#Moosaa

[aysufs]

Greet the people with a pleasant smile, as opposed to frowning at them.

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Do not look down on any act of kindness,

even if it is just meeting your brother with a pleasant smile on your face."*

A pleasant smile causes people to become happy,

wins over their love and affection,

and leads to both parties having good thoughts of each other.

Just try it and you will see!

Sahih Muslim (2626) on the authority of Abu Tharr (radiyAllāhu'anhu)

Upright Moral Character by Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen Translated by Moosaa Richardson, T•R•O•I•D Publications, P. 39

[coffeeandmusk]

Prophet Moosaa was black.

And put your hand into the opening of your garment (at the breast); it will come out white without disease.

Soorah an-Naml (v. 12)

Imām Al-Ṭabarī: Moosaa was black skinned and Allaah made Moosaa’s hand turning white, without being affected by leprosy, a sign for him.

{Tafṣīr at-Ṭabarī 29:12}

[ukht-zxy]

⛔A REAL EYE-OPENER: UPSET WITH THE QADR OF ALLAAH?⛔

Ibn al-Qayyim said,

“Inspect yourself – Are you innocent?!”

I remind myself and my brothers and sisters in Islaam to sincerely think about the following statements and ponder over how distant we are from them in reality:

“That’s just great! This is why I hate Mondays!”

“What is wrong with this laptop? Another virus!! And of course this would happen NOW, when I have all this important work to finish!!”

“The car seems to break down every time I’m running late!”

“My stupid cellphone keeps shutting down…!”

“Oh great! One more red light! As if I’m not late enough!”

“I stoved my toe on that stupid table!”

These small everyday trials we face and the emotions we react with are all part of our personal test. Our reactions, beliefs, and statements are all being recorded!

With the above mentioned complaints and reactions, who are we actually displeased with? We know that the table didn’t do anything to our toe, right? We know that cars, cellphones, and laptops don’t actually choose to do things to harm us in reality, right?

So then, again – WHO or WHAT are we really displeased with when uttering these kinds of statements?

We desperately need our spouses, friends, and companions to remind us, quite simply, with the following question:

Are you unhappy with the Qadr of Allaah?

Let us replace the bad reactions mentioned with the very best guidance available, the guidance of the Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam):

وإن أصابك شيء فلا تقل لو أني فعلت كذا لكان كذا وكذا لكن قل قدر الله وما شاء فعل…

“…And if something (bad) befalls you, do not say, ‘Had I only done such-and-such, then such-and-such would have happened, rather say: Qadrullaahi, wa maa shaa’ fa’ala (This is from the Qadr of Allaah, and He does whatever He wills).” [Muslim]

Let us affirm everything we face as the Qadr of Allaah, submit to Allaah being pleased with the trial He (and no one else) has chosen for us, and be afraid of a bad reaction that would be written against us and handed to us on the Day of Account.

The Dua for the Day of Arafah and it’s meaning - by Shaykh Moosaa Richardson حفظه الله @1MMeducation

[veiledwithvalue]

The sad story of ‘Imran ibn Hittaan

There was an interesting individual from the time of the Tabi’een, whose name was ‘Imran ibn Ḥiṭṭān. Both Imam al-Dhahabi and Imam Ibn Kathir mentioned his biography in their historical works.

▪️ Ibn Kathir, in his massive work of history, al-Bidayah w’al-Nihayah, summarized ibn Ḥiṭṭān’s biography by writing:

عمران بن حطان الخارجي، كان أولا من أهل السنة والجماعة فتزوج امرأة من الخوارج حسنة جميلة جدا فأحبها. وكان هو دميم الشكل، فأراد أن يردها إلى السنة فأبت فارتد معها إلى مذهبها

“‘Imran ibn Ḥiṭṭān al-Khaarijee. He was originally among Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa’ah, but then he married a woman from the Khawaarij who was extremely beautiful, so he loved her. And he himself was ugly and misshapen. So he intended to return her to the sunnah, but she adamantly refused, so he apostatized with her to her way (i.e. became a Khaarijee after have been a scholar of Ahl al-Sunnah!).”

