Keep it simple:
If there is no reference, then do not share it, as well as avoid clicking on the "like" button.
Over the years, it has been noticed that many brothers post statements (in the form of text or picture) and attribute it to a scholar on their wall/page without mentioning the reference. And upon verifying, it turns out that that statement is wrongly attributed to that scholar. Even if the statement is correct in its meaning, it is improper to attribute it to a person who has never said it.
I have seen statements being attributed to the Companions like Alee, Ibn
Abbaas and others رضي الله عنهم or to scholars like Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn al-Qayyim, Hasan al-Basree, Ibn Baaz, al-Albaanee رحمهم الله without a proper reference so that one could verify them.
I personally believe that a person who does not quote the reference is being insincere. And I avoid sharing or clicking on the "like" button if I did not or could not verify the post.
There are four issues that comes our way:
1. Statement is quoted without the reference.
2. Statement is correct but the referencing is wrong.
3. Reference is correct but the statement is wrong.
4. Statement is wrong and the reference is wrong.
🔘 How to identify what your state will be like in the grave?
🎓 Ibn al-Qayyim said:
❝The state of a person in the grave will be like the state of the heart in the chest; in bliss or facing punishment, imprisoned or roaming freely. If you want to know what your state in the grave will be like, then look at the state of your heart in your chest.
💠 If the your heart is filled with joy and tranquility, and is pure (clean from pride, envy and other evils) - then by the Will of Allaah, the same will be your state in the grave. And it's opposite is also true.
💠 This is why you find that a person - who is obedient (to Allaah), and has good manners (with the creation), and who is forgiving (and kind) - to be the most tranquil (and at rest).
💠 Faith takes away distress, removes the grief, and it (Faith) is the coolness of the eyes of the one upon Tawheed (monotheism), and (the means of) comfort for the worshipers.
➡️ Whoever is preoccupied with Tasbeeh (saying: Sub-haan Allaah), his private affairs will be taken care of.
➡️ And whoever is preoccupied with al-Hamd (saying: alhamdulillaah), he will be given bounties one after the other.
➡️ And whoever is preoccupied with al-Istighfaar, the locked (doors) will be opened for him.❞
📚 [al-Daa' wal-Dawaa' (1/187-188)]
🎓Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said (paraphrased):
❝When Allaah تعالى intends good for His slave, He تعالى removes from his heart the remembrance of the good deeds that he had done (so that pride doesn't overtake him), and He تعالى prevents his tongue from speaking about his good deeds (so that he doesn't boast about it to others), and He تعالى keeps him preoccupied with remembering his sins (so that he frequently seeks Allaah's forgiveness for his actions), and this feeling (of remorse for his misdeeds) remains with him till he enters the Jannah.❞

Allaah تعالى also said:
هُوَ الَّذِي يُسَيِّرُكُمْ فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ ۖ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا كُنتُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ وَجَرَيْنَ بِهِم بِرِيحٍ طَيِّبَةٍ وَفَرِحُوا بِهَا جَاءَتْهَا رِيحٌ عَاصِفٌ وَجَاءَهُمُ الْمَوْجُ مِن كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ أُحِيطَ بِهِمْ ۙ دَعَوُا اللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ لَئِنْ أَنجَيْتَنَا مِنْ هَٰذِهِ لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الشَّاكِرِينَ * فَلَمَّا أَنجَاهُمْ إِذَا هُمْ يَبْغُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ ۗ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّمَا بَغْيُكُمْ عَلَىٰ أَنفُسِكُم ۖ مَّتَاعَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيْنَا مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَنُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
{He it is Who enables you to travel through land and sea, till when you are in the ships and they sail with them with a favorable wind, and they are glad therein, then comes a stormy wind and the waves come to them from all sides, and they think that they are encircled therein, they invoke Allaah, making their Faith pure for Him Alone, saying: "If You (Allaah) deliver us from this, we shall truly be of the grateful. But when He delivered them, behold! They rebel (disobey Allaah) in the earth wrongfully. O mankind! Your rebellion (disobedience to Allaah) is only against your ownselves, - a brief enjoyment of this worldly life, then (in the end) unto Us is your return, and We shall inform you that which you used to do.}
📚[Surah Yunus (10):22-23]
6️⃣ This is why Abdul Rahmaan Ibn
Auf رضي الله عنه said: ❝We were tested along with the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ by adversity, so we were patient, then we were tested after him with prosperity, but we were not patient.❞
👉Meaning: We could not fully thank Allaah, as was due to Him, during times of ease and prosperity.
7️⃣ This is why, when a person receives the luxuries of the world, he does not know whether this is good for him or a plot against him. He is deceived beyond reason.
8️⃣ So, when Allaah prevents you from worldly luxuries, it is for your own good. He تعالى knows best that were He to bestow it upon you, it would lead to your destruction, and that you would become ungrateful, and not fulfill Allaah’s rights as is due to Him.
9️⃣ So many people were granted the goodness (luxuries of this world), but its end turned out to be evil for them! They were poor, used to humble themselves to Allaah, invoke Allaah earnestly, and used to raise their hands (in supplication). They had a close relationship with their Lord, (supplicating to Allaah) all the time, “O Allaah! Provide for us!”, “O Allaah! (Help us) repay our loans!” But when Allaah expanded for them and provided them the luxuries, they hardly remembered Allaah except a little.

