I am free (or liberated) and I am free to do what I want! [Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen responds]

Imaam Muhammad Bin Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) was asked about the statement of a person who says:

I am free (or liberated)”

 

Answer

If a liberated/free man says this and intends by it freedom from slavery to the creation, then yes he is free from slavery to the creation. However, if he intends by this that he is liberated/ freed from servitude to Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic), then indeed he has erred in his understanding of servitude and he does not understand the meaning of freedom/liberation; because servitude to other than Allaah is bondage. As for the servitude of a person to Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic), then this is real freedom; because if he does not humble himself to Allaah, he will humble himself to other than Allaah. So he deceives himself when he says that he is free/liberated, meaning: he is liberated from obedience to Allaah and does not fulfil (such obedience to Him).

Imaam Muhammad Bin Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) was asked about the statement of a disobedient person, who when met with disapproval (due to sins committed he would say):

I am free with regards to what I carry out of my own actions.”

 

Answer

This is an error; we say: You are not free to disobey Allaah, rather if you disobey Allaah, then indeed you have violated the slavery which you claim to be upon of obedience, humility and submission to Allaah;  and you have entered into the bondage of Shaytaan and desires.

[Source: A-Manaahiy Al-Lafdhiyyah: Page: 117]

 

No sensible person would desire this for himself/herself

Allaah (The Most High) said:

فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخَالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَن تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

And let those who oppose the Messenger’s (Muhammad) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) beware, lest some Fitnah befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them. [24:63]

Reminders from Imaam Ibnul Jawzi (rahimahullaah)

There are three statements of the scholars regarding the Fit’nah intended in this Ayah: Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) said that this fitnah is ‘misguidance’; Mujaahid (rahimahullaah) said that it is ‘tribulation in the worldly life’; Muqaatil and As-Sadiy (rahimahumallaah) said that it is ‘disbelief’

And there are two statements of the scholars regarding the punishment intended in this Ayah: It is either the presence of ‘killing in this worldly life’ or punishment in the hell fire in the afterlife.

 ————————————————————————————————————-

Abridged and paraphrased. See Zaadul Maseer of Imaam Ibnul Jawzi (rahimahullaah)

There is no unrestricted partisanship to anyone besides the Messenger of Allaah

Al-Allaamah Zayd Bin Haadi Al-Madkhali (rahimahullaah) stated:

There is no (unrestricted) partisanship except to the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) because he is infallible and never speaks out of his desires. As for unrestricted partisanship to personalities whether they are correct or mistaken, then indeed this is not permissible for the seeker of knowledge.  On the other hand, he should look to such and such Shaikhs as to which of them is upon uprightness and is following the Manhaj of the Salaf. This is the one whom we place our hands on his hands- not out of blameworthy blind following, rather due to the fact that he is upon the truth. So we agree with him upon truth and follow a singular path in obedience to the statement of Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic):

[وَأَنَّ هَٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ ۖ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِ ]

“And verily, this is my Straight Path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His Path. 6:153

As for the one who selects Shaikhs, leaders and guides, whilst being in agreement with them- in what is correct and wrong- to the extent that they do not leave their Manhaj whether they are correct or wrong, then these are the people who bring evil upon themselves and upon others. And if they do not repent, then they are most worthy of being blamed. So the affair-and all praise belongs to Allaah- is clear and it is not permissible for a person to be in confusion regarding this affair.

Therefore, we are with those who follow the straight path-we follow a singular path which Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic) has commanded us to follow and which the messenger called us to. And those you follow the wrong path or are mistaken in many of their affairs, or in some of their affairs, we leave him (i.e. we leave his mistakes or abandon him when he deserves to be boycotted). None is followed in everything except the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam). As for the people, then indeed they can be correct or mistaken. Indeed, we do not follow them and we do not follow their footsteps solely because they are Shaikhs, Callers to Islaam, leaders or guides; rather you should be with the people of the Salafi Manhaj-those who follow the correct manhaj and correct understanding.