📚 [al-Bidayah w’al-Nihayah 9/64]

▪︎Imam al-Dhahabi wrote about him saying:

من أعيان العلماء ، لكنه من رؤوس الخوارج . حدث عن عائشة ، وأبي موسى الأشعري ، وابن عباس . روى عنه : ابن سيرين ، وقتاده ، ويحيى بن أبي كثير

He was one of the most immanent scholars, however he was one of the leaders of the Khawaarij. He narrated from ‘Aa’ishah, Abu Moosaa al-Ash’ari, and ibn ‘Abbaas. And those who narrated from him were: ibn Sireen, Qataadah, and Yahya ibn abi Kathir.

قال أبو داود : ليس في أهل الأهواء أصح حديثا من الخوارج ، ثم ذكر عمران بن حطان ، وأبا حسان الأعرج.

▪︎Abu Dawood said, “From among the people of desires, none are more authentic in terms of narrating hadeeth than the Khawaarij“, he then mentioned ‘Imran ibn Ḥiṭṭān and Abu Hasaan al-‘Aaraj.

Salamah ibn ‘Alqamah narrated that ibn Sireen said, “‘Imran married a Khaarijee woman, and he said, ‘I will change her (back to ahl al-sunnah)’, but she converted him to her way.'”

Then al-Madaa’ini mentioned that she was very beautiful, and he was extremely ugly. Then she amazed him one day (with her beauty), so she said, ‘You and I will be in Jannah, because you were blessed (with a beautiful wife) and were grateful, and I was tested (with an unattractive husband) and was patient.’

📚 [Siyar ‘Alaam an-Nubala’ 4/213]

After mentioning these quotes, it is useful to remember the guidance of the Prophet concerning marriage when he encouraged us to prioritize deen as a factor is selecting a spouse by saying:

تُنْكَحُ النِّسَاءُ لأَرْبَعَةٍ لِمَالِهَا وَلِحَسَبِهَا وَلِجَمَالِهَا وَلِدِينِهَا فَاظْفَرْ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ

“Women are married for four things: their wealth, their nobility, their beauty and their deen (religious commitment). Choose the one who is religiously committed, may your be successful.”

[al-Bukhari and Muslim]

And he also said:

الرَّجُلُ عَلَى دِينِ خَلِيلِهِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ أَحَدُكُمْ مَنْ يُخَالِلُ

“A man is upon the deen of his close companion, so carefully consider whom you take as a close companion.”

[al-Tirmidhi #2378, Saheeh]

And there is no closer companion than a spouse. May Allah protect us from the trials of a deviant spouse.

[quranjournals]

Forgive and forget.

Prophet Moosaa asked Allaah: Which of your slaves are most honorable?

Allāh said: The one who has the capability to forgive, then forgives.

OPEN LETTER TO ALL CORRUPT POLITICIANS OF PAKISTAN

Under the order in the Holy Qur’an, Amr bil-Ma'roof and Nahi ‘an-il-Munkar, امر بالمعروف و نہی عن المنکر , it is my duty as a Muslim to enjoin all Muslim Brothers and Sisters to do GOOD and ask them to refrain from doing EVIL.

My Late father, may Allah bless him, Ameen, and reward him with the best place in Jannat-ul-Firdous, Thumma Ameen, used to call Corrupt Politicians قوم فروش اور ضمیر فروش RASCALS, who ran this beautiful Pakistan into ground and made it totally bankrupt.

Your received a beautiful prosperous and progressive, Islamic Republic of Pakistan, but after thirty (30) terrible years, you left behind a Pakistan, which is neither Islamic nor Republic, but an Autocratic Dictatorship, and only you, your party, and your members are responsible for that and you will be answerable for it, also.

The helpless, needy, poor, and simple people of Pakistan were promised Rotee Kapraa and Makaan روٹی کپڑا اور مکان thirty years ago, and they are still waiting for it. Some parties bought their votes for Pak Rupees (pennies) and Biryani made from the meat of dead donkeys without giving them anything in return, Do you think they will vote for them again? I don’t think anyone with common sense will do it again.

All of you have been asking Imran Khan to give an account for the last three (3) years. His accomplishments speak for themselves, but you have never given him the account for the last thirty (30) years.

WATCH!

I earnestly request you to do the following at your earliest convenience before it is too late:

Obey Imran Khan as you have chosen him as the Prime Minister and Allah سبحانہ و تعالٰی has appointed him your Leader. Allah gives honor and kingdom to whom He Will, NOBLE QUR'AN, 3:26.

