already killed his mother and father and were going to kill him
- he renounced Islam and they left him alone
- he is not a kaafir because he apostatized with his tongue; for them not to kill him
- so not every Muslim who does kufr is a kaafir, maybe he was under duress
- you cannot say kufr pretending you will get killed without any threat
al-Qurtubi (rh) said: “And it was said that if believer resides between
disbelievers, if he has a fear about his life, he can manage them by his
tongue, while his soul would be full with belief. And taqqiyah is not
permitted except if there is fear of being killed, or fear that a limb could be
cut, or (any other) great punishment. And if someone is forced to make kufr,
the authentic view that he can persist and refuse to say words of kufr.”
[Tafseer al-Qurtubi (4/57)]
- you cannot make takfeer on someone with a slip of the tongue

- the hadith of man in desert.
In another version of Muslim, he said:“Verily, Allah is more pleased with the

repentance of His slave than a person who has his camel in a waterless
desert carrying his provision of food and drink and it is lost. He, having lost
all hopes (to get that back), lies down in shade and is disappointed about his
camel; when all of a sudden he finds that camel standing before him. He
takes hold of its reins and then out of boundless joy blurts out: 'O Allah, You
are my slave and I am Your Rubb'. He commits this mistake out of extreme
joy.” [Sahih Muslim (4/2104) No. 2747]
- we have to learn this, so we don’t become khawarij making takfeer on innocent

Muslims
- maybe the person was taught tawheed by wicked scholars
- a person who was in a village and taught by fake scholars; ‘that Allah is everywhere’
- you cannot make takfeer unless you establish the hujjah on an ignorant Muslim
Muslims are ignorant of key issues of deen.

- al-wala wal-bara, kufr bit taghoot, tawheed hakamiyyah, fiqhul-waqiah, jihad
- tahakkum = to take your disputes to the taghoot for judgement, this is an act of
apostasy
While 'Allama al-Shinqiti-May Allah be merciful with him-has said: To commit
shirk with Allah in judging is of the same meaning as to commit shirk in His
worship, there is no difference between the two in any manner. There is no
difference in any sense between he who follows a system (nizam) other than
Allah's system or law other than Allah's law (sharia) and he who worships an
idol or prostrates to a false god. They are the same and both are polytheists
[associating others] with Allah. [Adwa' al-Bayan, (7/162)]
- a Muslim in a village in Pakistan doesn’t know that Tahirul-Qadri is a kaafir

- ignorance is another impediment of takfeer
- a Muslim living in the US; there isn’t proper sheikhs in the US

- maybe the only one is Ahmad Musa Jibril (ha), he’s trying to teach tauheed
- if you open your mouth and try to teach the tauheed of Ibn Taymiyyah
- they will lock you up for at least 100 years, like they did to Ali Tamimi (ha)
- all Ali Tamimi did was to preach tauheed
- it is impossible to find a sheikh in America
The current state of affairs in America is ignorance, ignorance is prevalence

- a Muslim in the US, who goes to the ballot box to vote for Barrack Obama
- you cannot make takfir on him
- because an American Muslim is so jahil, he doesn’t know democracy is the greatest
shirk
- if a Muslim in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Turkey don’t know democracy is the greatest
shirk
- how will a Muslim in America know that?
- because democracy being shirk akbar was not known to him
- only after establishing the hujjah can you make takfeer if they refuse
The wicked scholars like Tariq Ramadan taught people that democracy and
Islam are compatible
- rejecting democracy and its believers is part of the kalimah
- the average Muslim living in darul-harb/kufr is jahil
We believe in categorisation of knowledge and excuse of ignorance when

kufr and shirk is not clear
- we do not make takfeer for someone who votes for JEI (in Pakistan)
- because the person thinks its an Islamic Jama’ah
- same thing in Egypt
You cannot make takfeer on Muslims living in this domain of apostasy
because the people are jahil
- you cannot make takfeer unless you establish the hujjah
- this ruling is for democracy, but not for bowing to qaboor (graves) and insulting Allah
or sahabas or thinking Quran is corrupted
- because these things are known in Islam by necessity
- to make takfeer on the sahabas makes you a kaafir
- this excuse of ignorance is only for those partaking in democracy
- those who make takfeer on sahaba, we cut off his head
Imaam Ibn Hazm quoted a report with an isnad going back to Hishaam ibn
‘Ammaar, who said: "I heard Maalik ibn Anas say: ‘Whoever curses Abu Bakr
should be whipped, and whoever curses ‘Aa’ishah should be killed.’ He was
asked, ‘Why do you say that concerning (the one who curses) ‘Aa’ishah?’ He
said, ‘Because Allaah says concerning ‘Aa’ishah, may Allah be pleased with
her (interpretation of the meaning): "Allaah forbids you from it [slander] and
warns you not to repeat the like of it forever, if you are believers." [al-Noor
24:17]’" Maalik said: "Whoever accuses her goes against the Qur’aan, and
whoever goes against the Qur’aan should be killed." Ibn Hazm said: "This
comment of Maalik’s is correct, and it is complete apostasy to reject Allaah’s
words that clearly state her innocence." [al-Muhalla (12/440)]
Imam al-Nawawi (rh), said: "'Aishah's innocence of that of which she was
accused is stated definitively in the Qur'an. If anyone doubts that, he
becomes a kaafir and an apostate, by the consensus of the Muslims." [Sharh
Sahih Muslim (17/117)]
- ibn Qudamah said: if a person apostates, you give him 3 days to come back to Islam
Ibn Qudaamah said: “The apostate should not be put to death until he has
been asked to repent three times. This is the view of the majority of scholars,
including ‘Umar, ‘Ali, ‘Ata’, al-Nakhaii, Maalik, al-Thawri, al-Awzaa’i, Ishaaq
and others. Because apostasy comes about because of doubt, and cannot be
dispelled in an instant. Time should be allowed for the person to rethink the
matter, and the best length of time is three days.” [al-Mughni (9/8) No.
7086]
- ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi (rh) was a scholar in time of Salah ud-Deen al-Ayyubi
- and a scholar of ahlus sunnah wal-jammah
Some apostates are killed even if they make taubah

- just because a man makes taubah does not mean we have to spare him
- that is between them and Allah.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (rh) said: “Apostasy is of two types: ordinary
apostasy and extreme apostasy, for which execution is prescribed. In both
cases there is evidence that it is essential to execute the apostate, but the
evidence indicating that the sentence of death may be waived if the person
repents does not apply to both types of apostasy. Rather the evidence
indicates that that is allowed only in the first case – i.e., ordinary apostasy –
as will be clear to anyone who studies the evidence that speaks about
accepting the repentance of the apostate. In the second type – i.e., extreme
apostasy – the obligation to put the apostate to death still stands, and there
is no text or scholarly consensus to indicate that the death sentence may be
waived. The two cases are quite different and there is no comparison
between them. It does not say in the Qur’aan or Sunnah, or according to
scholarly consensus, that everyone who apostatizes in word or deed may be
spared the death sentence if he repents after he is a captured and tried.
Rather the Qur’aan and Sunnah, and scholarly consensus, differentiate
between the different kinds of apostates.” [al-Saarim al-Maslool, (pg. 366-
367)]
- ibn taymiyyah said there are 2 types of apostates

- we kill them to make an example of them
- the ordinary apostate isn’t out there to attack Islam and Muslims with his tongue, pen,
media, actions etc.
- in both cases the person is executed
- apostasy is in their word or deed
What do we do to the extreme apostate?

- he should be crucified (see 5:33)
Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger
and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or
crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that
they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for
them in the Hereafter is a great punishment, (Al-Ma’idah 5:33)
- the extreme apostate is crucified

- the ordinary apostate, you give them 3 days to come back to Islam.
On youtube, we see Islamic State videos where they execute apostates

- these people were working for taghout and they are punished accordingly
- many of you see these videos and say: “this is barbaric”
- who told you its barbaric to crucify these people?
- the problem is you, you are either jahil about your deen or weak in eman
Another extreme apostate is Mansoor al-Hallaj; who said ‘ana al-haqq’

- this person was so evil, they didn’t even ask him to make taubah
- the governor executed him on the spot
Al-Qaadi ‘Iyaad said: "The Maaliki fuqaha’ of Baghdad at the time of al-
Muqtadir were unanimously agreed that al-Hallaaj should be killed and
crucified because of his claim to divinity and his belief in incarnation, and his
saying “I am al-Haqq [God],” even though he outwardly appeared to adhere
to sharee’ah, and they did not accept his repentance." [al-Shifa bi Ta’reef
Huqooq al-Mustafa, (2/632)]
- wahdatul wajood = union = everything is Allah

- Allah is mixed with His creation
- even though he didn’t wage war against Islam and Muslims

- he was executed because he was an extreme zindeeq.
Waging war on Allah and His messenger is of 2 types according to ibn

Taymiyyah
- physical and verbal, verbal is far worse and dangerous
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (rh) said: "Muhaarabah (waging war against
Islam) is of two types: physical and verbal. Waging war verbally against
Islam may be worse than waging war physically – as stated above – hence
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to kill those
who waged war against Islam verbally, whilst letting off some of those who
waged war against Islam physically. This ruling is to be applied more strictly
after the death of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
Mischief may be caused by physical action or by words, but the damage
caused by words is many times greater than that caused by physical action;
and the goodness achieved by words in reforming may be many times
greater than that achieved by physical action. It is proven that waging war
against Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) verbally is worse and the efforts on earth to undermine religion by
verbal means is more effective." [al-Saarim al-Maslool, (pg. 385)]
- that is why those who waged war on Islam with words and media
- were dealt with differently even on conquest of Makkah
- a word can carry a million times over, in the event its in the form of a book
- like the book by Salman Rushdie
Someone who became a superstar by speaking ill of Islam and Muslim in

mass media
- is more dangerous type of kaafir than a soldier
- another country that used to be in the domain of apostasy were Iraq and Shaam
- now, alhamdulilah, they are governed by Shariah and Khilafah
- they had previously adopted Arab Ba’athism and Arab nationalism
Michel Aflaq was the founder of the Ba’athism

- born 1910 and he died 1989, founder of Arab socialism
- his aim and objective was to replace Islam with Arab socialism/ba’athism
- he was a Christian Arab, the ideology of the people was ba’athist.
- but when the US invaded Iraq and all the sectarian violence took place
- in which Sunnis were targeted, the Muslims woke up and came back to Islam
- many Muslims came back because of all the mujahideen came from all over the world
- to wake the local people up
The US invasion was a gift to the Muslims in Iraq

- a domain of apostasy can be transformed into domain of Islam by hijrah, jihad and
Shariah
- there is already a movement in Pakistan
- Bangladesh and Egypt need the movement that believe in jihad, hijrah and shariah
- only with hijrah, jihad and shariah; can a domain of apostasy transform into a domain
of Islam
- and this is what took place in Syria and Iraq
Taariq bin Shihab reports that when Umar (RA) was travelling to Shaam, Abu
Ubaydah bin Jarraah (RA) was accompanying him. "O, Abu Ubaydah! Had
anyone other than you made such a statement, I would have made him a
lesson for the Ummah of Muhammad (SAW). We were once amongst the
lowest of people, but Allaah gave us honour because of Islaam. As soon as
we start to seek honour in avenues other than that in which Allaah has
granted us honour, Allaah will then humiliate us." [Mustadrak al-Hakim
(1/130) No. 207]
- izzah belongs to Allah, the prophet and the Muslims, but the hypocrites realise it not
…And to Allah belongs [all] honor, and to His Messenger, and to the
believers, but the hypocrites do not know. (Al-Munafiqun 63:8)
- Saddam was found in a rat hole, Gaddafi was killed and also found in a rat hole
- and soon Bashar al-Assad will follow
- they will be disgraced because they tried to find izzah in other than Islam
The Importance of Hijrah
THE IMPORTANCE OF HIJRAH
9th July 2014 / 12th Ramadan 1435 (Evening)
NOTES typed LIVE by AT6

Download: https://archive.org/details/TheImportanceOfHijrah
Bismillah...
Definition of Hijrah:
- the arabic word 'hijrah' is taken from the root word hajara
- which means to abandon
- whenever a Muslim uses the word hijrah
- it means to migrate from the land of the kuffaar to live in the land of the Muslims
Ibn 'Arabi (rh) said, "Hijrah is to leave DarulǦǦHarb for DarulǦǦIslam" [Ahkamul-
Quran (1/611)]
Ibn Qudamah (rh) said: "It is to leave Darul-Kufr for DarulǦIslam." [al-
Mughni (9/293)]
Hijrah is an important aspect of Islam

- the reason why it is so important is because it is an evidence
- that you have al-wala wal-bara (love and hate for the sake of Allah)
- and kufr bit taghoot (rejecting the Taghoot)
- when you make hijrah, it is a proof that you are a real Muslim
- Allah Himself said it in: 8:74:
- ‘these are the real believers’
But those who have believed and emigrated and fought in the cause of Allah
and those who gave shelter and aided - it is they who are the believers, truly.
For them is forgiveness and noble provision. (Al-Anfal 8:74)
- Allah said your hijrah in itself is a proof that you are a real Muslim not a fake Muslim.
Shaykh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said, The migration of a person from a
land of disbelief and profanity to one of faith and probity is an expression of
repentance and of his turning away from disobedience and perversion to
belief and obedience. This is so until the Day of Resurrection.” [Majmu’al-
Fatawa, (18/284)]
It was narrated by Mu'awiya that he heard the Prophet (SAW) said: “Hijrah
will not be terminate until Tawbah is terminated, and Tawbah will not be
terminated until sun rises from the west” [al-Tareekh al-Kabeer al-Bukhari
(9/80) No. 770, Abu Dawud (3/3) No. 2479, Sunan al-Darime (2/312) No.
2513, Musnad Ahmad (4/99) No. 16952, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (8/67)
No. 8658]
It was narrated from Ibn as-Sa'di that the Prophet (SAW) said: "Hijrah
(migration) will never cease so long as there is an enemy to be fought"
Mu'awiyah, 'Abdur Rahman bin 'Awf and 'Abdullah bin 'Amr ibn al-'As said:
The Prophet (SAW) said: "Hijrah is of two types: one is forsaking bad deeds
and the other is migrating for the sake of Allah and His Messenger. Hijrah
will never cease so long as repentance can be accepted, for repentance will
never cease to be accepted until the sun rises from its place of setting; when
it rises thus, a seal will be placed on every heart with what is in it, and
people will no longer have to strive." [Musnad Ahmad (1/192) No. 1671;
Shu'aib Arna'oot commented the isnad is hasan, alǦǦHaythamī said that its
men are Thiqat (trustworthy) in 'Majma al-Zawaid' (5/250-251) No. 9280]
Junadah narrated the Prophet (SAW) said: "Hijrah will not be cut off as long
as there is Jihad." [al-Jami' al-Saghir al-Suyuti (No. 3754); al-Albanī declared
it sahih in ‘Sahih alǦJami’ (1991) and ‘asǦSilsilah asǦSahihah’ (1674)]
THE WORLD IS DIVIDED INTO 3 ABODES:
1. DARUL-KUFR (‫)دار اﻟﻜﻔﺮ‬

- it is the land of the infidels
- in this land there is no shariah
- but the infidels of this land are not antagonistic towards Muslims
- this means they are not locking up innocent Muslims
- neither are they killing Muslims
- Ethiopia was Darul-kufr in the time of the Prophet
- they were neither killing nor locking up innocent Muslims
"In Habasha, there is a king that no one is wronged under his reign, so
emigrate to his country until Allah makes a relief and a way out for you from
what you suffer" [al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (9/16) No. 17734, narrated
by Um Salamah]
It is makruh to live in Darul-kufr

- if Darul-Islam is available.
2. DARUL-HARB (‫)دار اﻟﺤﺮب‬

- Darul Harb means the land of war
- in this land the infidels are locking up innocent Muslims,
- their prisons are packed with innocent Muslims
- or they are killing innocent Muslims at home or abroad
- in this land sometimes they use their newspapers to insult the Prophet (SAWS)
- they insult Muhammad (SAW) with the most derogatory names
- they claim this is democracy and freedom of speech
It is haraam for a Muslim to live in Darul-Harb
On the authority of Jarir bin 'Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
sent a military expedition to Khath'am. So some people (living there) sought
safety by prostrating, but they were met quickly and killed. News of this
reached the Prophet (SAW) upon which he commanded that they be given
half of the 'Aql (blood money). And he said: "I am free from every Muslim
that lives among the idolaters." They said: "O Messenger of Allah: How is
that?" He said: "They should not see each other's campfires." [Sunan
Tirmidhi (4/155) No. 1604 and Sunan Abu Dawud (3/45) No. 2645]
It was narrated from Samurah that the Prophet (SAW) said: “Do not live
among the mushrikeen and do not mix with them, for whoever lives among
them or mixes with them is not one of us.” [al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi
(9/240) No. 18420 and Mustadrak al-Haakim (2/154) No. 2627. adh-Dhahabi
graded this on the conditions of Bukhari and Muslim]
On the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr who said: “Anyone who lived in the
land of the infidels and celebrated their religious festivals and imitated them
till he died in that state, will be raised among them on the Day of Judgment.”
[al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (9/392) No. 18864]
3. DARUL-ISLAM (‫)دار اﻹﺳﻼم‬
- the abode of Islam is the land in which Shariah is implemented
- the lives, property, honour and the deen of the Muslims are protected and
safeguarded
[And they are] those who, if We give them authority in the land, establish
prayer and give zakah and enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. And
to Allah belongs the outcome of [all] matters. (Al-Hajj 22:41)
Every Muslim should try to the best of his ability to live in Darul Islam
- before they die and not die in Darul Kufr or Darul Harb
- when the Prophet established the Islamic State in Madina,
- the Muslims in Ethiopia migrated to Madina
- even though the king gave them a warm welcome
- this proves that it should be the ambition of every Muslim
- to live in Darul-Islam before they die
- not in Darul-Harb or Darul-Kufr
THE MUSLIMS WHO LIVE AMONG THE KUFFAR ARE OF 6 CATEGORIES
1. THOSE MUSLIMS WHO PREFER TO LIVE AMONG THE KUFFAR BECAUSE OF

THEIR LOVE FOR THEM
- they even disassociate themselves from the Muslims
- they even help the kuffaar with their struggles against the Ummah
- they help them morally, physically and financially
These so called Muslims have become infidels and apostates by the ijma of
the ulamah
- the ulamah quoted Surah Maidah verse 51 as their hujjah
O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them
among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the
wrongdoing people. (Al-Ma’idah 5:51)
Ibn Hazm Stated in Al-Muhalla (11/138): "What is correct is that His

statement, the Most High, "And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya',
then surely he is one of them." (The Quran 5:51), should be understood on
the basis of its apparent meaning. The person being referred to is a
disbeliever from the generality of disbelievers, and no two Muslims disagree
regarding this.
Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab, may Allah have mercy on him, gathered
ten actions that negate one's Islam (Nawaqid ul-'Ashr), the eighth one of
which states: "Assisting the disbelievers (against the believers)
(Mudhaharatul Mushrikeen) and supporting them against the believers (is
from the actions that negates of one's faith). The Proof being the statement
of Allah, "And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one
of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimun
(polytheists and wrong-doers and unjust). (The Quran 5:51)."
- this person who lives in Darul-Harb and prefers to live amongst the kuffaar
- and he supports them against the ummah is a kaafir by the ijma of the ulamaa
Ibn Hazm (rh) states that: “Whoever joins the ‘land of war’ and disbelief, of
his own free will and in defiance of whoever amongst the Muslims calls him
to his side, is by virtue of this act an apostate, by all the laws of apostasy, in
Islam. Whoever is able to kill him must do so. His property is unprotected, his
marriage null and void, all his rights are swept away. [Ibn Hazm, al-Muhalla’:
(13/139-140)]
Ibn Hazm is talking about Darul-Harb not Darul-Kufr because he said the
land of war
- you cannot live in Darul-Harb
- they use their cartoons to insult the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
- by insulting the Prophet the place becomes Darul-Harb
Let not believers take disbelievers as allies rather than believers. And
whoever [of you] does that has nothing with Allah, except when taking
precaution against them in prudence. And Allah warns you of Himself, and to
Allah is the [final] destination. (Aali Imran 3:28)
The scholars quoted this ayah (3:28) to back up what Ibn Hazm said
- the reason why Ibn Hazm took this stance is because by you living among the kuffar
in Darul-Harb,
- you are swelling the ranks of the enemy
- you are going to work and pay tax to them
- your money is going to be used to kill Muslims
As a sincere believer you are supposed to strive towards swelling the ranks
of the Muslims
- it's all about swelling the ranks; which rank do you want to swell?
- the ranks of the believers or the ranks of the enemy?
- that's why Ibn Hazm passed this fatwa
At-Tabari remarks that such a person would have washed his hands of Allah,
and that Allah would have nothing to do with a person who actively rejects
Him and denies His Religion [Tafseer at-Tabari (6/313)]
- Imam Tabari said this person who swells the ranks of the enemy
- and refuses to live in the dawlah washes his hands of Allah
And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord;

He will guide me. (As-Saffat 37:99)
When Abraham found out that his people were enemies of Islam,
- he said that he will make hijrah
- like we see in the above-mentioned ayah
Ibn Kathir (rh) said: “Allāh says to His believing slaves Ǧ whom He has
ordered to be harsh against the disbelievers and to have enmity towards
them, and to avoid them, and to disassociate themselves from them – that
there was a great example for you in Ibrāhīm and those with him – his
followers who believed with him – when they said to their people: {“...We
are free from you...”} meaning: we have disassociated ourselves from you
and what you worship besides Allāh; {“...and we have disbelieved in you...”}
meaning: in your religion and your ways; {“...and there has emerged
between us and you enmity and hatred forever...”} meaning: enmity and
hatred has been legislated from now between us, and as long as you remain
upon your disbelief, then we will disassociate ourselves from you and hate
you until you believe in Allāh, alone – single Him out to worship Him, without
any partners, and to abandon what you worship along with Him of idols and
gods.” [Tafsir Ibn Kathir (8/87)]

. [91:‫( ]ﺳﻮرة اﻟﻨﺴﺎء‬1) } ‫ﱡﻣ ِﺒﯿﻨًﺎ‬
Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab (rh), mentioned that in the case of a Muslim
whose people remained bound to disbelief and followed the enemies of
Islam, he too would become a disbeliever if he refused to abandon his
people, just because he found it difficult. He would end up fighting against
the Muslims alongside his nation, with his money and life. And if they were to
order him to marry his father's wife, but could not prevent that unless he
migrates from his country, he would be forced to marry her. His alliance and
participation with them in their campaign against Islam and their struggle
against Allah and His Messenger is far worse than marrying his father's wife.
He is also a disbeliever, about whom Allah has said: “You will find others who
hope for your protection, and for that of their own people. But whenever
they are sent to temptation, they yield thereto. If they do not withdraw from
you, nor offer you peace, nor restrain their hands, then seize them and kill
them wherever you may find them. In their case, We have given you a clear
warrant against them. (An-Nisa 4:91).”
This is why the first thing Abraham did when he came out of the fire was to
make hijrah
- he left Iraq and went to Egypt with his wife Sarah
- Moses also made hijrah
- when Moses was in Egypt and he found out that the people were oppressive and evil,
- he made hijrah.
- he was told by a good Samaritan he needs to leave Egypt
- because the people are going to oppress him or kill him
And a man came from the farthest end of the city, running. He said, "O
Moses, indeed the eminent ones are conferring over you [intending] to kill
you, so leave [the city]; indeed, I am to you of the sincere advisors." (Al-
Qasas 28:20) So he left it, fearful and anticipating [apprehension]. He said,
"My Lord, save me from the wrongdoing people." (Al-Qasas 28:21)
-If you are living amongst oppressive people, you need to make hijrah
-Don't wait till they lock you up in prison forever
-Like what they did to Abu Hamza and Babar Ahmad
The jury said the four racist cops who beat up Babar Ahmad are not guilty
- the people in the UK read the Sun Newspaper
- this is why they are the most racist people in the world
- The Sun is racism and porn
- The Sun newspaper is their bible
- a person from the UK, all he has in his heart is racism and porn
- because this is all their bible contains
2. MUSLIMS WHO LIVE AMONG THE KUFFAAR FOR THE SAKE OF MONEY
- because he's a business man
- or to obtain an education
- or to give dawah
- or for treatment in their hospitals
These Muslims while they were living among the kuffaar,

- they practised kufr bit-taghoot and al-wala wal-bara,
- and they did not compromise on their deen
- and they did not help the kuffaar against the ummah
These Muslims are not infidels by the ijma of the ulamaa

- however if hostility should break out between the Muslims and this land
- and they got killed accidentally, no blood money should be paid to them
- the Muslims shouldn't be held responsible for them
- because the Prophet said he is innocent of any Muslim who lives amongst the
mushrikeen
On the authority of Jarir bin 'Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
sent a military expedition to Khath'am. So some people (living there) sought
safety by prostrating, but they were met quickly and killed. News of this
reached the Prophet (SAW) upon which he commanded that they be given
half of the 'Aql (blood money). And he said: "I am free from every Muslim
that lives among the idolaters." They said: "O Messenger of Allah: How is
that?" He said: "They should not see each other's campfires." [Sunan
Tirmidhi (4/155) No. 1604 and Sunan Abu Dawud (3/45) No. 2645]
Indeed, those who have believed and emigrated and fought with their wealth
and lives in the cause of Allah and those who gave shelter and aided - they
are allies of one another. But those who believed and did not emigrate - for
you there is no guardianship of them until they emigrate. And if they seek
help of you for the religion, then you must help, except against a people
between yourselves and whom is a treaty. And Allah is Seeing of what you
do. (Al-Anfal 8:72)
- it's worthy of mentioning that these people who choose to live in Darul-kufr
- have no share in the booty.
When the mujahideen took over Mosul and the Muslims got booty,
- you who are living outside of Darul-Islam have no share in the booty
- according to shariah law.
Ibn Kathir (rh) said: Therefore, the believers who did not emigrate but who
remained in their homes had no share in the war booty, nor in its fifth part,
except in the battles in which they took part. [Tafsir Ibn Kathir(4/96)]
- the booty is for those who migrated to the dawlah.
3. MUSLIMS WHO LIVE IN DARUL-HARB AND THEY ARE OPPRESSED BY THE

INFIDELS, THE HAVE THE MEANS TO MIGRATE BUT THEY REFUSE TO LEAVE
BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO TAWAKKUL AND THEY FEAR POVERTY
- most of the Muslims living in the west belong to this category
- they are oppressed
- they have passports but they don't leave
- they fear poverty
- they live off food stamps and job seekers allowance, so they are fat
- what they don't realise is that the kuffaar are fattening them up for the kill
These Muslims, before the khilafah was established, they were told to make
hijrah
- their reply was: ‘that the whole world is darul-harb, there's no place to make hijrah to’
- when the khilafah was established and they were called to darul-Islam,
- they come with a new excuse
- they say: ‘tell us a list of famous scholars who gave bay'ah to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi?’
- they always come with a new excuse
- Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi himself is a scholar you fool, he has a PhD in Islam
- they say: ‘Yusuf Qardawi did not accept the dawlah’
- Shut up you hypocrite, Yusuf Qardawi is a kaafir
- You and Yusuf Qardawi can go to hell
- Many people made takfir on him
- Yusuf Qardawi believes in democracy
- why are you hiding behind a wicked scholar?

- why did not you quote Dr. al-Jazouli? He's not a wicked scholar
- why do they quote wicked scholars? because they themselves are wicked
Allah spoke about this third category who live amongst the kuffaar,
- who are being oppressed by the kuffaar,
- who live off job seekers allowance and food stamps in Surah Nisa verse 97
Indeed, those whom the angels take [in death] while wronging themselves -
[the angels] will say, "In what [condition] were you?" They will say, "We
were oppressed in the land." The angels will say, "Was not the earth of Allah
spacious [enough] for you to emigrate therein?" For those, their refuge is
Hell - and evil it is as a destination. (An-Nisa 4:97)
- these people have a passport

- but they don't leave because they have not tawakkul and they fear poverty
- they have no taqwa
- they worry about their bellies and their private parts
- the majority of Muslims in the west belong to this category
- especially the older ones
- some of the young ones can make hijrah
Ibn Kathir remarks: They were (wronging themselves) by refusing to
emigrate. He continues by saying that this verse establishes a general rule
which applies to anyone who is prevented from practising his religion, yet
willingly remains among the disbelievers. There is no disagreement among
the scholars, and the sources all state that this course of action is prohibited.
[Tafsir Ibn Kathir (2/389)]
And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah will find on the earth many
[alternative] locations and abundance. And whoever leaves his home as an
emigrant to Allah and His Messenger and then death overtakes him - his
reward has already become incumbent upon Allah. And Allah is ever
Forgiving and Merciful. (An-Nisa 4:100)
- the people of this category believe Allah's promise is fake

- this promise can be found in the above mentioned ayah
- people from Islamic State says the dawlah provides food for them
- they did not suffer hunger
- why do you want to live amongst the kuffaar of the West?
- they are human garbage
When the Islamic State sells the oil, they don't keep the money for
themselves;
- they use it to look after the people
- why do you want to stay to let your children become prostitutes?
- they don't believe in the promise of Allah
- they think Allah is making a fake promise to them
- thousands of Muslim women fornicate with kaafir men in the west
- they end up with herpes
And those who emigrated for [the cause of] Allah after they had been
wronged - We will surely settle them in this world in a good place; but the
reward of the Hereafter is greater, if only they could know. (An-Nahl
16:41) [They are] those who endured patiently and upon their Lord relied.
(An-Nahl 16:42)
Those who don't want to go and live in the dawlah; don't believe in Allah's promise.
Abu Hurairah narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Three groups of
people Allah obliged Himself to help them: Mujahid in the cause of Allah, a
worker to pay his debt, and the one who wants to marry to live a chaste life."
[Sunan at-Tirmidhi (4/184) No. 1655, Sunan al-Nasa'i (6/15) No. 3120,
Sunan Ibn Majah (3/561) No. 2518, Musnad Ahmad (2/437) No. 9629]
THE IMPORTANCE OF HIJRAH CONTINUES

11th July 2014 / 14th Ramadan 1435 (Evening)
NOTES typed LIVE by acceptruth, AT19 & AT6

The last time: The person who can leave but refuses to leave. Nisa 97 was quoted,
Allah was talking about people who have weak eemaan. They don't want to leave, they
are on food stamps and they think they are going to starve.
These people live of welfare, even though the kaafirs treat them badly they still stay
Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging
themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration
was obligatory for them), they (angels) say (to them): "In what (condition)
were you?" They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on earth." They
(angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allāh spacious enough for you to
emigrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil
destination! (An-Nisa 4:97)
This is third category of people who live amongst the kuffaar
Say: If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your kindred, the
wealth that you have gained, the commerce in which you fear a decline, and
the dwellings in which you delight … are dearer to you than Allāh and His
Messenger, and striving hard and fighting in His Cause[], then wait until
Allāh brings about His Decision (torment). And Allāh guides not the people
who are Al-Fāsiqûn (the rebellious, disobedient to Allāh). (At-Tawbah 9:24)
"Three groups of people Allah obliged Himself to help them: Mujahid in the
cause of Allah, a worker to pay his debt, and the one who wants to marry to
live a chaste life." (Tirmidhi 1661, Nisai 3120, Ibn e Majah 2518, Ahmed
9637)
Allah makes it fardh upon Himself to feed these three people, as indicated in the above
hujjah. Put your trust in Allah, and make hijrah.
Before you go to Jumuah, you read surah 18 - the cave. What is the theme of the cave?
The theme and moral is, here you have three men who have abandoned their homes to
go and live in a cave. They didn't ask about food or healthcare.
We don't know if there were 6 or 7 people - only Allah knows. Saying there were 7 is
just an expression
The moral of the story is these people left their homes and did not worry about poverty.
You worry about your belly and private parts too much.
From Baihaqi: He who recites Suratul Kahf on yaumul Jumuah (Friday), Allah
will shine a light for him between the two Fridays. [sahih]
The moral of the story is these young men made hijrah and did not ask what will they
eat - they put their trust in Allah.
The people who ask about what we are going to eat - these are the hypocrites. All they
live for is their bellies.
He who emigrates (from his home) in the Cause of Allāh, will find on earth
many dwelling places and plenty to live by. And whosoever leaves his home
as an emigrant unto Allāh and His Messenger, and death overtakes him, his
reward is then surely incumbent upon Allāh. And Allāh is Ever OftForgiving,
Most Merciful. (An-Nisa 4:100)
You shouldn't marry people who are morbidly obese.
Do you believe in the Quran or are you faking it?
The above ayah is one of the promises of Allah
Status of those who live among the kuffaar and fear poverty:
They are fasiqoon (doers of evil) they will go to the hell-fire, but will not live there
forever. These people have weak eeman.
We do not make takfir on them, because the Prophet (saws) did not make takfir on the
sahabahs, who did not migrate
The sahabahs did not migrate because their wives told them not to, they migrated
later.
Their knowledge of Islam was weak because they migrated later. They wanted to beat
up their wives, because their wives stopped them from migrating.
O you who believe! Verily, among your wives and your children there are
enemies for you (i.e. may stop you from the obedience of Allāh), therefore
beware of them! But if you pardon (them) and overlook, and forgive (their
faults), then verily, Allāh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (At-Taghabun
64:14)
Then Allah revealed the above ayah when they wanted to beat up their wives. Allah
said to pardon them is better.
These women had no tawakkul.
THE FOURTH CATAGORY OF MUSLIM LIVING AMONG THE KUFFAAR
Those who are weak and oppressed and could not find a plan to escape from darul
harb.
These Muslims, the infidels follow their internet habits (browsing habits). They realize
they go to websites of radical Muslims. After that, they brand them as radicalized. They
put you on a no fly list and take your passport.
These are the muslims Allah is talking about in the following ayah
"Was not the earth of Allāh spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?"
Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination! (An-Nisa
4:97) Except the weak ones among men, women and children who cannot
devise a plan, nor are they able to direct their way. (An-Nisa 4:98)
Allah did not say all of you, who live in Europe or America. If you go to a google site to
visit these sites, they will seize your pass port and put you on a no fly list. You will be
trapped in darul harb. For these people, Allah said, you are not to be blamed.
It is an exemption to those who could not devise a plan nor find any other
way out. Ibn Kathir remarks: "These were people who could not rid
themselves of the disbelievers, and even had they been able to do so, they
would not have been able to direct their way" ["Tafsir Ibn Kathir",
Vol.2/343]
You are not intelligent enough to buy a dodgy passport under a christian name. You
cannot rid yourself of the unbelievers. Allah said, there are exceptions to the rule - the
people who are oppressed will not be blamed.
If you are living in the UK and you buy a one way ticket, that is too obvious. You have
washed your hands with the kuffaar. A 19 year old bought a one way ticket to Turkey,
and the infidels threw the book at her. She will serve many years in prison.
You (the infidels) and I believe differently. We do not agree in regards to the fiqh. You
have gay churches and the church of the satan. We don't believe in that.
Since you hate us, you even hate our shadow, then allow us to leave. They say even
though we hate you, you cannot leave. You have to live with us.
The 19 year old was only trying to migrate from darul harb. When the sahabah's
migrated, they had to do it at night, because the kuffaar were stopping them.
Their hearts are alike, We have indeed made plain the signs for people who
believe with certainty. (Al-Baqarah 2:118)
The infidels pass laws that they are going to watch your browsing habits. They call it
homeland security. They pass laws to snoop on you.
They are going to seize your passport and put your name on a no fly list because they
don't want you to migrate.
Ibn ‘Asakir narrated that ‘Ali said: I don’t know of anyone who didn’t
emigrate in secret except for ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab; because when he wanted
to emigrate he strapped on his sword, put his bow over his shoulder, carried
his arrows in his hand, and came to the Ka‘bah where the nobles of Quraysh
were in the courtyard. He performed seven circuits, and then prayed two
raka‘at at the Station (of Ibrahim). Then he approached their circle one step
at a time and said, “What ugly faces! Whoever wishes to bereave his mother,
orphan his children and widow his wife then let him meet me behind this
valley.” Not one of them followed him. [Taken from jalal ad din-asuyuti’s the
history of the khailifs; pg 118]
Everybody else migrated secretly because the kuffaar were stopping them except for
Umar ibn al Khattab.
They don't want you to migrate because they know if Muslims live amongst them it will
save them from natural disasters. When Prophet Lut left Sodom and Gomorrah, Allah
destroyed the gay city.
The US and UK is the Sodom and Gomorrah of today.
So they want the Muslims to live amongst them because the Muslims are their
protection.
The second reason why they don't want you to migrate is because it's easy to keep an
eye on you if you're living in their house.
This is why they take away your passport and put you on a no fly list. Do you see how
evil these kuffar are?
What is the status of the fourth category of Muslims who couldn't find a way to migrate
because they were weak and oppressed in the land?
They couldn't find a strategy or a plan to rid themselves of the disbelievers.
Their status is that they are real Muslims; they are neither hypocrites nor fasiqun.
They are victims of circumstances.
You can't find one good quality of the white and black kuffaar in Europe and America.
Why? Because they are human devils. They are human garbage; low life scums of the
earth.
THE FIFTH CATEGORY OF MUSLIMS WHO LIVE AMONGST THE KUFFAR
They are those who travel to their land for tourism and sightseeing.
These Muslims who go to these destinations for tourism and sightseeing, they dabble in
drugs, alcohol, zina, night clubs and casinos.
They're status is that they are sinful Muslims, faasiqun.

The Prophet said the tourism of his ummah is Jihad. They have gone against the
famous hadith of the Prophet by going to darul harb for sightseeing and tourism.
“The Siyaahah of my ummah is jihad for the sake of Allah.” Narrated by Abu
Dawood (2486); classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Sahih Abi
The Arabic word siyaahah in the above hadith means tourism.
These societies are very permissive societies; they allow everything.
Therefore they are not conducive to your Islamic faith.
THE SIXTH CATEGORY OF PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL TO DAARUL HARB
These are the taaifah mansoura; they are the mujahideen.
They travel to daarul harb to liberate the people from kufr, shirk and zandaqa.
Allah said fight them till there's no more fitnah.
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e.
worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for
Allah Alone [in the whole of the world[]]. But if they cease (worshipping
others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do. (Al-
Anfal 8:39)
Allah is saying to fight them till there's no more shirk on the land.
These mujahideen go to daarul harb to take the people from the servitude of man to
the servitude of Allah.
And to take them away from the narrowness of the dunya to the vastness of the
hereafter.
Because of this reality, the Prophet said Jihad is compulsory until Judgement Day.
On the authority of Jabir the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "... Jihad is
compulsory on you until Judgment Day..." [al-Mu'jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani
(5/95) No. 4775 and Abu Naeem al-Asbahani in 'Hilyatul Awliya' (3/73)]
As long as there is shirk in the world, we have to do jihad. We cannot hang up our
weapons.
Salamah bin Nufail Al-Kindi (RA) said that one day I was sitting with Prophet
(SAW) then a person said ”O Prophet of Allah! The value of horse has
decreased in the eyes of people and they have left the weapons and they say
that Jihad has ended, because battle has ended." On hearing this the Prophet
(SAW) faced him and said: "They are lying, fighting has stopped for now and
a section (group) of my Ummah will always fight (do Jihad) for the truth.
Allah will turn them away from Kufr to Imaan and will give them rizq from
amongst them until Qiyamah and until the promise of Allah comes. And Allah
has written good in the forehead of horses until Qiyamah. And He has
revealed on me that my ruh (soul) will be taken away and you will follow me
after dividing into several groups, and you will kill each other. And the center
(‘Uqr) of Mumineen (believers) is Ash-Shaam." [Sunan al-Nasa'i (6/214) No.
3561, Musnad Ahmad (4/104) No. 17006, Sahih Ibn Hibban (16/296) No.
7307]
The Prophet said a group from his ummah will forever do jihad until they meet up with
the army of the dajjal and fight the army of the dajjal.
Narrated By Muawiya: I heard the Prophet saying, "A group of people

amongst my followers will remain obedient to Allah's orders and they will not
be harmed by anyone who will not help them or who will oppose them, till
Allah's Order (the Last Day) comes upon them while they are still on the right
path." [Sahih Bukhari (4/207) No. 3641]
Imraan ibn Hussain (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, ‘A
group of people from my Ummah will continue to fight for the sake of the
truth until the last of them fights the Dajjal (anti-Christ) [Sunan Abu Dawud
(3/4) No. 2484, Musnad Ahmad (4/437) No. 19934, Mustadrak al-Haakim
(2/81) No. 2392]
WHY IT IS DANGEROUS TO LIVE IN DAARUL HARB
1 - THEIR IDEOLOGY, LAWS, CULTURE, MORALS, ETHICS AND ETHOS ARE

100% DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED TO OUR ISLAMIC VALUES.
Because of this, daarul harb is a fitnah for the Muslims.

Ibn Taymiyyah expressed this concern in the following fatwa:
Shaykh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said, “The state of a place reflects the
state of a person. It is possible to be sometimes a Muslim and at other times
a disbeliever; sometimes sincere and at other times hypocritical; sometimes
good and pious and at other times rotten and corrupt. Thus, a person
becomes like the place of his abode. The migration of a person from a land of
disbelief and profanity to one of faith and probity is an expression of
repentance and of his turning away from disobedience and perversion to
belief and obedience. This is so until the Day of Resurrection.” [Majmu’al-
Fatawa, (18/284)]
Ibn Hazm has expressed a similar concern in his fatwa:
Ibn Hazm (rh) states that: “Whoever joins the ‘land of war’ and disbelief, of
his own free will and in defiance of whoever amongst the Muslims calls him
to his side, is by virtue of this act an apostate, by all the laws of apostasy, in
Islam. Whoever is able to kill him must do so. His property is unprotected, his
marriage null and void, all his rights are swept away. [Ibn Hazm, al-Muhalla’:
(13/139-140)]
It's all about swelling the ranks.
Do you want to swell the ranks of the believers or the kuffaar?
It is obligatory to leave the lands of the Bidah (innovation). Imam Malik said:
"None of you may remain in a country where the Companions are cursed' [
Ibn al-Arabi, "Ahkaam al-Qur'an", Vol. 1/484-485.]
If we are not allowed to live in a land where the sahabah’s are cursed, what about to
live in a land where the Prophet is cursed with cartoons like they are doing presently in
Europe and America.
They use their film industry to curse Muhammad as well.
2 - IT GOES AGAINST AL WALA WAL BARA
To take up residence among the kuffaar in daarul harb goes against al wala wal bara.
Abdullah Ibn Umar said: "Whoever settles amongst the disbelievers,

celebrates their feasts and joins in their revelry and dies in their midst will
likewise be raised to stand with them on the Day of Resurrection. [ Ibn
Taymiyyah said in his book: "Iqtidha' as-Sifat alMustaqeem", p.200, that the
chain of narration of this Hadith is Sahih.] .
You are swelling the ranks of the enemy.
3 - IT PROVES YOU HAVE WEAK IMAN AND NO TAWAKKUL
He who emigrates (from his home) in the Cause of Allah, will find on earth
many dwelling places and plenty to live by. And whosoever leaves his home
as an emigrant unto Allah and His Messenger, and death overtakes him, his
reward is then surely incumbent upon Allah. And Allah is Ever OftForgiving,
Most Merciful. (An-Nisa 4:100)
You don't believe in the promise of Allah which is found in the above ayah.
And as for those who emigrated for the Cause of Allah, after suffering
oppression, We will certainly give them goodly residence in this world, but
indeed the reward of the Hereafter will be greater, if they but knew! (An-
Nahl 16:41)
(They are) those who remained patient (in this world for Allah's sake), and
put their trust in their Lord (Allah Alone). (An-Nahl 16:42)
By you living in daarul harb and refusing to migrate, it proves you don't believe in the
promise of Allah.
When a person is a munafiq, he always says Allah's promise is fake.
And when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease (of doubts)
said: "Allah and His Messenger (SAW) promised us nothing but delusions!"
(Al-Ahzab 33:12)
I'm not going to leave the UK, US, France, Germany, etc because what if I can't find
food
4 - YOU ARE SWELLING THE RANKS OF THE ENEMY
You are going to work and pay tax to them and they use your tax to kill Muslims.
They are going to force you to join their army and send you to the frontline to kill your
Muslim brothers, because kaafirs are dictators.
They were forcing Muhammad Ali to go to Vietnam. They took away his belt and put
him in prison for 5 years.
On June 20, 1967, Ali was convicted of draft evasion, sentenced to five years in prison,
fined $10,000 and banned from boxing for three years.
When you live in daarul harb they are going to force you to fight their freemasonic
wars.
When you don't go to war, they dump you in prison.
Living in daarul harb means you are living behind enemy lines.
They use wars to do a cull of populations they don't like.
The white man used the Vietnam war to do a cull of young black males.
It's called ethnic cleansing.
Many were sent to the frontline to die in the Vietnam War and the Korean war
5 - YOUR CHILDREN WILL BECOME CONFUSED
Children have young impressionable minds. They are confused between western culture
and Islamic culture.
They are confused between Islamic values and Western values. They are confused
between Islamic education and Western education.
They are confused about their religiosity. They don't know if there's a god.
They are confused about their sexuality; they don't know if they are straight or gay.
They are confused about their spirituality. They are not sure if they want to be a Muslim
anymore.
You are not sure if you want to hang on to Islam.
They are confused about their identity; they don't know if they are Muslim first or
British first.
That is the danger of living in daarul harb.
They are confused about their morailty; they are not sure what is halal and haraam
anymore.
Salman Rushdie said the best day in his life was when he ate pork at university.
Allah said you should save your family from the hellfire.
O you who believe! Ward off from yourselves and your families a Fire (Hell)
whose fuel is men and stones, over which are (appointed) angels stern (and)
severe, who disobey not, (from executing) the Commands they receive from
Allah, but do that which they are commanded. (At-Tahrim 66:6)
This means to leave daarul harb and go to daarul Islam.
Allah told you in the Qur'an some of your wives and children will prevent you from
migrating so beware of them.
O you who believe! Verily, among your wives and your children there are
enemies for you (i.e. may stop you from the obedience of Allah), therefore
beware of them! But if you pardon (them) and overlook, and forgive (their
faults), then verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (At-Taghabun
64:14)
6 - YOU WILL BE HUMILIATED BY THEIR MEDIA, THEIR CINEMA, THEIR

NEWSPAPERS AND THE SCHOOL SYLLABUS
In daarul harb, their media says every Muslim in the world is a terrorist.
Their media is owned by the zionists.
Their cinema makes a mockery of Muhammad, their cinema mocks Islam.
Allah told you about them in Surah 31:6.
And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e.music, singing, etc.) to

mislead (men) from the Path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it (the
Path of Allah, the Verses of the Qur'an) by way of mockery. For such there
will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-fire). (Luqman 31:6)
Their newspapers insult Muhammad with cartoons.
Imam Malik said it is haraam to live in a land where the companions of Muhammad are
insulted. So to live in a land where Muhammad is insulted is bigger kufr.
Imam Malik said: "None of you may remain in a country where the
Companions are cursed' [ Ibn al-Arabi, "Ahkaam al-Qur'an", Vol. 1/484-485.]
Their school syllabus teaches atheism and brainwashes your kids to believe to be gay is
normal and fornications is normal.
Their school syllabus was put together by the freemasons. Therefore the syllabus is
satanic and demonic.
Because the Muslims are being attacked 24 hours a day in the media, most of the
Muslims in daarul harb are suffering from inferiority complex.
This is exactly what the zionists want. Because inferiority complex is the first step
towards apostasy.
7 - WHEN YOU LIVE IN DAARUL HARB, YOU BECOME A FITNAH FOR THE
KUFFAR
Because they are supposed to treat you as equal citizens but they find it impossible
because of their hatred for you.
That's why you are a fitnah for them.
"Our Lord! Make us not a trial for the disbelievers, and forgive us, Our Lord!
Verily, You, only You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise." (Al-Mumtahinah 60:5)
That is a dua in the above ayah that you are supposed to make.
It means you are asking Allah not to allow you to become a fitnah for the kuffaar by
living amongst them in daarul harb for them to treat you badly.
That is one tafseer.

The second tafseer is: O Allah, do not allow the kuffar to defeat me on the battlefield
because if they defeat me on the battlefield they are going to believe their religion is
right and Islam is wrong.
They are going to believe their trinity is right but my tawheed is wrong.
That is the second tafseer.
The third tafseer: O Allah, do not allow me to become a POW in their midst.
That is a very powerful dua Allah told you to make.
How many of you make that dua?
When you live in daarul harb, the police pick on you. You suffer police harassment.
They fake charges against you. Sometimes when they arrest you, there's blood all ove
the floor. This is exactly what they did to Babar Ahmad. Four white racist cops did it.
The British are the most racist people in the world because the Sun newspaper is their
bible.
The Sun is the most racist newspaper in the world.
If I ask you for one good quality about the British, it is impossible.
When you live in daarul harb, they watch your browsing habits.
Then they section you off as a terrorist just by the websites you visited. Because daarul
harb is a police state
The illuminatis make daarul harb a police state because they are insecure. They are
insecure because they have the blood of innocents on their hands.
So they have to keep looking over their shoulders.
Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad
Peace be upon him ) till you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance
of Allah (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance. And if you (O
Muhammad Peace be upon him ) were to follow their (Jews and Christians)
desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur'an), then
you would have against Allah neither any Wali (protector or guardian) nor
any helper. (Al-Baqarah 2:120)
8 - THEY ARE GOING TO FORCE YOU TO APOSTATE
They bring out new laws each day that make it impossible for you to hang on to your
Islam.
Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad
Peace be upon him ) till you follow their religion. (Al-Baqarah 2:120)
Anas ibn Malik reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “A time will come
on the people when the patient among them on his religion will be like one
who holds live coal (in his hand). [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/526) No. 2260]
This hadith is talking about living in daarul harb behind enemy lines.
They are going to force you to apostate.
And they will never cease fighting you until they turn you back from your
religion (Islamic Monotheism) if they can. And whosoever of you turns back
from his religion and dies as a disbeliever, then his deeds will be lost in this
life and in the Hereafter, and they will be the dwellers of the Fire. They will
abide therein forever." (Al-Baqarah 2:217)
The above mentioned ayah tells you the infidels will force you to apostate if you live
amongst them.
And those who disbelieved, said to their Messengers: "Surely, we shall drive
you out of our land, or you shall return to our religion." So their Lord inspired
them: "Truly, We shall destroy the Zalimun (polytheists, disbelievers and
wrong-doers.). (Ibrahim 14:13)
"For if they come to know of you, they will stone you (to death or abuse and
harm you) or turn you back to their religion, and in that case you will never
be successful." (Al-Kahf 18:20)
The reason why the kaafirs want you to apostate is because they envy you for your
religion like Allah told you in Surah Baqarah verse 109.
Many of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish that if they
could turn you away as disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from
their ownselves, even, after the truth (that Muhammad Peace be upon him is
Allah's Messenger) has become manifest unto them. But forgive and
overlook, till Allah brings His Command. Verily, Allah is Able to do all things.
(Al-Baqarah 2:109)
9 - THEY'LL CARRY OUT EXTRA JUDICIAL KILLINGS OR ETHNIC

CLEANSING AGAINST THE UMMAH
Dr David Kelly wasn't convinced about the case for war. They killed him and dumped
him in the bushes.
They said he killed himself. The reason why they said he committed suicide because a
dead man cannot tell any tales.
http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/jul/16/david-kelly-death-10-years-on
They killed many of their citizens and claimed they committed suicides.
They throw many of their citizens from heights and say they committed suicide.
To kill your citizens is called extrajudicial killings.
If you don't toe the line in daarul harb, they kill you.
When you live in daarul harb, you may suffer what the Muslims are suffering in Burma
and CAR.
In CAR they killed the Muslims and ate them.
10 - THEY FORCE YOU TO DABBLE IN RIBA
The economic system of daarul harb is based on riba.
Everything has VAT. The VAT you pay is riba.
When I was living in Saudi Arabia, there was no VAT.
The kaafirs are very greedy.

Narrated Abu Hurayrah: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: A time is
certainly coming to mankind when only the receiver of usury will remain, and
if he does not receive it, some of its vapour will reach him. Ibn Isa said:
Some of its dust will reach him. (Abu Dawud, Book 22, Number 3325)
The above hadith is describing to us the economic system of daarul harb which is based
on riba.
The Prophet was predicting capitalism.
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "Riba has seventy
segments, the least serious being equivalent to a man committing adultery
with his own mother." [Sunan Ibn Majah (3/337) No. 2274 and Mustadrak
al-Haakim (2/43) No. 2259]
They force you to pay riba.
If you buy a pair of sneakers you have to pay VAT
11 - THEY MAKE IT A CRIME FOR YOU TO HELP YOUR MUSLIM BROTHERS

AND SISTERS FINANCIALLY
They say you are funding terrorism.
12 - THEY MAKE IT ILLEGAL FOR YOU TO JOIN THE CARAVAN
They say you are performing acts of terrorism.
You are not allowed to help the mujahideen to liberate occupied Muslim lands.
When they occupy your land and steal your oil, you are not allowed to stop them. If
you stop them, you are a terrorist.
13 - THERE IS NO SECURITY FOR YOU LIFE, WEALTH AND HONOUR AND

YOUR DEEN
The crime rate in daarul harb is too high for Muslims to live there.
Many Muslim women have been raped in daarul harb.
Many Muslims have their cars stolen in daarul harb and their houses burgled.
There's no security.
14 - WHEN YOU LIVE IN DAARUL HARB, YOU ARE LIVING AMONGST THE
WORST OF ALLAH'S CREATION
while those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as cattle eat, and the
Fire will be their abode. (Muhammad 47:12)
Or do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like
cattle; nay, they are even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worst than
cattle). (Al-Furqan 25:44)
Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'an and Prophet
Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) from among the people of the Scripture
(Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikun will abide in the Fire of Hell. They
are the worst of creatures. (Al-Baiyinah 98:6)
The above mentioned verses are clear evidence that the kuffar are the worst of Allah's
creation.
15 - WHEN YOU LIVE AMONG THEM, YOU WILL BE RAISED AMONG THEM ON
THE DAY OF JUDGMENT
On the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr who said: “Anyone who lived in the
land of the infidels and celebrated their religious festivals and imitated them
till he died in that state, will be raised among them on the Day of Judgment.”
[al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (9/392) No. 18864]
Narrated By Anas: A bedouin came to the Prophet and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! When will The Hour be established?" The Prophet said, "Wailaka
(Woe to you), What have you prepared for it?" The bedouin said, "I have not
prepared anything for it, except that I love Allah and His Apostle." The
Prophet said, "You will be with those whom you love." We (the companions
of the Prophet) said, "And will we too be so? The Prophet said, "Yes." So we
became very glad on that day. In the meantime, a slave of Al-Mughira passed
by, and he was of the same age as I was. The Prophet said. "If this (slave)
should live long, he will not reach the geriatric old age, but the Hour will be
established." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 73, Hadith #188]
Since we will be resurrected with those whom we live with, we should live in daarul
Islam not daarul harb.

Bismillah...
It is not enough to have the correct Aqeedah

- it is haraam to call Islam an ideology, Islam is not an idea of a mad man
- the proper word is creed
- Aqeedah - Aqadah - tightly tied - to Quran and Sunnah
- this is why your belief is called Aqeedah because your belief is tightly tied to Quran and Sunnah
- you do not deviate from Quran or Sunnah
- you need correct character to go with correct Aqeedah
What is the point in having correct Aqeedah, if you do haraam?

- i.e. you are evil, you take drugs, you go to nightclubs etc
- to have the correct Aqeedah is not enough for you to be marriage material
Muslim's living in the West

- a lot of them have been corrupted in Aqeedah, they live in darul harb
- there are not many people with correct Aqeedah and a good Muslim character
- some of these people are worse than kuffaar, when it comes to character
- the amount of things some Muslims get up to in darul harb, would make you want to vomit
- if you are a weak Muslim in darul harb you should go and live in a Muslim country
Ayyub ibn Musa reported on the authority of his father who from his grand father that Allah’s
Messenger (SAW) said, “No father gave a better gift to his son than (teaching) good manners."
[Tirmidhi 1959, Ahmed 15403]
- the best thing a father can give to his child is a good character
- many times you see Muslim children and they don’t have a good character
- because they were not raised properly by their parents
- Tarbiyya (Islamic up-bringing)
- the heaviest thing on the scales on the Day of Judgment is a good character
Narrated By Abu Darda': The Prophet (SAW) said: "There is nothing heavier than good character
put in the scale of a believer on the Day of Resurrection." [Abu Dawud 4799, Tirmidhi 2002, Ahmed

- some people don’t find Islam interesting, they feel as if it is a burden

- when you have a good heart, your good heart gives you a good character
- when you have an evil heart, it gives you an evil character
- in the bosom is a lump of flesh and if this is pure all of you becomes pure, words of the Rasul (SAW)
"There is in the body a clump of flesh - if it becomes good, the whole body becomes good and if it
becomes bad, the whole body becomes bad. And indeed it is the heart." [Bukhari, Volume 1, Book
2, Number 49]
Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, "The most perfect of believers in
belief is the best of them in character. The best of you are those who are the best to their women."
[Tirmidhi 1165, Abu Dawud 4682]
Murji'a
- their women don’t cover their hair
- they don’t fast
- they don’t give to the poor
- they believe Islam is in their hearts
- they are liars
- if Islam was in their hearts, we would see it in their actions
- so when you say: “even though I don’t pray and I don’t fast, I am still a Muslim”, who are you kidding?
- they think we are stupid for us to believe their rubbish talk: "I don’t practise, but Islam is in my heart"
- if Islam was in your heart, you would be practising
- whenever you look in the mirror there is a du'a that you recite
Moral hygiene also was emphasized, for the Prophet, upon him be God’s blessings and peace,
encouraged Muslims to make a special prayer upon seeing themselves in the mirror: “God, You
have endowed me with a good form; like-wise bless me with an immaculate character ”(Ibn
Hanbal, Musnad, 1:34, 6:155)
- "O Allah you have made my face beautiful so make my character beautiful as well"
- the prophet (SAW) use to seek refuge from many things:
- weakness, being lazy, from being a wimp, from being stingy, losing memory in old age, hard-
heartedness, etc
- those who have no mercy in their hearts mercy will not be shown to them
Jarir ibn 'Abdullah reported that the Messenger of Allah said, "If someone does not show mercy to
people, Allah will not show mercy to him." [al-Bukhari (7376) and Muslim (5737)]
Abdullah ibn Amr (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “Those who are merciful will
be given mercy by the Most Merciful. Be merciful to those on the earth and the One above the
heavens will have mercy on you.” [Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 40, Hadith #4941]
Narrated By Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle kissed Al-Hasan bin Ali while Al-Aqra' bin Habis At-
Tamim was sitting beside him. Al-Aqra said, "I have ten children and I have never kissed anyone
of them," Allah's Apostle cast a look at him and said, "Whoever is not merciful to others will not
be treated mercifully." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 73, Hadith #026]
- to say Allah is in heaven, that is Christianity

- to say Allah is everywhere, this is what the Jews believe
- to say Allah is above the heavens, this is what a Muslim believes
- just when you think the kuffaar have done enough, they do more, these people are disgusting
- they come out with more things on an everyday bases

AFGHAN KILLING KAAFIR SOLDIERS WITH A KNIFE:

- Umar ibn Al-Khattab said: we were people with no honour and Allah give us honour through Islam
- Umar said if anybody tries to get nobility from a source
- other than Islam they will be disgraced in the land
During his Caliphate, Umar - radi Allahu 'anhu - once set out for Ash-Shaam and with him was Abu
Ubaydah. They came upon a deep creek which they needed to cross. So Umar took off his sandals
and carried them on his shoulders. Then he took the reign of the camel and began plowing
through the water. Abu Ubaydah - seeing the Khaleefah of the Muslims in this state - felt saddened
and said, "I fear that the people of the village will think you un-honourable." Umar said, "Oh Abu
Ubaydah, if only someone less knowledgeable than you made such a statement. We were of the
most disgraced of people and Allah granted us honour with this Islam. Now, whenever we seek
honour in other than that which Allah honoured us with, Allah shall disgrace us (once again)."
Hosni Mubaruk
- he loved the Jews so much, he didn’t want to offend his Jewish 'brothers'
- he tried to get honour from Jews and now he is finished
- you can’t buy love from a Gora (white kaafir)
- these Goras don’t love themselves, that’s why they kill themselves
House of Saud
- when America declared his war on Islam, the Pakistani regime and Saudi rallied behind them
- but what happened to them? the crusaders killed them, the crusaders were killing the Brelvis
- what a great day it was!
NATO KILLS DOZENS OF PAKISTANI SOLDIERS:

Two Qiblas
- the black house in Makkah and the white house in Washington
- you need to decide which Qibla you want
- the one built by Ibraheem (AS) or the one owned by the kuffaar
- you need to decide which one you want, white or black
Allah says
They (hyprocrites) say: "If we return to Al-Madinah, indeed the more honourable ('Abdûllah bin
Ubai bin Salul, the chief of hyprocrites at Al¬Madinah) will expel therefrom the meaner (i.e. Allah's
Messenger SAW)." But honour, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger (Muhammad
SAW), and to the believers, but the hypocrites know not. (Al-Munafiqun 63:8)
“If you deal in usury (riba) and hang onto the tails of cows, being satisfied with cultivation and
ceasing to take part in Jihad, Allah will inflict a humiliation upon you which will not be removed
until you return to your religion.” [Reported by Ahmad and Abu Dawud and graded as authentic
by Al-Qattan. Al-Hafiz states in Al-Bulugh that the chain of narrators is trustworthy and reliable]
- the munafiqun don’t realise this

- if you practise interest and leave behind jihad, Allah causes ignobility to fall upon you
- meaning no Izzah
- what’s the difference between Miskeen and Faqeer?
- the Faqeer can find food but he has no savings
- Miskeen - he can’t find food and he eats out of the trash can, this is the Miskeen
And proclaim the Grace of your Lord (i.e. the Prophethood and all other Graces). (Ad-Duha 93:11)
Narrated By 'Aisha: The Prophet used to seek refuge with Allah (by saying), "O Allah! I seek
refuge with You from the affliction of the Fire and from the punishment in the Fire, and seek
refuge with You from the affliction of the grave, and I seek refuge with You from the affliction of
wealth, and I seek refuge with You from the affliction of poverty, and seek refuge with You from
the affliction of Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal" [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 75, Hadith #387]
- shaytan uses poverty as a weapon and then he commands you to do shameful things
and Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower. (Al-Baqarah 2:268)
- the scholars of Islam say, this shameful act is prostitution

- if you go on youtube you will see what’s going on in the world
- "there are no problems in the world, the problem is only in your mind", this is how these people think
- the prophet (SAW) kept in touch with current events (fiqhul waaqi)
- this was how he got to know about the justice if the Negus in Ethiopia
- he kept in touch with current events to make right decisions
- the prophet (SAW) use to seek refuge from disbelief
- also from sins, miserable, from showing off, dumb, deaf, madness, anorexia etc
- many women suffer anorexia in Europe, they are very skinny and you can see their bones
- the white man tells them that, if you are not skinny, you are not real women
- these women are oppressed, in Islam a woman is liberated
- if you marry an anorexic woman she may die when she’s thirty
Being Obese
- there are many people who die from being obese
- the believer eats with one intestine, the kuffaar eat with seven
Ibn Umar (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, “The disbeliever eats in seven intestines
while the believer eats in one intestine.’ [al-Bukhari (5393) and Muslim (2060)]

“Poverty, in all probability, leads to unbelief (kufr).” [Bayhaqi and Tabarani]
- the prophet (SAW) used three words to describe poverty

- Umar said poverty leads to kufr
- even the crusaders know that poverty leads to this
you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidûn (those who commit
great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupts). (Al-Qasas 28:77)
- the purpose of sending Muhammad (SAW) is to give you a good character
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "I was
sent to perfect good character." [Maliks Muwatta, Book 47, Hadith #008]
Indeed in the Messenger of Allah (Muhammad SAW) you have a good example to follow for him
who hopes in (the Meeting with) Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much. (Al-Ahzab
33:21)
He it is Who sent among the unlettered ones a Messenger (Muhammad SAW) from among
themselves, reciting to them His Verses, purifying them (from the filth of disbelief and
polytheism), and teaching them the Book (this Qur'an, Islamic laws and Islamic jurisprudence)
and Al-Hikmah (As-Sunnah: legal ways, orders, acts of worship, etc. of Prophet Muhammad SAW).
And verily, they had been before in mainfest error; (Al-Jumu'ah 62:2)
And verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) are on an exalted standard of character. (Al-Qalam 68:4)
History repeats itself
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter. (Al-Humuzah 104:1)
Who has gathered wealth and counted it, (Al-Humuzah 104:2)

First Mischief
- slandering prophets
Second Mischief
- 1948 - establishing Israel
- killing Muslims etc
- the enemies of Muhammad will have no hope in the future, this is a promise of Allah
Verily, We have granted you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) Al-Kauthar (a river in Paradise);
(Al-Kawthar 108:1)
Therefore turn in prayer to your Lord and sacrifice (to Him only). (Al-Kawthar 108:2)
For he who makes you angry (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), - he will be cut off (from every
good thing in this world and in the Hereafter). (Al-Kawthar 108:3)
- Abu Lahab and his wife are going to hellfire, this is another promise of Allah
Perish the two hands of Abû Lahab (an uncle of the Prophet), and perish he! (Al-Masad 111:1)
His wealth and his children (etc.) will not benefit him! (Al-Masad 111:2)
He will be burnt in a Fire of blazing flames! (Al-Masad 111:3)
And his wife too, who carries wood (thorns of Sadan which she used to put on the way of the
Prophet
(Peace be upon him) , or use to slander him). (Al-Masad 111:4)
In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad (palm fibre). (Al-Masad 111:5)
- in order for you to be a good Muslim

- you need to show respect to your parents and the elders
- respect to the Muslim leaders
Al-Ash'ari said, "Part of respect for Allah is to show respect to an old Muslim and to someone who
knows the Qur'an, as long as he does not go to excess in it nor turn away from it, and to respect a
just ruler." [Al-Adab al-Mufrad Al-Bukhari, Hadith #357]
Anas ibn Maalik narrated: An old man came to meet the Prophet The people were slow to give him
passage. So, the Prophet (SAW) said, “He is not one of us who is not compassionate to our young
(children) and respectful to our old.” [Tirmidhi 1926, Bukhari 354]
- Hassan and Hussain went to the Masjid and saw a man doing Wudhu
- the man was Jahil and did not know how to make Wudhu properly
- they wanted to teach him, so they had a competition between each other
- they asked the man to judge on, who is better, they did not disrespect the elderly man
One day an old pious Bedouin came to Medina. At the time of Prayers he began to make wudu’ but
he was making his wudu' (ablution) incorrectly. Hassan and Hussain (Allah be pleased with them
both) saw the old man making wudu’ wrong and they wanted to correct him. They didn’t want to
offend him or make him feel insulted, so they came up with a plan. They went to the old man and
said, "My brother and I disagree over who amongst us performs wudu’ the best. Would you mind
watching us make wudu’ and be the judge to see which one of us indeed performs wudu' more
correctly? Could you please correct us wherever we are wrong?" The man watched carefully
trying to judge who is better. In the end he understood what was going on and said "By Allah, I
did not know how to perform wudu’ before this. You have both taught me how to do it correctly."
- if you are not a practising Muslim you become a human devil

- the society of the kuffaar is nothing but an habitation for human devils
YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HATE THE FOLLOWING THREE
1. A SINCERE SCHOLAR OF ISLAM

2. A JUST RULER
3. AN OLD MUSLIM
WHEN EVER YOU HEAR THE PROPHETS NAME

- you should ALWAYS say Sallallahu Alayhi Wasalam
- a person that does not say this is a stingy person
Ali ibn Abu Talib (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “The miser is he before whom I
am mentioned but he does not invoke blessings on me.” [Tirmidhi 3557, Ahmed 1736]
Allah says
Allah sends His Salat (Graces, Honours, Blessings, Mercy, etc.) on the Prophet (Muhammad SAW)
and also His angels too (ask Allah to bless and forgive him). O you who believe! Send your Salat
on (ask Allah to bless) him (Muhammad SAW), and (you should) greet (salute) him with the Islamic
way of greeting (salutation i.e. As¬Salamu 'Alaikum). (Al-Ahzab 33:56)
It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (RA) said: The Prophet (SAW) ascended the minbar and said:
Ameen.’ So I said Ameen.” [Narrated by Ibn Hibbaan, 3/188]
- female sahabah - radiallahu anha

- male sahabah - radiallahu anhu
- a scholar of Islam that is dead - rahimaullah
e.g Shaikh Anwar Awlaki (rahimaullah)
- a sincere scholar that is alive - hafizullah
e.g Shaikh Muhammad Al Maqdasi you say (hafizullah)
- with regards the fitna that took place between Ali and Muawiyah (RA)
- you are not allowed to insult either of them
And those who came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded
us in Faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed. Our Lord! You
are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful. (Al-Hashr 59:10)
- you have to show respect to all the four great imams

- you must have an expert in fiqh to teach you, this is called faqeeh
- and also you must have an expert in Aqeedah to teach you
- you cannot shop around to get the correct opinion
- when you are taught Aqeedah
- you are aware of all these wrong groups
- i.e the Mad MADkhalis (Saudi Salafis), the Shi’as, the Goofy Soofis
- they are all viruses in the Ummah, so you need an expert to teach you

Bismillah…
- there are many traits needed in the Muslim’s

1ST TRAIT: RESPECT TO THOSE IN AUTHORITY
- is to respect those in authority and obey their leadership, these are:
i. POLITICAL LEADERSHIP
ii. MILITARY LEADERSHIP
iii. RELIGIOUS LEADERSHIP
- you only obey the political leader, if he implements the Shariah

- else he should be toppled
Prophet (saws) said topple the leader if you see clear kufr [Bukhari Vol 9 Page 146]
O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and those of you
(Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah
and His Messenger (SAW), if you believe in Allah and in the Last Day. That is better and more
suitable for final determination. (An-Nisa 4:59)
- the wicked scholars should not be obeyed

- the leader should be from among you
- we've seen the leaders joining the United Nations, International Monetary Fund etc
- you are not allowed to join an organisation that is based on kufr
- you should only join groups based on Islam
- don’t join regimes like Gaddafi, Bashar Al Asaad etc

- the regime of Gaddafi which is now in the dustbin of history
- the family of Bashar Al Asaad were running away, but came under attack from the Mujahideen
- these toppled leaders sought honour from other than Islam and they are now disgraced
During his Caliphate, Umar - radi Allahu 'anhu - once set out for Ash-Shaam and with him was Abu
Ubaydah. They came upon a deep creek which they needed to cross. So Umar took off his sandals
and carried them on his shoulders. Then he took the reign of the camel and began plowing
through the water. Abu Ubaydah - seeing the Khaleefah of the Muslims in this state - felt saddened
and said, "I fear that the people of the village will think you un-honourable." Umar said, "Oh Abu
Ubaydah, if only someone less knowledgeable than you made such a statement. We were of the
most disgraced of people and Allah granted us honour with this Islam. Now, whenever we seek
honour in other than that which Allah honoured us with, Allah shall disgrace us (once again)".
RESPECTING THE ELDERS

- the rasul (SAW) said he's not of us who doesn't respect the elders
Anas ibn Maalik narrated: An old man came to meet the Prophet The people were slow to give him
passage. So, the Prophet (SAW) said, “He is not one of us who is not compassionate to our young
(children) and respectful to our old.” [Tirmidhi 1926, Bukhari 354]
- so as a Muslim you should show respect to those in authority

- if the authority is an Islamic one, else you should topple it
YOU SHOULD NOT HATE THREE PEOPLE:

i. A RIGHTEOUS SCHOLAR OF ISLAM
ii. AN OLD MUSLIM
iii. A JUST RULER
- whenever you hear Muhammad, you should say (SAW)

- else you are stingy
Ali ibn Abu Talib (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “The miser is he before whom I
am mentioned but he does not invoke blessings on me.” [Tirmidhi 3557, Ahmed 1736]
- the other prophets = Alayhi Salaam

- a male Sahabah = Radi'allahu Anhu
- a female Sahabah = Radi'allahu Anha
- a sincere Shaikh who is dead = rahimuhullah
- if he's alive = hafidhahullah
- the Shi’ites say karamallah wajhah, when the name of Ali (RA) is mentioned
- this is bid'ah, the people who practice bid’ah should not be given respect
Those who give respect to a bid'ati (innovator in Religion) surely will be counted as a helper of
destroying Islam. (Mishkat Sharif, p.31) (From The Virtues of Sunnah and the evils of Bid'ah in
Islam by Mufti Sayyid 'Abd al-Rahim Sahib Lajpuri)
- when history tells a situation in which the pious predecessors had a conflict
- e.g. Ali and Muawiyya
- you should not condemn either of them
- but your response should be 2:134
- Hassan Al Basri quoted this verse when he was asked about them
- you were not there and won’t be asked about it on judgment day
- so be concerned with what you'll be ask about
- e.g. the current situation of the Ummah, what have you done about that?
And those who came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded
us in Faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed. Our Lord! You
are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful. (Al-Hashr 59:10)
- you are suppose to respect and love the Sahabahs

- 59:10 serves this purpose, it protects your heart from hatred of Sahabahs
- so hypocrites hate the Sahabahs and insult them like the Shi’ites
- you need to respect the 4 great imams too
- and when they differ you choose the one closest to Quran and Sunnah
- and they all said that if the hadith is Sahih, then that is their Madhab
- some people reject hadiths that contradicts their Madhab, they are rigid in their Madhab
When the crusaders were invading Spain

- the scholars were busy discussing whether it is permissible for the different Madhabs to inter marry
- the four Imams were teachers and students of one another
- it is compulsory to have a Shaikh who shops around for the right fiqh ruling
SHAIKH IN SOUTH AFRICA

- some people claim that all one needs is to read Quran and hadith and derive fatwas with regards fiqh
- many reverts Shaikh gave shahadah in S. Africa come from Christianity
- and hence can’t read Quran and hadith to derive fatwas
- so they need a Shaikh to explain things to them
- you should ask if you don’t know 16:43
So ask of those who know the Scripture [learned men of the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel)], if you know not. (An-Nahl 16:43)
- if you learn your Aqeedah you are saved from the viruses
- e.g. the MADkhalis, Goofy Soofis, the Shi’ites etc
- their viruses are so evident that you don’t need a microscope to see them
- the mad MADkhalis passed a recent fatwa saying the greatest jihad is to fight the Mujahideen
SHAIKH FAWZAAN CLAIMS THE GREATEST JIHAD IS TO KILL MUJAHIDEEN:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wwJPZTDJw8
There are Two Types of Salafis:

- the Salafi Jihadi and the Saudi Salafi
- the Salafi Jihadi calls for Jihad, Khilafah and Shariah
- the Saudi Salafi are the mad MADkhalis, they cooperate with the MI5/FBI to catch the Mujahideen
- they are Zindeeq, you should not pray behind them, nor marry your daughters to them
- they have no shame hence pass such fatwas
- wicked scholars like Yusuf Qaradawi
- the wicked are easy to recognise, they believe in democracy, they don’t reject the Taghoot
Abu Dhar said, "I was with the Prophet (SAW) one day and I heard him saying: "There is
something I fear for my Ummah than the Dajjal." It was then that I became afraid, so I said: " Oh
Rasool Allah! Which thing is that?" He (SAW) said; "Misguided and astray scholars." Recorded in
Musnad Imam Ahmad (no.21,334 and no.21,335).
- they like to do interfaith dialogue, Allah asked them in surah 68:35-36
Shall We then treat the (submitting) Muslims like the Mujrimûn (criminals, polytheists and
disbelievers, etc.)? (Al-Qalam 68:35)
What is the matter with you? How judge you? (Al-Qalam 68:36)
- they claim to be searching for a common ground, for the Abrahamic faiths which doesn’t exist
- we are unique in our Tauheed
- we have nothing in common: with regards to Allah (SWT), Muhammad, Jesus etc
Indeed, Allah has heard the statement of those (Jews) who say: "Truly, Allah is poor and we are
rich!" We shall record what they have said and their killing of the Prophets unjustly, and We shall
say: "Taste you the torment of the burning (Fire)." (Aali Imran 3:181)
surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimûn (polytheists
and wrong¬doers and unjust). (Al-Ma'idah 5:51)
2ND TRAIT: YOU NEED TO BE SELFLESS NOT SELFISH

- the rasul (SAW) says:
Narrated by Anas ibn Malik (RA) that the Prophet (SAW) said: “No one of you truly believes until
he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” [al-Bukhari (13) and Muslim (45)]
- in the West they are very selfish

- they say “God helps those who help themselves”, there is some truth to what they are saying
- because there is an ayah that says, man will only accomplish what he saw
- but they go to the extreme, in that they don’t help each other
Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported that Allahs Messenger (SAW) said “If anyone relieves a Muslims
hardship in this world then Allah will remove from him a hardship of the hereafter. And if anyone
conceals a Muslims fault then Allah will conceal (his fault) in the world and the hereafter. And
Allah goes on helping the slave as long as the slave helps his brother. [Tirmidhi 1430, Muslim
2699, Abu Dawud 4946, Ahmed 7431]
- Shaikh studied in Saudi Arabia and saw no one eating from thrash
- the West is a very selfish culture
- this shows the superiority of Islamic over the western culture
- we follow Abraham (AS) who prepared a good meal for his guests (the angels)
The Messenger of Allah said: “Anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should not harm
his neighbor, and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should entertain his guest
generously and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should say what is good or keep
quite”. (Sahih Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol.8 pg.29 No.47)
- selfishness has no room in Islam

- the selfish people have evil character and always ends in divorce
- all they know is: “me, myself and I”
3RD TRAIT: YOU NEED TO BE TRUTHFUL

- Allah says in 9:119
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allah, and be with those who are true (in words and deeds). (At-
Tawbah 9:119)
- but you can lie in the following:
YOU CAN LIE ON THREE OCCASIONS:
i. IN BATTLE
- war is deception
ii. TO RECONCILE BETWEEN TWO MUSLIMS

- because the Islamic brotherhood and sisterhood is sacred
iii. TO SAVE A MARRIAGE
...Ibn Shihab said he did not hear that exemption was granted in anything what the people speak
as lie but in three cases: in battle, for bringing reconciliation amongst persons and the narration
of the words of the husband to his wife, and the narration of the words of a wife to her husband (in
a twisted form in order to bring reconciliation between them). [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith
#6303]
Narrated Ka'b ibn Malik: When the Prophet (SAW) intended to go on an expedition, he always
pretended to be going somewhere else, and he would say: "War is deception". [Abu Dawud 2629,
Tirmidhi 1681, Ahmed 14312]
4TH TRAIT: YOU NEED TO BE TRUSTWORTHY

- you can’t trust everyone
- you need to know who to trust
- if he doesn’t pray, pay Zakah etc then he can’t be trusted
ON THE AUTHORITY OF ANAS IBN MALIK A man without trust is a man without faith. And a man
who does not fulfill his promises is a man without faith. HADITH OF AHMAD IBN HANBAL.
- if you are bitten the same way twice, it means you are weak
A believer is not bitten from the same hole twice.” (Related by Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Abu
- if we can’t trust you, you have no Deen

- many of you can’t keep a secret and let it out when you have a fight
- with the one who entrusted you with the secret
- men can keep secrets more than women (this is Shaikh’s experience)
- a man without honour won’t hesitate to rob you because he has nothing to lose
- some Muslims are so evil, Muslim women don’t want to marry them
- don’t molest kids because if girls are molested she'll either be a lesbian or will be a prostitute
- saying; if her close relative can do that to her, how can she trust another man?
- your close people (relatives) you should feel safe with you
- people seek a character reference before getting married, this is to build the trust
- some men marry for money and rip-off their wives
- trust is a beautiful quality to have trust in your character
Yusuf (AS) was trustworthy

- that was why he was given the job of the minister in Egypt
And the king said: "Bring him to me that I may attach him to my person." Then, when he spoke to
him, he said: "Verily, this day, you are with us high in rank and fully trusted." (Yusuf 12:54)
[Yûsuf (Joseph)] said: "Set me over the storehouses of the land; I will indeed guard them with full
knowledge" (as a minister of finance in Egypt, in place of Al-'Aziz who was dead at that
time).(Yusuf 12:55)
Musa (AS) was also trustworthy

- the girl told her father that Musa (AS) was trustworthy and should hire him
- the first opinion is that she had Firaasa (intuition), that was why she recognised Musa’s quality
And said one of them (the two women): "O my father! Hire him! Verily, the best of men for you to
hire is the strong, the trustworthy." (Al-Qasas 28:26)
- what a wonderful advice she gave to her father

- another opinion is that, Musa lowered his gaze when he saw them and that is the correct opinion
- many people were fired because they were caught stealing

- so how can they get a good character reference from their former employer
- these are examples from Quran
- let’s now look at example from hadith
- Muhammad (SAW) was called Al-Ameen (the trustworthy), long before he became a rasul
- so the kufaar couldn’t make up anything against his character
- the poets don’t practice what they preach
The life of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him) has been said by his wife,
Aisha (RA) to be like "a walking Qur’an", embodying the Laws of Almighty Allah (subhaana wa
taalah).
- they held the meeting because they needed to be united

- when slandering his name because he was the walking Quran, he practiced what he preached
-Allah spoke about this in surah 74:18-26
Verily, he thought and plotted; (Al-Muddaththir 74:18)
So let him be cursed! How he plotted! (Al-Muddaththir 74:19)
And once more let him be cursed, how he plotted! (Al-Muddaththir 74:20)
And once more let him be cursed, how he plotted! (Al-Muddaththir 74:20)
Then he thought; (Al-Muddaththir 74:21)
Then he frowned and he looked in a bad tempered way; (Al-Muddaththir 74:22)
Then he turned back and was proud; (Al-Muddaththir 74:23)
Then he said: "This is nothing but magic from that of old; (Al-Muddaththir 74:24)
"This is nothing but the word of a human being!" (Al-Muddaththir 74:25)
I will cast him into Hell-fire (Al-Muddaththir 74:26)
- this is one of the predictions of the Quran, Waleed Ibn Mugheera died a kaafir
- he wanted to be a prophet, he was jealous of the rasul
And they say: "Why is not this Qur'an sent down to some great man of the two towns (Makkah and
Ta'if)?" (Az-Zukhruf 43:31)
- Allah will never reveal the Quran to a man who is not trustworthy
- when he was making hijrah
- he left Ali behind to return all the properties of the kuffaar that were entrusted to him
- the kuffaar trusted him with their wealth
- Allah (SWT) offered the responsibility of Islam to the mountains but they refused to take it
- we took it and Allah trusted us, yet we don’t implement the Shariah
- we implement everything except the Shariah
Truly, We did offer Al¬Amanah (the trust or moral responsibility or honesty and all the duties
which Allah as ordained) to the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they declined to
bear it and were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of Allah's Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he was unjust
(to himself) and ignorant (of its results). (Al-Ahzab 33:72)
- some people make indecent proposals to brother's wife

- Zina is a debt you owe
- there is no sex before marriage in Islam
Stay chaste and your women will be chaste, and save yourself from that which is unfit for a
Muslim. Verily, adultery is a debt, if you have taken this debt, know that its payment will be taken
from the people of your household. One who commits adultery, in return adultery will be
committed with him, even though it will be committed against the wall of your house. O man! If
you are wise then you should know it (Diwan Ash-Shafi'i)
There are Two Types of Proposals:

i. Praiseworthy – i.e. Nikah
ii. Blameworthy – i.e. Zina
- the hypocrites hide in Wallahi

- to con the believers and they are evil
- Imam Malik kicked the hypocrite from his study circle because it is contagious
Imam Malik: "Allah's rising over the throne is known, and how is unknown, to have faith in it is
obligatory and to question it is an innovation ". Then he said to the questioner: "I do not think
except that you are an evil man". So he ordered him to be expelled
- Umar chopped off the head of the man who asked for his opinion after the rasul (SAW) gave his verdict
- no one condemned him for this, if the rasul doesn’t condemn anything then it is hadith
- e.g. Khalid Ibn Walid eating the lizard
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn Hunayf from Abdullah ibn
Abbas that Khalid ibn al-Walid ibn al-Mughira entered the house of Maimuna, the wife of the
Prophet (SAW), with the Messenger of Allah (SAW), and he was brought a roasted lizard. The
Messenger of Allah (SAW), stretched his hand toward it. One of the women who was in Maimuna's
house said, "Tell the Messenger of Allah (SAW), what he means to eat." Someone said, "It is a
lizard, Messenger of Allah." He withdrew his hand. Khalid said, "Is it haram, Messenger of Allah?"
He said, "No, but there were none in my people's land, and I find that I dislike them."
Khalid added, "I chewed and ate it while the Messenger of Allah (SAW), was looking." [Maliks
Muwatta, Book 54, Hadith #010]

Bismillah…
RECAP
- This topic is very important; therefore we won’t rush through the topic
- the majority of Muslims are living in darul harb and if you do, it takes a toll on your character
- whenever you have milk and don’t want it to go off, you put it in a refrigerator
- therefore you need to put the Muslim in an Islamic environment
The kufaar have the Mardi Gras and they march for Gay people
- this is what you see in darul harb
You come to Paltalk and listen to Qur'an and Sunnah for 2 or 3 hours
- but the rest of the time you are in the society
- and you can’t be living in a cancer and not get affected by it
Many Muslim sisters living in darul harb are not married

- because they can’t find a man with the right Aqeedah and character
- some have right Aqeedah but no good character and vice versa
TRUSTWORTHINESS
- can we trust you with our wives, money etc?
- will you pay our money back when we lend you or you will steal it?
- some Muslims steal as if there is no judgment
The Prophet (PBUH) said: “The one who gets married with the intention not to pay dowry to his
wife is a fornicator. And the one who borrows money with the intention not to pay back is a thief.”
(Ibn Hiban, 2/270)
Rasul (SAW) said if you borrow money not to pay it back is a thief
- and this is what people do nowadays, that is stealing
A man bore witness in the presence of Ùmar ibn al-Khattaab (RA), so Ùmar said to him: “I do not
know you, and it does not harm you that I do not know you, but bring someone who does know
you.” So a man said: ‘I know him, O Chief of the Believers.’ Umar said: “What do you know of
him?” The man said: ‘Uprightness.’ Umar said: “Is he your closest neighbour; so that you know
about his night and his day, and his comings and goings?” The man said: ‘No.’ Umar said: “So
have you had (monetary) dealings with him involving dirhams and deenars, which will indicate his
piety?” The man said: ‘No.’ Umar said: “Then has he been your companion upon a journey which
could indicate to you his good character?” The man said: ‘No.’ Umar said: “Then you do not know
him.” Then he said to the man (who bore witness): “Bring me someone who knows you."
[Reported by Al-Bayhaqi and classed as Sahih by Al-Albani in Irwaa' Al-Ghaleel; 2637]
Money is a fitnah
- it's when you do business with him that you know him or if you travel with him
- that’s when you will see his true colors
Rasul (SAW) said
A man without trust is a man without faith. And a man who does not fulfill his promises is a man
without faith. HADITH OF AHMAD IBN HANBAL. ON THE AUTHORITY OF ANAS IBN MALIK
-if we can’t trust you, you have no Deen

-a man without trust is a man without faith
Hudhayfah (RA) narrated: Allah’s Messenger (SAW) related to us two ahadith one of which I have
seen take place and I await the other to happen. He said to us, “Faith came down deep into the
roots of men’s hearts. Then the Qur’an descended, so they learnt from the Qur’an and they learnt
from the Sunnah (the right of faith).” After that he told us about withdrawal of trust (faith). He said,
“A man will sleep and faith will be withdrawn from his heart leaving its mark like a speckle. He will
sleep again and faith will be withdrawn leaving a mark like if a live coal dropped on your foot
causing a water blister with nothing in it.” Then, he picked up a pebble and dropped it on his foot.
He said, “People will transact business with each other but there would hardly be one who
honours his commitment, so that it would be said that among such-and-such tribe there is a man
worth trusting, and a man will be praised as wise, very good and firm, though he will not have in
his heart even so much faith as a grain of mustard seed.” Indeed I had gone through the times
when I bought and sold without hesitation. If a Muslim had to pay me my right then he came there
himself to hand it over to me. If right he was a Jew or Christian, their chiefs got for me my rights.
But, now-a-days, I do not deal with anyone though so-and-so and so-and-so do make
transactions. [al-Bukhari (6497) and Muslim (143)]
One of the signs of the last days is that Amaanah will be lifted up
- this is so prevalent and rife in the Ummah, that even the Shaikhs have become dodgy
- they pass dodgy fatwas
-e.g. Yusuf Qaradawi said you can join the army
THE NOTORIOUS FATWA OF YUSUF QARADAWI:

http://forums.islamicawakening.com/f20/the-notorious-fatwaa-of-yusuf-qaradawi-16289/
- Al Fawzani said the greatest jihad is to fight the Mujahideen, this is a Saudi Salafi fatwa

SATANIC FATWA OF BIN BAAZ:

http://millatibraheem.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/satanic-fatwa-of-bin-baz-and-some-remarks/
- they are so evil, Salah behind them is baatil

- When this was passed there was no hujjah given, he used his Aql (intellect)
No one will be left on earth to be trusted

- that is why many sisters are single
- there is no trust, even though the rasul (SAW) said there is no Deen without trust
Hamza Yusuf said those fighter fighters on September 11 died as Shaheeds

- all those chat rooms inviting to jahannam and some of you go there and claim you were curious
- this is the excuse of the munafiq, it is haraam to go to the chat rooms of the hypocrite
- Allah said it is haraam to sit where His Deen is ridiculed
- see 4:140
This ayah tells you it is haraam to go to these chat rooms

-because you are not allowed to sit with people that mock the Deen
-if you do so you will be like them
All the munafiqeen have Paltalk rooms

- inviting the Muslim youths to jahannam
- even the Goofy Soofis have rooms and they give their walaa to the crusaders
Soofism is a religion of its own, like Qadiyaani

- you are not allowed to call them Ahmedis, this is another name of Prophet Muhammad
- they came from Qaadiyan, a city they claim to be holier than Makkah
- these people believe that Ghulam Ahmad is another prophet after Muhammad (SAW)
Are you trustworthy?

