Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:
“If the slave completely devotes himself to tawhid, fearing other than Allāh will leave his heart. His enemies will become too insignificant to him for him to fear them along with fearing Allāh; rather, he will fear Allāh alone. He will busy himself with love of Allāh, awe of Him, devotion to Him, and reliance upon him. He will view fearing his enemies and pondering over them to be a deficiency of his tawhid.
Surely, Allāh will defend those who believe in Him. Tawhid is the greatest protection from Allāh; whoever enters it is protected.
Some of the Salaf said:
"Whoever fears Allāh, everything will fear him, and whoever does not fear Allāh will fear everything."

فقد أنعمَ الله عليه نعمةً عظيمةً لا يعدِلُها شيء.
Allah has bestowed upon him a tremendous favor to which nothing is equivalent.”

Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:
"Innovation is more beloved to Iblis than disobedience.
This is because the sinner is aware of his disobedience thus he repents.
As for the innovator, he believes what he is upon is obedience (to Allah) thus he never repents."

"You will not ever find a Mubtadia [innovator] except that he loves to hide the texts [proofs from the Qur'ān and Sunnah] which oppose him. He hates those texts, and he hates to show them and their narrations. He also hates conveying them and he hates the one who conveys the proofs.
Just like some of the Salaf said: 'No one ever innovated a Bid'ah except that the sweetness of Hadith was snatched from his heart.'"

The Imām, Shaykh ʿAbd al Azīz ibn Bāz [رحمه الله] said:
“So your brother is the one who advises you, reminds you, and alerts you. Your brother is not the one who gives you no thought, avoids you, or speaks to you with pretty words that lack real truth and sincerity. Rather, your brother, in reality, is the one who advises you, the one who admonishes you, and reminds you. He calls you to Allāh, keeps explaining to you the path to deliverance clearly until you follow it, and warns you about the path to destruction - he keeps explaining to you how evil its end is until you avoid it.”

Waking up Junub in Ramaḍān
‘Ā’ishah and Umm Salamah رضي الله عنها narrated: Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ would wake up in the morning [when it was already Fajr time] whilst in a state of sexual impurity. Then, he would perform ghusl (ritual bath) and fast.
• [Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī (no. 1926) and Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim (no. 1109)]
Explanation of Shaykh ‘Abdul-‘Azīz ibn Bāz رحمه الله:
The ḥadīth of ‘Ā’ishah and what has come in its meaning from the ḥadīth of Umm Salamah both prove that there is nothing wrong with someone who wakes up in the morning while junub (in a state of
sexual impurity) to make ghusl even if it is after the emergence of Fajr.
The fast of this individual is valid and they do not have to make up the days. What is forbidden is having sexual intercourse after the emergence of Fajr. The Prophet would wake up in the morning whilst in a
state of sexual impurity then he would perform ghusl and fast. The wording of Umm Salamah adds: “…and he would not make up the day.”
This is also the case regarding the woman who is menstruating or in the state of post-natal bleeding. If she becomes pure (stops bleeding) in the last part of the night and intends to fast but becomes occupied
with eating the saḥūr (pre-dawn meal) and, thus, delays the ghusl until after the emergence of Fajr then there is nothing wrong with that. However, they
must hasten to perform ghusl before the sunrise so that they can perform the prayer in its correct time.
Likewise, the man in the state of sexual impurity should hasten to perform the ghusl so that they can perform the prayer with the congregation.”
