From The Greatest Thing That Harms You
Al-Imaam Ibnul-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy upon him:
"From the greatest things that harm the person is free time. The soul will never sit idly; rather, the soul will either busy itself with what benefits it or what harms it. This is inevitable."

A Great Cause For The Absence Of Success In One's Life
Ash-Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-'Uthaymeen, may Allaah have mercy upon him:
"The heedlessness of the heart when it comes to the remembrance of Allaah is the cause for failure, wasting time, and the absence of success, just as Allaah said: 'and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our Remembrance, and who follows his own lusts, and whose affair (deeds) has been lost.' [Al-Quraan 18:28]. And the meaning of 'affair' means all of his affairs will result in failure. There is no blessing in it. However, when a person is continuous upon the remembrance of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, with his tongue, heart, and limbs, he will acquire a lot of blessings and good in his life."

"Being firm upon knowledge and faith during the occurrence of trials and doubts is from the greatest of blessings. There are people who have faith during the times of well-being, but when they're put to trial, they apostate. Therefore, it must be known, that a person's firmness upon his faith during trials and doubts is from the greatest of blessings."

Three Things That Can Save You, And Three Things That Can Destory You
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"ثلاث منجيات: خشية الله تعالى في السر والعلانية والعدل في الرضا والغضب والقصد في الفقر والغنى وثلاث مهلكات: هوى متبع وشح مطاع وإعجاب المرء بنفسه."
"Three things can save a person:
1. Fear of Allaah in private and public.
2. Fairness in happiness and anger.
3. Generosity in both poverty and wealth.
And three things can destroy a person:
1. Desires that are followed,
2. Greed that is obeyed.
3. A person being amazed and pleased with themselves."

Benefit 18: Why don't Salafees celebrate the Prophet’s birthday?
ANSWER:
They don't celebrate the Prophet's birthday because:
● There's not a single Āyah in the Qurʿān endorsing this celebration.
● There's not a single ḥadīth from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ endorsing this celebration, whether authentic or inauthentic.
● There's not a single Athar from any of the Companions regarding this celebration, whether authentic or inauthentic.
● The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not celebrate it during his lifetime, nor did any of his Companions or family members establish it for him.
● This celebration was non-existent during the lifetime of the four rightly guided Caliphs (Abū Bakr, ’Umar, ’Uthmān and ’Ali).
● It was non-existent during the lifetime of the four great Imāms (Abū Ḥanīfah, Mālik, Shāfi’ē and Aḥmad).
● It was non-existent during the lifetime of the first three generations; concerning whom the Prophet ﷺ said:
((خيرُ الناس قَرْنِي، ثم الذين يَلُونَهُم، ثم الذين يَلُونَهُم))
“The best generation is my generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them.”
As such, we say as Imām Mālik raḥimahullāh said:
ما لم يكُن يومئذ دِينًا، فلن يكون اليوم دِينًا.
“Whatever was not part of the religion then, will not be part of the religion today.”
💡We know for sure that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not pass away until Allāh had completed the religion and perfected the blessing upon him, as Allāh said:
{الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ دِينًا}
“Today I have perfected for you your religion, and completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as a religion.”
💡And he ﷺ warned us against innovating new practices into the religion, as he ﷺ said:
((مَن أَحدثَ في أَمرِنا هذا ما ليس مِنه، فهو رَدٌّ)).
“Whoever introduces into this matter of ours something that is not part of it, will have it rejected.”
▪️ In summary, those who permit/celebrate the Prophet’s birthday have no evidence whatsoever from the Qurʿān, Sunnah, Consensus, action of the Companions, or correct analogy (Qiyās).
And if you are still in doubt, then please answer the following four questions:
1️⃣ Is celebrating the Prophet's birthday an act of obedience or disobedience?
▪️ If you say it is an act of disobedience, the discussion ends here.
▪️ And if you say it is an act of obedience, then move onto the next question:
2️⃣ Did the Prophet ﷺ know about this act of obedience or was he ignorant of it?
▪️I don't think you will accuse the Prophet ﷺ of ignorance; because this is Kufr. Hence the discussion ends here.
▪️But if you say he knew about it, then we move onto the next question:
3️⃣ If he knew about it, did he ﷺ convey it to his Ummah?
▪️ I don't think you will accuse the Prophet ﷺ of concealing part of the message while Allāh ﷻ has said:
{يَا أَيُّهَا الرَّسُولُ بَلِّغْ مَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَمَا بَلَّغْتَ رِسَالَتَهُ}
“O Messenger, convey what has been sent down to you from your Lord, and if you do not do so, then you have not conveyed His message.”
▪️ And if you say he conveyed it, then we say, where is the evidence?
If you produce some evidence, then we move onto the final question:
4️⃣ Is it conceivable that first three generations of this Ummah were ignorant of these evidences while you are more knowledgeable than them?! Or did they know about it and avoid acting upon it, but you were guided to act upon it?!
-
We ask Allāh ﷻ, Lord of the Great Throne, to guide us all to the truth and the straight path. May Allāh’s peace and blessings be upon our beloved Prophet and Messenger, Muḥammad ibn ’Abdullah, his family, his companions, his wives, and whoever follows his guidance until the Day of Judgment.

How To Dispell The Shaytaan From You In The Prayer
'Uthmaan Ibn Abee Al-'Aas, may Allaah be pleased with him, reported that he came to Allaah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said:
"O Allaah's Messenger, the Shaytaan intervenes between me and my prayer and my reciting of the Qur'aan, and he confuses me. Thereupon Allaah's Messenger (ﷺ) said:, 'That is (the doing of a) Shaytaan (devil) who is known as Khanzab, and when you perceive its effect, seek refuge with Allaah from it and spit dryly three times to your left.' I did that, and Allaah dispelled that from me."