- do you copy and paste your conversation with other people?
- I told someone not to talk to people when he/she comes here, this will avoid backbiting and slandering
- Do you make indecent proposals to your friend's wives? because some people do that
- Can we trust you with our money? Our families?
Allah entrusted us to establish Shariah, have we done this?
- see 33:72
Truly, We did offer Al¬Amanah (the trust or moral responsibility or honesty and all the duties
which Allah has ordained) to the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they declined to
bear it and were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of Allah's Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he was unjust
(to himself) and ignorant (of its results). (Al-Ahzab 33:72)
- You conspire against the Shariah instead!

- This Amanah was given to the mountains and they refused
- but man tried to do so, but failed miserably, not only did you refuse to implement it
- you conspire against it
- Claiming to dismantle it is a minor kufr
Say (O Muhammad SAW to the people of the Scripture): "Shall I inform you of something worse
than that, regarding the recompense from Allah: those (Jews) who incurred the Curse of Allah and
His Wrath, those of whom (some) He transformed into monkeys and swines, those who
worshipped Taghût (false deities); such are worse in rank (on the Day of Resurrection in the
Hell¬fire), and far more astray from the Right Path (in the life of this world)." (Al-Ma'idah 5:60)
- Allah turned the Jews into apes and swine, when they broke the Sabbath
- are you saying Allah was over reacting?
- These people are mad Madkhalis
Then you incite people against the Mujahideen

- instead of supporting them you pass dodgy fatwas against them
Amaanah is the greatest thing you can have on your CV

- prophet Yusuf was able to get the portfolio of Minister of finance of Egypt because he was trustworthy
- he gained this because he turned down Zulaika
- that if he could turn her down, then he could be trusted
Also the story of Moses and the Lady

-he lowered his gaze when he was going with her and the girl used Firasa to know he is trustworthy
So if you are in the presence of a woman she can tell if you are trustworthy or not
- can you imagine being with your wife and looking at every woman? She will ask for a divorce!
The story of rasul (SAW) was called the truthful the trustworthy, long before he became a prophet
- when he gathered Quraish and asked them,
- if he said an army has gathered behind the mountain, will they believe, they said they will believe him
-and then he invited them to Islam, as the people were contemplating
- Abu Lahab spoke against rasul, saying: is this why you have gathered us here
- and as a result the surah 111:1-4 was revealed
Perish the two hands of Abû Lahab (an uncle of the Prophet), and perish he! (Al-Masad 111:1)
His wealth and his children (etc.) will not benefit him! (Al-Masad 111:2)
He will be burnt in a Fire of blazing flames! (Al-Masad 111:3)
And his wife too, who carries wood (thorns of Sadan which she used to put on the way of the
Prophet (Peace be upon him) , or use to slander him). (Al-Masad 111:4)
In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad (palm fibre). (Al-Masad 111:5)

Why was he able to bring the whole of Arabian Peninsula under Islam in 23 years?
- the Kuffaar said he was the most successful leader, this is because he was trustworthy
The best thing on your CV is not how fast you can use Microsoft Word
- the best you can have is trustworthy
- they will make you a manager or at least an assistant manager
When Yusuf came out of prison he didn’t have experience for the job
- but he was given the job because he was trustworthy
Many people lose their jobs because everywhere they go, they steal
- and when asked why they steal, they claim the job is not paying them enough
- so they have to steal to make ends meet
5TH TRAIT: TO CONTROL YOUR TONGUE

Narrated By Sahl bin Sa'd: Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is
between his two jaw-bones and what is between his two legs (i.e. his tongue and his private
parts), I guarantee Paradise for him." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 76, Hadith #481]
- rasul said what will take you to hell most is bad habit of your tongue
- the real Muslim is the one the people are safe from his hand and tongue
Narrated By 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: The Prophet said, "A Muslim is the one who avoids harming
Muslims with his tongue and hands. And a Muhajir (emigrant) is the one who gives up (abandons)
all what Allah has forbidden." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 1, Book 2, Hadith #009]
THE TWELVE CRIMES OF THE TONGUE
1. BACKBITTING
- to speak bad about someone behind his back but what you said is true
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (SAW) as saying: Do you know what is backbiting? They
(the Companions) said: Allah and His Messenger know best. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet)
said: Backbiting implies your talking about your brother in a manner which he does not like. It was
said to him: What is your opinion about this that if I actually find (that failing) in my brother which
I made a mention of? He said: If (that failing) is actually found (in him) what you assert, you in fact
backbited him, and if that is not in him it is a slander. [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith #6265]
2. SLANDERING
- to speak bad about someone behind his back and what you said was a lie
- Slandering is worst than backbiting
- many of you backbite and slander
- Allah spoke about them in Surah 104
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter. (Al-Humuzah 104:1)
Who has gathered wealth and counted it, (Al-Humuzah 104:2)
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever! (Al-Humuzah 104:3)
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire. (Al-Humuzah 104:4)
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? (Al-Humuzah 104:5)
The fire of Allah, kindled, (Al-Humuzah 104:6)
Which leaps up over the hearts, (Al-Humuzah 104:7)
Verily, it shall be closed in on them, (Al-Humuzah 104:8)
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars, etc.). (Al-Humuzah
104:9)
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet (SAW), said, "Avoid the seven fatal sins." They said,
"Messenger of Allah, what are they?" He said, "Associating with Allah, sorcery, killing a soul
which Allah has forbidden, except by legal right, consuming usury, consuming the property of an
orphan, fleeing on the day of battle and slandering unthinking chaste believing women." [al-
Bukhari and Muslim]
- Quraish used to tell the people not to listen to a man

- they will meet in Makkah during hajj
- so Allah revealed the ayat
3. TO SPEAK KUFR
- the Christians do this by saying holy Mary mother of god

- the Shi’ites are also guilty of insulting Allah
SHIA HUJJAH: “Allah often lies and does mistakes” [Usool-al-Kafi, page 328, Yacoob Kulayni, Vol.
1]
- many Sunnis don’t know this, but that’s what they say, that’s a statement of kufr
- the MADkhalis also speak kufr by believing to dismantle the Shariah is minor kufr
- the Jews did this by saying Allah is poor but they are rich
Indeed, Allah has heard the statement of those (Jews) who say: "Truly, Allah is poor and we are
rich!" We shall record what they have said and their killing of the Prophets unjustly, and We shall
say: "Taste you the torment of the burning (Fire)." (Aali Imran 3:181)
- the Christians say Allah Begets a son

- Allah said, how can I when I don’t have a consort
He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. How can He have children when He has no wife?
He created all things and He is the All-Knower of everything. (Al-An'am 6:101)
- claiming Democracy is Islamic is another kufr
And by the Mercy of Allah, you dealt with them gently. And had you been severe and harsh-
hearted, they would have broken away from about you; so pass over (their faults), and ask
(Allah's) Forgiveness for them; and consult them in the affairs. Then when you have taken a
decision, put your trust in Allah, certainly, Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him). (Aali
Imran 3:159)
- so when Allah told us to establish Shurah are you saying He was asking us to establish democracy?
- the Ikhwanul Muslimeen (the Muslim brotherhood) in Egypt and Tunisia believe in this
- In the Shura we refer the matter to Quran and Sunnah when we differ
- but in democracy it is the majority
- claiming Allah is everywhere is another kufr
He it is Who created for you all that is on earth. Then He Istawā (rose over) towards the heaven
and made them seven heavens and He is the All-Knower of everything. (Al-Baqarah 2:29)
Abu Haneefah (rh) said, when asked of his opinion of the one who says, ‘I do not know whether
Allah is above the heavens or on the earth.’ - “He has disbelieved, because Allah says, “The Most
Merciful rose above the Throne,” and His Throne is above His seven heavens.’ He was then asked
, ‘what if he said that Allah is above His Throne but he does not know whether the Throne is in the
heavens or on the earth?’ He said, ‘He has disbelieved, because He has denied that He is above
the heavens, And whosoever denied that He is above the heavens has disbelieved.” (‘Sharh Usul
I'tiqaad Ahlus Sunnah’ of al-Laalikaaee (d.414AH), ‘al-Uluww’ of adh- Dhahabee, also ‘Sharh
Aqueedah at-Tahaawiyyah’ of ibn Abee al-Izz al-Hanafee)
-and they claim they follow Abu Haneefa, but Abu Haneefa made takfeer on people with such belief
-because it is kufr
4. SHIRK
- Shirk is another crime of the tongue to ascribe partners with Allah
Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is
no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -Allah). And if they
cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them.
(Al-Ma'idah 5:73)
- Allah called the people that believe in the trinity to be kuffaar

- they gathered at the counsel of Nicaea in 325 AD and delivered Christianity in a new package
- to describe Allah with human qualities is shirk
- to say Allah wrestled with prophet Yaqub is shirk
(Genesis 32:24-28) King James Version

24. And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
25. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and
the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
26. And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou
bless me.
27. And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28. And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou
power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
-and that He rested on the seventh day is also shirk
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh
day from all his work which he had made. (Genesis 2:2) King James Version
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his
work which God created and made. (Genesis 2:3) King James Version
5. TALE BEARING
- they carry news backwards and forwards for Muslims to fight
It is reported from Hudhaifa that news reached him (the Holy Prophet) that a certain man carried
tales. Upon this Hudhaifa remarked: I heard Allah's Messenger (SAW) saying: "The tale-bearer
shall not enter Paradise." [al-Bukhari (6056) and Muslim (189)]
- You can lie to make two Muslims love each other, this is the best tale bearing
...Ibn Shihab said he did not hear that exemption was granted in anything what the people speak
as lie but in three cases: in battle, for bringing reconciliation amongst persons and the narration
of the words of the husband to his wife, and the narration of the words of a wife to her husband (in
a twisted form in order to bring reconciliation between them). [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith
#6303]
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: The Prophet once passed by two graves, and those two persons (in the
graves) were being tortured. He said, "They are being tortured not for a great thing (to avoid). One
of them never saved himself from being soiled with his urine, while the other was going about
with calumnies (to make enmity between friends). He then took a green leaf of a date-palm tree
split it into two pieces and fixed one on each grave. The people said, "O Allah's Apostle! Why
have you done so?" He replied, "I hope that their punishment may be lessened till they (the leaf)
become dry." (Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2, Book 23, Hadith #443)
- so many people are divorced because of nammaam (tale bearing)

- The Sun newspaper is a wreck, only people who like gossip will read it
- most people like to listen to gossip, the majority of the people are scumbags
- descent people are few
- Allah said the majority of the people will always be evil
And if you obey most of those on earth, they will mislead you far away from Allah's Path. They
follow nothing but conjectures, and they do nothing but lie. (Al-An'am 6:116)
6. BLACKMAILING
- to let out a secret when you didn’t get what you want
- somebody put the naked body of another person in another person's picture
- they superimposed the pictures
- and the person was asked for a huge sum of money, in order not to post it
- this is blackmail, that is how evil people are
- or to put poison in food in the supermarket and ask them for money or you will inject poison in the food
- especially in baby food
- blackmailing is a crime
- Your tongue and private parts will cause you to go to hellfire most
- if you safeguard these two, you will be guaranteed paradise
Narrated By Sahl bin Sa'd: Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is
between his two jaw-bones and what is between his two legs (i.e. his tongue and his private
parts), I guarantee Paradise for him." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 76, Hadith #481]
7. RIDICULING (NAME CALLING, NICKNAME)
- it is called sneer, smear and jeer

- Allah told you not to do this
O you who believe! Let not a group scoff at another group, it may be that the latter are better than
the former; nor let (some) women scoff at other women, it may be that the latter are better than the
former, nor defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. How bad is it, to insult
one's brother after having Faith [i.e. to call your Muslim brother (a faithful believer) as: "O sinner",
or "O wicked", etc.]. And whosoever does not repent, then such are indeed Zalimûn (wrong-doers,
etc.). (Al-Hujurat 49:11)
When I was about 11 in Jamaica, a man got choked and everybody call him hotdog
- and when you oppose the name it sticks
- if you ignore it then it won’t
- it is not Islamic to call people names like that
You are not allowed to call people offensive names

- the rasul called Abu Huraira (father of kitten) but he did not mind
- and he also called Ali, Abu Turab (father of sand) because one time he was in the sand and got stained
- to call a fat person nicknames is not allowed
8. CHARACTER ASSASINATION
- this is when you spread rumours about somebody in the community that is not true
- the munafiqeen did this to Aisha
Verily! Those who brought forth the slander (against 'Aishah the wife of the Prophet SAW) are a
group among you. Consider it not a bad thing for you. Nay, it is good for you. Unto every man
among them will be paid that which he had earned of the sin, and as for him among them who had
the greater share therein, his will be a great torment. (An-Nur 24:11)
- Allah said it is good for you when they slander you because they will give you their pious deeds
- or take away your sins, so this is an investment
which Allah has forbidden, except by legal right, consuming usury, consuming the property of an
orphan, fleeing on the day of battle and slandering unthinking chaste believing women." [al-
Bukhari and Muslim]
- the person you assassinated his character, will take your good deeds
- Hassan Al Basri gave a basket of fruits to a man that used to slander his name
- this is because he was giving him his good deeds
- this is so prevalent in the community, they assassinate your character because they are jealous of you
9. APOSTASY (RIDDAH)
- if you say Muhammad (SAW) was a false prophet you become a kaafir, even if you were joking
- and if you doubt this person is a kaafir or you refuse to make takfeer on him
- you become a kaafir too, this is called CHAIN TAKFEER
10. ZANDAQA
- this is when you make up your own religion

- like when Luis Farrakhan said Elijah Pole is a prophet after Muhammad
-they also fast in December, this is all Zandaqa (heresy)
-and the person that practises it is called a Zindeeq (heretic)
-it is called HISLAM
11. INSULT
- to say to a person to get lost, to speak to a person in such a way you put him down
-and it is worst when done in front of people, proud people like to do this most
12. BLASPHEMY
- to speak ill of holy things i.e Allah, the Messenger or Qur'an

- when Harun Ar Rasheed was the caliph, some Christians insulted the prophet
- and the scholars asked him to give them 80 lashes
- but he consulted Imam Malik who got very upset and said their punishment is death
Ibn Taymiyya wrote a book 'THE DRAWN SWORD AGAINST PEOPLE WHO INSULT THE RASUL'
- it is a masterpiece and when you insult 3 things your head is gone
i. Allah
ii. His rasul
iii. Qur'an
- When you make tauba (repentance) it is between you and Allah

- even those that committed Zina and make tauba are killed
- The only time you are forgiven is if you run after making the blasphemy and then hand yourself in
- then the Qaadi can exercise leniency, but if we catch you before you hand over yourself in
- then the Qaadi can’t exercise leniency, these are the rulings
- another zandaqa is that a ship will come to carry all the black people to paradise
- this is the Aqeedah of the nation of Islam, they call the ship, “A mercy ship”
THE MERCY SHIP: http://www.adl.org/hate-patrol/njs/noi.asp
- they also say that the white man was created in a science lab by a mad scientist called Yaqub
MAD SCIENTIST YAKUB: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakub_(Nation_of_Islam)
- and Allah told you that you can’t create even a housefly
O mankind! A similitude has been coined, so listen to it (carefully): Verily! Those on whom you
call besides Allah, cannot create (even) a fly, even though they combine together for the purpose.
And if the fly snatched away a thing from them, they would have no power to release it from the
fly. So weak are (both) the seeker and the sought. (Al-Hajj 22:73)
6TH TRAIT: SINCERITY

- this is when you are true to your belief and your actions match your words
- you are not allowed to change to suit the crowd
- the Soofis say man can become Allah by making Zikr
- your stance has to be Qur'an and Sunnah
- don’t change your speech to suit the crowd, take a stance and stick to it
- don’t be a politician, we call it poli-tricks
- He keeps changing his tune
- when he is with the Jews he says Shalom, when with the gay, he supports them etc
- You are a daa’e (caller to Islam), not a politician, these people are munafiqs
- but you are a daa'e and your stance is Qur'an and Sunnah
- That is the haqq and what comes after it is dalal
- If you preach against adultery, gambling you can’t do these things
- see 2:44
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allah) on the
people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you recite the Scripture [the Taurat
(Torah)]! Have you then no sense? (Al-Baqarah 2:44)
- do you preach to enjoin good and do what is different yourself?

- also see 61:2-3
O you who believe! Why do you say that which you do not do? (As-Saff 61:2)
Most hateful it is with Allah that you say that which you do not do. (As-Saff 61:3)
- You preach against alcohol and drink it
- you have to be the walking Qur'an, for your dawah to be successful
- don’t let your enemies laugh at you, the hypocrites want you to slip, so that they will laugh at you
- this is because they are jealous of your Deen
- you are practising, but they are not, they wish they were practising
- but Allah did not give them the Tawfiq
- your protection against these is your sincerity
- Allah said the best provision is Taqwa and take it with you on a journey
-Whenever you are on a journey take provisions and taqwa is the best provision
- see 2:197
…And take a provision (with you) for the journey, but the best provision is At-Taqwa (piety,
righteousness, etc.). So fear Me, O men of understanding! (Al-Baqarah 2:197)

Bismillah…
7TH TRAIT: YOU ARE NOT UNGRATEFUL

- you are not allowed to be ungrateful
Verily, spendthrifts are brothers of the Shayatin (devils), and the Shaitan (DevilSatan) is ever
- the kuffaar use you and dump you

- they do not acknowledge Allah as their Lord
SHAIKH IN THE PLANE

- the plane hit an air pocket and it felt like the plane was going to crash
- the Christians who were there, on the plane all said: “Lord Jesus”
- if these were their last words, they’ll be in hell forever
- however the Muslims said subhanAllah
- the Christians gave their lordship to Jesus, this is ungratefulness
- Allah gave you life and you are ungrateful
- the Aqeedah of Shaytaan is better than the Christians
[Iblis (Satan)] said: "O my Lord! Give me then respite till the Day they (the dead) will be
resurrected." (Al-Hijr 15:36)
- even the Shaytaan acknowledges that Allah is his One and only Lord
- yet a Christians don’t know who is his Lord
- the Aqeedah of Iblis is better than that of the Christian
- on judgment day he will make a mockery at all those who followed him
And Shaitan (Satan) will say when the matter has been decided: "Verily, Allah promised you a
promise of truth. And I too promised you, but I betrayed you. I had no authority over you except
that I called you, so you responded to me. So blame me not, but blame yourselves. I cannot help
you, nor can you help me. I deny your former act in associating me (Satan) as a partner with Allah
(by obeying me in the life of the world). Verily, there is a painful torment for the Zalimûn
(polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.)." (Ibrahim 14:22)
- he will say the promise of Allah was true and mine was fake, why did you listen to me and not Allah?
- in order to be a proper Muslim you have to be grateful
- when the Rasool (SAW) was shown hellfire
- it was shown majority of women because they were ungrateful and the rich men
Narrated By Ibn 'Abbas: The Prophet said: "I was shown the Hell-fire and that the majority of its
dwellers were women who were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are
they ungrateful to Allah?) He replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful
for the favours and the good (charitable deeds) done to them. If you have always been good
(benevolent) to one of them and then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, 'I
have never received any good from you." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 1, Book 2, Hadith #028]
- it is not cool to be ungrateful

- don’t be ungrateful to your wife or husband or your Muslim brothers and sisters
By the (steeds) that run, with panting (breath), (Al-'Adiyat 100:1)
Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves), (Al-'Adiyat 100:2)
And scouring to the raid at dawn (Al-'Adiyat 100:3)
And raise the dust in clouds the while, (Al-'Adiyat 100:4)
Penetrating forthwith as one into the midst (of the foe); (Al-'Adiyat 100:5)
Verily! Man (disbeliever) is ungrateful to his Lord; (Al-'Adiyat 100:6)
And to that fact he bears witness (by his deeds); (Al-'Adiyat 100:7)
And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth. (Al-'Adiyat 100:8)
- Allah gave you everything you want, but did you thank him?
- NO you wrote a book instead claiming that God is nothing but a myth
- this is because Europe is mainly pagan and atheist, the book was a bestselling book
The God Delusion is a 2006 bestselling by Richard Dawkins:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_God_Delusion
- at least the American believes in God

- they say that the end justifies the means
- they want to get rich even if it means pimp their own mothers
- wealth gives you power and honour
- so you have to be grateful for that, you should:
1) Acknowledge the Baraqah with your Heart

2) Say Alhamdulillah with your Tongue
3) Utilise the Baraqah in the right way
- because on judgment day you will have to answer for the blessings you had
- food, drink and sex, all the pleasures of the flesh etc
Then, on that Day, you shall be asked about the delight[] (you indulged in, in this world)! (At-
Takathur 102:8)
Abu Huraira reported that Allah's Messenger (SAW) went out (of his house) one day or one night,
and there he found Abu Bakr and 'Umar also. He said: What has brought you out of your houses
at this hour? They said: Allah's Messenger, it is hunger. Thereupon he said: By Him in Whose
Hand is my life, what has brought you out has brought me out too; get up. They got up along with
him and (all of them) came to the house of an Ansari, but he was not at home. When his wife saw
him she said: Most welcome, and Allah's Messenger (SAW) said to her: Where is so and so? She
said: He has gone to get some fresh water for us. When the Ansari came and he saw Allah's
Messenger (SAW) and his two Companions, he said: Praise be to Allah, no one has more
honourable guests today than I (have). He then went out and brought them a bunch of ripe dates,
dry dates and fresh dates, and said: Eat some of them. He then took hold of his long knife (for
slaughtering a goat or a sheep). Allah's Messenger (SAW) said to him: Beware of killing a milch
animal. He slaughtered a sheep for them and after they had eaten of it and of the bunch and drank,
and when they had taken their fill and had been fully satisfied with the drink, Allah's Messenger
(SAW) said to Abu Bakr and Umar: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, you will certainly be
questioned about this bounty on the Day of judgment. Hunger brought you out of your house,
then you did not return until this bounty came to you. [Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Hadith #5055]
- you are not allowed to misappropriate the blessings of Allah

- man likes to go and brag
He says (boastfully): "I have wasted wealth in abundance!" (Al-Balad 90:6)
Thinks he that none sees him? (Al-Balad 90:7)
- he likes to brag about, how many women he slept with and how much money he gambled
- this is not something to brag about
- rather put your head down in shame, this is something you will account for on the day of judgment
- are you going to be like Saleh Fawzan?
- saying the greatest jihad is to kill the Mujahideen?

- do you know the reason why he panicked and gave this fatawa?
- the Mujahideen in Yemen are conquering town after town, so they are scared
- because there is a hadith about Yemen, where 12,000 men will rise
It has been narrated to us from Abdullah that Abi Thana Abd ar-Razaq narrated from al-Munther
bin Nu'man al-Aftas that he said: "I heard Wahb narrating that Ibn Abbas said, the Prophet (pbuh)
said: 'An army of twelve-thousand will come out of Aden-Abyan. They will give victory to Allah
and His messenger; they are the best between myself and them'."
“Out of Aden-Abyan will come 12,000, giving victory to the (religion of) Allah and His Messenger.
They are the best between me and them.” (Ahmad: 2918, 2079 and At-Tabrani in Al-Kabir: 11029
(11/56).
- if you are 12,000 strong with right Aqeedah, no one can defeat you
- that fatwa of Fawzaan is not feesabillilah (for the sake of Allah)
- but feesabilli paycheck (for the sake of the paycheck)
Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger said, “The best number of sahabah is four, the
best number of men in expedition is four hundred, the best number of men in armies is four
thousand, and twelve thousand will not be defeated because of poor numbers.” [Tirmidhi 1561,
Ahmed 2682, Abu Dawud 2611]
- that’s why Fawzaan quickly passed this fatwah, Fawzaan is a MADkhali and passed this dodgy fatwa
- because the Mujahideen said they are coming on the house of Saud next
- the kuffaar killing Anwar Al Awlaki wasn’t a benefit for the Taghoot
- because the brother in law of Awlaki is the leader of AQAP, so how did this benefit you?
- some Muslims worship personalities, once they hear a Sheikh they start to worship him
- Snake Nazim from Cyprus said he has the mobile/cell number of rasool (SAW)
SNAKE NAZIM PHONE CALLING THE PROPHET:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58gHWKE84FA
- he also said that he will be there when Munkaar and Nakeer question one in the grave
- just donate money to his dawaah
‘Another of the miracles of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the miracle in the grave. When the Angels
appear in the mureeds grave to question him, Moulana Sheikh Nazim will immediately be there
and say to the Angels “Don’t question my follower, question me instead of him and I will answer
on his behalf.“ The Angels shall not be able to bear the Light of Moulana Sheikh Nazim and due to
this they shall be forced to go away.’http://www.sheiknazim2.com/haqiqat.html
- if you are ungrateful to The Creator, how will you be grateful to the creation of Allah?
- the American gave the Mujahideen weapons
- and called them freedom fighters, when they were fighting the Soviet Union
- but now they call them terrorist

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du5CpAPxrsw
RONALD REAGAN MEETING SOME MUJAHIDEEN:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3f9mlUQzJA
- the kuffaar in Belmarsh told Sheikh, that nothing else is important other than money and sex
- they also said you need 60 faces in life, you can’t have one face, if you have one face you will not
survive
- so if you are a munafiq, you will survive in their stance
The Story of Isma’el’s Marriage

- when Ibrahim (AS) came to the door of Isma'el
- Isma'el asked his wife what his father said when he came to their door
- the wife of Isma'el said that Ibrahim said that he needs to change the threshold of his door
- that meant he had to divorce her
- then Ibrahim came again and then Isma'el’s new wife came and opened the door
- Ibrahim said for that the threshold should not to be changed, this meant the wife should be kept
…After Ishmael's mother had died, Abraham came after Ishmael's marriage in order to see his
family that he had left before, but he did not find Ishmael there. When he asked Ishmael's wife
about him, she replied, 'He has gone in search of our livelihood.' Then he asked her about their
way of living and their condition, and she replied, 'We are living in misery; we are living in
hardship and destitution,' complaining to him. He said, 'When your husband returns, convey my
salutation to him and tell him to change the threshold of the gate (of his house).' When Ishmael
came, he seemed to have felt something unusual, so he asked his wife, 'Has anyone visited you?'
She replied, 'Yes, an old man of so-and-so description came and asked me about you and I
informed him, and he asked about our state of living, and I told him that we were living in a
hardship and poverty.' On that Ishmael said, 'Did he advise you anything?' She replied, 'Yes, he
told me to convey his salutation to you and to tell you to change the threshold of your gate.'
Ishmael said, 'It was my father, and he has ordered me to divorce you. Go back to your family.' So,
Ishmael divorced her and married another woman from amongst them (i.e. Jurhum).
Then Abraham stayed away from them for a period as long as Allah wished and called on them
again but did not find Ishmael. So he came to Ishmael's wife and asked her about Ishmael. She
said, 'He has gone in search of our livelihood.' Abraham asked her, 'How are you getting on?'
asking her about their sustenance and living. She replied, 'We are prosperous and well-off (i.e. we
have everything in abundance).' Then she thanked Allah' Abraham said, 'What kind of food do you
eat?' She said. 'Meat.' He said, 'What do you drink?' She said, 'Water." He said, "O Allah! Bless
their meat and water." The Prophet added, "At that time they did not have grain, and if they had
grain, he would have also invoked Allah to bless it." The Prophet added, "If somebody has only
these two things as his sustenance, his health and disposition will be badly affected, unless he
lives in Mecca." The Prophet added," Then Abraham said Ishmael's wife, "When your husband
comes, give my regards to him and tell him that he should keep firm the threshold of his gate.'
When Ishmael came back, he asked his wife, 'Did anyone call on you?' She replied, 'Yes, a good-
looking old man came to me,' so she praised him and added. 'He asked about you, and I informed
him, and he asked about our livelihood and I told him that we were in a good condition.' Ishmael
asked her, 'Did he give you any piece of advice?' She said, 'Yes, he told me to give his regards to
you and ordered that you should keep firm the threshold of your gate.' On that Ishmael said, 'It
was my father, and you are the threshold (of the gate). He has ordered me to keep you with me.'…
- the reason why sheikh quoted this is because the first wife was ungrateful
- she didn’t even mention Allah, the second wife said Alhamdulillah
- the majority of the followers of dajjaal will be Jews and women

- a man will have to tie his wife and his daughters physically because they will want to follow the dajjaal
- some women do not want to make hijrah from this dajjaal society of America and Europe
- because all they care about is their bellies
- these women are like the wife of prophet Lut
O you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help you, and make your foothold
firm. (Muhammad 47:7)
8TH TRAIT: BEING HELPFUL

- if you help Allah, Allah will help you, helping Allah means, helping the cause of Allah
- you help the servants of Allah and its causes, if you help the servants of Allah, it is as if you helped Allah
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Verily, Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious, would say on the Day of Resurrection: O son of Adam, I was sick but you
did not visit Me. He would say: O my Lord; how could I visit Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the
worlds? Thereupon He would say: Didn't you know that such and such servant of Mine was sick
but you did not visit him and were you not aware of this that if you had visited him, you would
have found Me by him? O son of Adam, I asked food from you but you did not feed Me. He would
say: My Lord, how could I feed Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? He said: Didn't you
know that such and such servant of Mine asked food from you but you did not feed him, and were
you not aware that if you had fed him you would have found him by My side? (The Lord would
again say) O son of Adam, I asked drink from you but you did not provide Me. He would say: My
Lord, how could I provide Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Thereupon He would
say: Such and such of servant of Mine asked you for a drink but you did not provide him, and had
you provided him drink you would have found him near Me. [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith
#6232]
"...And Allah goes on helping the slave as long as the slave helps his brother." [Tirmidhi 1430,
Muslim 2699, Abu Dawud 4946, Ahmed 7431]
- in order for you to be a good Muslim and have a good character
- you have to be helpful to your Muslim brothers and sisters
Narrated by An-Nu'man bin Bashir: The Prophet (SAW) said: “The likeness of the believers in their
mutual love, mercy and compassion is that of one body; when one part of it suffers, the rest of the
body joins it in staying awake and suffering fever.” [al-Bukhaari (6011) and Muslim (2586)]
9TH TRAIT: BRAVERY

- you are not allowed to have wahn in your heart
- wahn is to have love for dunya and hatred for death
The Prophet (SAW) said: “All the people of the world will soon summon one another to attack you
as people gather around a table when invited to part take of its meal” Someone asked, ‘will that be
because of our small numbers at that time?’ He( the Prophet) replied: “No, you will be numerous
at that time but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent, and Allah will
take fear from the breast of your enemies and cast “wahn” into your hearts”. Someone asked
‘What is “wahn” O Messenger of Allah?’ He replied “Love for the world and dislike of death”.
(Sunnan Abu Dawud English trans. Vol. 3 pg.1196 No.4284)
- people who have wahn in their hearts, are the people who don’t do Jihaad
- and give conditions for not doing Jihaad, for example you need a caliph for Jihaad
- Sheikh Bin Baaz said in 1980’s that Jihaad was Fardul Ayn, there was no caliph then
- in 1980’s Bin Baaz passed the fatwa
SHAIKH BIN BAAZ FATWA IN SUPPORT OF JIHAD AGAINST SOVIETS:

http://studytrueislam.com/islam/history-current-affairs-of-islam/ibn-baazs-fatwa-in-support-of-the-war-

JIMMY CARTER CONDEMNED THE SOVIET INVASION:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2Y4t0-_9MY&feature=youtu.be&t=1m25s
- Sheikh’s question to these dodgy scholars is, that there was no caliph in 1980
- when someone has disease in their heart, they say we have a Covenant of Security
- the people who believe in Covenant of Security are munaafiqs
- the Covenant of Security was broken when they invaded Afghanistan and Iraq
BRITISH TROOPS RAPING AFGHAN CHILDREN:

- when they raped little kids in Afghanistan, are you a dinosaur that doesn’t study fiqhul waqi?
US MARINES URINATING ON MUJAHIDEEN:

http://news.sky.com/home/world-news/article/16147513
- look how careful the kaafir is with his words, they don’t say Muslims
- the kufaar are so clever with their words, they know the power of words
- it’s more deadly than an atomic bomb, like the words of Ibn Taymiyyah
- the FBI arrested a man after 9/11, they asked him who inspired him to be a Mujahideen
- the man replied, Ibn Taymiyyah, they are so stupid that, they put out an arrest warrant for Ibn
Taymiyyah
- even though he died a long time ago
- a spin doctor is a person who reports news
- they are careful with their words in case they cause a revolution
- a wicked scholar is a spin doctor, his job is to spin every ayah and hadith out of context
- they don’t give tafseer, but put a spin on it
- the rasool (SAW) said there is a fitnaa worse than the dajaal and that is the misguided scholars
Abu Dhar said, "I was with the Prophet (SAW) one day and I heard him saying: "There is
something I fear for my Ummah than the Dajjal." It was then that I became afraid, so I said: " Oh
Rasool Allah! Which thing is that?" He (SAW) said; "Misguided and astray scholars." Recorded in
Musnad Imam Ahmad (no.21,334 and no.21,335)
- no Jihaad without caliph, passing dodgy fatwas of Covenant of Security

- even when the kufaar rape their mothers, you believe in Covenant of Security, but the kufaar don’t
- Afghanistan has the most diamonds in the world, that’s why they can’t leave
AFGHANISTAN HAS DIAMONDS:

http://www.bgs.ac.uk/afghanminerals/preciousstone.htm
- you put another dodgy fatwa on Jihaad, that you have to be a scholar to do jihad
- when the kuffaar lied and said they are in Afghanistan to liberate the women, this is a lie
- they oppress women back home at France
'Burka martyr' faces two years in French jail after wearing veil:
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/884784-burka-martyr-faces-two-years-in-french-jail-after-wearing-veil
- they ban the niqqab in Belgium, the minaret in Switzerland

- they lie and lie and only donkeys with two feet will believe their lies
- they can’t con sheikh and if they can’t con you they will kill you
- why do they create sports, they want to create an unaware society
- if communism is in the grave, then capitalism will follow suit Insha’Allah
- why are you surprised that Socialism will be down the drain?
And say: "Truth (i.e. Islamic Monotheism or this Qur'an or Jihad against polytheists) has come
and Batil (falsehood, i.e. Satan or polytheism, etc.) has vanished. Surely! Batil is ever bound to
vanish." (Al-Isra 17:81)
- you have wahn in your heart that’s why you pass these dodgy fatwas about Jihaad
- at the battle of Hunain the Muslims were the majority
- people took their Shahadah and went to the battlefield
Truly Allah has given you victory on many battle fields, and on the Day of Hunain (battle) when
you rejoiced at your great number but it availed you naught and the earth, vast as it is, was
straitened for you, then you turned back in flight. (At-Tawbah 9:25)
- he the prophet (SAW) didn’t say to them, you have to learn and become a scholar then fight
- that’s why you should study Seerah, people have a dodgy Aqeedah because they don’t study Seerah
- that’s why they don’t know that in Makkah the prophet (SAW) called to Tawheed
- didn’t sheikh say you are NOT allowed to call for Shariah in darl harb
Three Muslim men convicted over gay hate leaflets:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/jan/20/three-Muslims-convicted-gay-hate-leaflets
- they will arrest you if you say kill the homosexuals, in Europe they protect the homosexuals a lot
- majority of the kaafirs in Europe are atheists, they don’t believe in God
- so give them Tawheed not Shariah
- when a baby is born you feed them breast milk not bread
- when they believe in Allah, then invite them to the laws of Allah, step by step
- to be brave is one ingredient to be a Muslim, don’t be a coward
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be
upon him) said: One who died but did not fight in the way of Allah nor did he express any desire
(or determination) for Jihad died the death of a hypocrite. [Sahih Muslim, Book 20, Hadith #4696]
- if you do not want to eradicate the isms and schisms of the Taghoot
- then that means you agree with them
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others
besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world[]].
But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they
do. (Al-Anfal 8:39)
- the fitna in the ayah refers to shirk, this ayah abrogates the verse in Surah Kaafiroon
"To you be your religion, and to me my religion (Islamic Monotheism)." (Al-Kafirun 109:6)
- the official verse of the sword is; Tawbah verse 5
Then when the Sacred Months (the Ist, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islamic calendar) have
passed, then kill the Mushrikûn (see V.2:105) wherever you find them, and capture them and
besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-
Salat (Iqamat-as- Salat), and give Zakat, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving,
Most Merciful. (At-Tawbah 9:5)
- you have become cowards and don’t want to do Jihaad

- well you don’t have to ask for it, they bring it to your doorsteps
- like they did, in Chechnya, Afghanistan and Iraq
- the Russians blew up a hotel and blamed it on Muslims, so that they can go in Chechnya
- to kill Muslims and steal their resources
- one of their agents Alexandra Litvinenko, wrote a book exposing them called Blowing up Russia
Blowing Up Russia by Alexander Litvinenko:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowing_Up_Russia:_Terror_from_Within
- they panicked that this man would expose them, Alexander took his Shahadah and was a Muslim
- he was killed by the Russians, they pensioned him in London
- he most probably didn’t know the hadith that says that you shouldn’t eat with the kuffaar
It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say,
“Do not keep company with anyone but a believer and do not let anyone eat your food but one
who is pious.” [Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2395; Abu Dawood, 4832. Abu ‘Eesa al-Tirmidhi said: this
hadeeth is hasan]
- now look at what happened to the man who ordered the killing
- the Russians don’t want him, this is the white revolution
- why is it that people are rebelling around him because you plot and Allah plans
And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Iesa (Jesus)], and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best
of the planners. (Aali Imran 3:54)
- you planted your own bombs to kills Muslims and now the people know that you are a human devil
- when a person knows that you need him, he become a Fitnaa for you
- that’s why women are Fitnaa for men
“I have not left behind me any fitnah (temptation) more harmful to men than women.” [Narrated by
al-Bukhaari, 5096; Muslim, 2740]
- Fitnaa = trial, tribulations

- if you do not want to do Jihaad, the kuffaar will bring it to your doorstep

- this should be the last segment of this topic:- The Muslim Character
RECAP:
- One of the ingredients for you to have
- a Muslim character is you should be brave, women like brave men, so they can be protected
- whenever a person has wahn in their hearts
- they always put dodgy conditions on Jihad to undermine Jihad e.g. no Jihad without a caliph
- you shouldn’t have love for the dunya and fear for death in your heart (wahn)
- we already exposed Fawzan yesterday, he has said the greatest Jihad is to kill the Mujahideen
In the year 1258 AD, the caliph Musta’sim was killed

- for three years the Muslims had no caliph, they declared Jihad and Ibn Taymiyyah was one of them
- so if the Muslims fought and defeated the Tartars
- so how can you say it is not permissible to do Jihad without a caliph?
- rafidites - are Shi’ites, you can’t take them as advisors, they give crazy advice
- a lot of knowledge was lost
Allah says
- this is proof that you can’t take people outside of your religion as advisors
- Al wala wal bara – to love and hate for the sake of Allah
- you need to carry the banner of Jihad unlike that wicked scholars
- do not pass fatawas like the greatest Jihad is to kill the Mujahideen
- do not use democracy to give victory to Islam, that is not the way forward
- it was tried in Algeria, Nigeria and Malaysia, but it didn’t work
Algeria Islamic Salvation Front Won Election :

MALAYSIA - ANWAR IBRAHIM :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_Ibrahim
NIGERIA - ABIOLA :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moshood_Kashimawo_Olawale_Abiola
- the way forward is Jihad fisabilillah and if you don’t the kuffar will bring it to your doorstep
- just like they did in Afghanistan, when people leave Jihad they become the lowest of the low
“If you deal in usury (riba) and hang onto the tails of cows, being satisfied with cultivation and
ceasing to take part in Jihad, Allah will inflict a humiliation upon you which will not be removed
until you return to your religion.” [Reported by Ahmad and Abu Dawud and graded as authentic
by Al-Qattan. Al-Hafiz states in Al-Bulugh that the chain of narrators is trustworthy and reliable]
10TH TRAIT: SHYNESS

- this is a branch if eeman, as stated in a hadith
It was narrated from ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allaah (SAW) passed by an
Ansaari man who was exhorting his brother to be modest. The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said:
“Let him be, for modesty is part of faith.” [al-Bukhaari (24) and Muslim (36)]
It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Faith has
over seventy branches or over sixty branches, the most excellent of which is the declaration that
there is no god but Allah, and the humblest of which is the, removal of what is injurious from the
path: and modesty is the branch of faith." [al-Bukhari (8) and Muslim (56)]
- men and men are not allowed to shower in front of each other
- there is no morals like the Islamic morals, shyness is a part of our culture
Narrated By Mu'awiyah ibn Haydah: I said: Apostle of Allah, from whom should we conceal our
private parts and to whom can we show? He replied: conceal your private parts except from your
wife and from whom your right hands possess (slave-girls)... [Abu Dawud 4006, Tirmidhi 2803,
Ahmed 20054]
-the prophet (SAW) was shy like a virgin
Abu Sa'id Khudri reported that Allah's Messenger (SAW) was more modest than the virgin behind
the curtain (or in the apartment), and when he disliked anything, we recognised that from his face.
[al-Bukhari (6102) and Muslim (5739)]
-if you feel no shame, do as you wish
Narrated By Abu Mas'ud: The Prophet said, 'One of the sayings of the early Prophets which the
people have got is: If you don't feel ashamed do whatever you like." (See Hadith No 690, 691, Vol
4) [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 73, Hadith #141]
- why don’t you take on a girlfriend, do drugs, go to casinos, if you feel no shame?
- a Muslim is supposed to feel ashamed of certain things
- for you to feel ashamed of evil deeds, it is a branch of eemaan
“…and modesty is the branch of faith." [al-Bukhari (8) and Muslim (56)]
- if you brag about your sins, of your haraam, you have no eemaan
- if you do haraam in secret and didn’t tell anybody, this is better for you
- but if you brag about it, you are inviting to it
- to be a sincere Muslim, you need be feel ashamed, you have to be shy
Narrated By Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Apostle saying. "All the sins of my followers will be
forgiven except those of the Mujahirin (those who commit a sin openly or disclose their sins to the
people). An example of such disclosure is that a person commits a sin at night and though Allah
screens it from the public, then he comes in the morning, and says, 'O so-and-so, I did such-and-
such (evil) deed yesterday,' though he spent his night screened by his Lord (none knowing about
his sin) and in the morning he removes Allah's screen from himself." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book
73, Hadith #095]
- so a Muslim doesn't do haraam and talk about it because a Muslim has a sense of shame
- but the kaafir brags about things
- such as the money they wasted in Las Vegas or how many prostitutes he slept with etc
- the kaafir likes to announce it to the people
- see 19:6
He says (boastfully): "I have wasted wealth in abundance!" (Al-Balad 90:6)
- many of you think "I did haraam, I am evil", this is how the Khawaarij think
- if you do haraam it doesn’t mean you are evil
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger having said: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if you were
not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you out of existence and He would replace (you by) those
people who would commit sin and seek forgiveness from Allah, and He would have pardoned
them. (Sahih Muslim, Book 037, Number 6622)
- Shaikh quoted this hadith in 2008 in northern Nigeria

- by your seeking Allah’s forgiveness, Allah is practicing His names and attributes
- if a Muslim should do a sin and it bothers him,
- it’s like a man who is sitting in a cave and he thinks it will fall on him
Narrated By 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud the Prophet (SAW) saying: "A believer sees his sins as if he
were sitting under a mountain which, he is afraid, may fall on him; whereas the wicked person
considers his sins as flies passing over his nose and he just drives them away like this." Abu
Shihab (the sub-narrator) moved his hand over his nose in illustration. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book
75, Hadith #320]
- if you are saying your sin is halaal, then you are evil and have now become a kaafir
- a woman should be shy and is not allowed to raise her voice
- a good woman doesn’t speak with a soft and dainty voice, she speaks with dignity and respect
- so that men with diseases in their hearts won’t molest her
- see 31:19 Allah says
He brings out the living from the dead, and brings out the dead from the living. And He revives the
earth after its death. And thus shall you be brought out (resurrected). (Ar-Rum 30:19)
- Allah created the voice of the donkey and despises the voice of the donkey
- A good woman speaks with a soft voice and not a loud, these women are seeking attention
- no woman is allowed to leave the house without Hijab and Jilbab
- Allah curses the one who wears a belt, you can wear it under the Jilbab (the belt)
- A woman isn’t allowed to dress in skimpy clothes
- your Jilbab can’t have elastic on your hips
- the Jilbab has to reach your ankle
- and your jilbab can’t be see-through
- it cannot be loud colors (i.e. pink, red etc), it should be dark
- these are not proper Jilbab colors (bright) red , pink , orange are not proper Jilbab colours
- the kuffaar knows that the Muslims are shy, so they like to strip them naked
- the story of prophet Ibrahim and Nimrod (dumped him in the fire, stripped him naked)
- we are the only civilized people in the world, everyone else is uncivilized
"What the Muslims see as good is good in the sight of Allah and what they see as bad is bad in
the sight of Allah." [Ahmad]
-if the kuffaar were civilized, why do they have a racist society? why do they urinate on the dead?
-you the Muslims are the only civilized people in the world
-see 3:110
You [true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW and his
Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'rûf
(i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism,
disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden), and you believe in Allah… (Aali Imran 3:110)
- if the kuffaar were civilized

- why did they allow men to marry their dogs in the USA, they allow sodomy in the army and bestiality
SENATE APPROVES BILL THAT LEGALIZES SODOMY AND BESTIALITY IN U.S. MILITARY:
http://www.kavkazcenter.com/eng/content/2011/12/09/15488.shtml
Certainly! Allah will admit those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) and do
righteous good deeds, to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), while those who disbelieve
enjoy themselves and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their abode. (Muhammad 47:12)
- these kufaar are far from being civilized, there lifestyle is so evil, even the Shaitan is shy about it!
- their lifestyle is satanic
'Aisha reported: Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "Should I not show modesty to one whom even
the Angels show modesty (Uthman)." [Sahih Muslim, Book 31, Hadith #5906]
- so you need to be shy
11TH TRAIT: AVOID ASKING INQUISITIVE QUESTIONS

On the authority of Abu Hurairah, who said: The Messenger of Allah said “A sign of one’s
excellence in his Islam, is ignoring what does not concern him.” [Tirmidhi 2318, Ibn e Majah 3976,
Ahmed 1737, Al-Muwatta 1604]
- the Muslim culture nowadays is very inquisitive

- in some cultures like the Arab, Asian culture, they watch, peep, gossip and slander
- the white woman won’t care less about what the people will say
- so the Asian woman will remain widowed because if she re-marries at age 50 years old
- people will gossip, she will remain single even if she has needs
- some people come on Paltalk and gossip, they don’t listen to the dars but will be gossiping
- whilst Shaikh was giving the lecture
- some Muslims will even ask what your salary is and even about the virginity of their wives
- some people are so inquisitive that some men are forced
- to show the white sheet with the blood to show them that she is a virgin
- the Rasul (saw) never did this, this is unislamic
- it is haraam to ask such questions that will harm you if the answer is given
O you who believe! Ask not about things which, if made plain to you, may cause you trouble. But
if you ask about them while the Qur'an is being revealed, they will be made plain to you. Allah has
forgiven that, and Allah is Oft¬Forgiving, Most Forbearing. (Al-Ma'idah 5:101)
- it is haram to expose the virginity of your wife, if you don’t find her to be a virgin
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (SAW) as saying: The servant (who conceals) the faults of
others in this world, Allah would conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection. [Sahih Muslim,
12TH TRAIT: YOU NEED SABR

- sabr means the thing is haraam and you love it, but yet still you stay away from it
Narrated by Abu Qatadah and Abu Ad-Dahma' who said: We came to a man from the people of the
desert and asked him: Did you hear a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah (SAW)? He said: I heard
him saying: "Whosoever leaves something for the sake of Allah, then Allah the Mighty and
Magnificent, will replace it with something better than it." [Musnad Ahmad, Vol. 5, pg.363, No.
23124]
- it also means the thing is fard but difficult, yet you still do it for the sake of Allah e.g. Jihad
- the story of Yusuf (AS) and his brothers is a very important story about sabr
- also the story of Ibrahim
- Yusuf was given Tamkeen in the land, see 2:153
O you who believe! Seek help in patience and As-Salat (the prayer). Truly! Allah is with As-Sabirin
(the patient ones, etc.). (Al-Baqarah 2:153)
- Allah is with the patient
And seek help in patience and As-Salat (the prayer) and truly it is extremely heavy and hard
except for Al-Khashi'ûn [i.e. the true believers in Allah - those who obey Allah with full
submission, fear much from His Punishment, and believe in His Promise (Paradise, etc.) and in
His Warnings (Hell, etc.)]. (Al-Baqarah 2:45)
By Al-'Asr (the time). (Al-'Asr 103:1)
Verily! Man is in loss, (Al-'Asr 103:2)
Except those who believe (in Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, and recommend
one another to the truth (i.e. order one another to perform all kinds of good deeds (Al-
Ma'rûf)which Allah has ordained, and abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds (Al-
Munkar)which Allah has forbidden), and recommend one another to patience (for the sufferings,
harms, and injuries which one may encounter in Allah's Cause during preaching His religion of
Islamic Monotheism or Jihad, etc.). (Al-'Asr 103:3)
- Imam Shaafi said the Surah Wal Asr would have been sufficient
- if it was the only Surah revealed for guidance
- people without sabr are yoyo Muslims, they keep on going backward and forward in Islam
- Allah spoke about them in 22:11
And among mankind is he who worships Allah as it were, upon the very edge (i.e. in doubt); if
good befalls him, he is content therewith; but if a trial befalls him, he turns back on his face (i.e.
reverts back to disbelief after embracing Islam). He loses both this world and the Hereafter. That is
the evident loss. (Al-Hajj 22:11)
- on the day of Judgment Allah will be giving and taking back the light in sirat
- just like how you treated the deen
13TH TRAIT: DO NOT BE PROUD

- pride is when you reject the truth and look down on others
It Is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud that the Apostle of Allah (SAW), observed: He
who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of pride shall not enter Paradise. A person
(amongst his hearers) said: Verily a person loves that his dress should be fine, and his shoes
should be fine. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: Verily, Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace. Pride
is disdaining the truth (out of self-conceit) and contempt for the people. [Sahih Muslim, Book 1,
Hadith #0164]
- wearing beautiful clothes is not pride

- Nimrad, the pharaoh, Abu Jahl and Abu Lahab rejected the truth because of pride
- the Jews are proud
And indeed, We gave Mûsa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of
Messengers. And We gave 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him
with Rûh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel)]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what
you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed. (Al-
Baqarah 2:87)
- the Jews knew that Muhammad (SAW) was a prophet, but they rejected him because he was an Arab
Those to whom We gave the Scripture (Jews and Christians) recognise him (Muhammad or the
Ka'bah at Makkah) as they recongise their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while
they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muhammad which are written in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel)]. (Al-Baqarah 2:146)
- they chose hellfire over accepting Islam because of pride

- if you have pride in your heart you are following Iblees
- you are allowed to be proud as a Muslim
And indeed, We gave Mûsa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of
Messengers. And We gave 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him
with Rûh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel)]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what
you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed. (Al-
Baqarah 2:87)
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "There are three people that Allah
will not speak to on the Day of Rising nor purify nor look at and they will have a painful
punishment: an old adulterer, a lying ruler and a poor person who is arrogant." [Sahih Muslim,
- if a prince is proud that can be understood, but how a poor man be proud?
14TH TRAIT: BE JEALOUS OVER YOUR WIFE, DAUGHTER

Narrated By Abu Huraira: The Prophet; said, “Indeed, Allah has Ghayrah, and the faithful believer
has Ghayrah, and the Ghayrah which Allah has is provoked when a believer commits that which
Allah has forbidden.” [al-Bukhari (4925) and Muslim (2761)]
Ibn Al-Qayyim, Rahimahullaah, said: “And the Dayyouth is the most vile of Allah’s creation, and
Jannah is forbidden for him, (because of his lack of Ghayrah - jealousy). The foundation of the
Religion is Ghayrah, and the one without Ghayrah is one without Religion, for Ghayrah protects
the heart and enlivens the limbs, and shields one from evil and lewdness, and lack of Ghayrah
kills the heart so that the limbs die, so that there remains not even shielding from [the minor
things]. And the example of Ghayrah in the heart is the example of the strength that shields one
from sickness and fights it off, so if the strength leaves, he will be faced with the sickness, and
will not find any thing to protect himself from it, so it will establish itself [within him] and destroy
him.” [Ad-Daa’ Wad-Dawaa’, p.77]
- do not permit your daughter to have a boyfriend, else you will not enter paradise
- you are only supposed to be jealous of your wife, but also all the females of your family
AI-Mughira b. Shu'ba (RA) reported that Sa'd b. 'Ubada (RA) said: If I were to see a man with my
wife, I would have struck him with the sword, and not with the flat part (side) of it. When Allah's
Messenger (PBUH) heard of that, he said: Are you surprised at Sa'd's jealousy of his honour? By
Allah, I am more jealous of my honour than he, and Allah is more jealous than I. Because of His
jealousy Allah has prohibited abomination, both open and secret And no person is more jealous
of his honour than Allah, and no persons, is more fond of accepting an excuse than Allah on
account of which He has sent messengers, announcers of glad tidings and warners; and no one is
more fond of praise than Allah on account of which Allah has promised Paradise. [Sahih Muslim,
- a Muslim woman is not allowed to flirt with men to test her husband's jealousy
- you are supposed to be dignified
15TH TRAIT: YOU HAVE TO BE JUST

- when you are called to judge, you need to be just
O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah and be just witnesses and let not the enmity and
hatred of others make you avoid justice. Be just: that is nearer to piety, and fear Allah. Verily,
Allah is Well¬Acquainted with what you do. (Al-Ma'idah 5:8)
- justice is the closest thing to Taqwa

- in some countries like Pakistan women are terrified to report a rape case
- because they'll either rape her again or accuse her of Zina, this is not Shariah
- many people demonstrate against the implementation of Shariah

- because they'll only implement it against the ethnic minority and women
- you need justice in order to have Shariah and only the one with Taqwa are just
- even some are oppressive to their kids, they force their daughters into marriage
- you can’t forcefully make a woman your wife
O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will… (An-Nisa 4:19)
It was narrated from 'Aishah: "A girl came to her and said: 'My father married me to his brother's
son so that he might raise his own status thereby, and I was unwilling.' She said: 'Sit here until the
Prophet (SAW) comes.' Then the Messenger of Allah (SAW) came, and I told him (what she had
said). He sent word to her father, calling him, and he left the matter up to her. She said: 'O
Messenger of Allah, I accept what my father did, but I wanted to know whether women have any
say in the matter."' [Sunan An-Nasai (Arabic/English), Vol 4, p.124-125, Hadith #3271]
- you are complaining about the rulers, but are you just at home?
- Allah made oppression, lies, breaking a promise etc haraam on Himself
...“Oh, my servants! I have made oppression haraam (forbidden) upon myself, and also between
you. So do not oppress each other...." [Sahih Muslim, Hadith #6246]
Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope (2:286)
- He also doesn’t order us to do more than we can bear

- many of you don’t give women money to go shopping, yet you expect three meals a day
- and if you do this you lose your conjugal rights, so you need to avoid Zhulm (oppression)
Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger said, "Three prayers are surely answered: the
supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveller, and the supplication of the father
for his son." [Abu Dawud 1536, Ibn Majah 3862, Ahmed 7513, Tirmidhi 3448]
Narrated By Ibn Abbas: The Prophet sent Mu'adh to Yemen and said, "Fear the supplication of the
oppressed, for there is no barrier between it and Allah." [al-Bukhari (1395) and Muslim (19)]
- many men in darul harb marry sisters, but don’t pay their dowry, that is another form of oppression
- people with no Taqwa always target the weak to oppress them
16TH TRAIT: AVOID ENVY

- to see your Muslim brother with Barakah and you want it disappear from him, this is a quality of Iblis
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Prophet (SAW) said: “Beware of envy! Indeed the envy eats
up good deeds like the fire eats up wood” (Abu Dawud 4903 and Ibn Majah 4210)
- he envied Adam (AS) and refused to bow down to him because Allah chose Adam to be Khalifah
-if you believe in Qadr you don’t have envy
- but when your eemaan and Taqwa is weak, then you become envious
- everything in this world is cursed, so how can you be envious?
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (SAW) said, “"The world, with all that it
contains, is accursed except for dhikr (the remembrance of Allah) that which pleases Allah; and
the religious scholars and seekers of knowledge.'' [Tirmidhi 2322 and Ibn e Majah 4112, (Abu Eesa
al-Tirmidhi said: this hadeeth is hasan ghareeb)]
Sahi Ibn Sa’d (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “If in Allah’s sight , the world had
so much worth as wing of mosquito then a infidel would never have drunk even a drop of water.”
[Tirmidhi 2320 and Ibn e Majah 4110]
- you allowed to be envious in two occasions only
"Do not wish to be like anyone, except in two cases: (1) A man whom Allah has given wealth and
he spends it righteously. (2) A man whom Allah has given wisdom (knowledge of the Qur'an and
the Hadith) and he acts according to it and teaches it to others." [al-Bukhari (7529) and Muslim
(815)]
17TH TRAIT: AVOID CARRYING GRUDGES

- the one who says the salam first is better because he has less pride in his heart
Narrated By Abu Aiyub Al-Ansari: Allah's Apostle said, "It is not lawful for a man to desert his
brother Muslim for more than three nights. (It is unlawful for them that) when they meet, one of
them turns his face away from the other, and the other turns his face from the former, and the
better of the two will be the one who greets the other first." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 73, Hadith
#100]
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA), who said that the Messenger of ALLAH (SAW) said: "The
gates of Paradise will be opened on Mondays and on Thursdays, and every servant [of ALLAH]
who associates nothing with ALLAH will be forgiven, except for the man who has a grudge
against his brother. [About them] it will be said: 'Delay these two until they are reconciled; delay
these two until they are reconciled.'" [Muslim (also by Malik and Abu Dawud)]
- giving and answering salam is sufficient
Narrated By Abu Khirash as-Sulami: Abu Khirash heard the Apostle of Allah (SAW) say: "If one
keeps apart from his brother for a year, it is like shedding his blood." [Abu Dawud, Book 36,
Hadith #4897]
- so you are not allowed to carry grudges, sort out your problems with your brothers
- this Hadith does not apply for munafiqs
- you can boycott them for 10 years, they are fake
- Allah ask us to be harsh with them
O Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Strive hard against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be
harsh against them, their abode is Hell, - and worst indeed is that destination. (At-Tawbah 9:73)
18TH TRAIT: BE GENTLE WITH WOMEN

Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, "The most perfect of believers in
belief is the best of them in character. The best of you are those who are the best to their women."
[Tirmidhi 1165, Abu Dawud 4682]
- you are not allowed to be a wife beater or call her names
O you who believe! Let not a group scoff at another group, it may be that the latter are better than
the former; nor let (some) women scoff at other women, it may be that the latter are better than the
former, nor defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. How bad is it, to insult
one's brother after having Faith [i.e. to call your Muslim brother (a faithful believer) as: "O sinner",
or "O wicked", etc.]. And whosoever does not repent, then such are indeed Zalimûn (wrong-doers,
etc.). (Al-Hujurat 49:11)
- sometimes verbal abuse is worse than physical abuse

- name calling is haraam
- to ridicule your Muslim brothers and sisters is also haraam
19TH TRAIT: YOU SHOULD BE HARD WORKING, AMBICIOUS AND

OPTIMISTIC
- do not be pessimists
- begging is not allowed in Islam, you have no flesh on your face on Day of Judgment if you beg
Hamza, son of 'Abdullah, reported on the authority of his father that the Apostle of Allah (SAW)
said: "When a man is always begging from people, he would meet Allah (in a state) that there
would be no flesh on his face." [Sahih Muslim, Book 5, Hadith #2263]
It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (RA) said: The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said: “For one of you
to chop wood and carry it on his back is better for him than asking (begging) from anyone who
will either give him something or refuse to give him anything.” [al-Bukhari (1968) and Muslim
(1042)]
20TH TRAIT: TAQWA
- Taqwa is to put between yourself and the wrath of Allah a barrier
- by doing what is fard and by abstaining from what is haraam
- see 2:197
And whatever good you do, (be sure) Allah knows it. And take a provision (with you) for the
journey, but the best provision is At-Taqwa (piety, righteousness, etc.). So fear Me, O men of
understanding! (Al-Baqarah 2:197)
- Jihad, hajj, marriage are all journeys, the best provision you need on these is Taqwa
O you who believe! If you obey and fear Allah, He will grant you Furqan a criterion [(to judge
between right and wrong), or (Makhraj, i.e. making a way for you to get out from every difficulty)],
and will expiate for you your sins, and forgive you, and Allah is the Owner of the Great Bounty.
(Al-Anfal 8:29)
- because when you have Taqwa you get the Furqaan (criterion)
- to judge between the good from the bad, the pure from the corrupt, the truth and the false
The life of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him) has been said by his wife,
Aisha (RA) to be like "a walking Qur’an", embodying the Laws of Almighty Allah (subhaana wa
taalah).
And verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) are on an exalted standard of character. (Al-Qalam 68:4)
- the beauty of Islam is not in the masjid, but in the character

WHAT`S YOUR AIM, WHAT`S YOUR OBJECTIVE? - NOTES & AUDIO
By Shaikh Abdullah Faisal Evening Dars: May 22, 2013
What's Your Aim, What's Your Objective

By Shaikh Abdullah El-Faisal
(Evening dars) May 23rd 2013

Notes by AT10 & AT8 / Edit: AT-10/Z
Oh you who believe in the six pillars:

- Allah, His Angels, Prophets and Messengers, His Books, Judgement Day, Qadrullah, the
Hereafter.
Oh You Who Believe in Al Walaa Wal Baraa
Oh You Who Believe in Sharia, Jihad and Khilafah?
Oh You who believe in fiqhul Waqi.
Oh you who practice kufr bit-taghoot.
What is your aim, what is your objective?
- Allah told us that mankind is diverse with his aims and objectives.
- If people are on the bus, train or tube, they will be going in many different directions.
Allah Said:
By the night as it envelops; (Al-Lail 92:1)

By the night when it covers (92:1) And [by] the day when it appears (92:2) And [by] He
who created the male and female, (92:3) Indeed, your efforts are diverse. (92:4)
- Allah swears by the night, when it becomes dark and Allah swears by the Day,
- when it brightens, that He created MAN and WOMEN and they have different aims and objectives
- Everyone in life has a goal;

- One of the questions Allah Asked you in the Quran is: Where are you going?
Then where are you going? (At-Takwir 81:26)
Some people’s aims are to become a millionaire.

- Some people's aim is to obtain a degree,
- they want letters beside their names.
- Some people’s aims are to chase beautiful women.
- Some people’s aims are to acquire the latest technology,
- Some people’s aims are to acquire a big house
- Some people’s aims are to become an 'Aalim (a scholar of Islam)
- Some of you want a scholarship, some of you want a battleship.
Some of you, your aim and objective is to become a warrior, a mujahid.

- That was the aim of Salahuddin, Tariq Bin Ziyad
- Abu Musab az-Zarqawi, Abu Yayha al-Libi
- They wanted to be remembered as mujahideen,
- They wanted to carry the banner of Islam
Allah Said:
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Verily, my Salah (prayer), my sacrifice, my living, and my dying
are for Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamīn (mankind, jinns and all that exists). (Al-An'am 6:162)
Do not entertain the idea that Islam disallows you wealth;

- Nor Islam is the religion that preaches you poverty.
- You’re not allowed to feel guilty about becoming a millionaire
And proclaim the Grace of your Lord (i.e. the Prophethood and all other Graces). (Ad-Duha
93:11)
- The first sahaba to enter paradise will be Abu Bakr al Siddiq, he wasn't poor.
- Uthman Ibn Affan is one of the 10 promised paradise;
- he wasn't poor (and Abdu Rahman ibn Auf)
Allah said:
But seek, with that (wealth) which Allah has bestowed on you, the home of the Hereafter,
and forget not your portion of legal enjoyment in this world, and do good as Allah has been
good to you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidûn (those
who commit great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupts). (Al-
Qasas 28:77)
Allah Said:
Those who eat Ribā (usury) will not stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except like the
standing of a person beaten by Shaitān (Satan) leading him to insanity. That is because they
say: "Trading is only like Ribā (usury)," whereas Allah has permitted trading and forbidden
Ribā (usury). So whosoever receives an admonition from his Lord and stops eating Ribā
(usury) shall not be punished for the past; his case is for Allah (to judge); but whoever
returns [to Ribā (usury)], such are the dwellers of the Fire - they will abide therein. (Al-
Baqarah 2:275)
Seek the Dunya but be kind to others and use the wealth wisely
- Don’t use your wealth to spread mischief in the land like the Kuffar do
- So Allah did not discourage you from becoming wealthy.
- Allah has blessed trading and cursed Riba
- However if you become wealthy and you stop paying attention to your deen.
- Because some people when they become wealthy think they have become independent of Allah
In order for us to know what our aims and objective are:

- we need to turn the pages of Islamic History
- This will help is learn how to treat the Dunya and figure out our aim and objective
Allah Said:
Indeed in the Messenger of Allah (Muhammad SAW) you have a good example to follow for
him who hopes in (the Meeting with) Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much. (Al-
Ahzab 33:21)
- The reason we need to turn the pages of History is because in the Messenger of Allah we have the best
example to follow
STORY No. 1 - The first example is the story of Khaibar.
- The Muslims suffered from the treachery and plotting of the Jews
- Three Jewish tribes were in Madinah, they all signed peace treaties with Muhammad;
- they broke them one by one.
- They were kicked out of Madinah and went to Khaibar to set up a Jewish Headquarters
- They used Khaibar to plot and plan against Muhammad;
- For seven years the Rasool suffered from the treachery of the Jews
- and they even tried to assassinate him
- The Rasool (saws) marched against Khaibar and as he gave the flag to Ali Ibn Abi Talib
- he told him to enter their fortresses and invite them to Islam
Narrated By Sahl: On the day (of the battle) of Khaibar the Prophet said, "Tomorrow I will
give the flag to somebody who will be given victory (by Allah) and who loves Allah and His
Apostle and is loved by Allah and His Apostle." So, the people wondered all that night as to
who would receive the flag and in the morning everyone hoped that he would be that
person.Allah's Apostle asked, "Where is 'Ali?" He was told that 'Ali was suffering from eye-
trouble, so he applied saliva to his eyes and invoked Allah to cure him. He at once got cured
as if he had no ailment. The Prophet gave him the flag. 'Ali said, "Should I fight them till they
become like us (i.e. Muslim)?" The Prophet said, "Go to them patiently and calmly till you
enter the land. Then, invite them to Islam, and inform them what is enjoined upon them, for,
by Allah, if Allah gives guidance to somebody through you, it is better for you than
possessing red camels." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 4, Book 52, Hadith #253]
- Even though for seven years they were plotting and planning against the prophet.
- He still wanted them to come to Islam.
It’s better for you to guide one man to Islam then to possess one hundred red camels
STORY No. 2 - Aisha was sitting with the Prophet (saws)
- She asked him: Is there a day in your life which was worse for you than the day of Uhud?
- She asked this first because she was there.
...(On that day) I saw 'Aisha, the daughter of Abu Bakr and Um Sulaim both lifting their
dresses up so that I was able to see the ornaments of their legs, and they were carrying the
water skins of their arms to pour the water into the mouths of the thirsty people and then go
back and fill them and come to pour the water into the mouths of the people again. (On that
day) Abu Talha's sword fell from his hand twice or thrice. [Sahih Bukhari (5/37) No. 3811]
- She asked: is it the day when Quraish put the rotten intestine of a sheep on your back when you went
to pray at the Kaaba?
- Is it the day when your beloved uncle Hamza was killed and they mutilated his body?
- Is it the day when you lost one of your teeth?
- Is it the Day when the body of your uncle Hamza was mutilated by the Kuffar?
- Is it the day of Ahzaab?
- Aisha kept asking the Messenger of Allah (saws) about different occasions in his life
- when Qureysh gathered 10,000 men to fight you?
- which day was the worst day of your life?
- The Prophet (saws) said to Aisha that none of these were the worst day
- He said: The worst day in my life was when Quraysh rejected my message in Makkah,
- And I went to Ta'if to invite them to Islam and they stoned me until my shoes were filled
with blood
Narrated By 'Aisha: That she asked the Prophet , 'Have you encountered a day harder than
the day of the battle) of Uhud?" The Prophet replied, "Your tribes have troubled me a lot,
and the worse trouble was the trouble on the day of 'Aqaba when I presented myself to Ibn
'Abd-Yalail bin 'Abd-Kulal and he did not respond to my demand. So I departed,
overwhelmed with excessive sorrow, and proceeded on, and could not relax till I found
myself at Qarnath-Tha-alib where I lifted my head towards the sky to see a cloud shading
me unexpectedly. I looked up and saw Gabriel in it. He called me saying, 'Allah has heard
your people's saying to you, and what they have replied back to you, Allah has sent the
Angel of the Mountains to you so that you may order him to do whatever you wish to these
people.' The Angel of the Mountains called and greeted me, and then said, "O Muhammad!
Order what you wish. If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them."
The Prophet said, "No but I hope that Allah will let them beget children who will worship
Allah Alone, and will worship None besides Him." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 4, Book 54, Hadith
454]
It is related that when Abu Talib died, the Prophet (SAW) went out on foot to Ta’if to call its
people to Islam. They rejected his call, and he walked away until he got to the shade of a
tree. So, he prayed two rak’at and said: “O Allah, I complain to You of my weakness and my
insignificance in the eyes of the people. You are the most Merciful. No matter who You have
put me at the mercy of – an enemy who will be stern with me, or a friend to look after my
affairs – as long as You are not Angry with me, then I don’t care. However, the relief You
bring would be more comfortable for me. I seek refuge with Your Face – for which the
darkness has lit up, and the affairs of this world and the next are organized – from being
afflicted with Your Wrath or deserving of Your Anger. You have the right to admonish as You
please, and there is no might nor power except by Allah.” [related by al-Haythami in ‘Majma’
az-Zawa’id’ (Vol.6, pg.37) No. 9851, and he mentioned in it that at-Tabarani related it in ‘al-
Mu’jam al-Kabir’ on the authority of ‘Abdullah bin Ja’far bin Abi Talib, and that its chain of
narration contains Ibn Ishaq, who is a trustworthy mudallis, with the rest of the narrators in
its chain being trustworthy.]
- And when I went to Taif to invite them to Islam and instead of embracing Islam they
stoned me until my shoes were filled with blood..
- And when the Rasool was stoned he made a DUA to ALLAH
"O Allah to you I complain my weakness" "and my lowness in front of these people" "you are
the Lord of the weak and oppressed (mustadafeed); will you put this matter in the hands of
my enemy? To a person who is far removed from me, who will hold me in contempt? or will
you put this matter in the hands of my enemy? Oh Allah if you are not angry with me, I do
not mind.
- When the Rasool (saws) made this Dua, Allah answered his Dua immediately
- The angel Gabriel descended with another angel.
- The angels asked the Messenger to order them to collapse the mountains on the people of
Taif
...The Angel of the Mountains called and greeted me, and then said, "O Muhammad! Order
what you wish. If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them." The
Prophet said, "No but I hope that Allah will let them beget children who will worship Allah
Alone, and will worship None besides Him." [al-Bukhari (3231) and Muslim (1795)]
Why didn't the Prophet (saws) accept the offer?

