أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَوَضَّأَ، وَمَسَحَ عَلَى الْجَوْرَبَيْنِ وَالنَّعْلَيْنِ
'That the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ performed Wudu and wiped over the socks and shoes.'

📚[Collected by Abu Dawood, Tirmidhi and he said this Hadeeth is Hasan Saheeh, Nisa’ee & authenticated by Al-Albaani]

🔶2 - From Aws bin Abi Aws who said:

‘One day I saw my father performing Wudu and he wiped over his shoes, so I asked: 'Do you wipe over them?'

He replied:
هكذا رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يفعل
'I saw the Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- do likewise.'

📚[Collected by Ahmad, Tabarani in 'al-Kabeer' & Al-Albaani said and this Isnaad is Saheeh, in ‘Thamaratul Mustataab fee Fiqh as-Sunnah wal Kitab’]

🔶3 From Abdikhair who said: I saw Ali -RadhiAllaahu anhu- perform Wudu and wipe over his shoes, then Ali said:
لولا أني رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فعل كما رأيتموني فعلت
لرأيت أن باطن القدمين هو أحق بالمسح من ظاهرهما.
'If I had not seen the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam do as you have seen me just do, I would have held the opinion that the bottom of feet had more of a right to be wiped over than the top of the foot.'

📚[Collected by Ahmad, Darimi  & Al-Albaani said: and this Isnaad is Saheeh]

Increase in Saying 'Lā ilāha ill-Allāh'

Al-Imām ibn Hazm (رحمه الله) said:

"Increase in saying لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ 'Lā ilāha illa-Allāh' (there is none is worthy of worship but Allah), for it can be perfectly said with the movement of the tongue, without moving the lips, and the person sitting next to you will not notice it."

*The Issue of wiping over Khuff & wiping over shoes*

By Shaykh Muhammad Nasiruddeen al-Albaani

Questioner:
O noble shaykh, regarding the issue of wiping over Khuff and is this issue the same as wiping over shoes as many of the people of knowledge have opposed this?

Answer
Shaykh Al-Albaani:

‘Of course, indeed many of the people of knowledge opposed it and others agreed with it, and so what?

Is there an issue about which the scholars did not differ except for very few issues.

When it comes to differences, it is necessary that a Muslim....'

Victory and honour is from Allāh, and it is sought by the obedience of Allāh.

‎Allāh says in the Qurān:

‎مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ ٱلْعِزَّةَ فَلِلَّهِ ٱلْعِزَّةُ جَمِيعًا

‎Whosoever desires honour, power and glory then to Allah belong all honour, power and glory. (35:10)

‎The Imān Abdul-Rahmān Ibn Nāsir al Si’dī رحمه الله said in his explanation of this verse:

‎أي: يا من يريد العزة، اطلبها ممن هي بيده، فإن العزة بيد اللّه، ولا تنال إلا بطاعته

‎“What is meant by this verse is, O you who wants ‘izah (honour, power and glory), seek it from the one who possesses it, for indeed ‘izah (honour, power and glory) belongs to Allāh and it can only be attained except through by his obedience.”

‎When there is relief from Allāh, the Muslims should be grateful to Allāh by way of obedience.

‎When ‘Āisha رضي الله عنها وعن أبيها was made free of the false accusations and the relief came from Allāh, the first thing She رضي الله عنها وعن أبيها did was prostrate to Allāh.

‎May Allāh make us all grateful and obedient slaves of His until we meet Him تبارك وتعالى.

The Best and Worst Among You

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"Shall I not inform you of the best among you and the worst among you?
The best of you are those whose goodness is hoped for, and whose harm is safe from.
The worst of you are those whose goodness is not hoped for, and whose harm is not safe from."

The Importance of Seeking Guidance from Allah

{أَتُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَهْدُوا مَنْ أَضَلَّ اللَّهُ ۖ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلِ اللَّهُ فَلَنْ تَجِدَ لَهُ سَبِيلًا}

"Do you wish to guide those whom Allah has sent astray? And whomever Allah sends astray, you will never find a way for them." (Surah An-Nisa, Ayah 88)

Sheikh Muhammad Al-Ameen Ash-Shanqeeti (رحمه الله) said:

"From this verse we learn, that a servant of Allah should supplicate much and plead with Allah to guide them and not lead them astray. For whoever Allah guides will never be misled, and whoever He leads astray will have no guide."

The Role of Pure Islam in Bringing and Restoring Glory to the Ummah of Muhammad (ﷺ)

Shaykh Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani (رحمه الله) said:

"Islam is what elevated the Arabs and saved them from Shirk (polytheism) to Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism), from darkness to light, from misguidance to guidance. This pure Islam is what will restore glory to these Muslims. However, if this Islam has been mixed with what does not belong to it, it will not produce the same fruits it once gave to those Arabs."

This is its establishment."

The Heavens Almost Ripped Apart When They Ascribed a Son to Allah

۝ تَكَادُ السَّمَاوَاتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِنْهُ وَتَنشَقُّ الْأَرْضُ وَتَخِرُّ الْجِبَالُ هَدًّا

“Whereby the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins,”

۝ أَن دَعَوْا لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ وَلَدًا

“That they ascribe a son (or offspring or children) to the Most Beneficent (Allah).”
(Surah Maryam, 90-91)

Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said:

“The heavens, earth, mountains, and all of creation except humans and jinn were shaken and almost destroyed. The angels became angry, and Hellfire blazed with fury when they said that Allah has taken a son.”

Reflect on Your State, For You Will Be Resurrected Upon the State in Which You Died Upon

The Prophet ﷺ said:

"Every servant will be resurrected according to the state in which he died."

📚 Muslim, 2878.

Points to Reflect Upon:

• Dying upon Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism) or Shirk (Polytheism)?
• Dying upon the Sunnah (Prophetic Way) or Bid’ah (Innovation)?
• Dying in a state of sins or obedience to Allah?

O Allah grant us a good ending out of Your Mercy. Aameen.

The Different Levels of People in Understanding the Qur’an

Shaykh Saalih Al-Fawzan (may Allah preserve him) said:

"The Qur’an has clear parts that both ordinary people and those with knowledge can understand. These parts are enough to be a proof against all of creation.

It also has parts that only scholars understand, and some parts that only Allah, the Most High, knows."

The Difference Between a Prophet and a Messenger (عليه السلام)

All Messengers are Prophets, but not all Prophets are Messengers.

A Prophet (Nabi) is someone who Allah has given guidance or a Shari’ah (law) for himself. Sometimes, Allah asks the Prophet to teach it to people who already believe in the same message (of Tawheed—Islamic Monotheism).

A Messenger (Rasool) is someone who Allah has given a new Shari’ah (law) and commanded him to deliver it to people who disagree with him or oppose the message (of Tawheed—Islamic Monotheism).

The 3 Types of Bliss for a Believer

Imam Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

"The believer has three types of bliss that he attains due to obedience to Allah and His pleasure. Bliss in this world, bliss in the grave—which is greater than the bliss of this world, and bliss in Paradise—which is greater than the bliss of this world and the grave."

Are You Worse Than Iblees? Then Don’t Stop Making Du’a!

Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

“Do not let your bad opinion of yourself or your many sins stop you from calling upon your Lord. He answered the prayer of Iblees (Shaytan) when he said, ‘My Lord, give me respite until the Day they are resurrected.’ Allah replied, ‘Indeed, you are of those given respite.’”
