Shaykh Fawzān حفظه الله said:

The trials are like flood; nothing saves one from them except holding fast to the Sunnah and it is not possible for you to hold fast to the Sunnah unless you have knowledge of it.

Knowledge that lacks blessings...

 





Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymin رحمه الله said:

Knowledge that does not result in the fear of Allāh, turning to Him in repentance, devotion to Him and respecting the Muslims is surely knowledge that lacks of blessings.

Shaykh Rabī’ al-Madkhaliحفظه الله  said:

“From the signs of the hour is to see people fleeing away from the major scholars and moving on to take from the ignoramuses – those who speak  with no proofs  of the Qur’ān and Sunnah, those who feign knowledge and this is a catastrophe.”

Importance of Correctly Reciting Sūrah al-Fātiḥah

 

Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah [d. 728] رحمه الله said:

In the Fātiah there are  11 tashdīdahs )letters with  ـّ  ّ)in the  Basmalah there are 3. Leaving off even one of these (not pronouncing it with a shaddah) will invalidate  the prayer according to  many of our  companions, the way it would if a letter was to be left off. Because the mushaddad letter is made up of two letters, one has a sukoon and the other a vowel.

From The Saying Of Imaam An Nawawee (Rahimahullaah)

 

 Imam an Nawawee said:

 The 1st thing a student should start with is memorization of the Glorious Quran. It is the most important knowledge.

Khalaf cannot reach Salaf in memorization and understanding

 

Imaam Adh-Dhahabi (rahimahullaah) said:

‘I am absolutely certain that indeed the latecomers have no hope of reaching the predecessors [i.e. the salaf] in memorization and understanding.’

Upon you is knowledge. For indeed seeking it is worship.Learning it for Allaah’s sake is a good deed...

 

Mu’aadh b. Jabal (d. 18H) radiallaahu ‘anhu said:

Upon you is knowledge. For indeed seeking it is worship. Learning it for Allaah’s sake is a good deed. Striving upon it is a means of drawing nearness [to Allaah] for its people. Teaching it to one who does not know it is charity. Researching it is Jihaad. And reviewing it is Tasbeeh.

How do you know if your heart is sound or sick...

 


The illustrious scholar, Shaykh ‘Abdu Rahmân ibn Nâsir As-Sa’dee (d.1367H) رحمه الله stated,

The sound and upright heart does not desire nor incline , except towards goodness, or towards that which Allaah has made permissible for him. So when you see the heart inclining towards disobedience, quick to submit to it (i.e. sins) then it is sick.

The Love Of Knowledge

 


Ibn Al-Qayyim (رحمه الله) said:

The love of knowledge and seeking it is the basis of all [acts of] obedience [to Allâh], and the love of the world and wealth, and seeking it is the basis of every bad deed.

The importance of knowledge in fighting destructive ideas


.....

There is no doubt that knowledge is the key to all good and the means to fulfill the Ordinances of Allah and abstain from what He has forbidden. Actions come after having knowledge, for those whom Allah has granted success. Knowledge supports the determination to do good, because there is no Iman (faith), action, or striving except based on knowledge. Words and actions which are not based on knowledge are worthless and may incur bad consequences and great corruption.

Whoever applies what he learns is granted knowledge of things that they do not know.

 

Some Salaf (righteous predecessors, may Allah be pleased with them), said, 

Whoever applies what he learns is granted knowledge of things that they do not know.

Allah (Glorified be He) states,  While as for those who accept guidance, He increases their guidance and bestows on them their piety. (Surah Muhammad 47:17)

Some of the Salaf said:

 


Some of the Salaf (rightly guided ancestors) said, “When I would read a parable in the Qur’an that I could not comprehend, I would cry for myself because Allāh the Exalted says,

وَمَا يَعْقِلُهَا إِلَّا الْعَالِمُونَ

But none will understand them except those who have knowledge. [29:43]

The Good word is Charity (الكَلِمَةُ الطَّيِّبَةُ صَدَقَةٌ)

 

The Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said:

الكَلِمَةُ الطَّيِّبَةُ صَدَقَةٌ

(The good word is charity.)[1]

Shaikh Muhammad bin Saalih al-‘Uthaimeen (rahimahullaah) mentioned:

 Charity is not exclusive to wealth, rather everything that draws one close to Allaah is charity in the general sense, because carrying it is a proof of the truthfulness of its adherent in seeking the pleasures of Allaah, The Mighty and Majestic.[2]

“Know that the truth is that which Allaah has revealed and [given to] his Messenger (sallaal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) in the Book and the Sunnah, even if its adherents and those who embrace it are few .What came in the Islamic Legislation is the truth, which a [person] is commanded to follow, even if the majority of the people free themselves from it and those who follow it are few.

Asking the Creation for Fulfillment of Needs Has Not Been Commanded as Opposed to Asking for Knowledge

 

Asking the Creation for Fulfillment of Needs Has Not Been Commanded as Opposed to Asking for Knowledge

 Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah (رحمه الله) said:

سؤال المخلوق المخلوق أن يقضي حاجة نفسه أو يدعو له فلم يؤمر به بخلاف سؤال العلم

 A person asking another person to fulfill a need of his or to make duʾā for him, this has not been commanded (in the legislation) as opposed to asking for knowledge. Majmūʿ al-Fatāwā (1/185)

This and the prior statement of Ibn Taymiyyah is in relation to asking for the fulfillment of ones needs in worldly, material affairs from others. It indicates the importance of being diligent, hard-working and self-reliant after ones reliance upon Allāh, seeking His aid and assistance, displaying want only of Him and His bounty, and not displaying want and need of others in ones material needs as that is lowering oneself.

In the Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy


Shaikh Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allah preserve him) said:

... Ascription to this methodology [of the Salaf] requires [an acquisition of] knowledge of its fundamentals  in order that the Muslim may adhere to it. [One is] required to have knowledge of the other methodologies that are in opposition to Salafiyyah in order to avoid them.