-The Prophet refused the offer and said "maybe Allah will make come out of their loins
- children who will worship Allah alone"
- Because the prophet was sent as a mercy for mankind.
Allah Said:
And We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) not but as a mercy for the 'Alamīn (mankind,
jinns and all that exists). (Al-Anbiya 21:107)
- Also the Messenger (saws) was a shield, who was shielding the people from the wrath of Allah and the
punishment of Allah
- So Allah wouldn't destroy the people while Muhammad was alive.
- Abu Jahl asked Allah to rain down stones on the people if what Muhammad brought is the truth.
And (remember) when they said: "O Allah! If this (the Qur’an) is indeed the truth (revealed)
from You, then rain down stones on us from the sky or bring on us a painful torment." (Al-
Anfal 8:32)
And Allah would not punish them while you (Muhammad SAW) are amongst them, nor will
He punish them while they seek (Allah’s) Forgiveness. (Al-Anfal 8:33)
Story No. 3 The story of the Jewish boy:
- This Jewish boy was on his death bed and when the Prophet heard he rushed to his death bed
- The Rasool (saws) rushed to his death bed to make the boy take the Shahadah
- The boy looked at his father, then the prophet, and kept looking back and forth.
- The boy's father said: - "Obey Abul Qasim"
- The boy took shahadah.
- The boy died a few minutes later as a Muslim
- This boy didn't make 1 rakah of salah, much less to fast, pay zakah, umrah, hajj, jihad...
Allah Said:
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islām, it will never be accepted of him, and in the
Hereafter he will be one of the losers. (Aali Imran 3:85)
Narrated By Anas: A young Jewish boy used to serve the Prophet and he became sick. So the
Prophet went to visit him. He sat near his head and asked him to embrace Islam. The boy
looked at his father, who was sitting there; the latter told him to obey Abu-l-Qasim and the
boy embraced Islam. The Prophet came out saying: "Praises be to Allah Who saved the boy
from the Hell-fire." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2, Book 23, Hadith #438]
The Prophet came out saying: "Praises be to Allah Who saved the boy from the Hell-fire."
- The Prophet (saws) was filled with such zeal and enthusiasm to give Shahadah to every Kafir before
they die.
Allah warned the prophet:
And most of mankind will not believe even if you desire it eagerly. (Yusuf 12:103)
- The Prophet (saws) aim and objective was to give Shahadah to every KAFIR
Those to whom We gave the Scripture (Jews and Christians) recognise him (Muhammad or
the Ka'bah at Makkah) as they recongise their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the
truth while they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muhammad which are written in the Taurāt
(Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)]. (Al-Baqarah 2:146)
This story is amazing, even though the father was a kaafir, he said "Obey Abul Qasim".
- Because the Jew knew the Prophet:
- This is because the Jews recognised Muhammad from their scriptures,
- Allah described Muhammad (saws) in their scriptures vividly without any discrepancies
- They refused to take shahada, because of pride.
- It is the madhab of Iblees: Pride!
- The Jews follow the Madhab of Iblis
Story No. 4 Umm Ammaara (did jihad when she was in her 60s)
Damrah bin Saeed from his father narrated that some woollen shawls were once brought to
Umar Ibn al-Khattab. Amongst them was a very large one of excellent quality. Some people
indicated that it was of great value and should be sent to Safiyya bint Ubayd who was
recently married to Umar's son Abdullah. However, Umar said, "I shall send it to someone
who is more deserving to it, namely Ummu Ammaara Nusayba bint Ka'b about whom I heard
the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say, 'Whether it was to the right or to the left, in whichever
direction I turned I saw her fighting in my defence."' [Maghazi al-Waqidi (1/271), al-
Tabaqaat al-Kubra Ibn Sa’d (8/415), Kanz al-Ummal (13/625-626) No. 37592]
- Did you know she saved the life of the Prophet at the Battle of UHUD
- But if we ask you about the players of xyz football team you can tell us.
- Most people did not know that Umm Ammara was 60 years old
- and fighting on the battle field with a sword
- She lost one of her arms at the battle of Yamaama
- Most of you do not know the story of the Sahabas
- Can you tell us the names of the 10 promised paradise?
- If not, your aim is dunya, dunya, dunya.
**This is because your aim and objective is not your Deen**

It was narrated from Anas ibn Malik (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) used to enter
upon Umm Haram bint Milhan and she would give him food. Umm Haram was married to
'Ubaidah ibn al-Samit. One day the Messenger of Allah (SAW) entered upon her, and she
provided him with food and started grooming his head. The Messenger of Allah (SAW) slept,
then he woke up smiling. Umm Haram asked, "What is making you smile, O Messenger of
Allah?" He said: "Some people of my Ummah were shown to me (in my dream) campaigning
for the sake of Allah, sailing in the middle of the sea like kings on thrones." Umm Haram
added, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them.'" So the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) prayed to Allah for her and then laid his head down (and slept).
Then he woke up smiling (again). (Umm Haram added): I said, "What is making you smile, O
Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Some people of my Ummah were shown to me (in my dream)
campaigning for the sake of Allah." He said the same as he had said before. I said, "O
Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them." He said: "You will be among the
first ones." Then Umm Haram sailed across the sea during the time of Mu'awiyah ibn Abi
Sufyan, and she fell down from her riding animal after coming ashore, and died. [al-Bukhari
(2877) and Muslim (1912)]
- Do you know about Umm Harram (Umm Amaara) who went for Jihad on a ship,
- and Muawiya established the Navy
- The Prophet (saws) woke up smiling, because his Ummah was going to take over the Seas
- Your aim and objective should be Islam, Not the dunya.
STORY 5 - Abdullah Ibn Umm Maktoom ( The blind Sahaba )

- The Prophet (saws) once was giving dawah and frowned and turned away from the blind man
Allah Said:
(The Prophet (Peace be upon him)) frowned and turned away, ('Abasa 80:1)
Because there came to him the blind man (i.e. 'Abdullāh bin Umm-Maktûm, who came to the
Prophet (Peace be upon him) while he was preaching to one or some of the Quraish chiefs).
('Abasa 80:2)
- JIHAD is the sixth pillar of Islam, but is not obligatory on the lame
No blame or sin is there upon the blind, nor is there blame or sin upon the lame, nor is there
blame or sin upon the sick (that they go not forth to war). And whosoever obeys Allah and
His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), He will admit him to Gardens beneath which rivers flow
(Paradise); and whosoever turns back, He will punish him with a painful torment. (Al-Fath
48:17)
You will think that a blind man would stay away from jihad, because Allah exempted him.
- However Abdullah Ibn Umm Maktoom: would go for JIHAD
- His understanding on the ayah is that Jihad is not fardh, but if he wants to go he can go.
- For example Jihad is not compulsory on a women but if she wants to go she can go
- Abdullah Ibn Umm Maktoom, carried the flag for the Muslims on the battlefield.
- He wanted to free up the Sahaba so they can kill the Kuffar
- The Muslims today worship their bellies and their private parts and put dodgy conditions on Jihad
- The hypocrites say: ‘No Jihad without a caliph’
STORY NO. 6 - AIN JALOOT - The Spring of Goliath - 1260 CE
- Have your heard about the Battle of Ain Jaloot ? Do you know when it took place ?
- The Tatars wrote a letter to the leader of Egypt,

- "we have turned your women into windows and your children into orphans"
- The Amir of Egypt who got the letter called a Shura meeting and killed the messengers who delivered it
- According to Shariah you are not allowed to kill ambassadors.
- The letter was so nasty the Amir felt he had no choice
They put in the letter that Egypt was the last country left for us to destroy.
- The Muslims did not surrender, instead they chopped off the heads of the Kuffar and rallied the masses
for Jihad
- They didn't stay in Egypt, they took the battle to the Tatars.
- The Battle field was Ain Jaloot in Palestine
- Ibn Taymiyyah, Qurtubi were alive at this time

- This battle was a decisive battle; The Muslims chose Ain Jaloot as the battle field,
- The Muslims hid the bulk of their army behind trees and displayed a small portion of their army
- It was the perfect place for an ambush, full of trees.
- The Tatars thought the Muslims were small in number,
- Then the Amir signalled the full force of the Muslims to come out and they demolished the Tartars
This was the first time in the history of the Tartars, that they lost a battle
- they got a taste of their own medicine.
- after this they embraced Islam.
USSR 1979 - when the USSR invaded Afghanistan

- There was no caliph in 1979
Bin Baaz passed a fatwa, saying Jihad was Fardhl Ain

- The Munafiqh now put a condition on Jihad that we need a Caliph first
- They believe in polygamy and they believe in zakah,
- Their aim and objective is not Jihad
- They say, what can Islam do for me?

- They live off the Deen, not ON the DEEN
- The munafiq never says, what can I do for ISLAM?
- Today they call the Mujahideen Khawarij and Terrorists

- They say greatest jihad is to kill the mujahideen
SHAIKH ABDUL MUHSIN AL-ABBAAD: "MUJAHIDEEN UPON THE WAY OF

SHAYTAN": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBXt-cQcyuo
SHAIKH FAWZAAN CLAIMS THE GREATEST JIHAD IS TO KILL

MUJAHIDEEN: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wwJPZTDJw8
- They are swimming in the sea of hypocrisy.
- Their Aim and Objective is not to LIBERATE THE MUSLIM LANDS, but to fill their bellies
STORY No. 7 - THE TABOOK EXPEDITION
- The Prophet (saws) made a public announcement that he was going to take on the
Romans.
- Shahabas joined all the way from Yemen because they wanted to fight the Romans
- People came to Madinah in multitudes, to join the prophet, it was a great honour for them
- When some of them arrived in Madinah,
- The Prophet said to them, "I have run out of horses and camels to take you to the front line".
- They went home, and cried, this was their sincerity.
Allah Revealed about them:
Nor (is there blame) on those who came to you to be provided with mounts, and when you
said: "I can find no mounts for you," they turned back, while their eyes overflowing with
tears of grief that they could not find anything to spend (for Jihad). (At-Tawbah 9:92)
- This is why they are called the unique Quranic generation

- The Noble companions were ever ready to honour themselves by fighting for Islam
One of the reasons why it was important to go to Jihad;

- If you kill a kaafir, he will take your place in the hell-fire.
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said:
"A Kaafir and one who killed him will never be together in the Fire." [Sahih Muslim (3/1505)
No. 1891 and Musnad Ahmad (2/397) No. 9152]
- Even a woman is allowed to go out for Jihad if the Amir gives her permission
- Jihad is very exciting, even women are fighting jihad now.
- The aim and objective of the sahabas was to spread Islam.
STORY NO. 8 – YUSUF (as)
Yusuf was given half the beauty of creation and was sexually harassed by Zulaikha
- He was given half the beauty of the creation, when Zulaikha saw he she couldn't control herself.
- When the news spread about their incident, she gathered her friends in her house
- She said: If you don't go to bed with us, we will dump you in prison,
- She had power because her husband was the finance minister.
- Yusuf (as)- his aim and objective was Dawah.. so He said: "O my Lord! Prison is more to my liking than
that to which they invite me.
- Zina would kill the Dawah, so Yusuf (a.s) chose Dawah instead and went to prison
He said: "O my Lord! Prison is more to my liking than that to which they invite me. Unless
You turn away their plot from me, I will feel inclined towards them and be one (of those who
commit sin and deserve blame or those who do deeds) of the ignorants." (Yusuf 12:33)
When Yusuf was in prison:

- Some prisoners had dreams, they asked Yusuf to interpret the dreams for them.
- They asked him, they knew he was a good man.
- Kuffaar can tell who is a real Muslim and who is a fake Muslim
- RAND said the Sufi are "natural allies of the West"
A 2007 report by the Rand Corp., a U.S. think tank, advised Western governments to "harness" Sufism,
saying its adherents were "natural allies of the West." Read more:
http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1912091,00.html#ixzz1mTAmJNmQ
Before Yusuf interpreted their dream, he said to them :
"O two companions of the prison! Are many different lords (gods) better or Allah, the One,
the Irresistible? (Yusuf 12:39)
"You do not worship besides Him but only names which you have named (forged), you and
your fathers, for which Allah has sent down no authority. The command (or the judgement)
is for none but Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him (i.e. His
Monotheism), that is the (true) straight religion, but most men know not. (Yusuf 12:40)
- He hesitated to interpret their dreams, first he gave them the dawah.

- He invited them to the four pillars of Tawheed.
- he used prison to spread Islam
- Islam is the biggest religion in USA prisons
Yusuf abstained from Zina because Zina will tarnish your image as a Daee
- No prophet committed Zina
STORY No. 9 – MUADH IBN JABL
The Rasool (saws) sent Muadh Ibn Jabl to Yemen.

- He was the Sahaba who had an Afro and white teeth
- He started to cry when the prophet sent him, because he realised he wouldn’t see the prophet again.
- When the Prophet (saws) saw him cry he said to him: "By Allah, I love you".
- Did Muadh say since you love me give me land, camels , sheep, goats ?? NO HE DID NOT
- Muadh made a dua, "Oh Allah, help me to remember You,
- and to be thankful to You, and to be perfect in my worship of You"
- To be ungrateful is a quality of Iblees.
- Why did he make this dua? - He realised this was a promise of Paradise;
- If the Prophet (saws) loves you, Allah (swt) loves you
- all the angels love you and all the people on earth love you.
- (So your mission in Yemen will be successful)
- (If the prophet hates you, Allah hates you, the angels hate you and the people will hate you.)
Everything in the Dunya is cursed except three things
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (SAW) said, “The world, with all that it
contains, is accursed except for dhikr (the remembrance of Allah) that which pleases Allah;
and the religious scholars and seekers of knowledge.'' [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/561) 2322 and
Sunan Ibn Majah (5/231) 4112, (Abu Eesa al-Tirmidhi said: this hadeeth is hasan ghareeb)]
His aim and objective was to spread Islam.

-Even though he was crying he did not hesitate to go to Yemen
-Even though he knew he would not see the Prophet again
The reason the Prophet said "I love you" was for him to realise that
-he was sending him because of his knowledge and taqwa.
STORY No. 10 - ABU BAKR AS SIDEEQ
- When Abu Bakr was Caliph, some people refused to pay Zakah
- Abu Bakr held Shura meeting, and said we have to kill them, they have left a pillar of Islam.
- Omar asked how he could fight them when they had taken the Shahadah
- Abu Bakr said he would fight them by himself.
- The shura then agreed to fight them.
- Omar said nothing happened that day expect Allah opened Abu Bakr heart to see the truth
Those who would not pay Zakah were denying that which is known by necessity.
- If you deny one pillar of eeman, you deny all of the pillars
- Some cows give a bucket of milk and then they kick it over.
- Some of you say the shahada and then nullify the shahadah
- by committing a major Kufr
STORY No. 11 - UMAR IBN AL KHATTAB
Umar found a woman who was boiling stones,

-he couldn’t believe that such poverty existed in the ummah,...
- Omar rushed to bring her provisions, and cooked the food for her
- when he was a caliph, he made sure everyone had food to eat before he slept
It was narrated that Aslam the freed slave of 'Umar (RA) said: "'Umar went out to Harrat
Waqim, and I went with him. When we were in Sarar, we saw a fire burning. He said, 'O'
Aslam, I see here some travelers who are being held up by the night and the cold; let's go.'
So we went running and when we came near to them, we saw a woman with children. There
was a pot set up over the fire, and her children were crying. 'Umar said, 'Peace be upon you,
O' people of the light (he did not want to say, O' people of the fire).' She said, 'And upon you
be peace.' He said, 'May I come closer?' She said, 'Come if you can do some good, otherwise
leave us alone.' He came closer and said, 'What is the matter with you?' She said, 'The night
and the cold held us up.' He said, 'What is the matter with these children; why are they
crying?' She said, 'They are hungry.' He said, 'What is in this pot?' She said, 'Water, to calm
them down until they go to sleep, and Allah will judge between us and 'Umar.' He said, 'May
Allah have mercy on you, how could 'Umar know about you?' She said, 'How come he is in
charge of our affairs, but he is not aware of our situation?' He turned to me and said, 'Let's
go.' So we set off running until we came to the room where wheat was stored. He took out a
sack of wheat and a little fat, and said, 'Hoist it up onto me.' I said, 'I will carry it for you.' He
said, 'Will you carry my burden for me on the Day of Resurrection, may you be bereft of your
mother?' So I hoisted it up onto him and he set out running and I ran with him. When he
reached her, he put those things down. He took out some of the wheat and said to her,
'Prepare it for me and I will cook it for you.' He started blowing beneath the pot and I saw
the smoke coming out through his beard. He cooked it for her, and brought it to her, and
said, 'Bring me something.' So she brought him a vessel and he poured it into it, then said,
'Feed them and I will spread it out (to cool down) for them.' He stayed until they had eaten
their fill, and he left the leftover food with her. He got up, and I got up with him, and she
started to say, 'May Allah reward you with good; you are more suited to be the caliph than
Ameer al-Mu'mineen.' He said, 'Say something good, and if you go to the Ameer al-
Mu'mineen, you will find me there insha'Allah - Allah willing." Then he walked some distance
away from her, then turned to face them again and waited a while. I said to him, 'Is there
anything else?' but he did not answer me, until I saw the boys wrestling then falling asleep,
having calmed down. Then he stood up and said, 'Praise be to Allah, the Exalted, the
Almighty.' Then he turned to me and said, 'O' Aslam, hunger kept them awake and made
them cry; I did not want to leave until I saw what I saw.'"[Related by Ibn Atheer in al-Kamil

- the Aim and Objective of Umar (r.a) was to spread Islam
- The Aim and Objectives of the companions of the prophet was always Islam.
STORY 12 - AHMAD IBN HANBAL (born 164 AH – died 241 AH @ age 77)
During his era there was a fitnah:

- The Mutazila (Ma’moon) who believed the Quran was created
- The great scholars were being flogged by the caliph Ma'moon.
- He would do this because he believed the Quran was created
- The Scholars use this evidence to say that your aqeedah influences your shariah.
- You can’t separate the aqeedah from the Shariah.
**Your Aqeeda influences your Sharia**
- When all the other scholars who were afraid of being beaten publicly caved in:
- Ahmad Ibn Hanbal stood up against Ma'moon and did not cave in
- All the four Imams said that the one who believes the Quran is created is a kaafir.
From Alee bin al-Hasan al-Kuraa'ee who said: Abu Yusuf said: I debated Abu Hanifah for six
months, and then our view became united that the one who said the Qur'an is created is a
kaafir. [Adh-Dhahabee brings with a good (jayyid) chain of narration, as occurs in Mukhtasar
al-Uluww (p. 155)]
Ahmad Ibn Hanbal defended the Aqeeda of the Shahabas

- He was titled the Imam of Ahlul Sunnah wal Jamaah.
- He said: If the scholars keep quiet about the haqq how will the haqq come to the surface?
- His aim and objective was to spread Islam.
Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said: "When some people asked Imaam Ahmad bin Hanbal
that they felt uneasy about criticizing people, he replied:
"If I were to remain silent, how would the ignorant masses know the truth from falsehood?"
Those who introduce heretical writings which oppose the Qur'aan and the Sunnah and those
who innovate in matters of worship, then it is obligatory that they be exposed and that the
Muslims be warned against them - by unanimous agreement of the Muslims Scholars. In
fact, when Imaam Ahmad bin Hanbal was asked about a person who fasted, preyed and
secluded himself in the mosque for worship; if he was dearer to him than a person who
spoke out against ahlul-bid'ah (the innovators), he replied:
"When he fasts and prays and secludes himself, then he does so for the benefit of his own
self. However, when he speaks out against the innovators, he does so for the benefit of the
Muslims in general, and this is more virtuous." So it is clear that openly opposing the
innovators is of general benefit to the Muslims and is considered one of the types of jihad in
the path of Allaah. Since purifying the religion of Allaah and defending it from their attacks is
a collective obligation - as is agreed upon by the Scholars. For Allaah did not raise up some
people to oppose the innovators, then the religion would suffer harm, corruption and
deviation. Indeed, this type of corruption is even greater then the corruption resulting from
the disbelievers conquering the Muslims. Since when the disbelievers conquer the Muslims,
they do not corrupt their hearts, nor their religion, except after some time. Whereas the
innovators corrupt the hearts from the very beginning." [Majmoo'ul-Fataawaa (28/231-
232)]

Edited and formatted by AT38
This topic will give you an understanding of the characteristics of the Ummah
Some people (Muslims) have an identity crisis
And we don’t want you to have an identity crisis
They don’t know if they are black first and Muslim second
Indian first and Muslim second etc
Or are they Muslim first
Some people promote Black Nationalism

Some hang on to their culture, not Quran and Sunnah
I feel sorry for them because they are confused.com
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) doesn't want you to have an identity crisis
So Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) told you who you are in 22:78:
…It is He (Allah) Who has named you Muslims both before and in this (the Qur'an), that the
Messenger (Muhammad SAW) may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over
mankind!... (Al-Hajj 22:78)
Today people call themselves dodgy names like

Salafi, Tablighi, brelvis, soofis, etc and these are nowhere in the Quran
These names are bid'ah
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) has called you Muslim

So call yourself Muslims
To call yourself a member of ahlu Sunnah wal jama’a is ok
It means you stick to the juma'a because the word jama’a is not bid’ah
The rasul (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) spoke about it
HADITH 28
‫اﻟﺤﺪﻳﺚ اﻟﺜﺎﻣﻦ واﻟﻌﺸﺮون‬
‫ وﻋﻈﻨﺎ رﺳﻮل ﷲ ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﻪ‬:‫» ﻋﻦ أﺑﻲ ﻧﺠﯿﺢ اﻟﻌﺮﺑﺎض ﺑﻦ ﺳﺎرﻳﺔ رﺿﻲ ﷲ ﺗﻌﺎﻟﻰ ﻋﻨﻪ ﻗﺎل‬

On the authority of Abu Najeeh al-’Irbaad ibn Saariyah (RA) who said: The Messenger of
Allah (SAW) gave us a sermon by which our hearts were filled with fear and tears came to
our eyes. So we said, "O Messenger of Allah! It is as though this is a farewell sermon, so
counsel us." He (SAW) said, "I counsel you to have taqwa (fear) of Allah, and to listen and
obey [your leader], even if a slave were to become your ameer. Verily he among you who
lives long will see great controversy, so you must keep to my Sunnah and to the Sunnah of
the Khulafa ar-Rashideen (the rightly guided caliphs), those who guide to the right way.
Cling to it stubbornly [literally: with your molar teeth]. Beware of newly invented matters [in
the religion], for verily every bidah (innovation) is misguidance." It was related by Abu
Dawud and at-Tirmidhi, who said that it was a good and sound hadith.
So if you travel to a country, the first question you ask is

Where is the masjid that preaches the haqq.
Because you are not allowed to pray behind people like the Brelvis
If you are the only one in the country on haqq, then you are a jama’a
One man can be the jama'ah in a country
THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THIS UMMAH
1. YOU ARE THE WITNESSES OF ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) ON EARTH
One day, the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) was in Madina with his sahabah
A funeral procession passed by and they commented
He commented on what they said as stated in following hadith
Anas Ibn Malik narrated, "A funeral procession passed by and they were praising the dead
man. The Prophet (SAW), said, 'It is mandatory.' Then another passed and they were
speaking ill of the dead man. He said, 'It is mandatory.' 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'What is
mandatory?' He said, 'You praised this one, and so the Garden is mandatory for him and you
spoke evil of this one, so the Fire is mandatory for him. You are the witnesses of Allah on the
earth.’" [al-Bukhari (1367) and Muslim (949)]
You will also testify against the previous people in the hereafter
The people of Nuh (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) worshipped idols
They were the first to worship idols
They will say no one told them about tawheed
Ibn 'Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhu) said: "Between Noah (Noah) and Adam were ten generations,
all of them were upon Sharee'ah (law) of the truth, and then they differed. So Allah sent
prophets as bringers of good news and as warners." [Related by Ibn Jareer at-Tabaree in his
tafseer (4/275) No. 4048 and al-Haakim (2/596) No. 4009 who said: "It is authentic
according to the criterion of al-Bukhari." Adh-Dhahabe also agreed]
Nuh (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) spent 950 years speaking about tawheed
But they will deny that he called them to tauheed all those years
Ibn Mas'ud (radiyallahu ‘anhu) said, "Whatever the Muslims see as good is good with Allah,
Whatever the Muslims see as bad, Allah sees as bad." [Mustadrak al-Haakim (3/83) No.
4465, classed as Sahih by Adh-Dhahabee]
This is an athar (the sayings of the sahabah (radiyallahu ‘anhum))

Hadith is the sayings of the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam)
Israelliyyah are the sayings of the Jews
Don’t reject the Israelliyyah, say Allahu Alim
2. YOU ARE THE BEST UMMAH
You are better than the Ummah of Abraham, Musa, Isa, Nuh etc (‘alayhim salatu wa salam)
You [true believers in Islāmic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW
and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you
enjoin Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islāmic Monotheism and all that Islām has ordained) and forbid Al-
Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islām has forbidden), and you believe in Allāh.
(Aali Imran 3:110)
You are the best because of three reasons:

1. You believe in Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
2. You enjoin the good
3. You forbid the evil
The Muslims are the only people that believe in Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) properly
We describe Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) with His 99 Names and Attributes
Because the Jews and Christians give Him attributes that do not befit Him
A Jew said Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is poor, Abu Bakr (radiyallahu ‘anhu) punched him
in the face
(Verily Allah heard the saying of those who said…) [3:181]. ‘Ikrimah, al-Suddi and Muqatil
ibn Ishaq related that, one day, Abu Bakr al-Siddiq entered a Jewish place of study and
found a group of Jewish people gathered around one of them called Finhas ibn ‘Azura, who
was one of their doctors. Abu Bakr said to Finhas: “Fear Allah and embrace Islam, for by
Allah you know well that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah who has brought the truth to
you from Allah. He is mentioned in your Torah; so believe and accept the truth and grant
Allah a goodly offering and He will make you enter the Garden and multiply your reward”.
Finhas responded: “O Abu Bakr, you claim that our Lord is asking us to lend Him our wealth.
Yet, it is only the poor who borrow from the rich. And if what you say is true, it follows that
Allah is poor and we are rich, for if He were rich He would not ask us to lend Him our
wealth”. Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, may Allah be well pleased with him, became very angry and
struck the face of Finhas with a mighty blow. He then said to him: “By Him in whose Hand is
my soul, if it were not for the treaty between us, O enemy of Allah, I would have killed you”.
Finhas went to the Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give him peace, and said: “O
Muhammad! Look at what your companion has done to me”. The Messenger of Allah, Allah
bless him and give him peace, asked Abu Bakr: “What has driven you to do what you have
done?” He said: “O Messenger of Allah, this enemy of Allah has said something very serious.
He claimed that Allah is poor and they are rich. I therefore got angry for the sake of Allah
and hit his face”. But Finhas denied that he ever uttered those words, and so Allah, exalted is
He, revealed this verse (Verily Allah heard the saying of those who said…) to give the lie to
Finhas and to confirm that Abu Bakr al-Siddiq said the truth. ‘Abd al-Qahir ibn Tahir informed
us> Abu ‘Amr ibn Matar> Ja‘far ibn al-Layth al-Ziyadi> Hudhayfah Musa ibn Mas‘ud> Shibl>
Ibn Abi Najih> Mujahid who said: “This verse was revealed about the Jews; Abu Bakr, may
Allah be well pleased with him, had struck the face of one of their men who said ‘Allah is
poor and we are rich’ ”. Shibl commented: “I was informed that this man was Finhas the
Jew, and it is also this man who said: (Allah’s hand is fettered) [5:64]”. [Asbab Al-Nuzul by
Al-Wahidi , trans. Mokrane Guezzou]
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) then revealed the following ayah:
Indeed, Allāh has heard the statement of those (Jews) who say: "Truly, Allāh is poor and we
are rich!" We shall record what they have said and their killing of the Prophets unjustly, and
We shall say: "Taste you the torment of the burning (Fire)." (Aali Imran 3:181)
The Jews also claim that Allah’s (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) Hands are tied
The Jews say: "Allāh's Hand is tied up (i.e. He does not give and spend of His Bounty)." Be
their hands tied up and be they accursed for what they uttered. Nay, both His Hands are
widely outstretched. He spends (of His Bounty) as He wills. Verily, the Revelation that has
come to you from Allāh increases in most of them their obstinate rebellion and disbelief. We
have put enmity and hatred amongst them till the Day of Resurrection. Every time they
kindled the fire of war, Allāh extinguished it; and they (ever) strive to make mischief on
earth. And Allāh does not like the Mufsidûn (mischiefmakers). (Al-Ma'idah 5:64)
The Christians say Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) begot a son
They (Jews, Christians and pagans) say: "Allāh has begotten a son (children)." Glory be to
Him! He is Rich (Free of all wants). His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth.
No warrant you have for this. Do you say against Allāh what you know not. (Yunus 10:68)
They speak a lot of other rubbish about Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)

You have tauheed asmaa wa sifaat which teaches you His Names and Attributes
But they don’t have this hence, they make these claims
The Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said to enjoin the right and forbid the wrong
Or you will be like the people in the boat as stated below
Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said, “The metaphor of a person who complies with
Allah’s orders and prohibitions in comparison to those who violate them is like the metaphor
of some people who drew lots for their seats in a boat. Some of them were given seats on
the upper deck, and the others on the lower deck. When those on the lower deck needed
water, they would have had to go up to fetch the water, so they said, ‘Let us make a hole in
our part of the ship and save those who are above us from our troubling them.’ If the people
on the upper deck let the others do what they suggested, all the people in the boat would be
destroyed, but if they prevented them, both groups would be safe." Al-Bukhari, 5 / 132; At-
Tirmidhi, 9/19.
The prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) used this example,

Because he was the greatest teacher to walk earth
3. YOU ARE A BALANCED NATION
Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islāmic Monotheism, true followers
of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation,
that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a witness over
you.. (Al-Baqarah 2:143)
Because you are a balanced nation, you are not an extremist in anything
Therefore, you are in the middle between the Jews and the Christians
The Jews reject Jesus (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) and call him a bastard child
And they say Maryam (‘alayha salam) was a harlot
They also say Jesus (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) was a fake prophet
The Christians say that Jesus (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) was God in flesh
That God manifested Himself in the form Jesus (‘alayhi salatu wa salam)
They worship Jesus as a second God besides Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
A Christian is a pagan because they worship 3 Gods - The father, son and Holy Ghost
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said:
Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allāh is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] (Al-Ma'idah
5:72)
We believe he was a prophet and a servant of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
You are in the middle between the khawaarij and the murji'a
The Khawaarij (puritan) takes away your hope
If you should commit a major sin (drink alcohol or zina)
He makes takfir on you and takes away your hope
He has no mercy
Even though Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) told you not to give up hope
He will forgive EVERY sin even SHIRK as long as
You make taubah before you die
Say: "O 'Ibādī (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil
deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allāh, verily Allāh forgives all sins. Truly, He is
Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Az-Zumar 39:53)
The only time you can make takfir on a Muslim is if the sin he committed was major kufr
Like spying for the infidels, insult the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam)
Or the Quran which is apostasy
However, if a person should die a mushrik he cannot be forgiven on judgement day
Verily, Allāh forgives not that partners should be set up with him in worship, but He forgives
except that (anything else) to whom He pleases, and whoever sets up partners with Allāh in
worship, he has indeed invented a tremendous sin. (An-Nisa 4:48)
This ayah means if you die committing shirk, there is no hope for you.
However, if you make tawbah before you die you can be forgiven
The murji is a happy go lucky Muslim - liberal
But the khawarij is a puritan
He takes away your hope
While the murji gives you all the hope you can think of
One is too unforgiven, and the other is too forgiven
We are in the middle between these two groups

As for the sinner, we say because his sin is not major kufr, you are a Muslim in the dunya
And in the hereafter, you are under the will of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
If Allah wishes, He can put you in the hellfire as long as He wishes
Or forgive you and send you straight to Paradise
Because Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) sends to Paradise who He wants

And He sends to Hell who He wants and no one can veto Allah
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is Maliki Yawmidden (The Master of Judgement Day)
You are between the spiritualist and the materialist
The spiritualist spends all his time in the masjid, reading Quran, fasting, praying
But will never work to feed his wife and children
He comes to the Masjid on a Friday and begs
If you ask him to work, he says he will never work for the kuffaar
When Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was a caliph

He saw a man in the masjid for all salah
He asked him who feeds his family and the man said his brother
Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) told him to go get a job
In some hadith Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) kicked the man with his foot
It is unislamic for you to be a dead-beat

No money, no job, no profession and no ambition
If you are a dead-beat you should go to the frontline
Abdourahman Ibn Awf (radiyallahu ‘anhu) wasn’t a deadbeat

Hence he turned down the offer of Sa’d (radiyallahu ‘anhu)
Anas (RA) narrated: When Abdul Rahman ibn Awf (RA) came to Madinah, Allah’s Messenger
(SAW) established fraternal ties between him and Sa’d ibn Rabi.’ He said to him, “Come, I
will apportion to you my wealth, half of it. And, I have two wives, so I will divorce one of
them and when she completes her waiting period, you may marry her. But, he said, ‘May
Allah bless you in your family and your wealth. Guide me to the market.” So, he led him to
the market... [Bukhari 2048, Tirmidhi 1940]
Why did he say "show me to the marketplace"? Because he wasn't a dead-beat

They expect 3 meals a day and don't give the women a penny to go shopping
They propose to the prettiest girls and they play the race card
When they are rejected
As for the spiritualist, didn't Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) tell you to have fun?
But seek, with that (wealth) which Allāh has bestowed on you, the home of the Hereafter,
and forget not your portion of legal enjoyment in this world (Al-Qasas 28:77)
So for you to be in the masjid every day is unIslamic because Allah says to have fun.
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) doesn't want you to be boring
Many of you are very boring like the Buddhist and catholic monks
Even though they have fun in secret
If the spiritualist has lost the middle path by spending all his time in the masjid
The materialist lost it by spending all his time at work
He also lost the middle path
He spends all his time making money until he misses 50+ jummuah
Because of loving the dunya so much
He will prefer to take Thursday off and work on Fridays
Because he ‘makes more money’ on Fridays
Abu Al-Ja’d Ad-Damri – who was one of the companions – narrated that Allah’s Messenger
(PBUH) said, “Whoever leaves three Friday prayers, considering it insignificant, Allah will
place a seal upon his heart.”Hadith No. 1052, Book of Salat, Suan Abu Dawud, Vol. 1.
You should make arrangements with your boss to be able to attend Jumuah salah
You don’t have to attend the khutbah
You have committed a crime in Islam if you miss 3 jumuah consecutively
To work and feed your family is an act of ibada

The spiritualist spends all his time in the masjid and the materialist spend all his time at
work
There is no such thing as a free romance

The people who enter the paradise will get two wives
This man prayed 5 times a day, fast for ramadhan and made hajj
These things costs money at most
The man who gets 72 virgins in paradise is a shaheed who gave his life
Verily, Allāh has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that
theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allāh's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed.
(At-Tawbah 9:111)
You are in the middle between the jabri'ah and the qadriyyah
The jabri'ah is called the fatalist
They think they cannot escape Qadr and blame Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
For whatever they do
The kuffaar of Quraish also made this claim
Those who took partners (in worship) with Allāh will say: "If Allāh had willed, we would not
have taken partners (in worship) with Him. (Al-An'am 6:148)
They blamed qadr for worshipping idols in the above ayah

They are jabri'ah
When Salman Rushdie wrote his book criticizing Islam

The kuffaar said it was Qadr
The Qadriyyah say Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) didn't predestine anything

They deny Qadr
Ibn Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) was pulling Zam Zam water
When someone told him about these people
Ibn Abbas said to take him to them to dig out their eyes
When they die, don't bury them in the graveyard of the Muslim
"I went to Ibn Àbbas and found him drawing water from the well of Zamzam. The bottom of
his clothes was wet with the water of Zamzam and I said to him, `They talked about Al-
Qadar (some denied it).' He asked, `Have they done this' I said, `Yes.' He said, `By Allah!
This Ayah was revealed only about them, ("Taste you the touch of Hell!'' Verily, We have
created all things with Qadar.) They are the worst members of this Ummah. Do not visit
those who fall ill among them or pray the Funeral prayer for those among them who die. If I
saw one of them, I would pluck out his eyes with these two fingers of mine.'' [Ibn Kathir
agreed Tirmidhi]
You are in the middle between the monk and the gigolo
The monk refuses to get married and stays away from women
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) didn't tell them to do that
But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but
(they sought it) only to please Allāh therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right
observance. So We gave those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of
them are Fāsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allāh). (Al-Hadid 57:27)
I've seen many priests taken away to prison because they molest kids
These pedophiles like to work at orphanages because they have no one to protect them
The monk is misguided
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said they practice a cursed innovation
The Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said marriage is his sunnah

Marriage is fard if you have sexual needs
Marriage is Sunnah if you do not have sexual needs
"I marry women. Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me.” (Trans Sahih al
Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol 7 Book 67 hadith 5063. Sahih-Muslim, English translation Vol 2
pg 703 No.3236)
Some wicked scholars say a gay can be a Muslim

If you preach this and they go and open their gay mosque
You can’t blame them because you gave them the greenlight
But Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) has made takfir on the gays
So We brought out from therein the believers. (Adh-Dhariyat 51:35)

But We found not there any household of the Muslims except one [i.e. Lout (Lot) and his two
daughters]. (Adh-Dhariyat 51:36)
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said that the angels couldn’t find one muslim home
Except the one for Lut and his daughters
The wicked scholars cannot refute the above ayah
4. YOU ARE SOFT WITH THE MUSLIM AND HARSH WITH THE KUFFAR
Muhammad (SAW) is the Messenger of Allāh, and those who are with him are severe against
disbelievers, and merciful among themselves…. (Al-Fath 48:29)
5. YOU WORSHIP ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) WITH A COMBINATION OF LOVE, FEAR

AND HOPE
If you worship Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) for Love only, you are a Sufi
If you worship Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) for Fear only, you are a khawaarij
If you worship Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) for Hope only, you are a murji
You worship Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) with a combination of three things
You love Allah, you fear the hellfire and you hope for Jannat
Because you the middle nation
A sufi will tell you to your face that he only loves Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
But he doesn’t fear Him
But you are not like them because you are a balanced nation
6. YOU ARE NOT OF THE MUSHRIKEEN
Because when you recite surah Fatiha, you say:
You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything). (Al-
Fatihah 1:5)
You recite it, you believe in it and you practice it

Why? Because you are Muslim by conviction, not by culture
I despise Muslims by culture but I love Muslims by conviction
Muslims by culture don't know what they are reciting
They don't know the 5 pillars of Islam, 6 pillars of Iman or the 7 conditions of shahada
7. YOU ARE INFALLIBLE AS AN UMMAH
As one Muslim, you are fallible. But not as an Ummah
“Verily Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) will not make Muhammad’s Community agree on
error.”al-Hakim narrated it in the Mustadrak al Hakim vol 1 pg 116 with a sound (sahih)
chain.
8. YOU ARE THE UMMAH OF HAYAA (YOU ARE SHY)
Shyness is a branch of imaan
Narrated by Abu Huraira (radiyallahu ‘anhu): The Prophet said, "Faith (Belief) consists of
more than sixty branches (i.e. parts). And Haya is a part of faith." (Bukhari)
When a woman is loud mouth and use curse words, she is not a lady.
No one will marry her
Anas (radiyallahu ‘anhu) narrated the Messenger of Allah(SAW) said: “Every religion has a
particular manner or characteristic. And the characteristic of Islam is Hayaa.” [Sunan Ibn
Majah (5/276) No. 4181]
9. YOU ARE HUMBLE IN YOUR PRAYERS
You pray diligently

Why? Because when you get up from ruku, your back is straight like a ruler
If you don’t do the acts properly, you are a thief
"The worst thief is one who steals in his prayer." Then the companions asked, "How can
someone steal from his prayer?" Prophet (SAW) answered, "He does not complete his Ruku
and Sadjah with perfection." [Musnad Ahmad (5/310) No. 22695, Sunan Darimi (1/350) No.
1328, Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah (1/331) No. 663]
The man who prays improperly is stealing from his salah as mentioned in the above hadith
10. YOU OBSTAIN FROM IDLE SPEECH
The British call it crap and the Americans call it bull****
11. YOU PAY THE ZAKAH

The one who doesn’t pay his zakat will have snakes biting him in the grave
"Whoever is made wealthy by Allah and does not pay the Zakat of his wealth, and then on
the Day of Resurrection his wealth will be made like a bald-headed poisonous male snake
with two black spots over the eyes. The snake will encircle his neck and bite his cheeks and
say, 'I am your wealth, I am your treasure.' (Bukhari Volume 2, Book 24, Number 486.)
And those who hoard up gold and silver [Al-Kanz: the money, the Zakāt of which has not
been paid], and spend it not in the Way of Allāh, -announce unto them a painful torment.
(At-Tawbah 9:34)
12. YOU PROTECT YOUR PRIVATE PARTS
You safeguard your private parts from illegal sexual intercourse

I was in South Africa in 2008 and I was told that
Everyday 1000 people die of Aids; that is like 3 jumper jets crashing
ANDREAS LUBITZ EXPOSED AS A JEWISH MOSSAD KAMIKAZE AGENT:::: http://national-
liberation.org/2015/03/26/germanwings-pilot-andreas-lubitz-exposed-as-a-mossad-
kamikaze-agent/
A man crashed a plane into a mountain killing 150 people.

He was a narcissist, Jew-atheist, gay
All the media is talking about is this guy and the plane
This is so boring; why not talk about something else
Why don’t you talk about the innocent people being killed in Iraq and Syria?
You the kuffaar, if you love life so much why do you pick on Muslims?
Muslims aren’t afraid to die
They kill themselves and kill you
This man is gay and atheist so they will never use the word terrorism
This was gay terrorism
This gay crashed a plane killing 150 people
I don’t feel sorry for the kuffaar. You know why?
They preach to be gay is normal
So he said, ‘since you preach that gay is normal, let me show you what the gays do’
And BOOM he crashed the plane
You are not allowed to feel sorry for the kuffaar
They are licking their wounds
Belief kills and cures, their belief has killed them
13. YOU ARE SHEPHARDS OF YOUR PROMISES, PLEDGES AND PLEASURES
You don’t break your promises

If we can't trust you, you have no deen
If we lend you £1000, you don't pay it back
You are a thief and we can’t trust you
"There is no faith for the one who has no amanah (trust) and no religion for the one who
does not keep his promises." [Musnad Ahmad (3/135) No. 12406, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-
Bayhaqi (9/387) No. 18851]
Abu Huraira narrated the Prophet (SAW) said: “The one who gets married with the intention
not to pay dowry to his wife is a fornicator. And the one who borrows money with the
intention not to pay back is a thief.” [Ibn Hibban in ‘al-Majruheen’ (2/261) No. 941]
Some on you are worse than CNN, you can't keep a secret
The Prophet said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three: 1. Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie.
2. Whenever he promises, he always breaks it (his promise ). 3. If you trust him, he proves
to be dishonest. (If you keep something as a trust with him, he will not return it.)" Bukhari ::
Book 1 :: Volume 2 :: Hadith 34
Successful indeed are the believers. (Al-Mu'minun 23:1)

Those who offer their Salāt (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness. (Al-
Mu'minun 23:2)
And those who turn away from Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk, falsehood, and all that
Allāh has forbidden). (Al-Mu'minun 23:3)
And those who pay the Zakāt . (Al-Mu'minun 23:4)
And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts) (Al-Mu'minun
23:5)
Except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then,
they are free from blame; (Al-Mu'minun 23:6)
But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors; (Al-Mu'minun 23:7)
Those who are faithfully true to their Amanāt (all the duties which Allāh has ordained,
honesty, moral responsibility and trusts etc.)[] and to their covenants; (Al-Mu'minun 23:8)
And those who strictly guard their (five compulsory congregational) Salawāt (prayers) (at
their fixed stated hours). (Al-Mu'minun 23:9)
These are indeed the inheritors. (Al-Mu'minun 23:10)
Who shall inherit the Firdaus (Paradise). They shall dwell therein forever. (Al-Mu'minun
23:11)
14. YOU KEEP UP THE FIVE DAILY PRAYERS
The first thing Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) will ask you about
On Day Of Judgement are your 5 daily prayers
“The first thing the people will be accountable for on the Day of Judgment is prayer, Allah
will say to His angels (even though he already knows) : “Look at my servants prayers. Were
they complete or not?” If they were complete It will be written as complete. If they were not
fully complete Allah will say: “See if my servant has voluntary prayers, If he has them Allah
will say: Complete his obligatory prayers shortage with his voluntary prayers.” Then the rest
of his deeds will be dealt with in the same manner.” [Reported by Imams Ahmad, Abu
Dawood, An-Nisa'i, and Al-Hakim]
Question 1: Sheikh is zakat fardh for muslim women who are not married?
Answer 1: Marriage doesn't impact on zakat

What impacts on zakat is poverty
If you are poor, you don't pay zakat, you receive it
If you have $1000 in savings, you pay $25.
If you have $2000 in savings, you pay $50
You pay 2.5% of your savings
The Christians charge 10% to spread kufr
Question 2: Salamun Alaika sheikh. There are so many people who say the
shahadah and don't pray or attend juma'a, were there sahabah who were
like that?
Answer 2: No sahabah was like this

Even the hypocrites used to go to Jumuah
The leader of the hypocrites, Abdullah Ibn Ubayy, also attended the Jumuah
If you don’t pray you are a kafir as per the ayah the below
Salah is a criterion to be accepted as a muslims
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said you need 3 conditions to accept their revert
But if they repent, perform As-Salāt (Iqāmat-as-Salāt) and give Zakāt, then they are your
brethren in religion. (In this way) We explain the Ayāt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons,
signs, revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah 9:11)
Jabir reports that the Prophet (SAW) said, "Between a person and disbelief is discarding
prayer." (Related by Ahmad, Muslim, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmizhi and Ibn Majah.)
Buraidah reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, "The pact between us and them is prayer.
Whoever abandons it is a disbeliever." (Related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmizhi, anNasa'i
and Ibn Majah.)
They have to stop the shirk they are commiting,

There is no such thing as a non-practicing Muslim
You have to practice or you are a kaafir
Three conditions: stop practicing shirk, perform 5 daily prayers and pay the zakah
Question 3: If I didn’t give my wife her dowry because I’m saving up for it,
am I considered a fornicator?
Answer 3: You are not a fornicator because it is your intention to pay the dowry
You are only a fornicator if you marry the girl with the intention not to pay the dowry.
Abu Huraira narrated the Prophet (SAW) said: “The one who gets married with the intention
not to pay dowry to his wife is a fornicator. And the one who borrows money with the
intention not to pay back is a thief.” [Ibn Hibban in ‘al-Majruheen’ (2/261) No. 941]
Question 4: Salaam alakum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu, may Allah

preserve you sheikh. If a person is gay and muslim but knows that being gay
is haram and dies upon this, is he still a kaffir?
Answer 5: There is no such thing as a gay Muslim

There is no evidence to support that a gay can be a Muslim
When Ali (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was the Caliph, he caught gays
They burned their bodies and refused to do janazah over them
Any man who became a gay and refuses to make tawbah before he dies (dies in that state),
His family has to cremate him because you don’t know what disease they may be carrying
There is a difference of opinion concerning the punishment for the one who commits
sodomy. The following are the opinions that were mentioned by Imam Ash-Shawkani in
"Nayl Al-Awtar" , Vol. 7/p122-124.
1) That he is killed with the sword, then burnt. This is narrated from Abu Bakr and 'Ali Ibn
Abi Talib.
2) That they are burned. This was narrated by Al-Bayhaqi, that Abu Bakr gathered the
Sahabah and 'Ali mentioned this, and the Sahabah agreed upon it. It was also mentioned by
Al-Munthiri that it was done by Abu Bakr, 'Ali, 'Abdullah Ibn Az-Zubayr, and Hisham Ibn
'Abdil-Malik.
3) That he is stoned, then burnt with fire. This is narrated from the Sahabah agreeing upon it
in the time of Abu Bakr.
The hikmah behind burning the body is because

The family may want to bury the body in the graveyard of the Muslim.
If the body is burned to ashes, this is not possible.
So We brought out from therein the believers. (Adh-Dhariyat 51:35)

But We found not there any household of the Muslims except one [i.e. Lout (Lot) and his two
daughters]. (Adh-Dhariyat 51:36)
Question 5: I met a pious Arab man who was being stern calling out to some
brothers at the masjid. He claimed certain ones were not making wudoo at
all or that they were not real Muslims. I thought he was being racist or harsh.
But he told me that he sees darkness in those men. Later one was discovered
to be a pimp, a second was a Zaani hitting on Muslim women, and a third was
not making wudoo. subhanAllah
Answer 5: The one who didn't make wudu is a spy

It is easy to know a spy
They can't make wudu properly
These people were fake muslims
Question 6: What if a muslim is fighting the urge of being gay and is caught
in the action but wants to repent. What is ruling on him?
Answer 6: Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) forgives all sins
Say: "O 'Ibādī (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil
deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allāh, verily Allāh forgives all sins. Truly, He is
Homosexuality is a disease that can be treated

All the diseases of the heart can be treated
All addictions can be treated
Although some addictions are more addictive than others
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) forgives All sins, so don't give up hope
Some people give up homosexuality for marriage
They get married and have kids
You can google ‘ex-gays’ and you will see those who have given up this disease
Who Are You – Part 2

Wednesday, 1st April 2015

Edited and formatted by AT38
15. YOU ARE PATIENT WITH THE CALAMITIES OF ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA)
Many people insult Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) and apostate when they are faced with a
calamity
And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and
fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sābirin (the patient ones, etc.). (Al-Baqarah 2:155)
Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allāh we belong and truly, to Him we shall
return." (Al-Baqarah 2:156)
You should say ‘Truly! To Allāh (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) we belong And truly, to Him we shall
return’, from the first strike of a calamity
Not after some time that you have already said and acted in ways inappropriate
The believer is patient in times of calamity
Because of that, the rasul (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said:
Suhayb Ibn Sinan narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Wonderful are the affairs of
a believer; for there is good in every affair of his; this is not the case with anyone else except
a believer. If he has an occasion to feel delight, he thanks (Allah), thus there is good for him
in it. If he suffers affliction, he endures patiently, which is good for him. [Sahih Muslim
(4/2295) No. 2999]
So the believer in thankful in times of blessings

And patient during calamities
16. YOU PRACTICE TAWAKKUL
Tawakkul means to put your complete trust in Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)

The munafiqoon said to the believers that a huge army was coming to fight them
This was before the battle of Uhud but this only increased their trust in Allah (Subhanahu
Wa Ta’ala) as related in the following ayah
Those (i.e. believers) unto whom the people (hypocrites) said, "Verily, the people (pagans)
have gathered against you (a great army), therefore, fear them." But it (only) increased
them in Faith, and they said: "Allāh (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of
affairs (for us)." (Aali Imran 3:173)
This believer should be like the bird in his trust in Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Umar ibn Khattab reported that Allah’s Messenger said “If you trust in Allah observing a true
trust in Him, then, indeed, He will give you provision as He provides the birds who emerge
hungry in the morning and return with a full belly in the evening.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/573)
2344, Musnad Ahmad (1/30) No. 205, Sunan Ibn Majah (5/266) No. 4164]
17. YOU DON'T DESPAIR – GIVE UP FROM ALLAH’S (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) MERCY AND
HELP
Prophet Yaqub (‘alayhi salatu wa salam) said to his sons:
"O my sons! Go you and enquire about Yusuf (Joseph) and his brother, and never give up
hope of Allah's Mercy. Certainly no one despairs of Allah's Mercy, except the people who
disbelieve." (Yusuf 12:87)
A sincere believer doesn't despair, because Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) told you in 39:53
That you should never despair
Say: "O 'Ibadi (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil
deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, verily Allah forgives all sins. Truly, He is
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) forgives even Shirk,

As long as you make your tawbah before you die
So you are not allowed to despair from His mercy
18. YOU LOVE WHAT ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) LOVES AND YOU HATE WHAT ALLAH
(SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) HATES – AL WALAA WAL BARAA
You practice al walaa al baraa

A munafiq cannot practice al walaa al baraa
They call it hate speech and when they attend a khutbah talking it
They will never return to that masjid again because he can’t practice it
Every Muslim is a hater because you love what is good and you hate what is evil
This hatred is called holy hatred
Why? Because you love and hate for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Not for the sake of your nafs (personal gains)
19. YOU ARE SHWERD, SHARP AND CAREFUL
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said: "A believer is not bitten from the same
hole twice.” [Related by al-Bukhari (6133) and Muslim (2998)]
Abu Sa’eed Khudri (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, ‘Guard yourself against
a Believer’s insight, for, he sees with the light of Allah.” He then recited: Surely in that are
signs for the sagacious. (15:75)
Firaasa (insight) is the ability to look in the face of a man and being able to tell he is a fake
Muslim
20. YOU DO NOT ARGUE WITH THE HUJJAH
Hujjah means Evidence from the Quran and Sunnah

Therefore you do not make ijtihad when the text is clear
The evidences for surrendering to the hujjah are 33:36 and 4:65
It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter
that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His
Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error. (Al-Ahzab 33:36)
But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad SAW) judge
in all disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions,
and accept (them) with full submission. (An-Nisa 4:65)
If Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) and the Rasool (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) says anything
You don't argue against it and try to look ways to water it down
But a munafiq (hypocrite) is extremely rebellious to Quran and Sunnah
He always has ifs and buts to argues against the hujjah
If a hypocrite quotes a Qur’anic verse and puts a spin on it,
You didn't argue with the hujjah if you reject his explanation
Because he didn't explain the verse properly
That is his tafsir and his tafsir isn't real, it is fake
He puts a spin on it, he spins it out of context
However, if a sincere scholar explains the Qur’anic verse he gives you the proper tafsir of it
And you argue, then you are arguing with the hujjah
O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet (SAW), nor speak
aloud to him in talk as you speak aloud to one another, lest your deeds may be rendered
fruitless while you perceive not. (Al-Hujurat 49:2)
One of the characteristics of a sincere believer is, he doesn't argue with the hujjah
21. YOU DON'T SIT WHERE ALLAH’S (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) DEEN IS RIDICULED
The evidence is 4:140
And it has already been revealed to you in the Book (this Qur'an) that when you hear the
Verses of Allah being denied and mocked at, then sit not with them, until they engage in a
talk other than that; (but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like
them. Surely, Allah will collect the hypocrites and disbelievers all together in Hell, (An-Nisa
4:140)
If you sit at a gathering where Allah’s (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) deen is being ridiculed
And you feel comfortable; you are guilty of being like them
Meaning you become a kaafir like them
And when you (Muhammad SAW) see those who engage in a false conversation about Our
Verses (of the Qur'an) by mocking at them, stay away from them till they turn to another
topic. And if Shaitan (Satan) causes you to forget, then after the remembrance sit not you in
the company of those people who are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers, etc.). (Al-
An'am 6:68)
This also proves that a sincere believer will never sit at a gathering where Allah’s
(Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) deen is being ridiculed
When you come to paltalk, you should not go to those rooms where
The deen is being mocked and ridiculed
You may think that you are having harmless fun but that is not the case
This is a serious matter
Don't go to the Christian rooms in Paltalk, they will only red dot you
They don't like to be exposed.
So they won’t allow you to debate them
22. YOU DO NOT CHEAT THE MUSLIMS
If you are selling a car with a fault, you tell the Muslim the fault
Don’t cheat the Muslim
Abu Hurayra (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "Anyone who carries
arms against us is not one of us. Anyone who cheats us is not one of us." [Sahih Muslim,
23. YOU DO NOT TAKE UP WEAPONS AGAINST THE MUSLIMS IN ERNEST OR JEST
Abu Hurayra (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said, "Anyone who carries
arms against us is not one of us. Anyone who cheats us is not one of us." [Sahih Muslim,
You are not allowed to fight a Muslim not even as a joke
24. YOU DON'T DABBLE IN BLACK MAGIC
In some Muslim countries, every village has a magician

In Morocco, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan etc
And they use their magic to break up man from wife
Or make a beautiful woman fall in love with a dead-beat man who is ugly
….And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man
and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allāh's Leave. And they learn
that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the buyers of it
(magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they
sold their ownselves, if they but knew. (Al-Baqarah 2:102)
These people advertise their skills in the newspapers and they call themselves Shaikh
They put things like:
"If you want to win a court case, come and see me"
“If your wealth is stolen, come to me to find out who took it”
“If you want a girl to fall in love with you, come to me”
“Are you sick and want to get cured, come to me”
“You have a jinn problem, come to me”
“Do you want to get rich, come to me”
These are the type of things they put out as advertisement

Calling out to their kufr and shirk
When they advertise their skills, they advertise many concerns
You have to pay for these services - it's not free
The jinns don’t work for free and neither will they do these for free
The Rasool (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said:
Jundub (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “The hadd
(prescribed punishment) for the practitioner of magic is a blow with the sword (i.e.,
execution)" [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/60) No. 1460, Sunan al-Daraqutni (4/120) No. 3204,
Mustadrak al-Haakim (4/401) No. 8073, al-Sunan al-Kabir al-Bayhaqi (8/234) No. 16500, al-
Mu'jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (2/161) No. 1665]
And Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said in 2:102
They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of
Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved,
teaching men magic and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut
and Marut, but neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said,
"We are only for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)." And from these
(angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man and his wife, but
they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's Leave. And they learn that which harms
them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have
no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they sold their ownselves,
if they but knew. (Al-Baqarah 2:102)
When you break up man from wife it is called the sihr of separation
If you do black magic (or paid for it to be done), you become a kaafir
Because magic takes you outside of the fold of Islam
It is also one of the 7 major sins
which Allah has forbidden, except by legal right, consuming usury, consuming the property
of an orphan, fleeing on the day of battle and slandering unthinking chaste believing
women." [al-Bukhari (2766) and Muslim (89)]
Shirk
Sorcery
Killing a Muslim
Ribaa
Stealing from an orphan
Leaving jihad
Slandering a pious Muslimah
25. YOU DO NOT ARGUE WITH THE IGNORANT
Because Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said 25:63

And the slaves of the Most Beneficent (Allah) are those who walk on the earth in humility
and sedateness, and when the foolish address them (with bad words) they reply back with
mild words of gentleness. (Al-Furqan 25:63)
Why argue with a person who says "I can make Hajj in Ramadan"?
This is not possible. He is ignorant
And you only disgrace yourself by arguing with them
Don't argue with a person who has made up his own religion.
26. YOU ARE DILIGENT WITH TAHUJJUD AND QIYAAMUL LAYL
There is a difference between these two

Tahujjud means you go to sleep and later get up to pray
This has more blessings than Qiyaamul layl
Qiyaamul layl is when you pray before going to bed, you do not rest first for this prayer
It is more difficult to get up for tahujjud after sleeping that is why it has more barakah
And those who spend the night before their Lord, prostrate and standing. (Al-Furqan 25:64)
27. YOU CONSTANTLY REMEMBER THE HELLFIRE AND SEEK REFUGE FROM IT
And those who say: "Our Lord! Avert from us the torment of Hell. Verily! Its torment is ever
an inseparable, permanent punishment." (Al-Furqan 25:65)
Evil indeed it (Hell) is as an abode and as a place to dwell. (Al-Furqan 25:66)
The hellfire is only a permanent abode for the kuffaar and the munafiqoon (hypocrites)
A believer asks Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) not to die as a kaafir
A sincere believer constantly thinks about the hellfire and the grave
The grave can have light in it if he does pious deeds
The grave is a garden from one of the gardens of paradise
Or a pit from one of the pits of the hellfire
A munafiq will say hellfire is a myth

There is no such thing as the hellfire
Life after death is also a myth to the munafiq
When you're dead, you're dead, that’s it
However, a munafiq will never speak that way in front of you
Because they are skillful in hiding their hypocrisy
They say with their tongues the opposite of what is in their hearts
28. WHEN YOU SPEND YOU DON'T WASTE, NOR ARE YOU MISERLY
And [they are] those who, when they spend, do so not excessively or sparingly but are ever,
between that, [justly] moderate (Al-Furqan 25:67) Sahih international.
29. THE SINCERE BELIEVER DOESN'T CALL UPON FALSE DEITIES
And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah… (Al-Furqan 25:68)
A sincere believer cannot be a grave worshipper

The three grave worshippers of the ummah: Shia, Sufi and Berailvi
Surely, the religion (i.e. the worship and the obedience) is for Allah only. And those who take
Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say) : "We worship them only that they may
bring us near to Allah." Verily, Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they
differ. Truly, Allah guides not him who is a liar, and a disbeliever. (Az-Zumar 39:3)
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) dismissed them as liars and kuffaar
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case) they were to hear,
they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will
disown your worshipping them. And none can inform you (O Muhammad SAW) like Him Who
is the AllKnower (of each and everything)[]. (Fatir 35:14)
When you make dua to them, you are worshipping them
30. YOU DON'T KILL THE INNOCENT PEOPLE
Because Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) says in 25:68
forbidden, except for just cause,
(Al-Furqan 25:68)
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) also says in 4:93 you have gained His anger and curse
If you should kill an innocent Muslim intentionally
And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the
Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him. (An-
Nisa 4:93)
HADITH 14
‫اﻟﺤﺪﻳﺚ اﻟﺮاﺑﻊ ﻋﺸﺮ‬
‫ ﻗﺎل رﺳﻮل ﷲ ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﻪ وآﻟﻪ وﺳﻠﻢ ﻻ ﻳﺤﻞ‬:‫» ﻋﻦ اﺑﻦ ﻣﺴﻌﻮد رﺿﻲ ﷲ ﺗﻌﺎﻟﻰ ﻋﻨﻪ ﻗﺎل‬
‫ واﻟﺘﺎرك ﻟﺪﻳﻨﻪ اﻟﻤﻔﺎرق‬،‫ واﻟﻨﻔﺲ ﺑﺎﻟﻨﻔﺲ‬،‫ اﻟﺜﯿﺐ اﻟﺰاﻧﻲ‬:‫دم اﻣﺮئ ﻣﺴﻠﻢ إﻻ ﺑﺈﺣﺪى ﺛﻼث‬
. «‫ﻟﻠﺠﻤﺎﻋﺔ‬
.‫رواه اﻟﺒﺨﺎري وﻣﺴﻠﻢ‬
On the authority of Ibn Masood (RA) who said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "It is not
permissible to spill the blood of a Muslim except in three [instances]: the married person
who commits adultery, a life for a life, and the one who forsakes his religion and separates
from the community." It was related by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
Narrated By 'Abdullah: Allah's Apostle said, "The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none
has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in
three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse
and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims." [al-Bukhari (6878)
and Muslim (1676)]
If you kill someone intentionally, you should be killed

But if it was unintentional killing, blood money should be paid
In intentional killing, the family can say they want you dead,
Or choose blood money, or the family can forgive you
When I was in Saudi, a man killed a man and the family forgave him.
They asked that he memorise the Quran while in prison and the man did that.
And they forgave him because that was the condition for them to forgive him
They said he was out of touch with Quran that was he committed murder
The family has the power to say what should be done

To kill him/her, to accept blood money or forgive him/her
Not the Qadi court
When Mu’awwiya (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was the Caliph, a child's father was killed.
When the child reached puberty, Mu’awwiya gave the boy the option
To either kill him, take the blood money or forgive him
The boy chose to kill the man so he was killed
Mu’awiyyah was a faqih
Narrated By Ibn Abi Mulaika: Somebody said to Ibn 'Abbas, "Can you speak to the chief of
the believers Muwaiya, as he does not pray except one Rak'a as Witr?" Ibn 'Abbas replied,
"He is a Faqih (i.e. a learned man who can give religious verdicts)." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 5,
Book 57, Hadith 109]
31. YOU DON'T COMMIT ZINA
shall receive the punishment. (Al-Furqan 25:68)
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) didn't say "Don't commit zina",

He (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) said "DONT COME NEAR ZINA"
And come not near to the unlawful sexual intercourse. Verily, it is a Fahishah [i.e. anything
that transgresses its limits (a great sin)], and an evil way (that leads one to Hell unless Allah
forgives him). (Al-Isra 17:32)
This commandment is stronger than saying don't commit zina

It means don't even approach the avenues that lead you to zina
Whenever a man and a woman are alone together, the third person is the shaitan
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab: The Prophet said, "...Whenever a man is alone with a woman
the Devil makes a third..." [Musnad Ahmad (1/26) No. 177, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/465) No.
2165, Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/197) No. 387, Sahih Ibn Hibban (12/399) No. 5586, Nasa'i in
Some people use this hadith to say you cannot talk to the opposite sex on social media
That is an incorrect interpretation of the hadith
But they are correct if your intention in talking to the opposite sex is mischief
But if your intention is dawah, you did nothing wrong
Many brothers and sisters’ marriages were destroyed because of social media
32. YOU MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, who said: The messenger of Allah said “A sign of one’s
excellence in his Islam, is ignoring what does not concern him.” [Ahmad, Malik & At-
Tirmidhi]
A war is currently going on between Ukraine and Russia

That is none of your business
If you see two kuffaar fighting, it is none of your business
You may try to intervene and get killed
You should only intervene if a Muslim is involve in the fight
33. YOU DON'T EAT THE FLESH OF YOUR MUSLIM BROTHERS - BACKBITE
34. YOU DON'T SPY ON THE MUSLIMS
O you who believe! Avoid much suspicions, indeed some suspicions are sins. And spy not,
neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You
would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is the One Who accepts
repentance, Most Merciful. (Al-Hujurat 49:12)
The Prophet (pbuh) said: “Do not eavesdrop or spy on one another. Do not rival and envy
one another nor despise and shun one another. Be worshippers of Allah and be brothers as
Allah has commanded you to be.” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (5144) and Sahîh Muslim (2563) with
the wording as related by Muslim]
You are not allowed to spy on them even if it is to find their faults
It has been reported that a man was brought before Abdullah bin Mas'ud (RA) because his
beard was giving out smell of wine. Ibn Mas'ud said: "We have been prohibited from spying
(on Muslims) and finding faults (with them). But if something is clear to us, then we punish
for it." [Sunan Abu Dawud (4/272-273) No. 4890]
Not every suspicious is a sin but some are

Because if you are detective working on a murder case you need to work on suspicion
But that too should be because of evidence you have to make you suspicious
People have weaknesses and aren’t perfect so you aren’t allowed to spy
35. YOU DON'T RIDICULE OTHERS AND DISGRACE THEM
36. YOU DON'T CALL OTHERS BY OFFENSIVE NICK NAMES TO HURT THEIR FEELINGS
Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) reported that at the time of the liberation of Makkah, the Prophet
(SAW) addressed the people. He said, "O you people, surely Allah has removed from you
pride of pre-Islamic days and pride in high descent. Thus, men are of two kinds, man who is
pious and God-fearing, and noble in the Sight of Allah. The other kind is a sinner,
hardhearted and lowly in Allah's Sight. But, men are children of Adam and Allah had Created
Adam from dust. He said: "And revile not one another with nicknames." (49:12) [Sunan
Tirmidhi (5/389) No. 3270]
In the kuffaar culture, they like to call each other names

They call the Mexicans wetback,
They call people nigger for their skin colours
They call the Arabs sandniggers and blacks, niggers
But to call a person a housenigger or a coconut because he sold out, that is ok
You are not being racist
But to call a person nigger just because he is black is haram
O you who believe! Let not a group scoff at another group, it may be that the latter are
better than the former; nor let (some) women scoff at other women, it may be that the latter
are better than the former, nor defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames.
How bad is it, to insult one's brother after having Faith [i.e. to call your Muslim brother (a
faithful believer) as: "O sinner", or "O wicked", etc.]. And whosoever does not repent, then
such are indeed Zalimun (wrong-doers, etc.). (Al-Hujurat 49:11)
37. YOU DON'T PRACTICE TALE-BEARING
Ibn ‘Abbas related that the Messenger of God, upon him be God’s blessings and peace,
passed by two graves and said: “They are being punished, but not for a great matter (on
their part). One of them did not clean himself from urine, and the other used to spread
slander.” (Tirmidhi, “Tahara,” 53)
38. YOU PRACTICE HYGIENE
39. YOU ARE SINCERE WITH YOUR TAWBAH
….Truly, Allah loves those who turn unto Him in repentance and loves those who purify
themselves (by taking a bath and cleaning and washing thoroughly their private parts,
bodies, for their prayers, etc.). (Al-Baqarah 2:222)
40. YOU PAY ATTENTION TO FIQHUL WAQI – CURRENT EVENTS
It was narrated from Abd-Allaah ibn Masood (RA) that the Prophet (SAW) said: "Whoever
starts his day caring about something other than Allaah has nothing to do with Allaah, and
whoever does not care about the Muslims is not one of them." [Narrated by al-Haakim in al-
Mustadrak (4/356)]
A believer pays attention to current events (fiqhul waqi)

It is inappropriate to behave like a dinosaur (ignorant of current events)
41. YOU DON'T WITNESS FALSEHOOD – SENSELESS PASTIMES
42. YOU DON'T GO TO SENSELESS PASSTIMES
And those who do not witness falsehood, and if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they
pass by it with dignity. (Al-Furqan 25:72)
Don't waste your time going to a play where

The kuffaar are acting and saying crap and using a lot of foul language
You don’t have the time to be listening to these things
These things sow hypocrisy in the heart
The kuffaar criticised Jihadi John's sister because

She doesn't know Kim Kardashian or who won the Oscars
Who cares about these people and who won what!
Muslim women aren't interested in that
These women are fuel for the hellfire
They accused her of being sheltered from their society
I am impressed with this Muslim woman
A real Muslim woman wouldn't waste her time with these stupid soap operas
These movies sow hypocrisy in your heart
Talk shows make you think zina isn't a big deal
Jerry Springer has conditioned us to believe that zina is fun
When you get hooked on the kaafir tv,
Your name may be Khadijah but you have the identity of Kathy, Susan etc.
These stand-up comedian use a lot of F-words in their shows

Even Richard Pryor used bad words and he came out in the 1970s
He got burned by Coke and Michael Jackson got burned by Pepsi
If you respect yourself as a Muslim, you will never be entertained by these kuffaar
Who are nothing but scums of the earth and fuel for the hellfire
43. YOU ARE NOT HARD-HEARTED
When you live in a concrete jungle like London, Manhattan etc

Where there are no rivers or trees, you become hard-hearted
When you hear Quran and Sunnah, you can't cry
When was the last time you went to the masjid and heard the Quran and cried?
The last time some of you cried for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Was maybe 20 years ago
Some of you live in concrete jungles
When was the last time you heard the story of the sahabah (radiyallahu ‘anhum)
And tears came to your eyes?
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) has made it haram on the hellfire to burn two eyes:
The eyes that keep watch over the borders of the Islamic State
And those that cry for Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that he heard Allah’s Messenger (SAW) say, ‘(There are) two eyes
that the Fire will never touch, the eye that wept from fear of Allah and the eye that stood
guard in the night in Allah’s path.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/175) No. 1639 and Shu'ab al-Eman al-
Bayhaqi (3/227) No. 1639]
The Jews are very hard hearted

Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) spoke about the hard hearted Jews in 2:74
Then, after that, your hearts were hardened and became as stones or even worse in
hardness. And indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and indeed, there are
of them (stones) which split asunder so that water flows from them, and indeed, there are of
them (stones) which fall down for fear of Allah. And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
(Al-Baqarah 2:74)
A real believer is not hard hearted
When the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) died

Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) threatened to chop off the head of anyone
Who says the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) was dead
Abu Bakr (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was cool, calm and collective and read ayah 3:144
As stated in the following hadith
Muhammad (SAW) is no more than a Messenger, and indeed (many) Messengers have
passed away before him. If he dies or is killed, will you then turn back on your heels (as
disbelievers)? And he who turns back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allāh, and
Allāh will give reward to those who are grateful. (Aali Imran 3:144)
Narrated Abu Salama from Ibn Abbas : Abu Bakr came out and 'Umar , was addressing the
people, and Abu Bakr told him to sit down but 'Umar refused. Abu Bakr again told him to sit
down but 'Umar again refused. Then Abu Bakr recited the Tashah-hud (i.e. none has the
right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is Allah's Apostle) and the people attended
to Abu Bakr and left Umar. Abu Bakr said, "Amma ba'du, whoever amongst you worshipped
Muhammad, then Muhammad is dead, but whoever worshipped Allah, Allah is alive and will
never die. Allah said: 'Muhammad is no more than an Apostle and indeed (many) Apostles
have passed away before him ..(up to the) grateful.' " (3.144) (The narrator added, "By
Allah, it was as if the people never knew that Allah had revealed this verse before till Abu
Bakr recited it and then whoever heard it, started reciting it ") [Bakhari Volume 2, Book 23,
Number 333]
Umar surrendered to the hujjah after the ayah was quoted

He didn’t argue because he wasn’t hardhearted
Some of you when the hujjah is presented to you

You have buts and ifs to add to it and argue
.Al-Hafiz Abu Ishaq Ibrahim bin 'Abdur-Rahman bin Ibrahim bin Duhaym recorded that
Damrah narrated that two men took their dispute to the Prophet (SAW), and he gave a
judgment to the benefit of whoever among them had the right. The person who lost the
dispute said, "I do not agree." The other person asked him, "What do you want then" He
said, "Let us go to Abu Bakr As-Siddiq." They went to Abu Bakr and the person who won the
dispute said, "We went to the Prophet (SAW) with our dispute and he issued a decision in my
favor." Abu Bakr said, "Then the decision is that which the Messenger of Allah (SAW)
issued."The person who lost the dispute still rejected the decision and said, "Let us go to
'Umar bin Al-Khattab." When they went to 'Umar, the person who won the dispute said, "We
took our dispute to the Prophet (SAW) and he decided in my favor, but this man refused to
submit to the decision." 'Umar bin Al-Khattab asked the second man and he concurred.
'Umar went to his house and emerged from it holding aloft his sword. He struck the head of
the man who rejected the Prophet’s decision with the sword and killed him. Consequently,
ْ ‫ﺠ َﺮ ﺑَ ْﯿ َﻨ ُﮭ‬
Allah revealed, [‫ﻢ‬ َ ‫ﺷ‬
َ ‫ﻤﺎ‬
َ ‫ك ﻓِﯿ‬ ُ ّ‫ﻜ‬
َ ‫ﻤﻮ‬ َ ‫ﺣ ﱠﺘﻰ ُﻳ‬
ِ ‫ﺤ‬ َ ‫ﻮن‬ ِ ‫ﻚ َﻻ ُﻳ ْﺆ‬
َ ‫ﻣ ُﻨ‬ َ (But no, by your Lord, they
َ ِّ‫]ﻓﻼ َو َرﺑ‬
can have no Faith, until they make you judge in all disputes between them... (An-Nisa
4:65)). [Tafseer Ibn Katheer (2/351-352)]
Not a single person said he was overreacting for killing the man
Not even the prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) objected
This man lost his life because he was a munafiq
One of the signs of a munafiq is that he can't surrender to the hujjah
44. YOU BEG ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) TO BLESS YOU WITH A PIOUS WIFE
45. YOU BEG ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA’ALA) TO BLESS YOU WITH PIOUS CHILDREN
Many of you assume that because you are a Muslim, you will have a pious wife
Two Prophets had kuffaar wives – Lut and Nuh (‘alayhima salatu wa salam)
You need to beg Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) for a pious wife
And those who say: "Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring who will be
the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders for the Muttaqun" (pious - see V.2:2 and the
footnote of V.3:164)." (Al-Furqan 25:74)
O you who believe! Verily, among your wives and your children there are enemies for you
(i.e. may stop you from the obedience of Allah), therefore beware of them! But if you pardon
(them) and overlook, and forgive (their faults), then verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most
Merciful. (At-Taghabun 64:14)
Why did Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) reveal this Ayah?

