The dangers of residing amongst the disbelievers

Sheikh Yahya ḥafidhahullāh wrote:

“...Residing amongst the disbelievers contains [many] harms and dangers, the most significant of which are as follows:

1- Resembling them, as the saying goes:
مَنْ جَالَسَ جَانَسَ
https://t.me/mufradaatun/454

And the Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever resembles a people, then he is one of them.”

Likewise, in the two Saheeh (Bukhāri & Muslim) from the hadeeth of Abu Mūsā raḍhiyallāhu ’anhu, the Prophet ﷺ said: “The example of a good companion and a bad companion is like the carrier of misk and the one who blows the bellows…” to the end of the hadeeth.

It has occurred from some of those who sit with the disbelievers that they have taken them as intimate friends, meanwhile our Lord says (translated meaning): “You will not find a people who believe in Allāh and the Last day making friendship with those who oppose Allāh and His Messenger even if they were their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their tribe...(to the end of the Āyah)” [Al-Mujaadilah: 22]

2- Residing amongst the disbelievers weakens the ghayrah (protective jealousy) within many people towards the true Deen of Allāh; that is because evil is so manifest that it seems normal to him.

3- The disbelievers control the Muslims and force them to refer to their laws of disbelief for judgement; this is seeking judgement from Tāghūt (i.e. Man-made laws).

4- The disbelievers believe they have done the Muslims a favour by giving them refuge and extending a helping hand to those who are unable to earn a living, meanwhile the Prophet ﷺ said: “The upper hand (the one that gives) is better than the lower hand (the one that takes).”

Even though they capitalise (financially) from this thorough other means, like taxes and the like, and they gain certain things, such as (1) degrading the Muslim and (2) feeling a sense of might and having done him a favour.

5- Increasing the masses of the disbelievers, although increasing the masses of the people of falsehood is prohibited. That is why the Muslims
would make hijrah to Madeenah in order to increase the masses of the Muslims and support them.

6- The disbelievers taking advantage of the Muslims by employing them in jobs that are not legislated, gradually stripping then of their religion and wasting their children. Many Muslim children in the west who have separated from their native lands have become Christians and have fallen into the most repulsive of abominations as we have pointed out in our aforementioned treatise (i.e. What I witnessed in Britain).

7- Taking away their Arabic language and their Islamic traits such that the easiest of Islamic sciences becomes difficult for them; because they educate him using a different language; since they are the ones who assign the curriculum.

8- Some of the Muslims have died in the lands of the disbelievers and left behind infants who open their eyes amongst the disbelievers so they too become disbelievers as we have mentioned in the aforementioned treatise, meanwhile Allāh says (translated meaning): “O you who believe, protect yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is people and stones.” [At-Tahreem: 6]

And the Prophet ﷺ says: “Each one of you is a shepherd and each one of you is responsible for his
flock.”

And he ﷺ said: “There is not a slave who Allāh makes responsible for a flock then he dies while being insincere towards his flock except that he does not enter paradise…” to the end of the hadeeth.

9- Oppression of the Muslims especially when wars occur between the Muslims and the disbelievers or when something that does not please them occurs from some Muslims. You see the disbelievers oppressing the Muslims and rejoicing over their mishaps and violating their honor. And they send forward the Muslims to fight their Muslim brothers in other lands, as they did in the Iraq war and others. So if something harmful occurs it affects the Muslims within themselves while the disbelievers give the orders.”

10- The Muslim is affected by material wealth and he becomes very excited about the Dunya and its temptations, which in turn leads him to become heedless of the hereafter - except for he who Allāh has mercy on.

Allāh عز وجل says (translated meaning): “Say: the enjoyment of this life is little and the hereafter is better for he who fears Allāh. And you will not be dealt with unjustly at all (not even the equivalent of a small thread of the date pit.)” [An-Nisaa: 77]

And He says (translated meaning):
“What is with you will perish and what is with Allāh remains.” [An-Nahl: 96]

And this act of being influenced is a result of intermingling with such people, concerning whom Allāh has said (translated meaning):
“And surely you will find them the greediest of people for life…” [Al-Baqarah: 96]

And He said about them (translated meaning): “Their hands are shackled (they are stingy) and they are cursed for what they say…” [Al-Maa'idah: 64]

He also said about them (translated meaning): “They know what is apparent of the life of this world while they are heedless of the Hereafter.” [Ar-Room: 7]

11- A person's state hinges between life and death, and if he dies amongst the disbelievers he leaves himself in a dangerous situation as several hadeeths indicate; like the hadeeth where the Prophet ﷺ said:

“I am free from he who resides amongst the disbelievers.”

