Ruling on Gifting Good Deeds to the Prophet ﷺ
Sheikh Salih As-Sindi hafidhahullah said:
Some later scholars have said that it is permissible to gift good deeds to the Prophet ﷺ. However, this view is weak; rather, this practice is an innovation. The reason is that the motive for doing such an act existed among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, yet they did not do it. If it had been good, they would have preceded us…
Manhaj Benefits: Does a Scholar Lose His Past Rewards After Deviating from the Sunnah?
Questions:
A scholar followed the Sunnah for a long time—spreading it, defending it, and teaching it to people—but later his heart changed, and he turned away from it and began criticising the Sunnah and its followers. The question is: will the good he previously did still count for him, and will he receive rewards similar to those who continue to act upon what he taught, based on the hadith that whoever calls to…

Shaykh Abū Bilāl Al-Ḥaḍramī (may Allah preserve him) said that there is no need for unnecessary complexity or over-analysis on social media, and no need to delve into discussing the scholars of Ahlus-
He explained that some issues may arise due to certain instigators. If anything comes from these scholars because of such provocation, then the correct approach is to be patient with them and not speak ill of them.
He also clarified that if a mistake occurs from any of them, the mistake should be clarified and corrected while refraining from attacking them or removing them from Salafiyyah.
He also mentioned that…
Question:
Some of the Hizbis say: What is your evidence for hizbiyyah [partisanship] being harām?
Shaykh Abū 'Amr 'Abdulkareem Al-Hajoori
There are many [evidences] in the Qur’ān:
{But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing}
{…they are the party of Shaytān..}
Allāh تعالى says:
{Verily, it is the party of Allāh that is successful}
{and do not be of…

"ونحن..نوالي علماء المسلمين، ونتخيَّر من أقوالهم ما وافق الكتاب والسنة ونزِنُها بهما، لا نزِنُهما بقول أحدٍ، كائنًا من كان، ولا نتَّخذ من دون الله تعالى ورسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم رجلًا يصيب ويخطئ، فنتبعه في كل ما قال، ونمنع - بل نحرِّم - متابعة غيره في كلِّ ما خالفه فيه. وبهذا أوصانا أئمة الإسلام، فهذا عهدُهم إلينا، فنحن في ذلك على منهاجهم وطريقهم وهديهم؛…
Some companions began to strike him with sandals, palm branches, or garments.

Placing Sincere Advice in Its Proper Time and Context
Question
How should advice be given? And is it permissible to publicly expose (individuals) and to cause separation between the one being advised and his brothers?
Shaykh Muhammad Ba Jamal hafidhahullah
Advice is that the intention of the one giving it is truly to advise and to rectify the condition of the one being advised, and that he benefits from it. This varies from person to person.
Some people need advice…
BENEFIT: A scholar’s mistake should not be treated as a valid difference of opinion in Islamic rulings.
Ash-Shatibi rahimahullah said:
«لا يصح اعتمادها -أي زلة العالم- خلافًا في المسائل الشرعية؛ لأنها لم تصدر في الحقيقة عن اجتهاد، ولا هي من مسائل الاجتهاد، وإن حصل من صاحبها اجتهاد؛ فهو لم يصادف فيها محلًا، فصارت في نسبتها إلى الشرع كأقوال غير المجتهد، وإنما يعد في الخلاف الأقوالُ الصادرة عن أدلة معتبرة في الشريعة، كانت مما يقوى أو يضعف، وأما إذا صدرت عن مجرد خفاء الدليل أو عدم مصادفته فلا؛ فلذلك قيل: «إنه لا يصح أن…
BENEFIT: Recognising & Valuing People of Knowledge
Ibn Al-Qayyim rahimahullah mentioned:
"فإذا ظفرت برجل واحد من أولي العلم طالب للدليل محكم له متبع للحق حيث كان وأين كان ومع من كان زالت الوحشة وحصلت الألفة، ولو خالفك فإنه يخالفك ويعذرك، والجاهل الظالم يخالفك بلا حجة ويكفرك أو يبدعك بلا حجة، وذنبك رغبتك عن طريقته الوخيمة، وسيرته الذميمة، فلا تفتر بكثرة هذا الضرب، فإن الآلاف المؤلفة منهم لا يعدلون بشخص واحد من أهل العلم، والواحد من أهل العلم بعدل بملء الأرض…

My sisters in Islam:
Being lenient regarding images and picture-making is extremely dangerous. It is one of the major sins. It involves being cursed, and it prevents angels from entering, which in turn allows devils to take over.
What is the ruling on these images? And what must we avoid?
Images of living beings are prohibited when the head is present, based on the Prophet’s statement ﷺ:
«الصُّورَةُ الرَّأسُ،…

Easter and Good Friday, two festivals of Kufr (disbelief) and Shirk (making equals) with الله Allaah is coming up soon.
The origin of Easter goes back to the worship of the goddess ESTHER. Statues of her show a woman with many breasts hanging off her chest, symbolising the weaning of young babies and those who wanted children prayed to her at the beginning of Springtime.

Why Are Hizbees So Fascinated with Al-Izz ibn Abdissalam?
Sheikh Sulaymān Ar-Ruhayli said:
The secret behind the partisans' (Hizbiyyin) interest in Al-Izz bin Abd al-Salam is two dangerous matters:
1 - His stance on the rulers.
2 - He believes it is permissible to lie for the sake of benefit (maslahah).
And this rule is the vehicle of the partisans.
By Allah, I do not know a partisan except that he is a liar.
Because they believe that lying is [part of the]…

Then he cites evidence that does not support his claim. Mariyah Al-Qibtiyyah, may Allah have mercy on her and be pleased with her, was a slave girl belonging to Al-Muqawqis, who sent her. This matter
Yet he makes women’s private parts permissible through such an ugly specious argument. Had he referred to the closest references among Muslims, he would have found that the meaning of right-hand possession is possession of a slave, and that it was a slave. Such an issue does not require much refutation, because if you asked any Muslim: “What is the meaning of right-hand possession?” he would say: “Male and female…
The questioner answers: No, because there are no slaves today.
Yahya Silmi says: That is your religion, not our religion. In our religion, it can happen today.
The third category of right-hand possession according to Yahya Silmi—the one regarding which his own statements are contradictory.
Sometimes he says: It is that the poor give their children to the rich due to inability to support them—meaning during the time of the Messenger of Allah—and they become right-hand…
