Fear of Shirk
In the Name of Allaah, the Extremely Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy…
Allaah the Almighty says:
»إِنَّ اللَّـهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ وَمَن يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّـهِ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَالًا بَعِيدًا«
«Verily Allaah forgives not (the sin of) setting up partners in worship with Him, but He forgives whom He wills, sins other than that.»...
nonchalante:
If there is no God, then there is no creation. There is no you. It’s like saying the TV made itself. Or…the TV randomly came together. Everything has a creator, and the Creator is He who created it all.
Rulings on Staging of demonstrations.
hakuna-mataataa:
The vast majority of the groups present today in the field of da’wah try to win the sentiments and support of the people by focusing and pointing their fingers towards the rulers. They make them the scapegoats for all the calamities, evils and ills to befall the Ummah, and subsequently make their methodologies of reform based around coups, revolutions and bringing about the...

[Surah At-Talaaq: 3]
nonchalante:
The way to greet a Muslim is to say:
Asalaamu alykum: Peace be upon you
Asalaamu alykum wa rahmatu’Allaah: Peace and Mercy of Allaah be upon you
Asalaamu alykum wa rahmatu’Allaahe wa barakaatu: Peace, Mercy and blessings of Allaah be upon you.
‘Salaam’ means peace. So when you greet someone with the statement of ‘peace’ you’re just saying ‘peace.’
Thank you for saying ‘peace’,...
Each Group Claims to be the Right One.
hakuna-mataataa:
Q- There are many religious sects and groups, each claiming that they are the victorious one. This matter is perplexing to many people, so what should we do, especially as there are groups that are related to Islam, such as Al-Sufiyah, Al-Salafiyah, and others, and how can we distinguish between them? May Allah bless you. A: It is confirmed that the Messenger of Allah (peace be...

Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: If celebrating the Prophet’s birthday was prescribed, then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) would have told his Ummah of that, because he is the most sincere of people and there is no Prophet after him who could explain anything he did not speak about. He (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon...

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!! My iPhone glass broke…. :( Alhamdulillah… :)
nonchalante:
You play too much with your deen. Are you not aware that there will come a time when a believer will go to bed & wake up a disbeliever? & vice versa? The most difficult thing to do in this dunya is to be a Muslim. The whole world is against you, even fellow Muslims. & perhaps I’m coming off as not having a sense of humor for not laughing at some things [like calling...

Marriage, Casts and Compatibility By Shaykh...
[al-Istiqaamah] [1] Indeed there is no excellence for an arab over a non-arab, nor for a non-arab over on arab, nor for a white person over a black one, nor for a black person over a white one, except through taqwaa (piety and obedience to Allaah). COMPATIBILITY IS ONLY BASED UPON RELIGION AND PIETY: From the evil and reprehensible matters is that some who claim to be from the tribe of Haashim...

A righteous wife...
Shaykh-ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyah {rahimahullah} said:
A righteous wife will be with her righteous husband for many years, and she is the one who is meant in the hadeeth in which the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “This world is temporary conveniences and the best of its comforts is a believing wife, who when you look at her she pleases you and if you tell her...

And who is better in speech than he who [says: “My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness),” and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah’s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: “I am one of the Muslims.”
[Surah Fussilat: 33]

It is reported that Ayyûb Al-Sakhtiyânî – Allâh have mercy on him – said:
Whoever loves Abû Bakr has upheld the religion, whoever loves ‘Umar has made the way clear, whoever loves ‘Uthmân is enlightened by the light of Allâh, and whoever loves ‘Alî has taken the firmest handhold. Whoever speaks well of the Companions of Allâh’s Messenger – Allâh’s peace and blessings be upon him...

Is the Day of Reckoning One Day?
Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
The Day of Reckoning is one day, but it is a day whose length is equal to fifty thousand years, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “A questioner asked concerning a torment about to befall Upon the disbelievers, which none can avert, From Allaah, the Lord of the ways of ascent.

Let's write about my day, yaay
I woke up (at 10:00 am, which is quite early for me…)
I ate breakfast
I tried not to wake anyone up, because I like to be alone in the mornings
suddenly everyone woke up (note to self: learn how to walk more quietly)
actually, now when I think about it, the phone started ringing and that’s why my dad woke up (note to self: your silent walking skills are good.)
My dad wanted me...

O Seeker of Knowledge!
pearlsofislam:
By Al-Khatib Al-Baghdadi
“I advise you – O seeker of knowledge — to make the intention pure and sincere and strive to make the soul act upon what this knowledge demands. Since knowledge is a tree and actions are its fruits and the one who does not act upon his knowledge is not counted as being a Scholar. It has been said: Knowledge is the father and actions are the offspring....

A lot of people say “oh, i’m so awkward and weird! someone love me!!!”
but I really mean it. I am awkward…
I’m so awkward I could be crowned the queen of the country Awkward and my people would be called Awkardians. The capital would be called Cera, after my awkward step brother, Michael Cera. Everything and everyone would be awkward. However the prophecy states...
