[1] A Reminder to Misguided Shadeed Muhammad and his companions amongst the corrupters!

Written by Jallow Abdullah on . Posted in Deviated Callers & Individuals, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Scholars of Islam.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Ustaadh Uwais At-Taweel (may Allaah preserve him) delivered an excellent rebutted against Shadeed Muhammad for his devilish insinuations against the ulama; so we remind Shadeed and his misguided party as follows…..The Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said: ”The Ulama are the inheritors of the Prophets.”

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:

This is from the greatest virtues of the people of knowledge; for indeed the Prophets are the best amongst Allaah’s creation, therefore their inheritors are the best amongst the creation. And when it is the case that every giver of inheritance is to pass inheritance to his inheritor, then the scholars are the ones who take up the responsibility of the Prophets after their departure. There is none to take up the responsibility of the Prophets in propagating that which the Prophets were sent with except the scholars. They are the most worthy amongst the people to receive this inheritance from the Prophets.

In this is a notification that the scholars are the closest to the Prophets amongst the people, for indeed inheritance is received by the person who is closest to the one who gives it. And just as this is established in worldly inheritance and inheritance of Daraahim (i.e. money), likewise it is the case with regards to inheritance of the (knowledge and responsibility left behind by the) Prophets. And Allaah chooses for His Mercy whom He wills….[1]

 

Imam Sadi (rahimahullaa) stated:

They [i.e. (the upright) scholars and teachers] are the mediators between the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and his Ummah with regards to propagation of his religion and clarification of his sharee-ah. Had it not been for these ones, the people would have been like cattle. Their rights are greater than the rights of the fathers and the mothers; for indeed they nurture the souls and hearts of the slaves upon the beneficial sciences and sound knowledge. They are the ones who guide the Ummah in the fundamental and subsidiary affairs of their Religion. They return them to the rulings pertaining to the rights and dealings that are incumbent upon a person to fulfil, just as they return them to the affairs pertaining to affairs of worship. Through them the Book and the Sunnah are established; truth is made clear truth from falsehood, guidance as opposed to misguidance, the lawful as opposed to the unlawful, good as opposed to evil, and rectification as opposed to corruption.  They are of varying ranks, in accordance with what they establish of knowledge, teaching and benefit- great or small. They have great rights (to be fulfilled) by the Ummah and are in possession of a sublime status.

Therefore, the people must have love and respect for them. They must recognize their excellence and virtue, and thank them greatly.  They are to supplicate for them in private and public, and seek nearness to Allaah by having love for them and praising them.  They are to proclaim their excellence, and guard the hearts and the tongues against insulting them, which when present would tarnish their excellence.

So may Allaah guide Shadeed Muhammad or humiliate him. Aameen

[4] Conclusion: A Description of the One Who Abandoned Knowledge of the Book and Preferred the Dunya over the Aakhirah [Summarized Benefits from Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah)]

Written by Jallow Abdullah on . Posted in Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Deviated Callers & Individuals.

This is a description of an evil scholar who acts in opposition to knowledge he possesses. So ponder upon what this ayah necessitates of rebuke against him (i.e. the person mentioned in Soorah Al-Araaf. Aayaat 175-176) from different angles:

(a) He went astray after having knowledge. He chose disbelief over Imaan- intentionally and not out of ignorance.

(b) He departed from Imaan in a manner that did not allow him to ever return to it again; for indeed he threw away the Aayaat of Allaah completely just as a snake exits its skin. Had he been left with anything (of Imaan), he would not have been (considered) as one who exited from it completely.

(c) Shaytaan approached and caught up with him to the extent that he overwhelmed and caught him as his prey.

(d) He [غوى-strayed] after being upon a state of [الرشد-the right course- well guided in affairs of the religion]. The word [الغي] means to be misguided in knowledge and intention, and it is more specified to corruption in knowledge and action, just as the word [الضلال] is more specified to corruption in knowledge and creed. When one of the two words is mentioned on its own, it includes the meaning of the other; but if mentioned together, then each of them takes it’s more specific meaning as mentioned above.

