💠Al-Fudayl b. ‘Ayyād [187H] – Allāh have mercy on him – said:
🔰“Allāh ‘azza wa jalla accepts only those deeds which are both correct and sincere (pure). If the deed is done correctly but not sincerely, it will not be accepted. And if it is sincere but not correct, it will not be accepted.”
⁉️He was asked: “Abū ‘Alī! What is the sincere and correct deed?”
💥He replied: “The sincere deed is one that is done only for Allāh ‘azza wa jall. And the correct deed is one done according to the Sunnah.”

We have been warned of the newly invented matters and we have been informed that they are from among the things that lead astray. RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) reported to have said:
💠 "Stick to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly-guided Khalifahs (who will come) after me. Bite onto it (the Sunnah) with your molar teeth and beware of newly invented matters. For indeed, every newly invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is a misguidance."

[Darimi; Tabarani, al-Kabir; Bayhaqi; Ibn Wadaah, al-Bid'a wan-Nahi anhaa; Abu Khaithama, al-Ilm]
8️⃣ - Umar Ibn Abdu'l-Aziz said something with the meaning: "Stop where the people have stopped! For, indeed, they stopped upon receiving knowledge. The clear evidences would suffice them and they were the strongest at manifesting it. If there were any merit in something, they would be most deserving of (having done) it.
🍃So if you say: It was introduced after them, then no one introduces into it except for he who opposed their guidance and desired other than their example. They have described from it what was enough and they have spoken concerning it what sufficed. What is above them is excessiveness. And what is below them is inadequacy.
💢 Some people have fallen short of them and so they have drawn away. And others have transgressed them and so they became extreme. But indeed, they were between these two, upon a straight guidance."

❐ The man said: Of course it was sufficient for them. He said: So something which was sufficient for RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) and his Khalifahs is not sufficient for you!?!

💠21- From the attributes of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) is that He speaks with a speech that is pre-existent[⭕️11]. He causes whomsoever He wills to hear it, Musa (alayhi wa sallam) heard it from Him without there being any intermediary. Jibril (alayhi wa sallam) heard it, as well as whomsoever He (azza wajal) permits, from His angels and messengers.
❐ 22- He (jalla jalaluhu) will speak to the believers in the Hereafter and they will speak to Him[⭕️12]. And He (azza wajal) will grant them permission and they will visit Him[⭕️13]. Allah (azza wajal) says:
❐ "And to Musa, Allah spoke directly." [an-Nisa 4/164]
❐ And Allah (azza wajal) says: "He (Allah) said: O Musa, I have chosen you above men by My Messages, and by My speaking (to you)." [al-A'raf 7/144]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "Those messengers! We preferred some of them to others; to some of them Allah spoke (directly)." [al-Baqarah 2/253]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "It is not given to any human being that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation, or from behind a veil." [ash-Shura 42/51]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "And when he came to it (the fire), he was called by name: O Musa! Verily, I am your Lord!" [Ta-Ha 20/11-12]
❐ And Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) says: "Verily, I am Allah! None has the right to be worshipped but I, so worship Me, and establish the prayer for My Remembrance."

❖❖ The Speech of Allah (azza wajal) ❖❖
💠21- From the attributes of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) is that He speaks with a speech that is pre-existent[⭕️11]. He causes whomsoever He wills to hear it, Musa (alayhi wa sallam) heard it from Him without there being any intermediary. Jibril (alayhi wa sallam) heard it, as well as whomsoever He (azza wajal) permits, from His angels and messengers.