It has supporting narrations with similar meaning.

...We ask Allaah تعالى to rectify the Muslims' affairs and to give them an understanding of their true religion, for verily the Muslim when he understands Allaah's religion he magnifies that which Allaah magnifies and he despises that which Allaah despises, but when he is ignorant of Allaah's religion the reality becomes confusing to him in accordance to his level of ignorance. And Allaah is the one whose help is sought.”

🔉🔊 NEW CLASS ALERT 🔉🔊

In the Name of Allāh, The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful.

Allāh Almighty said:

{فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ ٱلشَّهۡرَ فَلۡیَصُمۡهُ}

“Whoever of you is present that month (i.e. Ramaḍhān), must observe fast!”
[Surah Al-Baqarah: 185]

This Āyah contains two commands; one explicit and the other implicit:

Explicitly, Allah is commanding us to fast the month of Ramaḍhān, and implicitly, He is commanding us to learn the requirements of fasting this month so that our fast is valid.

This implicit command exists whenever Allāh & His Messenger command us with any matter; that is because 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻! So you have to know what لا إله إلا الله means before testifying to it, you have to know how to pray before you can begin praying...Likewise, how are you going to fulfil the obligation of fasting if you don't know what it entails?

For this reason, we are pleased to present:

𝙍𝙪𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙍𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙝𝙖‌𝙣

Breaking The Fast With An Odd Number Of Dates - Is It A Sunnah?


Hadeeth 1) Abu Ya'alaa reported in his Musnad (3305) from the Hadeeth of Anas Ibn Maalik - may Allaah be pleased with him - that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - used to like to break his fast with three dates or something which was not cooked.

Note: In the chain of narration of the Hadeeth is 'Abdul-Waahid Ibn Thaabit. Al-Bukhaaree said about him ‘Munkar Al-Ahaadeeth’ (his narrations are rejected).

Al-Imaam Al-Albaanee also declared the Hadeeth extremely weak in 'As-Silsilah Adh-Dha'eefah', Hadeeth No. 966.

Hadeeth 2) Abuu Bakr Ash-Shaafi'ee reported in his 'Fawaaid (1/105)', from Jaabir - may Allaah be pleased with him - that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - used to like to break his fast on fresh dates so long as they were there, and upon dried dates if there were no fresh dates. And he would (also have dates) after a meal and would eat them in odds; three or five or seven.

Note: In the chain of narration there is Al-Faraazee, who is Muhammad Ibn 'Ubaydillaah. Al-Imaam Ahmad said about him 'the people (of Hadeeth) abandoned his narrations.'

Al-Imaam Al-Albaanee declared the Hadeeth also extremely weak in his book 'As-Silsilah Adh-Dha'eefah', Hadeeth No. 1749.

The noble Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-'Uthaymeen - may Allaah have mercy upon him - was asked:

I have heard that the fasting person at the time he breaks his fast must break his fast with an odd number of dates i.e. five or seven dates and so on. So, is this an obligation?

He responded:

This is not an obligation, in fact it is not a Sunnah for a person to break their fast with an odd number; three, five, seven, nine except on the day of ‘Eid, ‘Eidul-Fitr. For it is established that the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - never proceeded for the prayer on the day of ‘Eidul-Fitr unless he had eaten some dates. He would eat an odd number of dates, and besides this, then indeed the Prophet - sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam - did not used to intend that his eating of dates be in odd numbers.

A Beautiful Short Du'aa To Memorise (The Du'aa Of Prophet Yuusuf عليه السلام)

فَاطِرَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ أَنتَ وَلِىِّۦ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةِۖ تَوَفَّنِى مُسْلِمًا وَأَلْحِقْنِى بِٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ


"...the (Only) Creator of the heavens and the earth! You are my Walî (Protector, Helper, Supporter, Guardian, God, Lord.) in this world and in the Hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim (the one submitting to Your Will), and join me with the righteous."