Whenever the topic of Bidah comes up, to counter the argument, many come up with questions like:
Ibaadah in themselves.
"Did the Prophet ﷺ travel in a ship?
Did the Salaf travel in cars and planes?
Prove from the Sunnah that it is permissible to eat fried chicken?"
One has to understand that vehicles, planes, and ships are used only as a means to reach the destination, they are not part of
When we talk about Bidah, we are referring to innovations in the Deen only. We are not referring to innovations in Science and Technology.
Ibaadah (Worship), everything is Haraam/not allowed unless proven from the Qur’aan and Sunnah.
Anyways, to get to the point, if the people would commit to memory these two principles, they would protect their Deen and save themselves from doubts and confusion.
The First Principle:
In the matters of
And the evidence for this is the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: ❝whosoever does an action which we have not commanded then it will be rejected.❞
And also: ❝whosoever introduces into this religion of ours that which is not part of it then it must be rejected.❞
And there are many more Ahaadeeth.
The Second Principle:
And in the matters of customs (food, clothing etc.), everything is allowed unless prohibited in the Qur’aan and Sunnah.
And the evidence for this is the saying of Allaah تعالى :
{Say: "Who has forbidden the adornment of Allaah which He has produced for His servants and the good [lawful] things of provision?"} [Surah al-A`raaf]
And Allaah is the One who Grants success.
Al-Hasan al-Basree used to say:
"A believer combines between doing good deeds and fear [that his good deeds might not be accepted], whereas a hypocrite combines between evil deeds and hope [that he will be forgiven even if he did not repent]. He then recited: {Verily! Those who live in awe for fear of their Lord}”
[Tafseer al-Tabaree (17/68)]
[Surah al-Mu’minoon (23): 57]
💠 Even the people of Hellfire will not enter the Hellfire till they receive complete justice for their sufferings at the hands of others in this world!
Jaabir Ibn Abdullaah رضي الله عنهما said: I purchased a camel and rode it hard for a month until I reached Syria as
Abdullaah Ibn Unays رضي الله عنه was living there, and I sent word to him, saying: "Jaabir is at the door." The messenger returned and said: "Jaabir Ibn Abdullaah?" "Yes", I replied. So
Abdullaah came out and embraced me. I said: "A Hadeeth reached me which I had not heard before and I feared that one of us might die." He (Abdullaah Ibn Unays) went on: "I heard the Prophet ﷺ say: ❝Allaah will gather His slaves,
Uraah (naked), Ghurlaa (uncircumcised), Buhma (without anything).❞ We asked: "What is meant by Buhma (without anything)?" The Prophet ﷺ said: ❝They will have nothing with them.❞ (The Prophet went on,) ❝They will be called by a voice that is heard from afar, saying: {I am the King. None of the people of Paradise will enter Paradise while someone from the people of the Fire is seeking him for an injustice he did to him. And none of the people of the Fire will enter the Fire while someone from the people of Paradise is seeking him for an injustice he did to him.}❞ I asked: "How (will a person compensate for the injustice) while we will come to Allaah naked and without any worldly goods?"

