In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Milestones on the path to stability
By His Eminence Sheikh Dr. Fayez bin Hussein Al-Salah
Introduction
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds
I bear witness that there is no god but God, the clear truth
I bear witness that Muhammad is His true and trustworthy servant and Messenger
May God bless him and his family and companions
And whoever follows them in goodness until the Day of Judgment
As for after
Steadfastness in religion is the requirement of every sincere Muslim
And the ultimate goal of every worshiper is success
And the religion of the prophets, messengers, saints, and righteous people
There is a dire need for it at all times
Especially in a time when there are a lot of people falling off the road
From the general public and their private ones
Since that was the case
This was the brief message
A reminder for me and my Muslim brothers on the road
And I named it
Milestones on the path to stability
And I made it into two requirements
The first is the reality of consistency and its importance
The second requirement is regarding means of stability
In twenty full means
I ask God to make us steadfast in His religion until we meet Him
Our last supplication is: Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds
The first requirement
The truth and importance of consistency
Constancy is permanence and continuity
The firmness and durability of a thing is connected to what it is attached to or is based on
The truth about steadfastness is being straight on the path
Al-Saadi said in Tayseer Al-Latif Al-Mannan
Integrity is the necessity of the straight path
That the servant is steadfast in his faith in God
And performing his duties and leaving behind his forbidden things
Keep doing that
Repentant of what he violated her rights
That is why he said: So be steadfast towards Him and seek His forgiveness
Any of your mistakes in integrity
The Muslim must pay
If he is not able to do so, then approach
If it is removed from the approach
All that remains is negligence and loss
And in the two Sahihs on the authority of Aisha, may God be pleased with her
On the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said
They paid, they approached, and they gave good news
No one whose deeds will enter Paradise will enter Paradise
They said, “Not even you, O Messenger of God.”
He said neither do I
Unless God showers me with His mercy
And know that the most beloved work to God is to do it consistently, even if it is small
God Almighty has commanded His faithful servants
By steadfastness in this religion until death
God Almighty said
And worship your Lord until certainty comes to you
And he said
O you who have believed, fear God as He should be feared
Fear God as you should fear Him
And do not die unless you are Muslims
And the Almighty said
So be steadfast as you have been commanded and whoever repents with you, and do not go astray
He sees what you do
And he said
Therefore, pray
And do as you were commanded
Do not follow their desires
And say, “I believe in what God has revealed of the Book.”
And I was commanded to be fair among you
God is our Lord and your Lord
We have our deeds and you have your deeds
There is no argument between us and you
God brings us together and to Him is our destiny
And whoever strives himself to be straight on the path
God Almighty will not waste it
As God said
Those who said, “Our Lord is God,” and then remained steadfast
They have no fear, nor do they grieve
Those are the companions of Paradise
They will abide therein as a reward for what they did
And he said
Those who said, “Our Lord is God,” and then remained steadfast
Angels descend upon them
Do not be afraid, do not be sad, and give good news
In the paradise that you were promised
We are your guardians in this life and in the afterlife
You have in it whatever your souls desire
And you have in it whatever you call upon
They came down from the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful
Constancy is the commandment of the prophets and messengers to their children and followers
As in the Almighty’s saying
And whoever desires to abandon the religion of Abraham
Except he who fools himself
We have chosen him in this world
In the afterlife, he will be among the righteous
When his Lord said to him, “Submit.”
He said: I have submitted to the Lord of the Worlds
Abraham recommended it to his sons and Jacob
My son, God has chosen the religion for you
Do not die unless you are Muslims
If steadfastness in Islam is the commandment of the prophets and messengers
It is in a time of difference and separation
Steadfastness in Islam and the Sunnah is the goal of all those who follow the true approach
Al-Hasan Al-Basri said
Your Sunnah and God, besides whom there is no god, are between them
Between the precious and the dry
So be patient, may God have mercy on you
The Sunnis were the fewest people in the past
They are the fewest people remaining
Those who did not go with the people of luxury in their luxury
Nor with the people of innovation in their innovations
And they were patient in their Sunnah until they met their Lord
So will you, God willing, so be it
If the people of disbelief are patient with their disbelief
They communicate it among themselves
As God said about them
And the chiefs of them set out, “Go and be patient before your gods.”
This is something that is intended
He said that he almost led us astray from our gods
If we had not been patient with it
It is better for the people of truth to be patient and be patient with him
As God Almighty said
O you who believe!
Be patient, be patient, and be patient
And fear God that you may succeed
He also said
By the time, man is in loss
Except those who believe and do righteous deeds
And exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to patience
And he said
So be patient, for God’s promise is true
And ask forgiveness for your sin
And praise your Lord
In the evening and early
Sheikh Al-Islam said about integrity
So he ordered him to be patient
And tell him that God's promise is true
He ordered him to ask forgiveness for his sin
No trial will occur except those who abandon what God has commanded
For God Almighty commanded truth and commanded patience
Sedition is either the result of abandoning the truth
Or one who abandons patience
Milestones on the path to stability
Fallen people on the road
God created creation for testing and testing
God Almighty said
Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He has power over all things
Who created death and life to test you as to which of you is best in deed
He is the Mighty, the Forgiving
Then he sent messengers to them
Some of them believed and some of them disbelieved
God refuses to test those who proclaim their faith
And God Almighty said
People think that they will be left without saying, “We believe,” and they will not be tried
And those before them were tempted
So let God know those who are truthful and let Him know those who are liars
So distinguish the bad from the good
As God Almighty said
God would not leave the believers in the state you are in until He distinguishes the bad from the good
The steadfast were steadfast, thanks to God’s mercy and mercy, and then with their solid foundation
And the fallen fell because God abandoned them
They were on the brink of Ravnahar, and he collapsed on them
God Almighty said
If they had done what they preach, it would have been better for them and more steadfast
And if We had given them from Us a great reward
And We will guide them to a straight path
God has set an example for those who stand firm and those who fall on the path
And he said
Have you not seen how God gives an example of a good word like a good tree with a firm root and its branches in the sky?