(e) Allaah did not wish to raise him by way of knowledge and that was the cause of his destruction. And because he was not raised by way of knowledge (due to his own deliberate deviation), it became a source of anxiety for him. It would have been better for him not to be a scholar and would have lessened the punishment he will receive.

(f) Allaah informed (us) of the vileness of this person’s goal; he chose the lowest of despicable affairs over the noblest of lofty affairs.

(g) His choice of the lowest of affairs was not due to thoughts that crossed his mind and ideas he was unconscious of; rather it was due to [إخلاد إلى الأرض   clinging to the earth–turning towards his desires constantly. Az-Zujaaj said: The root of the words [خلد and أخلد] is [خلود], and it means to be constant in something and to remain upon something.

(h) He (deliberately) turn away from guidance and followed his vain desires. He made his vain desires a guide by way of which he would be guided and he followed it.

We ask Allaah to guide us in our actions, creed and intentions.  And we ask Allaah to attach us to the upright scholars–those who act upon the knowledge they possess.  Aameen

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Allaah [The Most High] said:

وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ ٱلَّذِىٓ ءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتِنَا فَٱنسَلَخَ مِنۡهَا فَأَتۡبَعَهُ ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَاوِينَ

وَلَوۡ شِئۡنَا لَرَفَعۡنَـٰهُ بِہَا وَلَـٰكِنَّهُ ۥۤ أَخۡلَدَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَٮٰهُ‌ۚ فَمَثَلُهُ ۥ كَمَثَلِ ٱلۡڪَلۡبِ إِن تَحۡمِلۡ عَلَيۡهِ يَلۡهَثۡ أَوۡ تَتۡرُڪۡهُ يَلۡهَث‌ۚ ذَّٲلِكَ مَثَلُ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا‌ۚ فَٱقۡصُصِ ٱلۡقَصَصَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

 And recite (O Muhammad ) to them the story of him to whom We gave Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), but he threw them away, so Shaitan (Satan) followed him up, and he became of those who went astray.

And had We willed, We would surely have elevated him therewith but he clung to the earth and followed his own vain desire. So his description is the description of a dog: if you drive him away, he lolls his tongue out, or if you leave him alone, he (still) lolls his tongue out. Such is the description of the people who reject Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.). So relate the stories, perhaps they may reflect.

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim [rahimahullaah] said: Contemplate on the affairs of wisdom and (significant) meanings found in this parable:

From them is the statement of Allaah: [ءَاتَيۡنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتِنَا- To whom We gave Our Aayaat(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)] Allaah informed (us) that He was the One Who gave this person knowledge of His Aayaat, for indeed it is blessing and Allaah is the One Who conferred it upon him. So Allaah attributed the source of this conferment to Himself. Then Allaah said: [فَٱنسَلَخَ مِنۡهَا- But he threw them away]; meaning: He left it in a manner similar to the manner in which a snake leaves its skin. And Allaah did not say, “We threw him away from it” because this person was the one who left it by way of following his desires.

And from those affairs of wisdom and (significant) meanings found in this parable is the statement of Allaah: [فَأَتۡبَعَهُ ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ- So shaytaan(satan) followed him up]; meaning: shaytaan approached and pursued him, just as Allaah stated about Pharaoh’s people: [فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ- So they pursued them at sunrise (26: 60)].

He (i.e. this person to whom Allaah gave knowledge of the Book) used to be protected and guarded against shaytaan through the Aayaat of Allaah; but when he threw away the Aayaat of Allaah, shaytaan overwhelmed him just as a lion overwhelms its prey;

[فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَاوِينَ- And he became of those who went astray]-those who act in opposition to the knowledge they possess and those who know the truth but act in opposition to it, just like the evil scholars.

And from those affairs of wisdom and (significant) meanings found in this parable is the statement of Allaah: [وَلَوۡ شِئۡنَا لَرَفَعۡنَـٰهُ بِہَا- And had We willed, We would surely have elevated him therewith]; Therefore, Allaah informed (us) that being elevated in His presence is not merely acquired through knowledge, for indeed this person was from the scholars; rather elevation is acquired through adherence to the truth, giving precedence to it and aiming to please Allaah. Indeed, this person was among the most knowledgeable during his era, but he was neither elevated through his knowledge nor did he benefit from it. We seek Allaah’s protection from knowledge that does not benefit.

