💎 Don’t Let too Much Time Pass without Visiting Allah’s House if You Are Healthy & Wealthy

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reports from Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ):

إنَّ اللهَ تعالى يقولُ : إنَّ عبدًا أصحَحتُ لهُ جسمَهُ ، ووسَّعتُ عليهِ في مَعيشتِهِ ، تمضي عليهِ خمسةُ أعوامٍ لا يَفِدُ إليَّ لمَحرومٌ

Allah, the Exalted, says: "Indeed, if I grant good health to a servant and provide him with ample sustenance, and five years pass without him coming to visit Me, he is indeed deprived."

[Graded Sahih by Al Albānī in Sahih al-Jami' (1909)] collected by At-Tabarani in "Al-Mu'jam Al-Awsat" (486), Ibn Hibban (3703), and Al-Bayhaqi (10695) with slight variations.

[THE STRANGEST OF THE STRANGERS]

I wanted to share the translation of a beautiful benefit that was sent to me last week by my beloved brother and elder, Shaykh Abu Muhammad Al Maghribi (حفظه الله ورعاه):

Imam Abu Bakr Muhammad b. Al Hussayn Al-Ajurri (d. 360 AH رحمه الله) said:

" ﺃﻏﺮﺏ ﺍﻟﻐﺮﺑﺎﺀ ﻓﻲ ﻭﻗﺘﻨﺎ ﻫﺬﺍ : ﻣﻦ ﺃﺧﺬ ﺑﺎﻟﺴﻨﻦ ﻭﺻﺒﺮ ﻋﻠﻴﻬﺎ،
ﻭﺣﺬﺭ ﺍﻟﺒﺪﻉ ﻭﺻﺒﺮ ﻋﻨﻬﺎ، ﻭﺍﺗﺒﻊ ﺁﺛﺎﺭ ﻣﻦ ﺳﻠﻒ ﻣﻦ ﺃﺋﻤﺔ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻠﻤﻴﻦ، ﻭﻋﺮﻑ ﺯﻣﺎﻧﻪ، ﻭﺷﺪﺓ ﻓﺴﺎﺩﻩ، ﻭﻓﺴﺎﺩ ﺃﻫﻠﻪ،

"The strangest of strangers in our time is the one who adheres to the Sunnah and is patient with it, exercises caution against innovations and is patient in avoiding them, follows the footsteps of the predecessors from the leaders of the Muslims, understands his time and the severity of its corruption and the corruption of its people.

فاﺷﺘﻐﻞ ﺑﺈﺻﻼﺡ ﺷﺄﻥﻧﻔﺴﻪ، ﻭﻣﻦ ﺣﻔﻆ ﺟﻮﺍﺭﺣﻪ، ﻭﺗﺮﻙ ﺍﻟﺨﻮﺽ ﻓﻴﻤﺎ ﻻ ﻳﻌﻨﻴﻪ، ﻭﻋﻤﻞ ﻓﻲ ﺇﺻﻼﺡﻛﺴﺮﺗﻪ، ﻭﻛﺎﻥ ﻃﻠﺒﻪ ﻣﻦ ﺍﻟﺪﻧﻴﺎ ﻣﺎ ﻓﻴﻪ ﻛﻔﺎﻳﺘﻪ، ﻭﺗﺮﻙ ﺍﻟﻔﻀﻞ ﺍﻟﺬﻱ ﻳﻄﻐﻴﻪ، ﻭﺩﺍﺭﻯ ﺃﻫﻞ ﺯﻣﺎﻧﻪ، ﻭﻟﻢ ﻳﺪﺍﻫﻨﻬﻢ، ﻭﺻﺒﺮ ﻋﻠﻰ ﺫﻟﻚ،

Thus, he occupies himself with rectifying his own affairs, safeguarding his limbs, refraining from delving into what does not concern him, working on mending his shortcomings, seeking from the world what suffices him, avoiding excessive wealth that leads to transgression, diplomatically accommodating the people of his time without compromising, and enduring all of that with patience.