It bears fruit at all times, with the permission of its Lord
God sets examples for people so that they may remember
An evil word is like a malicious tree uprooted from the surface of the earth that has no stability
God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife
And God misleads the wrongdoers
And God does whatever He wants
So God Almighty began with the true rooting and description
Then it was described as false rooting
Then with the fruit of both roots of stability and its absence
The good word is the word of monotheism, there is no god but God
Every call that is not built on this great foundation is invalid and failed
Because monotheism is the first and last duty
This word has firm roots in the soil of piety
Its branch was high in the sky and did not shake due to temptation
It is not driven by whims and interests, and it bears its fruits at all times
In war and peace, there is a stage of weakness and strength
Unlike that malicious tree that has no roots or roots
As soon as the first turmoil came, it was uprooted from the earth
You cannot be steadfast and steadfast
Do not be surprised, my Muslim brother, by the words and actions of some thinkers, leaders, and governments
Every vessel exudes what is in it
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Actions are like a vessel
If the bottom is good, the top is good
If the bottom is spoiled, the top is spoiled
Narrated by Ahmed and authenticated by our Sheikh Al-Albani in Al-Sahih
And the Almighty said
A good country grows plants with the permission of its Lord
And he who is malicious does not come out except in distress
Thus We convey the signs to a people who are grateful
Since the true influence in the souls of the Companions was strong
There was neither an innovator nor a misguided person among them
Religion provided people with fresh fruit
And it yielded good, ripe fruits
From which people of all classes ate across time and place
Sheikh al-Islam said in Minhaj al-Sunnah al-Nabawiyyah
As for the caliphs and companions
Everything is good for Muslims until the Day of Resurrection
From faith, Islam, the Qur’an, science, knowledge and worship
Entering Paradise and being saved from Hell
Their victory over the infidels and the supremacy of the word of God
It is due to the blessing of what the Companions did
Those who have attained religion and strive in the path of God
Every believer believes in God
The Companions, may God be pleased with them, have a favor upon him until the Day of Resurrection
Consider these words with me with careful understanding and deep thought
What the scholar Ibn Al-Qayyim said in his book Al-Mati' Al-Fawa'id
Whoever wants his building to be tall must strengthen its foundation and its principles
And take great care of him
The structure is only as strong as its foundation
Deeds and degrees are edifying and their foundation is faith
And when the foundation is solid, the structure will be carried and lifted up by it
If any of the structure is destroyed, it is easy to repair it
If the foundation is not solid, the structure will not rise or be stable
If anything from the foundation collapses, the structure collapses, or almost collapses
The knowledgeable person's mission is to correct and establish the foundation
The ignorant person raises a building based on no basis
Soon his building will collapse
God Almighty said
Is he who founded his building on fear of God and His pleasure better than he who founded his building on the brink of a hot cliff and it collapses therein?
In the fire of hell, and God will not guide the wrongdoing people.
Charcoal your structure on the strength of the foundation of faith
If something is scattered from the tops and roof of the building
Darkness was easier for you than ruining the foundation
This is based on two things
The first is correct knowledge of God, His command, His names, and His attributes
The second is an abstraction of submission to Him and His Messenger to the exclusion of anything else
This is the most solid foundation upon which the servant can build his structure
According to him, he can build whatever he wants
His words ended, may God have mercy on him
So look, may God have mercy on me and you
With your insight and insight into the reality of Muslims today
You find collapses in Islamic work
Then you realize a bitter truth
It is that this work was not based on fear of God and approval of the texts of revelation
The preferred jurisprudence of the imams of the centuries in religion
Milestones on the path to stability
Means of stability
Constancy has its means that God has prescribed in His Book
And on the tongue of His Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace
It was represented in the stories of the proven prophets and messengers
And the righteous saints of God from the first and the last
This is explained and detailed in the following
First, God is the stabilizer
The millstone pole in the stabilization process
To know with certainty that God is the One who confirms
And the hearts of the servants are between two of the Most Merciful’s fingers
He turns it around as he wants
God Almighty confirms His righteous friends in this life and the hereafter
Installation is its description and action
It is not one of his names
No one can do without the affirmation of God Almighty for a single moment
Even the prophets and messengers
God Almighty said
And if they were about to tempt you away from what We revealed to you, you would invent against us something else
Then they would have taken you as a friend
Had We not made you firm, you would have been little dependent on them
Therefore, we will make you taste the weakness of life and the weakness of death
Then you will not find a helper against us
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Rawdat al-Muhibbin
The servant should not rely on himself, his patience, his condition, or his chastity
And abandoning that, God's infallibility has abandoned him
He was surrounded by disappointment
God Almighty said: “The most honorable of creation to Him and the most beloved to Him.”
Had we not made you firm, you would have been dependent on them for a little while
This was one of his supplications
O converter of hearts
Make my heart firm on your religion
It was more to his right
No, he turns hearts
How, when it was revealed to him
And know that God comes between a person and his heart
And the Almighty said
God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife
And God misleads the wrongdoers
And God does whatever He wants
And in the two Sahihs, the wording is by Muslim
On the authority of Al-Baraa bin Azib
On the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said
God confirms those who believe with the firm word
He said
I descended into the torment of the grave
And he is told
From your Lord
And he says
My Lord God
And the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
That is what God Almighty says
God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife
God confirms Ibn Al-Qayyim in informing the signatories
And under his saying
God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife
Great treasure
Whoever trusts his belief
And extract it well, acquire it, and spend from it
He lost sheep
Whoever deprives him is deprived
This is because the servant cannot do without God’s affirmation of him even for the blink of an eye
If it is not proven
Otherwise, the sky and earth of his faith will disappear from their place
God Almighty said: “The most honorable of His creation is His servant and Messenger.”
