ForbiddenThe Forbidden, Issues Of Great Importance That We Underestimate. Al-Muharramat (the forbidden) are the limits of Allaah (the Mighty and Magnificent). "These are the limits of Allaah, so do not approach them". . Allaah has threatened whoever transgresses His limits and violates His sacraments stating (Glorified be He): "And whoever disobeys Allaah and His messenger and transgresses His limits - He will put him into the fire to abide eternally therein, and he will have a humilating punishment." It is obligatory to avoid al-muharramaat in view of the saying of the prophet: "And whatever I forbade you, then avoid it and whatever I enjoined upon you, then fulfill as much of it as you able." I ask Allaah guidance, success, and observance of His limits for myself and for my Muslim brothers. I ak Him (Glorified be He) to help us avoid al-muharramaat and protect us from sins and evil deeds, Allaah is the best protector and He is the Most Merciful (Author) |
Advice To The Seekers of KnowledgeAuthor: Sultan Al Utaybi | Pages: 12 | Size: 1 MB By Shaykh Sultan Al Utaybi. Part of a series of writings advising the Talib ul Ilm (student of knowledge). |
Adorning Knowledge with ActionsShaykh Husayn al-Awaayishah. I felt that I should hurry in bringing forward the hadeeth: "The two feet of the son of Aadam will not move from near his Lord on the Day of Judgement until he is asked about five (matters): about his life - how he spent it; about his youth - how he took care of it; about his wealth - how he earned it; and where he spent it; and about that which he acted upon from the knowledge that he acquired," as an aid towards purification of the souls and preparation for death. The advice being firstly to myself, secondly to the du'aat (callers to Allah's path) and thirdly to all my Muslim brothers in every part of the world - hoping that Allah, the Most High, will cause benefit through that which I have written and that the fruits of that may be reaped, now and in the future. In this treatise I restricted myself to one part of the hadeeth and that is "…and about that which he acted upon from the knowledge that he gained." From the Author's Introduction |
The Fitnah Of The Dajjal And Gog And MagogImam as-Sa'di said: The fact that the time in which he will come is unknown indicates that no believer can guarantee safety for himsel from encountering that time. This is an affair which is possible, and its evil and fitnah are to be feared. The need of the slave for having protection from his fitnah by all means is something known. And from the greatest means is seeking refuge with Allah from him. Also, this is through supplication and fearing his fitnah. Thus, it is inevitable that one does so in all levels of his ummah. This is a firmly placed 'aqidah, to the point that if it occured and its occurrence is actualized, then this ummah-specifically those who have a connection to the correct and sound belief system-will be able to defend itself from this evil and be protected from his fitnah. In contrast, if the fear of him were to be removed from the hearts, then the fitnah would be increased when that time comes. And the believers would have no tangible iman to eradicate his fitnah and evil. |
Fleeing From The FireHell is the final abode prepared by Allah; the Most High for those do not believe in Him; those who transgress against His Laws and deny His Messengers. It epitomises the scourge of punishment; filled with indescribable torment; pain and grief that has been detailed by Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). It is often observed from our righteous predecessors that they regularly took account of themselves lest they become negligent of the Hereafter and fall under divine retribution that'll be weighed against mankind on the Day of Judgement. When a fire torch was once lit for Umar ibn Al-Khattab; he felt angst at it's burning heat; so he reprimanded himself; "How will you be patient if you encounter this O son of Al-Khattab!" He was of course; making a worldly parallel with the unparalleled Fire of Hell. |
Heavenly DisputeThis is another classical work of Imam Al-Hafidh Ibn Rajab in the English language. It is an important commentary on the noble hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that was recorded in the collection of Sunan Tirmidhi relating the dispute among the chief Angels of the Highest Heaven. The dispute arose about deeds that expiate sin and raise a person's rank in the Hereafter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said of this hadith, "Indeed, it is the truth, so study and learn it." Therefore it is necessary for every Muslim to take extra keen interest in learning its lessons, understanding its values and applying its highly prized recommendations. |
Lessons Learnt From The Story Of YusufShaikh Abdur-Rahman ibn Nasir As-Sa'di. These are some insights gained from the story of Yusuf, may Allah raise his repute and the refute of all the Prophets and Messengers.

Preventative Measures Against ShaytanAuthor: Mustafa Ibn Al-Adawi | Pages: 93 | Size: 3 MB Indeed It is only Shaytan that suggests to you the fear of his helpers, so fear them not, but fear Me, if you are (true) believers. Surah Al-'Imran 3:175} When Shaytan inflicts a person with his touch it is blinding, and it obstructs the vision, but fear of Allah along with contemplation and submission to Him enables the heart to become connected with Allah. This state arouses the heart from neglecting His guidance so that those with taqwa remember, and when they make remembrance of Allah their vision is opened and covering is removed so that they become clear sighted. |
Exposing ShaytanAuthor: Shawana A. Aziz | Pages: 81 | Size: 6 MB It is due to the seriousness of Shaytan’s fitnah (temptation, tribulation, trial) that Allah has distinctly exposed his goals and plots in the Qur’aan. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wasallam) repeatedly warned against Shaytan’s power to tempt mankind into disobeying Allah. He (sallallahu alaihe wasallam) would relentlessly reveal Shaytan’s trickery and deceit and inform about ways of defense against the accursed. |