Abu Hurairah narrated that Allaah's Messenger ﷺ said: ❝Do you know who is a bankrupt?❞ They (the Companions) said: "The bankrupt amongst us is he who has neither dirham with him nor wealth." He ﷺ said: ❝The real bankrupt of my Ummah would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrection with Salaah (prayers), Siyaam (Fasting), and Zakaah (charity) but (he would find himself bankrupt on that day as he would have exhausted his good deeds) because he hurled abuses upon others, brought calumny against others, unlawfully devoured the wealth of others, shed the blood of others, and beat others; so his good deeds would be credited to the account of those (who suffered at his hand). If his good deeds fall short of clearing the account, then their sins would be entered into his account and he would be thrown into the (Hell) Fire.❞

The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:
❝Allaah تعالى says: {I am with My slave whenever he remembers Me and moves his lips with My remembrance.}❞

📑 While many Sufees consider that doing Dhikr is from the actions of the heart and not the tongue. So their fingers will be moving with the "prayer" beads while they are having a conversation with some other person.
💠 Ithaaf al-Muslim bi Sharh Hisn al-Muslim min Adhkaar al-Kitaab wal-Sunnah
(Gifting A Muslim With Explanation Of Fortress Of The Muslim
👉 Author’s Introduction:
Shaikh Saeed Ibn
Alee Ibn Wahf al-Qahtaanee رحمه الله wrote:
Indeed, all praise is for Allaah, we praise Him, and we seek His help, and we seek His forgiveness, and we seek refuge with Allaah from the evils of our souls, and from the evil consequences of our bad deeds. Whoever Allaah guides, then here is none to lead him astray, and whomever He تعالى misleads, then there is no guide for him. I testify that none has the right to be worshiped but Allaah alone, He has no partners! And I testify that Muhammad is His Slave and His Messenger. May peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him, his family, his companions, and all those who follow then upon righteousness, till the Day of Judgment!
To proceed…
This book is an exposition of Hisn al-Muslim min Adhkaar al-Kitaab wal-Sunnah (Fortress of a Muslim through invocations from the Book and Sunnah). In this book, I have explained the Ahaadeeth that I had mentioned in Hisn al-Muslim, and they are two hundred and sixty-seven (267) Ahaadeeth, in addition to that, the nine (9) Ahaadeeth that have been mentioned in the introduction about the virtues of doing Allaah’s remembrance. In total, they are two hundred seventy-six (276) Ahaadeeth. In explaining the book, I incorporated the following points:
1. (In this book) I mentioned the text of the Hadeeth as appears in Hisn al-Muslim at the top of the page, then I cited the source of the Hadeeth in the footnotes, and I mentioned the scholars who had authenticated this Hadeeth if the Hadeeth is not from Saheeh al-Bukhaaree or Saheeh Muslim.
2. I wrote the word: “Sharh” to distinguish the text of Hisn al-Muslim from the explanation.
3. In the explanation section, I mentioned the wordings of the Hadeeth, beginning with the name of the Companion till the end of the Hadeeth, and I followed this pattern in all the Ahaadeeth that I have mentioned in the explanation section. Then I mentioned several other Ahaadeeth if there were some additional benefits in them. Then I briefly mentioned the source of each narration, as well as the statements of those who spoke about it from the people of knowledge. The total number of Ahaadeeth that have been mentioned in the explanation section reached about one thousand eighty-one (1081) Ahaadeeth.
4. I have explained all the words, expressions, and terminologies found in these narrations, irrespective of whether they are common or not so common. And I quoted the explanations as found in the main books explaining the Sunnah (Ahaadeeth), and books on the (Arabic) language, and exegeses of the Qur’aan, from the trustworthy sources which have been accepted by the scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah. Furthermore, if a word or expression is mentioned that was already explained before, I tried to briefly explain it again along with mentioning the reference to previous occurrence. I benefited a lot from the works, comments, and lectures of our Shaikh, the Imaam, Abdul
Azeez Ibn Abdullah Ibn Baaz رحمه الله, as well as from the works of the noble scholar, Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Saaleh al-
Uthaymeen رحمه الله, as well as the earlier explanations of Hisn al-Muslim (by other authors). [1]
5. I have also mentioned a short biography of the Companion who narrated that Hadeeth in the explanation section. Later on, if the name of the same Companion comes up, then the reference to the earlier biography is mentioned.
6. Thereafter, I mentioned the points of benefits derived from these various narrations, and I mentioned the statements of some of the scholars and the benefits they mentioned, as much as Allaah عز وجل allowed me.
7. I have made seven knowledge-based indexes:
In this world, Good life is: Being able to worship Allaah تعالى, follow the Sunnah of His Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and finding joy in that.
Читать полностью…He named his book as: Ithaaf al-Muslim bi Sharh Hisn al-Muslim (Gifting A Muslim With Explanation Of Fortress Of The Muslim) in around two thousand pages.
In his book, the author رحمه الله, first mentioned the original Du`aa or Dhikr as mentioned in Hisn al-Muslim, then he mentioned the complete Hadeeth for this, then he mentioned other Ahaadeeth which were similar to this narration but had slight different wording. He would then mention the source of theses narrations and discuss their authenticity. Then he would go on to explain the meaning of the words in the narration, and then he would go for a detailed explain, and what it means, and what it entails, the rulings derived from this Hadeeth, and beneficial points from this Hadeeth.