Had we not made you firm, you would have been dependent on them for a little while
And God Almighty said to the most honorable of His creation
When your Lord revealed to the angels, “I am with you, so strengthen those who believe.”
And God Almighty said to His Messenger
And we will tell you from the noblest messengers what we will strengthen your heart with
All creation is divided into two parts
Successful installation
He was disappointed to leave the installation
The subject of confirmation is its origin and its like from the fixed saying
And he did what the servant commanded
Through them, God establishes His servant
And everyone who was proven in word and did better
It was the greatest fixation
God Almighty said
If they had done what they preach, it would have been better for them and more steadfast
So people are more steadfast in their hearts and more steadfast in their words
The fixed statement is the true and honest statement
It is the opposite of false statement and lying
There are two types of sayings
Fixed his truth
It is false and has no truth
The statement is proven by the word monotheism and its implications
It is the greatest thing by which God strengthens His servants in this world and the hereafter
This is why you see the truthful person as the most steadfast and bravest of people in heart
A liar is one of the most disgraceful, cowardly, most colorful, and least steadfast people
The people of physiognomy know the sincerity of the truthful person
From the steadfastness of his heart, his determination, his courage, and his fear
They know that the liar is lying to the contrary
This is only hidden from the weak-sighted
Since God is the One who establishes stability, then stability is from Him and to Him
Therefore, the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, used to pray frequently for steadfastness
On the authority of Shahr Ibn Hawsh bin he said:
I said to Umm Salamah, may God be pleased with her
O Mother of the Believers
What was the most frequent supplication of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace?
If you have it
She said
It was more his supplication
O converter of hearts
Make my heart firm on your religion
She said
So I told him
O Messenger of God
How many times do you pray for this?
He said
Oh Umm Salamah
He's not human
Unless his heart is between two of God’s fingers
Whoever wants to stay
Whoever wants to visit
And in Sahih Muslim
On the authority of Abdullah bin Omar bin Al-Aas, may God be pleased with them both, he said
I heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, say
The hearts of all the children of Adam are between two of the Most Merciful’s fingers
As one heart
He spends it wherever he wants
Then the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Oh God, the bank of hearts
Devote our hearts to your obedience
On the authority of Anas he said:
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, used to say a lot
O converter of hearts
Make my heart firm on your religion
He said
So we said, O Messenger of God
We believed in you and what you brought
Do you fear for us?
He said
And he said yes
Hearts are between two of God Almighty's fingers. He turns them around
Ibn al-Qayyim said in the path of migration and the chapter on happiness
If the servant knows that God Almighty is the One who turns hearts
And it comes between a person and his heart
And He, Glory be to Him, is in a matter every day
He does what he wants and rules what he wants
And He guides whom He wills and misleads whom He wills
He raises whomever He wants and lowers whomever He wants
He does not believe that God will change his heart
And it comes between him and him
And he deviates from it after his residence
God praised His faithful servants by saying:
Our Lord, do not let our hearts deviate after You have guided us
Were it not for the fear of displacement
When they asked him not to deviate their hearts
He said in the key to the house of happiness
This is why in the supplication narrated by Imam Ahmad and Al-Nasa’i
On the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
Oh God, I ask you to be steadfast in the matter
And the determination to reach maturity
These two words are the intercourse of the farmer
And the servant did not come except from what you lost
Or you lose one of them
No one came except out of haste and recklessness
And the Bedouins provoked him
Or out of negligence and complacency
The opportunity is lost after it is gone
If stability comes first and determination comes second
Every farmer succeeded
God is the Grantor of success
And pray for steadfastness
He was righteous before
Especially in times of adversity
God Almighty said, describing the first Mujahideen
When they came out to Goliath and his soldiers
They said, “Our Lord, bestow upon us patience.”
And steady our feet
And grant us victory over the disbelieving people
And he said
From a prophet with whom many rabbis fought
They were not weakened by what befell them in the cause of God
They were not weak and did not submit
And God loves those who are patient
What they said was nothing but what they said
Our Lord, forgive us our sins
And we are pleased with our affairs
And steady our feet
And grant us victory over the disbelieving people
So God gave them the reward of this world
And good reward in the afterlife
And God loves the doers of good
He said in the supplication of the believers
Our Lord, do not let our hearts deviate from delusion
When You have guided us, grant us mercy from You
You are the Wahhab
And in the two Sahihs
On the authority of Al-Baraa, may God be pleased with him, he said:
I saw the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
The day of parties moves the dirt
The dirt covered the white of his stomach
And he says
If you were not our guide
Do not believe us or pray
So they sent down Sakina upon us
And keep your feet steady except for a while
The former have transgressed against us
If they want to seduce our father
Milestones on the path to stability
Trust in God
It is one of the greatest means of stability
Trust in God in all matters
Especially in times of adversity
God described the condition of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
And those with him, he said
Who people told them
People have gathered for you
So fear them
People have gathered for you
So fear them, and He will increase them
In faith
They said it is enough for us
God is the best disposer of affairs
And in Sahih Al-Bukhari
On the authority of Ibn Abbas, may God be pleased with them both, he said
God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs
Abraham, peace be upon him, said it
When I was thrown into the fire
Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, said it
When they said that people
They have gathered against you, so fear them
He increased their faith
They said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.”
