Fundraiser: Help Ustadh Muhammad James Sutton with his financial difficulties so he can support his children and resume his Islamic classes where he teaches online for free [🧵]

@mordecai_1m That argument never held any weight to begin with

“Bukhari came 200 years later” argument died today. This supports the Islamic Isnad system even more:

Why do you focus so much on Najdis/Wahhabis when you yourself have admitted that other groups such as Asharis and Sufis are guilty of the same criticisms?

@mohammed_hijab Why do you focus so much on Najdis/Wahhabis when you yourself have admitted that other groups such as Asharis and Sufis are guilty of the same criticisms?

Final Challenge to the Najdis on Iran and Arab states: Do you agree with the following statement? If not, explain why. If Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab were alive today, he would declare takfir upon the rulers and systems of virtually all Arab and Muslim states just as his followers explicitly declared the Ottoman Empire to be a kāfir state, allying with external powers to fight it. If your answer is yes, then your selective theological criticism of Iran collapses. By your own principles, Iran (and every other Muslim-majority state) should be branded an apostate regime and uniting with them is as good/bad as uniting with any other Arab state. If your answer is no, then you are either ignorant of the historical and theological positions of Ibn Abd al-Wahhab and early Najdism, or you are subordinating your supposed principles to current political alliances or your hand is forced.

@Farid_0v Assalamualkum akhi, can you make a video on the recent inscriptions that were found and how they refute orientalist and Shia narratives? It could be very useful for dawah inshaaAllah

Watching football is just unnecessary heartbreak.

@ibmsulaymani Ironically, Mohammad Hijab defended Shaykh Muhammad Ibn AbdulWahhab against unfair criticism of takfir and brought up examples Asharis making unjust takfir youtu.be/tfVkl935Nv0

Why are you leaving out the fact that the Najdīs were attacked first? Have you heard of Sulaymān Āl Ḥumayd, the ruler of al-Aḥsāʾ, who tried pressuring ʿUthmān b. Muʿammar to kill Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-Wahhāb, causing his expulsion from al-ʿUyaynah? Have you heard of Sharīf Masʾūd b. Saʾīd, who imprisoned a group of Najdī pilgrims to Makkah in 1162 AH, based on a fatwā from his scholars that the Wahhābīs are disbelievers? Why omit the fact that the Wahhābīs consistently sought peaceful options, like writing letters informing the people of their daʾwah, to Najd, al-Aḥsāʾ and its surroundings, southern Arabia, and the Ḥijāz? Have you heard of the chief of Najrān, known as al-Sayyid Hibatullāh al-Makramī al-Ismāʿīlī, who came with massive armies in 1178 AH to fight the state of Āl Saʿūd in al-Dirʿiyyah? Have you heard of Dahhām b. Dawwās, the amīr of Riyāḍ and one of the fiercest opponents of the First Saudi State, who fought 17 battles (as early as 1159 AH) against them to try and destroy them? Have you heard of Thuwaynī b. ʿAbdullāh, the chief of the Muntafiq tribe in ʿIrāq, cooperating with al-Aḥsāʾ to the attacked the Najdīs in 1201 AH? Have you heard of the Ottoman deputy ʿAlī Pasha al-Kikhyā, who mobilized armies from ʿIrāq and assembled vast forces for a campaign in 1213 AH against the Najdīs, which the government of Istanbul supported with equipment and troops? @mohammed_hijab The Najdīs took up arms to defend themselves against people who hated this daʾwah and sought to destroy it. Your claims simply aren’t consistent with history, so are you ignorant of the facts or are you lying? Pick one.

Conceal Your Childs Beauty to Prevent the Evil Eye al-Baghawi rahimahullah said: Uthman once saw a beautiful child and said: 'cover the dimple on his chin so that he will not be affected by the evil eye.' Ibn 'Uthaymeen rahimahullah said: "If a person dresses his children in worn or unattractive clothing out of fear of the evil eye, there is no harm in that." al-Baghawi, Sharb al-Sunnah. Vol. 12, p. 166/Ibn Uthaymin, Muhammad ibn Şalih. Al-Qawl al-Mufid 'ala Kitab al-Tawhid. Vol. 1, p. 180 - Şalah al-Irāni.

𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲: 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐈𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐦 The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever gives up wearing fine clothes out of humility for Allah, while they are able to do so, Allah will call them on the Day of Resurrection in front of the creation to choose any garments of faith they wish to wear.” 📚 Related by al-Tirmidhī and authenticated by al-Albānī Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ al-ʿUthaymīn رحمه الله (d. 1421H) explained: “This means that if a person is among people of moderate status, who cannot afford luxurious clothing, and then humbles himself by wearing what they wear to avoid standing out and to prevent their hearts from breaking (tanksir qulūbuhum), and not to flaunt, he will attain this great reward. But if a person is among those who’ve been blessed with wealth and can afford luxurious clothing, that is permissible. It is better for him to wear it, for Allah is beautiful and loves beauty. Undoubtedly, if a person is among those of high status and then wears clothing similar to the poor, this is seen as ostentation (shuhrah). Thus, one’s clothing depends on the situation.” 📚 Sharḥ Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn, 4:317–318

I’ve launched a GoFundMe for an urgent financial crisis that is now affecting my ability to remain near my children. To keep things transparent, I uploaded redacted documentation (bills, invoices etc) for the entire breakdown, and shared the uncensored originals privately with brothers Farid and Jake for verification. Any contribution, share, or du’a would mean a great deal. gofund.me/83ee01df6

@ilm_archive @dmontetheno1 Jazakallahukhairan.

@dmontetheno1 Don't recommend this book x.com/ilm_archive/st…

@Alghurabaaaaaa Why would you spread it? You will be responsible for influencing others to look into it and all the subsequent harms. Delete this post immediately.

@Al_Murabiti Assalamualkum, is this book still available for purchase? The link isn’t working

Excited to announce the publication of our first book: a translation of “Al-Ikhlāṣ wa An-Niyyah” (Sincerity & Intention) by Al-Ḥāfiẓ Ibn Abī Ad-Dunyā [d. 281 AH]. Hard copy: amzn.to/3XOFzZT

@IbnNazim I’m not in charge of any of the fundraisers, I just shared the links.

@ilm_archive Can you open a launchgood. I prefer to use that platform.

I asked Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibreel (may Allah preserve him) whether it was permissible to drink a Dr. Pepper His response: 👇

@Salafization1 Assalamualkum akhi, you should make a short promo trailer for the book and post it on your YouTube channel so more people hear about the fundraiser

Many brothers have reached out asking about the book, encouraging me to finish it, and kindly offering to financially support the work, and advised me to open a Patreon or something similar to help with the costs of research, editing, publishing, design, distribution, etc., and simply being able to dedicate the necessary time to complete this properly. So I have now created a LaunchGood campaign, that has finally been approved, for those who would like to support, in it one may also support by pre-ordering a copy through the campaign: launchgood.com/v4/campaign/su… You may also support through PayPal in'shāʾAllāh. paypal.com/donate/?busine… A while back, I posted about this upcoming book Operation Arab Spring: Divide & Conquer, and I mentioned that I was hoping to complete it around that time. Unfortunately, due to many personal, financial, and practical challenges, I was not able to complete it as quickly as I had hoped. Another major reason for the delay is that I had to wait and make sure certain final documents, pieces of evidence, and important materials that were being revealed recently would be included in the book. This is not the type of work I wanted to rush or publish incomplete, especially when new pieces were still emerging that directly strengthened and completed the larger picture. I will also be traveling next month in'shāʾAllāh to gather some of the final pieces needed for this project, and from July until the end of the year, I intend to dedicate a major portion of my time to completing, organizing, editing, and finalizing the book properly, by the permission of Allah. Alhamdulillāh, despite the delays and difficulties, the book is near completion. By the permission of Allah, I am hoping it can be finalized and published next year. Any support whether through raising, sharing the campaign, making duʿāʾ, or simply helping spread awareness would very much be appreciated and would directly assist in bringing this project to completion. In the next few months, I also plan to share a draft of the table of contents in shāʾ Allāh, while continuing to keep everyone updated on the progress, development, and content of the book as it moves closer to completion. After this book is completed in'shāʾAllāh, I hope to finally focus on completing the rest of the Khawārij Encyclopedia volumes and the other unfinished books and research projects that have been on my list for years. May Allah place barakah in this work, purify the intention behind it, make it sincerely for His sake, and allow it to benefit the Muslims, expose falsehood, clarify truth, and become a means of guidance and protection in a time of confusion. Jazākum Allāhu khayran to everyone who has supported, encouraged, advised, and remained patient. May Allah reward you all with good.

@Salafization1 Please check DMs

A blameworthy habit that some of our brothers from Ahl al-Sunnah unfortunately fall into: constantly breaking appointments, poor communication, delaying people, treating promises casually, and failing to even apologize, excuse themselves, or follow up. This is not fitting for a Muslim, let alone a student of knowledge! Allah al-Mustaʿān