قُلِ ٱللَّهُمَّ مَـٰلِكَ ٱلْمُلْكِ تُؤْتِى ٱلْمُلْكَ مَن تَشَآءُ وَتَنزِعُ ٱلْمُلْكَ مِمَّن تَشَآءُ وَتُعِزُّ مَن تَشَآءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَآءُ ۖ بِيَدِكَ ٱلْخَيْرُ ۖ إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ ٢٦

Say (O Muhammad SAW): “O Allah! Possessor of the kingdom, You give the kingdom to whom You will, and You take the kingdom from whom You will, and You endue with honour whom You will, and You humiliate whom You will. In Your Hand is the good. Verily, You are Able to do all things. Surah Aal-e-‘Imran 3, Ayah 26

[aysufs]

Ibn Taymiyyah once wrote:

[ففي شريعته من اللين والعفو والصفح ومكارم الأخلاق، أعظم مما في الإنجيل، وفيها من الشدة والجهاد، وإقامة الحدود على الكفار والمنافقين، أعظم مما في التوراة، وهذا هو غاية الكمال؛ ولهذا قال بعضهم: «بعث موسى بالجلال، وبعث عيسى بالجمال، وبعث محمد بالكمال».]

The sharee'ah of the Prophet contains gentleness, clemency, pardoning and good manners to an even greater level than what is in the Injeel.

And it contains sternness, jihaad, and enacting the prescribed punishments against the disbelievers and munafiqoon to an even greater level than what is in the Tawrah.

This is the apex of completeness.

That is why some have said: Moosaa was sent with majesty, 'Eesaa was sent with with beauty, and Muhammad was sent with completeness.

[al-Jawab al-Saheeh 5/86]

[coffeeandmusk]

‎المعجزات

Many scholars stated that Allaah sent every Prophet with a miracle suitable to his time.

For instance, in the time of Moosaa, magic was the trade of the time, and magicians held a high position. So Allaah sent Moosaa with a miracle that captured the eyes and bewildered every magician.

When the magicians realized that Moosaa’s miracle came from the Almighty, Most Great, they embraced Islam and became pious believers.

As for Jesus, he was sent during a time when medicine and knowledge in physics were advancing. Jesus brought them the types of miracles that could not be performed, except by one sent by Allaah.

How can any physician bring life to clay, cure blindness and leprosy and bring back to life those entrapped in the grave?

Muhammad was sent during the time of eloquent people and proficient poets.

He brought them a Book from Allaah; if mankind and the Jinn tried to imitate ten chapters, or even one chapter of it, they will utterly fail in this task, even if they tried to do it by collective cooperation.

This is because the Qur’an is the Word of Allaah and is nothing like that of the creatures.

THE MOST DESERVING OF YOUR GOOD TREATMENT

Sadly enough, many people have good manners when dealing with the people; however, they do not behave well with their families at all. This is a huge mistake and a backwards understanding! How can a person behave well with distant relatives while he has poor manners with those closest to him?!

Maybe such a person will say: "This is because there is no harm if I relax and do not burden myself with good treatment of them, so I behave poorly with them."

To this we reply: This is not correct. Rather, it is the close relatives who are most deserving of your good treatment while you live with them.

I began to write about the best of creation ‎

But my words failed to convey his position

Suffice to say, he was absolute perfection

Yaa Rabb, favour us with his intercession

اللهم تقبّل شفاعة محمد الكبرٰى وارفع درجته العليا واَعطه سؤله فى الاٰخرة والاُولٰى كما اٰتيت إبراهيم وموسٰى

O Allah! Accept the intercession of our Noble Master Muhammad ‎ﷺ which is most weighty, raise him to the highest rank and grant him whatever he has asked for, in this world and in the hereafter just as You granted it to Ibraaheem and Moosaa عليهما السلام.

[i-asifeq]

𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗦 𝗢𝗙 𝗚𝗢𝗢𝗗 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗘𝗥

From the signs of a person's good manners in his dealings with the people is that he is someone easy to be around. His friends and relatives do not find it difficult to deal with him, nor does he make things hard on them. Instead, he brings happiness to their hearts as much as he can, within the confines of Allaah's legislation. This is a limit that must be observed, since there are some people who will not be pleased except with disobedience to Allaah, and Allaah's refuge is sought. It is not befitting that we oblige such people. However, to bring happiness to the people in your life, your friends and relatives, within the confines of the Islaamic Legislation is indeed good character.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said:

"The best of you are the best to his family, and I am the best of you to my family."