And trust
And trust him in achieving what is desired
Taking legitimate reasons
Because of its importance, it was made a condition of faith
As God Almighty said
And put your trust in God, if you will
Believers
He said, “Let him trust in God.”
Believers
And make his reward sufficient
Whoever relies on God, He is sufficient for him
Ibn al-Qayyim said
On the paths of the walkers
Trust is half the religion
The second half is representation
Religion is seeking help and worship
Trust is seeking help
Repentance is worship
His position is the widest and most comprehensive of all the stations
Sting related to trust
And the many needs of the worlds
The generality of trust and its occurrence
Of believers and unbelievers
And the righteous and the ungodly
And birds, and beasts, and animals
The people of the heavens and the earth are assigned
And others in a position of trust
If there is a discrepancy related to their trust
And his advice is to trust in him in faith
And support his religion
And uphold his word and wage jihad against his enemies
And in his favor and carrying out his orders
And besides these, there is no one to rely on
In his integrity in himself
And keep his condition with God
Empty for people
And besides these, there is no one to rely on
Of livelihood or well-being
Or victory over an enemy
Or a wife, or a child, and so on
And besides these, there is no one to rely on
In the occurrence of sin and immorality
Those who make these demands do not get them
Mostly, except with their help from God
And put their trust in Him
In fact, their trust may be stronger
That's why they throw themselves
In the damaged and ruined
Dependent on God to deliver them
And he forgives them for their demands
It is better to trust
Trust in duty
I mean the duty of truth
It is the duty of creation and the duty of the soul
The broadest and most useful
Or in pushing religious corruption
It is the trust of the prophets
In establishing the religion of God
And repel the corruption of corruptors on earth
This is the trust of their heirs
Then people still trust
According to their interests and goals
Whoever trusts in God
In obtaining the king
His trust in God to achieve something that he achieved
If he is loved and pleasing to him
He had a good outcome
Even if he is angry and hated
What happened to him was due to his trust
Harmful to him
Even if it is permissible
He got the benefit of trust
Without the benefit of what you trust in it
Milestones on the path to stability
Correct rooting
It is a means of stability
Correct rooting
By rooting, we mean
For a Muslim to build his knowledge and work
On stable fixed assets
Its source is the Qur’an and Sunnah
And the understanding of the nation’s predecessors
Sheikh al-Islam said in Majmu’ al-Fatawa:
We mention the universal rule
In this section for the rest of the nation
So we say
A person must have universal origins
Partialities are returned to it
To speak with knowledge and justice
Then he knows the details how they occurred
Otherwise, he remains in lies and ignorance
Ignorance and injustice in colleges
Great corruption is generated
And since the people of theology and philosophy
They built their approach on corrupt foundations
They were more people
Disturbances, complaints, and transition
From saying to saying
Sheikh al-Islam said in Majmu’ al-Fatawa:
You find people of theology most of the people
From saying to saying
We are certain of the statement in one place, and we are certain of its opposite
And the expiation of his speaker is in another place
This is evidence of uncertainty
This is why some of the predecessors said
Omar bin Abdul Aziz or others
Whoever makes his religion an object of disputes
More mobility
As for the people of Sunnah and Hadith
Of their scholars and not the benefit of their common people
He never went back on his statement or belief
Rather, they are the most patient people in this regard
Even if they are tested with all kinds of ordeals
They were tempted by all kinds of temptations
This is the condition of the prophets and their followers
From the advanced people like the people of the groove
And like them, there is laziness in this nation
From the Companions, followers and others
Ibn al-Qayyim said about the benefits
If the foundation is not close
The structure did not rise and was not established
If anything is destroyed at all
The structure collapsed or almost collapsed
The knowledgeable person's mission is to correct the foundation
And its rulings and the ignorant
It is raised in a building without a foundation
Soon his building will collapse
God Almighty said
From God and Ridwan is good
He secured the foundations of his building
On Schwager during the day
So he collapsed with it
In the fire of hell
And God does not guide
The unjust people
Remove something from the tops and roof of the building
It was easier for you to deal with it
From the ruin of the foundation
This is based on two things
The first is the validity of knowledge of God
His command, names and attributes
The second is an abstraction of submission to him
And to His Messenger and nothing else
This is the most solid foundation of the servant’s foundations
According to him, he can build whatever he wants
God set an example
This rooting is true in the Almighty’s saying
Didn't you see how God struck?