ﻓﻬﺬﺍ ﻏﺮﻳﺐ، ﻭﻗﻞ ﻣﻦ ﻳﺄﻧﺲ ﺇﻟﻴﻪ ﻣﻦ ﺍﻟﻌﺸﻴﺮﺓ ﻭﺍﻹﺧﻮﺍﻥ، ﻭﻻ ﻳﻀﺮﻩ ﺫﻟﻚ ".

Such a person is a stranger, and few among his kin and brothers would feel comfortable with him, but this does not harm him."

🆕 Allah Tests Us So that West Can Grow: Reframing Hardship & Trauma with Sound Islamic Beliefs

🖊️Imam Ibn Al Qayyim (d. 751 AH رحمه الله) said [in al Fawā’id]:

• إِذَا جَرَى عَلَى الْعَبْدِ مَقْدُورٌ يَكْرَهُهُ؛ فَلَهُ فِيهِ سِتَّةُ مَشَاهِدَ:

"If a servant experiences a predestined event that he dislikes, he has six perspectives regarding it:

أَحَدُهَا: مَشْهَدُ التَّوْحِيدِ، وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الَّذِي قَدَّرَهُ وَشَاءَهُ وَخَلَقَهُ، وَمَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ كَانَ، وَمَا لَمْ يَشَأْ لَمْ يَكُنْ.

1️⃣ First: The perspective of monotheism, recognizing that Allah is the one who decreed, willed, and created it. Whatever Allah wills happens, and whatever He does not will does not happen.

الثَّانِي: مَشْهَدُ الْعَدْلِ، وَأَنَّهُ مَاضٍ فِيهِ حُكْمُهُ، عَدْلٌ فِيهِ قَضَاؤُهُ.

2️⃣ Second: The perspective of justice, recognizing that His judgment is carried out in it, and His decree is just.

الثَّالِثُ: مَشْهَدُ الرَّحْمَةِ، وَأَنَّ رَحْمَتَهُ فِي هَذَا الْمَقْدُورِ غَالِبَةٌ لِغَضَبِهِ وَانْتِقَامِهِ، وَرَحْمَتُهُ حَشْوُهُ.

3️⃣ Third: The perspective of mercy, recognizing that His mercy in this predestined event outweighs His wrath and vengeance, and His mercy permeates it.

الرَّابِعُ: مَشْهَدُ الْحِكْمَةِ، وَأَنَّ حِكْمَتَهُ سُبْحَانَهُ اقْتَضَتْ ذَلِكَ، لَمْ يُقَدِّرْهُ سُدًى وَلَا قَضَاهُ عَبَثًا.

4️⃣Fourth: The perspective of wisdom, recognizing that His wisdom, Glorified be He, necessitated this. He did not decree it in vain, nor did He judge it arbitrarily.

الْخَامِسُ: مَشْهَدُ الْحَمْدِ، وَأَنَّ لَهُ سُبْحَانَهُ الْحَمْدَ التَّامَّ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ وُجُوهِهِ.

5️⃣Fifth: The perspective of praise, recognizing that He, Glorified be He, deserves complete praise for it from all aspects.

السَّادِسُ: مَشْهَدُ الْعُبُودِيَّةِ، وَأَنَّهُ عَبْدٌ مَحْضٌ مِنْ كُلِّ وَجْهٍ، تَجْرِي عَلَيْهِ أَحْكَامُ سَيِّدِهِ وَأَقْضِيَتُهُ بِحُكْمِ كَوْنِهِ مِلْكَهُ وَعَبْدَهُ،

6️⃣ Sixth: The perspective of servitude, recognizing that he is purely a servant in every respect, subjected to the judgments and decrees of his Master due to his status as His property and servant.

فَيُصَرِّفُهُ تَحْتَ أَحْكَامِهِ الْقَدَرِيَّةِ كَمَا يُصَرِّفُهُ تَحْتَ أَحْكَامِهِ الدِّينِيَّةِ؛ فَهُوَ مَحَلٌّ لِجَرَيَانِ هَذِهِ الْأَحْكَامِ عَلَيْهِ.

