The hadith of Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman: And is there any good after this evil?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: O Shaykh, the hadith of Hudhayfah, Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman: We were in the pre-Islamic age of ignorance and evil, so Allah brought this good; is there any evil after this good? He said: , then he said: And is there any good after this evil? He said: . He said: What is its smoke? He said: . O Shaykh, what is your opinion if we interpret this smoke as calling to Islam through plays, songs, and imitating Western clothing?
The Shaykh: Without a doubt, this is a doubled smoke; because it entered upon the Muslims in the later eras, and then what he understood from the smoke here is the falling short in applying some of the rulings of the Shari'ah, but it is more fitting and more fitting that it be smoke if they innovate many religious innovations and draw near to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) with them, and this innovation becomes most misleading when it takes the place of reciting the Noble Qur'an, and this is as it was in the past among the Sufis, where they would sing their Sufi songs and be content with them instead of singing with the Qur'an; so this will cause history to repeat itself, and the youth will turn away from reciting the Qur'an and singing with it to singing with the songs they call religious or Islamic songs.
Yes
نعمYes, and in it is smoke
نعم ، وفيه دَخَنPeople who guide by other than my guidance, and follow a path other than my path
قوم يهدون بغير هديي ، ويستنُّون بغير سنَّتيThe Shaykh: Without a doubt, this is a doubled smoke; because it entered upon the Muslims in the later eras, and then what he understood from the smoke here is the falling short in applying some of the rulings of the Shari'ah, but it is more fitting and more fitting that it be smoke if they innovate many religious innovations and draw near to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) with them, and this innovation becomes most misleading when it takes the place of reciting the Noble Qur'an, and this is as it was in the past among the Sufis, where they would sing their Sufi songs and be content with them instead of singing with the Qur'an; so this will cause history to repeat itself, and the youth will turn away from reciting the Qur'an and singing with it to singing with the songs they call religious or Islamic songs.