For example, a word
Good as a tree
Good
Like a good tree
Its origin is fixed and its branches are fixed
In the sky
It pays off every once in a while
With the permission of her Lord
God gives parables
For people so that they might remember
Like a malicious word
Like a malicious tree
Uprooted from the ground
She has no decision
God proves
Those who believe in the word
What is constant in this worldly life
And in the afterlife
And God misleads the wrongdoers
And God does
Whatever he wants
So God Almighty began
Then by rooting the truth and describing it
Then it was described as false rooting
Then with the fruit of both roots
Of stability and lack thereof
And the kind word
It is the word of monotheism
There is no god but God
Every call is not built on this great foundation
It is false and failed
And the end and the end
The one who invites and the one being called does not depart from Him
This word has fixed roots
In the soil of piety
Its branch was high in the sky
He is not shaken by temptation
He is not driven by whims and interests
And it bears its fruits at all times
In war and peace
Its owner does not know despair and despair
He always has work
Either with his heart or with his tongue
Or next to it
Other than that malicious tree
Which has no roots or origins
As soon as the first temptation comes
And it was uprooted from the ground
You cannot be steadfast and steadfast
This way you know the benefit of rooting
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Actions are like a vessel
If the bottom is good, the top is good
And if the bottom is spoiled
Spoil above
Milestones on the path to stability
Honesty and sincerity
It is a means of stability
He is willing to do good deeds
Bin Sharah was honest, sincere, and certain
God Almighty said
And like those who spend
Their money is seeking
God's satisfaction and stability
And fixation
From themselves
Like paradise
He hit a hill
A barrage that paid off
Double
If it doesn't hurt her
A barrage that failed
I swear by God, what you do
Seeing
Al-Tabari said in his interpretation
God Almighty does that
That they themselves were certain
Believing in God's promise to her
What I spent in obedience to Him
Without any harm
So I helped them spend their money
Seeking God's pleasure
It corrected their resolve and opinions
We are sure of that
That is why those who say it are among the people of interpretation
In his statement and affirmation
And in confirmation
Some of them said with certainty
Because fixing the souls of those who spend their money
Seeking God’s pleasure upon them
But it was out of certainty and belief
With God's promise
Ibn al-Qayyim said on the path of the two migrations
He neglects his expenses for sincerity and honesty
If he seeks His pleasure, Glory be to Him
It is sincerity
What is proven in the soul is honesty in giving
The spender intercepts it when he spends it
Two afflictions if he escapes from them
It was similar to what he mentioned in this verse
One of them is his request for his expenses
Muhammad, praise, or purpose
This is the case with most spenders
The second affliction is weakness itself
Its inaction and hesitation
Whether he does or not
The first affliction is removed by seeking God’s pleasure
The second lesion disappears
By steadfastness, the stabilization of the soul
Encouraging and strengthening it
And make the effort
What is her sincerity?
And seek God's pleasure
The will of his face is unity
This is her sincerity
Sincerity is an essential pillar of all good deeds
Its distinction cannot be achieved without it
As the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Actions are based on intentions
But each person has what he intended
Individualizing the Truth, Glory be to Him, with the intention of obedience
And filtered
From observing the creatures
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Madarij al-Salikeen
People of devotion to God and followers
They are the people of You we truly worship
All their deeds belong to God
And their sayings belong to God
And their giving to God
And their love for God
And their hatred of God
Their treatment is clear and consistent
For the sake of God alone
They do not want any reward or thanks from the people
Nor do they seek prestige among them
Neither the heart of praise nor the status in their hearts
Nor to escape from their censure
Rather, they regarded people as being inhabited by graves
It will neither harm nor benefit them
No death, no life, no resurrection
Work is for people
And seeking prestige and status with them
Their hope is for harm and benefit from them
No one knows them at all
Rather, he is ignorant about them
And ignorant of his Lord
Whoever knows the people will take them to their homes
His deeds and words are sincere
And his giving and his prevention
And his love and hate
No one treats creation other than God
Except for his ignorance of God and his ignorance of creation
Otherwise, if God is known and people are known
He preferred God’s treatment over their treatment
And the faithful
They are the ones whom God establishes
Especially in places of trial and tribulation
As God confirmed Joseph, peace be upon him
He explained this by saying that he was loyal
God Almighty said
And I was interested in it
And they were in it if it weren't for it
I see the proof of his Lord
Also let's get away from it
Badness and indecency
He is one of our loyal servants
And the accursed devil
There is no way for them
God Almighty said
He said, “My Lord, because you have misled me.”
I will beautify them on earth
And I will mislead them all
Except Your sincere servants among them
He said
He said, “By Your glory, I will mislead them all.”
Except Your sincere servants among them
Milestones on the path to stability
Faith and good deeds
It is a means of stability
Faith coupled with good deeds
Faith and work are two brothers
That is why you do not find faith in the Qur’an
Except coupled with good deeds
Faith requires action
Faith increases and confirms action
Success and prosperity
By faith and good deeds together
As God Almighty said
And the era is human
Levi lost
Except those who believe
And they did good deeds
And communicate the truth
And be patient
And the Almighty said
God strengthens those who believe
By saying constant in life
This world and the afterlife
And God misleads the wrongdoers
And he does
God does whatever He wants
Qatad said
As for the life of this world
He strengthens them with goodness and good deeds
And he said in the afterlife
That is, in the grave
God Almighty tells
He strengthens His faithful servants
That is, those who did what they had to do
From the complete faith of the heart
Which requires the actions of the limbs
And it bears fruit
So God establishes them in the life of this world
When suspicions arise
With guidance to certainty
And in what God loves
It is the soul and its desires
And in the afterlife at death
By steadfastness in the Islamic religion
And the good ending
And in the grave when the two angels were asked
For the correct answer
If it is said to the dead
From your Lord, what your religion, and from your Prophet
God is my Lord and Islam is my religion
And Muhammad is a prophet
And God misleads the wrongdoers
About what is right in this world and the hereafter
And God did not wrong them
But they wronged themselves
This verse contains an indication of
The temptation, torment, and bliss of the grave
This was also repeated in texts from the Prophet
In strife I described it
And the bliss and torment of the grave
And the working believers
They have no fear, nor do they grieve
As God Almighty said
They will have their reward
With their Lord
They have no fear, nor do they grieve
And God Almighty said
Those who believe
And they did good deeds
And they established prayer
They accused zakat
They will have their reward with their Lord
There is no fear for them
Nor do they grieve
And he said
Indeed, the guardians of God
There is no fear for them
Nor do they grieve
Those who believed and were pious
Milestones on the path to stability
Followers
It is a means of stability
Achieving followers
As God Almighty said
And this is my path
straight, so follow him
And do not follow the paths
So it separates you
And his way
That is what he commanded you
Perhaps you may become righteous
And the truth of followers
It is following the Qur’an and Sunnah
To understand the Slavs of the nation
Avoid heresies and bad doctrines
In doctrine, behavior and method
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, recommended
By following his Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs
And he said
I advise you to fear God
And hearing and obedience
Even if he was an Ethiopian slave
Who among you will live after me?