He is directed under His (universal) decrees (of predestination) as he is directed under His religious commands; he is a locus for the operation of these judgments upon him."

🆕💎We Praise & Thank Allah for Our Unity & Ask Him to Protect us from Potential Causes of Division (1 of 3)

🎙️ [Important Measures for Maintaining Unity between Ahl Al-Sunnah]

Shaykh Dr. ‘Arafāt b. Hasan al Muhammadi (حفظه الله ورعاه) was recently asked a number of important questions about the typical kinds of differences that commonly threaten to split the ranks of Ahl al-Sunnah in various lands; he responded:

"الأسبابُ للأسفِ تتعلّقُ بحظوظِ النفسِ، وهذه حقيقةٌ مرّةٌ وصعبةٌ. أصحابُ منهجٍ واحدٍ ويرجعونَ إلى صراطٍ مستقيمٍ يقوده علماءُ كبارٌ من فضلِ الله عز وجل، يقودونَ هذا المنهجَ ونرجعُ إليهم.

Unfortunately, the causes are related to personal interests, and this is a bitter and difficult truth. Those who follow one Manhaj (methodology) and return to the straight path, led by great scholars who, by the grace of Allah, guide this methodology, and we turn to them.

وعلماؤُنا هم علماءُ هؤلاءِ المختلفين، لكن دخلَ الشيطانُ وضخّمَ الأخطاءَ وحصلَ التجاوزُ، ولا يتغافلُ الأخُ عن أخيهِ.

Our scholars are the scholars of those who differ, but the devil has interfered, magnifying the mistakes, and transgressions have occurred. One brother does not overlook the other.

وفي الحقيقةِ، لا علاقةَ بالمنهجِ لهذهِ الأمورِ، لا علاقةَ.

In reality, these matters have nothing to do with the Manhaj (methodology).

لأنّنا قد جربنا وسمعنا ورأينا ودخلنا في كثيرٍ من هذه المشاكلِ إلا من رحم الله.

We have experienced, heard, seen, and been involved in many of these issues, except for those whom Allah has shown mercy.

وقد يكونُ صادقاً في ذكرِ بعضِ الأخطاءِ، ومع ذلك لو كان صادقاً في ذكرِ بعضِ الأخطاءِ ولو كانت منهجيّةً، يكون العلاجُ لها خاطئاً لا يُحسن أن يُعالجَ.

Someone may be honest in mentioning some mistakes, even if they are methodological, but remedying them might be done incorrectly.

وهذا الذي أقوله قد سمعت مشايخنا الكبار يصرحون به بل زادوا أن من أعظم أسباب الخلاف حب الزعامة.

This is what I have heard our senior scholars clearly state. Moreover, they have added that one of the greatest causes of disagreement is the love of leadership.

بعضُ الشبابِ يريدُ أن يترأسَ، وهذا مرضٌ قد يكونُ خفياً وقد يكونُ ظاهراً، فيريدُ أن يترأسَ، فإذا لم يُعطَ هذه المكانةَ ادّعى الخلافَ، وادّعى أن هناك أسباباً لا بد أن نُعالجها، وأن فلاناً عنده، وفلاناً عنده.

Some young people want to take the lead, which is a disease that can be hidden or apparent. They want to lead, and if they are not given this position, they claim there is a disagreement and assert that there are issues that need to be addressed, saying this person has this and that person has that.

وبعضُهم يخوضُ في أمورِ السياسةِ، ويأتي طرفٌ آخرُ ويخوضُ في طرفٍ آخرَ، هذا يتطرفُ في طرفٍ، وهذا في طرفٍ، ويجعلونَها مسائلَ منهجيّةً، وهي لا علاقةَ لها بالمنهجِ، إنما هي سياسةٌ وكلامٌ فارغٌ.

Some of them get involved in politics, and another party gets involved in another side, one extreme in one direction, and another in the opposite, making these methodological issues when they have nothing to do with the methodology. It is merely politics and empty talk.

