A message from our teacher

*Clarification:*

The human will never reach perfection, no matter how much he tries.

I try my best to listen to, and edit mistakes on class recordings before posting them out, but despite this, some mistakes may pass me by.

An example of that is in this week's class (class 10):

12 minutes into the audio, while speaking about depending on people who have the ability to benefit or harm, I mentioned it being minor shirk, but a few seconds later I go on to say its major shirk.
The latter was a slip of the tongue; i was supposed to say minor shirk - not major.

I ask Allah to forgive all my mistakes, those I'm aware of as well those which I'm unaware of.

The Status Of Dutifulness To The Mother

ʿAtaaʾ ibn Yasaar:

"A man once came to Ibn ʿAbbaas and said, 'I proposed to a woman and she refused to marry me, then someone else proposed to her and she wanted to marry him; so I became jealous and killed her. Can I repent from this?' [Ibn ʿAbbaas] asked, 'Is your mother alive?' He replied, 'No.' So he said, 'Repent to Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, and worship Him as much as you can.'

ʿAtaaʾ said, 'So I went and asked Ibn ʿAbbaas, ‘Why did you ask him if his mother was alive?’ He replied, ‘I do not know of any action that brings one closer to Allaah than dutifulness to the mother.'”

(Al-Bukhaaree, Al-Adab al-Mufrad, Hadeeth No. 4. Graded 'saheeh' by Shaykh Al-Albaanee)

⏩ It Is Not Medically Correct That When A Person Breaks His Fast He Has Dinner Right Away As How Many People Do [Nowadays] – Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen

فائدة صحية

قال الشيخ ابن عثيمين رحمه الله:

ليس من الطب أن الإنسان إذا أفطر يتعشى مباشرة كما يفعل بعض الناس.

بل الطب يقتضي أن تعطي المعدة الشيء القليل لأنها خالية.

شرح رياض الصالحين ٢٨٩/٥

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 many people do [nowadays]. However, what is medically necessary [here] is that you give your stomach a small amount since it has become empty.”

[Sharhu Riyadhis Saliheen (289/5)]. End quote.

Don't forget, if you're able, try and fast the three white days of the month which is from the Sunnah.

The white days (Al Ayyam al-Beed) will fall on:

13th – Thursday 18th April
14th – Friday 19th April
15th – Saturday 20th April

'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'As (May Allaah be pleased with them) reported:
The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said, "Observing Saum (fasting) on three days of every month is equivalent to a full month's fasting."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

The Imaam's Forehead Should Touch The Ground Before You Leave The Standing Position

From 'Abdullaah ibn Yazeed al-Khatmi Al-Ansaaree (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: "'Al-Baraa ibn 'Aazib - and he is not a liar - narrated to us saying;

Whenever the Messenger of Allaah, salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, said 'sami'allaahu liman hamidah, we (his companions) would not leave the standing position for the sujuud position until the Messenger of Allaah, salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, had placed his forehead on the ground, it was then that we would prostrate after him."

[Saheeh Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim]

Commenting of this Hadeeth, Shaykh Al-Albaanee (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: "The majority of those who pray do not follow what this Hadeeth contains in not leaving the standing position until the imaam puts his forhead and nose on ground. I do not exempt anyone even those who hasten to follow the sunnah.

"(People make this mistake) because of their ignorance of (this Hadeeth) or because of lack of attention to it..."

[Silsilatus-Saheehah, Vol. 6, Pgs. 225-226]

The Religion Of Islaam Is Appropriate For Every Time, Place And Condition

Allaah says:

لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ

"To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight."

[Al-Quraan 81:28]

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-'Uthaymeen:

"Here, the Arabic noun for the verb used is اِسْتِقَامَة (istiqaamah) which means 'moderation.' And there is nothing more moderate or just than the justice found within Allaah's Legislated religion. Previous legislations were suitable for earlier nations, appropriate for their time, place, and circumstances. Likewise, after the mission of the Messenger Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم), the Legislation he brought is suitable and applicable to those to whom he was sent – everyone from the beginning of his mission until the end of this world.

There is a well-known saying in our religion: The religion of Islaam is suitable and ensures the well-being of every time, place, and circumstance. When people stick to it, Allaah corrects the affairs of creation.

Consider that a person is instructed to pray standing. If he is unable to stand, then sitting, and if unable to sit, he may pray lying down. In this way, the religion is suitable and easily applied — and progressive — according to the circumstances of each individual. This religion is appropriate for every time, place, and condition.

Similarly, someone who washes for prayer may use water if he is able or has it. Otherwise, he may use clean sand or even pray without washing at all. This is because Allaah's religious Legislation, all of it, is based on moderation and justice. There is no unfairness, discrimination, oppression, strictness or hardship in it. For this reason, Allaah refers to it as 'the straight path'.

The opposite of this istiqaamah, this moderation or 'straightness,' is deviation – deviation to the side of extremism and intolerance or deviation to the side of negligence and slackness. So people follow three different paths regarding the religion of Allaah:

1) the path of extremism, intolerance, or extravagance;

2) the path of negligence and carelessness,

3) the path of moderation between the two extremes. This third path is the 'the straight path', the praiseworthy manner of following the religion of Allaah.

As for the first and second paths, extremism and negligence, both lead to destruction. They destroy their followers with excessiveness or negligence. For example, the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) forbade people from going to the extreme of intolerance and harshness; he said:

هَلَكَ الْمُتَنَطِّعُونَ ، هَلَكَ الْمُتَنَطِّعُونَ ، هَلَكَ الْمُتَنَطِّعُونَ

'The harsh ones are destroyed, the harsh ones are destroyed, the harsh ones are destroyed.'

[Saheeh Muslim, No. 2670]

Imaam An-Nawawee, in his explanation of Saheeh Muslim, explained the Arabic word in the Hadeeth المُتَنَطِّعُوْن (al-Mutanatti'uun), to mean, 'The extremists who go beyond the limits in their statements and actions.' In another Hadeeth collected by Muslim, the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ رَفِيقٌ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ ، وَيُعْطِي عَلَى الرِّفْقِ مَا لا يُعْطِي عَلَى الْعُنْفِ

'Indeed, Allaah is gentle and loves gentleness. He gives due to gentleness that which he does not give due to harshness.'

[Saheeh Muslim, No. 2593]

Harshness brings about hardship and causes people to leave the religion of Allaah (عز و جل). The other extreme, that of negligence and carelessness, has also been criticized. Allaah says, describing the hypocrites:

...وَإِذَا قَامُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ قَامُوا۟ كُسَالَىٰ يُرَآءُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ وَلَا يَذْكُرُونَ ٱللَّهَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا

'...And when they stand up for the prayer, they stand with laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not remember Allaah but little.'

[Al-Quraan 4:142]

The religion of Allaah is one of moderation, between extremism and negligence, and this is why Allaah says:

لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ

"To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight."

[Al-Quraan 81:28]