✔ If your time and wealth is spent in the obedience of Allaah and your family supports you in it, then know that you have been blessed in your time, wealth and family.
🚫 But if your time, wealth and family prevents you from the obedience of Allaah or they are utilized in HIS disobedience, then know that you have NOT been blessed in them. Rather, they have become a trial for you.

As Allaah تعالى says (interpretation of the meaning):
❝{O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers.}❞
📚 [Surah al-Munaafiqoon (63): 9]
And also:
❝{Your wealth and your children are only a trial, whereas Allah! With Him is a great reward (Paradise).}❞

💠 When the Qadr of Allaah takes place (i.e. when a calamity befalls), the sight is blinded and the caution is thrown to the wind.
➡️ If Allaah تعالى has written for a thing to happen, will it happen or not happen?
It will happen!
Irrespective of how much one tries and whatever he does, and irrespective of how rich he is and how much he spends to avert it, he cannot avert the Qadr of Allaah, it is impossible!
Look at the story of Moosaa عليه السلام and Firaoun. Some of the fortunetellers or those who saw the dream approached Fir
aoun and said to him that your destruction will be at the hands of the child from Banee Israaeel.
Regarding dreams there are two occurrences, either it is false and it will not harm you, or it is true and it will happen no matter what you do.
So Firaoun, his intelligence deceived him and he started killing all the male infants from the tribes of Banee Israaeel so that the one who will be the reason for his destruction is killed and the threat eliminated.
aoun; and he (Fir
But that child (Moosaa عليه السلام) was born, and was nurtured and raised in the house of the one who tried to kill him - Firaoun) spent on him from his wealth, and let him live in his palace.
aoun was at the hands of whom?! At the hands of the same child whom he had tried to kill.
Then when Moosaa عليه السلام grew up, he went to Madyan and stayed there for as long as Allaah Willed him to stay there. Then he returned to Egypt. So, the reason for the destruction of Fir
Nothing can avert the Qadr of Allaah.
There are things which Allaah plants deeply in a person’s heart and that person cannot remove it except by doing it.
When Moosaa عليه السلام along with the Banee Israaeel left the land of Egypt, where was Firaoun? He was in Egypt, the land which he ruled, and those in Egypt used to worship him. The best for him was to let Moosaa عليه السلام go away, as he was already leaving, and Fir
aoun would have his kingdom for himself, and he would live therein, and the people to worship him.
Irrespective of all this, something lingered in his heart. So, he and those who were with him and his army were made to leave their land and chase Moosaa عليه السلام. As Allaah تعالى said:
فَأَخْرَجْنَاهُم مِّن جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ * وَكُنُوزٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
{So We removed them from gardens and springs; and treasures and honorable station...}
📚 [Surah al-Shuaraa (26): 57-58]
aoun and his people by their hands and made them to come out of their houses. Rather, Allaah instilled the desire in the heart of Fir
Allaah تعالى did not sent Angels to take Firaoun and those who were with him and made it easy for them to go on the chase for Moosaa عليه السلام and the Banee Israaeel. So, they did not go out to benefit themselves, but they went out to their own destruction and death.
l
Similarly, when Allaah wishes good for his slave, He تعالى instills love in his heart to do good.
Sometimes, you see a person is more desirous than you to do good, even though you are stronger than him physically. The question is not about: “from where he got this strength?” Rather, the question is: “from where did he get this desire to do good?”
Allaah creates the desires in the hearts of His slaves and assists them in doing good, when He تعالى knows the sincerity of their intentions, and truthfulness of their faith.