Because when the Muslims were persecuted in Makkah,
They decided to migrate to Madina
Some of the wives told their husbands not to migrate
They listened to their wives and stayed behind
When they migrated to Madinah some 8 years later
They saw that they have lagged behind because they didn’t know their deen like the rest
People like Umm Salama, Aisha, Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhum) memorised the Quran
And many other sahabah also memorized 1000s of hadith
They said ‘I don't know anything about Islam because I stayed behind’
And wanted to beat up their wives for giving them that advice
When they were angry about their decision, Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) revealed 64:14
This is called causes of revelation
Ibn Masood (radiyallahu ‘anhu) said there is no verse in the Quran that
He doesn't know the reason why Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) revealed it
46. YOU DON'T INSULT THE SAHABAH OR THE PIOUS PREDECESSORS
And those who came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have
preceded us in Faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed.
Our Lord! You are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful. (Al-Hashr 59:10)
When you read the story of Ali and Mu’awiyya (radiyallahu ‘anhuma)
Your stance should be that they both made ijtihad
Ali (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was right so he gets 2 rewards
Mu’awiyya (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was wrong so he gets only 1 reward
You insult neither of them
I received a video about Yasir Qadhi saying Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu)

Didn’t know how to make wudu and would fail figh test
And all the people in the audience were laughing at what he was saying
I haven't seen it yet
Filthy Mouthed Yasir Qadhi's Remark About

Umar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JO4gIibq5yY&app=desktop
If Yasir Qadhi is insulting one of the rightly guided caliphs

Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was not an ordinary sahabi
He has committed a serious blunder
The prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said about insulting his sahabah
Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA) narrated the prophet (SAW) said: ‘Do not slander my Companions,
for if one of you were to spend an amount of gold equivalent to the size of Mount Uhud, you
would not even come halfway up to their level." [al-Bukhari (3673) and Muslim (2540)]
One of you should send this hadith to Yasir Qadhi, maybe he forgot this hadith
To ridicule a pious predecessor, you have gone too far.
47. YOU DON'T HARM YOUR NEIGHBOR
Because the Prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) said:
The Messenger of Allah said: “Anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should not
harm his neighbor, and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should entertain his
guest generously and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should say what is
good or keep quiet”. (Sahih Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol.8 pg.29 No.47)
48. YOU ARE GENEROUS TO YOUR GUEST
The Messenger of Allah said: “Anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should not
harm his neighbor, and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should entertain his
guest generously and anybody who believes in Allah and the last day should say what is
good or keep quiet”. (Sahih Bukhari (Arabic/English) Vol.8 pg.29 No.47)
49. YOU DON'T PUT TATTOOS ON YOUR BODY
This is a major sin not minor a sin

Why? Because you gain the curse of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
And His Rasool (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam)
Anytime you read a verse or hadith that says you gain the curse of Allah (Subhanahu Wa
Ta’ala) if you do an act, it is a major sin
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said: Allah has cursed those women who practise tattooing and those
women who have themselves tattooed, and those women who get their hair removed from
their eyebrows and faces (except the beard and the mustache), and those who make
artificial spaces between their teeth for beauty, whereby they change Allah's creation. A
woman started to argue with him, saying: "What is all this?" He replied: "Why should I not
curse those whom the Messenger of Allah (SAW) cursed and who are cursed in Allah's Book?
Allah, the Exalted, has said in His Book: "And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad
(SAW)) gives you, take it; and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it)." (59:7) [al-
Bukhari (5931) and Muslim (2125)]
Permanent tattoo is haram not temporary tattoo
50. YOU DON'T ABANDON NOR UNDERMINE JIHAD
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace
be upon him) said: One who died but did not fight in the way of Allah nor did he express any
desire (or determination) for Jihad died the death of a hypocrite. [Sahih Muslim, Book 20,
Hadith 4696]
51. YOU CAMPAIGN FOR THE KHILAFA
52. YOU BELIEVE IN HIJRAH
The believer believes in hijra because of 4:97
Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as
they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for them), they
(angels) say (to them) : "In what (condition) were you?" They reply: "We were weak and
oppressed on earth." They (angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you
to emigrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination! (An-
Nisa 4:97)
Except the weak ones among men, women and children who cannot devise a plan, nor are
they able to direct their way. (An-Nisa 4:98)
If you refuse to make hijrah you belong to the madhab of the wife of prophet Lut
Except for those who can’t find a way out for themselves to make hijrah
The kuffaar yesterday used to prevent the Muslims from making hijrah
And today they charge you with terrorism if you are caught trying to make hijrah
Their hearts are alike that is why their treatment of Muslims doesn’t change
They hate us but they won’t allow us to migrate
Because the moment we leave there will be natural disasters
Because they are the Sodom and Gomorra of today
So like yesterday, the disaster struck when Lut left the town
They kuffaar preach what they don’t practice
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allah) on
the people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you recite the Scripture [the
Taurat (Torah)]! Have you then no sense? (Al-Baqarah 2:44)
Question 1: As salaamu alaikum sheikh. My parents are kuffaar and they

have openly showed their dislike and intolerance towards Islam, am I still
obligated to be dutiful to them?
Answer 1: Your situation is tricky

Abu Hurairah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) had a similar plight
His mother hated the prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) and would insult him
If this woman wasn't his mother, he would have killed her
But he went to prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) and cried over his plight
The prophet (Salallahu 'Alayhi wa sallam) made dua for her
She took shahadah
You must make baraa from your parents (ex-communicate them)

If they are insistent on their hatred towards Islam
You need to practice al walaa wal baraa
Question 2: So the sinful muslims have the qualities of the believer that you
have discussed?
Answer 2: A sinful Muslim can have some of these qualities

One of the qualities of a believer is that he believes in Jihad and practices
Have you heard about Abu Mahjan (radiyallahu ‘anhu), he was a sahabi
He had a weakness for alcohol
Although he was fierce on the battlefield
The commander of the army, Sa’ad ibn Abi Waqqas (radiyallahu ‘anhu),
Tied him up so he wouldn't go to battle with them
Sa’ad's wife (Sarah) set Abu Mahjan free to go and fight
He went to fight on Sa’ad’s horse
Sa’ad didn't recognise him because Abu Mahjan wore a niqab
Abu Mahjan was a lion on the battlefield sometimes fighting multiple kuffaar at a time
He had a weakness but loved Jihad
Many people have weaknesses

This is why the khawaarij are wrong to make takfir on the Muslims for their sins
The only time you can make takfir on a Muslim for his sin
Is if the sin was classified as kufr akbar (major kufr)
But as long as his sin didn't reach this level, you cannot make takfir on him
The Puritans went astray because they did not classify the knowledge
They paint all sins with the same brush,
We only make takfir for major kufr
To insult Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala), spy for the kufr
To practice black magic, make halal haram are all major kufr
But to smoke weed, or drink alcohol is minor kufr
When you don't classify the knowledge, you are a headless chicken
Question 3: Is it haraam to sell things with nationalistic flags on them?
Answer 3: This flag is haram if it is nationalistic

Especially if the country is killing Muslims
Like Bangladesh, Pakistan etc
Question 4: Can you highlight on voting in election coming up in UK, is it

shirk or major sin?
Answer 4: We don't believe in the ballot, we believe in the bullet

Because voting doesn’t get us anywhere
Some scholars say you can vote for the lessor of the evil in countries like the UK
All of the parties believe in gay marriages
When you vote for them, you uphold their manifesto
You should be thinking of hijrah and making plans to make hijrah
And not stay there and partake in the democratic process
Those who say we are allowed to participate in the democratic process have no evidence
Democracy is the greatest shirk because these MPs sit in the parliament and make laws
This is why you are not allowed to vote
Voting is a major sin not minor
Islam and Democracy are not the same thing,

Although the scholars in the UK told the masses that they are the same
Democracy is the religion of the Free Mason
Many Muslims are Free Masons without realising it
Question 5: Asalaaamu alaykum Shaikh, what is the best book on

methodology of calling to Islām Manḥāj al-Anbīyā fī ad-Da’wātil īla Allāh by
Rabī ibn Ḥādī al-Madkhalī.
Answer 5: I haven't read this book, but the Shaikh is a government scholar
Who is cementing the thrones of the apostate leaders
You are not allowed to take from this person
He is not even a Muslim, he is a madkahli
The Saudi regime is helping Iran to kill the Sunnis in Iraq
Yet they are fighting Iran in Yemen,
They are confused.com
When a person is a hypocrite he speaks with oxymorons

Oxymoron means two words that oppose each other
E.g. bad angel, bad blessing, Islamic Democracy
In democracy you are free to change your religion, but not in Islam
JINN SAYS ARAB PRESIDENTS ARE WITH THE SHAYATEEN AND THEY SACRIFICE FOR THEM,
EVEN BABIES (SKIP TO 10:40): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ln8r1yWkQA
Ibn Taymiyyah (rh) said: “And it is known from the religion (of Islam) by necessity and by
the consensus of all Muslims that whoever legalizes to follow other than the religion of
Islam or a Shariah other than the Shariah of Muhammad (SAW), he is a Kaafir. And his kufr
is similar to that of the one who believes in some part of the book (Quran) and reject some
of it.” [Majmua al-Fataawa (28/524)]
"A scholar who abandons what has learnt from the Quran and the Sunnah and follows a ruler
who does not rule in accordance with the teaching of Allah and His Messenger is an apostate
and a disbeliever who deserves punishment in this world and in the hereafter " Fatawa Ibn
Taymiyyah, Volume 35/373
In the Muslim world today, many have the wrong aqeeda
These two fatwas will teach them that you have to make takfir on the leaders
And the scholar who supports the leader
Question 6: Assalama Alaikum Sheikh, If a person doesn't pray can you make
takfir on them for doing minor kufr things?
Answer 6: Anybody who doesn't pray is outside of the fold of Islam because of 9:11
But if they repent, perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) and give Zakat, then they are your
brethren in religion. (In this way) We explain the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons,
signs, revelations, etc.) in detail for a people who know. (At-Tawbah 9:11)
If a person doesn't pray some salah he is still a Muslim

But if he abandons it totally, he is a kaafir
You cannot make takfir for minor kufr, the khawaarij do that
You are only allowed to make takfir for major kufr
When you make takfir, it has to be for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Not for your own desires
Question 8: Salamalaikum, in Ghana, Muslims go to the taghoot courts, do

you recommend darool uloom in South Africa? And there are some Muslims
who marry white women to get visa, is that permissible?
Answer 8: It is haram to go to a kaafir court house for judgement

Because of 4:60
Have you seen those (hyprocrites) who claim that they believe in that which has been sent
down to you, and that which was sent down before you, and they wish to go for judgement
(in their disputes) to the Tāghût (false judges, etc.) while they have been ordered to reject
them. But Shaitān (Satan) wishes to lead them far astray. (An-Nisa 4:60)
While 'Allama al-Shinqiti-May Allah be merciful with him-has said: To commit shirk with
Allah in judging is of the same meaning as to commit shirk in His worship, there is no
difference between the two in any manner. There is no difference in any sense between he
who follows a system (nizam) other than Allah's system or law other than Allah's law
(sharia) and he who worships an idol or prostrates to a false god. They are the same and
both are polytheists [associating others] with Allah. [Adwa' al-Bayan, (7/162)]
He passed this fatwa because tawheed hakimiyyah is the twin half of tawheed ibada
Muhammad Ibrahim [the shaikh of bin Baaz] said, "Tawheed haakimiyya is the twin half of
tawheed Ibaada." [Tahkeem al Qawaneen Page 6]
Marrying a kafir woman for visa:
I've seen this many times in the UK

They marry black and white women in Canada and the US as well
The problem is they have kids with these women and the kids are brought up as kuffaar
This is the most painful thing for the Muslim parent
This is not a proper behavior because your progeny is sacred
You have six sacred things: your life, wealth, honor, lineage, intellect and deen
Because of these 6 things, you are not allowed to marry these women
You should only marry Muslim girls
‘Umar said to him: ‘Divorce her.’ (Hudhayfah) said: ‘Do you bear witness that she is haraam?’
He said: ‘She is a live coal, divorce her.’ He said: ‘Do you bear witness that she is haraam?’
He said: ‘She is a live coal.’ He said: ‘I know that she is a live coal, but she is permissible for
me.’ A while later, he divorced her and it was said to him: ‘Why did you not divorce her when
‘Umar commanded you to?’ He said: ‘I did not want the people to think that I had done
something wrong (by marrying her).’ Perhaps he was fond of her or perhaps they had a child
together so he was fond of her.” Al-Mughni, 7/99
Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) was afraid he might end up with a floozy

And hence he told him to divorce her
You are only allowed to marry Christian girls if there are no Muslim girls available
Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullah) said when you live in Dar harb, it will destroy you
Darool uloom in South Africa are deobandi

They say Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is everywhere
And they believe in democracy
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is everywhere with His knowledge but not His Person
Why do the tableeqi jamaa say Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is everywhere?
Because they are a sufi order
Every sufi believes Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is everywhere
Why? Because they believe in wahdatul wujood (union)
They believe a man can become so pious until he becomes Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala)
Uniting with Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) as One
The whole purpose of practicing sufism is for wahdatul wujood
They believe they don't have to pray anymore when they become one with Allah
Every Sufi believes this
If they believe Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is above His Arsh,
The union cannot take place
They call themselves Hanifis

But Abu Hanifa (rahimahullah) used to make takfir on anyone who doesn't believe Allah is
above His Arsh
Abu Haneefah (rh) said, when asked of his opinion of the one who says, ‘I do not know
whether Allah is above the heavens or on the earth.’ - “He has disbelieved, because Allah
says, “The Most Merciful rose above the Throne,” and His Throne is above His seven
heavens.’ He was then asked , ‘what if he said that Allah is above His Throne but he does not
know whether the Throne is in the heavens or on the earth?’ He said, ‘He has disbelieved,
because He has denied that He is above the heavens, And whosoever denied that He is above
the heavens has disbelieved.” (‘Sharh Usul I'tiqaad Ahlus Sunnah’ of al-Laalikaaee
(d.414AH), ‘al-Uluww’ of adh- Dhahabee, also ‘Sharh Aqueedah at-Tahaawiyyah’ of ibn Abee
al-Izz al-Hanafee)
Abu Hanifa says you are a kaafir, if you don't know where Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is,
You have to believe Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is above the arsh
And the arsh is above the 7 heavens
We don't believe Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is in heaven
Are you a Christian?
Only Christians say Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is in heaven
Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) doesn't dwell inside His creation
Question 7: What is the situation of a muslim country with an Islamic

constitution but it’s not a khilafah system and its laws are based on the
Quran and Sunnah?
Answer 7: This system is legitimate because it is based on Quran and Sunnah
Question 8: Abu Baraa (hafidhahullah) was debating a brother about the

legitimacy of the Khilafah. He tried to say the caliph is in hiding so it is not
legitimate. This is weak fiqhul waqi, I believe he doesn’t expose his location
because drones are all over the Muslim world. Could you elaborate in refuting
this claim?
Answer 8: The reason why the caliph (hafidhahullah) doesn't make himself visible
Is because of security reasons
A Swiss aid worker used his smart phone to tweet where the mujahideen were hiding
War is deception
Not everyone who says he is an aid worker is an aid worker

KUFR IN PERSPECTIVE :: THE 25 THINGS THAT MAKE YOU A KAAFIR

- Allah said don’t die unless you die as a Muslim
- this topic is very important
- but before we can discuss WHO is a kaafir,
- we need to discuss why we need to know
and die not except in a state of Islam (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allah. (Aali Imran
3:102)
- it’s important to know who is Muslim and who is a kaafir

- to call someone a kaafir is called tafkir
- there is a difference between takfeer and Khawarijj
- Khawarijj will make tafkir on you and then kill you
- Takfiri just make tafkir on someone who is NOT a kaafir
KHAWARIJJ'S CHARACTERISTIC
- a Khawarijj kills for his belief
- they kill Muslims and leave the kuffaar alone
- they point fingers
- they even spy for kuffaar and brag about it on TV
- they believe pointing fingers at others
- will divert situation away from them
..the Prophet said, "Out of the offspring of this man, there will be people who will recite the Quran
but it will not go beyond their throats, and they will go out of Islam as an arrow goes out through
the game, and they will kill the Muslims and leave the idolaters. Should I live till they appear, I
would kill them as the Killing of the nation of 'Ad." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 9, Book 93, Hadith #527]
There are 10 reasons why we should know if someone is a Muslim or a kaafir::
1. A MUSLIM GIRL CAN'T MARRY A KAAFIR MAN

-if she commits zina w/ a kaafir, she is a Faasiq, not kaafir
-but if she marries him, she is a kaafir
-many of them do in Europe and America
-if she commits zina with a kaafir she is not a kaafir
-but if she Mary’s then she does
-because she is making a mockery
-how can a sheikh perform such a nikah
FARIA ALAM
www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faria_Alam
-feminist want this to be halal
-"faria alam" - Asian girl who committed zina w/ a kaafir in the UK
-marrying a kaafir makes you a kaafir
spent. That is the Judgment of Allah. He judges between you. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
- anybody who makes this halal,

- that person is making a mockery of Quran and Sunnah
- for you to be a kaafir all it takes is to reject one ayah
- even one word
- take you out the fold of Islam
- if you want to marry your kaafir boyfriend this is NOT allowed
- you CANNOT change Islam to fulfil your desires
- this ayah is clear
- if you have al walaa wal baraa, you won't fall in love w/ kaafir men
- Bollywood/Hollywood films destroy your al walaa wal baraa
- some women want to stand besides Hollywood actors

- and have their pictures taken w/ their statues
- how can they have al walaa wal baraa?
MILK SHAIKHS
-those who water down the deen
MUSLIM MEN WHO MARRY HINDU / SIKH GIRLS

-they are also kaafirs
-he can only marry Muslim, Jewish or Christian girls
-and only when a Muslim girl is unavailable
-only allowed when no Muslim can be found
-if can be found this isn’t allowed
Mu’awiyah
-he had a Christian wife and his character was assassinated
-they said she had an affair
-the Shiites wrote this in their history book
-having a Christian wife isn’t a good look
WHEN UMAR WAS THE CALIPH

- many of you did not know Allah used 'boyfriend'
- and 'girlfriend' in the Quran
(Lawful to you in marriage) are chaste women from the believers and chaste women from those
who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) before your time, when you have given their
due Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage),desiring chastity
(i.e. taking them in legal wedlock) not committing illegal sexual intercourse, nor taking them as
girl-friends.(Al-Ma'idah 5:5)
surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimûn (polytheists
and wrong¬doers and unjust). (Al-Ma'idah 5:51)
- you should always marry Muslim girls

- the Muslim women who are wearing hijab today ..
- weren’t wearing it before
- it was not required before but it's fardh now
- a lot of men marry for skin color
- and not aqeeda
- ones that don’t practise al walaa wal baraa
- kids from a kaafir marriage are bastard kids
- they can't lead the salah
- and it is very sinful
- a bastard kid can’t lead the salah
MUSLIM MAN CAN ONLY MARRY MUSLIM, CHRISTIAN, JEW

-(and only when Muslimahs are not available)
-same as we can eat pork only if we were dying from starvation
-it’s like eating pork .. it’s permissible in extreme circumstances
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Verily, my Salat (prayer), my sacrifice, my living, and my dying are for
Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). (Al-An'am 6:162)
- even when you get married it should be fisabilillah

- marry for chemistry, as well
- the person you marry should be someone that can help you enter paradise
- you should be attracted to them
- so you're physically attracted to the spouse
- the purpose of marriage is for jim3aa
- s-x is the only reason so we do not commit zina
- Shaikh told him that the purpose of marriage is for s-x
- to protect you from zina and also to lower your gaze
- the Rasul (saw) when you get married it helps you to lower your gaze
Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (RA) narrated : We went out with Allah’s Messenger (SAW) while we were
young men and we were unable to do anything (that is, not even afford marriage). He said, “O
Group of young men! It is incumbent that you marry for it protects the eye and the private parts.
So, he among you who cannot marry, let him fast, for, fasting dries up (lust)”. [Tirmidhi 1083,
Ahmed 4023, Bukhari 1905, Muslim 1400, Abu Dawud 2046, Nisai 3206, Ibn e Majah 1845]
2. KAAFIRS CANNOT INHERIT THE PROPERTY OF A MUSLIM

-a child will be disinherited if they are a kaafir
3. KAAFIRS CAN'T ENTER MAKKAH OR MADINAH

-some scholars go far as to say some
-should not be able to enter Arabian peninsula
-Sheikh bin Baz said a Christian maid
-should not be allowed in the country
ISLAMIC FATAWA REGARDING WOMEN:

- she may corrupt the country with her Christianity
http://books.google.com/books?id=REt__kZMvVAC&printsec=frontcover&vq=PPA242,M1#v=onepage&q
&f=false
4. KAAFIRS SHOULD NOT GAIN ACCESS TO THE STRATEGIC INFO OF THE ISLAMIC STATE
The Rasool Sending Sahabahs On A Mission :

-the Rasul told him do not open letter till you get to a certain spot
-he would give them a letter where they were going but said do not open it till later
Both Ibn Hisham's "Sirah " (under the title: Àbdullah ibn Jahsh's sariyyah) and Bihar al-Anwar
relate the same narration that the carrier of the letter was Àbdullah ibn Jahsh. It is said that the
Prophet (SAW) asked him to open the letter after two days' journey and do as it instructed, and he
did so and acted upon the Messenger of Allah's command. [Ibn Hisham, S'irah, Vol 1, p 601 and
Bihar al-Anwar, old edition, Vol 6, p 575]
5. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO KILL A MUSLIM FOR THE SAKE OF A KAAFIR
-Muslims pay blood money if they kill another Muslim [w/o just cause]
“A Muslim is not to be killed for a Kaafir (unbeliever)” [Ahmad, Bukhari, An-Nasa'i]
- the only time you can kill a Muslim when he kills another Muslim
- we only kill a Muslim if they killed another Muslim
- this is Shariah law
ISLAMIC LAW ON ADULTERY

- if a man had a wife and she died
- and then he slept with another woman WITHOUT A NIKAH
- this is ADULTERY, not fornication
- according to Sharia he committed adultery
- this is because we require NIKAH for s-x
- we don’t agree with the kuffaar
- 98:6 they were dismissed as worse of creatures
Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'an and Prophet Muhammad (Peace
be upon him)) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn
will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures. (Al-Baiyinah 98:6)
6. FOR THE SAKE OF AL WALAA WAL BARAA

- throughout history Muslims suffer for not practicing this
- if you have two stores one owned by Hindu one by Muslim ,
- what ever they may be selling .. there selling the same things
- but who will you buy from?
- why kind of a Muslim are you if you buy from the Hindu shop?
- instead of going to your own Muslim brother
O you who believe! Take not My enemies and your enemies (i.e. disbelievers and polytheists, etc.)
as friends, showing affection towards them, while they have disbelieved in what has come to you
of the truth (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, this Qur'an, and Muhammad SAW), and have driven out the
Messenger (Muhammad SAW) and yourselves (from your homeland) because you believe in Allah
your Lord! If you have come forth to strive in My Cause and to seek My Good Pleasure, (then take
not these disbelievers and polytheists, etc., as your friends). You show friendship to them in
secret, while I am All-Aware of what you conceal and what you reveal. And whosoever of you
(Muslims) does that, then indeed he has gone (far) astray, (away) from the Straight Path. (Al-
Mumtahinah 60:1)
MUSTA'SIM
-look what happened to him
-he did not practise al walaa wal baraa
-he had a Shiite as an advisor
-so when the Tartars plotted to invade Baghdad
-he was advised not to worry about the tartars
-the Tartars were fierce
-if he had al walaa wal baraa, he'd never have a Shiite working for him
-in 1258 AD, Genghis Khan invaded Baghdad and he was killed
-they used their horses to trample over the caliph with his two sons
-so Musta'sim was trampled by a horse to death (and 1 son)
-one of the sons they did not kill
-they took him back to marry him to one the local girls
-the accepted royalty
-he disappeared into thin air
MU’TASIM DEATH
- he would not have had a humiliating death
- if he did not refuse what Allah said
- this was such ridiculous advice
-we can not hire SHIITES to work for us, or any other kaafir
- how can you take advise from people outside your religion
- these people make up their OWN religion
SHIITES and BARELVIS and GOOFI SOOFIS and TALAFIS ...

- all these make up their own religion
- they will try to destroy you
- the Saudi Salafis call the mujahideen terrorist and brag about it
- the worse hatred is not racial, it is religious
- it only takes a spark to set of religious hatred

7. WE'RE TO TOPPLE THE LEADER IF WE SEE CLEAR KUFR

-so we need to know who he is
".....and not to fight against him unless we noticed him having open kufr (disbelief) for which we
would have a proof with us from Allah." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 9, Book 88, Number 178]
- there are people in the ummah today who are trying

- to change Islam for the apostate leaders
- they have set up a room on PalTalk AUTHENTIC SALAFEYYA
- these apostates they are supporting are falling one by one
- the majority of them are in the dustbin of history
APOSTATE REGIMES:
TUNISIA
EGYPT
LIBYA
SYRIA
-in Qatar, there's an army base training soldiers to topple Syria,

-as they did Libya
-Saudi Arabia is behind the plot
TRAINING TROOPS TO INVADE SYRIA:

MORE LINKS:
www.rt.com/usa/news/us-nato-syria-edmonds-709/
THESE SHIITE REGIMES MUST GO, such as IRAN

-those who got rid of the Jew, Ghadaffi,
-are training to topple Assad
-but first, a no fly zone must be established
-Bashar Assad is also a MAD dawg of the Middle East
HOUSE OF SAUD ...

-the Talafis says do not make tafkir on them,
-even if they dismantle the Shariah
-they require them to legitimize their kufr
-you have to withhold the tafkir
-if not, we're to with-hold the tafkir
-but this is NOT true
-they already have done this
-the House of Saud has already legitimized their kufr
-if you go Saudi you see American banks Holland banks etc
-because of their riba banks
-i.e if a Muslim ruler takes riba he is not a kaafir
-but if he issues a permit he becomes a kaafir
-so you can say to them that is proof
-this is how you check mate a Saudi Salafi
-we have seen the kufr of the leaders joining the UN
Verily, those who have turned back (have apostated) as disbelievers after the guidance has been
manifested to them, Shaitan (Satan) has beautified for them (their false hopes), and (Allah)
prolonged their term (age). (Muhammad 47:25)
This is because they said to those who hate what Allah has sent down: "We will obey you in part
of the matter," but Allah knows their secrets. (Muhammad 47:26)
- Allah tells you as soon as you join them you become a kaafir
- only organization you can join is an Islamic one
ILLUMINATI
- they are the elite of the FREE MASONS
YOU CAN ONLY JOIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF ISLAMIC STATES

- Iraq has five Muslim neighbours
- never under estimate how evil is a kuffaar
-the kuffaar put embargoes on children's food
MADELINE ALBRIGHT, SEC OF STATE OF US [Jew]

-she said that it was legit to starve the children in Iraq
- the UN is not in your favor
- the UN watched Muslim being massacred
Madeleine Albright Defends Mass-Murder of Iraqi

Children: www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4PgpbQfxgo
Srebrenica massacre:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srebrenica_massacre
-the UN is the worst kufr under the heavens

-when a munafiqh says to you .. you cannot make tafkir upon them
-we say when you join UN you become worst kaafir under the heavens
-they say they are the ultimate authority
-the Sauds give legitimacy to the UN as a governing body
-but Allah is the only Haakimiyyah
-they try and take Haakimiyyah away from Allah
-how can they even think they are still in the fold of Islam
-the moment you give bayah to them you become a kaafir
-the reasons Muslims did not no this was due
-to Muslims not even having a clue
SHAIKH IN THE UK
- he spoke about al walaa wal baraa and 7 conditions of Shahadah
- these people said we have never heard of this before
- they never hear KUFR BIT TAGHOOT
- to believe in Allah is never enough
- even Jehovah witness believe in Allah
- it's not enough to believe in Allah
- when you reject taghoot that’s when you become special
- you must DIE REJECTING TAGHOOT
- it is part of your Shahadah
- it is broken in parts :: negation is a part of it
- when a KAAFIR hates you
- he kills your kids
ANWAR AWLAKI
- the kuffaar killed him and his son
- but they lied about his son’s age and said he was 21 when he was really 16
By the heaven, holding the big stars. (Al-Buruj 85:1)
Allah said the kaafir king in Yemen he was a Jew .. he dumped the believers as well as their kids
And by the Promised Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); (Al-Buruj 85:2)
And by the witnessing day (i.e. Friday), and by the witnessed day [i.e. the day of 'Arafat (Hajj) the
ninth of Dhul-Hijjah]; (Al-Buruj 85:3)
-they have nothing against them other than LA ILAHA ILLALA
Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel, (Al-Buruj 85:5)
When they sat by it (fire), (Al-Buruj 85:6)
And they witnessed what they were doing against the believers (i.e. burning them). (Al-Buruj 85:7)
They had nothing against them, except that they believed in Allah, the All-Mighty, Worthy of all
Praise! (Al-Buruj 85:8)
TABLIGHI JAMMAH
- they don’t like to speak of democracy
- they say don’t call kaafir, 'kaafirs'
- because you don’t know what’s in their hearts
LA ILAHA ILLALA is the highest level of politics

WE BELIEVE IN SHARIAH, JIHAD AND KHILAFAH
- this means you don’t believe in false deity
- the king knew the meaning , this is why he dumped them
- part of Shahadah is to reject faith in the taghoot
- many Muslims die believing in false deities
FALSE DEITIES
CAPITALISM
DEMOCRAZY
SOCIALISM
-all the isms
- many of you believe in democracy
There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong
path. Whoever disbelieves in Taghoot and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most
trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. (Al-Baqarah 2:256)
- this ayah tells you to believe in Allah is not enough

- you HAVE to reject taghoot
Yahya bin Hisham from Yunus bin Abu Ishaq from his father reported that the Prophet said: "Your
leadership will be a reflection of you (the people)." [Mishkat]
- who are we suppose to believe YOU or the Rasul (saw)
"Two types of people from my Ummah, if they are good my people will be good: the leaders and
scholars." Silsilat Al Ahadith Addaeefa, Fabricated No.16
THE TARTARS
- al yaasiq is a book
- their concept of the Shariah was al yaasiq (the bible of the tartars,
- a cocktail of many religions)
So Whosoever abandons the wise Shariah which was revealed upon Muhammed ibn Abdullah, the
seal of the prophets, and goes to other abrogated Shariah for judgment, he becomes a Kaafir. So
how about the one who goes to al-Yaasiq (man-made law) for judgment and gives it precedence
(over the Sharia of Muhammed (saw). Whosoever does this has become a Kaafir by the Ijma of the
Muslims. Ibn Kathir, Al-Bidayah Wan-Nihayah, Vol 13, p119
- Ibn Kathir and Ibn Taymiyyah made tafkir upon them

- how can you say these scholars are your scholars and you follow them
- when Allah loves a person, He gives you understanding of the deen
Thus, it has become in his sons a followed law to which they have been giving precedence over
ruling by the book of Allah and the Sunnah of His messenger (SAW). Whoever does this is a Kaafir
who must be fought until he returns to the rule of Allah and His messenger. So no one other than
He should rule neither minorly or majorly". Tafseer Ibn Kathir, Vol 2, p.67
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (d. 728H): “Whenever a person makes halal what is haraam by
consensus or makes haraam what is halal by consensus or replaces the Sharee’ah that is agreed
upon by consensus, then he is a Kaafir by the agreement of the scholars of Fiqh.” – “Al-Fataawa”,
Vol. 3/267
If Allah desires good for someone He bestows on him understanding of the deen (Bukhari, Vol 9,
no 415)
ALLAH DOES NOT LOVE SHIAS WHO MAKE TAKFIR ON THE SAHABAHS
- if you’re a goofy Sufi Allah does not love you
- if your aqeeda is democracy Allah does not love you
- for you to say Rasul (saw) is alive in the grave Allah doesn’t love you
- if you don’t believe Allah is over the Arsh , Allah does not love you
IF YOU WANT ALLAH TO LOVE YOU

-BELIEVE HE IS OVER THE ARSH, BELIEVE ALL THE WORDS OF THE QURAN
- the Rasul (saw) said when Allah wants good for you he makes you understand properly
Bashar ul Assad
- is killing so many of his people
- these leaders are paving the way for Khilafah
"There shall be Prophethood (nubuwwa) among you for as long as Allah wishes it to be among
you. Then it shall be lifted up when Allah wishes to lift it up. Then there shall be successorship
(khilâfa) on the pattern (minhâj) of Prophetship for as long as Allah wishes it to be. Then it shall be
lifted up when Allah wishes to lift it up. Then there shall be a trying kingship (mulkan 'âddan) for
as long as Allah wishes it to be. Then it shall be lifted up when Allah wishes to lift it up. Then there
shall be a tyrannical kingship (mulkan jabriyyatan) for as long as Allah wishes it to be. Then it
shall be lifted up when Allah wishes to lift it up. Then there shall be successorship on the pattern
of Prophetship."
Narrated from Hudhaifa by Ahmad with a sound chain as stated by al-Zayn in the Musnad (14:163
#18319) and as indicated by al-Haythami (5:188-189)
WE ARE LIVING IN THE LAST DAYS / THE WORST PERIOD IN ISLAM

- you are living under the worse period right now
- and steal the wealth of the ummah
- and they help the crusaders
- NO AL WALA WAL BARAA
- we are living in the worse times
- it shall be lifted when Allah wills
KHILAFAH WILL COME BACK

- the Khilafah will come back
- these leaders are paving the way
- this is not a weak Hadith
8. WHEN THERE IS A JIHAD, WE NEED TO KNOW WHO TO KILL

-we do not want to kill our own ummah
9.WHEN A KAAFIR DIES YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO WASH OR PRAY OVER HIM
-JANAZAH is only for Muslims
And never (O Muhammad SAW) pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor
stand at his grave. Certainly they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and died while they
were Fasiqûn (rebellious, - disobedient to Allah and His Messenger SAW). (At-Tawbah 9:84)
10. WE'RE NOT TO BURY THEM w/ OTHER MUSLIMS

- Muslims cant be buried in the graves of kaafirs
- why do you think the 4 caliphs burnt the bodies if homo sexuals
- how can a family member claim his body?

13 Important Questions & Answers
about Zakat al Fitr
Bismallah Alhamdulillah wasalat wasalamu ala rasool elllah Ama Ba3ed:
May allah subhanahu watala allow this to be for his and his sake only and may Muslims
benefit from it.
Gathered questions and answers regarding Zakat al Fitr:
1. What is zakat al fitr?
Zakat Al fiter is a charity given at the end of Ramadan or the morning of the Eid Alfiter.
It was named zakat al fitr because it's to be given when Muslims break their fast at the end
of Ramadan.
2. When was Zakat Alfitr ordained?
It seems that it was ordained the same time Ramadan was ordained in the 2nd year of the
hijra, because it's part of Ramadan, and we know not of any Ramadan the sahabah radia
Allahu Anhum fasted in which they did not give zakat Elfitr in.
3. Is this an ordain or a sunnah?
It is an "ordain" and a "must" without any doubt.
The prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam said in a hadith under the chain of Ibn Umar radia
allah anh in both Bukhari and Muslim "The Prophet ordained zakat al fitr sa3 of dates or sa3
of wheat"
The hadith is clear in stating the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam "ordained".
-Imam Ibn Al munther and others reported ijma (meaning consensus) and no dispute
among scholars on this matter except by the hanafi madhab which believe its a wajib and
not fard, just a dispute in terms used but the end result is that all scholars believe its an
ordain.
-It’s also said that the verse "He is successful who groweth" 87:14 means zakat alfitr.
4. What’s the wisdom behind ordaining such a charity?
a. Purification of those who fasted from excessive gossip, evil talk, and backbiting which
people constantly fall into. So the charity is a purification and forgiveness for that.
Ibn Abbas radia allah anhuma clearly informed us the purpose behind ordaining this charity
when he said :(The Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam ordered zakat alfiter purification for
one who fasts from gossip and excessive talk during fasting as well as a charity for the
poor). The hadith is Narrated in Sunan Abu dawoud, Ibn Majah, Aldarqutny, and Alhakem
who said its authentic.
b. To help the poor so that eid will not come upon anyone needy or begging, and so they
may enjoin the Muslims in their happiness and celebrations.
The Prophet sallah Allahu alieh wasalam said:(Keep them from going around begging this
day), meaning give that charity so they will not go beg but rather enjoy this eid, be happy
in it and place a smile on their faces.
5. What types of food do we give in charity for zakat alfitr?
You may give sa3 of dates, wheat, raisins, which are mentioned in hadith abusaeed in both
bukhari and Muslim.
Scholars such as Ibn Taimieh said you can give that which is of the common food of the
people of that time like some of the sahabah did.
6. I would like to give chocolate or coffee instead of wheat or rice?
What you give must be something one can survive from.
Equivalent to wheat for example would be rice, biryani or anything of its likes.
7. How much food in charity do I give?
We mentioned the term "sa3" many times. That is one of the means they used to weigh
food during the Prophets time Sallah allahu alieh wasalam.
"sa3" would be to fill average hands combined together 4 times.
A "sa3" is equivalent to (2.5 to 3) Kilograms or (5.5 to 6.5) pounds.
8. I do not want to give food as charity but rather give money equivalent to that amount of
food, can I do that?
Note: To give a masjid, charity organization, a relative or someone you trust cash and
currency to buy the food and give it for you is permissible because that is tawkeel.
Giving a charity, masjid, relative, or a poor cash currency instead of the categories of foods
we mentioned is disputed and here is the breakdown:
1. The GREAT VAST majority of the ulama and imams is that it is NOT permitted for you to
give zakat alfiter in currency but rather it MUST be given as food.
-Imam Ahmad rahimahu allah said: (I'm afraid it will not be accepted as zakat Alfitr)
-This is also the madhab of the great two Imams Malik and Shafey rahimahum allah.
-Imam Ibn Hazem Rahimahu Allah said:(It will not be accepted because that is what the
Prophet Sallah Allahu Alieh waslam ordained).
Basically the Proof is that the Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam ordered in all the hadith
that food be given. And we all know that the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam was given
"jawame3 alkalem" which means eloquent and precise wording and phrasing; meaning he
could have said give sa3 of food or something equivalent to that of gold and silver (dinar
and dirham) which was known at that time yet he did not say that so we should stick to
what he said.
2. Imam Abu Hanifa and Atta' rahimahum allah said it is accepted to give zakat alfitr in
Cash rather than food.
The proof for the second camp is that they resorted to the purpose of zakat elfitr which is to
keep the poor from asking, and whatever keeps them from asking whether it may be food
or currency is accepted.
Also, they said poor people may take the food and re-sell it for cheaper than it’s worth to
get the currency so they end up not benefiting from the entire sa3 of food nor do they get
it's equivalent in currency.
I do find it important to stress how strong the first opinion is because their basis is strong in
stating that the Prophet sallah Allahu alieh wasalam mentioned categories of food and not
currency which they had, and which other charities like zakat almal must be given in.
This is a special zakat that should be given in the special way we were told to give it,
namely food like the Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam did, and more so all generations of
the sahabah gave in food, not a single sahabah was known to have given currency instead
of food.
*I presented both scholarly opinions and alhamdulillah this is a fikh issue of Islam which we
can all get along with each other even if we disagree and it should not cause ill and hard
feelings in our communities and masjids, especially in times like eid. We say like the pious
previous imams mentioned in matters of dispute similar to this (Our opinion is correct which
has the possibility of error in it, and our brothers are incorrect but it has the possibility of
being correct).
9. Who must give Zakat Alfitr?
Every single Muslim male and female, child or elder, poor or rich.
-The poor who must give are those who can spare a sa3 on themselves and those they are
entrusted to support unless they will sleep hungry the night of eid if zakat alfitr is given.
-The man of the household is in charge of giving zakat alfiter on himself and those he is
required to financially support starting with himself, his wife, his children, his mother then
his father and the rest of those he spends and cares for.
- Hadith Ibn Umar in both Bukhari and Muslims said (The prophet sallah allahu alieh
wasalam ordered zakat el fiter in Ramadan on the free and on the salve, on the male and
the female, on the young and the elder of the Muslims).
-In Hadith Tha3labah Ibn Aby Suer it’s similar to the previous hadith with the addition of (..
as well as every rich or poor Muslim, the rich allah will purify them, and the poor allah will
return upon them more than that which they give). The hadith is in Aldarkutny.
-Some sahabah even said the parents should give for the infant in his mothers womb but
did not say it was ordained to do so.
10. Who do I give it to?
The people you give this kind of zakah are categorized in a verse in the koran: (The alms
are only for the poor and the needy, and those who collect them, and those whose hearts
are to be reconciled, and to free the captives and the debtors, and for the cause of Allah,
and (for) the wayfarer; a duty imposed by Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise.) 9:60.
The most category that should be given priority out of all those categories for zakat el fitr in
particular are the (poor and needy) because the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam told us
the purpose was to fulfill their needs from asking that day.
11. I have relatives who are poor can I give them my zakat?
Yes, relatives who you are not REQUIRED to financially support and are poor deserve your
zakah...
Those you are required to support are like the wife, and children.
A daughter who is married is not of the category that your required to support, therefore
you may give the zakat to her if she is in need.
12. When do I give zakat el fitr?
It becomes an ordain upon you the night before the eid.
It can be given the night before the eid or two nights before that.
The BEST time to give it however, is just before the prayer of the eid.
-In Hadith Ibn Umar in the Bukhari and one similar in saheeh Muslim he said (and for it to
be given before people begin heading for the prayer of the eid).
- Ibn Aby Shiabah narrated that Ibn Abbas said (from the sunnah is that zakat elfiter to be
given before prayer)
-If it is given a day or two or even three before the eid it is permissible inshallah as Imam
Alkharky said. Anything over that is not proper nor acceptable (as zakat elfitr) but will be
considered a regular charity because it is so far from eid it no longer is attributed to eid
(alfitr).
-You may give the zakah in currency to someone early in Ramadan or anytime before that
on the condition that they carry the task of physically purchasing the food and giving the
zakah to the poor a few days before eid.
-You may also give the food to someone you trust days or weeks before the eid on the
condition that it be given to the poor a few nights before the eid.
13. I live in the USA can I give my zakat in Palestine, Pakistan or India?
Zakat elfiter and Zakat al mal, should be given in the area you are a residing in the time eid
occurs, unless there is an extreme circumstance that deprives you from that or there is no
poor people in your area.
May allah subhanahu walatala accept our praying and fasting and allow us to be among
those freed from hellfire.

(Al-'Alaq 96:16)
(3) Did you know the Holy Qur'an states that there are 2 sets of water in the sea, the salt and the
fresh. They meet but they dont mix with each other because between them there's a barzakh
(barrier). Yet another scientific fact in the Qur'an. See Surah 55: 19-22
He has let loosed the two seas (the salt water and the sweet) meeting together. Between
them is a barrier which none of them can transgress. Out of them both come out pearl and
coral.
(Ar-Rahman 55:19-22)

a sign for mankind and his body was found in 1897 intact after lying on the ocean's floor for some

So this day We shall deliver your (dead) body (out from the sea) that you may be a sign to

(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs , revelations, etc.).
(Yunus 10:92)

creatures of all kinds. And We send down water (rain) from the sky, and We cause (plants)
of every goodly kind to grow therein.
(Luqman 31:10)
(devil) Did you know Iblis was the 1st racist hence he refused to bow down to Adam claiming fire is better
than clay? See Surah 7:12

created from clay."
(Al-A'raf 7:12)
(7) Did you know the 1st of Allah's creation to use Qiyaas were the angels so they asked Allah will
you put on earth who will spread mischief and shed blood. The angels compared man to jinn and

And (remember) when your Lord said to the angels: "Verily, I am going to place (mankind)
generations after generations on earth." They said: "Will You place therein those who will
make mischief therein and shed blood, - while we glorify You with praises and thanks

the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on
the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great
torment is theirs in the Hereafter.
(Al-Ma'idah 5:33)
(10) Did you know the 1st Mu'tazila (rationalist) was iblis because he refused to bow down to
Adam claiming he's not intellectually convinced? See Surah 15:33

has mercy." And a wave came in between them, so he (the son) was among the drowned.

(13) Did u know 2 prophets had kafir wives, Nuh and Lut ? See Surah 66:10
Allah sets forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Nuh (Noah) and the wife of
Lout (Lot). They were under two of our righteous slaves, but they both betrayed their (husbands
by rejecting their doctrine) so they [Nuh (Noah) and Lout (Lot)] benefited them (their respective
wives) not, against Allah, and it was said: "Enter the Fire along with those who enter!"
(At-Tahrim 66:10)
(14) Did you know the Pharaoh took his Shahadah before he died but Allah threw it back in his
face like a dirty rag and didnt accept it? See Surah 10:90-91

them in oppression and enmity, till when drowning overtook him, he said: "I believe that La ilaha

the Irresistible? "You do not worship besides Him but only names which you have named
(forged), you and your fathers, for which Allah has sent down no authority. The command
(or the judgement) is for none but Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him
(i.e. His Monotheism), that is the (true) straight religion, but most men know not.
(Yusuf 12:39-40)
(17) Did you know the Qur'an states that the plot of women is great however the plot of the shaitan
is weak? See Surah 12:28 and Surah 4:76
So when he (her husband) saw his [(Yusuf's (Joseph)] shirt torn at the back; (her husband)
said: "Surely, it is a plot of you women! Certainly mighty is your plot!
(Yusuf 12:28)
Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause
of Taghut (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitan (Satan); Ever feeble
indeed is the plot of Shaitan (Satan).
(An-Nisa 4:76)

Merciful.
(Ya-Sin 36:58)
(19) Did you know Allah has 2 Hands but they are not like our hands? See Surah 38:75
(Allah) said: "O Iblis (Satan)! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to one whom I
have created with Both My Hands. Are you too proud (to fall prostrate to Adam) or are you
one of the high exalted?"
(Saad 38:75)
(20) Did you know Allah created 4 things with His 2 Hands? See Hadith
Mujahid narrated Abdullah ibn Umar (RA) said: “Allah created four things with His Hand; 1.
The Throne 2. The Pen 3. Aadam and 4. The paradise of ‘Adn. He then said to the rest of the
creation ‘Kun’ [Be] and it was.”
[Adh Dhahabi in ‘Mukhtasar al-‘Uluw’ (p105), Abu al-Shaikh al-Asbahani in 'al-‘Adhuma'

(5/1555), Tafsir al-Tabari (21/239), ‘The chain is authentic according to the conditions of
Muslim.’]
(21) Did you know the holy Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said his Ummah will not give up 4
things from Jahilia? See Hadith
Abu Malik al-Ashari narrated the Prophet (SAW) said: ”There are four matters of jaahiliyyah
that exist among my ummah and they will not give them up: boasting about one’s
forefathers, casting aspersions upon people’s lineages, seeking rain by the stars and wailing
for the dead.”
[Sahih Muslim (Vol. 2 pg. 644) No. 934]
(22) Did you know the people of Yunus were the only nation to come to Allah when they saw His
wrath coming? See Surah 10:98
Was there any town (community) that believed (after seeing the punishment), and its Faith
(at that moment) saved it (from the punishment)? (The answer is none,) - except the people
of Yunus (Jonah); when they believed, We removed from them the torment of disgrace in
the life of the (present) world, and permitted them to enjoy for a while.
(Yunus 10:98)
(23) Did you know Abraham will be the first to be clothed on the Day of Judgement? See Hadith
Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) stood up to deliver admonition. He
said, “O people, you will be assembled before Allah naked, and uncircumcised.” Then he
recited: "As we originated the first creation so We shall restore it." (21:104) He said “The
first one who will be clothed on the Day of Resurrection will be Ibrahim.
[Tirmidhi 3178, Ahmed 1950, Bukhari 3319, Muslim 2869, Nisai 2083]
(24) Did you know that Hadith is Wahy (revelation)? See Surah 53:3-4
Nor does he speak of (his own) desire. It is only an Inspiration that is inspired.
(An-Najm 53:3-4)
(25) Did you know the people of Jannah will be 33 years old? See Hadith
Mu’az ibn Jabal (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, "The deserving will enter
Paradise hairless and beardless, their eyes as though collyrium was applied to them, (and
their ages) thirty or thirty-three years.”
(26) Did you know there is no body hair in Jannah? See Hadith
Mu’az ibn Jabal (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, "The deserving will enter
Paradise hairless and beardless, their eyes as though collyrium was applied to them, (and
their ages) thirty or thirty-three years.”

Raising the Hands During Jumuah Khutbah for Duaa’
By Ahmad Musa Jibril
Raising hands in general duaa is sunnah with many hadith to support that and it is
among the etiquette of duaa in showing humility to Allah subhanu watala.
Alnawawi said: (The ahadeeth on the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam raising his
hands in duaa’ is more than what can be counted and I have compiled thirty hadith on
that from Bukhari and Muslim alone).
There is an exception in raising hands in duaa’ and that is where there is proof from
the action of the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam that he did not do it in
particular matters of worship such as during Jummah Khutbah.
The correct opinion is neither the imam nor the followers raise their hands in duaa’.
‫" ﻟﻘﺪ‬،‫ ﻗﺒﱠﺢ ﷲ ھﺎﺗﯿﻦ اﻟﯿﺪﯾﻦ‬:‫أﺧﺮج ﻣﺴﻠﻢ رﺣﻤﮫ ﷲ ﻋﻦ ﻋﻤﺎرة ﺑﻦ رؤﯾﺒﺔ أﻧﱠﮫ رأى ﺑﺸﺮ ﺑﻦ ﻣﺮوان راﻓﻌﺎ ً ﯾﺪﯾﮫ ﻋﻠﻰ اﻟﻤﻨﺒﺮ ﻓﻘﺎل‬
‫ ﻗﺎل اﻟﻨﻮوي ﻓﯿﮫ ﱠ‬."‫ وأﺷﺎر ﺑﺄﺻﺒﻌﮫ اﻟﻤﺴﺒِّﺤﺔ‬:‫رأﯾﺖ رﺳﻮل ﷲ ﺻﻠﱠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﮫ وﺳﻠﻢ ﻣﺎ ﯾﺰﯾﺪ ﻋﻠﻰ أن ﯾﻘﻮل ﺑﯿﺪه ھﻜﺬا‬
‫أن اﻟﺴﻨﱠﺔ أﻻ‬
‫ﯾﺮﻓﻊ اﻟﯿﺪ ﻓﻲ اﻟﺨﻄﺒﺔ‬
Muslim narrated that Umarah bin Ruai’bah seen one of the leaders of bany umaiah
raising his hands on the pulpit and he said (May Allah disgrace those two hands. I seen
the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam on the pulpit and he never did more than this
(meaning he raised his index finger).
Al Nawawi commenting on this hadith said: (The sunnah is not to raise the hands
during the khutbah).
‫ ﻟﻢ ﯾﻜﻦ اﻟﻨﺒﻲ ﺻﻠﻰ ﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﮫ وﺳﻠﻢ ﯾﺮﻓﻊ ﯾﺪﯾﮫ ﻓﻲ ﺷﻲء ﻣﻦ دﻋﺎﺋﮫ إﻻ ﻓﻲ‬:‫وﻓﻲ )اﻟﺼﺤﯿﺤﯿﻦ( ﻣﻦ ﺣﺪﯾﺚ أﻧﺲ رﺿﻲ ﷲ ﻋﻨﮫ‬
‫اﻻﺳﺘﺴﻘﺎء‬
Anas Radia Allahu Anh narrated in Bukhari and Muslim that the prophet sallah allahu
alieh wasalm never raised his hands in any duaa’ other than istiskaa (Duaa’ for rain).
Ibn Hajar and others mentioned that Anas radia Allahu Anh did not mean in (ALL of
duaa’) as his statement may appear, but rather only in specific situations. In clearer
terms, Anas radia Allahu anh meant that he, sallah allahu alieh wasalam, did not raise
his hands on the pulpit except in Istiskaa (rain-seeking) prayers. Even though he did
not mention on the pulpit, that’s definitely what he meant because there are so many
hadith on raising ones hands in general duaa’. There is no way that could have went
unnoticed by a companion who so long served and followed the prophet Muhammad
Sallah Allahu alieh wasalam.
Therefore, it is not in compliance with sunnah to raise the hands in supplication

during jummah for the imam or for the followers.
Jummah is ibadah, just like duaa is ibadah.. it’s a ibadah within a ibadah…
We don’t raise our hands in salah, in circumbulating the ka’bah, or running in safah
and marwah, even though we make duaa’ in those ibadah. Likewise, due to the fact
that the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam did not raise his hands during jummah,
we follow in his footsteps and also not raise our hands.
Rasing the hands within a ibadah (circumumbulating the kaa’bah, during jummah, or
during salah) is an additional move within a worship that needs proof. That’s why the
scholars said it was wrong to raise the hands during jummah.
The prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam remained preaching on the pulpit for ten
years and we don’t have a single authentic narration that he raised his hand in a
single jummah. The sahabah were specific in narrating to us his moves. He, sallah
allah alieh wasalam, did istiskaa (rain-seeking) prayers a few times during his life yet
prayed nearly every jummah for ten years. For istiskaaa, they narrated to us that he
raised his hands to the point the whiteness under his armpits show, yet did not
narrate the same about jummah.
In fact, they were so specific in narrating his moves during jummah that they narrated
he never raised but his index finger while on the pulpit and nothing else.
This shows who in reality follows the sunnah. We raise our hands on the pulpit during
istiskaa and we do not raise our hands during jummah khutbah. The Prophet sallah
allahu alieh wasalam did it in one scenario and one scenario only which was for
istiskaa.
As to those who make a distinction between the imam and followers that say the
imam does not raise his hands but the followers do:
The respose to that aspect is that in that in analogy (‫ )ﻗﯿﺎس ﻣﻊ ﻧﻔﻲ اﻟﻔﺎرق‬where there is no
difference in the situation, setting or circumstance between the two, the same ruling
applies. The follower is like the imam because there is no distinguishing factor
between the two in qiyas.
Ibn Taimieh said in the Fatawa: (It is disliked for an imam to raise his hands in
khutbah; and it is the correct of two opinions of the Hanbaly mathab because the
prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam used to point with his finger when he makes duaa
(Istiskaa being the exception to the raising of ones hands on the pulpit).
The Ummah Is Not Dead
“The Ummah is not Dead” by Ustad Abdul Hadee
Download
Bismillah
Allah has blessed the ummah of rasul (saw)

--He gave us great people like Abu-Bakr, Omar, and Imam Anwar etc.
--why is it that these people do what they do
--this is because Allah said in His Qur’an;
And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and
then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and
does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims." (Fussilat 41:33)
We have seen that not only are the kuffar attacking us or occupying our land
--they are imprisoning and killing our scholars
--But the only regret these scholars have is that
--Allah did not take more of their flesh for His sake
--we have many Munāfiqûn who call for occupation of our land
(Sayyidina Abdullah Ibn Mas’ud (RA) was asked to explain the verse: Think not of those who were
slain in Allah’s way as dead. Nay, they are alive. (3:169) He said, “Indeed we had asked about that
and were informed that their souls are in green birds that go wherever they like in Paradise and
return to the lamps suspended from the Throne. Your Lord looks at them out of familiarity and
asks, ‘Do you desire anything more that I may give more?’ They say, ‘Our Lords what more may
we seek while we are in Paradise moving about wherever we will?’ He then looks at them a second
time, saying, ‘Do you desire Me to add something for you that I should give more?’ When they see
that thay will not be spared (till they ask), they desire, ‘Return our souls to our bodies that we may
go back to earth and be slain in Your path once more.." [Muslim 4651, Abu Dawud 2514, Tirmidhi
3022, Ibn e Majah 2800]
They have gathered together against the ummah of haqq

--Allah said the kuffar will never be satisfied with us until we apostate from our deen
--and follow them
--we see the kuffar gather together to attack and assassinate Imam Awlaki
--because he was someone who called to Allah
--because he had the correct manhaj
Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) till
you follow their religion....(Al-Baqarah 2:120)
We have 2 types of scholars
1. Those that call to the truth and are proud to call to it and its civilization
--they are never apologetic to this
--this is how we are supposed to be with our niqab and beard etc.
--they don’t appease the kuffar and they are proud of their deen
--the kuffar attack our deen and our RASUL (saw)

--but we are proud and not ashamed of our RASUL (saw)
Others say to us ‘in your religion it calls for terrorism and killing people’
--‘it calls to marrying many wives’
--we say to them you liars- we are implementing Allah’s ruling on earth
--we say yes because it is Allah that sent it and it is protecting us
--from all your filthy vices you are suffering from
--whichever aspect of our deen we should never be ashamed to accept it in front of the kuffar
Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur'ān) and surely, We will guard it
(from corruption). (Al-Hijr 15:9)
Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of
all praise (Allah). (Fussilat 41:42)
2. Those that are full of pride and are ashamed of their deen
--these people will tell you piety is in the heart and not manifested
--they are lying emaan is both in the heart and manifestation by actions
--they are people of humiliation because they are ashamed of their ulama
Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Iman
has some sixty or seventy branches, the best of which is the declaration that, ‘None has the right
to be worshipped but Allah’, and the least of which is the removal of harmful objects from the
road, and modesty is a branch of Iman.” [Sahih Bukhari]
And on the authority of Wabisa bin Mabad, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: I came to the
messenger of Allah and he said: "You have come to ask about righteousness?”. I said:" Yes." He
said: "Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the soul feels tranquil and the heart
feels tranquil, and wrongdoing is that which wavers in the soul and moves to and from in the
breast even though people again and again have given you their legal opinion [in its favor]."
[Ahmed and Al-Darimi, with a good chain of authorities]
--we need to realize that there is a conflict

--they have betrayed us in many aspects like free mixing, imitating the kuffar,
--following UN resolutions and going to the clubs etc.
But we have to realize that the rasul (saw) never gave up to the kuffar, he never appeased them
Say (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)to these Mushrikûn and Kafirûn): "O Al-Kafirûn
(disbelievers in Allah, in His Oneness, in His Angels, in His Books, in His Messengers, in the Day
of Resurrection, and in Al-Qadar, etc.)! (Al-Kafirun 109:1)
"I worship not that which you worship, (Al-Kafirun 109:2)
"Nor will you worship that which I worship. (Al-Kafirun 109:3)
"And I shall not worship that which you are worshipping. (Al-Kafirun 109:4)
"Nor will you worship that which I worship. (Al-Kafirun 109:5)
"To you be your religion, and to me my religion (Islamic Monotheism)." (Al-Kafirun 109:6)
--the first thing the kuffar did was to kill 1800 ulama
--and the people that involved in their tariika never came out to defend these people
--the scholars are those that follow the rasul (saw)'s path
--the ulama of haqq never followed the kuffar but they called man
--from the darkness of kufr to the nur of Islam
--that is why most of our scholars are imprisoned or killed
“The scholars are the inheritors of the prophets.” [Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Nasa’i, Ibn Maja, Ahmad,
Ibn Hibban]
We lost Sheikh Anwar Awlaki and tomorrow it may be others

--because all these people call to the haqq and only the haqq
--and yet we are not ready to protect our ulama
--Prophet Yahya (as) was killed for the same purpose
--we have to pray and support our ulama
Sayyidina Abdullah ibn Amr ibn Al-Aas (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Allah
will not take away knowledge from the people all at once. But, he will take away knowledge by
taking away the ulama (one by one) till no scholar survives. The people will take the ignorant for
leaders and will ask them and they will issue verdicts without knowledge, going astray
(themselves) and leading (others) astray.” [Ahmed 6521, Bukhari 100, Muslim 2673, Tirmidhi 2661,
Ibn e Majah 52]
The rasul (saw) said the believers are one and supporters of each other
The Messenger of Allah (saw) also said, "The believers, in their love, mutual kindness, and close
ties, are like one body; when any part complains, the whole body responds to it with wakefulness
and fever." [Muslim]
The believers, men and women, are Auliyā' (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one
another, they enjoin (on the people) Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islāmic Monotheism and all that Islām orders
one to do), and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e. polytheism and disbelief of all kinds, and all
that Islām has forbidden);... (At-Tawbah 9:71)
"Whoever relieves a calamity that has struck a believer in this world, Allah will relieve for him one
of the calamities of the day of Judgement, and whoever makes things easy for a person in trouble,
Allah will make his matters easy in this life and in the hereafter, and whoever shields the faults of
a Muslim, Allah will shield his faults in this world and the hereafter, and Allah will help and
support his servant as long as he is helping and supporting his brother" (Sahih Muslim)
The muhaajiroon and the ansar were together and Allah was pleased with them (fighters and
helpers)
--we need to protect our ulama from any false allegation by the kuffar
--the people of the siddiqoon are the mujahedeen
--they leave their wealth and property and go in the path of Allah
--they are exiled, imprisoned as a result of these
--in light of recent events we have seen the treachery of the kuffar
--and how far they can go to kill an innocent man
--they violate human rights even though they say that’s what they call to
--enough is enough we have to propagate the message of truth
--that our ulama preach and we need to help them
-- So that they will not be thinking who will take care of my family?
Allah said if you help Him He will help you

--and you help Allah by helping the Muslims and the ulama
O you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help you, and make your foothold
firm. (Muhammad 47:7)
THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN ALLAH AND ENGAGE IN JIHAD

--these are the best of deeds
--all these things happening mean that the nice breeze of sharia is coming
--after all the prosecutions of the people of the past e.g. Musa (as), victory came
--and we can see that coming
--Allah's victory is coming insha Allah
--they have killed Osama Bin Laden and many other ulama but the victory is coming
Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of
Taghut (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitan (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the
plot of Shaitan (Satan). (An-Nisa 4:76)
Allah said the end belongs to the muttaqeen

--we need to prepare ourselves
--who is going to be the next Imam Anwar and Said qutub?
--this is the ummah of khair and the best nation
--we are the ummah that will be a witness against the other ummahs
--we need to prepare ourselves to be the next to come out and speak the truth
--despite what the kuffar will be doing
--we need to look at ourselves as those who will take 10fold from them when they take 1 from us
--we do not care about the Mushrikûn and the Munāfiqûn
Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islāmic Monotheism, true followers of
Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation, that you be
witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a witness over you... (Al-Baqarah
2:143)
Our religion will prevail as promised by Allah
It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad SAW) with guidance and the religion of truth
(Islam), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans,
idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) hate (it). (At-Tawbah 9:33)
We need to follow RASUL (saw)
--we ask Allah to take from us everything to use it to take His deen to the highest
--we pray Allah makes us taste what Sumaiya and the others tasted
--history will not remember Obama but Anwar Awlaki
--they are the people who gave themselves to Allah
--when Mus'ab Ibn Umair came and told rasul (saw) that he will call to the deen
--his da’wah reached all his people
--Allah said in surah Asr that by time everybody is lost except those that believe and act upon it and are
patient
By Al-'Asr (the time). (Al-'Asr 103:1)
Verily! Man is in loss, (Al-'Asr 103:2)
Except those who believe (in Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, and recommend
one another to the truth (i.e. order one another to perform all kinds of good deeds (Al-
Ma'rûf)which Allah has ordained, and abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds (Al-
Munkar)which Allah has forbidden), and recommend one another to patience (for the sufferings,
harms, and injuries which one may encounter in Allah's Cause during preaching His religion of
Islamic Monotheism or Jihad, etc.). (Al-'Asr 103:3)
Allah is our maula and the kuffar have no maula
That is because Allah is the Maula (Lord, Master, Helper, Protector, etc.) of those who believe, and
the disbelievers have no Maula (lord, master, helper, protector, etc.). (Muhammad 47:11)

CLASS ONE
INTRODUCTION
Alhamdulillah Allah privileged us with the blessings of reaching yet another Ramadhaan. An
opportunity like this that many or most take for granted, is an opportunity longed for by
those you passed by and see in their graves. In these early moments of Ramadhaan make a
resolution and make a supreme and noble resolution. Make it your aim to attain entry to
from all the grates of Jannah, through this Ramadhaan. Let this Ramadhaan be your means
for that. Make your aim to attain Firdaws through this Ramadhaan. Take advantage of it,
work for it and rest assured that Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala will never let you down. Last
year we gathered doing a series, you all remember, today we’re doing another series.
Between this one and that one it’s as if it was a hour of a day or even less, and that’s how
your life and our lives slips away. I ask Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala to strengthen and to
purify our hearts during this month in order to take full advantage of Ramadhaan. May Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala grant you all Barakah during your life time and especially during this
month that you may fulfill it with deeds, may Allah accept from us all. Last year we did a
daily spiritual, Imaanic series, which was later referred to as “The Gems of Ramadhaan”.
This Ramadhaan and it’s based on the suggestion and requests of many brothers and sisters
locally and worldwide. We’ll do a series of the Fiqh of Ramadhaan and this is for everyone,
just like that Imaanic series was for everyone, this is for everyone but slightly geared more
towards Talabatul-‘Ilm and in reality, nearly everything we learn or we will be learning in the
Fiqh of Ramadhaan, nearly, all of it is something every Muslim should know. We spoke
previously on what type of ‘Ilm constitute a Waajib and what constitute Sunnah, what’s
Waajib for you to know and what is Sunnah. Issues pertaining to you or those Allah
entrusted you with, like your wife and your children in matters that are Waajib like Salah or
Ramadhaan, is Waajib for you know. A single man doesn’t really need to know the rules of a
woman on her menstrual cycle, it’s Sunnah, you get a lot of reward for learning this but it
not Waajib on you. Now, if you have a wife that needs to know matter pertaining to that or
a daughter Allah entrusted you with, then you have to learn to inform her or she can go
seek that Waajib knowledge without your permission. If she needs to know a Waajib
knowledge on her, she has the right to go seek it.

This year we will study the Fiqh of fasting from the book that you have, Zaad Al-Mustaqni’
Inshaa Allah. You either have the book or these pages and what we will be studying exactly,
I mentioned it earlier but let me repeat it; is I can basically make an outline or study booklet
or curriculum on the Fiqh of fasting, I could possibly make it more appealing to you, since I
know the audience and I know what interests you and I know how to present it to you.
However, the study of the classical work of our ‘Ulamaa who proceeded us in Imaan, may
Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala have mercy on them, is essential for Talabatul-‘Ilm. The
structured classical style study of our ‘Ulamaa, the lessons you get from those books, is
what makes a person student of knowledge, and that’s what generates ‘Ulamaa. Just like
Usool Ath-Thalaathah (The Three Fundamental Principles) we go through it line by line or
nearly word by word and it’s the classical work of a ‘Aalim on Tawheed, even though that
booklet is slightly more of a contemporary ‘Aalim. For the Fiqh of Ramadhaan it was
suggested and I agree very much with what was suggested, that we use the book called
Zaad Al-Mustaqni’.
Zaad Al-Mustaqni’ is a book that I would like to teach from cover to cover some day, if Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala permits. Since it is Ramadhaan, it’s wise and thoughtful to teach the
chapter on fasting, which have is not the book, some of you have the book but what you
have here is only the chapter on fasting. In Hajj season if someone is going to Hajj, we can
possibly do the chapter on Hajj. That way when we go through the book from cover to
cover, we can skip out the portions that we already covered.
WHAT IS FIQH?
Fiqh basically is Islamic jurisprudence, Fiqh figuratively or linguistically speaking means to
understand, it’s knowledge in something. Shar’ee meaning of it and that’s what concerns us,
is that is deriving religious rulings that proteins to the actions of those assigned, as it
proteins to Haraam, Halaal, permissibility or disliking from the sources. Again, deriving
religious rulings that proteins to the actions of those assigned, I’ll mention of what I mean
by those “assigned”, it matters that proteins to Haraam, Halaal, permissibility, disliking from
the sources.
WHO ARE THOSE ‘ASSIGNED’?
Now the definition I said “the assigned” those assigned, who are those assigned? What we
mean by that is: Muslim, sane, over the age of puberty and so on and in Ramadhaan, a
woman who’s on her menstrual cycle. That’s what we mean by those ‘assigned’.
THE IMPORTANCE OF FIQH
Page | 2
The most noble of ‘Ilm is the ‘Ilm of ‘Aqeedah or Tawheed. That’s why we started with the
Usool Ath-Thalaathah (The Three Fundamental Principles), it’s the difference between
eternal hell or eternal Jannah. It’s the major Fiqh, it’s called by some ‘Ulamaa ‘al-Fiqh al-
Akbar’. After Aqeedah and Tawheed in order of importance, is what we start off with today
Inshaa Allah, it’s Fiqh and it’s also referred to as ‘al-Fiqh al-Asghar’. Al-Fiqh al-Asghar is the
Fiqh pertaining to Haraam and Halaal, the rules and regulation. It’s literally to learn the rules
and regulations of Islam. It’s the knowledge on how do you make Salah? How do you purify
before Salah? How you fast, the conditions, the rules of it, what voids it and so on and so
forth. It’s so important and it’s so essential that some of the Salaf used to:
ِ ‫اِ َن اﻟﻌﺒ َﺪ ﻗَﺪ ﻳ ِﺸﻴﺐ ﻋﺮﻇَﻪ وﻟَﻢ ﺗُﻘﺒﻞ ﻟَﻪ ﺻ َﻼة اﻟﻮ‬
‫اﺣﺪﻩ‬ َ َ ُ َْ ْ ُ َ ُ َ َ
A man or a Muslim may grow white hair into Islam, and not a single one of his Salah is
accepted. Is he not making Salah? What are they talking about? He’s making Salah. He’s
been doing it for forty years or eighty years, yet there is a deficiency for example in his
Tahaarah. There may be a deficiency or errors in the salad, like the man the Messenger
sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:
‫ﺼﻠﻰ‬ ِِ
َ ُ‫ارﺟﻊ ﻓَﺼﻠﻰ ﻓَﺎﻧَﻚ ﻟﻢ ﺗ‬
Go back and pray, you didn’t pray. Even though that man made Salah, but it is as if he didn’t
make it.
So the rules and regulations are essential and likewise Siyaam. If a woman is on her
menstrual cycle or if you travel, the details of it, making it up. All that is a glimpse of what
Fiqh is about, that’s Fiqh. Part of Fiqh is knowing usury (Riba) or business transaction, the
difference between the two, what’s Haraam and what’s Halaal.
ZAAD AL-MUSTAQNI’
The usual classical work of the ‘Ulamaa in Fiqh, is they usually write, the giants of Fiqh, they
write a Matn (‫)ﻣﺘﻦ‬. A Matn is something very summarised and that’s what you have, Zaad
Al-Mustaqni’is a Matn. Then they would have to the Matn a Sharh (‫)ﺷﺮح‬, an explanation to
that Matn. Then there would be Hawaashi (‫ )ﺣﻮاﺷﻲ‬which is commentary, commentary on
top of the explanation and the Matn. The term Hawaashi comes from when you write
outside the framework, when you take notes and jot them down, comments on the
Page | 3
boarders of the book or the writings within that book. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that,
but that’s where the word Hawaashi comes from.
So they have Matn which is super summarised, is very summarised text. Then they have
explanation which is Sharh and then they have Hawaashi which is commentary on the
explanation and the Matn. Zaad Al-Mustaqni’ is a Matn and the point of the Matn is to give
you a very summarised Fiqh opinions in the very simplest shortest ways and right to the
point. It’s very summarised and directly to the point. The rules and regulations of Siyaam are
covered, I believe what you have here is about five pages. That is the section on Siyaam
from Zaad al-Mustaqni’, yet the entire book that you have is about three hundred pages.
What I elaborate on or explain of this Zaad Al-Mustaqni’is what I learned from my
Shuyookh, may Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala grant them Firdaws as nearly most of them
passed away and died. The other parts are taken from Shurooh (‫ )ﺷﺮوح‬and Hawaashi that
‘Ulamaa over time wrote on this book.
Then you need to know that ‘Ulamaa usually or habitually start their Fiqh books, the
classical Fiqh books with the Fiqh of Ibaadaat, meaning worships. The Ibaadaat the
worships, like the pillars of Islam. Some of what we referred to as Fiqh of Ibaadaat are
physical, like Salah is physical, Siyaam is physical. It is classified as physical even though you
have to go by clothes to do your Salah, you have to spend money by clothes, you have to
pay your water bill by water to make your Wudhu for Salah. But those aspects are not at the
core of that Ibaadah, therefore is classified as a physical Ibaadah not a financial Ibaadah.
Some Ibaadaat are financial like Zakah, you may have to physically drive to get the money
and then pass it out but that’s not at the core of Ibaadah. So it is classified as a monetary or
financial Ibaadah. Some Ibaadaat are a combination between physical and financial like Hajj,
you have to do both. Both are at the core of Ibaadah of Hajj.
THE WISDOM BEHIND THE DIVERSE FORMS OF IBAADAAT
A side issue, the wisdom behind the diverse forms of Ibaadaat and the choices that Allah
gave us is that so one can enjoy his Ibaadah, so that you will elevate your rank in Jannah
with an Ibaadah you love. From the mercy of Allah is that not only does He want to do the
Ibaadah but he wants us to enjoy it while we do it. Some like to read Qur’an and prolong
their reading their Qur’an, day and night whatever they are. While others like to make
Sujood for hours at night, some people like to stand all night in their Qiyaam. Some can
make hundred Rak’aat a day, yet cannot spend a penny in Zakah, of course I am not talking
about the Fardh Zakah, the additional Zakah. Some are the opposite, they can spend
millions but they can’t do Nawaafil. So from the mercy of Allah is that He gave us Ibaadaat
to choose from. Some of it is that you have to deprive yourself of what you love like Siyaam,
you deprive yourself of food. Some of it you give what you love which is like Zakah you give
wealth. Allah gave us too many chooses to suit our desire and what we like of Ibaadaat.
Page | 4
The point is that all those that I mentioned are considered Ibaadaat and that’s what’s called
Fiqh Al-Ibaadaat. Fuqahaa’ start with those types of Ibaadaat in their Fiqh books. Then they
tend to proceed to Fiqh Al-Mu’amalaat after that, which is the Fiqh of dealings. Some of it
pertains to financial dealings with each other like borrowing, giving gifts, partnerships,
business transactions, all that is Fiqh Al-Mu’amalaat. Some of it pertains to marital
relationships like marriage, divorce. Some of it pertains to transgressions of people against
each other or against themselves, like drinking, fornications, accusations. Some of that
pertains to judicial laws, that’s all Fiqh. And some of it pertains to personal matters. So that
is all Fiqh.
THE AUTHOR
Our book here, Zaad Al-Mustaqni’ is a summary. The author is Sharafudeen Musa Ibn
Ahmad Al-Hajjawi, he died nine hundred and sixty-eight years after the Hijrah. This book is
not the work of the author Al Hajjawi. What Al Hajjaawi basically did was merely summarise
another book called Al Mughni. Al Mughni is by a more famous author that you all know of
and that is Muwaffaq al-Din Ibn Qudamah, he is the author of the original book. What Al
Hajjawi did here, he did nothing more than summarise that book by Ibn Qudamah. That
book by Ibn Qudamah is a more in-depth book on Fiqh. Zaad Al-Mustaqni’ is basically the
summarised version and it adopts the Hanbali opinions. It usually selects the major opinions
of the Hanbali Madhab, the authority opinions.
Since the author was in the ninth century, the Hijrah century, it’s considered more like the
authority opinions in the Hanbali Madhab. Because we have many ‘Ulamaa, we have many
opinions and overall the Madhahib that you know of are four Madhahib, but within these
Madhab, each Madhab there’s disputed opinions. That’s why those who blindly follow a
Madhab, saying: I am Hanbali, I am Maaliki, I am a strictly blind follower of this Madhab.
Well okay, when there is a dispute within your own Madhab, and there is and all the
Madhahib; which detour or rout do you take? I am not saying with the other Madhahib,
within your own Madhab.
Abu Yusuf and Mohammed Ibn Hassan first generations students of Abu Hanifah had many
opinions that were contrary to their Shaykh. You get questions sometimes: What did Imam
Ahmad say on this? I only follow what Imam Ahmad said. You follow Imam Ahmad with no
proof, you want that Hanbali opinions on that issue or the Maaliki opinion on that issue or
the Shafi’ee or Hanafi on that issue, with no regards to proof. The problem for you is many
issue within that Madhab was disputed, within that Madhab. That what’s within that
specific Madhab is that small circle, so imagine the dispute outside that circle with the other
Madhahib? That’s why the correct and safe route is to stick to proof. Of course there’s some
exemptions, you know someone who is illiterate, doesn’t read, write, no resources and
that’s more in-depth talk that we need to get in to. But we don’t neglect ‘Ulamaa’s opinions,
that’s why we study their books. But when it boils down to it, it’s the proof that we go by.
Page | 5
THE POPULARITY OF THE BOOK
Next point that I want to talk about is this book, this particular book gained worldwide
acceptance over the past centuries and actually today is probably among the most popular
widespread summarised Matn in the Hanbali Madhab. The book is considered by as I
mentioned, as a reference and what the official Hanbali Madhab settled on. Even though
that is open to discussion and dispute. Many ‘Ulamaa have explanation on this book, both
classical and contemporary. Some actually tried to make this book into poetry, to make it
easier for Talabatul-‘Ilm to memorise. Many encouraging memorising this Matn.
ADVICE FOR STUDENTS OF KNOWLEDGE

Similar to what mentioned in Usool Ath-Thalaathah (The Three Fundamental Principles),
because these Mutoon (‫ )ﻣﺘﻮن‬are very brief. However, because it’s Ramadhaan we will try
to make these classes like Khawaatir, meaning they will be short, so it will not take away
from your Ibaadah, that way you can combine between Ibaadah which is what should
occupy most of your time and this Ramadhaan and a little bit of ‘Ilm. Study of ‘Ilm is Ibaadah
with the correct intention, it becomes Ibaadah as we pointed it out. It’s true some ‘Ulamaa
used to cancel the classes during Ramadhaan while others continued to teach during
Ramadhaan. There’s no Sunnah foundation to say in Ramadhaan we do not have Halaqaat,
it’s more of a matter of personal preference. The emphasis of course should be on Qur’an
and worship in the month of Qur’an.
﴾١٨٥: ‫ ﴿ اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻀﺎ َن اﻟﱠ ِﺬي أُﻧْ ِﺰ َل ﻓِ ِﻴﻪ اﻟْ ُﻘ ْﺮآ ُن‬

َ ‫َﺷ ْﻬ ُﺮ َرَﻣ‬
The month of Ramadhaan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur’an. (Surat al-Baqarah:
185)
However, realistically speaking we don’t really read Qur’an twenty-four seven during
Ramadhaan and one needs to change his Ibaadaat habits during Ramadhaan to avoid
boredom and to reactivate one and to do more Ibaadaat. So any deeds completed in
Ramadhaan gets you multiple folds in reward, then if you were to do it outside of
Ramadhaan. Because of the sacredness of the month and possibly part of that, that you get
multiple folds of reward in is the study of ‘Ilm.
Let me say, I do not suggest using your time trying to memorise this book, especially in
Ramadhaan or even the chapter on fasting that we going to Inshaa Allah cover. Spend your
time with Qur’an in this month and if you don’t have the Qur’an memorised completely,
don’t even start memorising this book. Spend your time memorising the Qur’an and at the
Page | 6
sometime understand this very, very, very well. After you completed the Qur’an and
memorised the Qur’an, then you start memorising Usool Ath-Thalaathah and books like this
and other books as well. I met some who Wallahil-‘Adheem don’t know Arabic nor have
they finished maybe two to three Juzz, yet the sit and memorising Mutoon that they don’t
understand. That’s complete ignorance and a wrong strategy in seeking ‘Ilm. Allah will not
instruct you to recite Zaad Al-Mustaqni’ and Usool Ath-Thalaathah and ascend to Jannah, He
will tell you that about the Qur’an. However you have to understand this stuff. But
memorising takes much longer time and that time if you do not know the Qur’an, is
something you should be spending memorising the Qur’an. Some of this, like I said is Fardh
‘Ayn for you to know, to understand and to know the ruling. The benefit however of
memorising a book like this is that you have an outline of Fiqh in your mind.
We say to you – fasting, you automatically know the underline issues, the rulings, the
explanations, the explanations you studied with your Shaykh or later on that you will read,
they’ll all come back to your mind when you memorise Mutoon like this. It is as if you have a
Fiqh index in your mind. Or you memorised Usool Ath-Thalaathah is like you have Tawheed
index in your mind. If you don’t memorise it, it is not a problem at all just make sure you
have a complete understanding of the issues that are mentioned.
Those of you who memorised the Qur’an and I know will memorise this and have
memorised Usool Ath-Thalaathah, you’ll going to find that this is slightly more difficult than
Al-Usool Ath-Thalaathah.
WHY ARE WE STUDYING A HANBALI BOOK?

A Hanbali book, a book that is a Fiqh book on the Hanbali Madhab. I am not Hanbali and I
have never ascribed myself to any Madhab, anytime of my life Alhamdulillah. May Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala reward my father, as he taught me there from a very young age. I
thank Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala in abundance and I ask Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala to
reward my father with a very long life full of deeds and then Firdaws. The Manhaj that I am
on and everything today, is what I was on five, six, seven, eight years old and throughout my
teenage years and so on and so forth. Never Alhamdulillah did I change.
When I was a child for example, the looming conflict back then was the Madhab issue. I
recall discussion as a kid among families and my father was involved in them, is how are we
going to accept this person to marry our daughter when he is a Shaafi’ee and we are
Maaliki? My father always taught me that the foundation is the proof with love and respect
to our ‘Ulamaa and their explanations. Just because we don’t blind follow the ‘Ulamaa, it
does not diminish the love and respect we have for them and their opinions. We most
definitely need the understanding of the ‘Ulamaa, that’s why we are studying this book and
books like this. But our ultimate goal and the bottom line that we are obligated to go by is
the proof as they, every single one of them said and taught us and wrote in their books.
Page | 7
This book is a Hanbali book, but had we had before us a Shaafi’ee or Maaliki or Hanafi, I
would teach it the same exact way. I would like to teach Muwatta Maalik one day Inshaa
Allah, which is on the Madhab of Imam Maalik. And if I were to teach that book, the
opinions you learn throughout this Hanbali book would be exactly what I would be teaching
in the Maaliki book. Meaning the substantive issues and conclusions on Fiqh matters would
be the same on every issue. We would be mentioning the same issues, same underlying
issues, subjecting them to proof and selecting what the proof backs, based on what the
‘Ulamaa, the Muhaqqiqeen of ‘Ulamaa went through and analysed and summarised for us
and selected for us.
You will see many times in this book we will mention, if we get through it Inshaa Allah, that
the opinion the author chose turns out to be the weakest opinion. Or that theres several
opinions within the Hanbali Madhab or how the Hanabilah, the Imams of the Hanabilah
Madhab responded to opinions within their own Madhab. Or it maybe, yes they adopted
Hanbali Madhab or even the adopted opinions of Imam Ahmad himself, but other ‘Ulamaa
like Maalik or Abu Hanifah or ash-Shaafi’ee were the ones who were correcting that issue. In
fact Ibn Taymiyyah is considered Hanbali Imaam. Some accuse him of being a hardcore
Hanbali, and they say, “Look, Ibn Taymiyyah was a Hanbali, why are you not following a
Madhab?” If you are the type of Hanbali that Ibn Taymiyyah was, we would have no
problem at all.
Do you know that in the first section of Fiqh, which is purification, purification comes before
Salah, it’s usually the first section of Fiqh book. It’s a very small section, an initial section
introduction to Salah: Purification and Tahaarah. Before you start on Salah they mention
purification. In a personal study I did years ago, Ibn Taymiyyah the Hanbali disagreed with
the Hanbali Madhab on one forth or one fifth of the issues in that section itself. Is that blind
following? That’s just in the first subsection of Fiqh, he disagreed with his own Madhab on
one forth or one fifth of the issue. You will see much of his disagreement with the Hanbali
Madhab in this book. In fact you will see writings of Ibn Taymiyyah Rahimahullah the
Hanbali that they say the Hanbali, where he sided with some of Imaam Maalik’s Fiqh issues,
not Fiqh issues but even in Usool and namely one of them is ‘Amala Ahlul-Madina.
The book is like an outline or an index that we go out from, some of the opinions in it is
correct opinions and some of the opinions of the other ‘Ulamaa are the correct ones, and
Inshaa Allah we will go through it sentence by sentence. In fact some of the opinions like I
said was corrected by the Hanabilah themselves.
KITAAB AS-SIYAAM (THE CHAPTER OF FASTING)

Now the author starts off the section on Siyaam.
Page | 8
‫ﺼﻴ ِﺎم‬
‫ﺎب اﻟ ﱢ‬ ِ
ُ َ‫ﻛﺘ‬
The chapter on fasting. Kitaab (‫ )ﻛﺘﺎب‬means the book, the book because in reality this is a
book on fasting. This could be an independent book on fasting, that’s how Fuqahaa’ used to
break down their chapter. Kitaab is like a chapter – Kitaab as-Salah, Kitaab as-Siyaam, Kitaab
Al-Hajj (the chapter on Salah, the chapter on Siyaam, the chapter on Hajj and so on). Now
under Kitaab (‫)ﻛﺘﺎب‬, if they needed a subsection under Kitaab, it would be referred to as
Baab (‫)ﺑﺎب‬. Kitaab at-Tahaarah (the chapter on Taharah), then they’ll talk about
purification. Under the book on Tahaarah (purification), they’ll have Baab an-Niyyah, Baab
al-Maa’ (the water), Baab al-Wudhu, Baab al-Ghusl. So under Kitaab, if there is a more
detailed subsection needed it will be called Baab. If there is more subsections needed under
Baad, they will referred to it as Fasl (‫)ﻓﺼﻞ‬. So it’s Kitaab, Baab and then Fasl – that’s usually
how they break down their subsections within a chapter.
Here the author mentions Kitaab as-Siyaam. Kitaab as-Siyaam means everything you need to
know about Siyaam, The Book on Siyaam. Under Kitaab As-Siyaam, he mentions five
subsections, and each is considered Baab. The first one that he mentions and so you get an
overall of what we are studying, the first section is how Ramadhaan starts, meaning the
sighting, how it starts and ends. The moon, the crescent, who must fast, who is exempted
and the intention. Then the second Baab is what void fast when someone must do a
Kaffarah and under that is a subsection (Fasl) on sexual intercourse during Ramadhaan.
Then the third Baab is what is disliked and what is Sunnah during your fast and the ruling on
making up fasting. Then the forth one is Baab of fasting, non obligatory fasting, the Sunnah
type of fasting. The fifth Baab is on I’tikaaf.
This book Zaad al-Mustaqni’ is a comprehensive book on all Fiqh, like I said. You can actually
take out sections like Kitaab as-Salah and it will be as if it is an independent book on either
Salah or Sawm, whichever section you take out. What we are doing now is teaching the
section on fasting and it is all Kitaab if you take the fasting section out, it like we are doing
an independent book on fasting.
This is a very brief introduction and I think I went over time already and each issue I
mentioned today is really worthy of several lectures, but I kept it brief to coincide with the
fact that is Ramadhaan so we can attempt to finish this book in Ramadhaan Inshaa Allah.
Each point I mentioned today is worthy of several talks or at least one talk but it is very
summarised here. I don’t want you to get the idea that I spoke about everything in detail,
for example; the issue of blind following of the Madhahib and our love and respect for
‘Ulamaa, that needs a few talks in itself. Actually it has many details to it. The importance of
Page | 9
sticking to the classical work of the ‘Ulamaa, that’s worthy of a talk. The point about what
Fiqh is and how the ‘Ulamaa structured their Fiqh books and the mother books on Fiqh,
that’s worthy of several talks. That’s just a short summary that I gave to coincide with the
time that we have. Tomorrow will start with the first sentence of this book. You need to
bring it and follow along, so you won’t get lost.
CLASS TWO
This is our second class on the explanation on the Fiqh book Zaad al-Mustaqni’ – the Siyaam
section. We left off yesterday talking about how Fiqh books are organised. We said where
we left off is that, they usually name their chapters Kitaab like what we are doing here
Kitaab as-Siyaam. The subsections under Kitaab would be Baab, then if they need
subsections under Baab, it will be called Fasl. That’s where we left off.
The next point you need to know is usually Fiqh books go in the order of the of the well
known Hadith Jibril alayhi salam in Bukhari and other books of Hadith, they also go by
narration of the Hadith of Ibn Umar on the pillars of Islam. What do I mean? I mean they
start the Fiqh books with of course, for example Salah and the prerequisites of Salah before
that like purification. Then they move on Zakaah, then they move on to Siyaam, then they
move on to Hajj or Hajj then Siyaam. A unique thing Ibn Umar like I said he has these Hadith
radhiallahu ‘anhuma, he narrated some of these Hadith and he narrated from the
Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam where he mentioned the pillars and he mentioned
Hajj and then Siyaam, and in another he mentioned Siyaam and then Hajj. One time Ibn
Umar radhiallahu ‘anhuma was teaching the Hadith and he said the pillars of Islam and he
stated fasting then Hajj in that order. So a man stood up and corrected him, he said: “Ibn
Umar, no it’s Hajj and then fasting.” Ibn Umar radhiallahu ‘anhuma said: “it’s fasting then
Hajj. That’s how I heard it from the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.” How did Ibn
Umar radhiallahu ‘anhuma correct this man in that way, when he himself Ibn Umar has
another authentic narration stating the opposite order, like what the man said?
Now here what An-Nawawi Sharh Muslim said: “ It appears to me that Ibn Umar radhiallahu
‘anhuma heard it from the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam twice with different
orders, one with Hajj and then fasting, one with fasting and then Hajj. So what Ibn Umar was
telling that man is that what I mentioned, the order that I mentioned is correct: Siyaam and
then Hajj is correct. It’s not that Ibn Umar radhiallahu ‘anhuma was telling the man that
your version is wrong, he is just saying: what I said is correct and that’s how I heard it from
the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. I said like I heard it from the Messenger
sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, just to show the man that there is another narration.
That happens a lot, it happened actually in our Tawheed class. You give a lecture, you
mention a Hadith and it has more than one narrations. A student of knowledge may not be
familiar with the many narrations, so someone, a Shaykh may mention a Hadith in a
Page | 10
different narration and he gets corrected, thinking by that young person that’s the only
Hadith. Sometimes it happened in Salah where the Imaam is reading in a different Qiraa’ah
and he gets corrected. They don’t know that he is reading in a different Qiraa’ah. That I say
that because that’s basically what An-Nawawi was saying that, that happened to Ibn Umar. Ibn
Umar was not denying the other narration, what he was doing is that he was informing the man that
what I said is also correct.
A second scenario that An-Nawawi said that Ibn Umar radhiallahu ‘anhuma possibly heard
both narrations from the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam taught them, but when he
was talking to this man, he must have forgotten about the other narration. Bukhari in his
book, Sahih Bukhari, he mentions Hajj and then fasting and that’s for one of two reasons
and possibly both reasons reasons together. Why did he mention Hajj then fasting? He
possibly used one of Ibn Umar’s narrations of Hajj and then fasting, that’s one reasons.
Another reason is that because Hajj has more of a severe warning for those who abandon
and leaving it, more than fasting. And that’s another reason that he may have mentioned
Hajj before fasting, for his reason of mentioning Hajj before fasting. Having said that, the
order does not diminish the importance of fasting or Hajj, they’re both important, they’re
essential and they’re both pillars of Islam.
Next, the author starts off with:
‫ﺼﻴ ِﺎم‬

WHAT IS FASTING?
THE LINGUISTIC DEFINITION
The definition of fasting is the first thing that we will start off with. Lisan al-Arab
linguistically, figuratively speaking it’s to abstain like Maryam alayhis salaam said:
ِ ِ‫ت ﻟِﻠ ﱠﺮﺣﻤـٰ ِﻦ ﺻﻮﻣﺎ ﻓَـﻠَﻦ أُ َﻛﻠﱢﻢ اﻟْﻴـﻮم إ‬

﴾٢٦ :‫ ﴿ﻣﺮﻳﻢ‬...‫ﻧﺴﻴﺎ‬ َ ْ َ َ ْ ً ْ َ َ ْ ُ ‫إِﻧﱢﻲ ﻧَ َﺬ ْر‬...
“Verily! I have vowed a fast unto the Most Beneficent (Allah) so I shall not speak to any
human being this day.” (Surat Maryam: 26)
It’s to abstain from anything. Maryam said “I’m going to vow to abstain”, what are you going
to vow to abstain from? she said I am going to abstain; she meant from talking. How do we
know she meant from talking, when she mentioned in her first sentence “I’m going to
abstain, I vow to abstain”? Following sentence says:
Page | 11
ِ ِ‫ﻓَـﻠَﻦ أُ َﻛﻠﱢﻢ اﻟْﻴـﻮم إ‬
‫ﻧﺴﻴﺎ‬ ََْ َ ْ
I vow not to speak to anyone. That explains what she abstains from. The Arabs used to say
Saam al-Faras (‫اﻟﻔﺮس‬ ‫ )ﺻﺎم‬meaning the camel or the horse would abstain from eating or
drinking or moving.
Ibn Qutayba said: everyone who abstains from eating or talking or walking is considered
fasting, in the linguistic sense.
THE SHAR’EE DEFINITION
Now that is a linguistic but what’s more important, what’s essential to us is the Shar'ee
meaning, the Shar’ee definition of what fasting is. If you open the books of Fiqh have
numerous versions of what the definition of fasting is. Among two popular ones that I’ve
chosen is; to worship Allah by abstaining from eating, drinking and other matters that voids
your fast, from predawn to sunset. Or in another definition which is in the reference book,
the Fiqh reference book Muntaha al-Iradat Ibn al-Najjar; he said, fasting is to abstain with
the intention from specified matters, for specified time, by a specified person.
‫ﻣﺴﺎﻛﻢ ﺑﻨﻲ ﻋﻦ اﺷﻴﺎء ﻣﻘﺼﻮﺻﺔ ﻓﻲ زﻣﻦ ﻣﻌﻴﻦ ﻣﻦ ﺷﺨﺺ ﻣﻘﺼﻮص‬
YOU MUST HAVE THE INTENTION

Let’s taking sentence by sentence; it’s to abstain with the proper intention. It’s to abstain
with the proper intention. You must have the intention, that’s the first thing. Why must you
have the intention? For two reasons.
Number one reason is; you need the intention is to distinguish between worships and
traditions. Abstaining from food and water for the sake of Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala is
different than abstaining from food because one has a fever or too sick to eat or someone
who is trying to go on a diet and lose weight. One who takes a shower in the summer to cool
off is different than from one who has the intention to take a shower for the sake of Allah to
purify himself from the major impurity, whether from intercourse or a woman has finished
her menstrual cycle. The intention differentiates between what worship is and a tradition is.
Is your intention to gain nearness to Allah by doing the act that He taught you.
The second reason is; to distinguish between worship themselves. Not only between
worship and traditions as the first one, but between worships themselves. Dhuhr is four Asr
is four, how do you know the difference? The intention. When you are traveling, Fajr is two,
Page | 12
if you are going to shorten Dhuhr is two, Asr is two and Ishaa is two you got four Salah that
is two Rak’aat each. What differentiates between those? The intention.
The proof for the intention is from the Qur’an the Sunnah and the Ijmaa’.
ِِ ِ ِ
َ ‫َوَﻣﺎ أُﻣ ُﺮوا إِﱠﻻ ﻟﻴَـ ْﻌﺒُ ُﺪوا اﻟﻠﱠ َـﻪ ُﻣ ْﺨﻠﺼ‬
َ ‫ﻴﻦ ﻟَﻪُ اﻟ ﱢﺪ‬
﴾٥ :‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻴﻨﺔ‬...‫ﻳﻦ‬
And they were commanded not, but that they should worship Allah, and worship none but
Him Alone (abstaining from ascribing partners to Him). (Surat al-Bayyinah: 5)
The Hadith, the famous everyone knows:
‫اﻧﻤﺎ اﻻﻋﻤﺎل ﺑﻨﻴﺎت‬

Verily actions are by intentions.
The intention is also proven by Ijmaa’; when we say Ijmaa’, you are going to hear a lot in
our class. It means the consensus of the Sahaabah or the ‘Ulamaa, and the Ijmaa’ is the
source of proof for Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah.
According the definition that we mentioned, intentions are only part of fasting. Then you
got to follow it by something else, which is his second statement; from specified matters.
Intention then you, then you got to refrain, abstain from specified matters. Those matters
are eating, drinking, sexual relationship and other matters that voids the fast which we will
study in this book.Then the definition goes on to say: for a specified time, the Sharee'ah
specifies the time. Me and you can’t just sit and make up when we going to fast from when.
It’s from predawn also known as the second the second Fajr, the Fajr ath-Thaani ( ‫ﻓﺠﺮ‬
‫ )اﻟﺜﺎﻧﻲ‬until sunset. By a specified person meaning an adult over the age of puberty, who is
sane, who is able, who is resident, if it is a woman it not on her menstrual cycle or post
needle bleeding, we will study all the Insha Allah.
Keep in mind that the Waajib aspect of fasting Ramadhaan maybe Waajib in Ramadhaan
and it maybe a Waajib outside of Ramadhaan. What do I mean by that? It’s a Waajib
Muslims in Ramadhaan, that’s the majority of the situation. But if someone is travelling or
someone was ill or a woman on her menstrual cycle, the Ramadhaan days of fasting
becomes outside of Ramadhaan of the month of Ramadhaan. That’s the definition of
fasting.
THE RULING ON FASTING IN RAMADHAAN

Page | 13
Ramadhaan is a Fardh or Waajib and it’s a pillar of Islam. I took in Tawheed classes the
difference between Waajib and Fardh. Ramadhaan is also an action that is known from
Islam by necessity. The fact that the obligatory fasting of Ramadhaan is a matter that is
known from Islam by necessity, makes one who fully denies the obligation of Ramadhaan a
Murtad if he denies it. Not only is there an Ijmaa’ on fact that Ramadhaan is obligatory but
there is a Ijmaa’ (consensus) that who ever denies the obligation of fasting Ramadhaan is a
Kaafir Murtad. Based on the famous well known rule: if a person denies any action from
Islam that is known by necessity, he is a Murtad. The rule is if a person denies any action
that is known from Islam by necessity, he is a Murtad and a Kaafir.
Now Ramadhaan is Waajib and it’s proven by the Qur’an, Sunnah and from Ijmaa’.

