[A Word Regarding the Maktabah Salafiyyah in Britain and the Salafi Mashayikh That Oversee It] Shaykh Nizar bin Hashim al-Abbas—may Allah preserve him—20th Ramadhan 1446.h]

(An old but Renewed statement)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

[A Word Regarding the Maktabah Salafiyyah in Britain and the Salafi Mashayikh That Oversee It]

All praise is due to Allah, Lord of all the worlds, and peace, blessings, and salutation be upon His Messenger, his family, and his followers.

To proceed: Maktabah Salafiyyah in Britain (Birmingham) is a well-known Salafi place and centre, recognized by the Senior Scholars of the Sunnah.

Amongst them are Mashayikh of Sunnah and students of knowledge who uphold it and carry out the blessed Salafi call. These individuals are also known to the senior scholars of the Sunnah.

Among them are a group I personally know, who were with us in the Prophet's City of Madinah about thirty years ago, attending the gatherings of our Shaykh, the 'Allamah, the scholar, the fatherly figure, Rabee‘—may Allah preserve him—who adhere to the Salafi path.

This was despite the trials and tribulations of the Qutubiyyah and Haddadiyyah (which were at their peak at the time).

By Allah’s grace and favour —and all praise is due to Allah— they stood firm behind the Senior Scholars of the Sunnah with insight and steadfastness.

When they returned to the lands of the West, they undertook the task of disseminating the Salafi call, connecting people to the Scholars, remaining steadfast on the path of the Sunnah and the way of the Senior Scholars—may Allah reward them with good— for what they have put forth and exerted from effort.

Thus, it is incumbent upon us to preserve their unity, maintain the cohesion of their ranks and united word, and recognize their precedence (and their years and older age), their steadfastness, and their adherence to the path of the Senior Scholars in upholding the truth, calling to it, and standing firm during trials.

Let us address them and mention them with the finest manners and expressions.

Let us unite the people’s word around them and with them upon the truth, and let us assist them upon every good deed we are capable of.

I ask Allah to guide everyone to what He loves and is pleased with, to protect us from trials, and to unite our word upon the truth in every matter.

Dear brothers and sisters in Canada,

Be extremely careful when paying zakat (for those required to). Zakat is restricted to 8 criteria of people. The Ikhwani cartel in Canada wish to envision a “new model” for funnelling (siphoning) the zakat of Muslim in Canada towards their causes and ideals. The vague, political speak employed in this request is typical of their modus operandi. They state that “Zakat was not meant to be only a means for alleviating poverty, but also an economic tool to invest in community”. Zakat is not an economic slush fund. Many of their like-minded masajid and centres hold it permissible to use zakat to pay Imam salaries or build masjid extensions, fund political or extremists organisations, a wide variety of “economic investments” etc.

إِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَاتُ لِلْفُقَرَاء وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَالْعَامِلِينَ عَلَيْهَا وَالْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَفِي الرِّقَابِ وَالْغَارِمِينَ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ فَرِيضَةً مِّنَ اللّهِ وَاللّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ ﴿٦٠﴾
Zakah expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy and for those employed to collect [zakah] and for bringing hearts together [for Islam] and for freeing captives [or slaves] and for those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the [stranded] traveler - an obligation [imposed] by Allah. And Allah is Knowing and Wise. (9:60)

Th noble scholar, the late Imam, Al-ʿAllāmah ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn ʿAbdullāh ibn Bāz was asked about the using zakat to finish a masjid and in it he addressed the elegible recipients of zakat: https://www.troid.org/using-zakah-monies-to-finish-a-masjid/

Be sure when paying zakat that the organisation you entrust will fulfil the requirement according to the shar’iah. Remember that they are being deputised by you to distribute your zakah. It is your responsibility to ensure that those you deputise fulfil this task correctly.

Tremendous Hadīth Regarding The 23rd Night of Ramadan and Laylat al-Qadr Possibly Being Tonight.

Muhammad b. Ibrahīm narrated to us, from Ibn Abdullah b. Unays Al-Juhani, from his father, who said:

I said to the Messenger of Allah: "I have a home in the desert where I live and pray, by the grace of Allah. But command me regarding a night (on which I should come to this mosque (i.e. Masjid al-Nabawī)."

He replied: "Come on the twenty-third night."

I (Muhammad ibn Ibrahim, a narrator) asked his son, "How did your father act?"

He replied, "He used to enter the mosque after performing the ‘Asr prayer and would not leave for any need until he had performed the Fajr prayer. When he had prayed Fajr, he would find his riding beast waiting at the door of the mosque, mount it, and return to his home in the desert." [Sunan Abī Dawūd 1380]

[Q]: If a person spreads his prayer mat to preemptively save his spot (in the masjid), is it permissible for one to remove it and pray in that spot?

Some background:
This is a prevalent error observed in masājid around the world - reserving preserved spots in the masjid by throwing down a prayer mat (or some other belongs) to hold a preferred spot in the masjid. Here, Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiiyah and Imām Ibn Bāz explain the impermissibly of this. However, it should be noted as the great Imām, Ibn Taymiyyah states that in interacting with people who do this: "One should also take precautions that his actions do not stipulate the occurrence of that which is even more objectionable [in the form of fighting, screaming, and shouting]. And Allāh knows best." So it is important to smile, take people by the hand, and explain to them the Sunnah in this regard as explained by the great scholars. If someone brushes this off, perhaps seek out an elder to advise him or the imām. Escalating the situation into a major disturbance may bring more harm to the parties involved and the other worshippers. Wisdom and tact are needed. We must uphold the Sunnah but with wisdom and fair preaching.

Excerpted from the forthcoming publication (troid.org) entitled: Islamic Rulings on Prayer Mats and Praying in Shoes

Rulings from Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah, Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ al-ʿUthaymīn, Imām Nāsir al-Dīn al-Albānī, Imām ʿAbd al-Azīz bin Bāz, The Permanent Committee for Islamic Research and Fatāwá