وبعدَ ذلك، يبدأ الحربُ أو تبدأ الحروبُ بالأسماء المستعارة، هذا يكتبُ باسمٍ مستعارٍ ويهاجمُ، وذاك يكتبُ ويدافعُ ويهاجمُ تارةً وتارةً.

After that, the war begins, or wars begin under pseudonyms. One writes under a pseudonym attacking, and another writes defending at times and attacking at other times.

لهذا كونوا عقلاءَ، احترموا هذه الدعوةَ، ما كان من حظوظ النفسِ اجعلوه تحت أقدامكم، احترموا علماءَكم الذين تعبوا وهم ينصحون، وبُحّت أصواتُهم وهم يُذكّرونكم بالاجتماع والتآلف وعدم الاختلاف.

So, be wise and respect this da’wah. Whatever is related to personal interests, put it under your feet. Respect your scholars who have labored and have been advising you, their voices strained as they remind you to unite and avoid disagreements.

ادرسوا كيف تعالجونَ الأخطاءَ، اتركوا العجلةَ. إذا ما استفدنا من نصائح العلماء ورجعنا إليهم، سنستفيدُ من مَن؟

Study how to address mistakes, avoid haste. If we do not benefit from the advice of the scholars and return to them, who else will we benefit from?

🆕💎We Praise & Thank Allah for Our Unity & Ask Him to Protect us from Potential Causes of Division (2 of 3)

لهذا أقول، احرصوا أشدَّ الحرصِ أن تكونوا على كلمةٍ سواءٍ، منهجُكم واحدٌ، مرجعيتُكم واحدةٌ، طلبُكم للعلمِ واحدٌ، فلا يدخلُ الشيطانُ بينكم ولا يُفرّقكم.

Therefore, I say, be very careful to be on a united word. Your methodology is one, your reference is one, your pursuit of knowledge is one, so do not let the devil come between you and divide you.

وقد يقول قائلٌ: كيف نعالجُ هذه الأخطاءَ؟ كيف نتخلصُ؟

And someone may ask, how do we address these mistakes? How do we get rid of them?

قد حصلَ ما حصلَ، انشغلوا بالعلمِ كأنّكم لا تسمعونَ شيئاً، والانشغالُ يكون بحقٍّ وحقيقةٍ.

What has happened has happened. Engage in knowledge as if you hear nothing, and truly and sincerely engage.

أسكتوا الصغارَ من الشبابِ والنشءِ، أبعدوهم عن الخوضِ، المسألة ترجعُ إلى أهل العلمِ، إذا كنتم صادقين خذوا بنصائح العلماء بجدٍّ وصدقٍ، ليس مجردَ كلامٍ على اللسانِ، لا تطبيقَ، لا عملَ، لا جديةَ في الصلح.

Silence the young and the youth, keep them from delving into the matter; it is for the scholars. If you are sincere, take the advice of the scholars seriously and truthfully, not just words on the tongue with no application, no action, no seriousness in reconciliation.

كفوا الأقلامَ والألسنَ عن أيِّ خوضٍ في الخلافِ، وتضرعوا بين يدي الله، وأكثروا من الدعاءِ، وتعوّذوا بالله كما كان النبي عليه الصلاة والسلام علّمنا أن نتعوّذَ بالله من الفتن، وتنازلْ.

Restrain your pens and tongues from any involvement in disagreements. Supplicate to Allah and increase your supplication, seek refuge in Allah from trials as the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught us to seek refuge in Allah from trials. Stand down.

وضعَ حظوظَ النفسِ تحتَ قدمك، وتذكرْ قولَ يوسف عليه الصلاة والسلام، وقد قالها النبي عليه الصلاة والسلام في فتح مكةَ: "لا تثريبَ عليكم اليوم، يغفرُ الله لكم وهو أرحم الراحمين."

Put personal interests under your feet and remember the words of Yusuf (peace be upon him) and as the Prophet (peace be upon him) said at the conquest of Mecca: "No reproach upon you today. May Allah forgive you. He is the Most Merciful of the merciful."