So Allaah informs (us) that He is the One Who will raise His slave-if He wills-with what He has bestowed upon him of knowledge, and if He does not raise the slave, then he is lowered; for indeed The Lord –[The One Who lowers and raises]-lowered him and did not raise him. This means: ‘’Had we willed, We would have preferred him, ennobled him, raised his status and rank by way of the Aayaat we gave him. Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) said: Had Allaah willed, He would have raised this person through the knowledge he (i.e. this person) possessed. [وَلَـٰكِنَّهُ ۥۤ أَخۡلَدَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ-But he clung to the earth]. Muqaatil (rahimahullaah) said: ‘’He became pleased with the Dunya.’’

[وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَٮٰهُ‌ۚ- And followed his own vain desire]. Al-Kalbee (rahimahullaah) said: He pursued the lowly affairs and abandoned the lofty affairs. Abu Rawqa (rahimahullaah) said: ‘’He chose the Dunyah over the Aakhirah.’’ Ataa (rahimahullaah said: ‘’He wanted the Dunya and obeyed his shaytaan.’’  Ibn Zayd (rahimahullaah said: ‘’He followed his desires by joining those who fought Musa (alayhis salaam) and his people.’’

[2] A Description of the One Who Abandoned Knowledge of the Book and Preferred the Dunya over the Aakhirah

Written by Jallow Abdullah on . Posted in Brotherhood, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Purification of The Soul, Scholars of Islam.

Ibn Jurayj (rahimahullaah) said:

A dog’s heart is disconnected (i.e. inattentive) and it is (as if) it does not have a heart. It lolls it’s tongue out whether driven away or left alone. This is similar to the one who abandoned guidance; for it is (as if) he does not have a heart (to make him attentive); rather his heart is disconnected. The intent behind Ibn Jurayj’s statement that the dog’s heart is disconnected (i.e. inattentive) is that it does not possess (that type of) heart to enable it to exercise patience and abandon lolling its tongue out. This is also the case regarding the one who abandons the Aayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc) of Allaah. He is not left with a heart that will enable him to exercise patience with the worldly (goods) and to abandon exerting himself for them. So this person exerts himself for the sake of the worldly (goods) due to the little patience he possesses and the dog lolls its tongue out due to the little patience it possesses when in need of water.

A dog is among those animals with the least patience when thirsty and in need of water. It eats the moist earth out of thirst, even though it does have some patience when in need of food. Nevertheless, among all animals it lolls its tongue out the most, whether it is standing, sitting, moving or not moving. The intense desire inside it necessitates that it will always loll it’s tongue. Likewise, this is the affair of that person likened to the dog; the extreme eagerness and burning desire in his heart necessitates that he will always exert himself (for the worldly goods at the expense of the Aakhirah). He still exerts himself whether he is admonished and advised, and he still exerts himself when not admonished.

Mujaahid (rahimahullaah) said:

This is similar to the one given knowledge of the Book, but he does not act upon it. Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) said: If you direct him towards wisdom, he does not carry it, and if you leave him alone he is not guided towards good, just like the dog that lolls it’s tongue out whether it is taking a rest or driven away.

Al-Hasan (rahimahullaah) said:

It is the Munaafiq. He does not remain firm upon the truth whether he is called or left alone; whether he is admonished or not admonished, just like the dog that lolls its tongue out whether driven away or left alone.