📑 Note:
Abu Hurairah reported: The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said: “A strong believer is better and dearer to Allaah than a weak one, and both are good. Adhere to that which is beneficial for you. Keep asking Allaah for help and do not refrain from it. If you are afflicted in any way, do not say: “If I had taken this or that step, it would have resulted into such and such”, but say only:
قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ
Qaddara-llaahu, wa maa shaa’ fa
(It is the decree of Allah and what He wills He does)
The word 'if' opens the gates of satanic thoughts.”

The Trials Through Good And Evil
https://ilm4all.blogspot.com/2023/09/the-trials-through-good-and-evil.html
⚡️The Trials Through Good And Evil:
(Or The Trials Through Prosperity And Poverty)
Allaah سبحانه وتعالى said:
﴿كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَآئِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَنَبْلُوكُم بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً وَإِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ ﴾
{Everyone is going to taste death, and We shall test you with evil and with good by way of trial. And to Us you will be returned}
📚[Surah al-Anbiyaa (21): 35]
🎓Ibn Rajab رحمه الله commented, saying:
"Allaah تعالى has made everything that afflicts a person – either good or bad – a Fitnah (trial), meaning it is a calamity by which everyone will be put to test.
If he is provided with (worldly) goods, it is a must that he be grateful (to Allaah).
And if he is afflicted with harm, then it is a must that he be patient.
The trial through good times is more severe than the trial through adversity.
`Abdul Rahmaan Ibn Auf رضي الله عنه said: ❝We were tested along with the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ by adversity, so we were patient, then we were tested after him with prosperity, but we were not patient.❞
📚[Sunan al-Tirmidhee (2464) and graded as “Hasan” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]
Some of them said: “When afflicted with harm and calamities, both the pious and wicked can endure them with patience, but no one can be patient during the trials through good times except for the one who is true (in Faith).”"
📚(الجامع لتفسير الإمام ابن رجب الحنبلي) 2/210
📝 NOTES:
A burden that one bears is also called a trial due to several factors:
1️⃣ The burden – all of it – is hard on the body, physically and psychologically. In this sense, it is a test of a person’s physical and mental strength.
2️⃣ It is an examination of one’s Faith, firmness and determination, and truthfulness, as Allaah تعالى said:
وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُمْ حَتَّىٰ نَعْلَمَ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ مِنكُمْ وَالصَّابِرِينَ وَنَبْلُوَ أَخْبَارَكُمْ
{And We will surely test you until We make evident those who strive among you [for the cause of Allaah] and (make evident those who are) the patient ones, and We will test your affairs (i.e. who is a liar and who is truthful)}
📚[Surah Muhammad (47):31]
3️⃣ Sometimes Allaah تعالى tests His slaves with ease and prosperity so that they should be grateful to Allaah and thank Him for His favors, and other times He تعالى tests them with adversities and hardships so that they should be patient. So, the ordeals and favors are all trials. During difficulties, a person is required to have patience; and during good times a person is required to show his appreciation to Allaah for it through obedience.
As the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:
❝How wonderful is the case of a believer; for all his affairs are good for him, and this applies only to a believer. If something good happens to him, he is thankful for it and that is good for him; if something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience and that is good for him.❞
📚[Saheeh Muslim (7138), Kitaab al-Zuhd]
4️⃣ Fulfilling the rights of Allaah through patience during hardship is easier than fulfilling the rights of Allaah through gratitude and appreciation during times of prosperity. This is why receiving favors is a more severe trial of the two.
5️⃣ Allaah تعالى has repeated this many times in the Qur’aan, every time a person faces hardship, he calls upon Allaah sincerely, standing or sitting or lying down. But the moment his difficulties are removed by Allaah, he becomes disobedient, ungrateful and arrogant:
وَإِذَا مَسَّ الْإِنسَانَ الضُّرُّ دَعَانَا لِجَنبِهِ أَوْ قَاعِدًا أَوْ قَائِمًا فَلَمَّا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُ ضُرَّهُ مَرَّ كَأَن لَّمْ يَدْعُنَا إِلَىٰ ضُرٍّ مَّسَّهُ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ زُيِّنَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
{And when harm touches man, he invokes Us, lying down on his side, or sitting or standing. But when We have removed his harm from him, he passes on his way as if he had never invoked Us for a harm that touched him! Thus it seems fair to the transgressors that which they used to do.}