O you who believe! Observing As-Sawm (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it was

Means Fardh (‫)ﻓﺮض‬, meaning it’s a Fardh, it’s prescribed.

َ ‫َﻛ َﻤﺎ ُﻛﺘ‬
The Kaaf (‫ )ك‬in the Kamaa (‫ﻛ َﻤﺎ‬
َ ) is to liken to something else. Fasting is not a our specialty of
the Ummah of Muhammad sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, it was prescribed upon those Umam
before use. Some ‘Ulamaa said it means the Christians and the Jews, but the more correct
opinion is keep the meaning of the verse general as the verse is. So fasting is imposed or
was imposed on the Umam before us, all of them, and that among them is the Jews and the
Christians. Because the verse is general.
‫ﻟَ َﻌﻠﱠ ُﻜ ْﻢ ﺗَـﺘﱠـ ُﻘﻮ َن‬

Meaning so that you may attain Taqwa which is the fruit of fasting. That’s one of proof.
Page | 14
Another proof from the Qur’an:
﴾١٨٥ :‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...ُ‫ﺼ ْﻤﻪ‬ ‫ﻓَ َﻤﻦ َﺷ ِﻬ َﺪ ِﻣﻨ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬...

ُ َ‫ﺸ ْﻬ َﺮ ﻓَـﻠْﻴ‬
So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is
present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month. (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
So whoever of you is present at his home, meaning he is not a traveler, must observe the
fasting of that month. The month, he must observe of that month which in Arabic is:
‫ﻓَ َﻤ ْﻦ َﺷ ِﻬ َﺪ ِﻣ ْﻨ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬
‫ﺸ ْﻬ َﺮ‬
‫ال ﻟﻠﻌﮭد اﻻزھرﯾﮫ‬
Al (‫ )ال‬The month in the verse means the month that you know, the month that you know
that we are talking about, the month of Ramadhaan. You know what month it is. That’s
what it means and in Arabic grammar that Al (‫ )ال‬the , is called Al ilil 'ahdi thi thihrihi ( ‫ال‬
‫)اﻻزﻫﺮﻳﻪ ﻟﻠﻌﻬﺪ‬.
ُ‫ﺼ ْﻤﻪ‬
ُ َ‫ﻓَـﻠْﻴ‬
Means, that’s an order and an order means you must accept, and you must follow, and
adhere.
From the Sunnah the proof is for example, from the many Ahaadith on the pillars of Islam.
That proves is Waajib or the Bedouin who came to the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam and asked him about the obligations of Islam and the the Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam told him, fasting Ramadhaan is one of them. There is, in addition to that there is a
Hadith to show the great reward for fasting.
‫ﻛﻞ ﻋﻤﻞ اﺑﻦ آدم ﻟﻪ إﻻ اﻟﺼﻮم ﻓﺈﻧﻪ ﻟﻲ وأﻧﺎ أﺟﺰي ﺑﻪ‬

All the actions by the son of Adam are for Him, except fasting for verily it is for Me and I
shall reward for it.
We spoke about that last year, in the series of last year, so there is no need to go over it. Or
there is another Hadith:
Page | 15
‫واﻟﺼﻴﺎم ﺟﻨﺔ‬
Fasting is a shield. I remember that I spoke on that. These are Ahaadith also in addition to
Hadith, to show that it’s Waajib. These are Ahaadith to show the great reward for fasting.
One can retrain and narrow down the passages of Shaytaan by controlling his food. When
one doesn't retrain his eating and drinking, the body reclines to desires. That’s why the
scholars said, “Whoever eats excessively, drinks excessively, sleeps excessively and will lose
plenty.” So that is how Ramadhaan is a Waajib in the Qur’an, Sunnah and Ijmaa’.
WHEN DID RAMADHAAN BECOME OBLIGATORY?

When did Ramadhaan become obligatory, what year? Ibn Hajar Al-Haytami said, It became
Waajib in the month of Sha’baan in the second year after the Hijrah. That means the
Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam fasted by Ijmaa’ of the Islamic historians, he fasted
nine Ramadhaans. And it happened to be that most of the Ramadhaan he fasted were
twenty-nine day Ramadhans.
THE STAGES OF FASTING
The first stage of fasting is, the obligatory fasting, is fasting ‘Ashoora. The second stage is
some said that is obligatory to fast three days every single month, but that’s a weak opinion.
The second stage in reality was when Ramadhaan became obligatory by choice, meaning
you either fast or you feed a poor person, is your choice. You can choose either way.
The wisdom behind giving the choice like that in that early stage, was to make it easier for
people to accept the obligation of fasting Ramadhaan.
The third stage or level, was when Ramadhaan became obligatory to fast on every single
person with no choice, there is no choice in it except those who are exempted and we will
study those who are exempted.
There is an issue in Usool Al Fiqh that I want to go over that pertains to this. Here we
mentioned three stages of fasting, ‘Ashoora, then Ramadhaan by choice, and Ramadhaan
without a choice, you have to fast it. So the Fardh of fasting Ramadhaan abrogated
‘Ashoora. When ‘Ashoora was abrogated by the fasting of Ramadhaan, that type of
abrogation in Usool Al Fiqh is considered abrogation from something that is easy to
something more difficult. Why I mentioned it? Some ‘Ulamaa denies this type of abrogation.
They said this doesn't even exist, but this is a prime example that it does exist. Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala abrogated ‘Ashoora and replaced it with fasting Ramadhaan, which
one is more difficult? Fasting Ramadhaan. ‘Ashore was once a year, one day a year and of
course if you want to tag on a day before or after it. That is ‘Ashoora. Now it been
Page | 16
abrogated by fasting not one day a year but twenty-nine or thirty days a year. The month,
the entire month. It went from something easy to something difficult. That is the first type
of abrogation.
The second type of abrogation in matters like this is something in similar matters, it’s not
more difficult nor is it something easier. I believe the best example would be changing the
Qiblah, changing the direction of the Qiblah. From Baitul Maqdis to Makkah. The effort in
me facing Baitul Maqdis or me facing Makkah is the same. So that’s an example why matters
were abrogated by something equivalent or similar to it.
The third form of abrogation is the opposite of the first one, abrogation from a difficult
matter to something much more easier or something easier. A good example of that is
standing firm in the face of the enemy in the battlefield. Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala
abrogated it to something easier, you have to stand in front of ten people.

Now Allah has lightened your (task), for He knows that there is weakness in you. (Surat al-
Anfaal: 66)
It was reduced down to standing firm in front of only two people.
RAMADHAAN BECOMES OBLIGATORY WHEN THE MOON IS

WITNESSED
The author said Rahimahullah:
‫ﺑﺮؤﻳﺔ ِﻫﻼﻟِﻪ‬
ِ ‫ﻳ ِﺠﺐ ﺻﻮم رﻣﻀﺎ َن‬
َُ ُ َ
Ramadan becomes obligatory when its moon is witnessed.
That’s the statement. The author wanted to point out to two things here. The first thing the
author wanted to point out here is Ramadhaan is Waajib or obligatory. The second thing
that it’s starts or it’s triggered by sighting of the moon, that’s how it starts. So let’s take the
first point that he wanted to teach us.
That Ramadhaan is Waajib or obligatory or a must; it’s a Waajib. Even though all Waajib are
obligatory, you have to do them, some of them are at different levels. Some Waajibs are at
the level of Rukn like a pillar, a Waajib that is a pillar. Some Waajib are at a slightly lesser
level. Those are usually Waajib that ‘Ulamaa may have disputed or may not be considered a
Page | 17
Rukn which is a pillar, even though they’re still a Waajib. So in Salah matters that are Rukn,
they’re Waajib, then there is other matter that are regular Waajib, both are Waajib. But one
was a Rukn, Waajib has a higher status than a regular Waajib. If you miss a Rukn a pillar that
is considered a Waajib, it’s more severe than missing a regular Waajib. Even though both
are Waajib.
So if the ‘Ulamaa say it’s Rukn of the Deen, it’s a pillar of the Deen. Note Rukn of the
“Deen”, it’s very difficult to find that ‘Ulamaa disputed that. If it is a Rukn of Ibaadah, a pillar
of Ibaadah it’s Waajib. Like it’s a Rukn of Salah, it’s maybe disputed like for example suratul
Fatiha in the Salah, it maybe disputed. Some of them are disputed and some of them are
not, like Rukoo’ and sujood are not disputed, the Fatiha is disputed. The point is that there
are many Waajib and they are all Waajib, you must do that. However the status of them is
slightly different at times. So now we know that fasting is Waajib.
IS ALL FASTING A WAAJIB?

No. Some of it is Waajib, some of it is Sunnah. Mondays and Thursdays that is a Sunnah.
Waajib is like Ramadhaan. The author here means the fasting that is Waajib, meaning
overall considered a Ibaadah that is a Waajib. In Arabic we call it Jinsil Ibaadah ( ‫ﺟﻨﺲ‬
‫)اﻟﻌﺒﺎدة‬. But there is some Sunnah fasting and the intention is what disguises between the
two. But here overall the Ibaadah itself referred to as a Waajib Ibaadah, Jinsil Ibaadah is
Waajib. Ramadhaan is all Waajib but there is other types of fasting that is Sunnah, and there
is other types outside of Ramadhaan that is Waajib as well. Some fasting other that
Ramadhaan that is Waajib is like for example Kaffaarah (expiation) for example, whoever
have intercourse in Ramadhaan with his wife or someone who does a accidental killing or
fulfilling a vow, that’s Waajib. So there is Waajib outside of Ramadhaan.
THE THREE CATEGORIES OF WAAJIB FASTING

Now Waajib in fasting is three categories and pay attention to this because it will help you
know the categories of Waajib fasting and how to find them in Fiqh books. Waajib in fasting
is three categories.
THE FIRST CATEGORY
The first category is Waajib due to a specified time, the example is Ramadhaan. And that’s
what the author means and he is referring to. A specific comes it becomes Waajib,
Ramadhaan comes it Waajib. This you will usually find under Kitaab As-Siyaam like what we
Page | 18
are studying today. That’s where you’ll find it in the books of Fiqh and they’ll tag possibly a
few issues about Sunnah Siyaam with it. That’s the first category.
THE SECOND CATEGORY
The second Waajib category is the category for a reason like for a Kaffaarah (expiation), not
everyone fast two month for accidental killing. It depends on the reason for it to become
Waajib. Unlike the previous category where it depends on the timing, this one depends on
the reason. If the reason happens, you have to do it. Not everyone goes through the
circumstance, it may be Waajib for some and others. This is the Waajib fasting for a reason.
Where will I find this in the books of Fiqh? You will find this category of Waajib fasting under
not Kitaab As-Siyaam that we are studying, but under another Kitaab called al-Kafarat, The
chapter on expiation.
THE THIRD CATEGORY
The third type of Waajib fasting is the one you make obligatory on yourself in which the
Shari’ah did not obligatory on you, and that’s what we call Al-Nadr or a Vow. O Allah I shall
fast one month if you give me a good spouse or O Allah I’ll fast a month if you let me pass
this exam. The Shar’i didn’t impose it on you, you imposed it on yourself. That’s actually
where we stopped off in our Tawheed class and we didn’t continue. This you’ll find it where
in the book of Fiqh? In the chapter of Vows of Al-Nadr.
This is something you should take good note on because it shows you not only the category
of fasting, but where to refer to them in the books of Fiqh.
CLASS THREE
This is our third Alhamdulillah on the explanation or elucidation of Zaad al-Mustaqni’,
yesterday we began with the first sentence. The first one was merely an introduction and
then yesterday we began with the first sentence.
RAMADHAAN BECOMES OBLIGATORY WHEN THE MOON IS

WITNESSED
The author Rahimahullah said:
َُ ُ َ
Page | 19
Ramadhaan becomes obligatory when the moon is witness. Or more precisely worded when
its moon is witness, the moon of Ramadhaan. The author we said wanted to point out two
matters with this statement. The first one that Ramadhaan is obligatory, its Waajib and we
finished and completed that yesterday. The second point that the author wanted to teach
us in that statement is that Ramadhaan starts or is triggered by the sighting of the moon.
And that’s what we want to explain today.
‫ﺻﻮم َرﻣﻀﺎ َن‬ ِ

ُ ‫ﺐ‬ ُ ‫ﻳَﺠ‬
Ramadhaan, the term Ramadhaan figuratively or linguistically comes from the term ar-
Ramad, which something very hot. The linguistic scholars and the Fuqahaa’ disputed why
Ramadhaan was called that. Why was it derived from that? You got some opinions that say
because Ramadan goes through some very hot weather and that’s why it was named or
derivative of ar-Ramad. Some said, another group said, No because Ramadhaan burns your
sins, that’s why it was referred it as that. A third group said, it comes from how the Arabs in
Jaahiliyyah they used to in Ramadhaan heat and melt and prepare their weapons. Because
in Ramadhaan they didn’t fight, because it was sacred even in Jaahiliyyah. But they would
prepare and heat and melt them and prepare them because the following month they
would start fighting.
A fourth explanation and that was an explanation by Mujaahid. Mujaahid said that
Ramadhaan is the name of Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala, that’s why he refused to call
Ramadhaan, Ramadhaan. He said, if you want to mention the month of Ramadhaan you
have to say The month of Ramadhaan. Then he went on to say that it is a special and a
unique month because it’s the honoured month that is mentioned in the Qur’an, there is no
other month of the month that we have that is mentioned in the Qur’an outside of
Ramadhaan. Now what Mujaahid said leads us to the next point.
CAN YOU SAY RAMADHAAN OR MUST YOU SAY THE MONTH

OF RAMADHAAN?
It was an issue discussed by our ‘Ulamaa, there’s opinions on this matter. The first opinion is
that is permissible to say Ramadan or to say The Month of Ramadhaan, there’s no
difference. You can see either, either one you choose. The author adopts this opinion, but
he adopts this opinion but he doesn't specifically say so. How do we know that? How do we
find out the author adopts this opinion. Look at his statement:
‫ﺻﻮم َرﻣﻀﺎ َن‬ ِ

ُ ‫ﺐ‬ ُ ‫ﻳَﺠ‬
Page | 20
The author said, fasting Ramadhaan is obligatory. He didn’t say fasting “The Month of
Ramadhaan" is obligatory. Has he been among the opinion that it is Haraam to say
Ramadhaan, he would have said “The Month of Ramadan” he didn’t use that, he used
Ramadan without the month.
THE PROOF ON THIS ISSUE
Allah in the Qur’an said:
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻀﺎ َن‬

The month of Ramadhaan… (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
However The Messenger sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said in an authentic Hadith:
‫ﻀﺎ ُن‬ َ ‫إِ َذا َﺟ‬

َ ‫ﺎء َرَﻣ‬
The beginning of the Hadith says, if Ramadhaan comes The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said it without saying The Month of Ramadhaan. Look at how it’s worded:

If the month of Ramadhaan comes. So once the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said if
Ramadhaan comes. You can’t say it’s Makrooh and Haraam because the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam doesn’t do Makrooh or a Haraam. So that’s the proof and it’s
very strong proof for the first opinion and it’s the opinion that the author, we said adopts.
The second opinion is that, it’s disliked to say Ramadhaan and some of it, the second
opinion actually split; some say it’s disliked and some say it’s Haraam. You can’t say
Ramadhaan, you just have to say The Month of Ramadhaan. And there is a split among this
group, some of them say it’s disliked and some of them it’s Haraam. And among those who
adopts this opinion like we said is Mujaahid and those who say it’s disliked was Ibn
Taymiyyah Rahimahullah, he was among those who follow this opinion. And Ibn Qudaamah
Rahimahullah partially adopted this opinion, he said if you speaking to people and your
speech indicates you mean The Month of Ramadhaan, then there’s no need to say The
Month. You can go straight forward and say Ramadhaan. if there is no indication in your talk
or in your writhing that you mean the month of Ramadhaan, then you should say The
Month of Ramadhaan, you should add The Month of Ramadhaan.
So according to Ibn Qudaamah, if I am giving a talk today and we are talking about fasting
and Ramadan, of course every time I mention Ramadhaan you know is the month of
Page | 21
Ramadhaan. So he said in a scenario like this I don’t have to keep saying The Month of
Ramadan, but if it is a sporadic talk it’s not related to Ramadhaan and I want to say
something about Ramadan where the other person won’t know that it’s the month of
Ramadhaan, he said I should add The Month of Ramadan to it. They used, their proof is the
Hadith: Don’t say Ramadhaan as it is the name of Allah, say what Allah said - The Month of
Ramadhaan. What that Hadith means what Allah said, say what Allah said:
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻀﺎ َن‬

In the Qur’an Allah said The Month of Ramadan. They said follow like that and say like that.
Now that would be clear decisive proof, that Hadith that I just mentioned had it been
authentic. The only problem is weak and it’s not strong enough to be any kind of proof for
this for this opinion. The correct opinion is that saying Ramadhaan or The Month of
Ramadhaan is the same, because the Hadith used by them is weak, that’s the first point.
Second is the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in an authentic Hadith said

If Ramadhaan comes, he didn’t say The Month of Ramadhaan. So once he says that, the
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam doesn’t Makrooh or a Haraam.
THE SIGHTING OF THE MOON

So the author here said:
َُ ُ َ
By sighting the moon of Ramadhaan it becomes Waajib, Ramadhaan becomes Waajib.
Meaning he said by sighting it’s moon, the moon of what? The moon of Ramadhaan. To
indicate that Ramadhaan that Ramadhaan started. The author is trying to, like we said, draw
our attention with this statement to two points. The point that we covered yesterday, that
Ramadhaan is Waajib, and we finished that yesterday. Is that Ramadhaan is Waajib and we
finished that yesterday. The point today is that he is trying to show that Ramadhaan starts
by sighting the moon. The proof for sighting the moon id from the Qur’an, the Sunnah and
Ijmaa’.
Allah said in the Qur’an:
Page | 22
Whoever of you sights the moon on the first of the month, while he is present, meaning he
is a resident, he is not travelling then he must observe fasting.
Then the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said:
‫ﻮﻣﻮ‬
ُ‫ﺼ‬ ُ َ‫إِ َذا َرأَﻳْـﺘُ ُﻤﻮﻩُ ﻓ‬
Among the numerous Ahaadith that he indicated about the sighting of the moon. He said, if
you see Ramadhaan then fast. if you see it, meaning the moon of Ramadhaan. That
indicates that Ramadhaan started.
In Arabic and in the Ahaadith that we have, you going to see that they refer to the moon by
two terms, either Hilaal ( ‫ )ﻫﻼل‬or Qamar (‫)ﻗﻤﺮ‬. Both of the refer to them refer to the
moon. Hilaal in Arabic is the crescent, the new moon, the baby moon. In Arabic the term
Hilaal refers to moon when it’s three days or less old, that’s what Al Johari Rahimahullah
said and that’s what a larger group of the ‘Ulamaa adopt it. That if it is three days or less old
we call it Hilaal (crescent). After the third days, the fourth, fifth, sixth we call it Qamar which
is moon. There is a difference of opinions on this matter and the usage of these terms but
what I mentioned and what I stated was popular, widely accepted opinion, because it’s
widely accepted opinion not only by the linguistic ‘Ulamaa but also by the Fuqahaa'.
CAN YOU USE BINOCULARS OR TELESCOPES OR SIMILAR EQUIPMENTS TO SIGHT

THE MOON?
Now the author is saying Ramadhaan becomes Waajib upon the sighting of the Hilaal, the
new moon of Ramadhaan. We have a issue here upon the sighting, can you use binoculars
or telescopes or equipment similar to that to sight the moon? From the author’s statement
it’s sort of left broad it’s sighting, so if one uses binoculars or telescopes or similar means,
then it is permissible. However you cannot impose such means. You can’t impose the usage
of such equipment. Why is it permissible? Because it falls under the general term sighting,
because you’re using your eyes, its sighting.
WE GO BY SIGHTING EVEN IF IT GOES AGAINST CALCULATIONS
Page | 23
Now what’s clear and what we don’t go by is calculations. It’s possible that they can
calculate the day the Hilaal starts, the new Hilaal starts. However the Shard’ was clear and
specified saying, that’s what we should stick to. It didn’t say calculate, Islam based it clearly
on sighting.
‫ َوأَﻓْ ِﻄ ُﺮوا ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَﺘِ ِﻪ‬، ‫ﻮﻣﻮا ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَﺘِ ِﻪ‬

ُ‫ﺻ‬ ُ
Fast for the sighting of the moon and break your fast at the sight of the moon. The Hadith
specifically said sighting, that puts an end to the issue of calculations. We go by sighting
even if it goes against calculations. Why? Because we are ordered to go by sighting. We go
by sighting, even if it goes against calculations. Some ‘Ulamaa said, to justify that we go by
sighting; they said that calculations could be wrong. They’re right that we don’t go by
calculations but the rationale right there is sort of weak. Yes we don’t go by calculations
you’re definitely right about that, but that reason is in a way weak. Because the reality of
the matter is that calculations maybe accurate at time, it’s possible.
The issue is that this is a Ibaadah and our Sharee’ah did not tell us to use that means. In fact
it told us what precisely what means to use, we have to stick to it. This is a matter of
worship, we go strictly by that which was specified to us. our eloquent Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam who was given the miracles of Jawami’ al-Kalim, the miracle of stating
summarised sentences that contains comprehensive meaning, he said go by sighting. He
could have he was given the miracle of Jawami’ al-Kalim,he could have worded it in a way
that encompasses calculations, but he didn’t.
Some contemporary ‘Ulamaa that the proof for using calculation is in a Hadith. What Hadith
is this? They say, ok we can use calculations and there’s a part of a Hadith that says we can.
The Hadith goes like this;
“Do not fast until you see it(the moon), and do not stop your fasting until you see it(moon)
and you cannot see it due to cloudiness then work it out.”
That’s English translations of it. Their proof is that last statement right there: work it out.
The Hadith in Arabic goes like this:
ِ ِ
ُ‫ﻮﻣﻮا َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﺗَـ َﺮْوﻩُ َوﻻَ ﺗُـ ْﻔﻄ ُﺮوا َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﺗَـ َﺮْوﻩُ ﻓَِﺈ ْن ﻏُ ﱠﻢ َﻋﻠَ ْﻴ ُﻜ ْﻢ ﻓَﺎﻗْﺪ ُروا ﻟَﻪ‬
ُ‫ﺼ‬ ُ َ‫ﻻَ ﺗ‬
They said Faqduru Lah (‫ﻟﻪ‬ ‫ )ﻓﺎﻗﺪروا‬means calculate. Faqduru Lah which is translated in
English, I don’t know if any better translation than that, it not an accurate translation but it’s
close enough. They said Faqduru Lah means calculate, which in English translated as work it
out. However, Faqduru Lah in some narrations is left as Faqduru Lah, work it out and that’s
it, period that’s the end of the Hadith. Yet there is other narrations and numerous other
Page | 24
narrations that examples what Faqduru Lah means. It doesn’t mean to go by calculations, it
means to finish the month as thirty days, it means to finish Sha’baan as thirty days.
Other clearly defines it as so. In other one narration:
ِ ِ
َ ‫ﻓَِﺈ ْن ﻏُ ﱠﻢ َﻋﻠَ ْﻴ ُﻜ ْﻢ ﻓَﺎﻗْﺪ ُروا ﺛَﻼَﺛ‬
‫ﻴﻦ‬
Work it out here in this Hadith, in this narration, it says work it out meaning count Sha’baan
as thirty. So it clearly defined what it means. In another narration:
ِ ‫ﻓَِﺈ ْن ﻏُ ﱠﻢ َﻋﻠَ ْﻴ ُﻜ ْﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬
َ ‫ﺸ ْﻬ ُﺮ ﻓَـ ُﻌ ﱡﺪوا ﺛََﻼﺛ‬
‫ﻴﻦ‬
If it is cloudy then count it as thirty. So there’s other narrations that clearly define Faqduru
Lah, meaning finish the month of Sha’baan to its full, which is thirty days.
In fact Ibn Abbaas, Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Hajar and al-Baji narrated or stated that there’s an
Ijmaa’ that it is not permissible to declare Ramadhaan based on calculations. Because the
Hadith is clear, that we must base it on sighting. Calculation is much different like for
example using telescopes or equipment that makes the sighting easier Although you can’t
impose the usage of such equipment like we stated, you really can’t say it is Haraam. Why?
Because it falls under sighting. Some of the contemporary ‘Ulamaa that I studied with
Rahmatullahi ‘Alayhim, the sort of disliked it, some said it’s permissible. However is totally
different calculation, it falls under the name sighting. The equipment falls under sighting,
because it may help you sight the moon better. Whereas calculations it’s something totally
different; it’s called calculation. Worst case scenario, the usage of those equipment of
telescopes or whatever other similar equipment they have to sight the moon, it maybe
disliked. While Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Abbaas, al-Baji and Ibn Hajar said it’s not permissible to
go by calculation and they said that’s by Ijmaa’ by consensus.
HOW DOES RAMADHAAN START?

Ramadhaan starts by sighting the moon on the twenty-ninth day of Sha’baan, which is the
thirtieth night of Sha’baan after Maghrib. The thirtieth night of Sha’baan, if we sight the
moon then that following day is Ramadhaan. The second method, if we don’t sight it on the
twenty-ninth day which is the thirtieth night of Sha’baan, if we don’t sight it then we
complete Sha’baan thirty days. Then after thirty days the following day is first day of
Ramadhaan. Those are the two ways that Ramadhaan starts.
WHEN THE MOON IS NOT SEEN ON A CLEAR NIGHT

Page | 25
Now the author goes on to say:
ِ
َ ‫َﺻﺒَﺤﻮا ُﻣ ْﻔﻄ ِﺮ‬
‫ﻳﻦ‬ ْ ‫اﻟﺜﻼﺛﻴﻦ أ‬
َ َ‫ﺻ ْﺤ ٍﻮ ﻟﻴﻠﺔ‬
َ ‫ﻓﺈن ﻟﻢ ﻳُـ َﺮ ﻣﻊ‬
When you don’t see the moon on a clear night, you don’t see the moon, you happen not to
see the moon and he said it on a “clear night”, you don’t fast the following day. What this
statement says is that, if the moon is not seen on a clear night:
‫ﺻ ْﺤ ٍﻮ‬
َ ‫ﻣﻊ‬
And he specified clear night, then the next day you are not allowed to fast. The next day is
not Ramadhaan and you’re not allowed to fast.
Keep in mind in Fiqh when I say, the night of the thirtieth it means it starts at Maghrib, our
day start at Maghrib. The twenty-ninth of Sha’baan after Maghrib turns to be the night of
the thirtieth. The first day of Ramadhaan starts at Maghrib the night before. That’s why we
start Taraweeh the night before, that’s why we don’t perform Taraweeh on the last night of
Ramadhaan. Because after Maghrib the last day of Ramadhaan, at Maghrib that’s when ‘Eid
starts. When it hits Maghrib, that Maghrib belongs to the following day. That’s why we start
our day, that why we start our Taraweeh before the first day of Ramadhaan.
Imam Ahmad said:
‫اﻟﻘﻴﺎم ﻗﺒﻞ اﻟﺼﻴﺎم‬

Imam Ahmad said, Qiyaam comes before fasting. Meaning Qiyaam starts the night before
the first day of Ramadhaan. Why? because that night before the first day of Ramadhaan
belongs to the first day. The author is saying here, we are in the month of before
Ramadhaan, we’re in Sha’baan. It’s the twenty-ninth day of Sha’baan, at Maghrib we call it
the night of the thirtieth day of Sha’baan.
Now that night right there, that’s the night we go out to seek and pursuit the moon. If the
sky is clear he says and you don’t see the moon, then the following day is the thirtieth of
Sha’baan and it is not the first day of Ramadhaan. You can’t and you shouldn’t fast it, so it’s
not Ramadhaan and you can’t fast it. The author said, if we don’t the Hilaal we wake up to a
non-fasting day. The author in that statement saying you wake up to a non-fasting day was
trying to deter from fasting the day, the thirtieth day of Sha’baan, because it’s what we call
the day of doubt. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam deterred from fasting, the day
of doubt, is either the day before Ramadhaan or two days before Ramadhaan. Either one or
two days before Ramadhaan. Now that leads us to the next point.
Page | 26
IS IT PERMISSIBLE TO FAST A DAY OR TWO BEFORE
RAMADHAAN?
Which are referred to as the days of doubt or the day of doubt. There’s opinions on that, the
first opinion is the Madhab of the Hanabilah and that it’s disliked, it’s Makrooh. It’s Makrooh
to fast the day or two before Ramadhaan. Why? What’s their proof? They took the proof,
which I’m going to mention in a second, they took the proof that deters from fasting a day
or two before Ramadhaan, the days of doubt to be Makrooh. To be disliked and not at the
level of Haraam, they took it to be Makrooh. That’s the first opinion.
The second opinion is by Asma Bint Abu Bakr and ‘Aishah radhiallahu 'anhuma said that you
can fast the day of doubt. The ‘Ulamaa got them and found them an excuse saying that they
must not have known about the Hadith that deter from fasting the day of doubt. They had
not heard of the Hadith or they did not know about.
The third opinion is that is Haraam to fast the day of doubt, not Makrooh but it’s Haraam.
What’s their proof on that? The first proof on that is a Hadith:
“None of you should fast a day or two before the beginning of the month. None of you
should fast the day or two before the beginning of the month of Ramadhaan.”
‫ﻻ ﺗﻘﺪﻣﻮا رﻣﻀﺎن ﺑﺼﻮم ﻳﻮم وﻻ ﻳﻮﻣﻴﻦ‬

Clear proof.
Another proof for that is ‘Ammaar radhiallahu 'anhu.
‫ﻣﻦ ﺻﺎم اﻟﻴﻮم اﻟﺬي ﻳﺸﻚ ﻓﻴﻪ ﻓﻘﺪ ﻋﺼﻰ أﺑﺎ اﻟﻘﺎﺳﻢ‬
In Sunan Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi, Ammaar says: Whoever observes fasting the day of
doubt has in fact disobeyed Abul Qaasim which is the Kunyah of the Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam. That’s what the ‘Ulamaa said we take it to the level of Haraam. Because
first of all, it’s deterred by the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and then there’s a
strong firm statement by a Sahaabi. Such strong terms that they wouldn’t use it in a matter
that is disliked or Makrooh. It’s worded so strongly that is a matter severe and Haraam,
otherwise ‘Ammar would not have worded it like that.
THE WISDOM BEHIND THE RULING
Why are we not supposed to fast a day or two before Ramadhaan, the days of doubt?
What’s the wisdom behind that? Many ‘Ulamaa talked about it and some of them has
Page | 27
opinions on it, and one of those is a gate to close extremism in ‘Ibaadah. Because that may
lead if you fast a day or two as doubt, that may lead to people getting extreme in their
‘Ibaadah. That’s one opinion.
Other ‘Ulamaa said is to deter from imitating the people of the book, so Muslims would not
imitate the people of the book. How? Because the people of the book were at one time
obligated to fast certain days, what they did is they tagged on days of doubt to those regular
days that they were suppose to fast. So Islam came and said, don’t fast the days of doubt in
order not to be similar to the people of the book.
A third opinion is that some ‘Ulamaa said is to eliminate Waswaas by fasting the days of
doubt, just like we said earlier it may open the door to extremism in ‘Ibaadah. It’s opens the
door to the Waswasa of the Shaytaan, the whims of the Shaytaan. By prohibiting us from
fasting it close a very big gate of the Shaytaanic Waswaas.
THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULING
Now having said that, there is an exception to fasting the days of doubt. That proteins to
fasting the a day or two before Ramadhaan, there’s an exception to that. In both Sahih Al
Bukhari and Muslim, the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said:
None of you should fast a day or two before the beginning of the month of Ramadhaan,
unless, and here is our point in this issue there is an exception, unless it’s a day on which
one is in the habit of fasting.
ٍ
ُ‫ﺼ ْﻤﻪ‬
ُ َ‫ﺻ ْﻮًﻣﺎ ﻓَـﻠْﻴ‬
َ ‫ﻮم‬
ُ ‫ﺼ‬ُ َ‫ﻀﺎ َن ﺑِﻴَـ ْﻮم َوﻻَ ﻳَـ ْﻮَﻣ ْﻴ ِﻦ إِﻻﱠ َر ُﺟ ٌﻞ َﻛﺎ َن ﻳ‬
َ ‫ﻻَ ﺗَـ َﻘ ﱠﺪ ُﻣﻮا َرَﻣ‬
Meaning the exception is, someone who has a voluntary fasting that happens to coincide
with that day, right before Ramadhaan, then go ahead and fast. For example, someone fast
every Mondays and Thursdays and the day before Ramadan turns out to be a Monday. He
always fasts Mondays and Thursdays, the day before Ramadhaan turns out to be Monday,
his intention of fasting is habitual of fasting Mondays and Thursdays. He’s not intended to
fast as the day of doubt, it just coincided that it is on that day, then he can go ahead and
fast.
For example, someone decided to fast all of Sha’baan, he wanted to fast the whole month.
Then he can continue fasting even to include the days of doubt.
Another example, someone has several days to make up for illness or travel or if she is a
woman she was on her menstrual cycle, she has days to make up. She left them to the very
end, and those day of doubt she has to use them or he has to use them to make up his days
of fasting. Because you suppose to make them up before the beginning of the next
Ramadhaan, then they can go ahead and fast. So those are exception.
Page | 28
The author here says:
‫ﺻ ْﺤ ٍﻮ‬
َ ‫ﻣﻊ‬
There is a keyword in the statement of the author here. It appears from the statement the
author is saying, if it is a clear night, not a cloudy night. He said it’s clear Ma’a Sahwih means
it’s clear, and you can’t see the moon then you don’t fast the next day and it’s not
Ramadhaan next day. We complete the next day the thirtieth of Sha’baan and the following
day will be Ramadhaan. The word he said clear sky implies that if it not a clear sky there is
some other rule applies, and then some other rule will be taken to consideration. Which is
exactly what he meant and what ash-Shawakani Rahimahullah indicated as well. We’ll clear
up and mention and that issue tomorrow Bi'ithnillah Ta’aala.
CLASS FOUR
This is out fourth class on the explanation on the chapter on Siyaam, from the book Zaad al-
Mustaqni’. So far we left off yesterday, we discussed and we said there’s two means or
methods to know the start and the end of Ramadhaan. Not only Ramadhaan, it’s actually
our Islamic months. The first one is by sighting the moon, if you see the moon then the next
day is Ramadan or the new month. If not whether is clear or cloudy, we finish the month off
and we can’t see the moon, we finish the month off to thirty days then the following day is
the beginning of the new month. That’s all the methods that we follow that are backed by
proof and how Ramadhaan begins and ends.
However, we left off yesterday saying that, it’s appears that the author of this book is trying
to hint or make a distinction between when the sky is clear and when it’s cloudy. Why?
Where did we get that from? Where’s the hint at? The statement that we left of yesterday
said:
“If you go and sight the moon on a clear sky, a clear sky and you don’t see it, then you don't
fast the following day nor is it Ramadhaan.”
ٍ ‫ﺻ ْﺤ‬
Which is a good statement, but he said Ma’a Sahwih (‫ﻮ‬ َ ‫)ﻣﻊ‬, he specified if the sky is
clear at night, you don’t see the moon you don’t fast the next day. That’s considered the
thirtieth day of Sha’baan, then the following day after that is the first day of Ramadhaan. It’s
clear, it’s to the point and it’s backed by proof.
IF YOU CANNOT SEE THE MOON ON A CLOUDY NIGHT
Page | 29
Now our next sentence that we want to do today, is where there’s a problem.
ِ
ِ ِ ‫ﺎﻫﺮ اﻟْﻤ ْﺬ َﻫ‬
ُ‫ﺻ ْﻮُﻣﻪ‬
َ ‫ﺐ‬
ُ ‫ﺐ ﻳَﺠ‬ َ ُ َ‫ﺎل ُدوﻧﻪ ﻏَ ْﻴ ٌﻢ اَ ْو ﻗَـﺘَـ ٌﺮ ﻓﻈ‬
َ ‫َوا ْن َﺣ‬
The author is saying, if you can’t see the moon on a cloudy night or there’s a sandstorm or
other reason, then the next day you must fast. He mentions in his statement, he said
Ghaymun (‫ﻢ‬
ٌ ‫ )ﻏَْﻴ‬which means if it is cloudy and then he mentions Qatarrun (‫ )ﻗَـﺘَـ ٌﺮ‬which is
something like a sandstorm.
Did we see the moon? The first means of how we learn the month begins, we didn’t see the
moon. Did we finish off Sha’baan thirty days? No. So why are we fasting then? It appears
like the author developed a third way of how Ramadhaan begins, and we said there’s only
two ways. This statement by the author is not accurate, even though a statement, scholarly
statement and a lot of ‘Ulamaa adopted it. But it is not accurate, and it’s not backed by
proof. In fact the proof goes against this statement. There are several opinions on this
matter, first two are the major and most important ones and the ones we need to know. Let
me repeat the issue before I discuss. Because if you don’t know the issue root, the underline
issue that we’re talking about, you’re not going to understand the opinions.
The twenty-ninth day of Sha’baan after Maghrib it’s the thirtieth night of Sha’baan, we
explained that. That’s the night we go out to look for the moon. We go out, it’s cloudy, it’s
foggy, there’s a sandstorm, there’s a barrier between us the moon somehow. The author
said since the sky is not clear, then we must fast the next day, even if we don’t sight the
moon. We didn’t sight the moon, we didn’t complete the month of thirty day, he said
because it’s not a clear sky, we have to fast the next day. Which is in reality the thirtieth day
of Sha’baan.
THE FIRST OPINION
Now let’s go through the opinions. The First opinion, the overwhelming majority of the
‘Ulamaa. I say the overwhelming majority that means it’s beyond even the four Imams, it’s
more than that. Among them in this opinion is Abu Haneefah, Maalik, Shaafi’ee and one of
two opinions by the Hanbali Madhab. This is the correct opinion: If we don’t see the moon
on the twenty-ninth day which is the thirtieth night of Sha’baan, we don’t fast the following
day. We go and try sight the moon on the thirtieth night of Sha’baan, whether is cloudy,
whether is foggy, whether is rainy, whether there’s a sandstorm, whether is clear if we don’t
see the moon we don’t fast the next day that’s the end of it. The next day will be thirtieth
day of Sha’baan because we didn’t see the moon. Regardless the sky is clear or not and then
after the thirtieth day, it will be the first day of Ramadan after that. And Like I said, it
doesn’t matter whether the sky is clear or not clear we try seeing the moon. If we don’t see
it, then the following day is the thirtieth day of Sha’baan.
Page | 30
Ibn Taymiyyah Rahimahullah adopted this opinion and he said this is the opinion of the
Hanbali Madhab, he attributed that to the Hanbali Madhab. Even though like I told you that
some claim that this book is the authority on the Hanbali Madhab. Ibn Taymiyyah said in this
issue is that we don’t distinguish between a clear or unclear sky, and then he said there is
no foundation that Imam Ahmad distinguishes between a clear or unclear sky. I remember
maybe two decays or so ago I had a report that I had to do and I researched this matter, in
the mother books of the Hanbali Madhab. I really couldn’t find a clear statement by Imam
Ahmad himself saying that is Waajib to fast the thirtieth day of Sha’baan when it’s a cloudy
night.
Now what’s their opinions? Yes it’s the majority opinion. Keep in mind we don’t go by
majority opinion, just because it’s the majority opinion. In this matter they happened to be
correct, they happened to have strong proof. There’s many opinions in Fiqh where the
majority of the ‘Ulamaa take the wrong opinion and the minority are on the correct opinion.
However over here like we said the majority opinion is what the ‘Ulamaa stated and
mentioned.
What’s their proof? The first proof is what we took yesterday. These people are saying that
you are fasting the day of doubt and the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
‫ﻻ ﺗﻘﺪﻣﻮا رﻣﻀﺎن ﺑﺼﻮم ﻳﻮم وﻻ ﻳﻮﻣﻴﻦ‬

Remember the Hadith we took? None of you should fast a day or two before Ramadhaan.
Unless of course what we said it’s a day and this is part of the Hadith; unless it’s a day where
one has a habitual fasting. Voluntary fasting that happens to coincide with that day, or those
last two days of Sha’baan. This is a Hadith in Bukhari and Muslim, so when you tell people
they’re say, the majority of the ‘Ulamaa are saying; when you telling people to fast the day
before Ramadhaan it’s cloudy, you’re in reality telling them to fast the day of doubt.
Because the moon hasn’t been sighting, you don’t know if the moon is there or not. You’re
in doubt and then you are telling them to fast the day of doubt. This boils down to being the
day of doubt that we spoke about yesterday, and we said the selected opinion on the day of
doubt it is Haraam to fast it. The author is saying, you must fast it, in this kind of
circumstances situation. He is not saying you must fast the day of doubt, he is saying when
the sky is cloudy and you can’t see the moon then you have to fast it.
So the second proof is the Hadith in Bukhari by ‘Ammar Ibn Yasir when he said, whoever fast
the day of doubt has disobeyed Abul Qaasim the Kunyah of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, that’s the second proof. The third proof is in Bukhari and it says : If it is cloudy,
look at that, if it is cloudy and you can’t see the moon then complete the month thirty days.
Look how clear that Hadith is, this is solid, Bukhari, and it’s clear and it can’t be put in
anymore clear words in regards to this issue. Not only is it a day of doubt, like the first two
proofs that we mentioned, but it is actually going against this clear Hadith where the
Page | 31
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said if it is cloudy, complete the month of Sha’baan
for thirty days. Did the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say, if it is cloudy go fast the
next day as the day of doubt? No, he said if it is cloudy complete the month thirty days,
clear.
Now the fourth proof is the majority of the ‘Ulamaa said the Hadith:
‫ﻚ اﻟ ُْﻤﺘَـﻨَﻄﱢ ُﻌﻮ َن‬

َ َ‫أَﻻَ َﻫﻠ‬
Let the extremist perish, and the Messenger said it three times. The ‘Ulamaa here are saying
it is too extreme to be ordering people to fast because it merely a cloudy day. While we are
not even sure if that day is Ramadhaan or not. So they say, that’s too extreme, and that’s
going too extreme in Ibaadah.
The fifth proof, the rule in Usool is that you don’t go from that which you are sure about in
Yaqeen to that which you are in doubt in. What are we sure about and what are we in doubt
in? We know for sure that we are in Sha’baan, we are for sure we are in Sha’baan. There’s
doubt, there’s a possibility tomorrow maybe Ramadhaan because the sky is cloudy. You
don’t leave that which you are sure in, which is the month of Sha’baan to that which you are
in doubt in. After we finish the thirtieth day then we are for sure done with Sha’baan and
Ramadhaan starts. That’s the first opinion, with their five proofs.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is what the author adopted here and notice the first opinion is a Hanbali
Madhab opinion. And the second opinion is the Hanbali Madhab opinion, in fact like we said
this is considered by some an authority book on the Hanbali Madhab. This is like a final book
on the Hanbali Madhab in which the opinions are the adopted opinions on the Hanbali
Madhab. So those who blind follow the Hanbali Madhab, which one are you going to take?
There’s two opposite contradicting opinions within the Hanbali Madhab. If you are a blind
follower which one of the two opinions you take?
Now this is the opinion selected by the author. He is saying, if you don’t see the moon on
the twenty-ninth day which is the thirtieth night of Sha’baan, he said if it is cloudy, the cloud
prevents us from seeing the moon and it turns out to be cloudy, then we fast the next day.
They included in that not if it just cloudy in his statement in the book, he also stated if it is a
sandstorm. But also the Madhab, some of the scholars of the Madhab also stated if it is
foggy or someone supposedly in a cave and he can’t see the moon or someone is in prison
and he can’t see the moon, someone happens to be blindfolded they all fall under category.
They said what you do is you fast the thirtieth day of Sha’baan which in reality amounts like
we said to nothing more than fasting the day of doubt. If it turns out to be a day of
Page | 32
Ramadan they said then that’s good, you are in good shape. And if turns out not to be a day
of Ramadhaan then you got reward. That’s exactly what the day of doubt is.
What’s their proof? They didn’t come out and say we are going to fast the day of doubt.
They didn’t say that, but in reality their opinion means that. They also have proof because
these are ‘Ulamaa. Their proof over here is number one, if you can’t see the moon then
work it out, in Arabi is:
ِ
ُ‫ﻓَﺎﻗْﺪ ُروا ﻟَﻪ‬
And that was an issue and a different opinion that we already took. They went to the
linguistic definition of Faqduru Lah. Faqduru they looked it up linguistically, they said
Faqduru means limit or tighten or shorten. They said, the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said if you don’t see the moon Faqduru Lah – shorten. So because it’s unclear, the sky
is cloudy, we will shorten. We will go to the linguistic definition and we will shorten
Sha’baan to be twenty-nine days. How do we respond to that? The response to that is very
simple. Even if we assume the linguistic definition is good, we will give you that. We will say
Faqduru Lah means to shorten or limit. We don’t need to resort to linguistic definitions
when the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam defined it in many other different
narrations. There are many Hadith that we went over already where the Messenger taught
us what Faqduru Lah means. It means to complete Sha’baan thirty days. There’s many other
Hadith where the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam explained that. That’s the first
proof.
The second that they use is actually a stronger proof. They said in Musnad Ahmad and
Sunan Abu Dawud, Ibn Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma on days when the sky would be cloudy, if
it is the thirtieth night of Sha’baan and it is cloudy, he would fast the following day. So their
opinion is supported by the action of Ibn Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma. Now to the response
to the action of Ibn Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma is, that the action of Ibn Umar radhiallahu
'anhuma goes against the Hadith he himself narrated. What’s that Hadith? The Hadith that I
mentioned you, the third one which is the third proof for the first opinion. If it is cloudy and
you can’t see the moon, then finish off Sha’baan as thirty days. The narrator of that Hadith
is on the authority of Ibn Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma, however Ibn Umar radhiallahu
'anhuma adopted the opinion to fast the day of, which will be defined as the day of doubt,
when it’s cloudy.
Take this rule, when there’s a conflict and you’ll see that a lot in Fiqh, when there’s a conflict
between a narrator’s action like here and his narration that he narrated, we go by what he
narrated. The precedence is to what he narrated, we go by what he narrated. In fact the
Sahaabah through their actions supported the narration of Ibn Umar, they didn’t support
the act of Ibn Umar. Through their method, they supported what Ibn Umar narrated. Ibn
Page | 33
Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma did it as a precaution. The ‘Ulamaa of the first opinion said, he is
not to be followed in a matter like this where there is clear proof against what he did. In fact
the proof is narrated by he himself. Just like Ibn Umar radhiallahu 'anhuma used to do
precaution in wash the inside of his eyes, which eventually resulted in the lost of his
eyesight toward the end of his life. The ‘Ulamaa don’t follow him on that, they don’t follow
him and do as a precaution and wash their inside of their eyes when the make Wudhu. So
he is not followed on this matter. In a matter like this, the ‘Ulamaa of the first opinion said,
we follow what he narrated not what he did. And if anyone claims to fast the day of doubt
when it’s cloudy, as a precaution they claim to fast the day of doubt on a cloudy night due to
precaution. Then the answer to that is, precaution in a matter like that is to leave that kind
of precaution. Precaution in a matter like that is to leave that sort of precaution.
THE THIRD OPINION
We took two opinions, now the third opinion is also a weak opinion. They said it is
permissible or Sunnah to fast but it is not Fardh. The author in this book said is Fardh. The
third opinion said, no we will say it is not Fardh but rather is permissible or Sunnah.
THE FOURTH OPINION
The fourth opinion is they said is dislike but it is not Haraam. It is disliked but it is not
Haraam to fast it. That’s the, and we discussed already whether it’s dislike or Haraam to fast
the day of doubt.
THE FIFTH OPINION
Some said we go according to what the Imam Khaleefah state. Actually that’s in reality a
solution to many of our problems and problems like this. If there was a Khaleefah and he
declared and choice a certain opinion in matter like this, it is within his discretion and the
Ummah should obey him in matters like this. Now that’s the fifth opinion.
THE SIXTH OPINION
Some said we go back and check, we’ll go back two years and check. If the last two years
were thirty days and we fasted the last years thirty days and the year thirty days, we will
declare this year twenty-nine days. That’s some rational but that’s six opinions and the most
important ones is the first and the second because each one has proof.
SUMMARY
The correct opinion is that, it is Haraam, it is prohibited to fast the day before Ramadhaan
because you claim is cloudy and you are not sure the moon is there or not. You can’t fast
Page | 34
that day, that’s considered the day of doubt. We mentioned five proofs for the first opinion
and in the second opinion we responded to their proofs. We’ve stated there are strong
proof, the strongest proof is the action of Ibn Umar and we said we go by what Ibn Umar
narrated and not by what he did in a matter like this. In simple and clear terms the signs of
Ramadhaan start by sighting the moon, if we don’t see the moon we complete Sha’baan
thirty days regardless of whether the sky is cloudy or not. That right there is the summary of
what we took.
IT IS WAAJIB TO FAST IF IT IS CLOUDY AND THE MOON IS NOT

SEEN
The author goes on to say:
ِ
ِ ِ ‫ﺎﻫﺮ اﻟْﻤ ْﺬ َﻫ‬
َ ‫ﺐ‬
ُ ‫ﺐ ﻳَﺠ‬ َ ُ َ‫ﻓﻈ‬
He concludes on this issue saying:
ِ‫ﺐﻳ‬ِ ِ َ‫ﻓﻈ‬
َ ‫ﺐ‬
ُ ‫ﺠ‬َ ‫ﻫ‬
َ ‫ﺬ‬
ْ ‫ْﻤ‬
‫ﻟ‬
َ ُ‫ا‬ ‫ﺮ‬‫ﺎﻫ‬
He is saying, it appeared from the Madhab that it is Waajib to fast if it is cloudy even if we
don’t sight the moon. The author himself here worded that end, that conclusion on this
matter in a very unusual way. He said:
ِ َ‫ﻇ‬
ِ ‫ﺎﻫ ُﺮ اﻟ َْﻤ ْﺬ َﻫ‬
‫ﺐ‬
It’s apparent or seems apparent from the Madhab that you have to fast that. And it’s a
statement that he rarely uses; Dhahirul Madhab. The ‘Ulamaa said he worded it like this
because this as we said a summarised Matn, short, brief, and he can’t elaborate, this is not a
book to elaborate. So he wanted to indicate and hint that there’s a strong dissent on this
matter within the Madhab. So the author is basically in a way admitting to a dissent within
the own Madhab on this issue. Many tried to find excuses for the author and those who
follow this opinion, on making it obligatory to fast a day which in reality is defined as the day
of doubt when the sky is not clear. They tried to find excuses by saying, he didn’t mean or
they didn’t mean is Waajib that you must do. They just meant it’s recommended or it’s
permitted or it’s better, but they didn’t mean it’s Waajib. And the reason they tried to find
excuses, is because this is somewhat dangerous for ‘Ulamaa to declare a day of fasting to be
Waajib, when the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in reality considered it Haraam.
Page | 35
I have spent a little bit of time on this and elaborated on this because it’s good to see how
the ‘Ulamaa think and how they dispute. How they go back and forth with their proof. It’s
also a detailed matter on fasting, the day of doubt. When it’s cloudy that issue right there it
may be simple, it may seem clear actually when we look and analyse the proof but believe it
or not actually books written on this matter. Abu Ya'la wrote on it and ‘Abdil-Haadi did, Ibn
al-Jawzi in fact wrote about it too. So it’s important issue and it gets you to understand how
Fiqh is.
IF YOU SEE THE MOON DURING THE DAY

Now the author went on to say:
‫ي ﻧَـ َﻬ ًﺎرا ﻓَـ ُﻬ َﻮﻟِﻠﱠﻴﻠَ ِﺔ اﻟ ُْﻤ ْﻘﺒِﻠَ ِﺔ‬ ِ‫وا ْن ر‬

‫ء‬
َ ُ َ
If you see the moon during the day, then that’s to declare the following day the first of
Ramadhaan. If you see it during the day. Scientifically speaking, it’s clear that the moon can
be seen during the day. Science talks about it and it happens. And you yourself by
experience could of probably seen the moon certain times during the day. This is something
not only proven scientifically but it’s also discussed in the books of the ‘Ulamaa centuries
ago; that what if you see the moon during the day?
The scenarios like for example, I am leaving the Masjid or I am walking outside in the
daytime after Dhuhr or Asr and I see them, it’s possible. Does that twenty-ninth day that I
seen the moon on become the official day of Ramadhaan?
THE FIRST SCENARIO
Do we say since I seen it during the day it was there the night before, yet we didn’t see it.
So in reality today marks the first day of Ramadhaan. That’s the scenario. So what do we
do? We abstain from food and water for the rest of the day in respect to Ramadhaan but
then we have to make it up after Ramadhaan, since we didn’t have the intention. That’s the
first scenario. Is that the correct way?
THE SECOND SCENARIO
Do we say that moon that I seen belongs to the next day? The author is saying, that moon
that you’ve seen during the day means the following day is the first day of Ramadhaan.
You’ve seen the moon during the day, if it is night time we already the answer to that, but
we are saying if you seen it during the day. If you seen it during the day, the following day is
Ramadhaan. That moon even though you saw during the day, it’s to declare the following
day of the first day of Ramadhaan. If you see the moon on the twenty-ninth day of Sha’baan
Page | 36
during the day and we say the moon was there night before, that means you are on the
twenty-ninth day Sha’baan. You are saying that moon was there the night before, that
makes that month of Sha’baan twenty-eight days and we don’t have twenty-eight days in
our calendar. We only have twenty-nine and thirty days. That’s what the author was trying
to refute by his statement.
THE OPINION OF THE ‘ULAMAA
The overwhelming majority of the ‘Ulamaa and among them is the four Imams is that they
adopt the opinion that the author here selected. Whether you see the moon during the day
or after Maghrib of that night, then it’s to declare the following day the first day of
Ramadhaan. That’s the point that you have to understand. That’s the opinion of the four
Imams.
The second point is the overwhelming of the ‘Ulamaa with the slight depute. with the other
one it doesn’t have any dispute that I know but this one, the second point here has a slight
dispute. They said it doesn’t matter if it’s seen before noon or afternoon with the slight
dispute in that issue. So The bottom line is sighting the moon during the daylight hours of
the twenty-ninth day of Sha’baan, whether it’s noon or after noon or anytime during the
day or after Maghrib, means the following day after that is the first day of Ramadhaan.
WHAT IF THE MOON DISAPPEARS?
There’s an important issue though, what if we seen it during the day after Dhuhr, after Asr.
Then after Maghrib we go and pursue it and look and see it, it vanishes, it’s not there? We
for some reason can’t see it no longer after Maghrib, we’ve seen it during the day but after
Maghrib, all night long we could no longer see it. The rule is we can’t continue to see it after
Maghrib, then it is as if we didn’t see it at all during the day. Meaning basically, that sighting
you’ve seen the day is cancelled. Why? Because we were directed to pursue and watch and
look at the moon after Maghrib. We were supposed to look at it and see it after Maghrib,
we didn’t see it after Maghrib. So that means a sighting that we go by, it’s not a Shar'ee
sighting that we go by. Because the considered sighting is the one that is after Maghrib. So if
we seen during the day and then after Maghrib we can no longer see it then that is as if we
didn’t see it during the day. The next day would be considered the thirtieth day of Sha’baan.
The author here should have worded the statement more carefully by saying, if we see
during the day and it’s still there after Maghrib, then it’s belongs to the next day. The next
day meaning, is the first day of Ramadhaan. H e should have added some kind of statement
saying, while its still seen after Maghreb because that’s a very important condition that the
‘Ulamaa mentioned.
Page | 37
CLASS FIVE
This is our fifth class on the explanation of Zaad al-Mustaqni’ and we spoke yesterday about
the moon sighting. And that if it is cloudy night or a clear night, it doesn’t really affect the
sighting. Meaning we go by sighting whether is cloudy or not, it doesn’t have no effect. If we
don’t see it on a clear or unclear sky, on a night where the sky is clear or unclear it doesn’t
matter. If we see it, the following day is Ramadhaan. If we don’t see it, then Sha’baan will
continue for thirty days, then the day after that is Ramadhaan. That in reality summarises
most of what we took yesterday. But a student of knowledge takes it in-depth and wants to
understand and think and see how the ‘Ulamaa think.
IF THE PEOPLE OF A COUNTRY SEE THE MOON THEN EVERYONE

IS OBLIGATED TO FAST
We stop off on the last sentence of the first paragraph. Where the author says:
‫ﱠﺎس ُﻛﻠﱠ ُﻬ ُﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬
‫ﺼ ْﻮ ُم‬ ‫ﻨ‬ ‫اﻟ‬ ‫م‬ ِ
‫ﺰ‬ ‫ﻟ‬
َ ٍ َ‫وا ْن رآﻩُ اَ ْﻫﻞ ﺑـﻠ‬
‫ﺪ‬
َ َ َُ َ َ
If the people of a town see the moon, everyone is obligated to fast. If a people of a country,
of a town see the moon everyone is obligated to fast. What he means is if a country officially
declares Ramadhaan by sighting the entire globe must follow along.
‫ﱠﺎس ُﻛﻠﱠ ُﻬ ُﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬
‫ﺼ ْﻮ ُم‬ َ ‫ﻟَ ِﺰَم اﻟﻨ‬
If one country, that’s the meaning go what he is saying, declares the sighting; the official
sighting, everyone has to fast. That’s of course a very general statement and he didn't mean
to include when he said, everyone has to fast. He didn’t mean to include that a woman on
her menstrual cycle or seven year old boy or insane person must fast. What he meant is if a
country declares that it’s the beginning of Ramadan is official and they did it the proper way,
the world must follow along and declare Ramadhaan based on the sighting of that one
country. What’s not disputed here is that if a country sights the moon and it’s confirmed,
that entire country or vicinity must fast by Ijmaa’, there’s no dispute right there. There is not
dispute on that matter. You don’t need to say, oh I see the moon myself, you don’t
personally need to see the moon yourself. Because Allah said:

Page | 38
Whoever of you is present at his home and witnesses the month, he must fast. Look at that:
‫َﺷ ِﻬ َﺪ ِﻣﻨ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟ ﱠ‬
‫ﺸ ْﻬ َﺮ‬
Witnesses the month. Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala didn’t say you need to personally
witness the moon. He said if you witness the month, which is a difference. You fast if you
witness the month, meaning if a country declares it, if your vicinity declares it and they are
doing it the proper way you go along. You have no excuse to say, oh I didn’t personally see
the moon. There’s an Ijmaa’ of ‘Ulamaa that it is Waajib to fast Ramadhaan by the people
who reside in a country after it has been confirmed by credible witnesses in a credible way.
That’s clear there. There is also a near Ijmaa’ that close vicinities, nearby countries should
follow along with that country that has declared the sighting.
DO ALL COUNTRIES HAVE TO FOLLOW THE COUNTRY THAT

CONFIRMED THE MOON SIGHTING?
What’s disputed now, those are matters that are not disputed. What’s disputed is if one
country sees it and they confirmed the sighting; what about other countries worldwide who
has not confirmed the sighting? Must all the country follow that one country that confirmed
the moon sighting? There are four opinions on this matter.
THE FIRST OPINION
The first opinion is what the author adopts, the author adopted the opinion that if one
country confirmed the sighting of the moon, all other countries follow along in every part of
the globe with no exception. As long of course they hear about it, if they didn’t hear about it
that’s a different story. But if they hear about it, they should follow along.
The proof for that is in Sahih Muslim they said. What’s your proof? They said:
‫ﻮﻣﻮا ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَﺘِ ِﻪ َوأَﻓْ ِﻄ ُﺮوا ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَﺘِ ِﻪ‬

ُ‫ﺻ‬ ُ
Observe fast on sighting on the new moon and break the fast on the sighting on the new
moon. How is that proof all the countries got to follow along? They said, this is a general
order from the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. General, broad and it is directed to
the entire Ummah; Sham, Masr, Andalus, The United States, they all should go along with
whatever country declares it, if they sighted the moon, if it reaches them. The point of that
Hadith is they are saying, is that the order of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
Page | 39
stating to fast Ramadhaan based on sighting is regardless of any boundaries or any
countries. As soon as one country officially declares it, then every other country follows
along. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam didn’t specify a continent or a country or a
certain areas, it was broad for everyone. That’s the first proof.
Then their second proof is:
‫ َوﻻ ﺗُـ ْﻔ ِﻄ ُﺮوا َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﺗَـ َﺮْو ُﻩ‬، ‫ﻮﻣﻮا َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﺗَـ َﺮْو ُﻩ‬
ُ‫ﺼ‬ ُ َ‫ﻻ ﺗ‬
Don’t fast until you see it, and don't break your fast until you see it; of course about the
moon. Again over here they are using the same rational, they say this is a statement that is
broad from the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and it is to the entire Ummah,
regardless of any boundaries or any countries. That’s the second proof.
Their third proof is to keep the Ummah united - unity. That method they said preserves
unity among the Muslim Ummah. Even though unity is not a goal within in itself. Especially
on the account of the truth, what we mean. If unity opposes the truth we don’t go by unity,
we go by what the truth is. In matters like this the ‘Ulamaa take unity into consideration,
especially when the issue at hand is backed by some proof. This opinion and it’s the official
Hanbali opinion and it’s the one the author adopted states, if one country sees the moon,
the entire globe follows along. And we mentioned their proof. They said the general
statement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to sight the moon were for the entire
Ummah. That, according to them is even if there is distances between the countries.
Meaning not just Makkah and Madinah that are next to each other; meaning if it is in
Makkah and they declare it, then people in Andalus or in Africa if they get the news of that,
they should go and follow along. That’s the first opinion.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is what Ibn Taymiyyah adopted and notice Ibn Taymiyyah is an Imam of
the Hanbali Madhab. The first opinion is a Hanbali Madhab and this is also opinion of Ibn
Taymiyyah who’s a Hanbali. Ibn Taymiyyah and the second opinion is that, when a country
sights the moon, it’s sufficient for that country. They don’t need to follow each other. So for
every country is its own sighting, every country has its own sighting. Meaning if they have in
Sham their own sighting and in Andalus they don’t have to follow along. Every country has
its own separate sighting. Of course, this second opinion is the opposite of the first opinion.
What’s your proof?
Number one:

Page | 40
The verse in the Qur’an Allah said, you must fast if you witness the month. We didn’t the
moon they said, our country did not sight the moon. Your country sighted the moon, our
country didn’t sight it. So we did not witness the month. That’s their first proof.
The second proof is:

ُ‫ﺻ‬ ُ
Observe fast for the sighting of the new moon and break your fast for the sighting of the
new moon. How is that proof for you? They said another country may have sighted the
moon and they may have a confirmed sighting somewhere else. The Messenger said,
observe the fast on the sighting of the new moon. We over here in our country didn’t sight
the moon, so they took it to mean that every country is independent.
They also used their third proof Qiyaas (analogy). They said people throughout the globe, all
over the world they start their predawn and end their fast at sunset at different times. For
example, when it is Maghrib in one country and they’re breaking their fast, they’re maybe
preparing to fast in another country. So the analogy (Qiyaas) is because we accept the fact
that the world has different timing, when they start and when they end their fast. We
should accept the fact that within the world, there’s a difference in sighting of the moon.
Just like every country starts differently their predawn and their sunset, they also have the
right to Ramadhaan and end Ramadhaan and end Ramadhaan at different times.
Now, their fourth proof and it is actually their strongest proof. In ‘Ikrimah Rahimahullah
adopted this opinion because of this proof. He said, this is a Hadith:
Kuraib said, Um Fadl sent me to Mu’awiyah to do some errand for her in As-Sham. So he left
Madinah and headed to Ash-Sham. Kuraib said, when I got to Ash-Sham and completed
everything she asked me to do, I completed her errands. Then the new crescent of was
sighted while I was in Ash-Sham. He said, I saw and the people saw the new crescent on the
night of Friday. They’ve seen the new moon on the night of Friday. Then I came back to
Madinah, he ended what he had to do and he came back to Madinah. When he reached
Madinah Abdullah Ibn Abbaas asked them about the sighting of moon where he was at in
Ash-Sham.
He (Abdullah) said, did you see it? He (Kuraib) said, I’ve seen it on the night of Friday. Ibn
Abbaas said, you saw it on the night of Friday? He (Kuraib) said, yes I’ve seen it on the night
of Friday. They started the fast on Friday because you seen it on the night of Friday, then the
following day is the first day of Ramadhaan. Ibn Abbaas said, but we saw it on the night of
Saturday, meaning we didn’t see it on the night of Friday, we saw it on the night of
Page | 41
Saturday. Ibn Abbaas said, we’ll continue fasting until we have completed thirty days or we
see it. Kuraib then asked the follow up question to Ibn Abbaas, will you not be content or
happy or take the sighting of Mu’awiyah radhiallahu 'anhu and his companions? They’ve
seen it in Ash-Sham on the night of Friday, a day before Madinah . So the moon was there
Friday but you guys didn’t fast on Friday, there’s only one moon. Kuraib said to Ibn Abbaas,
shouldn’t we go by their sighting as well? Ibn Abbaas said no, Ibn Abbaas said no. Then, look
note and note how I am saying this, then Ibn Abbaas made a statement and he said, this is
what the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam enjoined upon us.
Kuraib was in Ash-Sham, they started their fast in As-Sham on Friday because they seen the
moon the night before. Ibn Abbaas was in Madinah, they started on Saturday because
they’ve seen the moon the night before. Ibn Abbaas said to Kuraib, we are not going to the
sighting of Mu’awiyah radhiallahu 'anhu. Ibn Abbaas can easily get up, give a speech and
say, we started late we missed a day. People of Ash-Sham has seen it for us, so we going to
go according to them. We were wrong we must follow Ash-Sham because they’ve seen it
before us. The moon is a moon, it’s only one moon, they’ve seen it the day before us so we
made a mistake. And After Ramadhaan everybody make up that one day that we made an
error on.
Ibn Abbaas said, No we are not going according to their sighting. Then he commented and
said, this is what the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam enjoined upon us. The point of
the Hadith is Ibn Abbaas is a Sahaabi and Ibn Abbaas did not go by the sighting of another
country which is Ash-Sham. That’s clear, that right there, that fact is clear. Ibn Abbaas
himself his Ijtihaad was that, Ash-Sham has their own sighting, we down here in Madinah
we have our own sighting.
Now the response to this proof is; first of all, it’s clear Ibn Abbaas adopts that every country
has their own sighting from the wording of the Hadith, that’s his Ijtihaad. The second thing
is, the key statement at the end he said “this is what the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam ordered or enjoined upon us”. When one reads it and he is overlooking the Hadith,
he assumes that the statement of Ibn Abbaas, “this is what the Messenger enjoined upon
us”, when you read that you assumes or you think that he means every country has its own
sighting. But what ash-Shawkani Rahimahullah and I find it very strong, ash-Shawkani and
others stated that, is that statement by Ibn Abbaas was referring to the statement of the
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, “Don’t fast until you see the moon, and don’t your
fast until you see the moon.” That’s what it was referring to. Ash-Shawkani said, Ibn Abbaas
didn’t mean by his statement “this is what the Messenger enjoined upon us”, he didn’t
mean that every country has its own sighting. He wasn’t saying that, that’s what the
Messenger enjoined upon us, that’s not what he was talking about. He meant that the
Messenger enjoined upon us that we don’t fast until we see the moon, and we don’t break
the fast until we see the moon. You understand the difference? And what the final
statement of Ibn Abbaas was referring to?
Page | 42
What it’s boils down to is, has the statement of Ibn Abbaas “this is what the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ordered or enjoined upon us” has it been referring to the
different sightings, has he said the Messenger enjoined upon us and he meant by that
statement that the Messenger enjoined upon us different sighting for different countries,
that would have pretty much ended the dispute in this matter. The different sightings for
different countries was a Ijtihaad by Ibn Abbaas radhiallahu ‘anhuma, that’s his personal
Ijtihaad. “This is what the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ordered or enjoined upon
us” means we go by sighting and we end by sighting. It meant something totally different.
THE THIRD OPINION
Now there is a third opinion on this matter; if the Khaleefah orders something we go
according to what the Khaleefah ordered. That’s a correct opinion, in many like I said, in
many of these matters because the Khaleefah has a lot of discretion and a authority and the
Muslims should adhere to him in these matters. Also, not only is it the power of the
Khaleefah, there is also a Hadith indicates that:
‫اﻟﺼﻮم ﻳﻮم ﻳﺼﻮم اﻟﻨﺎس واﻟﻔﻄﺮ ﻳﻮم ﻳﻔﻄﺮ اﻟﻨﺎس‬

That’s the third opinion, is that according to what the Khaleefah declares.
THE FOURTH OPINION
The fourth opinion is that whoever gets the news anywhere and as you know back then the
news moved very slowly. Whoever gets the news anywhere, that a country has declared and
confirmed the sighting, everyone should follow along with that country as long as they get
the news about that. This is actually similar to the first opinion, in fact is actually in reality a
part of the first opinion but some ‘Ulamaa have it as an independent opinion.
CONCLUSION
The conclusion on this matter, matters like this are merely disputed, it’s a close dispute.
Both opinions, of the opinion of unification of sighting according to the first opinion and the
opposing opinion that each country has its own sighting as Ibn Abbaas radhiallahu ‘anhuma
stated; both of these opinions have giants of ‘Ilm that backs them. Not any ordinary people
but I am saying giants of ‘Ilm. In fact some of them have Sahaabah that backed them.
However personally I lean more towards the first opinion and that’s really ideal situation
and it’s backed by proof. When country declares the sighting, the ideal scenario is that the
world follows along. Why? Because that Hadith that points to fasting based on fasting are
general, there are broad, like we said and we mentioned the proof. When the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said:
Page | 43
‫ﻮﻣﻮا ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَﺘِ ِﻪ‬
ُ‫ﺻ‬ ُ
Fast to the sighting of them moon.
‫َوﻻ ﺗُـ ْﻔ ِﻄ ُﺮوا َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﺗَـ َﺮْو ُﻩ‬

Don’t break your fast until you see the moon.
These are general statement to everyone, for everybody in every country. So once it’s
declared and confirmed in the proper way, then everyone follows along. Because these
statements are broad. The order to fast based on sighting down have boundaries restricting
them, that’s the issue here. That’s like the order to perform prayers, Allah in the Qur’an
said:
﴾٤٣ :‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﺼ َﻼ َة َوآﺗُﻮا اﻟ ﱠﺰَﻛﺎ َة‬

‫ﻴﻤﻮا اﻟ ﱠ‬ ِ‫وأَﻗ‬
ُ َ
And perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakah. (Surat al-Baqarah: 43)
He ordered us not to deal in interest and usury:
﴾١٣٠ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﻌﻤﺮان‬...‫آﻣﻨُﻮا َﻻ ﺗَﺄْ ُﻛﻠُﻮا اﻟ ﱢﺮﺑَﺎ‬ ِ‫ﱠ‬

َ ‫ﻳَﺎ أَﻳﱡـ َﻬﺎ اﻟﺬ‬
َ ‫ﻳﻦ‬
O you who believe! Eat not Riba (usury). (Surat Aali ‘Imraan: 130)
He ordered us not to commit fornication:
﴾٣٢ : ‫ ﴿اﻻﺳﺮاء‬... ‫َوَﻻ ﺗَـ ْﻘ َﺮﺑُﻮا اﻟ ﱢﺰﻧَ ٰﻰ‬

And come not near to the unlawful sexual intercourse. (Surat al-Israa’: 32)
All these orders, perform your prayers, give your Zakah, don’t deal in usury or interest, don’t
go near adultery or fornication, all these orders - they apply to everyone everywhere. Do
you ever see anyone saying these orders apply to some people some places? This applies to
everyone everywhere in every country. And likewise, the Messenger’s order about sighting
should apply to everyone everywhere. They’re general, they’re broad we should keep them
as that.
Ibn Abbaas had his personal Ijtihaad, radhiallahu ‘anhuma. As I broke it down to you, he had
his opinion that every country had its own sighting. But ash-Shawkani Rahimahullah
responded to that and he said, the general proof of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam ordering everyone to fast indicates it’s for everyone and everywhere. This is the
Page | 44
wording of ash-Shawkani, once the moon is sighted in one place or one part of the world,
everyone must follow along and fast. If Masr declares it, the Arabian Peninsula and the rest
of the world should fast. If Makkah declares it, the rest of the world should fast. If in
Andalus they happened to confirm it the rest of the world follows along. Why? Because the
Hadith are general. The general Ahaadith and the fact that Ibn Abbaas radhiallahu ‘anhuma
statement was his opinion, it was his Ijtihaad not the statement of the Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam . With this we have concluded Alhamdulillah the first paragraph of your
Kitaab as-Siyaam. Tomorrow Inshaa Allah we beginning of the second paragraph.
CLASS SIX
RAMADHAAN IS OBSERVED BY THE SIGHTING OF ONE JUST,

CREDIBLE AND TRUSTWORTHY PERSON
This is our Six Class, Alhamdulillah that we reached this far. We left off at the author’s
statement:
‫َوﻳُﺼﺎم ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَِﺔ َﻋ ْﺪ ٍل ُﻣ َﻜﻠَﻒ َوﻟَ ْﻮ اُﻧْـﺜَﻰ‬

Now the author here where we left off yesterday, he’s going to tell us who can testify to the
sighting of the moon. Whose testimony we accept, whose sighting we accept and issues
surrounding and pertaining that. He said Ramadhaan is observed by the sighting of one just,
credible person.
‫َﻋ ْﺪ ٍل‬
‘Adlin, means in Arabic means credible, trustworthy.
‫ُﻣ َﻜﻠَﻒ‬
Mukkalaf, means say over the age of puberty, even if it is a female he said. At the end of his
statement, the author said, even if it is a female. Once a person comes forth with these
qualities we observe the month of Ramadhaan, Ramadhaan starts. So long as it is an honest
trustworthy credible person, he comes forth and announces that he seen the moon or she
seen the moon, the Hilaal, then the start of Ramadhaan begins.
Page | 45
DO WE GO BY ONE PERSON’S SIGHTING EVEN IF HE WAS
WITH A GROUP WHO DID NOT SEE IT?
Let’s discuss some the issue that pertains to this matter. Let’s assume first of all that there
was a group, they went to the outskirt for the purpose of sighting the moon or just a
gathering or a picnic. They were in an area where they seen the moon. One of the people
there seen the moon, yet the others didn’t. Do we go by one person sighting, even though
he was with a group who didn’t see it? By the way going out to the outskirt to sight is an
abandoned Sunnah, so if you can do that in the future, it’s good to do that.
THE FIRST OPINION
The answer to that is; yes we go by what one person said according to the Hanbali Madhab
and the majority opinion, even if the rest didn’t see it. Those who didn’t see it, they are not
ruling out that it wasn’t there, they just happened that they didn’t see it. Not seeing is not
ruling out there was a moon. They just happened not to see it. The one who was
trustworthy and happened to see it we take his word on that matter because the condition
applies to him; he is trustworthy, he is credible, he is Mukalaf, he is ‘Adlin, we take his word.
One who confirms the sighting in such matters, he is given president over those who didn’t
see it.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second weaker opinion is that if one is in a group and he didn’t see it we don’t take his
testimony because it not likely that one out of the group who seen it and the others missed
it.
THE CORRECT OPINION
The correct opinion and strong opinion is that of the majority and included in them is the
Hanbali Madhab is that, and it what the author adopted is that; if we see, if one person see
the moon out of the group; he is just, credible the condition are there, we go by what he
said.
WHAT DOES MUKALLAF MEAN?

