SERIES: HEROES OF ISLAM

2️⃣
NAME: #SALAHUDDIN AYYUBI"

Salahuddin Ayyubi (known as 'Saladin' in West) was one of the greatest military generals in Islamic history. -1

He was born in the year 1138, he was well known as the epitome of military intelligence in Islamic legacy, next only to Khalid Bin Waleed (r.a). -2

His greatest achievement for which he is hailed as a hero in the entire ummah since his time until now is the liberation of Jerusalem from the shackles of Crusaders.

He was the perfect combination of military might coupled with ascetic essence of Islamic spirituality. -3

His military expeditions neveru hampered him from seeking knowledge, surrounding himself with best scholars of his time and learning from them in utmost humble fashion. -4

In his youth, Salahuddin learned his military tactics from his uncle, Asad Al-Din Shirkuh and was mentored by Sultan Nur Ad-Din, who inspired Salahuddin to unite the muslim ummah. -5

This has to be said.

Classical Muslim scholars and jurists have categorized friendship with NON-MUSLIM into four levels and stages

1) Muwalat or Mawadda: This means to have close and intimate relationship and deep love and affection from one’s heart for a non-Muslim such that

it makes a Muslim unmindful of his faith.

This Mawadda is reserved only for Muslims; hence it is not permitted for a Muslim to have this type of friendship with non-Muslims. The verses of the Qur’an prohibiting Muslims from having intimate and close friendship with non-Muslims,

especially the first verse of Surah al-Mumtahina, is regarding this kind of relationship.

2) Mudarat: This means to express friendship and love only outwardly without having love for them and their beliefs internally. It is a mere outward expression of the first stage (muwalat),

hence it entails being pleasant, friendly, polite and kind towards non-Muslims. It involves expressing good manners, courtesy and good behavior towards fellow human beings.
This kind of relationship with non-Muslims is permitted, as it is reserved for all human beings, whether

Muslim or non-Muslim. This becomes even more important when the objective is to safeguard one’s self from potential harm, invite them towards Islam or when they are one’s guests. The verse of the Qur’an where Allah says “unless you [do so] as a protective measure [in order to]

Islamic Stance on Music [🧵]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Music has been so normalized that “scholars” have even misguided people on it. May Allah forgive us and guide us, aameen.

This will be a long but informative thread on this topic, in shaa’ Allah

Ibn Masud (rAa) said about this ayah: “It is singing, by the one and only God” he repeated it 3x (Tafsir Tabari 11/61)

Ibn Abbas says the same thing (recorded in Adab Al Mufrad), so do Jabir Ibn Abdillah and Ibn Umar. As well as Ibn Abbas’ father (radhiAllahu ‘anhum)

The scholars of tafsir regarding the voice (of Iblis):

Mujahid: It is singing, flutes, distraction, falsehood (Tafsir Tabari 15/81)

Hasan Al-Basri: It’s the duff and the flute (Tafsir Samani 3/258)

Ibn Abbas said: It is singing. Upon hearing the Quran, they (the mushrikeen of makkah) used to sing and play. (Tafsir Tabari 13/82)

Mujahid also says the same thing in Talbis Iblis by Ibn Jawzi (p. 231)

[THREAD] Why the Qadiyani (or Ahmadiya’a) community aren’t Muslims and Mirza Ghulam is an impostor ?

Mirza Ghulam was born in 1835 in India, he’s the founder of the movement claiming Islam. This movement is called "Ahmadiyya" or "Qadianiyya".

Coming from a Sunni and Sufi family, he would have been immersed very early in learning Islam and would have learned Arabic around the age of 10.

We will now see more about him and his sect :

In 1889, Mîrzâ Ghulam said that he had received a "revelation" from Allah designating him as the Mahdi and mujaddid.

First problem, the Mahdi must descend from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and bear his name. What you need to know is that "Ahmad" is just a late addition to give credibility to his pseudo-prophecy.

ONE night, a man was angry that his wife had raised her voice when speaking with him. How could she disrespect him? How could she be-little him?

This man,convinced that his wife had crossed the line,decided to go and complain about her to a man who had much knowledge about (1)

Islam & to see what he would have to say about this woman.He went to Umar ibn Al-Khattab. 
As the man was just about to knock on Umar’s door,he stopped in his tracks.He heard a voice coming from inside,a woman’s voice. It was Umar’s wife,she was speaking loudly and her voice(2)

overrode her husband’s.
That was Umar ibn Al-Khattab in there, the fierce ruler of the Muslim Empire that had stretched East and West, and his wife was freely and confidently voicing her opinion and discussing important matters with him.
The man, feeling ashamed of his own
(3)

intolerance towards his wife, hurriedly retraced his steps and decided to leave.The man stumbled and his footsteps were heard by Umar ibn Al-Khattab who opened the door and asked his nighttime visitor,“Have you come to visit me?”
The man sheepishly replied, “I came to complain(4)

to you that my wife had raised her voice at me,but I found that you too have what I have.”What was Umar ibn Al-Khattab’s response?
He said, “She washes my clothes, sweeps the floors,cares for my children, and cleans my house, when Allah has not commanded her to do so, but she(5)
