Ruling on those who defend Jam’eeyat (Da’wah organizations)

حكم من يدافع عن الجمعيات
(1)
السؤال: يوجد في مدينتنا رجل إخواني يلبس على العوام وعلى المغترين به عندما يسألونه عن الجمعيات، ويقول: لو كانت الجمعيات بدعة فالمكرفون والسيارات بدعة، لأنها لم تكن موجودة في عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم؟
الإجابة:
نعم هو ملبس، وإلا فإن هذه عبارة عن وسائل مشروعة لها أصول، أما الجمعيات فكان مقتضاها موجودًا ولم يفعلها النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم

Question: In our city there is an Ikhwani who deceives the laypeople and those who are fooled by him in that when they ask about Jam’eeyaat he says: If Jam’eeyaat were innovations then the microphone and cars are (also) innovations, because they were not present in the time of the Messenger ?

Answer: Yes he is one who deceives (covers the truth with falsehood), and otherwise, verily this expression about means consistent with Islamic law (to give da’wah) have foundations, as for Jam’eeyaaat that are present in this time the Prophet never did such a thing (have organizations for da’wah).

Benefit from our Shaikh Ibn Baaz.

أنا كثيراً ما أتحدث لوحدي، طبيعة كذا، لم أستطع تركها فهل تعتبر غيبة إذا ذكرت إنسان بما يكره وأنا لوحدي، لم أذكره مع أحد من الناس، وإنما بيني وبين نفسي؟

النبي -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قال: (الغيبة ذكرك أخاك بما يكره). فظاهر كلام النبي- صلى الله عليه ويسلم- العموم، وأنك متى ذكرت أخاك بما يكره سواء كنت وحدك أو عند الناس فهذا كله غيبة. فالوصية أن تحذر ذلك، وأن تعتاد السكوت إذا كنت وحدك إلا في ذكر الله –عز وجل-، لا دخل لك في الناس، اذكر ربك، اشتغل بشيء من ذكر الله: سبحان الله والحمد لله ولا إله إلا الله، والله أكبر. اللهم اغفر لي. دع عنك الناس، عندك من الشغل ما يكفي، من ذكر الله واستغفاره، ودعائه – سبحانه وتعالى -.

The Questioner asked: I talk to myself a lot, it is like this for me, and I cannot leave it off. Would it be Gheebah (backbiting) if I mentioned someone with what he dislikes and I am by myself. I do not mention it to anyone, rather it is to myself.

Shaikh Ibn Baaz: The Prophet (Salallahu Alaihi wa sallam) said: “Backbiting is saying about your brother that which he dislikes.” Therefore what is apparant from the speech of the Prophet (Salallahu Alaihi wa sallam) is what is general and that whenever you mention about your brother that which he dislikes whether you are alone or with the people then this is all backbiting. Therefore the advice is to beware of this, and to get accustomed to silence when you are alone except when remembering Allah- azza wa jall- don’t mention the people. Remember your Lord, keep busy with something from the rememberence of Allah. Subhan Allah, Alhmadu Lillah, La Ilaha Ill Allah, Wallahu Akbar. May Allah forgive me. Leave the people alone, you have enough to do (for yourself) from remembering Allah- Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala-, asking his forgiveness and making suplications.

Notes:

This is why whenever someone went to Shaikh Ibn Baaz and told him: He said so and so of you and so and so of you. He simply used to say: “May Allah excuse everyone.”

And as a poet said:

Do not concentrate on the faults of others Over your faults and these are two faults.

Meaning: That if you concentrate on the faults of others and you do not look at yourself and your faults this would be double the sins. Because you would be heedless of yourself and your heart yet attentive to others and what they do in secret and open.

Khutbah on establishing the religion

Given in Aldana street: 24/04/09

After Khutbatil Haajah..

For verily every Muslim whether male or female, good or evil, or upon the Sunnah or other than it seeks to establish this religion and have it as the most powerful in the land. This is because this religion is the religion of truth, the religion of Tawheed, the religion of the Prophets and the Messengers, the religion of justice, the religion og unity and brotherhood and guidance . Allah has said: “He is the one who has sent his Messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth to conquer all religions and Allah is enough as a witness.”

Know Oh Muslims that Allah has not left anything out of his book. And he has made clear the way toward establishing the religion and making it firm upon the earth, for those who want it, with clarity. Allah has said in his book: “Allah has promised those who believe from you and do righteous deeds that he would make you inherit the earth as those before them inherited the earth and he would establish the religion that he is pleased with firmly on the earth and he will replace their fears with safety. They worship me and don’t associate partners with me.”

Allah has promised us that this inheritance of the earth, meaning to inheriti it after the righteous, and establishment of the religion, and safety of the Muslims never comes except with establishing the oneness of Allah and obidience to him and obidence to the Messenger . For Imaan and the oneness of Allah come with knowledge and good deeds are those deeds which go in congruence with the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger . And the Messenger of Allah has mentioned in an authentic Hadeeth which showed the reasons for the weakness of the Muslims because of their deviating from the Shari’ah and their love for the Dunya said: “Allah will put humiliation over you, he will not lift it until you return to your religion.”

Yes, Return, for returning to what the Messenger of Allah was upon and his companions is the way to power and establishment of the religion. And to this Imam Malik said: “The last of this Ummah will not be rectified except by which the first of this ummah was rectified by.” And the one who is sucessful is the one who follows the way of the ancient ones (referring to the companions of the Messenger )

Second Khutbah:

Upon us Oh Muslims is to reflect on this verse and look at our condition with it. . And it is upon us to know that the power is with Allah alone. Allah hqas said: “Whomsoever wants power then Allah has all the power.” And Allah said: “And Allah has the power and his Messenger and the believers but the hypocrites do not know.” And Allah has made it Haraam for us to seek power from other than him like the way of the Hypocrites. Allah has said: “Do they wish for power from them then the power is with Allah only.” There is no power when one goes against the Shari’ah. There is no power in revolutions or fighting the Muslim rulers or democracy or elections. And not by innovations or partisanship that seperates the religion and makes the Muslims into groups and parties.

