Keep Our Hearts Firm Upon Salafiyyah
Abu Umar Farooq - https://sau.posthaven.com
"If you do not understand your Salafiyyah, if you do not give time to learn your Salafiyyah, you're going to be in problems! Because Salafiyyah is not based upon association!"

Although, he may find some degree of pleasure and bliss and joy and happiness in worldly things, things outside of his religion, things outside of remembering Allāh then the joy that he finds and the pleasure that he experiences, it is not something that is continuous... It is something that is fleeting, it is momentary, it comes and it goes. To the point that, he has to go from one category of enjoyment to another category of enjoyment.
a) A person eats and eats and eats, and sooner or later he's going to have to stop eating.
b) A person, they enjoy conversation with their family their family enjoys conversation with them if you talk too long you're going to get on somebody's nerves right?
-People talk about one thing that leads to another topic another subject, another subject, two hours later You're like, "Cool story bro! I gotta go.

BARĪRAH, THE FREED SLAVE OF 'Ā'ISHAH
When Barīrah was freed, she was given the choice to stay with her husband or leave him.
Ibn 'Abbās (رضي الله عنه) said:
Barīrah's husband was a slave called Mughīth. It is as if I can see him now, walking behind her and weeping, with tears running down his cheeks. The Prophet ﷺ said to 'Abbās, "O 'Abbās, are you not amazed by the love of Mughīth for Barīrah, and the hatred of Barīrah for Mughīth?" And the Prophet said to her, "Why don't you take him back, for he is the father of your child?" She said, "O Messenger of Allāh, are you commanding me (to do so)?" He said, "No; rather, I am interceding." She said, "I have no need of him."*

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymīn (رحمه الله) said:
“If someone is unsure about how many days they need to make up for fasting, they should go with the lower number. For example, if a man or woman is uncertain whether they need to make up three or four days, they should assume three, because that is certain, while the extra day is doubtful. The general rule is that a person is not responsible for something unless they are sure of it.
However, it is better to make up the additional day just to be safe. If it turns out that it was required, then they have fulfilled their obligation with certainty. And if it was not required, then it counts as a voluntary fast, which is still a good deed. Allah does not let the reward of those who do good go to waste.”

[“They Say I am Reserved” An Advice on Self-Respect & Preserving the Dignity of Islamic Knowledge]
Many of us grow up in places where teachers and scholars are not respected. Instead of being honored, they are dismissed, undermined, unsupported, or even attacked and mocked. There is nothing new about any of that.
The Qāḍī ʿAlī ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz al-Jurjānī, was criticized for keeping his distance from people. But his “distance” was not arrogance or antisocial withdrawal—it was self-respect. He refused to lower himself for worldly gains, to flatter potential benefactors, or to use sacred knowledge as a tool to win favor. He famously composed the following poetry:
يَقُولُونَ لِي فِيكَ انْقِبَاضٌ وَإِنَّمَا … رَأَوْا رَجُلًا عَنْ مَوْقِفِ الذُّلِّ أَحْجَمَا
“They say I am reserved—yet all they have seen is a man who recoils away from dishonor.
أَرَى النَّاسَ مَنْ دَانَاهُمْ هَانَ عِنْدَهُمْ … وَمَنْ أَكْرَمَتْهُ عِزَّةُ النَّفْسِ أُكْرِمَا
I see that whoever gets too close to people is devalued by them, but he who is ennobled by self-dignity is honored.
وَلَمْ أَقْضِ حَقَّ الْعِلْمِ إِنْ كَانَ كُلَّمَا … بَدَا طَمَعٌ صَيَّرْتُهُ لِي سُلَّمَا
I would not fulfill the right of knowledge if every opportunity for a favor that arose, I turned into a ladder for myself.
وَمَا كُلُّ بَرْقٍ لَاحَ لِي يَسْتَفِزُّنِي … وَلَا كُلُّ مَنْ لَاقَيْتُ أَرْضَاهُ مُنْعِمَا
Not every flash of lightning stirs me to chase it, nor do I flatter every man I meet as a potential benefactor.
إذَا قِيلَ هَذَا مَنْهَلٌ قُلْتُ قَدْ أَرَى … وَلَكِنَّ نَفْسَ الْحُرِّ تَحْتَمِلُ الظَّمَا
If they say, “Here is a spring to drink from,” I answer, “I see it— But the soul of the free endures thirst with patience.”
انْهَهَا عَنْ بَعْضِ مَا لَا يَشِينُهَا … مَخَافَةَ أَقْوَالِ الْعِدَا فِيمَ أَوْ لِمَا
I restrain it from things that wouldn’t even dishonor it, lest my enemies ask in scorn, “Why this, and why that?”
وَلَمْ أَبْتَذِلْ فِي خِدْمَةِ الْعِلْمِ مُهْجَتِي … لِأَخْدُمَ مَنْ لَاقَيْتُ لَكِنْ لِأُخْدَمَا
I did not exhaust myself in the service of knowledge to serve everyone I meet, but so that I might be served in return.
أَأَشْقَى بِهِ غَرْسًا وَأَجْنِيهِ ذِلَّةً … إِذًا فَاتِّبَاعُ الْجَهْلِ قَدْ كَانَ أَحْزَمَا
Shall I toil to plant it, only to reap humiliation? If so, then seeking ignorance would have been the wiser course of action.
وَلَوْ أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ صَانُوهُ صَانَهُمْ … وَلَوْ عَظَّمُوهُ فِي النُّفُوسِ لَعُظِّمَا
Had the people of knowledge preserved its dignity, it would have preserved them; Had they magnified it in their souls, it would have been magnified.
وَلَكِنْ أَهَانُوهُ فَهَانَ وَدَنَّسُوا … مُحَيَّاهُ بِالْأَطْمَاعِ حَتَّى تَجَهَّمَا
But they debased it, so it was debased, and stained its countenance with greedy expectations until it grew ugly.”
This is how we rebuild a culture of respect for teachers and scholars: by starting with our personal attitudes on its preciousness, holding learning as sacred, and refusing to let it be debased.
Knowledge is not a cheap commodity: Do not bow for crumbs or flatter those those with influence. Learning is a crown, not a begging bowl. Don’t feed the egos of self-appointed gatekeepers; flatten delusional hierarchies.
Respect begins with yourself: If you treat what you know as cheap, others will follow suit and devalue knowledge. Carry what you know with dignity, and people will honor you because of it.
Walk away from humiliation: Better to die on your feet than live on your knees. Better to remain obscure and even mediocre than to treat knowledge in a way that drags you into pandering for money or status. Not everyone who wears an honorific title protects its sanctity.
The easy road—compromise, flattery, cheap rewards—only makes you small. The harder road of self-respect builds strength that no one can strip from you.
Learning should elevate, not humiliate you:
The purpose is to honor you, not to belittle you. Knowledge is meant to free you, not chain you.