The author said Mukallaf (‫ﻜﻠَﻒ‬
َ ‫ ) ُﻣ‬means one who is obligated to do the command of Islam,
that is from, that is the definition from a Fiqh perspective, and it contains two qualities. So
when you read it in a book, you know that is one who is obligated to do the command of
Page | 46
Islam; number one he has to be sane, number two over the age of puberty. That’s taken
from the Hadith the pen has been lifted from three.
WHAT DOES ‘ADL MEAN?
THE LINGUISTIC DEFINITION
Then next issue, the author said; is Mukallaf then he said ‘Adlin (‫ﻋ ْﺪ ٍل‬
َ ), it mean in English;
trustworthy, credible, just person. That’s what ‘Adlin means.
‫ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَِﺔ َﻋ ْﺪ ٍل‬

What constitutes a credible trustworthy person from a Sharee’ah perspective? Fiqh
perspective? Figuratively speaking, the word ‘Adlin in Arabic comes from the region of being
straight which is the opposite of something crocked. And that is why is called that, because
the person who is labelled as an ‘Adlin has a straight life. Or overall a straight life, that’s why
the word was take from that.
THE SHAR’EE DEFINITION
The Shar’ee Fiqh meaning for us and what’s essential for us, there is many definition, but
the comprehensive one and adopted by the majority of the ‘Ulamaa is it is very
comprehensive is; he is the one who does the ordains, refrains from the major sins and does
not persisted on minor sins. What do we mean by doing the ordains? Doing the ordains is
life a Fardh, like Salah. Doing the Salah, refraining from sins, is like fornication, murder,
adultery, but it is not only that, as some may assume. Spreading gossip among the two
Muslim, major sin. Backbiting is a major sin. If one is caught backbiting once and it
confirmed that he didn’t repent, that is a major sin and we don’t take the testimony until he
repents and fulfils the conditions of repentance.
Imam Ahmad has a higher status than this definition. He didn’t except the testimony of one
who was known not to perform his Witr Salah. He rejected someone testimony if he leaves
an essential Ibaadah. Essential Ibaadah like Witr is not obligatory but Imam Ahmad held
people at a higher standard. If you don’t do that I don’t except your testimony.
So do we take Imam Ahmad’s high scrutiny of who he except or testimony in matters like
this? The ‘Ulamaa of the Hanbali Madhab said no, because Imam Ahmad had a higher
standard in who is except their testimony, in financial matter. He rejected their testimony in
financial matters if they didn’t do Witr because it requires a higher scrutiny. Because in
Page | 47
financial dealings they incentive to lie whether for yourself or someone else. You may get a
gain out of it. There is a big incentive to lie. If you are testifying about yourself or to yourself,
you may gain something. If you testifying for someone different, you may also gain some
wealth out of it. In the sighting of the moon that is not the same, unless sometimes there
appear to be an incentive for one to gain by reporting the sighting of the moon then will
resort to the standard of Imam Ahmad. That would be like countries who even today they
may gave at times the reward for sighting the moon. That makes it an incentive for one to
lie. Unlike where someone will go and report and he doesn’t expect or get anything. So
there is an incentive we will resort to the definition or the method of Imam Ahmad went by.
Some ‘Ulamaa said; if we go by the original definition I mention, one who does the ordains,
and refrain from the major sins, he does not persist on minor sins, he said if we really, really,
go by that? There is no one who fits that category because everyone is a sinner. If we use
the scrutiny of Imam Ahmad, that’s even impossible. Why? Because everyone has a slip of a
tongue or he may have said something about someone backbit, Ilaa man rahimallah, that is
a major sin. And that diminishes credibility, then we can’t take his testimony.
Therefore the ‘Ulamaa said; an Imam or a Khaleefah or of course now in Islamic centres a
Shaykh, if you go to him with the sighting. They said; they can analysis the overall person the
credibility in circumstances surrounding that person to come with a decision as to whose
testimony is accepted and whether they will take his sighting. Because they said, Allah said:
‫ﺿ ْﻮ َن ِﻣ َﻦ اﻟ ﱡﺸ َﻬ َﺪ ِاء‬
َ ‫ﺎن ِﻣ ﱠﻤ ْﻦ ﺗَـ ْﺮ‬
ِ َ‫ﻓَِﺈن ﻟﱠﻢ ﻳ ُﻜﻮﻧَﺎ رﺟﻠَ ْﻴ ِﻦ ﻓَـﺮﺟﻞ و ْاﻣﺮأَﺗ‬...
َ َ ٌ َُ َُ َ ْ
﴾٢٨٢ : ‫﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...
And if there are not two men (available), then a man and two women, such as you agree for
witnesses. (Surat al-Baqarah: 282)
Those who you accept or agree to as a witness. Meaning the definition I just mentioned is
just an overall general guideline or the judge or the Khaleefah or a Shaykh or someone in
their position has some discretion in whose testimony they accept.
ACCEPTING THE TESTIMONY OF AN ALCOHOLIC OR ONE

INVOLVED IN SIMILAR SINS
If one is an alcoholic or has a similar sin, then he came in his twenties we was caught
fornicating, he came to testify. Do we take his testimony? If he repented and he applied the
rule of repentance, we accept his testimony. Because if we deny the testimony of major sins
who repented, there is no one credible, they repented. They are no longer sinners in that
Page | 48
matter. After they repented, they become credible and trustworthy. That’s as long as they
followed the rule of repentance.
DOES ONE HAVE TO HAVE STRONG EYESIGHT?

The next point is:
‫ﻟِ ُﺮْؤﻳَِﺔ َﻋ ْﺪ ٍل‬

‘Adlin the ‘Ulamaa said is one condition but including in that, one for this matter has to have
strong eyesight. They even criticise the author in this book, saying that he should’ve added
that in addition to ‘Adlin he should have a strong eyesight. Because that’s the condition
essential to this particular task that he is testifying to. So they criticised the author for not
adding the condition in addition to ‘Adlin they said he should've also added that he should
have strong eyesight.
Other Ulamaa defended the author here and said; when he is a credible person and
trustworthy, is included in that that he has to have strong eyesight. Because he is credible
trustworthy, he would never testify to that which he didn’t see. Therefore it’s included
under the term ‘Adlil (just, credible , and trustworthy).
The argument was then rebutted by saying; he may be credible, trustworthy, but his weak
eyesight may cause him to suspect or to see that which he didn’t see. And that has nothing
to do with the credible issue. So it must be an additional factor that the author should’ve
stated. Some contemporary ‘Ulamaa went to the extent, of contemporary that I studied
with, they said; they would reject the testimony of who wears glass. That may go to an
extreme because glass or contacts compensate for the loss of sight, Allahu A'lam, that may
be a little extreme.
Now what’s the proof that you need to have strong eyesight for matter like this. Is in the
story of Musa alayhi salaam. When Musa alayhi salaam went to the man of Madyan who
later became his father in law. One of the daughters of that man said:
ِ ‫ت اﻟْ َﻘ ِﻮ ﱡ‬ ِ ‫ﺖ‬
ُ ‫ي ْاﻷَﻣ‬
: ‫ﻴﻦ ﴿اﻟﻘﺼﺺ‬ َ ‫اﺳﺘَﺄْ َﺟ ْﺮ‬ ْ ِ َ‫ﻳَﺎ أَﺑ‬...
ْ ‫اﺳﺘَﺄْﺟ ْﺮُﻩ ۖ◌ إِ ﱠن َﺧ ْﻴـ َﺮ َﻣ ِﻦ‬
﴾٢٦
“O my father! Hire him! Verily, the best of men for you to hire is the strong, the
trustworthy.” (Surat al-Qasas: 26)
Did she say just trustworthy? She said:
Page | 49
‫ﻴﻦ‬ َِ‫ي ْاﻷ‬
‫ﻣ‬ ‫اﻟْ َﻘ ِﻮ ﱡ‬
ُ
Strong and trustworthy. She said those two factors, for the task that they needed him for;
trustworthy and strong.
Likewise the second factor we need for moon sighting is; trustworthy, yes. In addition to
trustworthy you need strong eyesight. Likewise additional proof ‘Ifreet the jinn who brought
the palace of the queen from Saba’ said:
﴾٣٩: ‫ﻴﻦ ﴿اﻟﻨﻤﻞ‬ ِ ‫وإِﻧّﻲ ﻋﻠَﻴ ِﻪ ﻟََﻘ ِﻮ‬...

ٌ ‫ي أَﻣ‬
ّ َْ َ
I am indeed strong, and trustworthy for such work. (Surat an-Naml: 39)
The task that he sent out for needs two characteristics; he needs to be trustworthy and he
needs to be strong at the same time. So trustworthiness is not enough, because one must
have strong eyesight. Some said the author included it in being trustworthy, some said no
the author should have mentioned it separate.
HOW MANY WITNESSES DO WE NEED?
THE FIRST OPINION
According to this book and the Hanbali Madhab as well and the opinion of Imam Ahmad and
the selected opinions of Imam Ash-Shafi’ee and Ibn al-Mundhir and Tirmidhi and the people
of Kufaah and Nawawi and the saying of Umar and Ali and Ibn Umar, Ibn Mubarak and many
others, the opinion they’d adopted is; one. One person. Their proof for that is the Hadith in
Abu Dawud and others and is authenticated by Ibn Hibban, al-Haakimi, Ibn Hazm and
others; where Ibn Umar radiya Allahu anhuma said, the people went out to pursuit the
moon so I informed the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. That I have seen it. He said
the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam order that everyone fast. Based on the sighting of
Ibn Umar that everyone fast. This Hadith is not Sahih Muslim. Some disputed on its
authenticity but it is authentic. In fact a lot of the ‘Ulamaa compared the men of the chain
to that which is Sahih Muslim.
The second proof is the one in Sunan Abu Dawud on the authority of Ibn Abbaas radhiallahu
anhuma that a Bedouin came to the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and I told the
Messenger I sighted moon. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said do you testify la
ilaaha illallah, he said; yes I do. He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said; do you testify that the
Page | 50
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the messenger of Allah, he said; yes. He said Bilal go
up and call that Ramadhaan has begun.
This Hadith of the Bedouin some ‘Ulamaa like Ibn Khuzaymah and Ibn Hibban consider it
authentic, while others consider it weak or Mursal. I believe been weak and Mursal is the
stronger opinion. So it is somewhat weak. But the first one the one on Ibn Umar is not. But
these Hadith specified that one person was sufficient for Ramadhaan. The Messenger took
the word of Ibn Umar by himself to announce and declare Ramadhaan. That’s the first
opinion, that’s correct opinion.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is by ‘Uqma radiya Allah ‘anhu, Maalik, al-Awzaì, al-Layth, and others
they said that and others, you need two for the start of Ramadhaan. Their proof is:
‫وإن ﺷﻬﺪ ﺷﺎﻫﺪان ذوا ﻋﺪل ﻓﺼﻮﻣﻮا وأﻓﻄﺮوا‬

The Hadith says: If two witness come forth then fast and break your fast to their sighting.
The first opinion response to that is:
‫وإن ﺷﻬﺪ ﺷﺎﻫﺪان‬

“If” two witnesses come forth, he didn’t say that you “need” two witnesses. That’s the first
response. He didn’t say you have to have two witnesses. He said “if” two witnesses. You
may infer that he meant two only but that’s not explicit in the Hadith. What the Hadith is
saying; if it so happens two comes forth, then except it. That’s not to say if one comes reject
it. You may infer that but it is not explicit in the Hadith. The Hadith used here if two come
forward general. The previous two Hadith the one of Ibn Umar of the Bedouin and clearly
accepting the testimony of one and especially the Hadith of Ibn Umar Hadith, because that
is the authentic one, it clearly except one. In a scenario like this the rule Usool is that there
is a specific Hadith and that’s the Hadith used by the first group where the Messenger
accepted the testimony of one, that’s specific. Then there is a general or non-explicit
Hadith which is the Hadith used by the second opinion, If two people come forward. The
issue that the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam accepted a single man’s testimony is
direct and specific.
The rule is the Usool rule is; if there is a conflict among a specific Hadith and a general one,
we try to combine. If combining is not possible then we give president based on an
additional factor. Now what’s the additional factor in this situation that we in? the
additional factor that we’re in is that the is one Hadith Ibn Umar specific and one that is
Page | 51
general which is if two people come forward. The specific Hadith of the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in this issue is; excepting the testimony of Ibn Umar radiya Allahu
anhuma alone. Keep in mind that is not only general verses specific. The Hadith, the second
group you used, is not even clear on accepting two as a requirement. It just merely said “if”
two come forward. Those are the two opinions on how many are requested to declare
Ramadhaan, in the beginning of Ramadhan, and we said the correct opinion is one.
THE THIRD OPINION
There is a unique third opinion. Some books of Fiqh don’t stated but it is unique. Abu
Haneefah said; during cloudy days we go by what the Hanabilah said; one is enough. If it’s a
clearly day we need more than one. It sounds inconsistent if you take it face value like that,
what on earth is Abu Haneefah Rahimahullah saying? But Abu Haneefah Rahimahullah said;
because if it is cloudy then it obvious not many are going to see it, so if one comes forth,
that’s you know, understandable and that is sufficient. On the other hand when it is a clear
day, there are many that are going to see it. So basically what he is trying to say is; I can’t
imagine one person seeing the moon on a clear day, therefore we need more than one.
While on a cloudy day, yes, because it’s cloudy. If one person comes, we’ll accept it.
CAN A WOMAN OR A SLAVE TESTIFY?

Now the next issue is the author says:
‫َوﻟَ ْﻮ اُﻧْـﺜَﻰ‬
Even if it is a female. In attached to that or tagged along with that is a slave. Meaning don’t
get the impression that the author is saying, is only male. If a female reports the sighting of
the moon with the condition we stated, then we take her testimony. The issue, is that really
true? Can a woman or a slave testify to the reporting of the moon sighting. There is a
dispute and the dispute is; based on; does one informing of the sighting of the moon, fall
under, the Shahaadah or Iqbaar? A woman or a slave reporting of a matter, that is called
Iqbaar, that is something called reporting, which is not at the level of testimony. If a woman
or a slave for example, teachers a Hadith, is called reporting, that is called narrating. We
except it even if it is one, that is called Iqbaar, that is called reporting, that is called relating
information, that is called passing on information. That not testimony, we have examples
where a woman in the chains of Hadith, reporting a Hadith. No one ever said bring me a
Hadith two women for this chain.
Is sighting the moon Iqbaar? If it is then a woman and a slave can report it and we don’t
need any more than that. Now if it is considered testimony, which called in Arabi
Page | 52
Shahaadah, then a woman or a slave alone are not accepted. The scrutiny is higher, a
woman and a slave are not accepted.
Ibn Hazm, Imam Ahmad, Ash-Shafi’i in one or two opinions , they considered this Iqbaar,
reporting, testimony, relating information, so a woman and a slave and a male are at the
same in this matter. Just like if they were to relate or convey a Hadith.
Another matter pertaining to this is since this is Iqbaar, not Shahaadah, it’s reported,
conveying information not testimony, there is no need for the ruler to announce it. You can
fast based on by a credible person reporting, because it’s not testimony. Testimony must be
brought before a ruler or a judge to decide. Now however, these days due to the ignorance
in the moon sighting and its conditions, it should be presented to ‘Ulamaa to make sure the
conditions of the sighting were met. That is to avoid the Fitan and ignorance in this issue.
The point is though, since it’s considered Iqbaar relaying information, not testimony as we
said, it does not need the ruling of a ruler or a judge for one to except. You can go by the
sighting of one who sighted it if they are credible and over the age of puberty and sane.
CAN A YOUNG BOY UNDER THE AGE OF PUBERTY REPORT THE

SIGHTING?
Another issue, if a young boy under the age of puberty reports a sighting, it’s not accepted
by overwhelming majority of ‘Ulamaa because the author said:
‫َﻋ ْﺪ ٍل ُﻣ َﻜﻠَﻒ‬
A young boy is not Mukallaf – he is not obligated to do commands of Islam. He is under the
age. He is not obligated to do the commands of Islam. So the stronger of two opinions, is
rejecting the testimony of someone who’s under the age of puberty.
HOW MANY WITNESSES ARE NEEDED TO TESTIFY TO THE END

OF RAMADHAAN?
Another issue, for the departing of Ramadhaan , the end of Ramadhaan, and all other
months and after that you must have two. There must be two male witnesses. What we
mentioned was merely an exception for the start of the Ramadhaan. What we mentioned
was exception for the start of Ramadhaan. This is the opinion like I said the overwhelming
majority of ‘Ulamaa except Abu Dhur; he said at the end of Ramadhaan, Shawwaal, the
moon for Shawwaal, one person is accepted just like the beginning of Ramadhaan. He used
analogy he used Qiyaas, he compared the end of the Ramadhaan to beginning of
Page | 53
Ramadhaan. He said if we accept one for the start of Ramadhaan, then we should accept
one at the end of Ramadhaan. He used analogy, Qiyaas. The response to Abu Dhur
Rahimahulllah is that the proof on this matter is clear, there is no need for Ijtihaad. Qiyaas,
analogy is good when we don’t have proof. But on this matter we have proof. Tirmithi said
there is no dispute that the end of Ramadhaan and every other month other than the
beginning of Ramadan we need two to testify.
By the way, side issue, Abu Dhur Rahimahullah is not a simple scholar many have not heard
of him, but he is an ‘Aalim and he is actually at the status of Imam Maalik Rahimahullah in
‘Ilm. He is at the status and knowledge of Imam Maalik. However it was said; that is was the
faults of his students of his student that his knowledge didn’t spread because they didn’t
really preserve his knowledge and spread it and convey it and gather it. That is why
sometimes, the failure of ‘Ulamaa is from themselves, a lot of the times. Some get for
example get fed up with dealing with people and how people treat and they say; you what?
Why do I have to deal with this. Let me get a peaceful life, close my door and go on my own.
And sometimes it’s the students who are the failures. Failures in how? In preserving
knowledge. Failures for example in spreading their knowledge and gathering their
knowledge and helping the ‘Ulamaa. Like now for example, some are so stingy they
wouldn’t even retweet for an ‘Aalim that they study with, and they claim day and night, this
is an ‘Aalim that we study with. Spread his knowledge if you really , really believe that
person is a trustworthy ‘Aalim, spread his knowledge. You get Ajr for that, you preserve the
knowledge and Inshaa Allah it will stay the knowledge until judgment in one way or another,
stay until judgment day we get continue to get reward. Abu Dhur Rahimahullah was among
the unfortunate is the student’s failures who didn’t preserve knowledge, his knowledge and
help him. And that is why they said wasn’t as famous as Imam Maalik, even though they
were at the same status.
Back to the Ramadhaan issue, the only reason the ‘Ulamaa, exempted this situation of
having two to testify in the beginning of Ramadhaan is because there is a specific Hadith on
that. So they said; in the beginning of Ramadhaan what we need is one, while at the end of
Ramadhaan every other month, we need two.
CLASS SEVEN
We stopped off at the statement by the author and he said:
‫ﺻ ُﺎﻣﻮا اﻷَ ْﺟ ِﻞ‬ ِ ٍ ِ ِ َ ‫ﻓَِﺎ ْن ﺻﺎﻣﻮا ﺑِ َﺸ َﻬ‬

َ ‫ اَ ْو‬، ‫ْﻬﻼ ُل‬
َ ‫ﻴﻦ ﻳَـ ْﻮًﻣﺎ ﻓَـﻠَ ْﻢ ﻳُـ َﺮ اﻟ‬
َ ‫ﺎدة َواﺣﺪ ﺛََﻼﺛ‬ َُ
‫ﻏَ ْﻴ ٍﻢ ﻟَ ْﻢ ﻳُـ ْﻔ ِﻄ ُﺮوا‬
Page | 54
He combined between two issues, pay close attention. He said in this statement; there two
issues. And you got to go over this again and again, take good notice, pay attention and go
over them so we can understand.
DETERMINING THE END OF RAMADHAAN
THE FIRST ISSUE
If we fast based on the sighting of one man in the beginning of Ramadhaan and then at the
end of Ramadhaan we are on the thirtieth day and we don’t sight Ramadan. That is the first
issue.
THE SECOND ISSUE
The second issue, if we fast in the beginning of Ramadan based on the day of doubt,
remember we talked about that issue? According to the wrong opinion of this author that if
it’s cloudy we fast that day. He adopts that we should fast that day that amounts to in
reality the day of doubt if it’s cloudy, when we go for sighting. What we do at the end of
Ramadhaan, when there is no confirmative sighting, now we are at the end of Ramadhaan,
the is no confirmed sighting at the end of Ramadan and it’s those two scenarios that
Ramadan started with then what he is saying; if we are at the thirtieth day of Ramadan,
there is no sighting and Ramadan started off by the sighting of one person or started off on
the day of doubt, then he says; we continue on and fast thirty-one days.
THE FIRST OPINION
First of all, let’s take it in detail. If two testified to the start of Ramadhaan and now we are
on the thirtieth day of the month, at the end of Ramadhaan, the next day is Eid and that is
agreed by the ‘Ulamaa. That is not even an issue, if Ramadhaan started with the testimony
of two. However the author makes a problem, and pay close attention to this; he is saying
over here, if one person testified and confirmed the sighting at the beginning of
Ramadhaan, he said the official Hanbali Madhab is that we fast the thirty-first day of
Ramadhaan, continue and fast the thirty-first day of Ramadhaan, and then the ‘Eid is after
that. Why? They based the decision of the end of Ramadhaan and how we end Ramadhaan
based on how Ramadhaan was initially confirmed. They based the decision of the end of
Ramadhaan on how Ramadan was initially confirmed. When there was no sighting at the
end of Ramadhaan, they went to how Ramadhaan was confirmed in the beginning. They
said must end by two witnesses.
Page | 55
Here at the of Ramadhaan is the thirtieth day, they said we should go on to fast thirty-one.
We don’t have any witnesses to testify. Why? They said if we end Ramadhaan at thirtieth,
we basically and reality are going based on the testimony of one man, that man, who is that
man? The man who testified in the start of Ramadhaan. We need two witnesses to end
Ramadhaan, they said if we say that this Ramadhaan completes at thirtieth day then, only
one testify to that. In reality we are taking the word of one man to the end of Ramadhaan.
The man who in reality testified to the start of Ramadhaan. We need two we don’t have
two, so what we’ll do is continue and we’ll fast thirty-one days. Basically they tied the end of
Ramadhaan to the sighting in the beginning. They said; we going to go for thirty-one days.
Why? Because we don’t have no sighting, we don’t have two witnesses and we can’t go by
thirty days because that means we take the testimony of one. Who is that one? The one
initially told us Ramadhaan started. That’s the opinion in the Hanbali Madhab.
THE SECOND OPINION
Another opinion in the Hanbali Madhab the opinion of Imam Ahmad and this is the correct
one and it’s the opinion Ash-Shaafi’ee’i and Abu Haneefah. If it’s at thirty days, Ramadhaan
reaches thirty days we don’t have anyone sighting, we don’t have two witnesses then we
finish thirty days the next day is the ‘Eid. Which is the obvious simple answer. Simple easy
answer. We don’t go by that thirty-one day opinion. We don’t relate and tie that to
Ramadhaan to how Ramadhaan started, as the first opinion claims to do. There is no
relationship between the two. Why? We started Ramadhaan on the testimony of one in
according to the Sunnah of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. We did that, it’s over
and done with. Now we are at the end of Ramadhaan, there is a totally new procedure here.
The new procedure is how we end Ramadhaan it has nothing to do with the beginning of
Ramadhaan. We go seek the moon on the thirtieth night of Ramadhaan. If we don’t see it
we complete Ramadhaan thirty days, that’s the way we do it, it has nothing to do with how
Ramadhaan was confirmed in the beginning. This is clearly the correct, simple, easy
opinion.
The first opinion they in a way trying to tie the end of the Ramadhaan to the beginning.
They said, ok it’s the end of Ramadhaan we don’t have two witness if we say we’ll go by
thirty days that means we in reality took the word of that man in the beginning, the one
who confirmed the sighting. That is wrong and weak rational and many ‘Ulamaa responded
to that.
The second issue is the same:
‫ﺻ ُﺎﻣﻮا اﻷَ ْﺟ ِﻞ ﻏَ ْﻴ ٍﻢ ﻟَ ْﻢ ﻳُـ ْﻔ ِﻄ ُﺮوا‬

َ ‫اَ ْو‬
The second opinion the author says if we are on the thirtieth day of Ramadhaan there is no
sighting, we don’t have two witnesses. But this scenario is different than the one I just
Page | 56
mentioned, where they said the beginning of Ramadhaan started with one man. Over here
they are saying; if Ramadhaan started because of fasting the day of doubt where the sky
wasn’t clear. Remember that’s the issue we discussed in which the author adopted the
wrong opinion of fasting when the sky is not clear, which we said is Haraam and that in
reality amounts to the day of doubt. Now he is basing in the end of Ramadhaan on that.
Let’s assume Ramadhaan started by fasting that day of doubt. What do we do? He said; we
fast thirty-one days just like the previous scenario. Why? He said because we were unsure.
They may be correct that they need to fast thirty-one days since the start of Ramadhaan
based on doubt and we said that’s the improper and even Haraam way to start. But this is
not a scenario we even deal with, this one, this statement of the author. It’s not even a
scenario we even deal with. Why? They should not have started Ramadhaan like we said
earlier based on fasting that day of doubt because they said; if it is unclear sky we are going
to start our fast. They shouldn’t even do that to start off with. The method used to start
Ramadhaan that they used was wrong. Now at the end of Ramadhaan like the previous
scenario, it doesn’t connect and tie to the beginning of Ramadhaan. You started Ramadhaan
wrong that’s the whole issue there. Now it’s the end of Ramadhaan, either we sight the
moon or complete thirty days without anything to do with the start of Ramadhaan. And
keep in mind like we said, this is not even a scenario that we shouldn’t we even be dealing
with because we said early on that the scenario of fasting the day when it’s cloudy, based on
doubt it’s a wrong opinion.
IF A PERSON SEES THE MOON FOR THE START OF RAMADHAAN

WHILST ALONE
ِ ِ
َ ‫ اَ ْوَراَى ﻫ َﻼ َل َﺷ ﱠﻮ ِال‬,ُ‫ﻀﺎ َن َوُرﱠد ﻗَـ ْﻮﻟُﻪ‬
‫ﺻ َﺎم‬ َ ‫رﻣ‬
َ ‫َوَﻣ ْﻦ َراَى َو ْﺣ َﺪﻩُ ﻫ َﻼ َل‬
In this statement, if a person, the author goes on to say, if a person sees the moon for the
start of Ramadan alone. He is alone and he sees the moon. Or if he goes to the judge or the
Khaleefah and they rejected his testimony, that’s one. B, if the person sees the moon at the
end of Ramadhaan, in both of those scenarios I just mentioned he continues to fast.
Let’s break that down. Someone sights the moon, he is alone. Somewhere in the world he is
alone he sight the moon, he must fast. Because we said for the beginning of Ramadan all
you need is one. He himself, one, he witness Ramadan, all you need is one, you start. That’s
the first one.
Or the author is saying, if one person sights the moon he goes to the Khaleefah, he goes to
the judge, he goes to the Shaykh, and they refused his testimony. Maybe he has credibility
Page | 57
issue, maybe the Shaykh or the judge rejected him for his eyesight or for any other reasons.
His rejected, he must begin to fast Ramadan on his own. For him Ramadhaan began.
So in summary, if a Muslim sees the moon on his own, he must fast. Whether it maybe he is
some part of the globe alone by himself, he’s travelling all by himself or the Shaykh, the
judge, the Khaleefah rejected his testimony and either scenario he sighted the moon, he
fast.
IF A PERSON SEES THE MOON AT THE END OF RAMADHAAN

WHILST ALONE
That’s the first part of the statement. Then the author says; if a person sees the moon for
the end of Ramadhaan which is the moon for Shawwaal, he sees the moon at the end of
Ramadhaan, he sees it by himself. Does he continue to fast or declare ‘Eid on his own? We
say; if he sees the moon in the start of Ramadan he got to fast, even if alone. Now at the
end of Ramadhaan he sees the moon for the end of Ramadhaan. We say he can’t break his
fast at the end of Ramadhaan. Why? Are you being inconsistent? We said for the end of
Ramadhaan, how many do we need? Two. For the beginning of Ramadhaan, how many do
we need? One.
Now let me repeat that statement like the author said it and you’ll understand very well.
Here how the author said it. If sees the moon for the start of Ramadhaan alone or his
testimony is rejected or if a person sees the moon for the end of Ramadan, he fast in both
scenario. That is exactly how the author worded.
THE FIRST OPINION
Now let’s go and back track a little bit the statement in a little bit more detailed. I sight the
moon alone or I sight the moon and the leader says; you’re rejected we are not going to
take your testimony. The author said; I should fast, my Ramadan begins even the rest of the
Ummah didn’t start. That is for the beginning. This is the opinion of the majority of ‘Ulamaa
and among them is Imam Ahmad, Maalik, Ash-Shafi’ee, Ahlur-Ray and Ibn al-Mundhir and
others, he must fast on his own even the Ummah didn’t fast. He sighted the moon and all it
takes is one to sight the moon and he himself is one, that’s it.
What is the proof on that?

Page | 58
Whoever witness the month must fast. They may have no one confirmed to testify or
witness to it, you yourself once you seen it, you witnessed the month. They haven’t
witnessed it but you witness it. So this verse applies to you, you must start your
Ramadhaan.
Also proof:

ُ‫ﺻ‬ ُ
Like the verse he said, fast for the sighting of the new moon and break your fast for the
sighting of the new moon. To you who’ve seen it is confirmed, you’ve seen it, you’ve sighted
it, you follow along you fast. For them they didn’t its not confirmed the testimony is
rejected.
The third proof on this matter is that, to that person that person, to that individual,
Ramadan been confirmed by his own sighting. He witness Ramadhaan based on his own
sighting. To the others since the testimony was rejected or he’s alone, it’s still Sha’baan and
that is how we go by.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion and it’s an opinion attributed to Imam Ahmad Hanbal, is what Ibn
Taymiyyah adopts, al-Hassan al-Basri, Ibn Sireer and others adopts. But it’s not the official
Hanbali Madhab. The official Hanbali Madhab is the first opinion I mentioned. This opinion
the said; the person should reject his own testimony; he should start Ramadhaan on his
own. Their proof for that the Ummah needs to start Ramadhaan as an Ummah.
‫ﻮﻣﻮ َن‬
ُ‫ﺼ‬ ُ َ‫ﺻ ْﻮُﻣ ُﻜ ْﻢ ﻳَـ ْﻮَم ﺗ‬
َ
You fast the day people fast, the Hadith says. You slaughter the day people slaughter. The
Hadith means the Ummah as a whole fast together. If the conditions are met, that’s true,
the Ummah fast as an Ummah. The problem is this person sighted the moon on his own or
he was rejected, so Ramadhaan been confirmed to this person individually. The Hadith:
‫ﻮﻣﻮ َن‬
ُ‫ﺼ‬ ُ َ‫ﺻ ْﻮُﻣ ُﻜ ْﻢ ﻳَـ ْﻮَم ﺗ‬
َ
Meaning it implies the Ummah should fast together. Yes that’s in general circumstance,
however here there is an exceptional situation where the individual has confirmed the
beginning of Ramadhaan based on his own sighting.
Page | 59
The ‘Ulamaa of the second opinion told the ‘Ulamaa of the first opinion, you’re telling this
man, to fast on his own? Are you saying that if he sights the moon for Dhul Hijjah on his
own. If you sight, if this man sights the moon for Dhul Hijjah, the start of Dhul Hijjah on his
own. Yet the Ummah fast another day, does he go, since it Dhul Hijjah, does he go in al-
Arafaat by himself and then the next day the Hujaaj go, and then Minah on the different day
of the Ummah or he goes to stone the Shaytaan on different day of the Ummah? The Hujaaj
are doing one thing and he is doing another thing because he seen the moon on his own.
The first go and responded back and they say; no, you got it wrong. The month we allow the
testimony of one, is only the start of Ramadhaan. The end of Ramadhaan, every other
month including Dhul Hijjah need the testimony of two, so your rational is unfounded.
Ibn Taymiyyah who’s part of the people who took the second opinion used to adopt the
special opinion, that many disagreed with and the crescent the Hilaal is not really
considered a Shar’ee Hilaal unless it becomes widespread known and popular among the
people. He considered that as an additional restriction. Many of the ‘Ulamaa disagreed with
him on that rational.
As to the Hadith that implies fasting the Ummah or the group, the fasting is the fasting of
the group, the second opinion, that is an overall general situation. That’s how it usually is,
but there’s exceptions because if one confirms the sighting on his own he witness Ramadan
on his own. But the overall situation is that the Ummah of course fasts as a whole.
YOU DO NOT DECLARE YOUR OWN EID

The next point:
ِ
َ ‫اَ ْو َراَى ﻫ َﻼ َل َﺷ ﱠﻮ ٍال‬
‫ﺻ َﺎم‬
This individual sees the crescent of the end of Ramadhaan, which is the Hilaal that belongs
to Shawwaal, he sees it on his own. Someone sees the moon that starts off the month of
Shawwaal, which is the month after Ramadhaan, that means Ramadhaan is over. Doesn’t he
go and fast on his own? No, we already said that. Why?
THE FIRST OPINION
The majority opinion; Hanafiyyah, Malikiyyah, Haanabilah, and of course the author of this
book adopted; if you see the Hilaal the crescent for the end of Ramadhaan alone, you don’t
declare your own ‘Eid, nor do you break your fast, you have to fast the next day. Why?
Because he’s one man, the rule of the end of Ramadhaan we need two.
THE SECOND OPINION
Page | 60
Now a second opinion, Malikiyyah, Shafi’iyyah, Ibn ‘Aaqil and Ibn Hazam said he breaks his
fast, but he doesn’t do so publicly so to avoid the Fitnah or the accusation. Why? Why does
he do in secrecy? Because for example a woman on her menstrual cycle or a traveller who is
excused, they’re exempted from fasting. But they shouldn’t be walking around eating out of
respect to the month of Ramadhaan, out of respect to Muslims, and more importantly to
avoid of being accused. In fact some narrated Ijmaa’ that if one is allowed to break his fast,
if someone allowed to break his fast during the month of Ramadhaan for an excuse, it
should be don’t in secrecy.
THE CORRECT OPINION
The correct opinion of those two opinions is that; he does not break his fast if he sees the
moon for the end of Ramadhaan. Why? They said he could be mistaken, that’s OK. But the
more important reason is because we know by proof that to end Ramadhaan or every other
month be it beginning and end it requires two witnesses. Someone will say you’re in
consistent, you say in the previous statement of the author that if one individual sights the
moon of Ramadhaan and his Imam rejects him, he fast on his own. Which is correct. Then
you’re trying to tell me at the end of Ramadhaan he sights the moon for the end of
Ramadhaan, he should not break his fast? He should not declare ‘Eid on his own? Or at least
break his fast? You’re being inconsistent they’re say. Notice how delicate Fiqh is.
We need by proof one to confirm the start of Ramadhaan. If he seen the crescent, the moon
for Ramadhaan he was rejected he must fast, because all it takes is one. We have the proof
on that, we’re people who follow proof. To him it became obligated to fast. Whereas the
end of Ramadhaan we’re not being in consistent because the proof tells us that for the end
of Ramadhaan and every other month other than the beginning of Ramadhaan, you need
two for the beginning and end. And he is one alone so he doesn’t break his fast.
IF TWO CREDIBLE PEOPLE SAW THE MOON BUT DID NOT

INFORM THE LEADER
Let’s assume that two people seen the crescent, they’re credible, they didn’t go to the
leader for some reason. Do we listen to them? First of all, he does not need to go to the
leader or a judge to declare as a condition for him? Why? Because it falls under, we said,
reporting or informing, in falls under Iqbaar. Not Shahaadah which is testimony. If it is
Iqbaar, is like reporting or informing or narrating Hadith, or calling the Athaan, is like
relating information. The Shahaadah is different, is testimony, the Shahaadah is to go the
judge to declare it. Looking into the situation and then declare it. Ibn Qudaamah and Al
Mughni said if two credible has seen the Hilaal the moon of Ramadan, they can break their
Page | 61
fast, because the testimony of each other. As well as anyone else who knows these two
people knows they’re are credible.
‫ﻮﻣﻮا َوأَﻓْ ِﻄ ُﺮوا‬

ُ‫ﺼ‬
ِ ِ
ُ َ‫ ﻓ‬، ‫ﻓَِﺈ ْن َﺷ ِﻬ َﺪ َﺷﺎﻫ َﺪان‬
Sunan an-Nasa’i, the Hadith says if two witnesses testify, then break you fast, according to
their sighting. This is not considered a testimony which needs the judge to scrutinize it. Al
Mughni said if those two see the crescent of Ramadhaan, they can break their fast for each
other’s testimony. Others in the Madhab of Ahmad disputed that but that’s the correct
opinion because that is what the Hadith implies.
DO WE ACCEPT THEIR TESTIMONY IF IT IS REJECTED BY THE JUDGE?
Another scenario, they go to the imam and judge two of them. They inform the judge that
they’ve seen the moon. While walking out words spreads that two people seen the moon.
Do we go by their testimony if their testimony gets rejected by the judge? The answer to
that is it depends on why the judge rejected their testimony. If he rejected their testimony
because the statues of their credibility is unknown, then the judge didn’t really rule on that,
just doesn’t know if their trustworthy. Those who hear and know those two people and
know their credible, can they follow each other’s testimony. And those who know them can
break their fast based on these guys testimony. The judge didn’t rule because he doesn’t
know their statues. That’s the first scenario.
If the judge rejected them because they are Faasiq, is confirmed to the judge one of them or
both of them, then you cannot use the testimony because the Imam ruled based on what he
has of knowledge of these people.
TWO PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW THE STATUS OF EACH

OTHER
Another scenario, if two people say we seen we we’ve seen the moon, they meet up in a
Masjid. One man says, I’ve seen the moon and the other says, oh I did too. But they don’t
know the status of each other. Do they break their fast and declare ‘Eid? Because each one
of them said oh I’ve seen the moon and the other said, I’ve seen? No, why? Because they
each independently confirmed the sighting, but they don’t know the status of each other.
He could be credible, he could be a Faasiq. So you don’t take the other persons one if you
don’t his status.
ONE WHO IS IN PRISON OR A SIMILAR SITUATION

Page | 62
Another scenario, someone maybe in prison or in some kind of situation, any Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala protect you and guard you from that. Someone doesn’t know if it is
Ramadhaan, if it has started or not. He’s in prison, if he’s in a solitary, he doesn’t know what
month it is. That actually happened to me, my first night in prison I woke up to the Eid. I was
in a solitary, the first night I woke up and it was Eid. There is no phone, there is no
communication, no one is going to talk to you and tell you. Some are held in prison where
they may not know the entire month. If this is Ramadan, if this is Muharam? They may lose
tracks of weeks or month not just days.
What do they do? Simple, you do Ijtihaad. Ijtihaad the best way you can. That’s like facing
the Qiblah, you are in a place where you don’t know where Qiblah is. You must face the
Qiblah to make your Salah. But you are not good at directions, east, west and north, you’re
not good at it. You don’t have the App on your phone, you can’t ask. You do Ijtihaad the
best way you can and you make your Salah. The same is for the start and end of Ramadhaan
for one who’s in prison and lost communication with the world and he can’t ask or seek or
pursuit that matter.
Take a scenario based on that, if he found out during Ramadan is Ramadan and he guessed
and his Ijtihaad his good, he’s good. That’s the first scenario. The second one is he found out
that what he fasted turned out to be after Ramadhaan, that’s good because is like the
statues of someone who made up Ramadhaan. There is no problem with that. He fasted
August and Ramadan turned out to be in June. Is as if he made up Ramadhaan, that’s good,
his Ijtihaad is good, he did the best he could.
The third scenario he fasted a month, then suddenly he gets a letter from his family telling
him in two days Ramadhaan is going to start. Or the guard or chaplain or someone tells him
in a few days Ramadhaan is going to start. He already fasted the month. What does he do?
What he did, he did in the wrong timing, he gets Ajr but Ramadhaan he must fast again.
That’s like for example making Asr, someone made Asr, they go visit friends and friends say,
Yalla lets go to the Masjid and make Asr. He says; what you are guys talking about, I made
Asr about an hour ago. May phone was wrong, the timing of my phone was wrong or maybe
he was listening to the Qur’an radio station in Makkah, they called the Athaan, and he
thought it was his App on his phone, it was that Athaan but it was really the Athaan for
another Salah in Makkah and he prayed Asr an our ago. Does he say; ok you guys go to the
Masjid I already made it? No, got to do it again.
IF ONE FINDS OUT FIFTEEN DAYS OUT OF THIRTY WERE IN

SHA’BAAN
Page | 63
These types of scenarios they can go on and on. Let’s take another one, final one. If one for
example if one fasted thirty days and he found out fifteen of those turned out to be of
Sha’baan, the month before Ramadan and fifteen was part of Ramadan. The fifteen before
Ramadan he needs to make them up. He did them before the proper time. That’s like one
who prayed Asr before its time. Or similar to that if he fasted thirty days and he finds out
days he fasted where days of Eid of Dhul Hijjah or the ‘Eid of Ramadhaan, the tree days of
Dhul Hijjah or the ‘Eid of Ramadhaan, some of the days that he was fasting thinking that
Ramadhaan turned out to be ‘Eid, the Eid of Dhul Hijjaah, which is three days or the ‘Eid of
Ramadhaan. What does he do? He must make up those days its Haraam to fast those days.
There are some scenarios that may come in handy in future or give you broaden lightening
your mind as to how the ‘Ulamaa think and actually these scenarios can go on and on and
we don’t want to go beyond our time.
HOMEWORK
What I advice however is you take this and the notes you taking, go over them again and
again. You have to do homework on your own, to be a Fiqhy you have to do homework on
your own. Go over this again and again and you may want to listen to the audio again,
possibly that’s even as good as going over your notes. Listen to the audio several times.
Then you are going to realise that what we saying is going to sink in. Why? For two reasons;
the start of this book is somewhat difficult, I am trying to break it down as easy as I can and I
ask Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala to aid me in that but the start of this booklet is slightly
difficult. You know these issues are slightly difficult and also you’re in a beginning of a new
knowledge this is Fiqh. Like in Tawheed the beginning some were having difficulty in
understanding but as time goes on, after ten classes, then twenty classes, Alhamdulillah I
think we went beyond thirty if I am not mistaken. People find it easier, the same with this.
After a while you are going to learn how the ‘Ulamaa think and how they go back and forth
in their proof and its going to become much easier, so it’s difficult that the substance of
what we study in the first part of this book this matter of this book is much practical for you
as an individual.
The sighting and that you know someone will say that’s not practical but that’s part of Fiqh
and we have to go by the curriculum, but it’s slightly difficult. It’s slightly difficult and that
the substance of what we study is difficult. Also it’s difficult in that most of you are in the
process of starting the learning of Fiqh which is part of new knowledge. So you got to take
your and gradually break in to understanding the Fiqh. That’s why I advise you to go over
your notes several times, go over the audio. You get Ajr for that, you sitting at home you
want to understand this Fiqh, and you want to understand this ‘Ilm. That is an Ibaadah. You
purify your intention.
Page | 64
You don’t just go to a Halaqah. You know, in universities, what you study in universities they
tell you, you have to do five hours equivalent or so on of homework in your house to sink in
and register. It’s more than that with this Ilm. You just go and say; Wallahi I attended a
Halaqah and that’s it, you put your books at home and you don’t open it until next day or
until the following class. No you got to go over it and over it. You wouldn’t find no ‘Aalim,
that used to go to a Halaqah and like many perceive or assume, he put his books away and
the next day he wipes the dusts off them and go take the books to the next Halaqah. No in
between that there’s a lot of study going. Just like I told you don’t spend your time
memorizing but most definitely, if it is a Hadith try to memorize it if you can. But like I said
the wordings of this book is difficult and focus more on trying to understand that. That’s my
advice to you.
CLASS EIGHT
We left off at the author’s statement:
ٍ ‫ﺼﻮ ُم ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ﻣﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ ﻣ َﻜﻠﱠ‬

‫ﻒ ﻗَ ِﺎد ٍر‬ ُ ُْ ْ ‫َوﻳَـﻠ َْﺰُم اﻟ ﱠ‬
When you reflect on of the work of the ‘Ulamaa who’s book we, you see very well its
structure and organised although it may not be not appears to be so. Not only do we learn
the Fiqh of fasting with this type of work, we study the work of the classical ‘Ulamaa, but
you also learn how they structured their work. Which makes it easier for you to go through
in the future and it is also makes it easier to go refer to it when you need it as a reference.
That’s all some of the bonuses you get on top of the knowledge you again from studying
their work. Therefore pay attention to the organisation of the book just like you do to the
substance of what we study. That’s why everyone has to have their own copy. One needs to
be very familiar with the books of the Ulamaa, very familiar. And you have to know where it
is at, and how to get it and where to look for it. That’s why we based and attach our study
on their work.
WHO IS OBLIGATED TO FAST?

Notice the order here, after he mentions how Ramadhaan starts and the next issue would
be who is the one that is going to fast? what type of people is going to fast? who must fast?
he said:
ٍ ‫ﺼﻮ ُم ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ﻣﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ ﻣ َﻜﻠﱠ‬

‫ﻒ ﻗَ ِﺎد ٍر‬ ُ ُْ ْ ‫َوﻳَـﻠ َْﺰُم اﻟ ﱠ‬
Page | 65
He said: Wa Yalzamu (‫ْﺰ ُم‬
َ ‫) َوﻳَـﻠ‬. Yalzamu (‫ )ﻳَـﻠ َْﺰُم‬is a word that the author used instead of Yajibu
(‫ﺐ‬ ِ
ُ ‫ )ﻳَﺠ‬meaning is obligatory. It can be used interchangeably to say that it must, it
proscribed, it’s obligatory, is a Fardh. But why did he use Wa Yalzamu instead of Fardh or
Waajib? Really the reason he did that was to change the terms in his writing as an artistic
way of keeping the reader attached and interested and thinking while he goes through his
book and this is widespread among the Fuqahaa’. Sometime they use Wa Yalzamu instead
of Yajibu, but you’ll know that when he says Yalzamu, he is saying Yajibu. You know that also
through the context of the sentence that he’s stating.
He said fasting is waajib or Yalzamu, fasting is Waajib, is fard, is obligatory. Is all fasting
waajib or is he talking some type of specific fasting? He’s talking actually about a certain
type of fasting, which is the Waajib type naming speaking; Ramadhaan. He didn’t specify
that, but he means; Ramadhaan. How do we know that? Because we said in Arabi and I
went through it through it I believe in the Tawheed classes and also on these classes. AL ( (‫ال‬
- the in As-Sawmu (‫ﺼ ْﻮ ُم‬

‫ )اﻟ ﱠ‬refers to as:
‫اﻟﻌﻬﺪ اﻟﻈﻬﻠﻰ‬
We took what Al’ahd Alzihli means. Al’ahd Alzihli in Arabic grammar means that it refers to
that which you know. Meaning the fasting that is obviously on your mind, the fasting that is
understood by common sense for one who is reading this. Meaning Al’ahd Alzihli that is
automatically understood by the listener what I am trying to say, so there is no need to
specify it. What fasting is he talking about that we really understand when we read it? He is
talking about the fasting of Ramadhaan. So ‘Al’ in as-Sawmu is Al’ahd Aldhihli.
The author says:
‫ﺼ ْﻮ ُم ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ُﻣ ْﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ‬
‫َوﻳَـﻠ َْﺰُم اﻟ ﱠ‬
What is prescribed? He said; fasting Ramadhaan on every Muslim is prescribed. That is a
very general and broad statement.
‫ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ُﻣ ْﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ‬

He wants to tell us now who Ramadhaan is prescribed on. Who are the people must fast?
The first condition for fasting that he is states, is one being Muslim, you must be a Muslim.
When we say Islam is a condition for fasting or if you read it in other chapters of the Fiqh
Page | 66
books, you’ll see that Islam is a condition for Salah. He is not trying to exempt a Kaafir from
Salah, is telling you from a Fuqahaa' prospective that in order for you to for fulfill the Salah
or the Siyaam who have to be able a Muslim, is a condition. In order for the fast to be
accepted it, it must be from a Muslim, that is what they’re trying to tell you. I am going to
elaborate on this point a little bit later on Inshaa Allah.
IF ONE EMBRACES ISLAM ON EID
So the issue, we have an issue here; for some example, we have some issues here, if one
embraces Islam on the day of ‘Eid does he need to make up that entire Ramadhaan? He
comes on the ‘Eid declares his Shahaadah in front of everyone. No, he doesn’t make up his
Ramadhaan. The day he took his Shahaadah was like the day he was born, free of his sins.
He is on a fresh slate and a fresh beginning. That day it’ll be with a clean slate with Allah
subhaanahu wa ta'aala he doesn’t have to make up any of the Ramadan that passed. It is
considered by Ijmaa’, by consensuses that when a non-Muslim embraces Islam, takes his
Shahaadah he does not make up the fasting of the previous Ramadhaan.
What’s the proof on that? The is Ijmaa’ and there is plenty there proof.
ِ
َ ‫ﻗُﻞ ﻟﱢﻠﱠﺬ‬
َ َ‫ﻳﻦ َﻛ َﻔ ُﺮوا إِن ﻳَﻨﺘَـ ُﻬﻮا ﻳُـ ْﻐ َﻔ ْﺮ ﻟَ ُﻬﻢ ﱠﻣﺎ ﻗَ ْﺪ َﺳﻠ‬
﴾٣٨ :‫ ﴿اﻷﻧﻔﺎل‬...‫ﻒ‬
Say to those who have disbelieved, if they cease (from disbelief) their past will be forgiven.
(Surat al-Anfaal: 38)
‫ﻳُـ ْﻐ َﻔ ْﺮ ﻟَ ُﻬﻢ ﱠﻣﺎ‬

Means everything in the pass will be forgiven. Including is the past Ramadhaan that they did
not fast.
There is a Hadith when the tribe of Wafd-Thaqif, they came to the Masjid of the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and embraced Islam with the Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam. They camped in the Masjid, they stayed in the Masjid the Hadith says; they
fasted the remainder of that Ramadhaan, meaning they didn’t fast what they missed in the
early, in the first portion of Ramadhaan when they we not Muslim. After they became
Muslim, they fasted the remainder part of that Ramadhaan. They started their fast after
they became Muslim and the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did not direct them to
make up past Ramadhaan. If it was obligatory on him, he would have said after Ramadhaan
is done, the day that missed of this Ramadhaan, make them up. But he didn’t say that,
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
Page | 67
If one became Muslim on the second day of Ramadhaan for example; he starts fasting right
after for the remainder of that month, whether twenty-seven or twenty-eight more days.
There is no dispute, is Ijmaa’ an original Kaafir who embraces Islam, takes his Shahaadah, he
doesn’t make up any of the previous Ramadhaan or days of Ramadhaan that he missed out
on before his Shahaadah. His fasting during Kufr invalidates the fast. It not acceptable and
his Islam is forgiveness for any Ramadhaan or days of Ramadhaan that he missed out on,
along with of course all his previous sins. He is like a new born free and clear from his sins
like a new born, a new start. Now that’s the original Kaafir.
IF HE IS A MURTAD
The next issue we have here is, what if he is a Murtad? Murtad means an apostate, one who
was Muslim and then left Islam. Some rulings that pertain to Murtad are different overall if
you look at them there is many rulings that protein to a Murtad that are different than a
original Kaafir even though both are considered Kaafir. Both apostate and an original Kaafir
fall under the term Kaafir, but there’s some slight difference. A Murtad is much worse than
original Kaafir.
Now there is a Murtad who came back to Islam, he was an apostate for some time and then
he decided to come back to Islam, wal 'iyaadu billah that he left Islam and many who
become Atheist and then the decide to come back to Islam. While, we said, an original
Kaafir doesn’t have to make up past Ramadhaan after he embraces Islam by Ijmaa’, no
dispute. A Murtad an apostate is slightly different in this issue and that is disputed, whether
he needs to make up previous Ramadhaan that he missed while he was Murtad or not. So
the only difference this man is slightly disputed for a Murtad. However the overall and
majority says that an apostate does not need to make up the fast that he missed out on
while he was a Kaafir, a non-Muslim.
Imam Ahmad in his one of two opinions said he needs to make up. The correct opinion of
those two opinions is that apostates are like an original Kaafir. The same Hukm applies to
him, the same rulings applies to him. They don’t have to make up missed Ramadhaan. Why?
Same verse applies to him, they fall under the same categories, same term.
ِ
َ ‫ﻗُﻞ ﻟﱢﻠﱠﺬ‬
َ َ‫ﻳﻦ َﻛ َﻔ ُﺮوا إِن ﻳَﻨﺘَـ ُﻬﻮا ﻳُـ ْﻐ َﻔ ْﺮ ﻟَ ُﻬﻢ ﱠﻣﺎ ﻗَ ْﺪ َﺳﻠ‬
﴾٣٨ :‫ ﴿اﻷﻧﻔﺎل‬...‫ﻒ‬
Say to those who have disbelieved, if they cease (from disbelief) their past will be forgiven.
(Surat al-Anfaal: 38)
That Kufr, the term Kaafir in that verse is broad, and it encompasses both original Kaafir who
is a Kaafir and an apostate who falls under the term Kaafir as well. So there is no room or
no need to distinguish between the two in this matter. Had we have specific proof on that,
then yes we would distinguish between the two in this matter, but there is no specific proof
Page | 68
on that issue. A Murtad or an apostate is a branch of Kufr, just like an original Kaafir is
another branch of Kufr. Is merely a different branches to Kufr. So once a Kaafir embrace his
Islam or an apostate returns, he does not need to make up any missed Ramadhaan, Allah
will forgive their past Inshaa Allah.
IF ONE TAKES HIS SHAHAADAH AT DHUHR TIME IN RAMADHAAN
Another issue or rather a scenario. We said a Kaafir does not make up past Ramadhaan and
we said and an apostate follows along with that and the correct of two opinions on that
matter. The day they embrace Islam Allah forgives all.
﴾٥٣ :‫ ﴿اﻟﺰﻣﺮ‬...‫ﻮب َﺟ ِﻤ ًﻴﻌﺎ‬ ِ

َ ُ‫إِ ﱠن اﻟﻠﱠ َـﻪ ﻳَـ ْﻐﻔ ُﺮ اﻟ ﱡﺬﻧ‬...
Verily Allah forgives all sins. (Surat az-Zumar: 53)
What if a Kaafir, a non-Muslim takes his Shahaadah at Dhuhr time in one of the days of
Ramadhaan? We said he doesn’t make up past Ramadhaan or past days while he wasn’t
Muslim, he doesn’t have to do that. No matter how many days or years if he became
Muslim when he was sixty years old he doesn’t have to do single day or years from the past
ones. But now he is one his second day of Ramadan he comes to the Masjid at Dhuhr time
or Asr time and he says; I want to declare my Shahaadah. Previous days they first day of that
Ramadhaan he doesn’t have to make it up, previous Ramadhaan he doesn’t have to make
up. That particular day that he became Muslim does he need to make it up on not?
This is a very, very close dispute among the ‘Ulamaa. The overwhelming majority the
Jamhoor, he on that day for sure he abstains from anything that voids fast. From the point
that he became Muslim. Like he does no longer after he become Muslim, he doesn’t eat,
drink or have intercourse with his wife for the rest of that day. But since he became Muslim
on that day, they said; is safer for him to make up that day after Ramadhaan. That’s
probably the best opinion, there is no proof either way on that so the Jamhoor rational is
probably closes to being right.
IS RAMADHAAN WAAJIB ON A KAAFIR?
Now there is an issue, the author said; Ramadhaan is Waajib on a Muslim. Is the author here
trying to imply or when you read this in Fiqh books, all over. Are they trying to imply that
Ramadhaan is not Waajib on a Kaafir? This goes back to a major issue in Usool. That major
issue is; are detailed obligations of Islam prescribed upon a Kaafir? Tawheed is directed and
prescribed on a Kaafir. But what about the details of Islam like; hajj, fasting, not dealing in
usury or not committing Zina? Do the orders of Allah like fasting encompass a Kaafir? Or is it
just major Tawheed that they’re directed with?
Page | 69
The correct opinion on this matter is that; the word of Allah, the speech of Allah, the
commands of Allah is directed to Kuffaar (non Muslims) in both the principle (which is the
Tawheed) and also in the detailed orders of Islam. Some of the ‘Ulamaa I’ve read, narrated
an Ijmaa’ on this issue, but there is a dispute. How can there be a dispute when there is an
Ijmaa’? The ‘Ulamaa justified that, early on there was an Ijmaa’ and that’s should be
sufficient. But a dispute developed later on over time. The fact that there is an Ijmaa’ should
not have left any room for any dispute after that. Tawheed is directed to a Kaafir no doubt,
no one disputes that. But for example, let’s take for example fasting, is he obligated to fast
as a Kaafir? Is the command of Allah, the speech of Allah ordering to fast include a Kaafir?
Yes, the author’s statement fasting is waajib upon a Muslim, does not mean fasting is not
waajib on a kaafir, that’s not what he is saying. It means fasting is Waajib on a Muslim which
means it’s not accepted from a Kaafir in his status of Kufr, whether he is an original Kaafir or
an apostate. The order of fasting in other commands are directed to a Kaafir as well, and he
is obligated to fast. But to do so, first he needs to fulfill the condition of embracing Islam.
Therefore for he’s not saying that fasting is not obligatory on him, he is saying fasting is not
accepted. So when the Fuqahaa’ say that they saying that fasting is not accepted while there
on the status of Kufr. Fulfill that condition before you fast.
Allah said:
...‫َوَﻣﺎ َﻣﻨَـ َﻌ ُﻬ ْﻢ أَن ﺗُـ ْﻘﺒَ َﻞ ِﻣ ْﻨـ ُﻬ ْﻢ ﻧَـ َﻔ َﻘﺎﺗُـ ُﻬ ْﻢ إِﱠﻻ أَﻧﱠـ ُﻬ ْﻢ َﻛ َﻔ ُﺮوا ﺑِﺎﻟﻠﱠ ِـﻪ َوﺑَِﺮ ُﺳﻮﻟِ ِﻪ‬
﴾٥٤ : ‫﴿اﻟﺘﻮﺑﺔ‬
And nothing prevents their contributions from being accepted from them except that they
disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger (Muhammad sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam). (Surat
at-Tawbah: 54)
Nothing prevents their contribution, their charity from being accepted from them except
that they disbelieved in Allah and His messenger. They disbelieving in Allah and the
Messenger deprived their charity of being accepted. Charity is not accepted due to their
Kufr. Likewise fasting is not accepted due to their Kufr. Join Islam, become Muslim so that it
will be accepted. The author is trying enlighten us that fasting of a non-Muslim who abstains
from predawn to sunset while he is a Kaafir is rejected, that’s what the author is trying to
say. He didn’t fulfill the first rule of fasting, the first condition of fasting, which is Islam. Just
like abstaining from food from predawn to sunset is a condition, a condition of fasting in
Islam. And Islam is a condition pertains to that person. Just like purification is a condition for
your Salah to be accepted, Islam is a precondition for fasting to be accepted.
Page | 70
The order of Allah to fasting is directed to a non-Muslim and a Muslim. The author’s
statement only and merely means that before he needs to fulfill the first condition of being
a Muslim in order for that fast to be accepted. And why I point out this, is because this you’ll
find it all throughout the Fiqh books, they’re going to tell you, your Salah; the first condition
for your Salah for example is a Muslim, Hajj as Muslim, they are not trying to exempt a non-
Muslim from the command. There just trying to say that, that’s the condition.
What’s the proof that details of Islam are directed to a non-Muslim and they’re obligated to
follow them? Among that is the broad general speech:
ُ ‫ﻳَﺎ أَﻳﱡـ َﻬﺎ اﻟﻨ‬

﴾٢١ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﱠﺎس ا ْﻋﺒُ ُﺪواْ َرﺑﱠ ُﻜ ُﻢ‬
O mankind! Worship your Lord (Allah). (Surat al-Baqarah: 21)
He said mankind meaning Muslims and non Muslims, which include U’budoo (ْ‫ﺪوا‬
ُ ُ‫ )ا ْﻋﺒ‬which
is Tawheed and it includes other aspect of worship. So he is tell everybody, Muslims and
non-Muslims embrace Tawheed, which is the main Ibaadah and then included in that is
other types of worships. So he was directing his speech to everybody.

‫ﻴﻦ‬ ِِ

Means falsehood – everything that Allah disliked and prohibited and included in that is vain
talk as well.
﴾٤٦:‫ب ﺑِﻴَـ ْﻮِم اﻟ ﱢﺪﻳ ِﻦ ﴿اﻟﻤﺪﺛﺮ‬

ُ ‫َوُﻛﻨﱠﺎ ﻧُ َﻜ ﱢﺬ‬
“And we used to belie the Day of Recompense.” (Surat al-Muddathir: 46)
The reasons they’re saying that they’re in Jahannam is leaving Salah, talking falsehood and
not giving charity. The main reasons that they’re in Jahannam is due to their Kufr. That’s
why they’re really in Jahannam. But the torment is worsened on top of the punishment of
Kufr, why? For leaving the details of Islam out as well. They clearly stated four reasons from
the details of Islam. They didn’t make their Salah, they didn’t give the poor their rights, their
charity, they spoke evil and falsehood and that which Allah dislikes and they disbelieved in
the Day of Judgment.
So in addition they’re saying; in addition to their Kufr they’re being punished for these
matters which are matters that are not Tawheed and Shirk. If they were not being punished
for these details then it would be feral to mention them. They mentioned those details
Page | 72
because those are details of Islam that they are being punished for. Therefore they are
being punished for details of Islam that they didn’t do and the principle of Islam which is
Tawheed. Because the Tawheed in the details of Islam are both commanded upon them.
The original and main reason for their punishment is due to their Shirk, no doubt. But it gets
multiplied on top of that for the details of Islam that they did not do.
These are among the proofs that ‘Ulamaa used that the non-Muslims are commanded by
the details of Islam.

So the torment over the torment they get punished for is torment for the Kufr, refusing the
principle and then on top of that torment they’re going to be tormented for the secondary
matters of Islam, which is in this verse hindering people from the right path.

says; they get tormented for three sins, for their shirk which is the principle, and then he
mentioned killing, unjustly killing someone. Another one they’ll be tormented for is illegal
sexual relationship, and the second two are secondary matters of Islam. The first one of
course is the principle, so that means they’ll be punished for matters are secondary matters
of Islam, just like they’ll be will be punished for the original Kufr.

The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in

His sin is multiplied over on top of the shirk. Why? For secondary matters that he was
commanded with; Zina and killing.
Even more clear than that:
‫ﻳﻦ َﻻ ﻳُـ ْﺆﺗُﻮ َن اﻟ ﱠﺰَﻛﺎ َة َو ُﻫﻢ ﺑِ ْﺎﻵ ِﺧ َﺮِة ُﻫ ْﻢ َﻛﺎﻓِ ُﺮو َن‬

And woe to Al-Mushrikoon (the disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, polytheists, idolaters,
etc). Those who give not the Zakah and they are disbelievers in the Hereafter. (Surat al-
Fussilat: 6-7)
Had the speech of the details of Islam not been directed to non-Muslims it would be, the
verse would go like; woe to the Mushrikeen - period, or woe to the Mushrikeen for their
shirk, but here it says;
“Woe to the Mushrikeen” for their shirk?
‫ﻳﻦ َﻻ ﻳُـ ْﺆﺗُﻮ َن اﻟ ﱠﺰَﻛﺎ َة‬ ِ‫ﱠ‬

َ ‫اﻟﺬ‬
Those who do not give the Zakah and they are disbelievers in the hereafter. Who are they?
The one who don’t give the Zakah and they’re disbelievers in the hereafter. He said, woe to
their Mushrikeen for their shirk? No that’s obvious, that’s the first part, that’s definite. But
in this verse he said for not paying Zakah and not believing in the judgment day. They’re
going to be held accountable for the details of Islam and for the principle foundation of
Tawheed. That’s a matter like I said many ‘Ulamaa said there was a Ijmaa’ early on and
there shouldn’t never been a dispute after, even though there is. You will see a dispute on
this issue.
How does this tie to our study? Did we get off track? No we didn’t. It’s important and it’s
important to know in Fiqh books because the author said:
‫ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ُﻣ ْﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ‬

The fasting is obligatory on every Muslim. He said Ramadhaan is Waajib on a Muslim. You
don’t want to get the wrong impression. The statement seems to imply that a Kaafir is
exempted from fasting Ramadhaan or the obligation upon him of that or that he will not be
Page | 74
punished for that. A Kaafir is included in the order of fasting like the other orders of Islam,
but the statement of the author and the Fuqahaa’ when they use it in such context, it does
not mean to exclude a Kaafir. It means he is exempted.
When they say Ramadhaan is Waajib, or the Salah is Waajib on a Muslim or Hajj is Waajib on
a Muslim. That’s the first condition that you are going to find in those matters. When they
say that it doesn’t mean a non-Muslim is exempted from those obligations or that those
orders do not encompass him. The Fuqahaa’ in such a statements mean; fulfill your
condition of Islam so that the order that you were commanded with will be accepted, the
order of Siyaam.
CLASS NINE
MUKALLAF
The first condition we took yesterday was Muslim, today the second condition is Mukallaf.
ٍ ‫ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ﻣﺴﻠِ ٍﻢ ﻣ َﻜﻠﱠ‬

‫ﻒ‬ ُ ُْ
Meaning someone accountable. Mukallaf or accountability in Fiqh means as we went over
already is contains two aspects; Number one; is that the person is sane, ’Aaqil or ’Aql.
Number two; Is that is over the age of puberty Buloogh or Baaligh.
This exempts one, who is insane and children who are under the age of puberty from the
obligation of fasting. A minor under the age of puberty is fully exempted by the
overwhelming majority of Ulamaa. In fact it’s near Ijmaa’(consensus) that he is exempted
until he reaches the age of puberty.
‫رﻓﻊ اﻟﻘﻠﻢ ﻋﻦ ﺛﻼﺛﺔ وذﻛﺮ ﻣﻨﻬﻢ ﻋﻦ اﻟﺼﺒﻲ ﺣﺘﻰ ﻳﺤﺘﻠﻢ وﻓﻲ رﻳﻮاي ﺣﺘﻲ‬
‫ﻳﻘﺒﺮ وﻓﻲ روى ﺣﺘﻲ ﻳﺘﻠﻖ‬
The pen has been lifted from three, one of them is insane until he becomes back to senses
and a sleeper until he wakes up and a minor until he reaches the age of puberty.
That Hadith in Sunan Abu Dawud is in authority on this matter. The signs of puberty are
three, three for a male and four for a female. One is they both share is reaching the age of
fifteen or number two; the growing of pubic hair. Number three; a wet dream. And a female
has an addition sign which is the start of her menstrual cycle.
Page | 75
Now keep in mind, the rule that a minor is not accountable for fasting does not mean is not
accepted or rewarded if he does it. It’s not Waajib on him, he is not held accountable for it.
But he may get reward just as a parent may get reward if they teach him and if he doesn’t.
there is a difference between today’s condition on fasting and the one we took yesterday.
We took Islam which the opposite is Kufr. One who is a Kaafir is different in that fasting is
not accepted from him. Here is not Waajib on him, he is not held accountable for fasting.
But if he does it he may get reward, while as a Kaafir does not get reward.
CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF PUBERTY
Another important point to know about minors is that children under the age of puberty are
considered two categories; one of two categories is matters of Usool; Minors who are able
to distinguish and minors who not able to distinguish. What’s the age or the line where
minors are referred to or classified as those who are able to distinguish and those who not
able to distinguish. In Arabic is called; Mumayyiz Wa Ghayra Mumayyiz. It is disputed among
the ‘Ulamaa.
Some ‘Ulamaa says, the first two opinions is that they should be quizzed and tested. That’s
how we know if they are Mumayizeen or not, because children mature at different ages,
and is better to quiz them and ask the then to go by age. Some said if you ask them the
difference between a donkey and a mule. If they know the difference and they specify that
particular question, they are considered Mumayizeen, if they don’t know the difference
they are not considered Mumayizeen. A third opinion said that we go by the age of seven
for Tameez because is in the Hadith where the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
ordered the parents to order the children to perform Salah at the age of seven. That’s
probably strong because is taken from a Hadith.
DO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF PUBERTY GET REWARD FOR FASTING?
Now having said that, what’s based on that matter? Whether a child or minor is Mumayyiz
he can distinguish or he can’t distinguish, what’s based on that for our purpose here today?
If a child is under the age of seven under what constitute Tameez meaning he is under the
age where he distinguishes, then his Salah is classified from a Fiqh prospective as vain, there
is not a reward in it. Don’t get me wrong, you encourage your children to make Salah, but
we’re talking from Fiqh prospective, do they get reward and ajar?
My father tells me when I was crawling I used to drag up prayer carpet next to him, pile it up
next to him and join him in his Salah, may Allah grant him a long life full of deeds and then
Firdaws. My father took us to Madinah when we were at the age of seven when he went to
study, we were around the age of seven. And I remember for a fact that we fasted at least
two years prior to that, full Ramadhaan. So it’s encouraged for a parent to teach their kids
but there is no reward for children under the age of Tameez as the Fuqahaa’ said.
Page | 76
Now over the age of Tameez, the Salah and fasting he gets rewards for it. Why? Because for
an Ibaadah to be an Ibaadah you must have knowledge of that Ibaadah, and knowledge
follows intentions. So you have to have knowledge and intention. You need knowledge and
intention. Does one who crawls have the intention and knowledge so that it may constitute
an Ibaadah? Someone under the age of Tameez he can’t comprehend that. While someone
over the age of Tameez, although he may not a full comprehensive knowledge of the Salah
like an adult, he will have the general understanding of the basic and essentials of Salah and
he will definitely know the intention. That’s the difference.
ARE THEY HELD ACCOUNTABLE?
Another issue, whether one is under the age of Tameez or over they’re not held, as long as
they’re minor, they’re no held accountable until they reach the age of puberty. That’s by the
overwhelming majority of the ‘Ulamaa, including a large group of the Hanabilah. There is
another opinion by the Hanabilah that he’s held accountable. They said if a person a minor
reaches the age of Tameez even though he’s under the age of puberty. Meaning to them is
age seven, he is able to fast then he must fast. That’s a weak opinion. Their proof on that,
his comparing fasting at the age of seven to Salah at the age of seven, they did Qiyaas. And
the responds to that is; first of all look into the Hadith of the order of the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is for the parent, ordering the parents to order the kids. It was
for parent to order the kids at the age of seven.
ONE SHOULD BE FLEXIBLE WITH CHILDREN
The second issue is; the Messenger said orders them to do Salah at the age of seven and hit
them at the age of ten. Doing analogy of Siyaam and Salah is disputed because fasting is
much more difficult than Salah. In order to do Qiyaas it has to be very similar. So fasting is
much more difficult than Salah so he Qiyaas on it and also is different in that Salah, when
one leaves Salah he is a Kaafir. While leaving Siyaam, as long as one not deny he is not a
Kaafir. And the clearest most direct proof on this matter is the Hadith; The pen has been
lifted from three; and one of them is a minor until he reaches the age of puberty. that
Hadith doesn’t leave for that Hanbali opinion that a minor over the age of Tameez which is
seven is obligated to fast. he has his preferable to teach them, to raise them from as early as
you can on Salah and Siyaam, as young as possible.
The Sahaabah used to raise their children on that, and used to when their children would
get hungry to get them to forget that they would either take them to the Masjid and buy
them toys to get their minds of food. As my father tells me, he said; teaching the children at
that young age is like tying a knot that will never get loose. The point is one should be
flexible with them, especially in fasting because is more difficult than Salah. One fact is that
is not Waajib on them and that is the incorrect opinion in the Hanbali Madhab.
Page | 77
ONE MUST BE SANE
Now, moving on to the next condition of fasting which is; being sane. That’s the next
condition. Is that in your book? Is not in your book, you won’t see that in your book. Where
did we get that from? We said that Mukallaf means that one is over the age puberty and we
just finished that. And number two is that he’s sane. So a Majnoon, someone who’s insane,
mentally ill is like a child and that they’re both not held accountable. One who’s insane,
regardless of whether that is temporarily insanity or permanent one, he is exempted from
the accountability of fasting. For one temporarily insane is only during the time that he is
insane in them.
There are many forms of insanity, the exemption is for those who are insane and it includes
a variety of types of insanity. For example; Alzheimer's is one, those in a coma are
considered like those insane, those who lost their mind within their life, those who were
born like that, and those are variety of insanity that they exempted. One insane is like a
minor, is that they are not obligated to fast.
Now there is an issue, in one of two opinions by Imam Ahmad that’s unusual he state that;
an insane person makes up his fast. When we say one of two opinions means that he has
two opinions on this matter. The followers of his Madhab try to explain this, in responds or
explain this issue. And try to do in two ways, some of them said this is a weak opinion that
could not and should not be attributed to Imam Ahmad. Why did they say that? They said
it’s clearly goes against the Hadith:
‫ُرﻓِ َﻊ اﻟْ َﻘﻠَ ُﻢ َﻋ ْﻦ ﺛﻼث‬

The pen has been lifted of three; and one of them is:
َ ‫ﻮن َﺣﺘﱠﻰ ﻳُِﻔ‬

‫ﻴﻖ‬ ِ ُ‫َﻋ ِﻦ اﻟْﻤ ْﺠﻨ‬
َ
One who’s insane until he returns to his sanity. Just like we don’t tell a child to make up
your fast for the fifteen years or thirteen years or fourteen years while you were under the
age of puberty, we don’t tell someone who’s insane; make up your fast while you were
insane. That’s why it’s a weak opinion and it conflicts with the direct wording of the Hadith.
The one in Sunan Abu Dawud that is in authority of this matter.
Other followers, another one, other followers of the Hanbali Madhab said, no. making up
the fast for the insane according to Imam Ahmad was meant for those who are in a
temporarily insanity. There’s permanent insanity and then there is temporary insanity,
comes and goes, sometimes for a few weeks or months, for years, sometimes within the
day. They’d be insane part of the day and sane at part of the day. They said what Imam
Page | 78
Ahmad meant is that; if a person goes for an hour of the day and he’s cured within that day,
that’s what Imam Ahmad Rahimahullah meant. They tried justifying the opinion of Imam
Ahmad Rahimahullah by saying; he means temporarily insanity, meaning if he’s cured within
that particular day.
This issue is actually very similar to one who is in a coma, one who is in a coma and he
wakes up in between two Salah. If someone insane returns to his normal statues or one
who’s in coma wakes up between two Salah, during the coma or insanity they’re not held
accountable. Now if he wakes up after Dhuhr, does he have to have to make that Dhuhr? Is
he held accountable for that Dhuhr? Or he says; ok next Salah I’ll start, I’ll start on that next
Salah. If he wakes up or his mind returned to him between the Salah before the ending of
the timing for the Salah which an average person can make Wudhu and Salah, that’s when
he must start and that’s when his first Salah begins and he’s held accountable to it.
Let me give you an example to clear that up; if he wakes up one minute before Dhuhr is over
or three minute before Dhuhr is over meaning he wakes up three minute for Asr because
that’s when is over. He’s not required to make Dhuhr, he’s not held accountable for that,
because one to three minute is not enough for an average person to make Wudhu and
Salah. If he wakes up or his mind returns to him ten to fifteen minute before Asr, then he
has to make Dhuhr, because an average person is able to make Wudhu and Salah within ten
to fifteen minutes.
So far we took, the condition of Islam which was yesterday, today we took Mukallaf which
means over the age of puberty and it means sane.
YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FAST

The next one that the author mentions is:
‫ﻗَ ِﺎد ٍر‬

This is something nearly all the ‘Ulamaa agree on, the ability to fast, you have to be able to
fast. Islam orders those who are able to do that which that they are able. Islam does not
have any orders that are impossible, or one can’t endure. That’s why one cannot endure
fasting, for example, for an illness he doesn’t have to fast. Islam does not order something
that’s impossible;

‫اﺳﺘَﻄَ ْﻌﺘُ ْﻢ‬
When I command you do the best of your ability and capacity. if one is not able to fast we
say is not Waajib on him. He’s not able to fast, is not Waajib on him. What falls under this is;
one who’s traveling, some who you know are travelling, some who are ill, and some who are
old or some who have incurable disease. There’s a difference between one who’s ill, if he
has for example; a cold or a flu or his leg is broken and he need pain medication, that falls
under;
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻀﺎ أ َْو َﻋﻠَﻰ َﺳ َﻔ ٍﺮ ﻓَ ِﻌ ﱠﺪةٌ ﱢﻣ ْﻦ أَﻳﱠ ٍﺎم أُ َﺧ َﺮ‬

ً ‫ َوَﻣﻦ َﻛﺎ َن َﻣ ِﺮﻳ‬...
And whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not observe
Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from other days. (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
Whoever ill or his on a journey the same number of days which he did not fast, he did not
observe his fast, he has to make them up. If he breaks his fast.
One who’s permanently unable to fast or he’s very old or with a permanent disease or
illness, he does Fidyah, expiation for every single day. We will talk about those issues in
much more detail that the author has statement pertaining to those matters that we’ll go
over. That’s why I’m going to discuss them now in detail.
We mentioned now so far yesterday; Muslim, today we said Mukallaf. A) Above the age of
puberty. B) sane, then the third one is; Qaadirin which is ability. There’s the fourth one,
which the author didn’t mention here, because he actually included it in his other
statements, which is being a residents not a traveller. One who’s travelling has the option
to break his fast by the Ijmaa’ of Ulamaa’, it is clear in the verse:
َ ‫ﻀﺎ أ َْو َﻋﻠَﻰ َﺳ َﻔ ٍﺮ ﻓَ ِﻌ ﱠﺪةٌ ﱢﻣ ْﻦ أَﻳﱠ ٍﺎم أ‬

﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ُﺧ َﺮ‬ ً ‫ َوَﻣﻦ َﻛﺎ َن َﻣ ِﺮﻳ‬...
Page | 80
Whoever is ill or his on a journey the same number of days that he did not observe his
fasting, he has to make them up. Some ‘Ulamaa went to the extent, to the radical extend of
saying; one is not permitted to fast on a journey because that resembles fasting before the
proper timing. And fasting before the proper timing is not accepted. Like someone saying; I
want to do Ramadhaan two month ago, you can’t do that. They took the verse to mean fast
is delayed; the timing of his fast is delayed until he returns. That’s actually an extreme and
wrong weak opinion.
The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam fasted during his journeys and so did some of the
Sahaabah and those who fasted flaw those who didn’t. And those who did not fast, did not
flaw those who fasted.
In Sahih al-Bukhari: Amr-ul Asalami asked the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam; I’m
going to travel during Ramadhaan. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said; if you
wish to fast, fast. if you wish to break your fast then break it.
The point for now, we have a lot more details to discuss on that issue Inshaa Allah, but for
now for this to coincide with what we are covering now is; that one who’s travelling is not
obligated to fast, it’s his chose. However, he must make it up and just like an ill person has
to make it up unless is an incurable illness.
SHE MUST BE PURE

Fifth condition of fasting is special for a woman, and that is she’d be pure from her
menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding. And it’s by Ijmaa’ that fasting of a woman who’s on
her menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding is not accepted and that she needs to make it up.
Those are the five conditions that one must have to have an accepted fast.
Islam, Takleef which is sanity and over the age of puberty, ability, a residents he not be
travelling and a woman who’s not on her menstrual cycle or post needle bleeding. There are
details, again I’m going to repeat there are details on some of those issues that I didn’t
mention because the author has future statements on them. So it’s best to coincide with the
explanations, we’ll do it then.
CLASS TEN
Previously we took how Ramadhaan starts and ends. Then we took the condition of one
who fasts which is the matters we took like; Muslim, Mukallaf able, and a resident and a
woman who is on her menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding.

IF IT IS CONFIRMED THAT IT IS RAMADHAAN DURING THE DAY
Now the author comes with a new statement:
ِ ِ ِ ‫واِ َذا ﻗَﺎﻣ‬

‫ﻀﺎءُ َﻋﻠَﻰ ُﻛ ﱢﻞ َﻣ ْﻦ‬
َ ‫ﺎك َواﻟْ َﻘ‬
ُ ‫اﻻﻣ َﺴ‬
ْ ‫ﺐ‬ َ ‫ﱠﻬﺎ ِر َو َﺟ‬
َ ‫ﺖ اﻟْﺒَـﻴﱠـﻨَﺔُ ﻓﻲ اَﺛْـﻨَﺎء اﻟﻨـ‬ َ َ
‫ﺻ َﺎر ﻓِﻲ اَﺛْـﻨَ ِﺎء ِﻩ اَ ْﻫ َﻼ ﻟِ ُﻮ ُﺟﻮﺑِ ِﻪ‬
َ
If the start of Ramadhaan is proven to an individual, if it’s confirmed and witnessed to an
individual. That’s what means when we say:
ِ ‫واِ َذا ﻗَﺎﻣ‬

ُ‫ﺖ اﻟْﺒَـﻴﱠـﻨَﺔ‬ َ َ
If it’s established that it is Ramadhaan, and how do we know Ramadan starts or ends? One
of the two ways that we’ve already took; the moon was sighted or we complete the
previous month thirty days. That’s the only two ways that a month for Fiqh Islamic
prospective starts and ends. He said that if it is confirmed to someone that it is Ramadhaan
during the day, he must abstain from eating, drinking, sexual intercourse and all that which
voids the fast for the remainder of the day.
‫ﺻ َﺎر ِﻓﻲ اَﺛْـﻨَ ِﺎء ِﻩ اَ ْﻫ َﻼ ﻟِ ُﻮ ُﺟﻮﺑِ ِﻪ‬

َ ‫َﻋﻠَﻰ ُﻛ ﱢﻞ َﻣ ْﻦ‬
If he is among those who’s fasting is obligated upon. Who are those fasting who’s fasting is
obligated upon? Those who we studied the previous couple classes; sane, Muslim, over the
age of puberty, the matters that we discussed and studied in detail. You notice how this
sentence, this rule that we’re studying today is based on what we took in the previous
classes. It ties into each other and that’s why is very well organised. He said; if Ramadan is
confirmed to you, how is Ramadan confirmed? We already spent some classes on that; the
moon sighting or we complete thirty days. Then the next sentence he said;
If you’re among those who fasting is obligated upon. Who are those who’s fasting is
obligated upon? We took that in the previous two classes. Very well organised and
structured. Although it may not appear so, but in reality when you study the substances of
Fiqh its very well organised and structured. Our ‘Ulamaa took a lot of time to write this.
The statement saying over here we are trying to discuss is; if you sleep not knowing is
Ramadhaan. You went to sleep you don’t know if the next day is Ramadhaan. You forgot,
you didn’t know, you didn’t pray Ishaa at the Masjid. You go the Masjid the next day for
Dhuhr, Asr and one of your friends tells you is Ramadhaan today. From that point on the
Page | 82
author is saying; you must abstain from food, water, intercourse and everything that voids
your fast. It doesn’t matter what part of the day. I you went to the Masjid at Fajr and after
Fajr your friend told you; you know today is Ramadhaan? You abstain there. If it was after
Dhuhr, if it was after Asr you abstains for the remainder of the day from all that voids and
nullifies a fast. Here he says; if the proof is been established that Ramadhaan began, you do
Imsaak, which means you abstains from eating drinking and intercourse.
THE FIRST OPINION
The first opinion we have is; from the moment that it’s been confirmed to you that this day
is Ramadhaan, you abstain from eating, drinking, intercourse and that which voids a fast.
This is the opinion of the overwhelming majority of ‘Ulamaa, Ibn Taymiyyah strongly
advocated for this opinion. In fact some ‘Ulamaa consider this opinion an Ijmaa’. Ijmaa’ is
consensus means its agreed upon. Ibn Àbd al-Barr Rahimahullah said the only person I
know who disagreed with this opinion is ‘Adhaa Rahimahullah. So if it’s not an Ijmaa’, is so
close to an Ijmaa’. That’s the first opinion, and it is actually the correct opinion.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is what ‘Adhaa Rahimahullah said and it was one of two opinions by
Imam Ahmad. They said one is not obligated to abstain for the remainder of the day when
he finds out if it is Ramadhaan. I could not any Fiqh books that has this opinion of the
mother Fiqh books who stated this opinion by other than ‘Adhaa Rahimahullah and of
course one of two opinions by Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal. Knowing everything, nearly
everything is disputed in Fiqh and this is if not an Ijmaa like I said but very close to an Ijmaa’.
‫ اﻣﺮ اﻟﻨﺒﻲ ﺻﻠﻰ اﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ وﺻﻠﻢ‬: ‫ﻋﻦ ﺳﻠﻤﺔ ﺑﻦ اﻻﻛﻮع رﺿﻲ اﷲ ﻋﻨﻪ ﻗﺎل‬
‫رﺟﻞ ﻣﻦ اﺳﻠﻢ ان ازﻓﻦ اﻟﻨﺎس ان ﻣﻦ ﻛﺎن اﻛﻠﻪ ﻓﻠﻴﺼﻢ ﺑﻘﻴﺖ ﻳﻮﻣﻦ وﻣﻦ ﻟﻢ‬
‫ﻳﺎﻛﻦ اﻛﻞ ﻓﻠﻴﺼﻢ ﻓﻦ اﻟﻴﻮم ﻳﻮم ﻋﺎﺷﻮراء‬
Salamah Ibn al-Akwa' said; the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ordered a man from a
tribe from Bani Aslam; make an announcement. The announcement was what the
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam specifically told him to say;
‫ان ﻣﻦ ﻛﺎن اﻛﻠﻪ ﻓﻠﻴﺼﻢ ﺑﻘﻴﺖ ﻳﻮﻣﻦ‬
Page | 83
This is a message for those who did not know that day was 'Ashoora. He told his messenger
go announce that whoever has already eaten should fast from this day on, fast from this
point on.
‫وﻣﻦ ﻟﻢ ﻳﺎﻛﻦ اﻛﻞ ﻓﻠﻴﺼﻢ ﻓﻦ اﻟﻴﻮم ﻳﻮم ﻋﺎﺷﻮراء‬

Whoever has not eaten should continue his fast. Today is the day of 'Ashoora. Everyone was
ordered to abstain from eating, drinking meaning fast for the rest of the day. If you ate, fast
from now on. If you didn’t eat fast from now on.
Why are we comparing 'Ashoora to Ramadhaan in this Fiqh issue? Because if you remember
all this is tied to each other. If you remember in the start of the class maybe I think is the
second class, we said that ‘Ashoora was Waajib. ‘Ashoora was the replacement of
Ramadhaan, 'Ashoora was Fardh, Waajib back the like Ramadhaan is today. It was
abrogated by Ramadhaan. However the rule that those who didn’t know, it was ‘Ashoora
that day when the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made the announcement, told his
messenger to make the announcement. Applies to those who didn’t know? Is a Ramadhaan
day by analogy and Qiyaas. You are in the same statues as those who found out that
‘Ashoora, back in the days when it was Waajib. You don’t say; you know what I have to
make this day up, so I’m just going to continue eating and drinking for the rest of the day.
You do what the messenger of the Messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said;
you abstain, you fast from eating and drink and all that which void fast. You fast for the
remainder of the day when you found out that today is the day of Ramadhaan. That’s pretty
much a very clear issue.
DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE THAT DAY UP?