❐ 22- He (jalla jalaluhu) will speak to the believers in the Hereafter and they will speak to Him[⭕️12]. And He (azza wajal) will grant them permission and they will visit Him[⭕️13]. Allah (azza wajal) says:
❐ "And to Musa, Allah spoke directly." [an-Nisa 4/164]
❐ And Allah (azza wajal) says: "He (Allah) said: O Musa, I have chosen you above men by My Messages, and by My speaking (to you)." [al-A'raf 7/144]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "Those messengers! We preferred some of them to others; to some of them Allah spoke (directly)." [al-Baqarah 2/253]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "It is not given to any human being that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation, or from behind a veil." [ash-Shura 42/51]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says: "And when he came to it (the fire), he was called by name: O Musa! Verily, I am your Lord!" [Ta-Ha 20/11-12]
❐ And Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) says: "Verily, I am Allah! None has the right to be worshipped but I, so worship Me, and establish the prayer for My Remembrance."

❐ By : Ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi (D 620 H)
❐ Part - 6
💠The Qur'an is the Speech of Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) 💠
❐ 26- From the speech of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala), is the Glorious Qur'an. It is the clear Book of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) and His firm rope. It is His straight path and the revelation of the Lord of the universe. The most honorable spirit (i.e., Jibril) descended with it to the heart of the best of Messengers, in a clear Arabic language. It was revealed and not created[16] . From Him it began and to Him it will return[17].
❐ 27- It consists of decisive chapters, clear ayahs, letters and words. Whosoever recites it and does so properly (with Iraab), he will have ten good deeds for every letter he recites, the first and last of them."[⭕️18]
💢It (also) consists of sections and parts. It is that which is recited by the tongues, safeguarded by the breasts, listened to by the ears, and recorded in scriptures. In it are verses that are clear and unclear, abrogated and abrogating, specific and general, as well as obligating and prohibiting.
❐ "Falsehood can not approach it from before it or behind it; (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of all praise (Allah)." [Fussilat 41/42];
❐ "Say: If mankind and jinn were to gather together to produce the likes of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they helped one another." [al-Isra 17/88]
❐ 28- It is the Arabic Book, of which the disbelievers said concerning it:
❐ "We will never believe in this Qur'an." [as-Saba 34/31] ; •
❐ And some of them said: This is nothing but the word of a human being." [al-Muddaththir 74/25] ;
❐ So Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) said: "I will cast him into the Hellfire." [al-Muddaththir 74/26]
🍃Some of them said that it was poetry, so Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) said:
❐ "And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry nor is it suitable for him. This is only a reminder and a plain Qur'an." [Ya-Sin 36/69]
🔰Thus, when Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) denies that it is poetry and He confirms that it is a Qur'an, there should not remain any doubt for the one possessing intellect, that the Qur'an is that Arabic Book which is composed of words, letters and verses. This is because if it were not so, then they (disbelievers) would not have claimed that it was poetry.
❐ 29- Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "And if you (disbelievers) are in doubt concerning what We have sent down (i.e. Qur'an) to Our slave (Muhammad), then produce a chapter of the like thereof and call your witnesses besides Allah." [al-Baqarah 2/23]
💢It is not likely for Him to challenge them with producing something that is neither known nor able to be understood.
❐ 30- Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) says: "And when Our clear verses are recited unto them, those who hope not for their meeting with Us, say: Bring us a Qur'an other than this, or change it. Say (O Muhammad): It is not for me to change it on my own accord; I only follow that which is revealed unto me."
[Yunus 10/55]
This confirms that the Qur'an is (made of) ayahs, which are recited upon them.
❐ 31- Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) says: "Nay, but they, the clear ayat (i.e., the description and the qualities of the Prophet Muhammad written in the Tawrah and the Injil) are preserved in the breasts of those who have been given knowledge (among the people of the Scriptures)." [al-Ankabut 29/49]
❐ And He (azza wajal) says, after having sworn upon that: "That (this) is indeed an honorable recitation (the Noble Qur'an). In a Book well guarded (al-Lawh-ul-Mahfudh). Which (that Book with Allah) none can touch but the purified (i.e., the angels)." [al-Waqi'ah 56/77-79]
❐ 32- And Allah (azza wajal) says: "Kaf-Ha-Ya-Ayn-Sad." [Maryam 19/1] ;
❐ "Ha-Mim. Ayn-Sin-Qaf." [ash-Shura 42/1]
⭕️He commences twenty-nine chapters with divided Idler.