Power for the Muslims is only with obidience to Allah and worshipping him alone and obidience to the Messenger . And establishing the religion is through obidience of Allah and his Messenger . It isn’t by entering parliament and other than it. Therefore it is upon every Muslim to start with himself and submit totally to Allah and to worship him has one and to obey the Messenger and to make the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger as a judge in his life. And he has to place emphasis on his family and his Masjid so that this good would spread. For there is no establishment of the religion on the earth until we establish it within ourselves and there is no inheritance of the earth got us unless we do good deeds that go according to the Shari’ah. Allah said: “Allah doesn’t change a people unless they change what is within themselves.”

Is the basis of the Muslim Sunnah or Bid’ah?

السؤال:
هل الأصل في المسلم السنة؟

الإجابة:
الأصل في المسلم المستور السلامة حتى يظهر منه سوء، والأصل في السني حسن الظن، وأنه سني حتى ينقله عن ذلك ناقل صحيح، والأصل في المبتدع البدعة وسوء الظن، والأصل في الكافر الكفر وأنه كافر حتى يعلم إسلامه فهذه أصول واضحة يؤيدها أثر عمر رضي الله عنه أنه قال: من أظهر لنا خيرًا أمناه وقبلناه، ومن أظهر لنا غير ذلك لم نأمنه ولم نقبله، وإن قال سريرته حسنة. وغير ذلك من الأدلة على وجوب معاملة الناس بما ظهر من أحوالهم.

للشيخ يحيى الحجوري حفظه الله http://www.aloloom.net/vb/showthread.php?t=2594

Shaikh Yahya Al Haajuri was asked: Is the basis of the Muslim the Sunnah?

Answer: The basis of the Muslim whose condition is hidden is good until evil comes from him, and the basis of the Sunnah is having good opinions about him, and that he is Sunni until there is something that takes him out of being Sunni. And the basis of the innovator is innovation and having bad opinions about him. And the basis of the disbeliever is disbelief until his Islam is known. For these are clear principles which is evidenced by a narration from Umar when he said: “Whomsoever shows good to us we trust him and accept him and whomsoever shows other than that we don’t trust him or accept him even if his secret life is good.” And other than that from evidences which shows that one operates with the people with what is apparant of their condition.

Does a Muslim stay away from Fitan At all times?

ال الإمام ابن باز -رحمه الله تعالى- في أحد إملاءاته:

Al Imam Ibn Baaz said in one of his writings:

Understanding the Hadeeth concerning Fitnah (Trials, Tribulations)

From Abdul Azeez Ibn Abdillah Ibn Baaz to the noble brother the Shaikh… may Allah guide him to which he is pleased with and increase him in knowledge and Imaan. Ameen

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuhu,

You letter dates 24/Muharram 1411 has reached me, may Allah make you arrive to his guidance, and I checked all that you mentioned. And it makes me happy to inform you that the Ahadeeth concerning Fitnah and warning from it according to the people of knowledge are the Fitan (trials) where the one who is correct is not known from the one who is wrong and it is upon the believer to stay away from it. And it is what the Prophet meant when he said: The one who is sitting is better than the one who is standing, and the one who is walking is better than the one who is running…
As for the trails where the one who is right is known from the one who is wrong and the oppressor from the oppresed this does not enter in the aforementioned Ahadeeth. But evidences of the Shariah from the book and the Sunnah show that it is compulsory to help the one who is correct and oppressed upon the one who trangresses and oppresses. And from this is what happened between Ali and Mu’awiyah Radiallaho Anhuma. For the one who was correct according to Ahlus Sunnah was Ali and he was a Mujtahid who got two rewards. And Mu’aawiyah and those who were with him were wrong but they were Mujtahidoon, those who looked for the truth, and they have one reward, may Allah be pleased with all of them.

قال الإمام ابن باز -رحمه الله تعالى- في أحد إملاءاته:

(مفهوم الأحاديث المتعلقة بالفتن)

من عبد العزيز بن عبد الله بن باز إلى حضرة الأخ المكرم فضيلة الشيخ : ع ، ح ، خ . وفقه الله لما فيه رضاه وزاده من العلم والإيمان آمين .

سلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته ، أما بعد :

فقد وصلني كتابكم الكريم المؤرخ في 24 / محرم / 1411 هـ وصلكم الله بهداه ، واطلعت على جميع ما ذكرتم .

ويسرني أن أخبركم أن الأحاديث المتعلقة بالفتن والتحذير منها محمولة عند أهل العلم على الفتن التي لا يعرف فيها المحق من المبطل فهذه الفتن المشروع للمؤمن الحذر منها ، وهي التي قصدها النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بقوله : القاعد فيها خير من القائم والماشي خير من الساعي الحديث .

أما الفتن التي يعرف فيها المحق من المبطل والظالم من المظلوم فليست داخلة في الأحاديث المذكورة بل قد دلت الأدلة الشرعية من الكتاب والسنة على وجوب نصر المحق والمظلوم على الباغي والظالم .

ومن هذا الباب ما جرى بين علي ومعاوية رضي الله عنهما . فإن المصيب عند أهل السنة هو علي وهو مجتهد وله أجران . ومعاوية ومن معه مخطئون وبغاة عليه لكنهم مجتهدون طالبون للحق فلهم أجر واحد رضي الله عن الجميع .
