ANTI MUSLIM PROPAGANDA – HOW DO I DEAL WITH SO MUCH ANTI MUSLIM SENTIMENT – I CAN’T COPE WITH THE PRESSURE OF BEING A MUSLIM – MOVEMENTS AGAINST ISLAM – ISLAMOPHOBIA

August 6, 2012

One of the most common things that Muslims are faced with daily, IS ANTI MUSLIM PROPAGANDA. And unlike the Jews who label anything resembling critique of Israel or the Jewish fate as ANTI SEMMITISM, the poor old Muslims just take it on the chin and plot along.

Allah Subhanaahu Wa Ta’ala has informed us that there will always be people who intend to misrepresent Islam and make it appear evil. Our modern term for this is “Islamophobia,” which means spreading fear and hatred of Islam. Most people who are against Islam have simply been given misinformation and we should help to provide them with an accurate view of Islam, while others deliberately slander the religion even after they know the truth. … More ANTI MUSLIM PROPAGANDA – HOW DO I DEAL WITH SO MUCH ANTI MUSLIM SENTIMENT – I CAN’T COPE WITH THE PRESSURE OF BEING A MUSLIM – MOVEMENTS AGAINST ISLAM – ISLAMOPHOBIA

IBN AL-QAYYIM ON TYPES OF KUFR – MADARIJ US-SALIKEEN PAGES 335-338 – TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH

July 17, 2012

As much as a Muslim learns about Islam and the beauty of it, the more a Muslim fears about falling in to the abyss of the Hellfire.

An imprtant aspect of Islam that is most abused these daysis the knowledge of kufr and it’s types. This knowledge is not acquired so that one becomes judgemental of others, rather it becomes a tool to keep oneself from falling in to it, and we seek the Help of Allah from the evils of our own souls and the accursed shaitan.

And as for the Major Kufr (kufr akbar) – then it is of five types :Kufr of takdheeb (rejection), kufr due to arrogance and pride whilst one acknowledges the truth (tasdeeq), kufr of I’raad (turning away), kufr of shakk (doubts) and kufr of nifaaq (hypocrisy). … More IBN AL-QAYYIM ON TYPES OF KUFR – MADARIJ US-SALIKEEN PAGES 335-338 – TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH

DO WE NEED KNOWLEDGE FOR DA’WAH – CAN A JAHIL GIVE DAWAH – HOW MUCH KNOWLEDGE IS ENOUGH – AM I A SHAIKH?

March 31, 2012

It therefore becomes obligatory on each muslim to invite others to the deen of al-Islam with knowledge and wisdom. The more knowledge a da’ee has the better and stronger the arguments for Islam become, which also makes the da’ee more confident when inviting as the proofs for become overwhelming, thus making a more successful daee.

We have great examples of our dear Prophet Muhammed salAllahu alaihi wa sallam which illustrate the different ways of calling people to Islam, be it with only gestures, hard or soft words depending on the situation and person/persons involved and always with wisdom. … More DO WE NEED KNOWLEDGE FOR DA’WAH – CAN A JAHIL GIVE DAWAH – HOW MUCH KNOWLEDGE IS ENOUGH – AM I A SHAIKH?

REFUTING ULAMA AND STUDENTS OF ILM – WHAT THE MADKHALIS AND THEIR LIKES GOT WRONG – THE SCHOLARS THEY CITE SPEAK AGAINST THEM?

February 6, 2012

They apply all of the rulings from the Qur’an and Sunnah to everyone else, but they leave themselves out of them.

They have a refutation for the refuter of refutations… if you have said it they have tried to refute it. They refute so much that their refutations have become self indications, of their own madness, of their own need to be known as people of knowledge.

Almost as if to say, Allah commanded you, but not us… The ayat applies to you, but not us… And the mill keeps spinning, because the donkeys keep walking around in circles. … More REFUTING ULAMA AND STUDENTS OF ILM – WHAT THE MADKHALIS AND THEIR LIKES GOT WRONG – THE SCHOLARS THEY CITE SPEAK AGAINST THEM?

GREY HAIR IN ISLAM – RULINGS AND SUNNAHS – CAN I PLUCK MY GREY HAIRS OUT – IS THERE A BENEFIT TO HAVING GREY HAIR OR BEARD – WHO IS CORRECT

November 16, 2011

“The basic principle concerning things other than acts of worship is that they are permissible.”

Hence we know that katam is not to be used on its own, because it gives a pure, Darkest coal-black colour, but it may be used with henna to give a black colour with reddish highlights. Hence we can reconcile the ahaadeeth. … More GREY HAIR IN ISLAM – RULINGS AND SUNNAHS – CAN I PLUCK MY GREY HAIRS OUT – IS THERE A BENEFIT TO HAVING GREY HAIR OR BEARD – WHO IS CORRECT

KHUTBAH – خطبة – NIYYAH AND IKHLAS – ONE GOES WITH THE OTHER?

October 28, 2011

One of the first things a sincere Muslim must do is to have the correct intention. The intention is so important that Ibn Hajar in his Fath al-Bari Sharh Sahih al-Bukhari, and Imam Al-Nawawi in his Arab’ayeen used the hadith “Actions are judged by their intentions”, as the first hadith. The first thing a student of knowledge learns, is the hadith about intentions.

“Actions are (judged) by motives (niyyah), so each man will have what he intended. … More KHUTBAH – خطبة – NIYYAH AND IKHLAS – ONE GOES WITH THE OTHER?

WHAT ARE HADITH – HADEETH – SOURCES OF HADITH OF MUSLIM FRACTIONS – WHAT DO THE SHIA CLASSIFY AS AHADITH – الحــــــديـث

October 12, 2011

The administration of the early Khalifas discouraged putting the Hadith in writing, instead, they encouraged committing the Hadith to memory. The general public went along but soon it was discovered that confusion about the authenticity of the Hadith was taking place. … More WHAT ARE HADITH – HADEETH – SOURCES OF HADITH OF MUSLIM FRACTIONS – WHAT DO THE SHIA CLASSIFY AS AHADITH – الحــــــديـث

Among the punishments for sins is that blessings will be removed and vengeance will be warranted. The servant will not have a blessing removed unless he commits a sin, and vengeance against him will be unwarranted unless he commits a sin. It is as Ali ibn Abi Talib, may Allah be pleased with him, said: … More WHY WE GET TESTED AND TRIALED IN THE DUNYA – AL-JAWAB AL-KAFI – IBN AL QAYYIM AL JAWZIYYA – TRANSLATED

4 IMAMS PROHIBITING BLIND FOLLOWING – ABU HANIFA, IMAM MALIK, IMAM SHAFI’E AND IMAM AHMAD SAID – DO NOT FOLLOW US BLINDLY

May 1, 2011

The topic of blind following (Taqleed) can not be written or spoken about enough, the Muslim world is in such a state these days, that a person who follows the sunnah is considered to be an outsider, anything that does not conform to the religion of someones dead grandfather (who went to hajj) is considered an attack on Islam.

How wonderful would it be if Imam Abu Hanifa, the imam whose Madhhab the Bosnian community claims to follow, could come back so that they could view him. The way he looked, the way he spoke, I am sure that the majority of the population would proclaim him a Wahhabi. Now imagine the sahaba… Alaahul Musta’an. … More 4 IMAMS PROHIBITING BLIND FOLLOWING – ABU HANIFA, IMAM MALIK, IMAM SHAFI’E AND IMAM AHMAD SAID – DO NOT FOLLOW US BLINDLY