🌟 Forbiddance of hanging amulets, strings or beads as a means of protection 🌟
Even in this age we still find people hanging black or red threads and other amulets around themselves and their children in order to protect them from the evil eye and the evil devil…
Whereas Allaah تعالى says:
وَمَا يُؤْمِنُ أَكْثَرُهُمْ بِاللَّهِ إِلاَّ وَهُمْ مُّشْرِكُونَ
{And most of them believe not in Allaah except that they attribute partners unto Him.} 📚 [Surah Yusuf (12): 106]

Imaam Ibn Katheer reported in his Tafseer: Hammad bin Salamah narrated that Aasim bin Abi An-Najood said that
Urwah said: ❝Hudhaifah رضي الله عنه visited an ill man and saw a string tied around his arm, so he ripped it off while reciting: {And most of them believe not in Allaah except that they attribute partners unto Him}.❞ 📚 [Tafseer Ibn Katheer]

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ❝Verily, Ar-Ruqa [1], At-Tamaa’im [2], and At-Tiwalah [3] are all Shirk.❞ 📚 [Mustadrak al-Haakim (7505) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee in al-Saheehah (2972).
🔥 NOTE for the students of knowledge: The Hadeeth with a longer narration is also mentioned in Sunan Abu Dawood (3883) and Sunan Ibn Maajah (3530) with the discussion between Ibn Mas`ood and his wife رضي الله عنهما on how Shaitaan tricks the people into committing Shirk. But the Chain of the narration mentioned in these two books are weak. Shaikh al-Albaanee had initially authenticated this narration in al-Saheehah (331), but then he retracted and graded it as Weak. See the discussion under Hadeeth (2972) in al-Saheehah]

📑 Shaikh al-Albaanee explained the meaning of these words:
🚩 Ar-Ruqa: Incantations containing Shirk, or by seeking help from the Jinn, or its meaning is unintelligible and obscure, like writing cryptically or with words which have no meaning like: (يا كبيج).
🚩 Tameemah: Amulets that are worn. Its origin is the beads which the Arabs used to hang on the heads of (small) children to protect them from the evil eye. The meaning of this is vast and it includes everything which is worn or hanged as protection. Example: hanging horseshoe on the entrance door or inside the house; or hanging amulet (of the “eye”) in the cars, or amulets containing Aayaat from the Qur’aan which the people hang around themselves or their children etc.
🚩 At-Tiwalah: Spells that make people fall in love, or make the woman love her husband etc.
📚 [Al-Saheehah (331, 1/649-650)]
After receiving guidance, the best supplication one can make is asking Allaah for firmness upon the Deen. For Ibraaheem عليه السلام had supplicated, saying:
وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبِّ اجْعَلْ هَـٰذَا الْبَلَدَ آمِنًا وَاجْنُبْنِي وَبَنِيَّ أَن نَّعْبُدَ الْأَصْنَامَ
{And (remember) when Ibraaheem said: “O my Lord! Make this city (Makkah) one of peace and security, and keep me and my sons away from worshipping idols.”} [Surah Ibraaheem (14): 35]
Ibraaheem عليه السلام feared for himself from worshiping the idols, even though he was the one who broke the idols and shattered them with his own hands, because of which he suffered the punishment and humiliation at the hands of his people, all this for the sake of Allaah, yet he is supplicating:
وَاجْنُبْنِى وَبَنِىَّ أَن نَّعْبُدَ الاٌّصْنَام
{(O Allaah!) …and keep me and my sons away from worshiping idols} [Surah Ibraaheem (14): 35]
He did not say: “I am now saved”. Rather, he requested Allaah to protect him and his sons from worshiping the idols. A man should fear his Lord at all times. How many guided people have gone astray? And how many people have deviated from the Straight Path? How many Believers have become Kaafir and apostates? And how many deviants have been guided by Allaah? And how many Kuffaar have become Muslims? Verily, the matter is in the Hands of Allaah, He guides whom He Wills.