❐ “He cannot be questioned as to what He does, while they will be questioned."[al-Anbiya 21/23]
❐ Allah (azza wajal) says: "Verily, We have created all things with Qadr (Divine preordainment)." [al-Qamar 54/49]
❐ And He (subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "He has created everything, and has measured it exactly according to its due measurements." [al-Furqan 25/2]
❐ And He says: "No calamity befalls on the earth or in yourselves, except that it is in a Book (al-Lawh al-Mahfudh) before We bring it into existence." [al-Hadid 57/22]
❐ And He (subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "And whomsoever Allah wills to guide, he opens his breast to Islam; and whomsoever He wills to send astray, He makes his breast closed and constricted." [al-Anam 6/125]
❐ 44- Ibn Umar (Rady'Allahu Anhu) reported that Jibril (alayhi wa sallam) asked RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) what iman was, so he (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) responded:
❐ "To believe in Allah, His angels, His books, the Last Day and al-Qadr, the good of it and the bad of it. Then Jibril (as) told him: You have spoken truthfully." [Muslim]
❐ 45- And RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) reported to have said: "I believe in al-Qadr, the good of it and the bad of it, the sweet of it and the bitter of it." [Hakim, Ma'arifatu Ulumi'l-Hadith, # 31]
❐ 46- One of the supplications that RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) taught Hasan Ibn Ali (Rady'Allahu Anhu) and which he (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam), himself, used to supplicate with during the Qunut of Witr, was:
❐ "And save me from the evil You have ordained." [Abu Dawud; Tirmidhi; Nasai; Ibn Maajah; Ahmad]
❐ 47- We do not use al-Qada and al-Qadr of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) as an excuse for us to abandon following His commandments and avoiding His prohibitions[19].
🍃Rather, we are obligated to believe in and know that with Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) is the proof by His revealing of the Books and His sending of the Messengers.
❐ Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "In order that mankind shall have no excuse against Allah after the (coming of) Messengers." [an-Nisa 4/165]
❐ 48- We know that Allah (azza wajal - the Mighty the Sublime) did not command or forbid except that which is able to be acted upon or abandoned. He did not force anyone to commit acts of disobedience nor did He compel anyone to abandon obeying Him.
❐ Allah (jaalla jalaluhu - His glory be glorified) says: "Allah has not given any soul a responsibility, except that He has given it the ability (to carry out that responsibility)." [al-Baqarah 2/286]
❐ And Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "So fear Allah as much as you are able." [at-Taghabun 65/16]
❐ And Allah says: "This Day every person shall be recompensed for what he earned. There will be no injustice (upon anybody in their judgement) on that Day." [Ghafir 40/17]
❐ 49- This indicates that every servant possesses actions and earnings. He will be recompensed for his good deeds with reward and for his bad deeds with punishment. This will occur by the execution (al-Qada) and the preordainment (al-Qadr) of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala).
❖FOOTNOTE ❖
~~~~~~~
Allah (azza wajal) attributes each deed to the servant performing it and He places it as something that that individual has earned for himself. Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says:
❐ "This Day, every person shall be recompensed for what he earned." [Ghafir 40/17]
💢If one did not have a choice in doing a deed, then Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) would not have attributed the deed to him. Thus, Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) frees Himself from the deed and informs us that it is something that one earns for himself.
🔰So how can one blame Allah's predestination (al-Qadr) for his own actions?

💠Iman is Speech and Action 💠
❐ 50- Iman (Faith) is a statement of the tongue, an action of the limbs and a belief of the heart. It increases with obedience and decreases with disobedience.
❐ 51- Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "And they were commanded not, but that they should worship Allah, making the religion sincere to Him, worshiping none but Him alone, and perform prayer, and give Zakaah, and that is the right religion." [al-Bayyinah 98/5]
💥Thus He has placed the worship of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) , the sincerity of the heart, the establishment of prayer and the giving of Zakaah, all as being from the religion (i.e., iman).
