⚠️ Giving Up On Life ⚠️
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
▫️Suicide is a major sin, and the one who does that is faced with a warning of eternity in the Fire of Hell, where Allaah will punish him with the means that he used to commit suicide.
▪️It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Whoever throws himself down from a mountain and kills himself will be throwing himself down in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever drinks poison and kills himself will be sipping it in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever kills himself with a piece of iron will have that iron in his hand, thrusting it into his belly in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever.”
📖 Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5442) and Muslim (109),
▪️It was narrated from Thaabit ibn Dahhaak (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Whoever kills himself with something will be punished with it on the Day of Resurrection.”
📖 Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5700) and Muslim (110).
▪️It was narrated that Jundub ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:
“A man among those who came before you was wounded. He panicked and took a knife and cut his hand, and the bleeding did not stop until he died. Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, said: ‘My slave hastened his death; I have forbidden Paradise to him.”
📖 Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3276) and Muslim (113).
▫️The believer has to be patient and to seek the help of Allaah, may He be exalted, and understand that no matter what hardship befalls him in this world -- no matter how severe it is -- the punishment of the Hereafter is worse than it. It is not acceptable according to anyone who is of right mind to run away from the heat of the desert and throw himself into the fire. How can he flee from temporary hardship and difficulty -- which inevitably will come to an end -- to an eternal punishment which has no end?
The Muslim should ponder and realise that he is not the only one in this world who is affected by calamity and hardship. Calamities befell the greatest of mankind, namely the Prophets, Messengers and the righteous. They also befell the worst of mankind, namely the disbelievers and atheists.
Calamity is part of the natural order of things and hardly anyone is safe from it.
If the believer handles it well and is patient, and it becomes a means that makes him turn back to Allaah and strive hard in worship and righteous deeds, then the calamity will have been good for him and will be expiation for his sins, and perhaps he will meet Allaah with no burden of sin.
▪️The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:
“No pain, hardship, sickness or grief befalls a believer, not even worry that befalls him, but some of his bad deeds will be expiated.”
📖 Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5642) and Muslim (2573).
▪️It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Calamities will continue to befall believing men and women in themselves, their children and their wealth, until they meet Allaah with no burden of sin.”
📖 Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi (2399), Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Silsilat al-Ahaadeeth al-Saheehah (2280).

What to say when entering the house
It’s widespread that when one enters the house he makes the following supplication
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ الْمَوْلِجِ وَخَيْرَ الْمَخْرَجِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَلَجْنَا وَبِسْمِ اللَّهِ خَرَجْنَا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ رَبِّنَا تَوَكَّلْنَا ثُمَّ لْيُسَلِّمْ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ
▪️Narrated AbuMalik Al-Ash’ari:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: When a man goes into his house, he should say: “O Allah! I ask Thee for good both when entering and when going out; in the name of Allah we have entered, and in the name of Allah we have gone out, and in Allah our Lord do we trust.” He should then greet his family.
But the correct stance regarding this narration is that it is weak due to a cut in the chain as Imam Al Albani clarified after previously authenticating it.
What does one say then?
▪️Imam An Nawawi said:
If he enters his house it is recommended to say “Bismillah”. He should increase from the remembrance of Allah Ta’ala, and he should give Salaam, whether there is a human in the house or not due to the statement of Allah Ta’alaa
فإذَا دَخَلْتُمْ بُيُوتاً فَسَلِّمُوا على أنْفُسِكُمُ تَحِيَّةً مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ مُبَارَكَةً طَيِّبَةً
But when you enter the houses, greet one another with a greeting from Allah (i.e. say: As-Salamu ‘Alaikum – peace be on you) blessed and good. [24:61]
📖 [Saheeh Al Athkaar An Nawawiya page 32]
▪️It comes from Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, “If a person mentions the Name of Allah upon entering his house or eating, Satan says, addressing his followers: ‘You will find nowhere to spend the night and no dinner.’ But if he enters without mentioning the Name of Allah, Satan says (to his followers); ‘You have found (a place) to spend the night in, and if he does not mention the Name of Allah at the time of eating, Satan says: ‘You have found (a place) to spend the night in as well as food.”‘
📖 [Muslim].
▪️Also it comes from Anas Radiallahu Anhu he said that the messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه و سلم said to me:
O my little son! When you enter upon your family then give the Salam, it will be a blessing for you and upon the inhabitants of your house.”