It will vary greatly
You should adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, the Mahdi
Hold on to it
And beware of new matters
Every newly invented matter is an innovation
Every innovation is misguidance
Those who follow have no fear
In the future time
Nor do they grieve over what happened before
God Almighty said
Whoever follows gifts
There is no fear for them
Nor do they grieve
And God Almighty said
They said he will not enter heaven
Except for the one who was a Hood
Or Christians
That is their wish
Say: Bring your proof
Rather
Whoever submits his face to God
He is a philanthropist
He has his reward with his Lord
There is no fear for them
Nor do they grieve
Milestones on the path to stability
Obedience to God and His Messenger
It is a means of stability
Obedience to God and His Messenger
May God bless him and grant him peace in every matter
It is a sign of faith
God Almighty said
Return him to God and the Messenger
If you are
You believe in God and today
The other is better
And the best interpretation
He said and I obeyed
God and His Messenger, if you are
Believers and obedience
The path of mercy, as he said
And obey God and the Messenger that you may
Have mercy, and it is a way
Guidance, as God Almighty said
If you obey Him, you will be guided
On the authority of Al-Fadl bin Ziyad, he said:
I heard Abu Abdullah Ahmed bin Hanbal
He says I looked in the Qur’an
I found in him obedience to the Messenger of God
May God bless him and grant him peace
Then he started reciting
Let those who disagree beware
About his command to infect them
Sedition
That a temptation may befall them
Or a painful punishment will befall them
And he repeated it and said
What is temptation and polytheism?
Perhaps it will fall into his heart
From deviation, his heart becomes distorted
He destroyed him and started reciting
This verse, no, by your Lord
They will not believe until they judge you in anything
Trees among them he said
And I heard Abu Abdullah say:
Whoever rejects the hadith of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
And peace be upon him, he is on his lips
For you and in the two Sahihs
Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him
I am not leaving anything behind
He was the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
It works unless you work on it
I am afraid if I leave something out
Who ordered me to visit?
Milestones on the path to stability
Connection to the Qur’an
It is a means of stability
And the connection to the Qur’an
Recitation, contemplation, knowledge and work
The Great Qur’an
One of the greatest stabilizers
Especially in cases of strife
It is not surprising that God began
The surah that talks about temptation
It is Surah Al-Kahf
Speaking of the Qur’an
And about God who revealed
On his servant is the book
And He did not make it crooked
Valuable to warn
Extreme distress from him
He gives good news to the believers
Those who do good deeds
That they will have a good reward
If the boys had taken shelter
Their sensual cave is an escape from temptation
Every believer is protected until the Day of Resurrection
It is the Qur’an that whoever adheres to it
He has been guided to a straight path
God Almighty said
If we change a verse
Aya's place
And God knows best what is revealed
They said it was you
Slander
But most of them do not know
Say it down
The Holy Spirit from your Lord
With the truth to confirm those who
Believe
This is good news
For Muslims
And he said
And those who disbelieved said
Had the Qur’an not been revealed to him
One sentence
Likewise, let us strengthen your heart with it
We recited it in a hymn
Al-Saadi said in his interpretation
This is among the proposals of the infidels
Which they themselves suggest
And they said
Had the Qur’an not been revealed to him
One sentence
That is, as the books were revealed before it
And what is forbidden from its revelation?
This face, but rather its descent on
This face is more complete and better
That's why he said so
We sent it down dispersed
From the Qur’an
He became more confident and stable
Especially when there are reasons for anxiety
The revelation of the Qur’an occurred
Cause it has a great website
And installing much more than that
If he had come down before then
Then remember it when its cause occurs
God Almighty has revealed
He blames those who do not consider it
And they do not understand it
And he said
Milestones on the path to stability
Think about the stories
It is one of the greatest means of stability
Consider the stories of the first two prophets
Messengers, scholars, and righteous people
The most important of which is what is stated in the Book of God
And the Sunnah of the Faithful Prophet
May God bless him and grant him peace
There is the greatest lesson in both of them
As God Almighty said
Truth and admonition
And a reminder for believers
Al-Saadi said in his interpretation
What was mentioned in this Surah
From the news of the prophets what was mentioned
He mentioned the wisdom in mentioning that
He said, "No, we will tell you nothing."
Among the Prophet's fathers is what we can prove by him
Your heart, that is, your heart
And he remains steadfast and patient as those of resolve were patient
Of the apostles
Souls become human through imitation
Active in business
And you want to compete with others
The truth is supported by mentioning its evidence
And many people did it
The Qur’an has told us stories of those who are steadfast
Of the prophets, messengers and righteous people
So he stayed until the Day of Resurrection
This is the Messenger of God, Noah, peace be upon him
He stayed among his people for a thousand years
Only fifty years
He called to God Almighty and remained steadfast
Only a few believed with him
God Almighty said
And We sent Noah to his people
He stayed among them for a thousand years
Only fifty years
So the flood took them
And they are unjust
This is the Messenger of God, Abraham, peace be upon him
He called for the worship of God
And abandon the worship of idols
So his people rejected him and became hostile to him
They even collected firewood
They lit a great fire
They threw him into it to burn him
But it was proven
And trust in God
May God protect him from their plots and deception
Similar to this is the steadfastness of the People of the Cave
That's when they stood firm in their faith
They fled with their religion to the cave
God Almighty said
We tell you the truth about them
They are safe boys
By their Lord, We have increased their guidance
And we tied to their hearts
When they got up, they said
Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth
We will not pray without him
A god
So we said too much
These
Our people took it without him
Gods
If it were not for them, they would come upon them
With clear authority
Who is more unjust than he who fabricates lies?