So Allaah (The Most High) gave an example of the one who abandoned His Aayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc), saying: He is misguided whether you admonish him or leave him alone, just like the dog that lolls its tongue out whether driven away or left alone. This Ayah (i.e. A’raaf 176) is similar to the saying of Allaah (The Most High):

[وَإِن تَدۡعُوهُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡهُدَىٰ لَا يَتَّبِعُوڪُمۡ‌ۚ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ أَدَعَوۡتُمُوهُمۡ أَمۡ أَنتُمۡ صَـٰمِتُونَ  ] ”And if you call them to guidance, they follow you not. It is the same for you whether you call them or you keep silent.” [7:193]

 وَلَوۡ شِئۡنَا لَرَفَعۡنَـٰهُ بِہَا وَلَـٰكِنَّهُ ۥۤ أَخۡلَدَ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَٮٰهُ‌ۚ فَمَثَلُهُ ۥ كَمَثَلِ ٱلۡڪَلۡبِ إِن تَحۡمِلۡ عَلَيۡهِ يَلۡهَثۡ أَوۡ تَتۡرُڪۡهُ يَلۡهَث‌ۚ ذَّٲلِكَ مَثَلُ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا‌ۚ فَٱقۡصُصِ ٱلۡقَصَصَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

”And had We willed, We would surely have elevated him therewith but he clung to the earth and followed his own vain desire. So his description is the description of a dog: if you drive him away, he lolls his tongue out, or if you leave him alone, he (still) lolls his tongue out. Such is the description of the people who reject Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.). So relate the stories, perhaps they may reflect.’’ [7:176]

Allaah likens him—[the one whom He gave knowledge of the Book and taught him knowledge which was not given to others, but he abandoned it; followed his desires and preferred the Anger of Allaah over the Pleasure of Allaah; preferred the worldly life over the afterlife and preferred the created beings over the Creator]—to a dog, which is considered to be from the meanest of animals; the lowest in status and the meanest in inclination.

Its desire does not exceed beyond its stomach (i.e. its desire for food). It is considered to among the greediest (of animals) and most eager (for food). And due to its eagerness (for food), it does not go about except that it places its nose on the ground, whilst sniffing and roaming about greedily and eagerly. It does not cease smelling its anus besides all its other body parts. If a stone is thrown at it, it returns to bite it due to extreme greed. When it takes possession of a dead animal enough for a hundred dogs, it would not allow another dog to eat anything from it, except whilst growling and seeking to gain the upper hand due to eagerness, greed and covetousness.

                In this parable about the one likened to a dog that constantly lolls its tongue out—[the one who gave precedence to this worldly life and its quick fading enjoyment over the afterlife despite his abundant knowledge of the Book]—there is a marvellous underlying reason. And that is because this person whom Allaah mentioned as one who abandoned the verses of Allaah and followed his desires, he (only) did so out of severe eagerness for the worldly life and due his heart being separated from Allaah and the afterlife. He is extremely eager for it and his eagerness is similar to the constant eagerness of a dog whether it is troubled or left alone.

Bigotry; Blameworthy love of the Dunyah; Envy and Pride are obstacles to accepting the truth

Written by Jallow Abdullah on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Purification of The Soul, Scholars of Islam.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Al-Allaamah Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Yahyah Al-Mu-allimee (rahimahullaah) stated that the Religion comprises of various levels: Abstinence from the prohibited affairs and fulfilment of commandments; acknowledgment of truth, belief in it and awareness of it.  And opposing one’s desires by refraining (from falsehood) for the sake of the truth is something very clear, for indeed most of what is prohibited are the lusts and (evil) pleasures.  And it may be that a person does not really desire anything of those (prohibited) things in particular, but he merely desires them due to an opponent. Opposing one’s desires–by way of action– for the sake of the truth is a manifest affair due to what it necessitates of responsibility and difficulty, and this occurs from different angles:

Firstly: A person sees that by acknowledging the truth it would necessitate that he was upon falsehood, because a person is nurtured upon a religion, creed, school of thought or views which were inherited from his nurturer and teacher, and which he considers to be the truth; so when it is manifested that those affairs are falsehood, it becomes difficult for him to acknowledge that. This is because he sees that the deficiencies of his teacher or nurturer necessitate his own deficiencies, and an acknowledgement of their misguidance or errors necessitates his own deficiencies…..

Secondly: It may be that clinging to falsehood brings him prestige, fame and a livelihood, so it becomes difficult for him to acknowledge that he is upon falsehood, which may result in a loss of all those things (i.e. the fame, prestige, livelihood etc).