I ask Allaah تعالى to help people benefit through this explanation, as well as the original book, and through the explanations written by others. I beseech Allaah تعالى that He makes this explanation a blessed and beneficial work, sincerely for His sake, and that through it, He تعالى benefits me in this world and after my death.
May Allaah تعالى benefit everyone who beseeches Him and asks Him for their need, for indeed He تعالى is the Best One to ask, and the Most Generous One to have hope in, for Allaah (alone) is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of all (our) affairs. There is no might and no power except (through the help) of Allaah. And peace and blessings of Allaah be upon His Prophet and Messenger, the best one among His creation, and the most trustworthy in conveying the revelation, our Prophet, Muhammad ﷺ, and his family, his companions, and all those who tread their path till the Day of Judgment.

Introduction by the Translator:
The Book “Hisn al-Muslim” (حصن المسلم – Fortress Of The Muslim) needs no introduction. It has become a household name for every Muslim who loves the authentic Sunnah. For the past few decades it has been a go-to book for many Muslims who wanted to learn the authentic Adiyah (sing. Du
aa, supplications) and Adhkaar (Allaah’s remembrance) that are intended to be said at certain times and places.
Among the first books that were written on this subject of Duaa and Dhikr, was
Amal al-Yaum wal-Lailah by Imaam Abu Abdul Rahmaan al-Nasaa’ee رحمه الله. Then his student, Ibn Sunnee رحمه الله, also wrote a book and named it
Amal al-Yaum wal-Lailah. Al-Nawawee رحمه الله also wrote a book, entitled: al-Adhkaar. Shaikh al-Islaam, Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله, also wrote a book, entitled: al-Kalim al-Tayyib, and Shaikh al-Albaanee رحمه الله also did a checking for this book, and it is now printed as: Saheeh al-Kalim al-Tayyib. Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله also wrote a book, entitled: al-Waabil al-Sayyib. Then in recent times, many other books on Adhkaar were written, among them is Hisn al-Muslim.
From the books that have been written in recent times, no other book has received such a vast audience and a widespread acceptance from people around the world like Hisn al-Muslim. There is no house and no Masjid, except that you will find a copy of this book therein, and all praise is for Allaah alone. The book was first published in the year 1409H (1988) by its author, Shaikh Saeed Ibn
Alee Ibn Wahf al-Qahtaanee رحمه الله. By Allaah’s permission, in this short span of time millions of people benefited from this book. It has been printed a numerous times, and in various languages, and millions of copies have been sold or distributed for free. People realized the importance of this book so much so that that there is no major language except that this book has been translated into that language. So far, the book has been translated into 40+ languages. This is the favor of Allaah which He bestows on whom He wills from His slaves.
The pocket-size of the book helped the people to carry it with them wherever they went. Many people memorized the Adiyah and Adhkaar in this book and made their children to memorize them as well.

To make the book concise and for the easy readability for the common people, the author رحمه الله gathered the narrations without mentioning the chains of narration or the names of the narrators. He limited it to the authentic narrations from the Saheehain, al-Bukhaaree and Muslim, or what the scholars had authenticated, especially Shaikh al-Albaanee and Shaikh Ibn Baaz رحمهم الله. He would mention the source of the narration in the footnotes, as well as the names of the scholars who had authenticated that narration.
One of the most important feature of this book is the arrangement of the Adiyah.
eed al-Qahtaanee رحمه الله, decided to write a detailed explanation (Sharh) to his own book, and this was two years before his death. He embarked on this task, especially, after a few explanations were already written by others, some of which were really short commentaries. He رحمه الله went through a few of these explanations and commentaries and decided to combine them and write a more detailed explanation and correct the errors that were found in those other explanations. He added more narrations to his explanation from the books of Sunan, and from the books of the scholars, especially the commentaries, explanations, and preferences of Shaikh Ibn Baaz, Shaikh Ibn al-`Uthaymeen and others رحمهم الله.
Nearly thirty years after the book was first published, the author, Sa