ليتنا نستفيدُ من هذه النصائحِ، هذه نصائحُ علمائنا، ما أنا والله إلا ناقلٌ لكلامِ أهلِ العلمِ.

If only we could benefit from this advice, the advice of our scholars. By Allah, I am only conveying the words of the scholars.”

[Loving Authority & Prominence]

قال: كيف نتعامل مع من عنده ضعفٌ في الأخلاقِ ويرى في نفسِه حبَّ التصدرِ مع العلم أنه يتبنى المنهجَ السلفيَّ؟

Question: How do we deal with someone who has character weakness and a desire for prominence, knowing that they follow the Salafi methodology?

هذا يرجعُنا للسؤال الرابع أو الخامس عندما ذكرنا سببَ الخلافات بين السلفيين، هذا من الأسباب، هذا داءٌ، هذا من الأسباب وهو داءٌ مرضٌ يحبُّ التصدرَ وعنده أخلاقٌ سيئةٌ.

Answer: This brings us back to the fourth or fifth question when we mentioned the causes of disagreements among the Salafis. This is one of the causes; it is a disease. This is one of the reasons and it is a disease, a sickness. They love to be prominent and they have bad character.

فنقول له: ربِّ نفسَك على الأخلاقِ الحسنةِ، اتقِ اللهَ، لا تُفرقْ إخوانكَ، وللأسف، هذا أدبٌ عظيمٌ نحن فقدناه، وهو أننا أن السلفَ كانوا يحبونَ أن يهضموا أنفسهم، لكن لما كان السلفُ يحبونَ أن يهضموا أنفسهم، لماذا؟ لأنهم تعلموا وتأدبوا، فأدبهم العلمُ، نحن ما تأدبنا، ما عرفنا العلمَ، لهذا لما ما عرفنا العلمَ أردنا التصدرَ. أردنا أن نحكمَ، أردنا الزعامةَ،

So we say to them, train yourself in good character, fear Allah, and do not divide your brothers. Unfortunately, this is a great etiquette we have lost. The Salaf loved to humble themselves. Why? Because they learned and were disciplined. Knowledge disciplined them. We have not been disciplined; we do not know knowledge. That is why, when we did not know knowledge, we wanted prominence, we wanted to rule, we wanted leadership.”

🆕💎We Praise & Thank Allah for Our Unity & Ask Him to Protect us from Potential Causes of Division (3 of 3)

وتذكر الحديثَ المشهورَ لما قال النبي عليه الصلاة والسلام في ذلكم العبد الذي أثنى عليه الأشعثُ الأغبرُ الذي أخذ بعنانِ فرسه أشعثَ رأسه مغبرّاً قدماه، قال: إن كان في الحراسةِ كان في الحراسةِ، وإن كان في الساقةِ كان في الساقةِ، إن استأذنَ لم يُؤذنْ له، وإن شفعَ لم يُشفعْ.

Remember the famous hadith when the Prophet (peace be upon him) spoke about that servant who was praised: "That disheveled, dusty man who holds the reins of his horse. His hair is disheveled, his feet are dusty. If he is in the vanguard, he is in the vanguard. If he is in the rear guard, he is in the rear guard. If he asks for permission, he is not granted it. If he intercedes, his intercession is not accepted."

فأثنى على هذا العبدِ الصالحِ التقيِّ النقيِّ، لا يعرفه أحدٌ، ولا يُبالي أين يكونُ، أهم شيءٍ يخدم الإسلامَ في الساقةِ في الحراسةِ، مع أنه قد يستأذنُ لا يُؤذنْ له، يشفعُ لا يُشفعْ، وهو عند الله عظيمٌ، لكن قد يُفتن الإنسانُ بحبِّ التصدرِ.

He praised this righteous, pious servant who is unknown and does not care where he is as long as he serves Islam, whether in the rear guard or in the vanguard. Even if he asks for permission, he is not granted it, or if he intercedes, his intercession is not accepted, but he is great in the sight of Allah.