Thirdly: Pride: It may be that a person is upon ignorance or falsehood, so another person comes along and clarifies the proofs for him; but he sees that by acknowledging such proofs, it would necessitate that he is deficient and that it was such a person who guided him. And due to this we find that it is not difficult for some of those who attribute themselves to knowledge to acknowledge their mistakes when it becomes manifests to them in their researches and studies, but it becomes difficult upon them when others clarify such mistakes for them.

Fourthly: Envy: It may be that when another person clarifies the truth for him, he sees that by acknowledging such truth, it would necessitate an acknowledgement of the clarifier’s virtue, knowledge and correctness due to that clarification; so this may become great in the eyes of the people and they begin to follow him. So you will find some of those who attribute themselves to knowledge being eager to prove the mistakes of other scholars even if that is done by way of falsehood, due to envy and seeking to diminish their status amongst the people.

Opposing one’s desires for the sake of the truth in affairs of knowledge and creed can be difficult, so it requires research and contemplation. Also in facing such difficulty one is in need of asking the scholars and benefitting from them. So with regards to what has been stated about a person’s acknowledgement of the truth and the difficulty in doing so, he should cling to Taqwah, whilst seeking the Tawfeeq of Allaah and guidance.

Travelling to Syria to Fight: [Shaikh Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbaad fears evil and corruption for you]

After the Shaikh (may Allaah preserve him) was asked about travelling to Syria to join the fighting, he said that the people of Syria are in need of du’aa, so a person should hasten to make du’aa for them. As for a person traveling to Syria, then it is feared that he will be similar to those who went to Iraq and brought about evil and corruption upon themselves.

The Deviant Ways of The [الْأَحْزاب السِّيَاسِيَّة ] and Sayyid Qutb are utilised to attack Salafiyyah!

Written by Jallow Abdullah on . Posted in Brotherhood, Calling To Islam - 'Da'wa', Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

 

Shaikh Rabee Bin Haadi (may Allaah preserve him) said:

Then the political parties (or groups) came in this era (whilst) being affected- to some extent-with the creed and methodologies of this sect (i.e. the khawaarij). And for this reason they do not give importance to (other affairs) besides politics. They neither have any concern in rectifying the state of affairs of the Ummah though (sound) Creed and Knowledge nor do they reflect about returning the Ummah to the Book and the Sunnah, and to that which the Salafus Saaleh were upon of steadfastness and righteousness in every aspect of the Religion. Rather they [i.e. these political parties (or groups) increase the Ummah in corruption upon corruption—in creed and manners. So you see them giving allegiance to the people of bidah and misguidance. They wage war against the people who (truly) follow the Qur’aan and the Sunnah, (and they wage war against) their scholars (i.e. the scholars of those who truly adhere to the Qur’aan and the Sunnah). And they apportion untrue resolutions and false slogans for ahlul bidah wad-dalaalah (i.e. the people of bidah and misguidance) and their books—and from them (i.e. those ahlu bidah wad-dalaalah) are Sayyid Qutb and his followers.

Sayyid Qutb; the one who set out upon the stratagem of the Khawaarij, the Rawaafid, the Mu’tazilah and the Jahmiyyah—in creed, methodology and politics–, especially in the affair of making (false) takfeer based on oppression and ignorance. According to him (i.e. sayyid Qutb) all human societies are societies of Pre-Islamic ignorance and the Muslim Ummah is the severest in its apostasy and Pre-Islamic state of ignorance…..up until the Shaikh (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) said: Then the path of the Baatiniyyah was added to this nurturing, (such) as assassinations, (causing) explosions etc. And at this juncture, his followers attribute themselves to the Salafi Methodology with a mighty plot against its (true, upright) leaders.

(So) when you come to know this, then you will know that the Salafi Methodology is free from this (type) of Takfeer, (the evil act of causing) explosions and destruction. And you will know who the people of this treachery are. If you know this, then it is an act of manifest oppression when those given to [falsehood, oppression and lies etc amongst] the Raafidah, the Secularists and Rationalists come along and attribute what takes place of (terrorist) explosions, (false) takfeer and destruction to the Salafi Methodology.