The next issue is slightly more disputed. You found out during the day, you went to the
Masjid your friend told you; you know today is Ramadhaan? You didn’t know. You abstain,
you fast from that point on. The next issue do you have to make that day up? The author
here says:
ُ‫ﻀﺎء‬
َ ‫َواﻟْ َﻘ‬
You abstain and you make it up.
THE FIRST OPINION
Now the first opinion and that’s the opinion of the Hanabilah, Shafi’yyah and it is what the
author of this book choose when he said:
Page | 84
ُ‫ﻀﺎء‬
َ ‫َواﻟْ َﻘ‬
And it is the opinion of the vast majority of the ‘Ulamaa. They say that one must make that
day up after Ramadhaan. He abstains and he makes that day up. Why? Simply put, it’s a day
of Ramadhaan that person in reality didn’t fast. As a rule you must have intention before
Fajr, we spoke on that. You must have intention before Fajr. This person didn’t have that
intention. The fact that he abstain and fasted the rest of the day does not mean he does not
make up that day after Ramadhaan.
They went on to say that; fasting has a physical aspect to it or characteristic, which means to
abstain from that which voids the fast. It has a second characteristic which is; to have the
intention before Fajr. That makes a lot of sense it seems like its strong, but look at the
second opinion.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is they said is Waajib to make it up. The second opinion is by Ibn
Taymiyyah, Maalikiyyah and small group of ‘Ulamaa is a minority opinion. That whoever
abstains from the remainder of the day and he didn’t know it was Ramadhaan, he doesn’t
have to make up that day.
What’s their proof? Their proof is in the Hadith of ‘Ashoora that I mention earlier. When the
Messenger ordered sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his messenger to make an announcement
to abstain from eating, drinking and that which voids the fast for the remainder of the day.
He didn’t tell his messenger and also tell them make up that day.
The second proof; those who didn’t know they ate for a portion of the day not knowing it
was Ramadhaan, it was by error and mistake. They ate, they possibly had intercourse with
their spouses, this was before it was confirmed to them that it was the day of Ramadhaan,
they didn’t violate the month. They were merely ignorant that Ramadhaan has started, so
they fall under what is exempted of forgetfulness and error.
ِ ‫رﺑﱠـﻨﺎ َﻻ ﺗُـ َﺆ‬...

﴾٢٨٦: ‫ ﴿ اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫اﺧ ْﺬﻧَﺎ إِن ﻧﱠ ِﺴﻴﻨَﺎ أ َْو أَ ْﺧﻄَﺄْﻧَﺎ‬ ََ
“Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error.” (Surat al-Baqarah: 286)
So they said this falls under what’s exempted of error and forgetfulness.
A third proof that he used is Qiyaas (analogy). They compared this scenario to someone who
mistakenly thought it was sun down at Maghrib but it wasn’t. He broke his fast and thought
it was sun down but it wasn’t. we’ve mentioned a Hadith on this before and was the Hadith
in Bukhari where they said; we broke our fast during the lifetime of the Messenger sallallahu
Page | 85
alayhi wa sallam on a cloudy day and then the sun appeared. They broke their fast because
it was very cloudy. It got dark they thought it was Maghrib, they thought it was sun down.
Its turns out it was a cloud passing by. The sun resurface after the cloud went away. They
broke their fast think it was sundown during the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam life.
Then they found out it was still not Maghrib. They were not ordered by the messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to make up that day. They said someone who after the day of
Ramadhaan starts, he does not know is Ramadhaan, then he finds he abstain when he finds
out for the rest of the day. He fast for the rest of the day, is just like that scenario, he
doesn’t have to make it up.
A fourth proof is they say, which is really in response, they say; this person didn’t have the
Niyyah the night before. That’s true, because he didn’t know it was Ramadan. Ibn
Taymiyyah responded to this, he said; this person did not have the Niyyah (the intention)
because he didn’t know it was Ramadhaan. What that person is ignorant of is not under his
control, therefore they’re exempted. Ibn Taymiyyah said; if someone knows the next day is
Ramadhaan and he delayed his Niyyah until after Fajr knowing that the next day is
Ramadhaan, is not going to be accepted. But these people they didn’t know the next day is
Ramadhaan. You can see even though this second opinion is a minority opinion, they’re
really is very strong in there proves.
THE THIRD OPINION
A third opinion by Imam Ahmad and notice the Hanbali Madhab has three opinions on the
situation, three conflicting opinions on this situation. Third opinion is that; they don’t have
to abstain nor make it up. The correct opinion in between the first and the second opinion,
the correct opinion is something one of my Shuyookh Rahmatullah 'Alayh taught me, when
he said that opinion, those opinions, he said; my heart leans to the second opinion.
However is safer to make that day up. His heart leans to the second opinion that you really
don’t have to make it up, he said; but it’s safer to make it up. He said I would go as far as
saying is Waajib to make it up like the first opinion. So it’s really somewhere between the
first and second opinion. I actually believe that and I encourage and if someone were to ask
me, I would say; make up that day.
A WOMAN WHO BECOMES PURE OR A TRAVELLER WHO

RETURNS HOME
The author goes on to say:
ِ
ٌ ‫ َوَﻛ َﺬا َﺣﺎء‬، ‫َوُﻣ َﺴﺎﻓِ ٌﺮ ﻗَ ِﺪ َم ُﻣ ْﻔ ِﻄ ًﺮا‬
‫ض َوﻧُـ َﻔ َﺴﺎءُ ﻃَ ُﻬﺮﺗَﺎ‬
Page | 86
The author goes on to say; and likewise a woman on her menstrual cycle or a woman in her
post-natal bleeding and a traveller who returned home while he has broken his fast. What’s
all this mean? He said; and likewise. If a person found out that it was Ramadhaan during the
day, we already said; he abstains for the rest of the day, he fast for the rest of the day. We
said it’s a near Ijmaa’ on that. He is saying now; and likewise if a woman is on her menstrual
cycle becomes pure during the day, she must abstain for the rest of the day, she must fast
for the rest of the day. If a woman on her post-natal bleeding becomes pure during that day,
she has to abstain for the rest of the day, of that Ramadhaan day. If a traveller, he travelled
he went out he decided to break his fast because he was exempted he was on his journey,
he returned home before the sunset, the fasting hours of the day, he has to abstain for the
rest of the day when he returns home.
WHY DID THE AUTHOR SAY ‘AND LIKEWISE’?
First of all the author didn’t include these three categories; woman on her menstrual cycle,
woman on her post-natal bleeding, and a traveller, he didn’t include these in the first
sentence. He separated them from the previous sentence from those who found out during
the day of Ramadhaan that today is the day of Ramadhaan, he separated those two
sentences likewise:
ِ
ُ‫ض َوﻧُـ َﻔ َﺴﺎء‬
ٌ ‫َوَﻛ َﺬا َﺣﺎء‬
Why didn’t he include them altogether in one sentence? He could have, it could have been
more eloquent to do so. He separated them with the word Wakadhaa (‫ﺬا‬
َ ‫)وَﻛ‬. The answer to
َ
that is these matters are greatly disputed. There is a trend and many of the Fiqh books
where they usually mention issues where they have Ijmaa’ (consensus) on them first or
close to an Ijmaa’. Like an overwhelming majority of Ulamaa’ supporting that opinion or a
near Ijmaa’. Then they follow that with issues that may be widely disputed by saying;
likewise Wakadhaa, the tag them on with Wakadhaa.
The man or woman who found out during the day that its Ramadhaan must abstain, fast for
the rest of the day, that’s near Ijmaa’. We stated Ibn Abdil Barr the only one I know of who
disagreed with this was ‘Aadhah. That’s as close to an Ijmaa’ as you can get. But then a
woman on her menstrual cycle who becomes pure and clean that day or a traveller or a
woman on her post-natal bleeding date, these three issues that the author mentions here
after he mentions Wakadhaa - and likewise, they’re widely disputed unlike the first matter.
So the author separated them from the first matter by the sentence Wakadhaa – and
likewise. He separated those three conditions from one who finds out during the day that
it’s Ramadhaan by saying Wakadhaa because these three issues are widely disputed.
Page | 87
Now let’s talk about these three categories issues; a woman on her menstrual cycle, a
woman after her post-natal bleeding and a traveller who returns home. A woman on her
menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding becomes pure at Dhuhr. Dhuhr she’s finished, the
bleeding is done and she takes a shower and she is clean. She has to make up that day and
all the days that she missed while she was on her days on her menstrual cycle or post-natal
bleeding. There is no questions that they have to make up the missed days.

Whoever is ill and on a journey they same number of days which they didn’t observe in
Siyaam, he must make up. That’s for a traveller.
And as for a woman who’s Haaidh or Nufasa’a, by Ijmaa’ in the Hadith in Sahih Muslim:
‫ﻀ ِﺎء اﻟ ﱠ‬
‫ﺼﻼَ ِة‬ ِ ‫ُﻛ ﱠﻦ ﻧـﺆﻣﺮ ﺑَِﻘﻀ ِﺎء اﻟ ﱠ‬
َ ‫ﺼ ْﻮم َوﻻَ ﻧُـ ْﺆَﻣ ُﺮ ﺑَِﻘ‬ َ َُ ُْ
‘Aishah said; we were commanded to not make up the prayer but we were commanded to
make up the fasting.
DO THEY HAVE TO ABSTAIN FOR THE REST OF THE DAY?

The question is do these categories, we know we have to make it up, do these categories
that I mentioned have to abstain the day that they became clean and pure or the day the
traveller returned home? That’s the issue at hand, the issue of making that day up that’s an
ijmaa’. The traveller or a woman her menstrual cycle or post-natal they have to make up
those days.
THE FIRST OPINION
Now the first opinion according to Abu Haneefah and one of two opinions by Imam Ahmad
chosen by the author of this book and the Madhab of the Maalikiyyah, is a woman on her
menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding day when she becomes pure of that. She has to fast
for the remainder of that day and on of that day, since she could not do an entire Waajib
which is fast the entire day. She can do a partial Waajib by fasting the remainder of the day
when she is pure. They also said; the woman or a traveller who’s exempted from fasting
that day for an excuse, the excuses is no longer there, so they must abstain. That’s their
rational behind it.
Page | 88
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion is one of two opinions by Imam Maalik and one of two opinions by
Imam Ahmad. And it’s the opinion of Imam Ash-Shafi’ee; that a woman does not need to
fast or abstain for the remainder of that day when she becomes pure. As longs as of course
what we mentioned before she doesn’t do it publicly. This opinion said first of all; they were
permitted to eat in the start of the day so they can eat and continue eating for the rest of
the day. Also they said there is no benefit in them abstaining for the rest of the day, fast rest
of the day.
Someone who didn’t know who didn’t know it was Ramadan and they found out and he
fasted some ‘Ulamaa say when he fast the rest of the day he doesn’t need to make it up, we
said its safer to make it up. Here a woman on her menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding or a
traveller who returned home, there’s no dispute that says; they don’t make it up. It’s by
Ijmaa’ that they must make it up. So they ‘Ulamaa here are saying; there’s no benefit in
them fasting the rest of the day. The fact that she needs to make up that day regardless and
the fact that the traveller who returned home needs to make up that day regardless, makes
fasting for the remainder of the day feral and useless.
A third, a strong proof is what is narrated in Abi Shaybah that Ibn Mas’ood radhiallahu 'anhu
said:
‫ﻣﻦ أﻛﻞ أول اﻟﻨﻬﺎر ﻓﻠﻴﺄﻛﻞ آﺧﺮﻩ‬

Ibn Mas’ood said; whoever eats in the start of the day like these scenarios that we
mentioned, then he can throughout the day or to the end of the day.
This is the correct opinion, a woman who’s on her menstrual cycle or post-natal bleeding
becomes pure during that day at Dhuhr, Asr or right before Maghrib, she does not have to
abstain or fast for the rest of the day. A traveller who returns during the fasting hours to his
home and family, he decided on his journey to break his fast. Now that his home he doesn’t
have to abstain for the rest of the day. Of course we stated before that this should be done
in secrecy and in respect to Ramadhaan and to Muslims and also to avoid of being accused.
So for example a scenario that I can give you; if a husband returns from a journey, a journey
he broke is fast on. He decided to break his fast because he is excused. A wife at home that
day became Taahirah (pure) from her menstrual cycle, they can have sexual intercourse that
day of Ramadhaan. It Halaal there is no Kaffaarah. I read a rule some Fuqahaa’ stated which
I very much like on this matter and they said; whoever breaks their fast for any legitimate
reason, then that reason has happens to go away during the hours of fasting, they don’t
have to abstain for the remainder of that day after the reason that they were allowed to
break their fast for goes away. Whoever breaks his fast for any legitimate Islamic, Fiqh
Page | 89
reason, then that reason happens to go away during the day then they don’t have to abstain
the rest of day, they don’t have to fast for the rest of the day.
WHOEVER BREAKS HIS FAST FOR A LEGITIMATE REASON

A last point, in additional to a woman on her menstrual cycle and a woman on her post-
natal bleeding and a traveller that the author gave, there’s other similar reasons that the
author did not mention. For example; a nursing mother breaks her fast so she can nurse her
infant and care of her infant, she’s excused. Her infant happens to be die that day, she broke
her fast to nurse him. Her infant, her son happens to die that day, she doesn’t have to
abstain for the rest of that day.
Another scenario, the reason is whoever breaks his fast for legitimate reason then that
reason goes away during that day, they don’t have to abstain for the rest of the day, the rule
that I gave you.
Another scenario more practical and that the author I’m not sure why he didn’t mention it,
a person who’s ill he broke his fast because he’s ill, he is exempted. After Asr he is as healthy
as can be, the fever or whatever he had went away. He doesn’t have to abstain for the rest
of the day. Why? We told; whoever break his fast for a legitimate reason then that reason
goes away during the day. Now he’s cured he doesn’t have to abstain. And we mentioned to
you the statement that Ibn Mas’ood radhiallahu 'anhu stated in Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah.
So that the on this matter.
CLASS ELEVEN
IF ONE BREAKS HIS FAST DUE TO OLD AGE OR AN INCURABLE

ILLNESS
We left off at the author’s statement:
‫ض ﻻَ ﻳُـ ْﺮ َﺟﻰ ﺑُـ ْﺮُؤﻩُ اَﻃ َْﻌ َﻢ ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ﻳَـ ْﻮٍم ِﻣ ْﺴ ِﻜﻴﻨًﺎ‬

ٍ ‫ﻄﺮ ﻟِ ِﻜﺒَ ٍﺮ اَ ْو َﻣ َﺮ‬
َ ْ‫َوَﻣ ْﻦ اَﻓ‬
It’s a very simple statement, whoever breaks his fast because he is unable to fast due to age,
weakness of the age, he is an old man or incurable illness. One who is too old, too weak to
fast; that is not reversible. People don’t go back to their youth. Or someone who has some
type of incurable disease, incurable illness where he can’t fast. Malignant tumor, cancer, a
bad case of diabetes or those who go under kidney dialysis and those who have polio or
Page | 90
Ebola or like that is aids, the last stages of aids for example. Those kind of diseases, the first
issue is the author is saying, it’s not disputed whatsoever that when they are not able to
fast, they don’t have to. Remember the conditions that we took, this all ties into each other
, we said Muslim, second one is Mukallaf - sane over the age of puberty, third one we said is
Qaadirin - ability. He can’t fast, he is not able to fast. He doesn’t expect to be cured, the old
man doesn’t expect to go back to his youth. So they don't have to fast, they are enable to
fast.
Allah said:
﴾٢٨٦ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻒ اﻟﻠّﻪُ ﻧَـ ْﻔ ًﺴﺎ إِﻻﱠ ُو ْﺳ َﻌ َﻬﺎ ﻟَ َﻬﺎ‬

ُ ‫ﻻَ ﻳُ َﻜﻠﱢ‬
Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. (Surat al-Baqarah: 286)
The same proof that we used that when we talked about Qaadirin - ability, is the same proof
we used today.
ْ ‫ﻓَﺎﺗﱠـ ُﻘﻮا اﻟﻠﱠ َﻪ َﻣﺎ‬

﴾١٦ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺘﻐﺎﺑﻦ‬...‫اﺳﺘَﻄَ ْﻌﺘُ ْﻢ‬
So keep your duty to Allah and fear Him as much as you can. (Surat at-Taghaabun: 16)
So the author goes on to say; let’s break it down a little bit more:
‫ﻄﺮ ﻟِ ِﻜﺒَ ٍﺮ‬

َ ْ‫َوَﻣ ْﻦ اَﻓ‬
If one breaks his fast due to old age in weakness, one breaks his fast due to old age in
weakness.
ٍ ‫اَ ْو َﻣ َﺮ‬
‫ض ﻻَ ﻳُـ ْﺮ َﺟﻰ ﺑُـ ْﺮُؤ ُﻩ‬
Or an incurable illness. Some type of incurable disease, whatever it maybe. The author
specified those two conditions here because they’re different than one who is ill with a
curable illness. That’s going to be our next topic after this Inshaa Allah. What’s the ruling on
those? The author said:
‫اَﻃ َْﻌ َﻢ ﻟِ ُﻜ ﱢﻞ ﻳَـ ْﻮٍم ِﻣ ْﺴ ِﻜﻴﻨًﺎ‬

He feeds a poor person for every single day that he missed. The ruling is they can break their
fast, but since they can’t make it up in the future, they have to feed a poor person for each
Page | 91
day. We said there is no dispute among the ‘Ulamaa that you can break your fast in such
conditions, that’s by Ijmaa’. The dispute is whether they must feed a poor person for each
day that they missed.
DO THEY HAVE TO FEED A POOR PERSON FOR EVERY SINGLE

DAY THEY MISSED?
THE FIRST OPINION
The first opinion is that of Imam Ahmad, Abu Haneefah, ash-Shaafi’ee in one of two
opinions Rahimahullah Jamee'an. They said the old or woman who are too weak to fast
because of their age or someone with an incurable illness they break their fast but they
must feed a poor person for every single day that they missed.
What’s your proof? They said it’s the statement by Ibn Abbaas that has a narration in Sahih
Bukhari and other narrations in Sunan al-Daraqutni and Abu Dawud and other of Sunan,
they worded it a little bit slightly different but they mean the same thing. Where ‘Aadha
said, that he heard Ibn Abbaas radhiallahu 'anhuma reciting the verse
﴾١٧٤ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﺎم ِﻣ ْﺴ ِﻜﻴ ٍﻦ‬ ِ ِ ‫و َﻋﻠَﻰ اﻟﱠ ِﺬ‬...

ُ ‫ﻳﻦ ﻳُﻄﻴ ُﻘﻮﻧَﻪُ ﻓ ْﺪﻳَﺔٌ ﻃَ َﻌ‬
َ َ
And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an old man, etc.), they have (a choice
either to fast or) to feed a Miskeen (poor person) (for every day). (Surat al-Baqarah: 184)
We took this before, so if you keep reviewing what you have, you will understand this very
clearly. Those who can fast they have a choice either fast or feed a poor person, in Surat al-
Baqarah. Ibn Abbaas said this verse is not abrogated but it is meant for an old man or old
woman who has no strength to fast, they should feed one poor person for each day instead
of fasting. Ibn Abbaas his point is very strong, not only because of the understanding he had
of it but also because he is a Sahaabi who specialises in Tafseer. A man who the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made Du’aa for him. He had a deep understanding of this verse.
The verse is the verse that we mentioned in the start of our classes. It’s the one that
pertains to the second level of fasting. We said the first level of fasting was 'Ashoora then it
was abrogated. It was abrogated by the second level of fasting which was Ramadhaan by
choice. You have the choice, you either fast or pay a poor person a meal per day that you
missed. Then the deep understanding from that of Ibn Abbaas was in the early days, people
has the right to choose between fasting and feeding a poor person. Now that ruling has
been abrogated by the fact that everyone must fast, that’s the final stage. However he is
saying that verse in that early stage considered feeding a poor person a replacement to
Page | 92
fasting. It was a replacement and it’s equal to fasting. He said now this person is too old
does not expect to be a youth again, so the replacement to fasting in his condition is feeding
a poor person, one per day that he missed.
There are many narrations to Ibn Abbaas' statement radhiallahu 'anhuma. One narration
was that when ‘Ikrimah asked Ibn Abbaas if an old man can’t fast, what should he do? Ibn
Abbaas said, he breaks his fast, he doesn’t have to fast and he feeds a poor person for every
single day. A Madd he feeds a poor person a Madd per day, and we will talk about what a
Madd is.
Another proof on that is in al-Daraqutni, where he narrated that Anas radhiallahu 'anhu
became weak toward the end of his life. He made a meal and invited thirty people to
compensate for the Ramadhaan that he missed.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion on this, Maalik, Ash-Shaafi’ee and his second opinion because
previously we said he had two opinions. Ash-Shaafi’ee in his second opinion said that an
older person or one with an incurable disease my break their fast, as we said that’s not
disputed, but they said they don’t even have to compensate by feeding a poor person for
every day that they missed. Why Maalik? Maalik Rahimahullah says, if a person get sick in
the middle of Ramadhaan, look at this scenario, if a person get sick in the middle of
Ramadan on the fifteenth, sixteenth day of Ramadhaan whatever, and his illness continues
for another fifteen day after Ramadhaan until he dies. He said we all agree in a scenario like
that, that one does not have to pay a poor person for a day nor does his family need to take
out his inheritance for that nor is he held accountable to that, we all agree on that he said.
We don’t request that he pays a poor person per day.
Those are the two opinions, you see the proofs and rationale for each. In this matter it’s
really the first opinion that would be much stronger because it’s the understanding of more
than one Sahaabi. The argument and the way Ibn Abbaas drew that rational was very strong
and very deep. The bottom line is they must feed a poor person each day that they break
their fast.
HOW MUCH DO WE FEED?

First of all, Hanabilah have an opinion that you must give a poor person the food, you have
to hand it to them. You have to gain ownership and position of it. Meaning you can’t invite
them to your house for dinner, they eat and you say that’s it, I fed a poor person. You have
to have ownership and position of that food. The argument is weak and it weak because we
have proof of what I stated earlier in al-Daraqutni that Anas radhiallahu ‘anhu became old
and fasting was too difficult for him, so he fed thirty people. He invited them all to his house
Page | 93
and he fed them. So understanding of the Sahaabah on a matter like that is given president
in such matters.
HOW MUCH DO WE GIVE?

The author didn’t say, possible because like we said this is a Matn, it is very summarised,
but other mentions.
‫ﻣﺪ ﻣﻨﺒﺮ وﻧﻔﺲ ﺻﺎع ﻣﻦ ﻏﻴﺮﻩ‬

Madd means one handful with your hands put together, this is what a Madd is. Madd is one
fourth of Saa’, that is nearly three fourths of a kilogram. What’s a Saa’? Saa’ is a
measurement commonly used by the people of Madinah during the Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam time. So if you were to go to the market back then, they didn’t have
printed banks telling the weight on them. Instead a comment method to measure they
would sale you rice or whatever it is by putting in a bucket like, you know something like a
bucket, It was called a Saa’ back then.
And it’s mentioned in a Hadith by the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam which is
authentic:
‫ اﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺑﺎرك ﻟﻨﺎ ﻓﻲ‬، ‫ اﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺑﺎرك ﻟﻨﺎ ﻓﻲ ﻣﺪﻳﻨﺘﻨﺎ‬، ‫اﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺑﺎرك ﻟﻨﺎ ﻓﻲ ﻣﻜﺘﻨﺎ‬
‫ و ﺑﺎرك ﻟﻨﺎ ﻓﻲ ﻣﺪﻧﺎ‬، ‫ و ﺑﺎرك ﻟﻨﺎ ﻓﻲ ﺻﺎﻋﻨﺎ‬، ‫ﺷﺎﻣﻨﺎ‬
As-Saa’ is four Madd. A Madd is a handful like that, and that’s equal to two point four or
two point five kilograms. By the way a Saa’ of rice is a measurement you are obligated to
give at the end of Ramadhaan for Zakat al-Fitr. So you know a Saa’ is four of this (both hands
together). It is 2.4 kilograms or five point two nine or so pounds. A Madd is one fourth of
that, this is a Madd (both hands together), a Saa’ is four of this.
How much does a person who terminally ill or permanently ill to fast give?
‫ﻣﺪ ﻣﻨﺒﺮ وﻧﻔﺲ ﺻﺎع ﻣﻦ ﻏﻴﺮﻩ‬

If you are giving wheat you give a Madd which is one fourth of a Saa’. Or if you choose to
give other than wheat you give double that, you give two of these (both hand together).
Two of these (both hand together) is half a Saa’, which is like dates, raisin, rice. Half a Saa’ is
two Madds (both hands together), because we said a Saa’ is four Madds. A Saa’ is two point
Page | 94
four kilos that’s approximately one point two kilos that you give of dates or rice or raisins
something of that nature. How do we know these calculations, did we make them up?
THE FIRST OPINION
The first opinion on that is that it’s something that we know by ‘Urf (‫)ﻋﺮف‬. ‘Urf is
something that is common amongst people, what’s widespread amongst people. It what
people commonly know it’s sufficient for average person’s meal. This means when you go
by ‘Urf, it changes, it may change over time. Some people over time may it more or less, so
it changes. However it’s really a higher status than what is referred to as ‘Urf. Because Ibn
Abbaas radhiallahu 'anhuma specifically mentioned this measurement one of his narrations.
He said in the narrations in al-Daraqutni:
﴾١٧٤ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﺎم ِﻣ ْﺴ ِﻜﻴ ٍﻦ‬ ِ ِ ‫و َﻋﻠَﻰ اﻟﱠ ِﺬ‬...

ُ ‫ﻳﻦ ﻳُﻄﻴ ُﻘﻮﻧَﻪُ ﻓ ْﺪﻳَﺔٌ ﻃَ َﻌ‬
َ َ
And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an old man, etc.), they have (a choice
either to fast or) to feed a Miskeen (poor person) (for every day). (Surat al-Baqarah: 184)
It’s a Shaykh, it’s an older man or older woman who are unable to fast, they should feed for
every day a half a Saa’. Two of these (both hands together) - two Madds. There is another
narration also a Hadith pertaining to feeding a poor person, not about Ramadhaan but
about matters in Hajj but we use it.
Ka'b bin 'Ujra said, he was ill during Hajj, they carried him to the Messenger sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam because lice falling of head on his face. In Hajj you can’t shave, if you shave you
got to pay a person, you got to compensate. He said he was too ill with lice that the
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I have never thought that your ailment has
reached to this extent. He need to shave his hair for the problem he had with lice during
Hajj, it was a very bad one. Whoever does that has to paid Fidyah (compensate). The
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam asked him; can you afford a sheep? He said negative, I
can’t do that, I can’t afford a sheep. That’s what you got to do if you shave your hair in the
Ihraam, during your Hajj. He said then fast three day or feed six person each with a half of
Saa’ of food. Each with half a Saa’, that’s our point right there.
You see what he said? He said feed six people each with a half a Saa’ of food, so he
specified. The Hadith specified the quantity a person must feed when he must feed a poor
person for something that he did in Hajj. Whether it’s a Hajj illness or Ramadhaan illness
that’s not the issue here. The point that we have and we take from that Hadith is that the
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam specified an amount that is to be given to a poor
person when you are supposed to give them.
Page | 95
That’s the foundation of proof of a half of Saa’, two of these (both hand together) for the
poor. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said half a Saa’. But if someone wants to give
wheat, we said he gives one fourth of a Saa’. Where did that one fourth come from? They
said it’s because wheat is in high demand and it is much more expensive back then.
Therefore it should be a little bit, in order to be far, it got to be less than that. So regular
food like dates, rice is a half a Saa’, the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam stated that,
Ibn Abbaas and his narrations confirmed that. If it is wheat, due to its higher price and
demand, then they did the educated guess Ijtihaad that it’s one fourth of a Saa’. Keep in
mind that Kaffaarah and the details that we mentioned, because this comes up in many
other issues of Fiqh. If we continue to study Fiqh, it will come up many other issues in Fiqh.
Let’s move on.
CAN SOMEONE MAKE UP FASTS FOR SOMEONE WHO IS

ALIVE?
Someone is terminally ill or they are too old to fast. A son or a daughter goes to their mum
or dad or a student of that person or a Muslim volunteered and says, you know what? You
have fifteen days of missed Ramadhaan or you have a whole month Ramadhaan, I will fast
that for you. There is two opinions on that.
THE FIRST OPINION
The first one is the weaker of the two opinions which is Ibn Taymiyyah Rahimahullah said,
you can make up the fast of another person. You can fast, you can voluntary fast while they
are alive, it permissible because he compared it to paying another person’s debt. He
basically said the same way you can pay another person’s debt, you can also fast instead of
him. That’s not really that accurate.
THE SECOND OPINION
The second opinion which is the overwhelming majority of the ‘Ulamaa and it’s really the
correct opinion. They say that fasting is a physical worship where Islam did not allow
delegation like Salah, Islam did not delegate Salah, I can’t make Salah for another person.
An-Nawawi Zakariyya al-Ansari said, it’s by Ijmaa’ that one can’t make up the fast of
another person who is alive. You can’t delegate in ‘Ibaadah of fasting. You can’t delegate in
‘Ibaadah. The origin is that you can’t delegate, meaning a person can’t do on behalf of
another unless there is proof. You can’t do any ‘Ibaadah on behalf of another person unless
there is proof. Delegation in ‘Ibaadah is an exception that need a specific proof.
At-Tirmidhi Rahimahullah said, Charity, Hajj, ‘Umrah, Salah you can do it on behalf of
another person, you can delegate someone to do it on your behalf, with some restriction
Page | 96
and rules to it. That’s very accurate. Keep in mind if someone were to read this at-Tirmidhi’s
opinion you might go and say, look at-Tirmidhi said you can do Salah on behalf of another
person. He said Salah, but he didn’t mean independent Salah on behalf of another person.
He means Salah that is part of ‘Umrah and Hajj, other than that you can’t because when
you Tawaaf seven times you have go make Salah. If you are doing Hajj or ‘Umrah on behalf
of someone else then that Salah is on the behalf of someone else. But not an independent
Salah. So when one person is alive, you cannot fast on their behalf. Even if they’re
terminally ill or because of an old age and their weakness.
CLASS TWELVE
We left off yesterday talking about those who are weak and at an older age and they can’t
fast or those with an incurable terminal illness.
IF FASTING IS HARMFUL FOR ONE WHO IS ILL OR SICK

Today the author moves on to matters where one expects recovery and he expects to be
cured, a temporary illness. He said:
‫ﻀ ﱡﺮُﻩ‬ ٍ ‫َو َﺳ ﱡﻦ ﻟِ َﻤ ِﺮ‬

ُ َ‫ﻳﺾ ﻳ‬
Now he mentions those who have a hope of being cured.
‫َو َﺳ ﱡﻦ‬
Means it’s Sunnah, it’s Sunnah to break the fast of one who is ill or sick. Does that mean any
illness?
That’s when he adds the stipulation in the sentence:
‫ﻀ ﱡﺮُﻩ‬
ُ َ‫ﻳ‬
If fasting harms him. We will explain the levels of harm. If it harms him, the author said it is
not only permissible but it is actually Sunnah. He has the right to do it and on top of that the
author adopts the opinion that it is Sunnah. Sunnah here means that he gets reward for
breaking his fast if he is ill in that fasting may harm him. It’s by Ijmaa’, by consensus no
‘Ulamaa disagree overall, that when one is ill he has the right to break his fast.
Page | 97
...‫ﻀﺎ أ َْو َﻋﻠَﻰ َﺳ َﻔ ٍﺮ ﻓَ ِﻌ ﱠﺪةٌ ِﻣ ْﻦ أَﻳﱠ ٍﺎم أُ َﺧ َﺮ‬
ً ‫ﻓَ َﻤ ْﻦ َﻛﺎ َن ِﻣ ْﻨ ُﻜ ْﻢ َﻣ ِﺮﻳ‬...
﴾١٨٤ : ‫﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬
But if any of you is ill or on a journey, the same number (should be made up) from other
days. (Surat al-Baqarah: 184)
If any of you are ill or on a journey then they should make up the number of days that they
missed after Ramadhaan.
‫ﻀ ﱡﺮُﻩ‬ ٍ ‫َو َﺳ ﱡﻦ ﻟِ َﻤ ِﺮ‬

ُ َ‫ﻳﺾ ﻳ‬
The author said Yadhuruh ( ُ‫ﻀ ﱡﺮﻩ‬
ُ َ‫ )ﻳ‬means, if fasting is harmful. If it causes him harm, due to
his illness. Now illness is different types, some may affect person’s fast and some does not.
That’s why the author added the stipulation Yadhuruh. Now we need to understand here,
what’s the standard for an illness that permits one to break his fast.
ILLNESS IS THREE TYPES FROM A FIQH PERSPECTIVE
THE FIRST TYPE
If one fears if fasting will cause his illness to worsen or it may slow the recovery or progress,
then it’s Sunnah to break that fast. This is what the author was talking about. This is the
category that he meant it is Sunnah to break your fast. Actually this is the opinion of a great
vast majority of the ‘Ulamaa.
THE SECOND TYPE
Is when fasting may cause someone to reach the level of danger, something like death or
close to death or extreme hardship. Now in this one is not only Sunnah to break your fast
but it is Waajib upon you to break your fast. It’s the mercy of The Most Merciful Allah
subhaanahu wa ta’aala that he obligated fasting and he also obligated that one breaks his
fast if the fasting puts his illness at danger. Someone with a Kidney failure, diabetic, if he
puts his life in danger thinking he is doing good he has in reality sinned. May gets sins
because of it
Page | 98
﴾٢٩ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﻨﺴﺎء‬...‫ َوﻻَ ﺗَـ ْﻘﺘُـﻠُﻮاْ أَﻧ ُﻔ َﺴ ُﻜ ْﻢ‬...
And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). (Surat an-Nisaa’: 29)
Don’t kill yourselves. The verse don’t kill yourself applies to circumstance and situations like
this. In a Hadith in Sunan Abu Dawud, Amr Ibn Al -'Aas said I was in the battle on the journey
of The Battle of Dhat al-Salaasil and I had a sexual dream in one of the nights. He said I was
afraid to wash myself with water because it was cold, it was freezing. So he said I performed
Tayammum, instead of washing and taking a shower with water, he did Tayammum with
dirt. Not only he made Salaatul Fajr but he led Salaatul Fajr. So the Companions when they
reach Madinah they went to the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. They said Amr Ibn Al
-'Aas had a sexual dream and he didn’t take a shower, rather he did Tayammum. The
Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Amr you led your Companions while you where
impure (the major impurity)?
Amr Ibn Al -'Aas explained to the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam what had happened,
and he was afraid that it might cause extreme hardships to him. Then he told the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and I heard Allah say:
﴾٢٩ : ‫ َوﻻَ ﺗَـ ْﻘﺘُـﻠُﻮاْ أَﻧ ُﻔ َﺴ ُﻜ ْﻢ إِ ﱠن اﻟﻠّ َﻪ َﻛﺎ َن ﺑِ ُﻜ ْﻢ َرِﺣﻴﻤﺎً ﴿اﻟﻨﺴﺎء‬...

And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allah is Most Merciful to you. (Surat
an-Nisaa’: 29)
Don’t kill yourself, verily Allah is Merciful with you. This is Amr explaining to the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam began to laugh and
didn’t say anything. When the Messenger laughs, he didn’t say anything that implies
approval, that’s approval. Had he been silent that would have been approval. When he
laughed, that’s additional confirmation of the approval. Not only did he approve what he
did, but he approved his usage of the verse, Don’t kill yourself in circumstances like that.
Using Tayammum of dirt instead of water when he fears that it may cause him some kind of
harm.
THE THIRD TYPE
The third type of illness is that which does not affect a person. Like a little pain you got in
your finger, a toothache, a little head, a cough or some mild form of allergy. If it is
something that has no affect with fast, it does not affect your fast the ‘Ulamaa disputed if
one can break his fast in this type or not.
Page | 99
The majority of the Fuqahaa' say, the illness in the verse that exempts one from fasting is
not any type of illness. It’s an illness that has to be in category one or category two that we
mentioned. Something like this category is Haraam to break your fast for.
Number two opinions, some of the Salaf disagreed. They said one can break his fast even if
it is a small pain on the tip of your finger or a little toothache.
Their proof is that, the main proof that they use is; when Allah subhaanahu wa ta’aala said:

﴾١٨٤ : ‫﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬
They said it is not specified that it has to extreme illness. So any type of illness is sufficient.
Al-Adharidi said, I entered up Muhammad Ibn Sirin when he was eating in Ramadhaan. It
appears from the story that it did look like Ibn Sirin was ill, otherwise he wouldn’t have
asked him. Al-Adharidi asked Ibn Sirin, why are you eating in Ramadhaan? Muhammad Ibn
Sirin Rahimahullah said, because I hurt my finger. Al-Qurtubi the ‘Aalim, the Mufassir, the
Fiqhih. Al-Qurtubi commenting on this and says; this is the best opinion on this matter in
this situation. A little tiny pain in his finger. Now Ibn Jurayj also said I asked ‘Aadha, what
illnesses can I break my fast for? ‘Aadha said, any type of illness. This was actually the
opinion of Bukhari Rahimahullah. He said I was ill in Nisabur and Ishaaq Ibn Rahway came in.
He (Ishaq Ibn Rahway) asked, did you break you fast? Bukahri said, yes. He said that’s good
because I thought you wouldn’t take the Rukhsah meaning I didn’t think you wouldn’t take
the permission of Allah excusing you and allowing you to break your fast.
Another proof is they said the traveller and ill are combined in the Ayah. Just like one can
break is fast for any type of travel, they can break their fast for any type of illness.

And then they said, in the verse:
Page | 100
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻳُ ِﺮﻳ ُﺪ اﻟﻠﱠﻪُ ﺑِ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟْﻴُ ْﺴ َﺮ َوَﻻ ﻳُ ِﺮﻳ ُﺪ ﺑِ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟ ُْﻌ ْﺴ َﺮ‬...
Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you. (Surat al-
Baqarah: 185)
The other ‘Ulamaa responded to this. They said just like we don’t consider a short travel a
reason for you to break your fast, a minor illness is also not a reason to break your fast. A
short journey from a Fiqh perspective is not considered a journey, they said. And likewise a
minor illness an illness from a Fiqh perspective.
So as you see there is two opinions on this matter, an illness which is considered minor
illness. However is probably safer and closer to the truth not to adopt the opinion that any
illness constitutes an exemption from fasting. Yes, the verse is broad and it’s mentioned just
illness but that illness is tied to a reason, which is making it easy for you. If it is not making it
easier for you then it probably more correct to say it is Haraam to break your fast. The
excuse for the ill should only be what falls under the first two categories. If one fears that
fasting will make his illness worst or slow the recovery or progress then that’s Sunnah. If it
causes extreme hardship something like death or near death or very extreme hardships
then it’s Waajib upon you and you must break your fast.
Normal day to day illness will not affect your fast and therefore one should not break his
fast. In fact the correct opinion that I believe is Haraam. However one must know that, that
opinion, the opinion of the little pain in your finger or your tooth is adopted by giants of the
‘Ulamaa and the Salaf and that’s why it should be respected. Like we said Ibn Sirin, Bukhari
and others.
One matter worthy of noting is that Ibn Hazm adopted the opinion and he said, that if one is
ill, under category one or two, it’s Haraam for him to fast and his fasting is rejected,
because Allah said;
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻓَ ِﻌ ﱠﺪةٌ ﱢﻣ ْﻦ أَﻳﱠ ٍﺎم أُ َﺧ َﺮ‬...

The same number [of days which one did not observe Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from
other days. (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
So he considered first of all Haraam, it’s sinful but also it’s not valid, because a sick person
according to him should not be fasting in Ramadhaan.
That’s of course an extreme opinion, some said also the timing of the fast for one who is ill
is not even in Ramadhaan, if you are sick and you are in Ramadhaan, you are not supposed
to be fasting because that’s not the timing.
Page | 101
Allah said:
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻓَ ِﻌ ﱠﺪةٌ ﱢﻣ ْﻦ أَﻳﱠ ٍﺎم أُ َﺧ َﺮ‬...

The same number [of days which one did not observe Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from
other days. (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
Make up from other days. That’s like me praying before the time, I get up before Asr ten,
fifteen minutes and I make the Asr. They said the timing of one who is ill is not during
Ramadhaan, he fast after Ramadhaan if he’s ill.
WHO JUDGES THE ILLNESS?
Some matter they are obvious, you can judge for yourself. You know your illness yourself.
Sometimes it’s a doctor who can advice you and tell you because sometimes you may not
even feel it and they can tell you there is something wrong. It can even be the ‘Ulamaa said
a Kaafir doctor.
A PERSON ON A JOURNEY
Then he mentions after this:
ِ ِ
ْ ‫َوﻟ ُﻤ َﺴﺎﻓ ٍﺮ ﻳَـ ْﻘ‬
‫ﺼ ُﺮ‬
After the person who is ill, he said a person on a journey.
That’s in the same verse:

﴾١٨٤ : ‫﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬
The proof is in the same verse. He said it’s Sunnah to break the fast for one who’s travelling,
the distance that he is permitted to shorten his prayer. Notice he said for a traveler who
travels the distance of one who is allowed to shorten his prayer.
Page | 102
The term Safar (‫ )ﺳﻔﺮ‬in Arabic means linguistically, one who clears away from his city. One
who leave his vicinity or city and clears away from it he is called a Musaafir. Just like a
Mufassir comes from the same root word. A Mufassir clears the meaning of the Qur’an for
us and a Musaafir clears away from his town or vicinity. That’s the linguistic, figurative
meaning of Safar.
The author said you can break your fast if the distance of your journey is the distance of one
who is allowed and permitted to shorten his Salah.
THE DISTANCE ONE IS PERMITTED TO SHORTEN HIS SALAH
If we know that distance, that’s the type of journey one is allowed to break his fasting. This
is a greatly disputed issue and it is not the core of our fasting and it would take more than
double this Halaqah to explain the opinions with proves. Some specified a wide range of
distances like eighty-three kilometers, a little bit less or a little bit more and they went by
the distance. Some went by days and they said three days, a little bit less than that, some
said more than that. Some when by the distances of night and day, this was large group of
‘Ulamaa because the Hadith:
‫ﻳﻮﻣﺎ وﻟﻴﻠﺔً إﻻ ﻣﻊ ذى ﻣﺤﺮم‬

ً ‫ﻻ ﻳﺤﻞ ﻻﻣﺮأة ﺗﺴﺎﻓﺮ ﻣﺴﺆ ﻣﺴﺎﻓﺔ‬
The Messenger said a woman can’t travel in distances of night and day without a Mahram.
And he called night and day Safar (journey), so they adopted that.
Ibn Taymiyyah adopted the opinion that, the correct opinion on this is based on ‘Urf. If one
leaves his area, vicinity and what’s commonly widespread and known as travel, then that’s
travel. I love that opinion and that’s what I go by. Many who I studied with also like that
opinion, but when they’ll be asked they would go by eighty or eighty-five kilometers to be
safe.
Now keep in mind, breaking fast is your right even if there’s no hardship. Even if there’s no
Mashaqah, that’s not a condition. So if you are travelling First Class on a journey and there’s
no hardship, you can still break your fast if it is considered travel.
IS IT BETTER TO FAST OR NOT?
There’s numerous Ahaadith that the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the
Sahaabah fasted in their journey. And there’s other Ahaadith where the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the Sahaabah broke their fast while they were travelling.
Now let go through the details of it.
Page | 103
The first one is if you are on a journey and if you were to fast on that journey would cause
severe hardship or death, this is similar to what we took just moments ago in the second
category of someone who fast while he is ill and it causes severe hardship or death. It would
be Haraam because the Hadith of Amr Ibn Al -'Aas radhiallahu ‘anhu and the understanding
of the verse:
﴾٢٩ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﻨﺴﺎء‬...‫ َوﻻَ ﺗَـ ْﻘﺘُـﻠُﻮاْ أَﻧ ُﻔ َﺴ ُﻜ ْﻢ‬...

And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). (Surat an-Nisaa’: 29)
In fact the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he left to Makkah during the year of
conquest, it was in Ramadhaan, he was fasting. And he and the people fasted until they
reached a town on their way there. From the mercy of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam is that he must have seen the Sahaabah were in a hardship and yet they didn’t want
to break their fast. So he went and asked for a cup of water and then he elevated it so
people could see and then he began to drink. He was informed later on some refused or
continued to fast, they continued their fast. So the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said- those who continued to fast: those are the disobedience ones, those are the
disobedience ones.
‫ أوﻟﺌﻚ ﻫﻢ اﻟﻌﺼﺎة‬، ‫أوﻟﺌﻚ ﻫﻢ اﻟﻌﺼﺎة‬

That’s the ruling if it is difficult or causes one harm.
WHAT IF IT IS NOT DIFFICULT?

Assume you journey is not difficult. Here are the opinions on that.
THE FIRST OPINION
The first opinion according to this book and it is the opinion of the Hanbali Madhab and it is
also the opinion of Ibn Umar, Ibn Abbaas, Sa'eed Ibn Al-Musayyib, ash-Shabi, al-Awza’i that
it is better not to fast. The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam seen people gathered
around the a man. So he asked them what was happening. They said it’s a man who
exhausted because of his fasting.
The Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, it’s not righteousness to fast when
travelling:
Page | 104
‫ﺴ َﻔﺮ‬
‫ﻴﺎم ﻓﻲ اﻟ ﱠ‬
ُ ‫ﺼ‬ ‫ﻟﻴﺲ ِﻣﻦ اﻟﺒِ ﱢﺮ اﻟ ﱢ‬
This Hadith applies to the previous scenario when fasting is exhausting to that point, where
he must have passed out.
However, this group took what the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said:
‫ﺴ َﻔﺮ‬
‫ﻴﺎم ﻓﻲ اﻟ ﱠ‬
ُ ‫ﺼ‬ ‫ﻟﻴﺲ ِﻣﻦ اﻟﺒِ ﱢﺮ اﻟ ﱢ‬
It is not righteousness for one fast while he is travelling.
Imaam Ahmad Rahimahullah said Ibn Umar and Abu Hurairah the opinion that if one were
to fast while he is travelling, then he needs to make it up. That’s another way of saying that
his Siyaam while travelling is invalid. It is said that Ibn Umar also adopted that opinion. Ibn
Hazm Rahimahullah said al-Zuhri narrated that Abdur-Rahman Ibn ‘Awf radhiallahu ‘anhu
said, one who fast while he is travelling on a journey it’s like one who break his while he is
at home. You know are sinful it is for some to be sitting at home and break his fast, while he
has no excuse. Abdur-Rahman Ibn Awf said he gets the same amount of sin for one who
travels and fast.
THE SECOND OPINION
It is by the majority of the ‘Ulamaa. They said it is permissible to fast while you are travelling
unless of course it falls under the category of being exhaustive or causes extreme hardship
or death. Ibn Abdul Barr responded to the previous opinion, like that of which Abdur-
Rahman Ibn Awf said and others said, we will considered it prohibited or invalid to fast while
you are travelling; Ibn Abdul Barr said is this opinion been abandoned by the ‘Ulamaa. That
it is Haraam or in valid to fast while you are travelling and it has been by the Hadith in
Bukhari and Muslim. Where a man asked the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam; shall I
fast while travelling?
He said sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, if you would like to fast, fast. And if you would like to
break your fast, break it.
‫ﺖ ﻓَﺄَﻓْ ِﻄ ْﺮ‬
َ ‫ َوإِ ْن ِﺷ ْﺌ‬، ‫ﺼ ْﻢ‬ َ ‫إِ ْن ِﺷ ْﺌ‬
ُ َ‫ﺖ ﻓ‬
That’s the answer to this matter. That’s the correct opinion. If you wish then fast, and if you
wish then don’t fast. That’s the opinion on this matter. In another narration in Sunan al-
Nisa'i that man who asked was Amr Al-Aslami, he said O Messenger of Allah if I am able, if I
Page | 105
am able to fast while I am travelling, can I fast? He said, if you wish then fast and if you wish
don’t fast.
More so in Bukhari and Muslim Anas Ibn Maalik said we travelled with the Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam during the month of Ramadhaan. Those who observe the fast
found not fault with the breaker of the fast and those who broke their fast found no fault
with the one who observe the fast.
So the first opinion is that is Haraam to fast even if it is not difficult. The second opinion is a
matter of preference.
THE THIRD OPINION
The third opinion is that by Abu Haneefah, Maalik, Ash-Shaafi’ee, Anas, Uthman Ibn Abi al-
‘As, ‘Umar Ibn 'Abdul Aziz, Mujahid, Qutaadah and others. They said it is better to fast while
you are on your journey.
The correct opinion on this what Qutaadah Rahimahullah said. He said the best choice for
one traveling, it’s what’s easier for him because Allah said:
﴾١٨٥ : ‫ ﴿اﻟﺒﻘﺮة‬...‫ﻳُ ِﺮﻳ ُﺪ اﻟﻠﱠﻪُ ﺑِ ُﻜ ُﻢ اﻟْﻴُ ْﺴ َﺮ‬...

Allah intends for you ease. (Surat al-Baqarah: 185)
The hardship and it is not that difficult then it is a matter of preference. Some who likes to
fast to get it over with in Ramadhaan. They don’t feel good about delaying Ramadhaan or
making up days, they’d rather fast it in Ramadhaan, then the can do it in Ramadhaan while
they are traveling. Some don’t like to miss days of Ramadhaan because they’re a blessing
and if they travel they don’t want to take off days of Ramadhaan day. They’re blessed days,
they’re cherished days, so they like to do it in Ramadhaan. They don’t want to the make up
day. Some it may be easier for them to fast in Ramadhaan because everyone is fasting in
whatever Muslim country that you go to. Wherever you have relative they’re all fasting. So
it is easier to do it in Ramadhaan. When the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ordered
them, it was because of a hardships.
What it boils down to is as long as one doesn’t cause him some harm, then it is a matter of
preference. Ibn Abdul Barr Rahimahullah said and he responded to those who consider it
invalid or Haraam, he said that’s been an opinion that has been abandon by the Fuqahaa’
for the Hadith in Bukhari and Muslim where the Messenger gave Al Aslami the choice
between fasting or not when he said he is able to fast if he travels.

IMPORTANT MATTERS CONCERNING RAMADAN
IMPORTANT MATTERS CONCERNING RAMADAN

By SHAIKH ABDULLAH FAISAL
July 07th 2013 (Evening dars)
Notes typed by AT 8
Edited by muminah_29
Abu Huraira (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Allah the Exalted and Majestic
said: 'Every act of the son of Adam is for him, except As-Siyam (the fasting) which is (exclusively)
for Me, and I will reward him for it.' Fasting is a shield. When anyone of you is observing fast, he
should neither indulge in obscene language nor should he raise his voice; and if anyone reviles
him or tries to quarrel with him, he should say: 'I am fasting.' By Him in Whose Hand the soul of
Muhammad is, the breath of one observing Saum is sweeter to Allah than the fragrance of musk.
The one who fasts, experiences two joys: he feels pleasure when he breaks the fast. He is joyful
by virtue of his fast when he meets his Rubb."
We are on the brink of RAMADAN; therefore we shall speak about RAMADAN

The Prophet (SAWS) said that every deed of Mankind is for themselves except FASTING, as
fasting is for ALLAH.
Ramadan is such a vast subject we can speak about it for many nights
The following hadith is classified as Munkar (weaker than Daeef)
The first part of the month of Ramadaan is mercy, the middle of it is forgiveness and the end of it
is freedom from the Fire." [This hadeeth is Munkar (rejected).]
[Silsilah-Daeefah No. 1569]

It has been reported by Al-'Uqaylee in Ad-Du'afaah (172), Ibn 'Adee (1/165), Al-Khateeb in Al-
Muwadih (2/77), Ad-Daylamee (1/1/10-11) and Ibn 'Asaakir (8/506/1) from Sallaam Bin Sawwar from
Maslamah Bin As-Salt from az-Zuhree from Abi Salamah from Abu Hurayrah who said that the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: .... and then mentioned the above hadeeth.
Al-'Uqaylee said: "It has no basis of it to be from the hadeeth narrated by az-Zuhree"
I say: Ibn 'Adee said: "Sallaam (ibn Sulayman ibn Sawwar) is in my view rejected in Hadeeth and
Maslamah in not known." And this is also said by adh-Dhahabi.
Abu Haatim said about Maslamah that he is matrook in Hadeeth (i.e. his ahadeeth are abandoned)
as mentioned in the translation of "al-Meezan" and it comes at the end of the hadeeth number
1580.
Shaikh is quoting the above Hadith because it has gained considerable amount of fame in
households even though it is Munkar
There is one man who is not accountable in the chain of the Hadith
However, you will hear Scholars quoting it on TV for the benefit of the Ummah
WHY IS IT THAT ALLAH CHOSE THE MONTH OF RAMADAN FOR US
TO FAST IN
Allah chose the month of Ramadan for us to fast in, because of the answer given in the following
Ayah:
The month of Ramadān in which was revealed the Qur'ān, a guidance for mankind and clear
proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights
(the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadān i.e. is present at his home), he must
observe Saum (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days
which one did not observe Saum (fasts) must be made up] from other days.
(Al-Baqarah 2:185)
ALLAH revealed to us the HOLY QURAN in the Month of Ramadan

The Quran is the Criterion between Right and Wrong and Guidance for Mankind from ALLAH
Therefore ALLAH is reminding us that we must be grateful and thankful to HIM for revealing to us,
the HOLY QURAN
The greatest Miracle of Muhammad (SAWS) is the HOLY QURAN

It is a book that has predicted the FUTURE for mankind, and all its predictions will come to pass
It is a book with scientific facts that are accurate and being proven as our technology and
research advances
It is a book without a single literal or grammatical mistake, even though the Prophet (SAWS) was
unable to read or write
We have neglected nothing in the Book, then unto their Lord they (all) shall be gathered.
(Al-An'am 6:38)
Every subject that you want to learn about is present and explained in the Quran
The Quran is the FURQAAN (Criterion) for you to judge between right from wrong and good from
evil.
Therefore, we must be extremely thankful and grateful to ALLAH, who has bestowed upon us this
MERCY
We express our gratitude by fasting for the whole month of RAMADAN
Ibn Kathir in his TAFSEER said: Indeed Allah has revealed the most sacred book in the best
language (ARABIC) via HIS closest angel (JIBREEL) to HIS favourite Prophet (Muhammad SAWS )
in the holiest month (RAMADAN), in the most sacred City (MAKKAH)
ARABIC is the SUNNAH OF ALLAH
Verily, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'ān in order that you may understand.
(Yusuf 12:2)
The reason ALLAH chose to reveal the Quran in the Arabic language is because it is a language
free from ambiguities.
IF Allah revealed the Quran in a Pigeon (Many Ambiguities) Language, then people could mess
around with the word of ALLAH
Imam Shafi'i (rh) said: "Every Muslim is obligated to learn the Arabic tongue to the utmost of his
power in order [to be able] to profess through it that "There is no Ilah but Allah and Muhammad is
His Messenger" and to utter what is mandated upon him, the takbir, and what is commanded, the
tasbih, and the tashahhud and others."
[Al-Risala al-Shafi'i (pg. 47)]
Ibn Taymiyyah said: “As for becoming accustomed to talking to one another in a language other
than Arabic, which is the symbol of Islam and the language of the Qur’aan, so that this becomes a
habit in the land, with one’s family and household members, with one’s friends, in the
marketplace, when addressing government representatives or authority figures or when speaking
to people of knowledge, undoubtedly this is makrooh (disliked), because it involves being like the
non-Arabs, which is makrooh, as stated previously.
Hence when the early Muslims went to live in Syria and Egypt, where the people spoke Byzantine
Greek, and in Iraq and Khurasaan, where the people spoke Farsi, and the Maghrib (North Africa)
where the people spoke Berber, they taught the people of those countries to speak Arabic, so that
Arabic became the prevalent language in those lands, and all the people, Muslim and kaafir alike,
spoke Arabic. Such was also the case in Khurasaan in the past, then they became lax with regard
to the language and got used to speaking Farsi until it became prevalent and Arabic was forgotten
by most of them. Undoubtedly this is makrooh.
The best way is to become accustomed to speaking Arabic so that the young people will learn it in
their homes and schools, so that the symbol of Islam and its people will prevail. This will make it
easier for the people of Islam to understand the Qur’aan and Sunnah, and the words of the Salaf,
unlike a person who gets used to speaking one language, then wants to learn another, and finds it
difficult.
AuthenticTauheed5: Know that being used to using a language has a clear and strong effect on
one’s thinking, behaviour and religious commitment. It also has an effect on making one resemble
the early generations of this Ummah, the Sahaabah and Taabi’een. Being like them improves
one’s thinking, religious commitment and behaviour.
Moreover, the Arabic language itself is part of Islam, and knowing Arabic is an obligatory duty. If it
is a duty to understand the Qur’aan and Sunnah, and they cannot be understood without knowing
Arabic, then the means that is needed to fulfil the duty is also obligatory.
There are things which are obligatory on all individuals (fard ‘ayn), and others which are
obligatory on the community or ummah (fard kifaayah, i.e., if some people fulfil them the rest are
relieved of the obligation).
This is the meaning of the report narrated by Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah who said: ‘Eesa ibn
Yoonus told us from Thawr from ‘Umar ibn Yazeed that ‘Umar wrote to Abu Moosa al-Ash’ari (may
Allaah be pleased with him) and said: ‘learn the Sunnah and learn Arabic; learn the Qur’aan in
Arabic for it is Arabic.’
According to another hadeeth narrated from ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him), he said:
‘Learn Arabic for it is part of your religion, and learn how the estate of the deceased should be
divided (faraa’id) for these are part of your religion.’
This command of ‘Umar, to learn Arabic and Sharee’ah, combines the things that are needed, for
religion involves understanding words and actions. Understanding Arabic is the way to
understand the words of Islam, and understanding the Sunnah is the way to understand the
actions of Islam…”
[Iqtida' as-Sirat al-Mustaqeem (1/526-528)]
Every word in Arabic is classified as either Masculine or Feminine, therefore it is nearly
impossible to change meanings from their place or cause confusion.
The Spaniards changed their own language and followed the rules of Arabic when the Muslims
conquered them.
It is compulsory for us to learn the ARABIC language.

Ibn Taymiyyah and Imam Shafii said to learn Arabic is FARD
The Arabic language is the best language in the World
The Quran was revealed in MAKKAH, which is the MOTHER OF ALL CITIES
And this (the Qur'ān) is a blessed Book which We have sent down, confirming (the revelations)
which came before it, so that you may warn the Mother of Towns (i.e. Makkah) and all those
around it. Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in (the Qur'ān), and they are constant in
guarding their Salāt (prayers).
(Al-An'am 6:92)
Every other city is inferior to Makkah

Allah said that Makkah is the CITY OF SAFETY and SECURITY
By the fig, and the olive, (At-Tin 95:1)
By Mount Sinai, (At-Tin 95:2)
And by this city of security (Makkah), (At-Tin 95:3)
And (remember) when Ibrāhim (Abraham) said, "My Lord, make this city (Makkah) a place of
security and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in Allāh and the Last Day." He
(Allāh) answered: "As for him who disbelieves, I shall leave him in contentment for a while, then I
shall compel him to the torment of the Fire, and worst indeed is that destination!"
(Al-Baqarah 2:126)
The Dua of Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.) made Makkah a city of safety and security and abundant with
food
ALLAH is asking us a crucial question in the following Ayah
Have they not seen that We have made (Makkah) a sanctuary secure, and that men are being
snatched away from all around them? Then do they believe in Bātil (falsehood - polytheism, idols
and all deities other than Allāh), and deny (become ingrate for) the Graces of Allāh?
(Al-'Ankabut 29:67)
ALLAH has made Makkah a city of safety and security while men are being snatched and killed
from every other part of the world
HOW TO GAIN SPIRITUALLY FORM THE MONTH OF RAMDAN

The Holy Prophet (SAWS) said some of you fast and only get hunger and thirst
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “There may be a fasting person
who gets nothing more from his fast than hunger and thirst, and there may be a person who prays
qiyaam and all he gets from his qiyaam is a sleepless night.”
[Musnad Ahmad (2/373) No. 8843, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/591) No. 1690, Sunan al-Darime (2/390) No.
2720, Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah (3/242) No. 1997]
Since we do not want to be part of that category it is important for us to know how to gain
spiritually from fasting in Ramadan
In order for us to gain spiritually in Ramadan we need to approach RAMADAN from a SPIRITUAL
angle and not a CULTURAL angle
We fast due to spiritual reasons and not cultural reasons

Therefore we are going to become spiritual Muslims and not Cultural Muslims
In order for us to gain spiritually, all of our limbs have to fast
The first thing we must take care of when we FAST, is our heart.
Our HEART fasts by having the right intention to fast.
IKHLASS AN NIYYAH. To PLEASE ALLAH

Not to lose weight or be part of a culture
Hafsah (RA) reported the Prophet (SAW) as saying, “He, who has not formed an intention (to fast)
before dawn, has not fasted”.
[Sunan Tirmidhi (3/108) No. 730, Sunan Abu Dawud (2/329) No. 2454, Sunan al-Nasa'i (4/196) No.
2331, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/598) No. 1700, Sunan al-Darime (2/12) No. 1698, Musnad Ahmad (6/287)
No. 26500]
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said: “Whoever thinks in his heart that he will fast tomorrow has
formed the intention.”
[Majmu' al-Fatawa al-Kubra (5/375)]
Anyone who does not make his Niyyah before the Azan of Fajr has no fast for that day; therefore
you need to make your Niyyah, even if it is the night before
We must learn how to make our intention of fasting in ARABIC
Nawaytu an asoom gadan min shahr Ramadan
You have to make 30 intentions’ for the 30 days of RAMADAN
We must also learn how to make our DUA to break our fast in ARABIC at the time of MAGHRIB
allahumma laka sumtu wa alay rizqika aftartu
Mu'adh bin Zuhrah narrated the Prophet (SAW) used to say when he broke his fast: "Allahumma
laka sumtu wa 'ala rizqika aftartu (O Allah, for You have I fasted and by Your provision I have
broken my fast)."
[Sunan Abu Dawud (2/306) No. 2358, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (4/403) No. 8134]
The above mentioned DUA in Arabic and transliterated in English is how you break your fast.
To gain spiritually from RAMADAN, not only does your HEART need to fast, but YOUR TWO EYES
HAVE TO FAST from abstaining from looking at bad things
Your EARS HAVE TO FAST from avoiding listening to bad things
Your TONGUE has to fast from telling lies, backbiting and other bad things
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever does not give up forged speech and
evil actions, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his
fasting.)
Your HANDS have to fast from stealing and killing innocent people (NOTE: You are allowed to do
JIHAD in Ramadan)
Your PRIVATE PARTS have to fast, you are not allowed to go to bed with your wife until after
Maghrib
If you are able to restrain your Private Parts form your wife who is Halal for you, it becomes easy
to restrain your private parts from a woman who is Haraam for you
The Haraam woman could be a girlfriend or a mistress
Your TWO FEET have to fast, from going to bad places
COMMITING SINS WHILE FASTING - DO THEY BREAK OUR FAST?

According to Aisha (r.a) THE MOTHER OF THE BELIEVERS and THE WIFE OF THE PROPHET
(SAWS) those who backbite and slander have broken their fast and need to make up their fast for
that day
According to the Dhaahiriyyah madhab the same opinion applies. If you backbite and slander,
your fast is invalidated and you must make it up again.
Ubaid, the freed slave of the Prophet (SAW), reported “Two women were once fasting during the
lifetime of Allah’s Messenger and they almost died of thirst. This was mentioned to the Prophet
(SAW) but he turned away from (allowing) them (to break the fast). Then they were mentioned to
him again, so he called for them and ordered them to vomit, i.e. throw up, what was in their
stomachs. So they both vomited and filled up a bowl with puss, blood and pieces of flesh. Then
the Prophet (SAW) said: ‘These two fasted by refraining from what Allah made lawful for them. but
they broke their fast by doing what Allah made unlawful for them. One of them sat with the other
and they began to eat from the flesh of people.’”
The Dhaahiriyyah madhab uses the above mentioned Hadith as their HUJJAH
However, the Majority of the Scholars are of the Opinion that if you backbite and slander while
fasting, you gain the Wrath and Curse of ALLAH for your backbiting and slandering
Therefore, the fasting Muslim has to avoid anything that would break or even impair his/her
fasting and in order to gain BARAKAH for your fasting.
Fasting is an act of worship that aims at purifying the soul, reviving the conscience, strengthening
faith and making a Muslim more pious. Allah, Exalted be He, says, (O you who believe, fasting is
prescribed for you, even as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may ward off evil.)
(Al-Baqarah 2:183)
By the time ALLAH has deleted your Barakah for backbiting, you might end up without any
Barakah.
It all depends on the amount of backbiting you did.
Valid fasting is that which purifies one's soul and imbues goodness and righteousness into one's
heart, so that one may ward off evil, as conveyed in the words of Allah, Exalted be He, Who says:
(O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you, even as it was prescribed for those before you,
that you may ward off (evil).)
(Al-Baqarah 2:183)
Thus, whoever fasts in Ramadan is obliged to refrain from saying or doing anything that is
contradictory to the elevated manners expected from a fasting Muslim so as not to lose Allah's
reward for fasting and gain nothing but hunger, thirst, and deprivation, as explained in the Hadith,
"Fasting is a kind of protection. So, when anyone of you gets up in the morning in the state of
fasting, he should neither use obscene language nor do any act of ignorance. And if anyone
insults him or quarrels with him, he should say, ‘I am fasting, I am fasting.'"
(Reported by Al-Bukhari and Muslim)
Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have said, "Many a one who
fasts obtains nothing from his fasting but hunger and thirst, and many a one who prays during the
night obtains nothing from his night prayers but wakefulness."
(Reported by Al Nasa'i, Ibn Majah, and Al-Hakim, and is said to be authentic on the condition of Al-
Bukhari)
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is also reported to have said, "Whoever does not
give up false speech (telling lies and the like) and acting upon it, Allah is not in need of his leaving
his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his fasting).”
(Reported by Al-Bukhari, Ahmad, and others)
Ibn Al-Àrabi maintains: This Hadith indicates that whoever does not abandon such evil deeds will
not be rewarded for his fasting, i.e. false speech (telling lies and the like) and acting upon it are
blameworthy to an extent that exceeds all limits. Ibn Hazm is of the opinion that committing such
sins invalidates one's fasting, in the same way that the act of eating and drinking deliberately do.
This was held by some of the Prophet’s Companions and followers.
Ùmar ibn Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Fasting is not only to quit food and
drink, but also to refrain from telling lies, falsehood, and idle talk." Àli ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be
pleased with him) was reported as having the same point of view. Jabir Àbdullah Al-Ansari also
said: “When you fast, your eyes, ears, and tongue should abstain from falsehood and sins. You
should avoid hurting your servant. Refrain from anything demoralizing, and portray a picture of
tranquility while fasting for the day, your behavior on the day you are fasting should be better
than other days.”
Taliq ibn Qais reported that Abu Dharr said: “When you are fasting you should be on your guard
(against wrong actions) as much as you can.” Then Taliq observed, he used to stay home and not
to go out except for performing prayer. Abu Hurairah and his friends also used to stay in the
mosque while fasting saying, "Let us keep our fasting pure." It is narrated on the authority of
Maimun ibn Mahran that quitting food and drink is the easiest task required for valid fast.
To put it briefly, when one commits sins while fasting, one is to be rewarded for fasting, and
punished for the sins he committed, according to the following verse,
(And everything with Him is measured.) (Ar-Ra`d 13:8)
So, one is held accountable for each of his deeds separately, as is explained in another verse,
(My Lord neither errs nor forgets.)(Taha 20:52)
Let us reflect on the following Hadith concerning Allah’s reckoning His servants on the Day of
Judgment in order to find the proper answer for this and the two preceding questions. At-Tirmidhi
and Ahmad narrate on the authority of À'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that one of the
Prophet’s Companions came and when he sat down in front of Allah's Messenger (peace and
blessings be upon him) he said: "Messenger of Allah, I have slaves who lie to me, deceive me and
disobey me, and I revile and beat them. What do you think is my ruling as regards them?" Allah’s
Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) replied:
"On the Day of Resurrection account will be taken of the extent of their deceit, disobedience and
lying to you, and of the punishment you inflicted on them. If your punishment is less severe than
deserved for their offences, it will be something extra to your credit. If it is exactly right (if it
exactly makes up for their offences), it will count neither for you nor against you (you will neither
be punished nor rewarded for it). But if your punishment was more severe than deserved for their
offences, requital will be taken from you on their behalf for the excess."
The man went aside and began to shout and weep, so Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be
upon him) asked him if he did not recite the words of Allah, Exalted be He,
(We shall place the just scales for the Day of Resurrection and no soul will be wronged in any
respect, and even if there is only the weight of a grain of mustard-seed We shall bring it, and We
are sufficient to take account.)
(Al-Anbiya' 21:47)
Hence, the man returned: "O Messenger of Allah, nothing is better for myself and these men (i.e.,
his slaves) than to leave them. I call you to bear witness that they are all free.
Allah Almighty knows best.
Therefore the fasting person has to avoid anything that breaks or even compromises their fasting.
WHAT ABOUT THE MUSLIM GIRL WHO FASTS BUT DOES

NOT WEAR HIJAAB - IS HER FAST VALID?
The Muslim girl has two things going on at the same time
She is obeying ALLAH by fasting and disobeying ALLAH by not wearing the HIJAAB
Any Muslim woman who does not know the Verses of Hijaab is not a Pious Woman
And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect
their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only
that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way,
or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over
Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment
except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons,
their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their
sisters in Islām), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who
lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp
their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allāh to forgive you
all, O believers, that you may be successful.
(An-Nur 24:31)
So the muslim woman who keeps fast but does not wear her hijaab will be rewarded for fasting
and she will be punished for not wearing the Hijaab.
The two acts are separate and you cannot make them singular.
Her fast is accepted and No Scholar has said her fast is rejected
SHOULD A DIABETIC FAST?

We are not allowed to make a general statement regarding this issue and say a diabetic is not
allowed to fast or that a diabetic should fast.
We take every individual on his own merit
One cannot give a blanket ruling to the effect that all diabetic people must skip fasting and only
need to offer fidyah (compensation). This is because each diabetic person is different from the
other in the way he or she reacts to fasting. If we find one diabetic person is adversely affected by
fasting, we also find another, in spite of being a diabetic, not at all troubled by fasting. This being
the case, one should never assume that all diabetic people are generally exempt from fasting.
AuthenticTauheed5: If a diabetic person has been advised by a reliable physician not to fast, or, if
after monitoring his/her sugar level, it has been established that he/she is adversely affected by
fasting, then he/she is exempt from fasting and should give fidyah instead.
If, on the other hand, it was found that he/she is not adversely affected by fasting, then he/she
must fast, and offering fidyah is not an option in his/her case.
In other words, exemption from fasting is granted only to those who are adversely affected by
fasting. Allah Almighty knows best.
The Scholars of Islam say, if the fasting causes his disease to become aggravated and become
worse then it is Haraam for that person to fast.
If the person is not being aggravated while fasting then, he should fast and fulfill his duty.
And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allāh is Most Merciful to you.
(An-Nisa 4:29)
A Person who is unable to fast must give $200US instead as compensation for the entire month of
Ramadan and fasting is not compulsory on them. (The amount varies from country to country)
If the man is poor and cannot afford the $200, then nothing is compulsory on him, neither the fast
nor the FIDDYA (compensation)
WHAT ABOUT THE PERSON ON REGULAR MEDICATION?

A person who is on regular medication and needs to take tablets during the day to avoid a medical
breakdown, then he is not supposed to fast
You are not allowed to make the DEEN a burden on yourself
Allāh intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you
(Al-Baqarah 2:185)
And strive hard in Allāh's Cause as you ought to strive (with sincerity and with all your efforts that
His Name should be superior). He has chosen you (to convey His Message of Islāmic Monotheism
to mankind by inviting them to His religion, Islām), and has not laid upon you in religion any
hardship, it is the religion of your father Ibrahim (Abraham) (Islāmic Monotheism).
(Al-Hajj 22:78)
Muslim women taking tablets so that they can fast the whole month of
Ramadan without having them to avoid fasting by postponing their
menstruation - Is this Haraam, Halal or Makrooh?
The Scholars of Islam have studied this FIQH question and have come to the conclusion that IN
CASE A TRUSTWORHTY DOCTOR TESTIFIES THAT THEY WILL NOT HAVE ANY SIDE EFFECTS
BY TAKING THE MEDICATION, THEN THEIR ACTION IS HALAL, SINCE THEY ARE DOING IT FOR
PIETY AND NOT OUT OF VANITY
A MUSLIM PATIENT WHO TAKES OXYGEN FROM A TANK TO HELP
HIS BREATHING DIFFICULTY WHILE FASTING - DOES HIS ACTION
BREAK HIS FAST?
The Scholars say, why are you FASTING if you are in such a pathetic state.
Before answering your question, we would like first to state that Islam is the religion of easiness.
It imposes no hardship on its followers. Referring to this, Allah Almighty says,
Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you….”
(Al-Baqarah 185)
In his response to the question, Dr. Muhammad M. M. Abu Laylah, Professor of the Islamic Studies
& Comparative Religions at Al-Azhar University, states the following:
Such use of oxygen to help your mother breathe does not break her fasting. In case harm is
inflicted on her by fasting, she is permitted to break her fasting and she can offer fidyah by
feeding a poor person for every single day of fast she has missed, and she does not need to make
up for the fast she has missed if her sickness remains with her forever.
However, the ANSWER is that taking oxygen into your system mechanically, does not break your
fast because Oxygen is not considered food or drink.
CAN YOU DONATE BLOOD WHILE YOU ARE FASTING?

It stands to reason that Islam teaches us to feed the hungry, to take care of the sick and to save
the life of people. Blood transfusion for medical purposes is permissible in Islam. This is the case
in normal occasions, but what would be the ruling if the donator is fasting?
It is not recommended to donate blood while fasting unless there is an absolute necessity to do
so.
Drawing lots of blood may make a person weak and thus he may be forced to break his fast. So
indulging in such an activity is not at all recommended as we are advised to keep our fasts intact
as best as possible.
Moreover, there are scholars who are of the opinion that drawing lots of blood would invalidate
one’s fast. This is the view of Imam Ahmad. However, Imam Ash-Shafiì and others are of the view
that drawing of blood by itself does not break the fast, but one is not encouraged to do so as it
may render a person weak.
The ruling, however, is different when faced with an emergency. Such is the case when one must
donate blood to save a person’s life; in this case one must do so without any hesitation; it is
better for him to break his fast if he has to than continuing his fast.
Another exception: If a person is exceptionally strong and is certain that donating blood would
not render him weak at all, then there is no harm for him in donating blood, according to the view
of Imam Ash-Shafiì and others.
In conclusion: Each person should consider his own state of health before embarking on this
action.
According to Imam Shaf'ii your fast is still valid. According to the Hanbali madhab if alot of blood
is removed from your body, your fast is broken.
Donating blood does not break your fast because cupping does not break your fast.
But if you have to donate blood as an act of emergency the wise thing to do is to break your fast
for that day and make it up another day
DOES LISTENING TO MUSIC AND WATCHING MOVIES WHILE

FASTING BREAK YOUR FAST
While fasting, a Muslim should train his soul to bring himself near to Allah by doing as many good
deeds as he can and refraining from even wasting his time in valueless deeds.
Fasting in Islam is a great spiritual discipline. Its primary objective is to train the faithful spiritually
and morally. Therefore, in order for us to reap true benefits of fasting, we must not only abstain
from food and drink and sexual relations from dawn to dusk but also must shun all activities and
behavior that are inimical to the spirit of fasting. Proper fasting involves guarding our eyes, ears,
hands, feet, as well as our mind against sins.
The Prophet peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Whoever does not shun foul words and
acting accordingly, there is no need for him to deprive himself of food and drink.” He also said,
“Fasting is a shield (against sins or vices); so if one of you is fasting, let him not engage in
wrangling or foul deeds and idle talk. If anyone scolds or ridicules him, let him not retaliate; rather
he should simply say, I am fasting, I am fasting.”
Listening to music and watching movies, etc. while one is fasting may fall under the categories of
either sins or idle deeds or behavior. According to À’ishah, the beloved wife of the Prophet
(peace and blessings be upon him), as well as great Imams such as Awzaì and a number of
scholars of the pious generations, activities such as backbiting, engaging in gossip and idle chats
will render one’s fast null and void.
Therefore, in their view, those who are guilty of such behavior must make up their fasts. Although
the majority of scholars do not share the same view as far as breaking the fast is concerned,
nevertheless, they also concur that such activities do take away true rewards and blessings of
fasting.
It is, therefore, imperative that we abstain from such behavior altogether. May Allah help us
preserve the sanctity of Ramadan. May He help us to use the great spiritual season to break
ourselves free of such habits.
Listening to Music and watching movies while fasting does not break your fast but it takes away
from the Barakah of your fasting.
Aisha (r.a.) however was of the view that indulging in such activities breaks your fast. The Majority
of Scholars however, have the above mentioned opinion
The Scholars said that those who abstained from all their Haraam activities during Ramadan and
then went back to their Haraam ways do not worship ALLAH but instead they worship RAMADAN
This is because the people went back to their Haraam activities when Ramadan is over
Therefore you need to ask yourself, who do you really worship, ALLAH or RAMADAN
WHY DO PEOPLE STILL SIN IN THE HOLY MONTH OF RAMADAN?

This is because the Shayateen of the JINN are locked up in chains but the Human Shayateen are
not.
And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies - Shayātin (devils) among mankind and
jinns inspiring one another with adorned speech as a delusion (or by way of deception). If your
Lord had so willed, they would not have done it, so leave them alone with their fabrications.
(Tafseer Qurtubi, Vol.7, Page 67)
(Al-An'am 6:112)
The Human Shaiateen encourages the people to dabble in Haraam.

