The Shaykh : Praise is to Allah; we praise Him, seek His help, and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our own souls and from the badness of our deeds. Whoever Allah guides, no one can mislead, and whoever He misleads, no one can guide. And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and His messenger. [Ali 'Imran 3:102] [An-Nisa 4:1] [Al-Ahzab 33:70-71]
As for what follows: The best of speech is the speech of Allah, the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and the worst of matters are their innovations. Every innovation is a religious innovation, every religious innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Fire.
As we have mentioned once or more than once, one of the means of receiving knowledge is for each individual to ask about what concerns him regarding the Islamic jurisprudence that pertains to him personally, based on the saying of Allah the Exalted:[An-Nahl 16:43] and His saying (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) in the well-known hadith: Now, we will receive some questions to proceed to answering them to the extent that Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) facilitates for me and grants me success in answering them, and the one who is sought for help is Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He).
O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims [in submission to Him].
يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله حق تقاته ولا تموتن إلا وأنتم مسلمونO mankind, fear your Lord, who created you from one soul and created from it its mate and dispersed from both of them many men and women. And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the wombs. Indeed Allah is ever, over you, an Observer.
يا أيها الناس اتقوا ربكم الذي خلقكم من نفس واحدة وخلق منها زوجها وبث منهما رجالا كثيرا ونساء واتقوا الله الذي تساءلون به والأرحام إن الله كان عليكم رقيبا(70) O you who have believed, fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice. (71) He will [then] amend for you your deeds and forgive you your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly attained a great attainment.
يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله وقولوا قولا سديدا يصلح لكم أعمالكم ويغفر لكم ذنوبكم ومن يطع الله ورسوله فقد فاز فوزا عظيماAs for what follows: The best of speech is the speech of Allah, the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and the worst of matters are their innovations. Every innovation is a religious innovation, every religious innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Fire.
As we have mentioned once or more than once, one of the means of receiving knowledge is for each individual to ask about what concerns him regarding the Islamic jurisprudence that pertains to him personally, based on the saying of Allah the Exalted:
So ask the people of the message if you do not know.
فاسألوا أهل الذكر إن كنتم لا تعلمونWhy did they not ask when they were ignorant? For the cure of ignorance is asking.
ألا سألوا حين جهلوا فإنما شفاء العي السؤال