ويُصابُ بهذا المرضِ فيُفتنُ ويكون من المفتونين، وزد إلى ذلك أنه معجبٌ بنفسه وكأنه ليس به مرضٌ، وهو مليءٌ بالأمراض. أرجعوا إلى الجواب الأول، هو له علاقةٌ بذلك.

However, a person may be tested by a love for prominence and afflicted by this disease, becoming one of the tempted. Add to this that he is amazed with himself, as if he has no illness, while he is full of diseases. So, refer back to the first answer, as it is related to this.

[Compelling Others to Take a Position Against Other Salafis]

السؤال التاسع: ما حكمُ من يُلزمُ الأخوةَ بهجرِ بعضِ الأخوةِ السلفيين الذين وقعوا في بعض الأخطاءِ المنهجيةِ؟ فيلزموننا ببيانِ الموقفِ منهم، فإن لم تُبينْ وتأخذْ موقفاً يُلحقونك بهم، فيتعاملون معنا ومعهم معاملةَ المبتدعِ، وبدون نصيحةٍ مع العلم أنهم لا يرجعونَ إلى المشايخِ السلفيينَ لعلاجِ الأمورِ.

Question 9: What is the ruling on those who compel brothers to boycott some Salafi brothers who have made some methodological mistakes, insisting we take a stance against them? If we don't take a stance, they associate us with them and treat us as innovators without any advice, even though they don't refer to the Salafi scholars to resolve these issues.

هذا هو الداءُ، السؤال الذي قبله المرضُ هو التصدرُ، وهنا الداءُ لا يرجعون إلى المشايخِ ويتصدرونَ في الأحكامِ، يُحذّرُ ويبدّعُ ويلحقُ فلاناً بفلانٍ، وهذا أيضاً له علاقةٌ بذاك الجواب الذي قد مرَّ، كيف نعالج الخلاف بين السلفيين.

Answer: “This is the disease. The previous question was about the love for prominence, and here the issue is that they do not refer to the scholars and take it upon themselves to make judgments, warning against, labeling, and grouping people together. This is also related to the previous answer on how to address disagreements among Salafis.

فهؤلاء يُنصّبونَ أنفسهم ليحكموا على السلفيين ويمتحنونهم. فقد أجبت على هذا السؤال، والذي سبقه بالسؤال الرابع والخامس، عندما ذكرت كيف نعالج الخلافات بين السلفيين.

These people set themselves up to judge Salafis and test them. I have already answered this question and the previous one in the fourth or fifth question when I mentioned how to resolve disagreements among Salafis.”

Sufyan al-Thawri (رحمه الله) said:

"إيّاكَ أن تخونَ مؤمنًا، فمن خانَ مؤمنًا فقد خانَ الله ورسوله،

"Avoid betraying a believer, for whoever betrays a believer has betrayed Allah and His Messenger.

وإذا أحببتَ أخاكَ في الله؛ فابذل له نفسك ومالك،

If you love your brother for Allah, then offer him yourself and your wealth.

وإيّاك والخصومات والجِدال والمِراء، فإنّك تصيرُ ظلومًا خوّانًا أثيمًا،

Beware of disputes, arguments, and quarreling, for you will become oppressive, treacherous, and sinful.

وعليك بالصبر في المواطن كلّها، فإنّ الصبر يجرّ إلى البرّ، والبرّ يجرّ إلى الجنة."

Be patient in all situations, for patience leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise."

Hilyat al-Awliya [7/82]

‎💎 Summarized Key Points of a Lofty Advice from Shaykh Rabī’ (حفظه الله ورفع قدره) on Preserving Unity (followed by full text of the advice):

‎- A Warning against internal conflicts among Salafis, exploited by people of falsehood.

‎- An advice on maintaining brotherhood for Allah's sake and fostering love and cooperation in righteousness & piety.

‎- An emphasis on eliminating divisive behaviors that have infiltrated Ahl al-Sunnah.

‎- Ahl al-Sunnah are targeted by deviant groups because they expose their mistakes and warn against them.

‎- These groups strive to divide and weaken the united Ahl al-Sunnah globally through deceit and plots.