[4] The Haal of Abdul Maalik Ar-Ramadaani! [Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadi Clarifies one of Abdul Maalik’s falsehoods]

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadi (may Allaah preserve him) stated

At present-during these days in particular-this term Ghuluww is utilised by the one who wants to slip away from the Salafi Manhaj. He does not utilise it in a correct manner. It is utilised by the likes of Ali Hasan Al-Halabi and those with him; it is utilised by Abul Hasan Al-Maribi and those with him; it is utilised by Abdul Maalik Ramadaani and those with him.

All these people do not intend (i.e. in their usage of the term Ghuluww) the Gluluww that the Messenger of Allaah [sallal-laahu-alayhis-wasallam] (meant or warned against); rather in reality they intend (by way of their usage of the term Ghuluww) Ahlus Sunnah Wal-Jamaa-ah. They intend the Salafiyyoon-those who wage war against Bidah; shunning it against those who (carry it); shunning those who establish it, or those who beautiful its affair or defend its people, or find (lame) excuses for them. They (i.e. these people who falsely accuse Ahlus Sunnah of Ghuluww) find excuses for these innovators-within the ranks of Ikhwaan al-muslimeen, or the Soorooris or those upon their path- who have separated from that which Ahlus Sunnah were upon during their era…. [End. Slightly paraphrased]

Therefore, be warned against Abdul-Maalik Ar-Ramadaani because he has been invited by the obstinate UK followers and defenders of Al-Halabi and Al-Maribi at Brixton and Luton. In-Shaa-Allaah some beneficial points will be extracted from the Arabic refutation against Abdul Maalik Ar-Ramadaani very soon. We ask Allaah for safety, steadfastness and truthfulness. Aameen

 

[3] The Haal of Abdul Malik Ar-Ramadaani! [Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari Clarifies]

 

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Abdul Malik says: I attend (i.e. the lessons or sittings) of Shaikh Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbaad, Abdur-Razzaaq Al-Badr and Sulaymaan Ar-Ruhayli, and I suffice with this. Is it that to be a Salafi I must be present (in the lessons, sittings) of Shaikh Ubaid Al-Jaabiri, Muhammad Ibn Haadi and Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari?

 

Response

*Who made this restriction that one must attend the [lessons (or) sittings)] of this one and not the lessons (or sittings)  of that one? Who said to Abdul Malik that Salafiyyah is restricted to Abdur-Razzaaq, Shaikh Abdul Muhsin and Sulaymaan? Who said that the Mashaayikh of the Sunnah have warned against those ones-meaning you should not attend (the lessons, sittings) of this one and that one?

These are statements of the people of desires and the people of Takhdheel. If you want to know the people of Takhdheel, they are those who utter the likes of this speech. The people of Takhdheel are from the most harmful of the people upon the Salafi Dawah at present. They are from the most harmful people against the Dawah. They wear the gown of Salafiyyah, whilst salafiyyah is free from them.

 

*Let us present this statement (of Abdul Malik) in the opposite direction. If you said to them: We attend the lessons (or sittings) of Shaikh Ubaid, Muhammad Ibn Haadi and Abdullaah al-Bukhaari and we do not attend that of Shaikh Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbaad, Abdur-Razzaaq nor that of Sulaymaan, then is it that a Salafi must attend the lessons of these (Mashaayikh) in order to be a Salafi? The question has now been presented in the opposite direction and they will not have an answer.

*We say: Attend the lessons (or sittings) of Shaikh Abdul Muhsin; attend the lessons (or sittings) of Shaikh Ubaid and the Mashaayikh of the Sunnah with a Shart (i.e. condition). And just because I say that you attend the lessons (or sittings) of Shaikh Abdul Muhsin does not mean that everything he says is correct; and when we say that attend the lessons (or sittings) of Shaikh Ubaid does not mean that everything he says is correct. This (scholar) utters what is correct and sometimes he is mistaken, and this is how it is. This is what is obligatory for you to know.