Wearing Pants
Shaykh Abdul-Muhsin Al-Abbaad was asked:
▪️Question:
What is the ruling of wearing the Qamees in Europe, that which is accustomed among them is wearing the pants and similar to it?
Answer:
Wearing the Qamees is something good, this is what is befitting because the Europeans when they come to us [i.e. our land], they wear their clothing. Thus why do we see Muslims when they go there take off their clothing and wear the clothing of the disbelievers?

Importance of Giving Salaam
Ash Shaykh Al Uthaymeen said:
▪️I always repeat this point to you ‘applying’ [that which you learn], whether it be in acts of worship, manners or in dealings. Apply it until it is known you are a student of knowledge, and act with that which you have learnt.
We will put forth an example: If one you passes by his brother, is it legislated for him that he gives him Salams?
The Answer:
Yes it is legislated, but I see many pass by his brothers and it is as if he passes by a pillar. He doesn’t give him Salams, and this is a great mistake. Whereas it is possible we criticize the general folk if they were to do similar to this act, then how can we not criticize the student? What will harm you if you said ‘As Salam Alaykum’? How many good deeds will you get? Ten rewards, which equal the whole world, ten good deeds. If it was said to the people, anyone who passes by his brother and gives him Salam he will be given ten Riyaal, you will find the people circling the markets so that they may give Salams, because he will obtain Riyaals. But ten good deeds, we are negligent in regards to it. Allahul Mustaan.

A Health Benefit
▪️Ash-Shaykh Muhammad bin Saalih al-Uthaymeen, rahimahullah, said:
“It is not medically correct that when a person breaks his fast he has dinner right away as how some people do [nowadays]. However, what is medically necessary [here] is that you give your stomach a small amount since it has become empty.”

Playing Qur'aan in the car from speakers next to the feet
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked:
Q. In some cars the speakers are level with the feet, and feet or shoes may be placed on the speaker. My question is: when playing Qur'aan, is there any disrespect to the Book of Allah in doing this? Is this comparable to your fatwa against those who stretched out their feet in front of the Book of Allah? We hope that you can advise us, may Allah preserve you.
A. He replied: If the speakers are beneath the feet as described or are level with the feet, then you should not play Qur'aan, because the fact that the Qur'aan is being heard from beneath a person’s feet is undoubtedly a kind of disrespect towards the Qur'aan. If a person must listen to Qur'aan, then he should lift the speakers above the level of his feet.

◾️He who abandons the prayer is a disbeliever, and a disbeliever doesn’t hold guardianship over a believer◾️
Answered by Shaykh Abu Hamza Hassan bin Muhammed Ba Shu'ayb - may Allah preserve him - on the 17th, Muharram, 1439H
📝🔹Question:
A woman wants to get married however her father doesn’t pray.
Is it still possible for him to be her guardian?
If not, she has a maternal uncle that’s upright (in the religion), is it possible that he takes the position of guardianship over her?
📩🔸Answer:
It’s not permissible for her father to marry her off, while he’s in the condition of abandoning the prayer, and because a disbeliever does not have guardianship over a Muslim.
Likewise it’s not permissible for the (maternal) uncle to marry her off, as he’s not from the band of those that can take this place.

Ibn al-Mubarak (rahimahillah) said:
It used to be that when a man saw something he disliked from his brother, he would advise him privately, and he would be rewarded for his advice and for doing it in private. As for today, if a man sees something he dislikes, he angers his brother and destroys his privacy (reveals his faults and secrets).