SOME GEMS ABOUT RAMADAAN
SOME GEMS ABOUT RAMADAAN
BY Shaikh Abdullah Faisal
July 08, 2013 (Evening Dars)
Notes by: AT38

Edited by Abu Hafiza 4
Ramadan is Wednesday July 10 2013/ 01 Ramadan 1434 AH
--Therefore the first Taraweeh is Tuesday
RAMADAN IS THE MONTH OF MERCY
Ramadan is the month of mercy, the month of forgiveness and the month of salvation. Like a very
generous guest, it brings with it all sorts of goodness and happiness; a guest that brings with it the
perfumes of Paradise; a guest that gives away at least seventy cents for every cent bartered; a guest that
elevates the status of the believer and leads him/her closer to Allah; a guest that invites the believer to
Paradise, away from Shaitaan (Devil) and Hell Fire. Ramadan is the month of the Qur’an, the month of
charity, the month of solidarity and mutual help, the month of endurance and all blessings.
MERITS/REWARDS IN THE RAMADAN
As to its merits, here below are some prophetic hadith:
Salman Al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him), a Companion of Muhammad (May Allah's blessings
and peace be upon him), narrated: "The Messenger of Allah (May Allah's blessings and peace be upon
him) addressed us on the last day of Sha’ban (the lunar month preceding Ramadan) and said: “People, a
great blessed month has come upon you, a month containing Laylat al-Qadr which is better than a
thousand months. Allah has made fasting during it an obligation, and steadfastly observing its nights in
worship a voluntary act. Whoever undertakes an act of obedience to Allah during this month with a
righteous deed, it is as if he has performed an obligatory act at other times; and whoever performs an
obligatory act during it is as one who performed seventy obligations at other times. It is the month of
patience, and the reward for patience is Paradise It is the month of goodwill, during which provisions are
multiplied. Whoever feeds a fasting person will be compensated with forgiveness of sins and salvation of
his soul from Hell. He will also receive a reward equal to that of the person he feeds, without causing him
any reduction (in his
good deeds)."
REWARDS OF FEEDING A FASTING PERSON
The Companions said: "Not all of us can find something to feed a fasting person." The Prophet (May
Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: "Allah gives this reward to whoever feeds a fasting person
even with just a taste of milk or dates, or a drink of water. Whoever quenches the thirst of a fasting
person, Allah the Almighty makes him drink from my pond such that he will never feel thirsty again until he
enters Paradise.
RAMANDAN IS DIVIDE BY 10 DAYS, EACH 10 DAYS HAS IS OWN CREDENTIALS
It is a month whose beginning is mercy, whose middle is forgiveness and whose end is emancipation
from Hell. Therefore display four characteristics to a greater extent; with two of which you will please your
Lord, and two you cannot dispense with. The two with which you will please your Lord are to testify that
there is no one deserving of worship except Allah, and to seek His forgiveness; whereas the two which
you cannot dispense with are that you beseech Allah to place you in Paradise and that you seek refuge
with Him from Hell."
[Related by Ibn Khuzaymah and Al-Bayhaqi].
Abu Umaamah (may Allah be pleased with him), a companion of Muhammad (May Allah's blessings and
peace be upon him) said: "I said: O Messenger of Allah, tell me of an action by which I may enter
Paradise. He said: Take to Fasting, there is nothing like it."
[Related by An-Nasaa’ee, Ibn Hibbaan, Al-Haakim]
RAMANDAN IS SHIELD FOR YOU
"Allah, the Almighty and Master of Honor, says: "All actions of a person are for himself, except the case of
his fasting which is exclusively for Me and I shall pay (recompense) for him for the same." The fast is a
shield [against vice and the fire of Hell]. Therefore, when anyone of you is fasting s/he should abstain
from loose talk and avoid verbosity and noisy exchange of words." - Muhammad (May Allah's blessings
and peace be upon him)
[Bukhari and Muslim]
FASTINGSS HAS IS REWARD OF SPECIAL GATES IN PARADISE CALL AR-RAYAAN.
Also, Sahl ibn Sa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (May Allah's blessings and
peace be upon him) said: "Indeed there is a gate of Paradise called ar-Rayyaan. On the day of
Resurrection those who fast will enter through it; no one enters it except for them, and when they have
entered, it is closed so that no one enters it, so when the last of them enters it, it is closed, and whoever
enters it drinks, and whoever drinks never becomes thirsty."
[Ibn Khuzaimah].
"Fasting is a shield with which a servant protects himself from the Fire [of Hell]." -Muhammad (May Allah's
blessings and peace be upon him)
[Ahmad]
RAMANDAN IS INTERCESSION FOR YOU ON DAY OF JUDGMENT
"On the Day of Judgment, Fasting will say: O My Lord I prevented him from food and desires so accept
my intercession for him." - Muhammad (May Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)
[Ahmad, al-Hakim and Abu Nu’aim]
"He who fasts Ramadan due to Iman (faith), hoping for reward (from Allah), will have his past sins
forgiven.” Muhammad (May Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)
[Bukhari and Muslim]
"There are in the month of Ramadan in every day and night those to whom Allah grants freedom from the
Fire, and there is for every Muslim a supplication which he can make and will be granted." - Muhammad
(May Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)
[Al-Bazzaar, Ahmad]
Amr ibn Murrah al-Juhaanee (may Allah be pleased with him), a Companion, said: "A man came to the
Prophet May Allah's blessings and peace be upon him and said: O Messenger of Allah, what if I testify
that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah, and I observe
the five daily prayers, and I pay the zakat, and I fast and stand in prayer in Ramadan, then amongst
whom shall I be? He said: Amongst the true followers of the prophets and the martyrs."
[Ibn Hibbaan]
REWARDS OF FEEDING THE FASTING PERSON WITHOUT DIMINISHING
"Anyone who offers meal for the breaking of the fast of another person earns the same merit as the one
who was observing the fast without diminishing in any way the recompense of the fasting person." -
Muhammad (May Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)

THE 21 MERITS OF RAMADAN
BY SHAIKH ABDULLAH FAISAL
03 July 2013 (Evening Dars)
Notes by AT8
Edited By Fatimah_38
- Ramadan is expected to start on the 8TH OF JULY this year

- ALLAH has told us in the HOLY QURAN that HE has given us RAMADAN as a gift.
O you who believe! Observing As-Saum (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for
those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
(Al-Baqarah 2:183)
- The purpose of RAMADAN is for us to learn TAQWA
>>> WHAT IS TAQWA? <<<
- TAQWA means to place between yourself and the WRATH of ALLAH a BARRIER, by doing what is
FARD and abstaining from what is HARAAM
On the authority of Suhail, bin Abi Saleh from his father: ‘A man once asked Abu Hurayra (RA),
‘What is al-taqwa?” He replied, “Have you ever taken a path filled with thorns?” The man replied,
“I have.” Abu Hurayra asked him, “What did you do?” He replied, “When I saw a thorn I would
dodge it or pass over it or behind it.” Abu Hurayra said, “That is al-taqwa.”’
[Al-Zuhd al-Kabir al-Bayhaqi (p350-351) No. 963]
- The whole purpose of fasting in the holy month of Ramadan is for you to accomplish that TAQWA

- RAMADAN KEEPS YOU IN TOUCH WITH THE HOLY QURAN
- This is because you aim to finish reciting the whole Quran in the month of Ramadan
- The Quran was revealed in the Month of RAMADAN
- Even the IMAM in the Masjid completes the QURAN during RAMADAN in his TARAWEEH recitation
- Taraweeh was done individually, as an individual effort before Umar (r.a.) united the Muslims
under one Imam (Ubayy Ibn K'ab) to pray Taraweeh
'Abdur Rahman bin 'Abdul Qari said, "I went out in the company of 'Umar bin Al-Khattab one
night in Ramadan to the mosque and found the people praying in different groups. A man praying
alone or a man praying with a little group behind him. So, 'Umar said, 'In my opinion I would
better collect these (people) under the leadership of one Qari (Reciter) (i.e. let them pray in
congregation!)'. So, he made up his mind to congregate them behind Ubai bin Ka'b. Then on
another night, I went again in his company and the people were praying behind their reciter. On
that, 'Umar remarked, 'What an excellent Bid'a (i.e. innovation in religion) this is; but the prayer
which they do not perform, but sleep at its time is better than the one they are offering.' He
meant the prayer in the last part of the night. (In those days) people used to pray in the early part
of the night."
- This was one of the greatest achievements of Umar (r.a.) during his caliphate, to unite all the
people under one Imam in the Masjid
- Umar told them to do 20 Rakat for Taraweeh.
Ibn Taymiyyah said (when refuting the view of those who quoted ‘Umar’s words “What a good
innovation this is” as meaning that innovation (bid’ah) is permissible): "With regard to qiyaam in
Ramadan, the Messenger of Allah (SAW) introduced this to his ummah, and he led them in prayer
for a number of nights, because at his time they used to pray in congregation and individually.
But he did not persist in leading them in one congregation, lest that be made obligatory for them.
When the Prophet (SAW) died, shariah was established (and would not change after that). When
‘Umar (RA) became caliph, he united them behind one imam, Ubayy ibn Ka’b, who united the
people in one congregation on the orders of ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA). ‘Umar (RA) was one of the
Rightly-Guided Caliphs, of whom the Prophet (SAW) said: “I urge you to adhere to my Sunnah and
the way of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs after me; cling tightly to it.” So what he did was Sunnah but
he said, “What a good innovation this is,” because it was an innovation in the linguistic sense, as
they were doing something that they had not done during the life of the Messenger of Allah
(SAW), i.e., gathering to do this, but it is Sunnah in the shar’i sense.”
[Majmoo’ al-Fataawa (22/234-235)]
- Somebody shouted out Bid'aa and Umar replied this Bid'aa is a Blessing on the Ummah.
- Taraeweeh is not FARD, and therefore the PROPHET (SAWS) would not lead the people in the
Taraweeh prayer, fearing the people would consider it FARD
'A'isha reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) prayed one night in the
mosque and people also prayed along with him. He then prayed on the following night and there
were many persons. Then on the third or fourth night, (many people) gathered there, but the
Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) did not come out to them (for leading the Tarawih
prayer). When it was morning, he said: I saw what you were doing, but I desisted to come to you
(and lead the prayer) for I feared that this prayer might become obligatory for you. (He the
narrator) said: It was the month of Ramadan.
[Sahih Muslim, Book 004, Number 1666]
- The Taraweeh prayer is classified by the scholars as SUNNAH MUAKKADA

- When Umar said BID'AA he was referring to it in a linguistic sense, however it is Sunnah in the
Sharia sense
- The PROPHET (SAWS) did perform TARAWEEH in CONGREGATION
>>> HOW MANY RAKAT SHOULD WE DO FOR TARAWEEH - 8 or 20? <<<
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, when speaking about the matter of
one who prays ten rak’ahs with the imam, then sits down and waits for Witr and does not
complete the Taraaweeh prayers with the imam:
It grieves us deeply that we find in the Muslim ummah a group which differs concerning matters
in which differences of opinion are acceptable, and they take these differences as a means to
cause division. Differences within the ummah existed at the time of the Sahaabah, yet they
remained united. The youth in particular and to all those who are committed to Islam must
remain united, because they have enemies who are laying in wait.
Al-Sharh al-Mumti’, 4/225
- Two groups have gone to extremes with regard to this matter.

- The first group denounced everyone who prays more than eleven rak’ahs and said that doing so
was bid’ah.
- The second group denounced those who do only eleven rak’ahs and said that they are going
against scholarly consensus (ijmaa’).
- 8 Rakat Taraweeh is the Sunnah of the PROPHET (SAWS) and he added 3 Rakat Witr, making a
total of 11 Rakat.
Let us listen to what Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Here we say that we should not go to extremes or be negligent. Some people go to extremes in
adhering to the number mentioned in the Sunnah, and say that it is not permissible to do more
than the number mentioned in the Sunnah, and they aggressively denounce those who do more
than that, saying that they are sinners.
This is undoubtedly wrong. How can they be sinners, when the Prophet SAWS (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him), upon being asked about night prayers, said that they are to be
done two by two, and he did not specify any particular number? Of course, the one who asked
him about the night prayer did not know the number, because if he did not know how to do it, it
is even more likely that he did not know the number. And he was not one of those who served
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) so that we might say that he knew what
happened inside his house. Since the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told
him how to do it but did not say how many times, it may be understood that the matter is broad
in scope, and that a person may pray one hundred rak’ahs then pray Witr with one rak’ah.
With regard to the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), “Pray as
you have seen me praying”, this does not apply in absolute terms even for these people. Hence,
they do not say that a person should pray Witr with five rak’ahs sometimes and with seven
rak’ahs sometimes and with nine rak’ahs sometimes. If we understand it in absolute terms, then
we would have to pray Witr with five rak’ahs sometimes and with seven rak’ahs sometimes and
with nine rak’ahs sometimes. But what is meant by the hadeeth is pray as you have seen me
praying with regard to how to pray not how many rak’ahs, unless there is a text to state what the
number is.
Whatever the case, a person should not be strict with people with regard to a matter that is
broad in scope. We have even seen some brothers who are strict on this matter accusing the
imams who pray more than eleven rak’ahs of following bid’ah, and they leave the mosque, thus
missing out on the reward of which the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) said: “Whoever stands with the imam until he finishes (the prayer), the reward of
qiyaam al-layl will be recorded for him.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 806; classed as saheeh by al-
Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi, 646). Some of them even sit down after completing ten rak’ahs,
thus breaking up the rows of worshippers by sitting there, and sometimes they start talking and
disturb the people who are praying.
We have no doubt that their intentions are good and they are doing their best to come to the
right conclusion, but that does not mean that they are correct.
The other group does the opposite. They sternly denounce those who pray only eleven rak’ahs
and say that they have gone against scholarly consensus. Allaah says (interpretation of the
meaning):
“And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad) after the right path has
been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers’ way, We shall keep him in the
path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell — what an evil destination!”
[al-Nisa’ 4:115]
All the generations who came before you only knew the number as twenty-three rak’ahs, and
they denounce anyone who says anything different.
Al-Sharh al-Mumti’, 4/73-75
- Taraweeh is one of the matters in Islam in which different opinions are acceptable. Taraweeh is
flexible. Ex. Imam Malik would do 36 Rakat
Ibn Qudaamah said: The favoured view according to Abu ‘Abd-Allaah (i.e., Imam Ahmad, may
Allaah have mercy on him), is that it is twenty rak’ahs. This was the view of al-Thawri, Abu
Hanfeefah and al-Shaafa’i. Maalik said it is thirty-six.
[Al-Mughni, (1/457)]
- There are Masjids that perform 20 Rakat and there are Masjids in which only 8 Rakat are
performed. Neither criticizes the other.
- In Darul Harb, they make a big issue about the number of Rakat; the people who do 20 accuse the
people who do 8 Rakat of being Lazy.
- This is not the correct opinion. The correct opinion is that Taraweeh is flexible and you cannot hold
it against any Muslim if he decides to pray less or more.
Narrated Abu Salama ibn Abdur Rahman that he asked Aisha (Allah be pleased with her), "How
was the prayer of Allah's Apostle (Peace be upon him) in Ramadan?" She replied, "He did not
pray more than eleven raka'at in Ramadan or in any other month. He used to pray four raka'at -
let alone their beauty and length - and then he would pray four - let alone their beauty and length
- and then he would pray three rak'aat (witr)." She added, "I asked, 'O Allah's Apostle! Do you
sleep before praying the witr?' He replied, 'O Aisha, My eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.'"
(Bukhari, 3/230)
- Therefore if you feel like praying 100 Rakat for your Taraweeh, you are allowed to do so and then
pray 1 Rakat of Witr.
- The Saudi Salafis beat the people over their heads, saying they cannot pray more than 11 RAKAT.
- They take the Hadith of the Messenger (SAWS) of "PRAY AS YOU SEE ME PRAY" out of context.
- We cannot understand it in absolute terms.
- The meaning of PRAY AS YOU SEE ME PRAY refers to the details of the prayer and not the number
of Rakat, because the Prophet (SAWS) prayed different number of Rakat of Taraweeh.
- There are people who leave the Masjid when they finish praying 8 or 11 Rakat. They end up
missing the reward of completing the Taraweeh with the Imam.
- These people leave the Salah and then sit down and start having conversations, disturbing the
people who are still praying.
- Only ignorant people make an issue about Taraweeh and use this issue as a means to divide the
community.
- The WICKED SCHOLARS use FIQH issues to divide the community to keep their grip on power and
solidify it.
These are the views of the four imams concerning the number of rak’ahs of Taraaweeh prayer. All
of them said something more than eleven rak’ahs. Perhaps the reasons why they said something
more than eleven rak’ahs include the following:
1- They thought that the hadeeth of ‘Aa’ishah did not mean that this was the specific number.
2- A greater number was narrated from many of the salaf.
See al-Mughni, 2/604; al-Majmoo’, 4/32
- Therefore the 1st Merit of Ramadan is to recite the whole Quran in it.
- Did you know that Shi'ites do not pray Taraweeh?
- Also it is impossible to find a Shiite who has memorized the Quran completely.
- Whereas the Sunnis prepare themselves for Taraweeh every day in Ramadan, and therefore have
millions of HAAFIZ of QURAN
- This is because Taraweeh is an encouragement for you to become a Haafiz to lead the people in
prayer
'Abdullah ibn 'Amr reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW), said: "The fast and the Qur'an
are two intercessors for the servant of Allah on the Day of Resurrection. The fast will say: 'O Lord,
I prevented him from his food and desires during the day. Let me intercede for him.' The Qur'an
will say: 'I prevented him from sleeping at night. Let me intercede for him.' And their intercession
will be accepted."
[Musnad Ahmad (2/174) No. 6626, Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/740) No. 2036, Shu'ab al-Eman al-
Bayhaqi (3/378) No. 1839]
- Did you know the Quran will intercede for you on the Day of Judgement?
- Did you kow the RAMDAN wil intercede for you on the Day of Judgment?
- Both the Quran and your Fasting in Ramadan will beg ALLAH to give your PARADISE
- Do not ask the question, how the Quran will speak when the Quran has no tongue.
- A STONE would give SALAAM to the PROPHET (SAWS). STONES DON’T HAVE TONGUES.
Jabir bin Samura (radi allahu 'anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam) as
saying, "I know the stone in Makkah which used to pay me Salutations before my advent as a
Prophet and I know that even now."
(Sahih Muslim, Kitab al-Fada'il, Hadith 5654).
- Only MUNAAFIQS ask such questions

- A true believer does not ask a question like this because he does not put a limit on the power of
ALLAH.
MERIT # 2
- RAMADAN KEEPS YOU IN TOUCH WITH ALLAH
- When you want ALLAH to speak to you, YOU READ THE QURAN
- When you want to speak to ALLAH, YOU RECITE YOUR SALAH
- Therefore you keep in touch with ALLAH during RAMADAN
An-Nadr bin Shaiban said: "I said to Abu Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahman: 'Tell me of something that
you heard from your father, that he heard from the Messenger of Allah, with no one in between
your father and Messenge of Allah concerning the month of Ramadan. He said: 'Yes; my father
said: The Messenger of Allah said:
Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, enjoined the fast of Ramadan upon you, and I have made it
Sunnah for you to spend its nights in prayer. Whoever fasts it and spends its nights in prayer out
of faith and in the hope of reward, he will emerge from his sins as on the day his mother bore
him."'
[Sunan al-Nasa'i (4/158) No. 2210, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/355) No. 1328, Musnad Ahmad (1/191)
No. 1660] (Daeef)
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith
and seeking reward, his previous sins will be forgiven."
MERIT # 3
- RAMADAN IS A MEANS BY WHICH YOU HAVE YOUR SINS FORGIVEN
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan out
of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his past sins will be
forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping
for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven."
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith
and seeking reward, his previous sins will be forgiven."
Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, ''There is not a servant
who fasts a day in the way of Allah, except that Allah removes his face from the Fire by the
distance of seventy years because of that.''
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “The five daily prayers, Friday prayer to
the following Friday prayer, and Ramadan to the following Ramadan are expiations for sins as
long as one abstains from major sins."
[Sahih Muslim (1/209) No. 233 and Musnad Ahmad (2/400) No. 9186]
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever establishes prayers during
the nights of Ramadan faithfully out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah's rewards (not for
showing off), all his past sins will be forgiven."
MERIT # 4
- RAMADAN IS A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO BECOME HEALTHY

ُ ‫ َو‬،‫ﺳﺎﻓ ُِﺮوا ﺗ َِﺼ ﱡﺤﻮا‬ ْ َ‫ﺗ‬
On the authority of Abu Huraira (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “Take part in
battles, and you will receive booty. Fast, and you will be healthy. Travel and you will find your
sustenance.”
[Al-Mu’jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani (8/174) No. 8312]
- We live in a time when obesity has become rife, and when you fast in Ramadan you reduce weight
and lighten your stomach.
On the authority of Abu Huraira (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Fast and you will
be healthy".
[Related by Abu Naeem in 'al-Tibbun al-Nabawee' (1/236) No. 113]
‫ﺗﺼﺤﻮا ﺻﻮﻣﻮا‬
- When you fast you start fighting against Obesity. Your stomach shrinks during Ramadan and
therefore you eat less and lose weight.
Mu’adh bin Rifa’ah narrated from his father, that he said: ‘Abu Bakr as-Siddiq stood on the pulpit
and wept and said, the Messenger of Allah (SAW) stood on the pulpit in the first year (of hijrah)
and wept and said: “Ask Allah for pardon and health, for none is given anything better than
health, after faith.”’
[Sunan al-Tirmidhi (5/557) No. 3558, Musnad Ahmad (1/7) No. 34]
Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “There are two blessings that of
which many people are careless: health and leisure.”
[Sahih Bukhari (8/88) No. 6412, Sunan al-Tirmidhi (4/550) No. 2304, Sunan Ibn Majah No. 4170,
Sunan al-Darime (2/385) No. 2707, Musnad Ahmad (1/344) No. 3207]

On seeing a fat man, the Holy Prophet (SAW) said: “If you did not have a paunch (big belly), it
would be better for you. He also said: Overeating does not go with good health.”
[Musnad Ahmad (4/339) No. 19005, al-Mu'jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (2/284) No. 2184, Majma al-

On the authority of Mujahid that Umar Ibn al-Khattab said: “O people! Beware of obesity caused
by food because it makes you lazy from Salah, it makes your body weak and unhealthy, and truly
Allah dislikes the obese man. Rather, you should observe modesty (and intent) with regards to
your provisions and food, as that is closer to piety, far from excessiveness and strengthens one in
worshipping Allah. And a slave will not fall into destruction until his desires become dearer to him
than his religion.”
[Al-Ju' Ibn Abi al-Dunya (pg. 72) No. 81 and al-Tibb al-Nabawi Abu Naeem (1/243-244) No. 127]
‫ ﻋﻦ‬،‫ ﺑﻦ ﻋﻤﺮ أن اﻟﺤﺴﻦ‬،‫ﻓﻘﺎل اﻟﺒﻄﻦ ﻋﻈﯿﻢ رﺟﻼ رأى ﻋﻨﮫ ﷲ رﺿﻲ اﻟﺨﻄﺎب‬: ‫ﻗﺎل ھﺬا؟ ﻣﺎ‬: ‫ ﻣﻦ ﺑﺮﻛﺔ‬،‫ﻗﺎل ﷲ‬: ‫ﻋﺬاب ﺑﻞ‬
On the authority of al-Hassan that Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) saw a man with a big belly and said,
“What is this?!” The man replied, “This is Barakah (a blessing) from Allah.” Umar said. “No, it is a
punishment from Allah!”
[Hadeeth Muhammad bin Abdullah al-Ansari (pg. 52) No. 42, Mu'jam al-Shuyookh al-Subki (pg.
531-532)]
- To have your health is the most important asset you can have. Even Haroun Al Rashid was willing
to give up his Caliphate and Power in return for good health.
Ibn Umar (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, “The believer eats in one intestine, while
the disbeliever eats in seven intestines.’
Miqdam ibn Ma’dikarib (RA) reported that he heard Allah’s Messenger say, “A man does not fill a
vessel worse than his belly. Enough for the son of Adam are a few morsels to keep his back
straight. But, if it is unavoidable then let him apportion one third for his food, one-third for his
drink and one-third for his breath.”
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/590) No. 2380, Sunan Ibn Majah (4/448) No. 3349, Musnad Ahmad (4/132) No.
17225]
- A Kaafir and a Munaafiq eat with 7 intestines because they worship their belly and their private
parts and are in love with the Dunya
MERIT # 5
- RAMADAN TEACHES YOU SABR (PATIENCE)
- This is because when you feel the pangs of hunger, you do not break your fast, not even one
minute before the time to break it.
On the authority of Abu Malik al-Harith bin al-Harith al-Asharee (RA) who said: The Messenger of
Allah (SAW) said, "Purity is half of iman (faith). ‘al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah)’ fills the
scales, and ‘subhan-Allah (how far is Allah from every imperfection) and ‘al-hamdulillah (praise
be to Allah)’ fill that which is between heaven and earth. And the salah (prayer) is a light, and
charity is a proof, and patience is illumination, and the Qur’an is a proof either for you or against
you. Every person starts his day as a vendor of his soul, either freeing it or causing its ruin."
- NOTE: THE QURAN IS A PROOF EITHER FOR YOU OR AGAISNT YOU.
And seek help in patience and As-Salāt (the prayer) and truly it is extremely heavy and hard
except for Al-Khāshi'ûn [i.e. the true believers in Allāh - those who obey Allāh with full
submission, fear much from His Punishment, and believe in His Promise (Paradise, etc.) and in His
Warnings (Hell, etc.)].
(Al-Baqarah 2:45)
Indeed he succeeds who purifies his ownself (i.e. obeys and performs all that Allāh ordered, by
following the true Faith of Islāmic Monotheism and by doing righteous good deeds).
(Ash-Shams 91:9)
- ALLAH is with the ones who hold on to PATIENCE

- Ramadan teaches you Sabr
MERIT # 6
- RAMADAN TEACHES YOU UNITY
The month of Ramadān in which was revealed the Qur'ān, a guidance for mankind and clear
proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights
(the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadān i.e. is present at his home), he must
observe Saum (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days
which one did not observe Saum (fasts)
(Al-Baqarah 2:185)
And obey Allāh and His Messenger, and do not dispute (with one another) lest you lose courage
and your strength depart, and be patient. Surely, Allāh is with those who are As-Sābirin (the
patient ones, etc.).
(Al-Anfal 8:46)
- Ramadan teaches you unity because you fast in the same month altogether with the rest of
MUSLIMS, all over the world
MERIT # 7
- RAMADAN ENHANCES THE ISLAMIC BROTHERHOOD AND THE ISLAMIC SISTERHOOD
- When you are fasting in Ramadan, you allow people to your house to break the fast together
It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say,
“Do not keep company with anyone but a believer and do not let anyone eat your food but one
who is pious.”
[Sunan Tirmidhi (4/600) No. 2395, Sunan Abu Dawood (4/259) No. 4832, Musnad Ahmad (3/38)
No. 11355]
- You are not allowed to invite Hypocrites who are not fasting to your house
- The Prophet (SAWS) said you should only allow righteous people to eat your food
- Do not have your wife slaving away in the kitchen, cooking food for people who are not even
fasting.
- If you use your hard-earned money to feed fasting people, you get the Barakah of their fast,
without them losing their fast
- Therefore by inviting Muslims to your home to eat your food and break their fast with you, you are
enhancing the ISLAMIC brotherhood and sisterhood
Zayd ibn Khalid Juhanni reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “If anyone gives to a person
who is fasting something with which to break his fast then for him is an equivalent reward
without the least being diminished from the reward of the fasting person”.
[Sunan Tirmidhi (3/171) No. 807, Musnad Ahmad (4/114) No. 17074, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/632) No.
1746]
MERIT # 8
- RAMADAN TEACHES YOU GOD CONSCIOUSNESS
- This is because when you feel the pangs of hunger you do not lock yourself up in a room and eat
secretly.
- You are aware that even though you can hide from the eyes of Men, you cannot hide from ALLAH
On the authority of Muadh bin Jabal (RA) who said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah, tell me of an
act which will take me into Paradise and will keep me away from the Hellfire." He (SAW) said,
"You have asked me about a great matter, yet it is easy for him for whom Allah makes it easy:
worship Allah, without associating any partners with Him; establish the prayer; pay the zakat ;
fast in Ramadhan; and make the pilgrimage to the House." Then he (SAW) said, "Shall I not guide
you towards the means of goodness? Fasting is a shield; charity wipes away sin as water
extinguishes fire; and the praying of a man in the depths of the night." Then he (SAW) recited:
"[Those] who forsake their beds, to invoke their Lord in fear and hope, and they spend (charity in
Allah’s cause) out of what We have bestowed on them.
No person knows what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do." [as-
Sajdah, 16-17] Then he (SAW) said, "Shall I not inform you of the head of the matter, its pillar and
its peak?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He (SAW) said, "The head of the matter is Islam, its
pillar is the prayer and its peak is jihad." Then he (SAW) said, "Shall I not tell you of the
foundation of all of that?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." So he took hold of his tongue and
said, "Restrain this." I said, "O Prophet of Allah, will we be taken to account for what we say with
it?" He (SAW) said, "May your mother be bereaved of you, O Muadh! Is there anything that
throws people into the Hellfire upon their faces — or: on their noses — except the harvests of
their tongues?"
[Sunan Tirmidhi (5/11) No. 2616, Sunan Ibn Majah (5/116) No. 3973, Musnad Ahmad (5/231) No.
22069]
- If a Muslim woman should catch her husband eating in Ramadan, she should divorce him with
FASKH (annulment) because he has no Taqwa
- This person is not marriage material, because if he is willing to cheat ALLAH he will be ready to
cheat on his wife
MERIT # 9
- RAMADAN SEPARATES THE BELIEVERS FROM THE MUNAAFIQEEN
(Al-Baqarah 2:183)
- When you fast in Ramadan you are saying: O ALLAH I read YOUR commandment in the QURAN
and here I am obeying it.
- THE BELIEVER HEARS AND OBEYS
- The Hypocrites do not fast in Ramadan
MERIT # 10
- RAMADAN TEACHES YOU ADAPTIBILITY AND FLEXIBILITY
- You learn to take your meals at different times of the day without a problem
- Now you do not eat at 8am, instead you eat until you hear the Azan for Fajr and rush to break your
fast when you hear the Azan for Maghrib
- The Fajr and Maghrib AZANS are very important in Ramadan
- You are not allowed to delay opening your fast.
- As soon as you hear the Muazzin say ALLAHUAKBAR ALLAHUAKBAR, you should rush to break your
fast.
Sahl ibn Sad reported that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, "The people will remain on the right
path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast."
MERIT # 11
- RAMADAN GIVES YOU A SENSE OF BELONGING
- You are fasting because you are part of the UMMAH of MUHAMMAD
- When Jews and Christians fast they do not receive any Barakah.
- If they want Barakah for fasting they must first take their SHAHADAH
And nothing prevents their contributions from being accepted from them except that they
disbelieved in Allāh and in His Messenger (Muhammad SAW); and that they came not to As-Salāt
(the prayer) except in a lazy state; and that they offer not contributions but unwillingly.
(At-Tawbah 9:54)
- The SHAHADAH has two parts. You must testify that there is no GOD but ALLAH, and you must
testify that MUHAMMAD (SAWS) is His Messenger
And We shall turn to whatever deeds they (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, etc.) did, and We
shall make such deeds as scattered floating particles of dust.
(Al-Furqan 25:23)
- The good deeds of mankind will only be accepted if they take their Shahadah
As for those who disbelieve, their deeds are like a mirage in a desert. The thirsty one thinks it to
be water, until he comes up to it, he finds it to be nothing, but he finds Allāh with him, Who will
pay him his due (Hell). And Allāh is Swift in taking account.
(An-Nur 24:39)
And indeed it has been revealed to you (O Muhammad SAW), as it was to those (Allāh's
Messengers) before you: "If you join others in worship with Allāh, (then) surely (all) your deeds
will be in vain, and you will certainly be among the losers."
(Az-Zumar 39:65)
- Ex. Mother Teresa will not have her deeds accepted because she worshipped three Gods.
MERIT # 12
- RAMADAN IS THE MONTH OF GLORY AND A MEANS OF GAINING VICTORY OVER THE KUFFAAR
- The Battle of Badr was on the 17th of Ramadan

- The Conquest of Makkah was on the 20th of Ramadan
- NATO uses the JINN to tell them where the Mujahideen are hiding. Therefore if the Shayaateen
are in CHAINS, they cannot help the KUFFAAR and the MUSLIMS gain many victories
- Spain was conquered in Ramadan 93 years after the Hijra
- The Battle of Hittin was in Ramadan 583 years after the Hijra. This is when Salahuddin Ayyubi
defeated the Crusaders
- This battle of Salahuddin was another turning point in History because he brought an end to the
Crusader rule in the Holy Land
- The Battle of Ain Jaloot was on the 25th of Ramadan in the year 658 AH
- The Muslims fought and defeated the Tartars in the Battle of Ain Jaloot.
- The people used to think the Tartars were invincible, but the Muslims defeated them and put an
end to their empire.
MERIT # 13
- RAMADAN MAKES YOU CHARITABLE BECAUSE YOU FEEL THE HUNGER FELT BY THE POOR
- There are many people who have never suffered hunger once in their lives and cannot understand
what poor people are going through
- Even if you are a millionaire you are deprived in Ramadan of food and drink and get a chance to
experience the pangs of hunger and become charitable
Anas narrated that: the Prophet was asked which fast was most virtuous after Ramadan? He said:
"Sha'ban in honor of Ramadan" He said: "Which charity is best?" He (SAW) said: "Charity in
Ramadan."
[Sunan Tirmidhi (3/42) No. 663] (Daeef)
MERIT # 14
- RAMADAN MAKES YOU SAVE YOUR MONEY BECAUSE YOU DRINK LESS AND EAT LESS
- If you are spending more in Ramadan there is something wrong.
MERIT # 15
- RAMADAN TEACHES YOU SELF RESTRAINT
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “There may be a fasting person
who gets nothing more from his fast than hunger and thirst, and there may be a person who
prays qiyaam and all he gets from his qiyaam is a sleepless night.”
[Musnad Ahmad (2/373) No. 8843, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/591) No. 1690, Sunan al-Darime (2/390)
No. 2720, Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah (3/242) No. 1997]
- You have to abandon wicked speech and actions and are not allowed to backbite and slander.
- You are not allowed to look at woman lustfully.
Ubaid, the freed slave of the Prophet (SAW), reported “Two women were once fasting during the
lifetime of Allah’s Messenger and they almost died of thirst. This was mentioned to the Prophet
(SAW) but he turned away from (allowing) them (to break the fast). Then they were mentioned to
him again, so he called for them and ordered them to vomit, i.e. throw up, what was in their
stomachs. So they both vomited and filled up a bowl with puss, blood and pieces of flesh. Then
the Prophet (SAW) said: ‘These two fasted by refraining from what Allah made lawful for them.
but they broke their fast by doing what Allah made unlawful for them. One of them sat with the
other and they began to eat from the flesh of people.’”
- You must avoid all kinds of harmful interactions, eating, drinking, viewing, speaking, hearing, doing
etc.
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever does not give up forged speech
and evil actions, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his
fasting.)
- When you fast your eyes are fasting, your hands are fasting, your feet are fasting, your tongue is
fasting and your private parts are fasting
- You can only sleep with your wife in Ramadan after Maghrib
(Al-Baqarah 2:183)
- If you cannot control your evil and corrupted desires you are beneath the level of the cattle
(Al-Furqan 25:44)
- The whole purpose of Ramadan is to teach you self-restraint so you can control your evil and
corrupted desires
- Today the AIDS virus has become pandemic because KAAFIRs are unable to control their evil and
corrupted desires.
- The hotspots for Aids all over the world are Kaafir countries.
>>>Top 10 Countries for Aids<<<<
1. Swaziland
2. Botswana
3. Lesotho
4. South Africa
5. Namibia
6. Zimbabwe
7. Zambia
8. Mozambique
9. Malawi
10. Kenya
- Most of the men in these countries are uncircumcised and it’s very easy for them to catch Aids.
The uncircumcised man is like a DOG.
- A Muslim woman is not allowed to marry a man who is not circumcised.
- This is Hanbali Fiqh.
MERIT # 16
- RAMADAN CONTAINS THE NIGHT OF POWER
- LAILAT Al QADR is better than a thousand months
Verily! We have sent it (this Qur'ān) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree)
(Al-Qadr 97:1)
And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?
(Al-Qadr 97:2)
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated the Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan out
of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his past sins will be
forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping
for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven."
Abu Huraira narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever establishes prayers during
the nights of Ramadan faithfully out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah's rewards (not for
showing off), all his past sins will be forgiven."
[Al-Bukhari (37) and Muslim (759)
The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allāh in that
night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e. 83 years and 4 months). (Al-Qadr
97:3)
- Therefore even though our life span is short compared to the previous generations, we will be able
to compete with them with regards to pious deeds, all because of Lailat al Qadr
- Lailat AL QADR, is a GIFT from ALLAH, exclusively to the UMMAH of MUHAMMAD (SAWS)
MERIT # 17
- UMRAH IN RAMADAN IS EQUAL TO HAJJ WITH THE PROPHET (SAWS)
“When the month of Ramadan arrives, go for ‘umrah, because 'umrah in Ramadan is like
accompanying me on Hajj.”
[Sahîh al-Bukhârî (1764)]
MERIT # 18
- FASTING IS A SHEILD AGAISNT THE TEMPTATION OF IBLIS
Abu Huraira (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Allah the Exalted and Majestic
said: 'Every act of the son of Adam is for him, except As-Siyam (the fasting) which is (exclusively)
for Me, and I will reward him for it.' Fasting is a shield. When anyone of you is observing fast, he
should neither indulge in obscene language nor should he raise his voice; and if anyone reviles
him or tries to quarrel with him, he should say: 'I am fasting.' By Him in Whose Hand the soul of
Muhammad is, the breath of one observing Saum is sweeter to Allah than the fragrance of musk.
The one who fasts, experiences two joys: he feels pleasure when he breaks the fast. He is joyful
by virtue of his fast when he meets his Rubb."
Abu Huraira (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Fasting is a shield (or a screen or a
shelter). So, the person observing fasting should avoid sexual relation with his wife and should
not behave foolishly and impudently, and if somebody fights with him or abuses him, he should
tell him twice, 'I am fasting." The Prophet added, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, the smell
coming out from the mouth of a fasting person is better in the sight of Allah than the smell of
musk. (Allah says about the fasting person), 'He has left his food, drink and desires for My sake.
The fast is for Me. So I will reward (the fasting person) for it and the reward of good deeds is
multiplied ten times.'"
[Sahih Bukhari (3/24-25) No. 1894]
MERIT # 19
- RAMADAN COMES AND PUTS ALL THE SHAYATEEN IN CHAINS
Narrated from Abu Hurayra (RA) that the Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said: “When Ramadan
comes, the gates of Paradise are opened, the gates of Hell are closed, and the devils are chained
up.”
MERIT # 20
- THERE IS A GATE IN PARADISE FOR THE FASTING PEOPLE CALLED RAYAAN
Sahl ibn Sa'd reported that the Prophet (SAW) said, "There is a gate in the Garden called ar-
Rayyan which those who fast will enter on the Day of Rising, and none but they will enter it." It
will be said, 'Where are the fasters?' They will stand up and none but they will enter it.
When they have entered it, it will be closed and no one else will enter it."
- There are 8 Gates in each of the 7 different Paradise
The eight doors of Jannah are as follows:
1) Baabus Salaah: Those who were punctual in observing their Salaah will be granted entry
through this door.
2) Baabul Jihad: Those who participated in Jihad will be granted entry through this door.
3) Baabus Sadaqah: Those who frequently gave Sadaqah will be admitted into Jannah through
this door.
4) Baabur Rayyaan: The people who constantly observed the fast will be granted entry through
this door.
5) Baabul Hajj: Those who observe the pilgrimage will be admitted through this door.
6) Baabul Kaazimeenal Ghaiz Wal ‘Aafina ‘Anin Naas: This door is reserved for those who
suppress their anger and pardon others.

reckoning and chastisement.
8) Baabuz Zikr: Those who excessively remembered Allah will be admitted through this door.
MERIT # 21
- RAMADAN IS OUR GUEST THAT COMES TO VISIT US ONCE A YEAR, EVERY YEAR, AND WE
SHOULD BE PREPARED TO RECEIVE IT
It was narrated that Abu Hurayra (RA) said: The Prophet (SAW) ascended the minbar and said:
Ameen.’ So I said Ameen.”

The Evil Effects of Sins

WHAT IS A SIN?
x A sin is an act of disobedience to Allah‫ﷻ‬.
x According to the Shariah, there are 5 impediments:
1. A child.
2. A madman.
3. Forgetfulness.
4. A mistake or ‘slip’ of the tongue.
5. Out of necessity or duress.
HADITH
Ali (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: "The pen has been raised for three persons (meaning
they are not held accountable for what they do): one who is sleeping until he gets up, a child until he
reaches the age of puberty, and an insane person until he becomes sane." [Musnad Ahmad (1/154) No.
1327, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/140) No. 4402, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/32) No. 1423, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/198)
No. 2041, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (5/265) No. 5596, Mustadrak al-Haakim (2/67) No. 2350]
ANOTHER HADITH
Ibn 'Abbas (RA) the Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: "Verily Allah‫ ﷻ‬has pardoned [or been lenient with] for
me my Ummah: their mistakes, their forgetfulness, and that which they have been forced to do under
duress." [Sunan Ibn Majah (3/200) No. 2045, al-Mu’jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (11/133) No. 11274, al-
Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (7/584) No. 15094, Sunan al-Daraqutni (5/300) No. 4351]
x A person can't make takfir on a Muslim based on an action out of duress.

x For example, the kuffar taking your children and having to go to the kaffir courthouse to
appeal.
x Another example, if someone went in your bank account and took all your wealth. You are
allowed to go to kaffir courthouse to get back what was taken.
x Your children and wealth are considered duress and part of your 6 Sacred Possessions.
x These examples are not Tahakum.
6 SACRED POSSESSIONS:
1. Your Wealth
2. Your life
3. Your Children
4. Your Lineage
5. Your Aql (Mind)
6. Your Deen (Religion)
x Any action done to protect these Sacred Possessions is considered duress.
x For example, if you are forced to say "Muhammad‫ ﷺ‬was a false Prophet " to save your life, you
didn't commit any wrong.
x A Sahaba by name of Ammar Ibn Yassir (RA) did the same thing during the time of the
Prophet‫ﷺ‬.
x Quraysh had killed both his parents and were about to kill him also.
x He left the fold of Islam with his tongue only to deceive them and save his life.
x Allah‫ ﷻ‬approved and agreed with his action.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah An-Nahl 16:106
ٌ ‫ﻋ َذ‬
‫اب ﻋَظِ ﯾ ٌم‬ َ ‫ﷲ َو َﻟ ُﮭ ْم‬
ِ َ‫َب ِّﻣن‬
ٌ ‫ﻏﺿ‬ َ ‫ﺎن َو ٰﻟَﻛِن ﱠﻣن ﺷ ََر َح ﺑِﺎ ْﻟ ُﻛ ْﻔ ِر‬
َ ‫ﺻد ًْرا ﻓَﻌَﻠَﯾ ِْﮭ ْم‬ ِ ْ ِ‫َﻣن َﻛﻔَ َر ﺑِﺎ ِ ﻣِ ن ﺑَ ْﻌ ِد إِﯾ َﻣﺎﻧِ ِﮫ ِإ ﱠﻻ َﻣ ْن أُﻛ ِْر َه َو َﻗ ْﻠﺑُﮫُ ُﻣ ْط َﻣﺋِنﱞ ﺑ‬
ِ ‫ﺎﻹﯾ َﻣ‬
Whoever disbelieved in Allah after his belief, except him who is forced thereto and whose heart is at
rest with Faith but such as open their breasts to disbelief, on them is wrath from Allah, and theirs will
be a great torment.
(An-Nahl 16:106)
EVERY SIN IS KUFR
There are 2 types of Kufr:

1. Major Kufr
2. Minor Kufr
The Khawarij (Puritans) went astray because they are jahil (ignorant) in regards to tawheed
(monotheism). They paint every kufr with the same brush and don't distinguish between minor and
major.
Some examples of minor Kufr:

x A man who drinks alcohol.
x A man who is married but has a girlfriend.
These actions are minor Kufr and doesn't take the person out of the fold of Islam. The only sin that
can eject a person outside the fold of Islam is if the sin is classified as major kufr or major shirk.
Sometimes a person may commit a major shirk, but we withhold making takfir on the person
because he is jahil on the basis of giving the excuse of ignorance.
An example of this ignorance, is when politicians come to people asking for their votes. In exchange
that he, when elected, will bring electricity, internet, fix the roads, etc. So the person who voted didn't
think about Tawheed Hakimeeyah, but rather only about the benefits he will supposedly receive. This
person should be excused and takfir shouldn't be made so quickly because he doesn't understand the
reality of democracy. Most Muslims are ignorant of this fact because the Muftis and Maulanas do not
preach this fundamental to the masses.
HADITH
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) reported that the Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: "Insulting a Muslim is going off the path
(fusuq) and killing him is disbelief (kufr)." [al-Bukhari (48) and Muslim (64)]
x The kufr in this hadith is minor kufr.

x A Sahaba named Abdullah(RA) was nicknamed ‘The Donkey’ because he was always
cracking jokes and making the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬laugh. He was flogged by the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬for drinking
alcohol. After he was flogged, the Sahaba cursed at him. The Prophet‫ ﷺ‬heard what was said to
him and ordered them not to curse at him because he loves Allah‫ ﷻ‬and His Messenger‫ﷺ‬.
HADITH
Narrated By 'Umar bin Al-Khattab(RA): During the lifetime of the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬there was a man called
'Abdullah(RA) whose nickname was Donkey, and he used to make Allah's Apostle‫ ﷺ‬laugh. The
Prophet‫ ﷺ‬lashed him because of drinking (alcohol). And one-day he was brought to the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬on
the same charge and was lashed. On that, a man among the people said, "O Allah‫ﷻ‬, curse him ! How
frequently he has been brought (to the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬on such a charge)!" The Prophet‫ ﷺ‬said, "Do not
curse him, for by Allah‫ﷻ‬, I know for he loves Allah‫ ﷻ‬and His Apostle‫ﷺ‬." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 81,
Hadith #771]
x This proves that alcohol is minor Kufr.

x Alcohol becomes major kufr when someone makes it halal (Istihlal).
x The same ruling is applied to Zina (fornication).
THE EVIL EFFECTS OF SINS
1. SINS DEPRIVES YOU OF ILM (KNOWLEDGE)
x Imam Shafi’i (RA) was walking and he saw the legs of a woman when the breeze blew her
dress. Then he began to forget the memorization of the Quran, even though he had a
photographic memory. Imam Shafi’i (RA) had a sheikh named Wak’ee and complained to him
about his situation. He advised him to give up sins.
x Imam Shafi’i (RA) was a doctor, poet and sheikh and explained his situation in 2 lines of
poetry:
‫وﻧﻮر ﷲ ﻻ ﯾﮭـﺪى ﻟﻌـﺎص‬..... ‫ﻓﺄرﺷﺪﻧﻲ إﻟﻰ ﺗﺮك اﻟﻤﻌﺎﺻﯿﻮأﺧـﺒﺮﻧﻲ ﺑﺄن اﻟﻌـﻠﻢ ﻧــﻮر‬..... ‫ﻧﻮر ﷲ ﻻ ﯾﮭﺪى ﻟﻌﺎﺻﺸﻜﻮت إﻟﻰ وﻛﯿﻊ ﺳﻮء ﺣﻔﻈﻲ‬
The light of Allah‫ ﷻ‬is not given to the disobedient: “I complained to Wakee’ of my poor memory.
Leaving sins is what he guided me to address. He informed me that knowledge is a light. And Allah’s‫ﷻ‬
light is not gifted to those who transgress.” [Diwan ash-Shafi'i]
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Baqarah 2:282
‫ﻋﻠِﯾ ٌم‬
َ ٍ‫ﺷ ْﻲء‬ َ ‫َواﺗﱠﻘُوا‬
َ ‫ﷲ َوﯾُﻌَ ِّﻠ ُﻣ ُﻛ ُم ﷲُ َوﷲُ ِﺑ ُﻛ ِّل‬
So be afraid of Allah; and Allah teaches you. And Allah is the All-Knower of each and everything. (Al-
Baqarah 2:282)
x Two characteristics cannot be combined in a hypocrite.
HADITH
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: “Two characteristics cannot combine in a
hypocrite: good character and an understanding of religion.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (5/49) No. 2684, al-
Thiqat Ibn Hibban (8/227) No. 13149, al-Mu’jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani (8/75) No. 8010, al-Madkhal ila
al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (pg. 256) No. 357]
2. SINS MAKES YOU BECOME POVERTY STRICKEN
x Sometimes you see a person who is poverty stricken and it's because they are very sinful.
x Sometimes you see an entire country where the people are poor, like Haiti.
x Their state religion is Voodoo (black magic).
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah An-Nisa 4:79
‫وﻻ َو َﻛﻔَ ٰﻰ ﺑِﺎ ِ ﺷ َِﮭﯾدًا‬

ً ‫ﺳ‬ َ ‫ﺳكَ َوأ َ ْر‬

Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And We
have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allah is Sufficient as a Witness.
(An-Nisa 4:79)
x Allah‫ ﷻ‬tested three Israeli's, a leper, a bald man and a blind man.
HADITH
Narrated By Abu Huraira(RA): that he heard Allah's Apostle‫ ﷺ‬saying: "Allah‫ ﷻ‬willed to test three
Israelis who were a Leper, a blind man and a bald-headed man. So, he sent them an angel who came to
the leper and said, 'What thing do you like most?' He replied, "Good color and good skin, for the
people have a strong aversion to me.' The angel touched him and his illness was cured, and he was
given a good color and beautiful skin. The angel asked him, 'What kind of property do you like best?'
He replied, 'Camels (or cows).' (The narrator is in doubt, for either the leper or the bald-headed man
demanded camels and the other demanded cows.) So he (i.e. the leper) was given a pregnant she-
camel, and the angel said (to him), 'May Allah‫ ﷻ‬bless you in it.' The angel then went to the bald-headed
man and said, 'What things do you like most?' He said, 'I like good hair and wish to be cured of this
disease, for the people feel repulsion for me.' The angel touched him and his illness was cured, and he
was given good hair. The angel asked (him), 'What kind of property do you like bests' He replied,
'Cows,' The angel gave him a pregnant cow and said, 'May Allah‫ ﷻ‬bless you in it.' The angel went to the
blind man and asked, 'What thing do you like best?' He said, '(I like) that Allah‫ ﷻ‬may restore my
eyesight to me so that I may see the people.' The angel touched his eyes and Allah‫ ﷻ‬gave him back his
eyesight. The angel asked him, "What kind of property do you like best?' He replied, 'Sheep.' The angel
gave him a pregnant sheep. Afterwards, all the three pregnant animals gave birth to young ones, and
multiplied and brought forth so much that one of the (three) men had a herd of camels filling a valley,
and one had a herd of cows filling a valley, and one had a flock of sheep filling a valley. Then the angel,
disguised in the shape and appearance of a leper, went to the leper and said, I am a poor man, who has
lost all means of livelihood while on a journey. So none will satisfy my need except Allah‫ ﷻ‬and then
you. In the Name of Him‫ ﷻ‬Who has given you such nice color and beautiful skin, and so much property,
I ask you to give me a camel so that I may reach my destination. The man replied, 'I have many
obligations (so I cannot give you).' The angel said, 'I think I know you; were you not a leper to whom
the people had a strong aversion? Weren't you a poor man, and then Allah‫ ﷻ‬gave you (all this
property).' He replied, '(This is all wrong), I got this property through inheritance from my
forefathers' The angel said, 'If you are telling a lie, then let Allah‫ ﷻ‬make you as you were before.' Then
the angel, disguised in the shape and appearance of a bald man, went to the bald man and said to him
the same as he told the first one, and he too answered the same as the first one did. The angel said, 'If
you are telling a lie, then let Allah‫ ﷻ‬make you as you were before.' The angel, disguised in the shape of
a blind man, went to the blind man and said, 'I am a poor man and a traveler, whose means of
livelihood have been exhausted while on a journey. I have nobody to help me except Allah‫ﷻ‬, and after
Him‫ﷻ‬, you yourself. I ask you in the Name of Him‫ ﷻ‬Who has given you back your eyesight to give me a
sheep, so that with its help, I may complete my journey' The man said, 'No doubt, I was blind and
Allah‫ ﷻ‬gave me back my eyesight; I was poor and Allah‫ ﷻ‬made me rich; so take anything you wish
from my property. By Allah‫ﷻ‬, I will not stop you for taking anything (you need) of my property which
you may take for Allah's‫ ﷻ‬sake.' The angel replied, 'Keep your property with you. You (i.e 3 men) have
been tested and Allah‫ ﷻ‬is pleased with you and is angry with your two companions." [Sahih Bukhari,
Vol.4, Book 56, Hadith #670]
x This Hadith is proof that sins causes you to be poverty stricken.
HADITH
It was narrated from Thawban(RA) that the Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: "Nothing increases one's
lifespan except righteousness and nothing repels the Divine decree except supplication, and a man
may be deprived of provision by a sin that he commits."' [Sunan Ibn Majah (5/152) No. 4022, Musnad
Ahmad (5/277) No. 22440, Mustadrak al-Haakim (1/670) No. 1814, Sahih Ibn Hibban (3/153) No.
872, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (10/380) No. 11775]
3. SINS ALIENATES YOU FROM ALLAH AND HIS RIGHTEOUS

SERVANTS
x If you drink alcohol, gamble or perform other sins, Allah‫ ﷻ‬dislikes you, the Angels dislike you
and the righteous people dislike you.
x No one wants to be in the company of an evil person.
4. SINS MAKES YOUR LIFE DIFFICULT
x The sinful person fails at things he tries in life.

x Nothing works for him.
x He is useless, hopeless and helpless.
x If a person has taqwa, Allah‫ ﷻ‬will find a way out (makhraj) for his circumstances.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah At-Talaq 65:2-3
‫ظ ِﺑ ِﮫ َﻣن ﻛَﺎنَ ﯾُؤْ ﻣِ نُ ِﺑﺎ ِ َوا ْﻟﯾ َْو ِم‬ َ ‫ﺷﮭَﺎ َدةَ ِ ﱠ ِ ٰذَ ِﻟ ُﻛ ْم ﯾُو‬

Then when they are about to fulfil their term appointed, either take them back in a good manner or
part with them in a good manner. And take for witness two just persons from among you (Muslims).
And establish the witness for Allah. That will be an admonition given to him who believes in Allah and
the Last Day. And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get
out (from every difficulty). (At-Talaq 65:2)

5. SINS TAKE AWAY YOUR FURQAN
x Furqan is the criterion to judge between the bad and good, right and wrong, pure and
impure.
x When you are sinful, you no longer see truth as truthful and false as falsehood.
x The Prophet‫ ﷺ‬used to make dua for protection against this regularly.
DUA
‫اﻟﻠﮭﻢ ارﻧﺎ اﻟﺤﻖ ﺣﻘﺎ ً وارزﻗﻨﺎ اﺗﺒﺎﻋﮫ وارﻧﺎ اﻟﺒﺎطﻞ ﺑﺎطﻼ وارزﻗﻨﺎ اﺟﺘﻨﺎﺑﮫ‬
Allahumma arinal haqqa haqqaw warzuqnat tiba’ah, wa arinal baatila baatilaw warzuqnaj tinaabah
O Allah‫ !ﷻ‬show us the truth as true, and inspire us to follow it. Show us falsehood as falsehood, and
inspire us to abstain from it.
x The reason why the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬used to make this dua because everyone is not blessed with
furqan.
x For example, many people do not see homosexuality as abnormal.
x If you were to ask people in Western countries about homosexuality, perhaps 60% of the
people think it's OK.
x That is why sins make you lose your furqan.
x You need taqwa to have furqan.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Anfal 8:29
َ ‫ﯾَﺎ أَﯾﱡﮭَﺎ اﻟﱠ ِذﯾنَ آ َﻣﻧُوا إِن ﺗَﺗﱠﻘُوا ﷲَ ﯾَﺟْ َﻌل ﱠﻟ ُﻛ ْم ﻓُ ْر َﻗﺎﻧًﺎ َوﯾُ َﻛﻔّ ِْر ﻋَﻧ ُﻛ ْم‬

‫ﺿ ِل ا ْﻟﻌَظِ ِﯾم‬
O you who believe! If you obey and fear Allah, He will grant you Furqan a criterion [(to judge between
right and wrong), or (Makhraj, i.e. making a way for you to get out from every difficulty)], and will
expiate for you your sins, and forgive you, and Allah is the Owner of the Great Bounty. (Al-Anfal 8:29)
HADITH
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said: "Whatever the Muslims see as good is good with Allah‫ﷻ‬, Whatever the Muslims
see as bad, Allah‫ ﷻ‬sees as bad." [Mustadrak al-Haakim (3/83) No. 4465, classed as Sahih by Adh-
Dhahabee]
x This Hadith is proof that we (Muslims) are witnesses for Allah‫ ﷻ‬on earth because we have the
furqan, not the Kuffar.
6. SINS MAKES YOUR IBAADA BECOME A BURDEN
x Salah (prayer) and Sadaqa (charity) is a burden on the hypocrite.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah At-Tawbah 9:54
َ ‫ﺳو ِﻟ ِﮫ َو َﻻ ﯾَﺄْﺗ ُونَ اﻟﺻ َﱠﻼةَ ِإ ﱠﻻ َو ُھ ْم ُﻛ‬

َ‫ﺳﺎﻟَ ٰﻰ َو َﻻ ﯾُﻧ ِﻔﻘُونَ ِإ ﱠﻻ َو ُھ ْم ﻛ َِﺎرھُون‬ ُ ‫َو َﻣﺎ َﻣﻧَ َﻌ ُﮭ ْم أَن ﺗ ُ ْﻘ َﺑ َل ﻣِ ْﻧ ُﮭ ْم ﻧَﻔَﻘَﺎﺗ ُ ُﮭ ْم ِإ ﱠﻻ أَﻧﱠ ُﮭ ْم َﻛﻔَ ُروا ِﺑﺎ ِ َو ِﺑ َر‬
And nothing prevents their contributions from being accepted from them except that they disbelieved
in Allah and in His Messenger (Muhammad SAW); and that they came not to As-Salat (the prayer)
except in a lazy state; and that they offer not contributions but unwillingly.
(At-Tawbah 9:54)
7. SINS BREED SINS
- An example of sins breeding sins is the story of Barsisa. He was a

monk who was entrusted with a girl to look after for three brothers.
- One sin led to another.
- Lust, Zina, murder, lies then finally shirk were the sins committed
by the monk.
8. SINS TAKE AWAY YOUR DESIRE TO REPENT
x Sins are addictive.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Mu’minun 23:99-100

‫ون‬
ِ ُ‫ار ِﺟﻌ‬ ْ ‫ب‬ِ ّ ‫َﺣﺗ ٰﱠﻰ إِذَا ﺟَﺎ َء أَ َﺣ َد ُھ ُم ا ْﻟ َﻣ ْوتُ ﻗَﺎ َل َر‬
Until, when death comes to one of them (those who join partners with Allah), he says: "My Lord! Send
me back.
(Al-Mu'minun 23:99)
ٌ ‫ﻟَﻌَﻠِّﻲ أَ ْﻋ َﻣ ُل ﺻَﺎ ِﻟ ًﺣﺎ ﻓِﯾ َﻣﺎ ﺗ َ َرﻛْتُ ﻛ ﱠَﻼ إِﻧﱠﮭَﺎ َﻛ ِﻠ َﻣﺔٌ ھ َُو َﻗﺎﺋِﻠُﮭَﺎ َوﻣِ ن َو َراﺋ ِِﮭم ﺑ َْر َز‬
َ‫خ إِﻟَ ٰﻰ ﯾ َْو ِم ﯾُ ْﺑﻌَﺛُون‬
"So that I may do good in that which I have left behind!" No! It is but a word that he speaks, and behind
them is Barzakh (a barrier) until the Day when they will be resurrected. (Al-Mu'minun 23:100)
x For example, George Best was a famous football player from Belfast, Ireland.
x He was addicted to alcohol and developed a bad liver.
x He received a new liver but still went back to drinking alcohol.
x The Quran is the greatest book on psychology but a person will not appreciate it until they are
taught it.
x This proves that sins are addictive.
9. SINS DESENSITIZE YOU AND MAKE YOU SEE IT AS NORMAL
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Mutaffifin 83:14
ِ ‫ﻋﻠَ ٰﻰ ﻗُﻠُوﺑِ ِﮭم ﱠﻣﺎ ﻛَﺎﻧُوا ﯾَ ْﻛ‬

َ‫ﺳﺑُون‬ َ َ‫ﻛ ﱠَﻼ ﺑَ ْل َران‬
Nay! But on their hearts is the Ran (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn.
(Al-Mutaffifin 83:14)
x For example, homosexuals believe they are Muslim and have established a gay temple in
South Africa.
x Their leader is named Mohsin Hendricks.
x They call their place of worship a masjid but that's an oxymoron. They think their lifestyle and
sin is normal.
x The sin has been desensitized.
FIQH AL-WAQ’I
Meet the imam of Africa’s first gay-friendly mosque:

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/05/gay-lgbt-mosque-imam-muhsin-hendricks/
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Jinn 72:18
‫ﷲ أَ َﺣدًا‬
ِ ‫ﺎﺟ َد ِ ﱠ ِ ﻓَ َﻼ ﺗ َ ْدﻋُوا َﻣ َﻊ‬
ِ ‫ﺳ‬َ ‫َوأَنﱠ ا ْﻟ َﻣ‬
And the mosques are for Allah (Alone), so invoke not anyone along with Allah. (Al-Jinn 72:18)
x Not only does the sin desensitize you, but also makes you hard-hearted.
x When was the last time you went to a masjid and heard a Khutbah and cried? Or heard a story
of a Sahaba and cried? Or cried from a Quranic recitation?
x Some hearts are so hard that they can’t give sadaqa.
10. SINS MAKE YOU BECOME NEGLIGENT OF ALLAH‫ﷻ‬, THE PROPHET‫ & ﷺ‬DEEN
x Some of you miss salatul Jumuah.

x When you miss Jumuah prayer 3 times in a row, a black spot is formed on your heart.
HADITH
Abu Al-Ja'd (meaning Ad-Damri(RA)) narrated, and he was a Companion according to the claim of
Muhammad bin Amr(RA): the Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: 'Whoever neglects the Friday prayer three
times (in a row) without an excuse, then Allah‫ ﷻ‬sets a seal upon his heart.'" [Sunan Tirmidhi (2/373)
No. 500, Musnad Ahmad (3/424) No. 15537, Sunan Abu Dawud (1/277) No. 1052, Sunan al-Nasa'i
(3/88) No. 1369, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/213) No. 1125, Sunan al-Darime (1/444) No. 1571, Muwatta
Malik (1/180) No. 468]
x Jumuah prayer is not mandatory on women, but it is for men.

x However, it is fardth (mandatory) for women to attend the Eid salah.
x Even menstruating women have to attend the Eid Salah during the time of the Prophet‫ﷺ‬.
x Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal(RA), Shafi’i(RA), and Malik(RA) say that Eid Salah is a sunnah,
however Abu Haneefa(RA) disagrees. Ibn Taymeeyah(RA) agrees with Abu Haneefa(RA).
x So it can’t be a sunnah because the Prophet‫ ﷺ‬ordered menstruating girls to come to the Eid,
but they can't perform the prayer.
x Eid Prayer shows the power of the Muslims.
x Don't stay at home and do not fast on Eid day. It's haram to fast that day.
x Only the munafiq fasts on Eid day.
FATWA
Ibn al-Qayyim (rh) said:

1 – Being deprived of knowledge for knowledge is light that Allah‫ ﷻ‬causes to reach the heart, and sin
extinguishes that light. When al-Shaafa’i (RA) sat before Maalik(RA) and read to him, he admired him
because of the intelligence, alertness and understanding that he saw in him. He said, “I think that
Allah‫ ﷻ‬has caused light to enter your heart, so do not extinguish it with the darkness of sin.”
2 – Being deprived of provision. In Musnad Ahmad it is narrated that Thawbaan said: “The Allah’s
Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: ‘A man is deprived of provision because of the sins that he commits.’”
(Narrated by Ibn Maajah, 4022).
3 – Sense of alienation that comes between a person and his Lord, and between him and other people.
One of the salaf (righteous predecessors) said: “If I disobey Allah‫ﷻ‬, I see that in the attitude of my
riding beast and my wife.”
4 – Things become difficult for him, so that he does not turn his attention towards any matter but he
finds the way blocked or he finds it difficult. By the same token, for the one who fears Allah‫ﷻ‬, things
are made easy for him.
5 – The sinner will find darkness in his heart, which he will feel just as he feels the darkness of night.
So this darkness affects his heart as the physical darkness affects his vision. For obedience is light and
disobedience is darkness. The stronger the darkness grows, the greater becomes his confusion, until
he falls into innovation, misguidance and other things that lead to doom, without even realizing, like a
blind man who goes out in the darkness of the night, walking alone. This darkness grows stronger
until it covers the eyes, then it grows stronger until it covers the face, which appears dark and is seen
by everyone. ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Abbas(RA) said: “Good deeds make the face light, give light to the heart,
and bring about ample provision, physical strength and love in people’s hearts. Bad deeds make the
face dark, give darkness to the heart, and bring about physical weakness, a lack of provision and
hatred in people’s hearts.”
6 – Deprivation of worship and obedience. If sin brought no punishment other than that it prevents a
person from doing an act of worship which is the opposite of sin, and cuts off access to other acts of
worship, that would be bad enough. So the sin cuts off a third way and a fourth way and so on, and
because of the sin he is cut off from many acts of worship, each of which would have been better for
him than this world and everything in it. So he is like a man who eats food that is bound to cause a
lengthy sickness, and thus he is deprived of many other foods that are better than that. And Allah‫ ﷻ‬is
the One Whose help we seek.
7 – Sin breeds sin until it dominates a person and he cannot escape from it.
8 – Sin weakens a person’s willpower. It gradually strengthens his will to commit sin and weakens his
will to repent until there is no will in his heart to repent at all… so he seeks forgiveness and expresses
repentance, but it is merely words on the lips, like the repentance of the liars, whose hearts are still
determined to commit sin and persist in it. This is one of the most serious diseases that are most
likely to lead to doom.
9 – He will become desensitized and will no longer find sin abhorrent, so it will become his habit, and
he will not be bothered if people see him committing the sin or talk about him. For the leaders of
immorality, this is the ultimate shamelessness in which they find great pleasure, such that they feel
proud of their sin and will speak of it to people who do not know that they have done it, saying, “O so
and so, I did such and such.” Such people cannot be helped and the path to repentance is blocked for
them in most cases. The Prophet‫ ﷺ‬said: “All of my ummah (followers) will be fine except for those who
commit sin openly, and that includes cases where Allah‫ ﷻ‬conceals a person’s sin, but the following
morning he exposes himself and says, ‘O So and so, I did such and such last night, so he shamelessly
exposes himself when all night his Lord had concealed his sin.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5949;
Muslim, 2744).
10 – When there are many sins they leave a mark on the heart of the person who commits them, so he
becomes one of the negligent. As one of the salaf said, concerning the aayah (verse)–“Nay! But on their
hearts is the Raan (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn” [al-Mutaffifeen 83:14 –
interpretation of the meaning] – this means sin after sin. How this starts is that the heart gets stained
by sin, and if the sin increases then the stain grows bigger until it becomes the raan (covering of sin
and evil deeds), then it increases until it becomes a seal, and the heart becomes covered and sealed. If
that happens after a person had been guided and had understood, then his heart is turned upside
down, and at that point the Shaytaan gains control over him and directs him as he wants. [Ibnul
Qayyim, al-Jawaab al-Kaafi (pg. 52-60)]
11. SINS IS A DEBT THAT YOU OWE
x What goes around comes around.

Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And We
have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allah is Sufficient as a Witness.
(An-Nisa 4:79)
FATWA
Stay chaste and your women will be chaste, and save yourself from that which is unfit for a Muslim.
Verily, adultery is a debt, if you have taken this debt, know that its payment will be taken from the
people of your household. One who commits adultery, in return adultery will be committed with him,
even though it will be committed against the wall of your house. O man! If you are wise then you
should know it (Diwan Ash-Shafi'i)
x Some Muslims say they don't believe that ‘what goes around comes around’ but this is a lie
because sins is a debt that you owe.
12. SINS CAUSE YOU TO LOSE BATTLES AGAINST YOUR ENEMIES
x When you are sinful, Allah‫ ﷻ‬will never help you in battles.
HADITH
When Umar bin al-Khattab (RA) dispatched the army of Saad bin Abi Waqqas (RA) to the Battle of al-
Qadisiyyah, he advised him: “Fear your sins more than you fear the enemy as your sins are more
dangerous to you than your enemy. We Muslims are only victorious over our enemy because their sins
outnumber ours, not for any other reason. If our sins were equal to those of our enemy, then they
would defeat us due to their superior numbers and resources.”
x Yassir Arafat fought to liberate the Palestinians but lost because he wasn't a real Muslim.
x Jamal Abdel-Nasser fought in the name of Arab socialism and Allah‫ ﷻ‬didn't give him victory
against the Israelis in 1967. Allah‫ ﷻ‬made it incumbent on Him to help the believers.
x This is one of the many promises of Allah‫ﷻ‬.

And never will Allah grant to the disbelievers a way (to triumph) over the believers.
(An-Nisa 4:141)
13. SINS DESTROY YOUR IZZAH (HONOR)

their careers with a scandal.
x They know that sins destroy your honor.

14. SINS TAKE AWAY YOUR MORAL AUTHORITY
x For example, a daughter knows her father is cheating on her mom. It will be hard for him to
make his daughter wear hijab.
x People even want imams to indulge in sins because they know it takes away their moral
authority.
15. SINS BREED NEW DISEASES IN THE SOCIETY
x There was no HIV or herpes diseases during the time of the Prophet‫ﷺ‬.
x HIV appeared in the 1980’s.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Ar-Rum 30:41

Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by [reason of] what the hands of people have
earned so He may let them taste part of [the consequence of] what they have done that perhaps they
will return [to righteousness].(Ar-Rum 30:41)
HADITH
It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin 'Umar(RA) said: "The Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬turned to us and said: 'O
Muhajirin, there are five things with which you will be tested, and I seek refuge with Allah‫ ﷻ‬lest you
live to see them: Immorality never appears among a people to such an extent that they commit it
openly, but plagues and diseases that were never known among the predecessors will spread among
them. They do not cheat in weights and measures but they will be stricken with famine, severe
calamity and the oppression of their rulers. They do not withhold the Zakah of the wealth, but rain
will be withheld from the sky, and were it not for the animals, no rain would fall on them. They do not
break the covenant with Allah‫ ﷻ‬and His Messenger‫ﷺ‬, but Allah‫ ﷻ‬will enable their enemies to
overpower them and take some of what is in their hands. Unless their leaders rule according to the
Book of Allah‫ ﷻ‬and seek all good from that which Allah‫ ﷻ‬has revealed, Allah‫ ﷻ‬will cause them to fight
one another.
[Sunan Ibn Majah (Arabic/English), Vol. 5, pg. 222-223, Hadith #4019]
16. LEADS TO MENTAL ILLNESS

17. SINS TURN YOU INTO A DAYOOTH
x A Dayooth is a man who is NOT jealous.

x This person doesn't care if his wife is cheating on him, or his daughter has a boyfriend or even
his son being gay.
x A Dayooth simply doesn't care.
HADITH
Narrated By Abu Huraira(RA): The Prophet‫ ﷺ‬said: “Indeed, Allah‫ ﷻ‬has Ghayrah, and the faithful
believer has Ghayrah, and the Ghayrah which Allah‫ ﷻ‬has is provoked when a believer commits that

ANOTHER HADITH

paradise and Allah‫ ﷻ‬will not look to them on the Day of Judgment: the one who is disobedient to his
parents, the woman who imitates men and the ad-Dayooth (cuckold, weak man who feels no jealousy
over his womenfolk)..." [Musnad Ahmad (2/134) No. 6180, Musnad al-Bazzar (12/270) No. 6051, al-
Sunnan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (2/63) No. 2354, al-Mu’jam al-Awsat al-Tabarani (3/51) No. 2443]
x A Dayooth is one of three people that Allah‫ ﷻ‬will not look at on the Day of Judgement.
18. SINS CAUSE NATURAL DISASTERS
x For example, the people of Noah (AS) were destroyed by the flood because they were the
first to commit shirk.
x The people of Salah (AS) killed the she-camel and were struck down by Allah‫ﷻ‬.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Ash-Shams 91:14

‫ﺳ ﱠوا َھﺎ‬ َ ‫ﻓَ َﻛذﱠﺑُوهُ ﻓَﻌَﻘَ ُرو َھﺎ َﻓد َْﻣ َد َم‬
Then they denied him and they killed it. So their Lord destroyed them because of their sin, and made
them equal in destruction (i.e. all grades of people, rich and poor, strong and weak, etc.)! (Ash-Shams
91:14)
x The people of Shuaib (AS) were destroyed because they used to cheat with the scales. were
also sinful
x The people of Lut (AS) were destroyed because they dabbled in homosexuality, loud farting,
highway robbery and cock fighting.
x When you leave a sinful city, you cannot look back.
x Natural disasters even occur in our times.
x For example, look a New Orleans. It's called the ‘Big Easy’. Also, it's the capital for black magic
in the USA. Allah‫ ﷻ‬destroyed the city with hurricane Katrina in 2005.
x Even after Allah‫ ﷻ‬destroyed the city, they still held the gay march called ‘The Mardi Gras’.
HADITH
Narrated Ibn Namir (RA) from Abdullah (RA) from Naafi‘(RA) from Safiyyah (RA) who said: The earth
shook at the time of ‘Umar (RA), and he addressed the people and said: “If it happens again, I shall
definitely abandon you and leave.” [Ibn Abi Shaybah in al-Musannaf (Vol.2, pg.221) No. 8335 and ibn
al-Jawzi in Al-Muntazam fi Tarikh al-Muluk wal-Umam (Vol.4, pg.295)]
QUESTION
Have you ever seen a natural disaster in Mecca or Medina?
The answer is NO.
x A man asked Aisha (RA) about earthquakes.
HADITH
Anas (RA) says: “I went into the presence of Aishah (RA) whilst someone else was seated with her. The
person asked, ‘O Mother of the believers, relate to us regarding earthquakes (as to their cause)’ She
turned her face away. I (Anas) asked her, ‘Relate to us regarding earthquakes, O Mother of the
believers!’ She said, “O Anas, if I were to inform you thereof, you will live a sorrowful life and you will
die in this state of grief and you will be raised on the Day of Judgement whilst this fear is in your
heart.” I said, “O Mother, relate to me.” She then said, “When a woman removes her clothes in a house
other than her husbands (an indication towards adultery), she tears the veil between her and Allah‫ﷻ‬.
When she applies perfume to please a male other than her husband, this will be a source of fire and a
blemish for her. When the people then begin to commit adultery, consume alcohol and use musical
instruments, Allah‫ ﷻ‬becomes enraged above the heavens and orders the Earth to shake them. If they
repent and refrain, then it is good for them, otherwise Allah‫ ﷻ‬will cause it to fall upon them.” I asked,
“Is this their punishment?” She said, “It is rather a mercy, means of blessings and admonishment for
the believers, and a punishment, display of anger and torment for the unbelievers.” [Mustadrak al-

19. SINS CAUSE HATRED, ENMITY, MALICE, BLOODSHED, MURDER, WARS & RUMORS OF WARS
x For example, if you go to a Muslim country and commit zina with a girl, you will get killed.
Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Furqan 25:68
‫س ا ﱠﻟﺗِﻲ ﺣ ﱠَر َم ﷲُ ِإ ﱠﻻ ِﺑﺎ ْﻟﺣَﻖّ ِ َو َﻻ ﯾ َْزﻧُونَ َو َﻣن ﯾَ ْﻔ َﻌ ْل ٰ َذ ِﻟكَ ﯾَ ْﻠﻖَ أَﺛَﺎ ًﻣﺎ‬ ٰ ِ ‫ﻋونَ ﻣ َﻊ‬

forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall
receive the punishment.
(Al-Furqan 25:68)
x This ayah shows that murder and Zina goes hand in hand.
20. SINS TAKE AWAY THE NOOR FROM YOUR FACE
x Sometimes you look in the face of a person and can see the evil in his face.
HADITH
Anas ibn Malik (RA) said: I entered the company of Uthman ibn Affaan (RA) while I was thinking about
the beauty of a woman I saw in the street. Uthman (RA) then said: One of you enter my presence and
the remnants of zinaa can be seen in his eyes. I then said: Did revelation come down after the
departure of the Rasool‫ ?ﷺ‬Uthman (RA) said: But this is the deep insight, foresight and intuition of the
believer. [Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah, Madaarij as-Saalikeen (Vol. 2, pg. 455)]
x Firasa (intuition) is a gift.

x It is the ability to look in the face of a man and tell that he is a sinful person like a con artist or
fornicator.
x Firasa is better than furqan.
x With furqan, you would hear the man speak to tell if he's sinful. However, with firasa, the
person doesn't have to say a single word but rather can tell from his face.
HADITH
Abu Sa’eed Khudri (RA) reported that Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: ‘Guard yourself against a Believer’s
insight, for, he sees with the light of Allah‫ﷻ‬.” He then recited: Surely in that are signs for the sagacious.
(15:75) [Sunan Tirmidhi (Vol. 5, pg. 298) No. 3127]
21. SINS CAUSE YOU TO HAVE WAHN IN YOUR HEART
HADITH
On the authority of Thawban (RA) the Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: “All the people of the world will soon
summon one another to attack you as people gather around a table when invited to partake of its
meal” Someone asked, ‘will that be because of our small numbers at that time?’ He (the Prophet‫)ﷺ‬
replied: “No, you will be numerous at that time but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried
down by a torrent, and Allah‫ﷻ‬will take fear from the breast of your enemies and cast “wahn” into your
hearts”. Someone asked ‘What is “wahn” O Allah’s Messenger‫ ’?ﷺ‬He replied “Love for the world and
dislike of death.” [Sunan Abu Dawud (4/111) No. 4297, Musnad Ahmad (2/359) No. 8698]
ANOTHER HADITH
On the authority of al-Hassan (RA) that Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) saw a man with a big belly and said:
“What is this?!” The man replied, “This is Barakah (a blessing) from Allah‫ﷻ‬.” Umar (RA) said. “No, it is
a punishment from Allah‫[ ”!ﷻ‬Hadeeth Muhammad bin Abdullah al-Ansari (pg. 52) No. 42, Mu'jam al-
Shuyookh al-Subki (pg. 531-532)]
x A man in England was arrested because he had the Prada Willi Syndrome.
x This syndrome is where you don't know when to stop eating.
HADITH
On seeing a fat man, the Holy Prophet‫ ﷺ‬said: “If you did not have a paunch (big belly), it would be
better for you. He also said: Overeating does not go with good health.” [Musnad Ahmad (4/339) No.
19005, al-Mu'jam al-Kabir al-Tabarani (2/284) No. 2184, Majma al-Zawaid al-Haythami (5/35) No.

22. SINS CAUSE YOUR DUAS TO BE REJECTED
HADITH
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (RA) who said: The Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬said: "Allah‫ ﷻ‬is Good and
accepts only that which is good. And verily Allah‫ ﷻ‬has commanded the believers to do that which He
has commanded the Messengers. So the Almighty‫ ﷻ‬has said: "O (you) Messengers! Eat of the tayyibat
[all kinds of halal (legal) foods], and perform righteous deeds." [23:51] and the Almighty‫ ﷻ‬has said: "O
you who believe! Eat of the lawful things that We have provided you." [2:172]" Then he‫ ﷺ‬mentioned
[the case] of a man who, having journeyed far, is dishevelled and dusty, and who spreads out his
hands to the sky saying "O Lord! O Lord!," while his food is haram (unlawful), his drink is haram, his
clothing is haram, and he has been nourished with haram, so how can [his supplication] be answered?
Narrated by Muslim.
23. SINS AFFECT YOUR AL WALAA WAL BARAA
x When a person is sinful, he is uncomfortable when he’s around a Muslim.

x Rather that person is more comfortable when he is with the kuffar. And sometimes he acts
worse than the kuffar.

Allah‫ ﷻ‬said in Surah Al-Mujadilah 58:22

For such He has written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with Ruh (proofs, light and true

HADITH
On the authority of 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (RA), who said: The Allah’s Messenger‫ ﷺ‬narrated to us: By
Allah‫ﷻ‬, other than whom there is no god, verily one of you behaves like the people of Paradise until
there is but an arm's length between him and it, and that which is written overtakes him and so he
behaves like the people of the Hell-fire and thus he enters it; and one of you behaves like the people of
Hell-fire until there is but an arm's length between him and it, and that which has been written
overtakes him and so he behaves like the people of Paradise and thus he enters it. [al-Bukhari (6594)
and Muslim (2643)]
ANOTHER HADITH
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: Allah’s Messenger said: "Do you know who the bankrupt is?" They said:
"The bankrupt among us is one who has neither money with him nor any property." He said, "The real
bankrupt of my Ummah would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrection with Salat, Saum
and Sadaqah (charity), (but he will find himself bankrupt on that day as he will have exhausted the
good deeds) because he reviled others, brought calumny against others, unlawfully devoured the
wealth of others, shed the blood of others and beat others; so his good deedswould be credited to the
account of those (who suffered at his hand). If his good deeds fall short to clear the account, their sins
would be entered in his account and he would be thrown in the (Hell) Fire." [Sahih Muslim (4/1997)
No. 2581]

Click Link Below To View/Download Audio 'Download Audio'

WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A TAKFIRI?

There is nothing wrong with being a Takfiri

What is wrong is being a khawarij

A khawarij is a person who makes takfir on Muslims wrongfully

This principle is called chain takfir

THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKFIR

REASON # 1 - YOU CANNOT MARRY YOUR MUSLIM DAUGHTERS TO INFIDELS

REASON # 2 - KAAFIRS CANNOT ENTER THE SACRED SANCTUARIES OF MAKKAH AND

In this regard, Allah said:

REASON # 4 - KAAFIRS CANNOT INHERIT PROPERTY FROM MUSLIMS

REASON #5 - A MUSLIM CANNOT BE KILLED FOR A KAAFIR

If a kaafir is killed by a Muslim, a Muslim is only supposed to pay blood money

REASON # 6 - WE NEED TO PRACTICE AL WALA WAL BARA

REASON # 7: WE NEED TO TOPPLE THE LEADER IF WE SEE CLEAR KUFR

REASON # 8: DURING A JIHAD, WE NEED TO KNOW WHO TO KILL

REASON # 9 - WE CANNOT PRAY OVER DEAD KUFFAR

REASON #10 - WE CANNOT BURY KUFFAR IN OUR GRAVEYARDS

The kuffar have to be buried with the Christians or other kuffar.

Muslim cannot be buried in the graveyard of the kuffar

Examples of Allah making takfir:

EXAMPLE # 1 - ALLAH MAKING TAKFIR ON THE GRAVE WORSHIPPERS OR TE PEOPLE WHO

This means all grave worshippers are liars and kaafirs

EXAMPLE # 2 - ALLAH SWT MAKING TAKFIR ON THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK

Ibn Taymiyyah making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:

Ibn Katheer making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:

‘Allama al-Shinqiti making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:

Uthaymeen making takfir on those who dislodge the Shariah:

EXMAPLE # 6 - ALLAH SWT MAKES TAKFIR ON PEOPLE WHO MOCK ISLAM

Nobody is allowed to make fun of an aspect of Islam

The Jews are kaaffir because they hate Jibreel A.S

Hating Jibreel is equivalent to hating Allah

Allah is the source of the Quran so hating Jibreel is hating Allah

They think that their opinion is better than Hadith

EXAMPLE # 13 - SCHOLARS OF ISLAM MAKE TAKFIR ON THOSE WHO INSULT MUHAMMAD

QUESTION & ANSWER

Q: Shaikh, Yusufdeen what Manhaj is he on because he was promoting Homosexuality, he also

He gives his own false tafseer of the Quran

He is self-taught and is not qualified to give tafseer

He is on the failed mission of destroying islam from within

He is the worst kaafir on paltalk at the moment

The following statements are examples of their kufr ideology:

Q: assalamualaikum shaikh.. on a previous lecture "importance of salah" i heard u mention ali ra

You cannot find kufr in his books

THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKFEER

APRIL 13 2014 / 13 JUMADA AL AKHIRAH 1435 HIJRI

BY SHAIKH ABDULLAH AL FAISAL

NOTES TAKEN BY @AT15

HADITH HUJJAH @AT3

QURAN HUJJAH @AT19

EDITED & FORMATTED BY @TI-Nspire & Abu Hafiza

So whenever you call someone infidel, it is known as takfeer.

There is a misconception that only a scholar may make takfeer.

Is it fair to say only a scholar can make takfeer on such person?

You do not need a scholar to make takfeer.

Such people make takfeer on themselves with their zandaqa (heresy).

(Aali Imran 3:102)