A lie against God
And when you distanced yourself from them and from what they worship
God took him to the cave
Published for you
Your Lord is of His mercy
And prepares for you
Who ordered you?
Attached
It is one of the greatest stories of perseverance
The story of the people of the groove
Because they were patient and preferred to be thrown into the fire
They turned away from their true religion
God Almighty said
And the cold sky
And the promised day
And witnessed and witnessed
Kill the groove owners
Fueled fire
As they sat on it
And they are sitting on it
And they do what they do
The believers are witnesses
And they did not resent them
Unless they believe
By God, the Mighty, the Praiseworthy
To whom belongs the kingdom of heaven
And the earth and God
A martyr for everything
Those who
They tempted believing men and believing women
Then they did not repent
They will have the torment of Hell
And for them is the torment of burning
Those who believe
And they did good deeds for them
Gardens
They have gardens
Rivers flow beneath it
That's a big win
These people
They are the ones who tasted it
The sweetness of faith is real
As stated in the Two Sahihs on the authority of Anas bin Malik
May God be pleased with him, he said
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Three who were in it
The taste of faith
Whoever God and His Messenger are dearest to
Of what else
Whoever loves a slave does not love him
Except for God
Whoever hates to return to disbelief
After God saved him from it
He also hates being thrown into hell
Milestones on the path to stability
It is a means of stability
Responding to the promises of God and His Messenger
May God bless him and grant him peace
God Almighty said
Even if we wrote about them
To kill yourselves
Or get out of your homes
What they did
Except a few of them
Even if they did what
They preach it, it would be good
them and more firmly
And if We had come to them
From us there is a great reward
And We guided them
A straight path
And whoever obeys God
And the Messenger are those
With those who have been blessed
God bless them
So those are with those
May God bless them
Of the prophets and the truthful ones
And the two friends
And the martyrs and the righteous
And good ones
A buddy
That is a blessing from God
Allah suffices as All-Knowing
Al-Saadi said in his interpretation
God Almighty tells
If He had written it down for His servants
Difficult orders for souls
From killing souls and leaving home
Only a few of them did it and it was rare
Let them praise their Lord
Let them thank Him for facilitating what He commanded them to do
One of the orders that makes it easy for everyone
And it's not hard to do
This is an indication
That the servant should notice
Against the abominations that are in it
To make worship easier for him
He increases his praise and thanks to his Lord
Then he told that if they did what they preach
And clean them every time according to it
So they exerted their effort
They devoted their souls to doing it and completing it
Their souls did not aspire to what they did not achieve
They were not about it
This is what a servant should do
To look at the situation he needs to
Doing it completes it
Then it increases little by little
To the extent of his knowledge and work
In matters of religion and the world
This is what the person himself aspired to
To something that has not yet been achieved or commanded
It hardly reaches that
Because of the dispersal of resolve
Laziness and inactivity occur
Then arrange what gets them to do what
They preach it and it is four things
One of them is charity
In his saying, it would have been better for them
That is, they would have been among the good guys
Those who are characterized by their descriptions of actions
The good they were commanded to do
That is, they no longer have the characteristic of evil
Because something is proven
It requires a denial against him
The second is stabilization and stability
For God strengthens those who believe
Because of what they did out of faith
Which is doing what they preached
And He establishes them in the life of this world
When temptations occur in commands and prohibitions
And misfortunes
They gain stability and succeed in carrying out orders
And leave the marriages that require it
The soul did it
And misfortunes that the servant hates
It is successful in stabilization and success in patience
Or for satisfaction or for gratitude
Then help from God descends upon him
To do this
He obtains steadfastness in religion
At death and in the grave
Also, the slave is standing
With what he ordered, he is still practicing
He misses her and others like her
This will be of help to him
To be steadfast in obedience
That is, sooner or later
Which is for the soul, heart and body
It is eternal bliss
Which neither eye has seen nor ear has heard
There is no danger to a human heart
Guidance to a straight path
This is a generality after a specificity
For the honor of being guided to the straight path
Because it includes knowledge of the truth
And his love and selflessness
And work with it
Happiness and prosperity depend on that
Guidance to a straight path
He was successful in everything good
All evil and harm were removed from him
It is a means of stability
Frequent remembrance of God Almighty
God has commanded much remembrance
And God Almighty said
And in the position of fighting
God commanded much remembrance
And God Almighty said
Dhikr is a Muslim’s fortress from Satan
On the authority of Al-Harith Al-Ash’ari, may God be pleased with him
That the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He said that God is Blessed and Most High
Yahya bin Zakaria ordered five words
Hadith
Among these words he said
And I command you to remember God
It is like that
Like a man who has left the enemy
In its wake, speed
Even if he came upon a strong fortress
He made himself one of them
Likewise, the servant does not achieve self-control
From Satan except by the remembrance of God
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Al-Wabel Al-Sayyib
If there was nothing in the remembrance except this
One strand would have been
It is true that a servant should not slacken his tongue
And it is still a dialect
By mentioning it, he does not protect himself
From his enemy except by mentioning him
The enemy will not enter it except him
The door to heedlessness, he monitors it
If he neglects it, it will attack him and prey on him
And if God Almighty is mentioned
The enemy of God Almighty has been betrayed
It became smaller and suppressed
That's why obsessive-compulsive disorder is called Qannas
That is, he whispers in the chests
If God Almighty is mentioned
Pinch any palm and contract
Ibn Abbas said: Satan
Perched on the heart of the son of Adam
If he forgets, neglects, and whispers
If he mentions God Almighty, he will be humiliated
And in Sahih Al-Bukhari
On the authority of Abu Musa, may God be pleased with him, he said
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Like one who remembers his Lord
And he who does not remember his Lord
Like the living and the dead
And in the two Sahihs on the authority of Abu Hurairah
May God be pleased with him, he said
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
God Almighty says
And my servant is through me
And I am with him if he remembers me
If he reminds me
I mentioned it myself
In myself
And if he mentions me in public
I mentioned it in public
Better than them
Even if he comes closer to me by an inch
She went arm in arm with him
Even if it comes close
An arm to me
I approached him closely
And if he comes to me, he walks
And in Al-Tirmidhi, on the authority of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, on the authority of God Almighty, he says, “My servant is every servant of mine who remembers Me while he touches his neck.” This hadith is the chapter of the discourse and the detail between the one who remembers and the one who strives, for the one who remembers and struggles is better than the one who remembers without jihad.
