For those who don’t pray the Sunnah prayers (mu’akkadah). THREAD

[Sharḥ al-Kāfīyah al-Shāfīyah | Volume 4 | Page 464]

Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ al-‘Uthaymīn رحمه الله said: “Know that possessing money, owning a fancy house, and having many children may not necessarily make you happy; however, being contented with whatever you have will make you happy, even if you are the poorest person.”

The best way to engage with elders who have yet to grasp the gist of the Sunnah is through explanation with wisdom and patience, rather than resorting to arguments.

Do not speak ill of someone simply because your circle does. Gossip by association is still backbiting in the sight of Allāh. You’re not safe just because you weren’t the first to speak.

But his deeds that he did for worldly gain will be rendered invalid, and in the hereafter he will be among the losers.” [Jāmi’ al-Bayān Tafsīr al-Ṭabarī | Volume 12 | Page 347]

Imām al-Ṭabarī رحمه الله said: “Whoever does a righteous deed seeking worldly gain, whether it is fasting, praying, or tahajjud at night, doing it only for the sake of worldly gain, Allāh سبحانه وتعالى says: I shall give him what he is seeking in this world of reward,

True freedom is found in the choice to dress modestly, freeing oneself from unwelcome and uncomfortable gazes, and refusing to rely on others’ approval or attention. This stands in contrast to being confined by the constant craving for attention through revealing attire.

Nothing diminishes the value of ‘Ilm (knowledge) like a condescending demeanor from its custodian. Humility beautifies it.

And there is nothing after the Sunnah except heresy (Bid’ah). [Taḥrīm al-Naẓar fī Kutub al-Kalām | Volume 1| Page 71]

So have the Taqwā of Allāh (by doing what He commanded and abstaining from His prohibitions) the Most High, and fear for yourselves, for the matter is difficult, and there is nothing after Paradise except Hell, and after the truth there is nothing but misguidance,

Imām Ibn Qudāmah رحمه الله said: “Whoever follows other than the path of his predecessors (Salaf), it will lead him to his destruction, and whoever turns away from the Sunnah has deviated from the path of Paradise.

One of the most significant accomplishments one can achieve is consistently having good manners in all situations. On the Day of Judgment, we won’t be questioned about how others treated us but rather about how we treated others.

Guarding our good deeds against riyā’ (showing off) is crucial, for it nullifies them. Nobody wants to cultivate a crop only to have it ruined by locusts.

[Kitāb al-Ādāb (The Book Of Manners) | Of Shaykh Fu’ād Ibn ‘Abd al-‘Azīz]

It Is Disliked To Hang Verses Of The Qur’ān Up On A Wall!

When you use what Allāh gave you to harm others, that’s not strength — that’s betrayal. Betrayal of amānah. Betrayal of the trust between you and your Rabb. Power is a test. And Allāh will ask what you did with every ounce of it.

If the heart is ill, the tongue turns harsh. Anger replaces ṣabr, and judgment disguises itself as advice. Pride hides behind “honesty,” and ego speaks in the name of truth. But a heart close to Allāh softens its words, lowers itself, and makes excuses for others.

[As-Sawā’iq | Volume 4 | Page 1603]

Imām Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said: “The people of Sunnah leave the statements of the people due to the Sunnah. The People of Bid’ah leave the Sunnah due to the statements of the people.”

Do not label someone misguided just because they differ with your teacher. Truth isn’t owned by personalities — it’s measured by Qur’an and Sunnah. Attachment to individuals should never replace allegiance to principles.