Just because I direct you to Shaikh Abdul Muhsin does not mean that you accept everything he says because he says what is correct (sometimes) and he is mistaken at other times. Likewise, this is the case with Shaikh Ubaid, Shaikh Rabee, the Muftee and Shaikh Fawzaan.

We accept the truth and we say: Indeed Imaam Ahmad was correct (i.e. in such and such) and mistaken (in such and such); Imaam Maalik was correct (in such and such) and was mistaken (in such and such)! Is this not the case? It is not the case that those ones were correct and were never mistaken.

*However, these people harbour discomfort in their souls for the Mashaayikh of the Sunnah, just as one of the Mukhad-dhilah Abdul Malik says that these (people) squeeze the Mashaayikh and they do not leave out except three Mashaayikh.  Liar (i.e. Abdul Malik is a liar). He has lied and committed an immoral act (i.e. by way of this statement of his).

 

*And you’ve heard Abdul Malik Ar-Ramadaani-this sick and deviated one-saying that he agrees with Ali Al-Halabi regarding what he has written in his book Manhajus Salafi (i.e. that depraved book) but he disagrees with the timing.  Abdul Malik is sick.

These people want to direct the Salafi youth towards such orientation and not towards aiding the Sunnah; rather they direct them towards bidah, betraying the truth and its people, aiding the people desires and speaking ill of Ahlus Sunnah.

[الله المستعان]-How many of us heed this warning of Umar Ibnul Khattaab?!

Ameerul Mumineen Umar Ibnul Khattaab (radiyallaahu-anhu) stated:

”Indeed, we are a people whom Allaah has given honour by way of Islaam; so when we (begin) to seek honour through other than what Allaah has given us honour, Allaah will degrade us!”

[Reported by Al-Haakim (rahimahullaah) in Al-Mustadrak (1/61-62]

Exercise patience upon (the authentic Sunnah) and do not give consideration to the obstinate opponents

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

Imaam Barbahaaree (rahimahullaah) said: ‘Whoever realizes what the innovators have abandoned of the Sunnah and left behind and he clings to it, he is a person of the Sunnah and the Jamaa’ah.  He should be followed, helped and protected.  He is one of those whom the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) bequeathed should be looked after'[1]

Shaikh Saaleh al Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) commented on this above statement of Imaam Barbahaari, saying: That is [found in the statement of the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam)]: ‘They are those upon that which I and my Companions are upon today’

He (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) advised that one should be with them- with this Jamaa’ah; this gathering of people and this group; which is upon that which the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and his Companions were upon.  However, this requires two affairs:

The First Affair is Knowledge; We learn that which the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and his Companions were upon.  As for the Jaahil, he does not learn whilst thinking that what the one in opposition is upon is what the Messenger was upon, when that is not the case.

The Second Affair is (firmness): To be firm upon that which the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and his Companions were upon; because the one who traverses upon the (authentic) Sunnah will receive grief, trouble and intimidation from the people; but he must exercise patience and not turn away from the truth.  He does not bargain (the truth) nor leaves anything of it; and for that reason it has been reported about the one who holds upon his Religion at the end of time is like one holding onto a burning coal or prickles as a result of what he will receive of hardship, grief and trouble from the people.  So he requires patience.[2]

Shaikh Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) says: The Callers to misguidance are of many types

The callers to misguidance are of many types. They have means of spreading their call which were not present in the past and many people have been deceived by them. Therefore, what is obligated upon us is to clarify and warn against them. Refute the shubuhaat (i.e. those affairs that are made to resemble the truth but are falsehood in reality); so that the people are saved from their evil or the one who wishes to be saved is saved.

[لِّيَهْلِكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ وَيَحْيَىٰ مَنْ حَيَّ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ- So that those who were to be destroyed might be destroyed after a clear evidence, and those who were to live might live after a clear evidence. (8:42)]