❐ 52- And RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said: "Iman consists of more than sixty branches. The highest of them is to testify that La-ilaha illallah (None has the right to be worshipped except Allah). And the lowest of them is removing a harmful object the road." [Bukhari; Muslim]
❐ 53- Thus he (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) placed speech and action as part of Iman[⭕️20].
❐Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "As for those who believe, it has increased their iman." [at-Tawbah 9/124]
❐ And He (subhanahu wa ta'ala) says: "That they may grow more in Faith, along with their (present) iman."[al-Fath 48/4]
❐ 54- RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said: "Whosoever says: La-ilaha illallah' and he has in his heart imann the weight of a wheat grain, or a mustard's seed or an atom, will be extracted from the Hellfire." [Bukhari; Muslim]
🔰Thus he (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) has placed iman in different levels. (i.e., iman increases and decreases and is of various levels according to one's belief and actions.)
❖FOOTNOTE ❖

💠💠Iman in Everything that RasulAllah💠💠
(Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam)
💠has Informed of💠
❐ 55- We are obligated to have faith in everything that RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) informed of, in what was authentically attributed to him through reports, whether we witnessed it or it was hidden from us. We know that it is a reality and the truth.
💢This is the same in regards to whether we comprehend it or we do not understand it. We do not go above the reality (i.e., literalness) of its meaning, such as the hadith concerning the Isra and the Mi'raaj[⭕️21].
🔰It occurred (while RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam was) in a state of wakefulness, and not in a dream, for indeed the Quraysh denied it and considered it something incredible. And they did not use to deny dreams.
❐ 56- Another example of that, is when the angel of death approached Musa (alayhi wa sallam) in order to take his soul. He (Musa) struck him and gouged his eye, so he returned to his Lord who gave him his eye back [⭕️22].
❐ 57- Another example of that: are the signs of the Hour, such as the emergence of the Dajjal[⭕️23], the descent of Isa Ibn Maryam[⭕️24] and his killing him (Dajjal)[⭕️25], the emergence of Ya'juj and Ma'juj[⭕️26], the emergence of the beast[⭕️27], the rising of the sun from the west[⭕️28]and all that is related to that, from what has been authentically reported.
❐ 58- The punishment and pleasure of the grave are true. RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) would seek refuge from it (i.e., the punishment) and he commanded that it be done in every prayer[⭕️29].
❐ 59- The trials of the grave are true. The questioning of Munkar and Nakir is true[⭕️30]. The resurrection after death is true and that will occur when (the Angel) Israfil blows upon the trumpet.
❐ "And behold from the graves they will come out quickly to their Lord." [Ya-Sin 36/51]
60- Mankind will be gathered on the Day of Judgement, barefoot, naked and uncircumcised[⭕️31]. They will stop at the final place of standing, until our Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) intercedes for them and Allah (jalla jalaluhu - His glory be glorified) reckons with them. Then the Balances will be set up and the records of deeds will be dispersed onto the right hands and the left hands:
❐ "Then as for him who will be given his record in his right hand, he surely, will receive an easy reckoning. And will return to his family in joy! But whosoever is given his record behind his back (or on his left hand), he will invoke (for his) destruction. And he shall enter a blazing Fire and made to taste its burning." [al-Inshiqaq 84/7-12]
❐ 61- Mizaan (the Balance) has two scales and a tongue, by which it will measure the deeds:
❐ "Then those whose Balances (of good deeds) are heavy, they are the successful. And those whose Balances (of good deeds) are light, they are those who lose their own selves, in Hell will they abide." [al-Muminun 23/102-103]
❐ 62- Our Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) will have al-Hawd (the Fountain) on the Day of Judgement[⭕️32]. Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Its drinking vessels are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Whosoever drinks a serving from it, then he will never thirst again after that.
