Authentic Islaamic material based upon the Qur'aan & Sunnah as understood by the Salaf-us-Saalih (Pious Predecessors) from the corner of a Salafi Home... Sheikh Muqbil رحمه الله said: "Fear الله and teach your families, teach your sons & daughters. How wonderful is the home in which its people are upon the sunnah."
[Taken from the audio: Al Hath - alaa Talab - ul Hadith, by Sheikh Muqbil Al-Hadee Al-Waadee.]
رَبِّ ابْنِ لِى عِندَكَ بَيْتاً فِى الْجَنَّةِ
'My Lord! Build for me a home with You in Jannaah'
(At-Tahreem 66:11)

The Heart of a Liar Is Far Removed from the Truth..
Ibnul-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
Beware of falsehood because it spoils your natural ability to gain
information, and it spoils your information and your ability to teach people. The liar describes
that which does not exist, and that which exists he says it does not exist just
as he describes truth as falsehood and falsehood as truth, and good as evil and
evil as good. It spoils his conception and his knowledge, which then becomes
a punishment. Then he describes what is not true to the person who trusts
him. The heart of a liar is far removed from the
truth, and is inclined to that which does not exist and he prefers falsehood.
When his ability to perceive has been spoiled as well as his knowledge, which
is the basis of every voluntary deed, these deeds would also be spoiled and the
principle of falsehood would come into force.
The Ruling on going to Amusement Parks !!
Sheikh Saleh al-Fawzan حفظه الله said:
واحذر أيها الأب الغيور من الذهاب بأسرتك إلى الملاهي المختلطة،
والشواطئ والمنتزهات التي تظهر فيها المنكرات
"Beware, O' Jealous father, from
going with your family to free-mixing amusement parks and recreational beaches
which have evils apparent in them."
Sheikh ibn al-Uthaimeen رحمه الله
Question: Many Parents go with their children to what is called Children’s
amusement parks. In it are oppositions to the Shari'ah, such as some women
displaying their bodies. The children are severely eager to go to these
amusement parks. So what is the legislated ruling on going there?
Answer: “These amusement parks, as our questioner mentioned, have in
them evils. So if a place has evils, then if a person is able to remove these
evils it is obligatory upon him to attend to remove them. As for if he is
unable, then it is haraam upon him to attend. So now we say: Take your children
to the open land and that will suffice.
The Ruling on Praying While Wearing Socks that Have a Foul Smell?
Sheikh
Abdul-Aziz âla Shaikh حفظه
الله
Question: What is the ruling
on praying with socks which emit a foul smell?
Answer: By Allaah, if there
is a foul smell, then what is more deserving is to remove them. This is because
the congregants will be harmed by this harmful smell and even you will be
harmed. If there is a foul smell, then removing them is better and you should
wash your hands.

Which is better, patience or tests or prevailing?
Trials prepare the believers to prevail on earth..
It was said to Imaam
al-Shaafi’i (may Allaah have mercy on him):
Which is better, patience or
tests or prevailing?
He said: Prevailing is the
level attained by the Prophets, & there can be no prevailing except after
trials. If a person is tried he will become patient, & if he remains
patient he will prevail.
Iblees tries to make people lazy procrastinators, and to make them have hope (of a long life)..
Ibn
al-Jawzi رحمه الله said:
Many
Jews and Christians contemplated joining Islaam, but Iblees convinced them to
procrastinate saying: “Do
not rush, look more into the issue,” until they die as
non-Muslims.
A poet said:
“Do not rush into committing a sin, and
then procrastinate repenting.”
Seize the Opportunity in Accompanying the Best of People..
Imaam as-Sa’dee (رحمه الله) said:
Certainly, a person will have companions and
contemporaries with whom he associates, and with whom he spends a lot of his
time. Therefore, seize the opportunity in accompanying the best of the people
in whose company there is not an absence of knowledge to be learnt, an advice
to be benefitted from or pre-occupation with that which draws one closer to Allaah. The least (acquired in their company) is that you
will be safeguarded from being held responsible in speech and action; alongside
being safeguarded from being ridiculed, slandered and backbitten whether you
are present or absent. There is also that great benefit of your heart’s desire
for good being increased and cultivated, and the urge towards evil is either weakened or made to vanish.
Making mankind excessive & wasteful is a plot of Shaitaan...
Sheikhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:
Shaitaan wants mankind to be excessive and
wasteful in all his matters. Indeed, if the Shaitaan sees him inclining towards
mercy excessively, then the Shaitaan
beautifies mercy so much so that the human does not hate that which Allaah
hates, nor is he protective over that which Allaah is protective.
“Say to the Râfidah: Indeed it is shirk to call upon other than Allaah…”
Sheikh Muqbil رحمه الله
Allaah سُبحانه وتعالى said:
وَعَجِبُوا أَن جَاءهُم مُّنذِرٌ مِّنْهُمْ وَقَالَ
الْكَافِرُونَ هَذَا سَاحِرٌ كَذَّابٌ
أَجَعَلَ الْآلِهَةَ إِلَهًا وَاحِدًا إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ
عُجَابٌ
وَانطَلَقَ الْمَلَأُ مِنْهُمْ أَنِ امْشُوا وَاصْبِرُوا عَلَى
آلِهَتِكُمْ إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ يُرَادُ
مَا سَمِعْنَا بِهَذَا فِي الْمِلَّةِ الْآخِرَةِ إِنْ هَذَا
إِلَّا اخْتِلَاقٌ
أَأُنزِلَ عَلَيْهِ الذِّكْرُ مِن بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُمْ فِي
شَكٍّ مِّن ذِكْرِي بَلْ لَمَّا يَذُوقُوا عَذَابِ
'And they (Arab pagans) wonder that a
warner (Prophet Muhammad) has come to them from among themselves! And the
disbelievers say: “This (Prophet Muhammad) is a sorcerer, a liar. Has he made
the aaliha (gods) (all) into One Ilaah (God – Allaah). Verily, this is a
curious thing!”'
Beautiful advice from Sheikh ‘Abdul ‘Azeez Ibn Baaz رحمه الله
It
was said to the Sheikh, "O' Sheikh, so and so has become misguided".
Sheikh رحمه الله replied:
Sheikh رحمه الله replied:
"Perhaps
his deviation was due to two things:
1. He didn’t ask Allaah for Ath-thabaat (firmness);
2. He didn’t thank Allaah for Al-Istiqaamah (steadfastness).
So
when Allaah chose for you the path of guidance, it was not because you are
special, nor was it because of your obedience. But rather, it was a mercy from
Him that enveloped you. He can remove it from you at any time.