‎- Urging vigilance, learning from past events, maintaining unity, and cultivating a spirit of love and brotherhood, especially among the youth.

‎- Making du’ā for forgiveness and unity, noting that current conflicts among Salafis are incited by enemies of their methodology.

‎🎙️ Text of the advice:

‎وَأُوصِيكُمْ بِالأُخُوَّةِ فِي اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَالتَّحَابِّ فِيهِ وَالتَّعَاوُنِ عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَى وَالْقَضَاءِ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْمَظَاهِرِ الْقَبِيحَةِ الَّتِي سَرَّبَهَا إِلَى صُفُوفِ أَهْلِ السُّنَّةِ وَمَزَّقَهُمْ بِهَا، بَارَكَ اللهُ فِيكُمْ، يُحَارِبُونَ هَذِهِ الْمَظَاهِرَ.

‎I advise you to maintain brotherhood for the sake of Allah, to love each other for His sake, and to cooperate in righteousness and piety. Work together to eliminate these ugly manifestations that have infiltrated the ranks of Ahl al-Sunnah and have torn them apart. May Allah bless you. Fight against these phenomena.

‎أَهْلُ السُّنَّةِ مُسْتَهْدَفُونَ مِنْ كُلِّ الْفِئَاتِ الضَّالَّةِ وَمِنْ كُلِّ الْأَحْزَابِ السَّيِّئَةِ لِيُمَزِّقُوهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ وَجَدُوا أَنَّهُ لَا يُبَيِّنُ أَخْطَاءَهُمْ وَيُحَذِّرُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا أَهْلُ السُّنَّةِ.

‎Ahl al-Sunnah are targeted by all deviant groups and malicious factions aiming to divide them. They have found that only Ahl al-Sunnah clarify their mistakes and warn against them.

‎وَجَدُوهُمْ فِي مَشَارِقِ الْأَرْضِ وَمَغَارِبِهَا عَلَى مَنْهَجٍ وَاحِدٍ، فَسَعَوْا فِي تَمْزِيقِهِمْ وَتَفْرِيقِهِمْ وَتَصْدِيعِهِمْ،

‎They have seen Ahl al-Sunnah united on one methodology across the world, so they have strived to divide and fragment them.

‎حَتَّى إِنَّكَ تَجِدُ هَذِهِ الظَّاهِرَةَ عِنْدَ الْعَرَبِ وَالْعَجَمِ بِالسَّبَبِ غَزْوِ وَمَكْرِ وَخُطَطِ وَمَكَايِدِ أَعْدَاءِ هَذَا الْمَنْهَجِ.

‎You can even see this phenomenon among Arabs and non-Arabs due to the tricks, deceit, and plots of the enemies of this methodology.

‎فَتَنَبَّهُوا وَاعْتَبِرُوا بِمَا حَصَلَ، وَاسْتَيْقِظُوا وَعُودُوا إِلَى الجادة،

‎Be aware and learn from what has happened. Wake up and return to the path.

‎وَرَبُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ، وَإِذَا أَصْبَحْتُمْ أَهْلَ العِلْمِ، رَبُّوا شَبَابَكُمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ الأمور وَرُوحِ الْمَوَدَّةِ وَالأُخُوَّةِ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ السَّابِقِينَ وَالْمُعَاصِرِينَ.

‎Cultivate yourselves, and when you become scholars, cultivate the youth with these principles and the spirit of love and brotherhood towards the earlier and contemporary Muslims.

‎وَاللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلِإِخْوَانِنَا الَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِالإِيمَانِ، وَلَا تَجْعَلْ فِي قُلُوبِنَا غِلًّا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا، رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ.

‎"Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith and do not place in our hearts any resentment towards those who have believed. Our Lord, indeed You are Kind and Merciful."

‎الآنَ السَّلَفِيّ يحقد بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ بفعل مَن؟ بفعل أَعْدَاءِ هَذَا الْمَنْهَجِ."

‎Now, unfortunately, you find Salafis spiteful and grudge-holding against each other. Provoked by who? By the enemies of this methodology.”