❐ 63- Siraat (the Bridge) is true. The righteous ones will cross it and the evil ones will fall from it[⭕️33].
❐ 64- Our Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) will intercede for the members of his ummah who have entered the Hellfire due to their major sins. Thus they will be extracted from it, due to his interceding, (but only) after having been set ablaze and burned to ashes and charcoal. Then they will enter Paradise due to His interceding[⭕️34].
❐ 65- There will also be interceding done by the rest of the prophets, believers and angels[⭕️35].

💠He (alayhi wa sallam) said: Verily thy ummah shall not be able to bear this burden; return to thy Lord and ask Him to make things lighter. I then kept going back and forth between my Lord Blessed and Exalted and Musa, till He (azza wajal) said: There are five prayers every day and night. O Muhammad, each being credited as ten, so that makes fifty prayers.
💥He who intends to do a good deed and does not do it will have a good deed recorded for him; and if he does it, it will be recorded for him as ten; whereas he who intends to do an evil deed and does not do, it will not be recorded for him; and if he does it, only one evil deed will be recorded. I then came down and when I came to Musa and informed him.
💢He (alayhi wa sallam) said: Go back to thy Lord and ask Him to make things lighter. Upon this RasulAllah (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) remarked: I returned to my Lord until I felt ashamed before Him.” [Bukhari; Muslim]
❐ [⭕️FN] 22- The wording that occurs in the hadith, is as follows: "The Angel of Death was sent (in the form of a man) to Musa (in order to take his soul). When he approached him, Musa (alayhi wa sallam) struck him and gouged his eye.
💥The angel then returned to Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) and said: You have sent me to a servant who does not wish to die. Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) then restored his eye and said: Go back and tell him to place his hand on the back of an ox. He shall have a year for every hair that his hand covers.
💠So Musa (alayhi wa sallam) said (after hearing this from the angel and doing it): O my Lord! Then what? He (azza wajal) said: Then death! He (Musa) said: Then (let it be) now. So he (alayhi wa sallam) asked Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) to place him deep inside the holy earth, at the length of the toss of a rock.
💠 (The gate) was opened for us and then I was with Harun (alayhi wa sallam). He welcomed me prayed for my well-being. Then I was taken to the sixth heaven. Jibril (alayhi wa sallam) asked for the door to be opened. It was said: Who is he? He replied: Jibril. It was said: Who is with thee? He replied: Muhammad.
🔰It was said: Has he been sent for? He replied: He has indeed been sent for. (The gate) was opened for us and there I was with Musa (alayhi wa sallam). He welcomed me and prayed for my well-being. Then I was taken up to the seventh heaven. Jibril (alayhi wa sallam) asked the (gate) to be opened. It was said: Who is he? He said: Jibril. It was said. Who is with thee? He replied: Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) It was said:
🍃Has he been sent for? He replied: He has indeed been sent for. (The gate) was opened for us and there I found Ibrahim (alayhi wa sallam) reclining against the Baitu'l-Ma'mur and there enter into it seventy thousand angels every day, never to visit (this place) again.
⭕️Then I was taken to Sidratu'l-Muntaha whose leaves were like elephant ears and its fruit like big earthenware vessels. And when it was covered by the Command of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) , it underwent such a change that none amongst the creation has the power to praise its beauty.
🔰Then Allah (azza wajal) revealed to me a revelation and He made obligatory for me fifty prayers every day and night. Then I went down to Musa (alayhi wa sallam) and he said: What has your Lord enjoined upon your ummah? I said: Fifty prayers. He (alayhi wa sallam) said: Return to thy Lord and beg for reduction (in the number of prayers), for your community shall not be able to bear this burden.
💢As I have put to test the children of Isra'il and tried them (and found them too weak to bear such a heavy burden). He (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said: I went back to my Lord and said: My Lord, make things lighter for my ummah. (The Lord) reduced five prayers for me. I went down to Musa and said. (The Lord) reduced five (prayers) for me.