The heedless Mujahid and the one who remembers without jihad is better than the Mujahid who is heedless of God Almighty. The best of those who remember are those who fight and the best of Mujahidin are those who remember. God Almighty said.
O you who have believed, when you meet a group, stand firm and remember God often that you may succeed
So he commanded them to remember a lot and strive together so that they might have the hope of success, as God Almighty said
O you who have believed, remember God frequently, and God Almighty said
And the men who remember God often, and the women who remember means often, and the Almighty said
When you have performed your rituals, remember God as you remember your fathers, or more intensely
It contains the command to mention frequently and strongly due to the servant’s intense need for it and not being able to do without it for the blink of an eye
Any moment in which the servant neglected the remembrance of God Almighty was on him, not for him
His loss in it was greater than what he gained in his neglect of God
There is no doubt that the heart rusts just as copper, silver, and other things rust
And his evacuation is with remembrance, for he exalts it until he leaves it like a white mirror
If the remembrance is left rusty, then if it is mentioned it is polished
The heart rusted with two things: heedlessness and sin, and it was cleaned with two things: seeking forgiveness and remembrance
Whoever is negligent most of his time, rust will accumulate on his heart
And it rusted according to his negligence
If the heart rusts, the forms of information will not be imprinted in it as it is
He sees falsehood in the form of truth and truth in the form of falsehood
Because when rust accumulated on it, it became dark
It did not show the facts as they were
If rust accumulates on it and turns black
And the archer rode him, corrupting his perception and understanding
He neither accepts what is true nor denies what is false
This is the greatest punishment of the heart
The root of this is negligence and following one’s desires
They obscure the light of the heart and blind the sight
God Almighty said
And do not obey him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desires
His matter was excessive
If a servant wants to imitate a man
Let him see whether he is one of the people of remembrance or one of the forgivers
Is the ruler governed by desire or revelation?
If the ruler over him is his passion
He is one of the negligent people and his affairs are excessive
He did not imitate him or follow him
It leads him to destruction
The meaning of excess has been interpreted as waste
That is, his command that he must adhere to and carry out
He was mature and successful
Lost and lost
It was interpreted as extravagance
That is, he overdid it
It is explained by depreciation
It was interpreted contrary to the truth
They are all similar statements
What is meant is that God Almighty
He forbade the obedience of those who combine these qualities
A man should look to his sheikh, his role model, and his follower
If he finds him like that, let him stay away from him
And if he finds it among those who often remember God Almighty
And follow the Sunnah
His command is not limited to him
Rather, he is firm in his matter
Let him hold on to his stitches
There is no difference between the living and the dead except with mention
So, like the one who remembers his Lord and the one who does not remember his Lord
Like the living and the dead
Milestones on the path to stability
Feeling inadequate
It is a means of stability
Feeling of constant failure
Especially in the highest positions of good deeds
God Almighty said
And do not wish to be too much
And he said
Like any prophet
Many rabbis fought with him
They were not weak
What befell them for the sake of God
They were not weak and did not submit
And God loves those who are patient
All they said was that
They said, “Lord, forgive us.”
Our sins
And our extravagance in our affairs
And steady our feet
And grant us victory over the disbelieving people
So God gave them
The reward of the world
And good reward in the afterlife
And God loves the doers of good
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Zad al-Ma'ad
When the people knew that the enemy
He only points out to them their sins
And Satan only makes them slip
And defeat them with it
And there are two types
Negligence in the right
Or exceed a limit
Victory depends on obedience
They said, “Lord, forgive us.”
Our sins and extravagance in our affairs
Then they knew that their Lord was Blessed and Most High
If he does not establish their feet and support them
They were not able to stand on their own feet
And their victory over their enemies
They asked him what they knew was in his hand rather than theirs
And if he does not establish their feet and support them
They did not stand firm and did not win
So they gave the two people their due rights
The position of the required
It is monotheism and turning to Him, Glory be to Him
And the place of removing the obstacle to victory
It is sins and extravagance
Then God Almighty warned them against obeying their enemy
And he told them that if they obeyed them
They lost this world and the hereafter
This exposes the hypocrites who obeyed the polytheists
When they were victorious and victorious on Uhud
Then God Almighty told us that He is the Master of the Believers
He is the best of helpers
Whoever supports him is the Mansour
Milestones on the path to stability
Do not be deceived by the world
One of the means of steadfastness is not to be deceived by the life of this world
Many of them fall from the road
The world and its squares wanted them to be a battlefield
Like empty palm trees
Desiring this world and being keen on it rather than the afterlife
It is the path of the unbelievers and the arrogant
God Almighty said, “The Jews described me.”
Say, “If you have the Hereafter home with God.”
Pure without people
Then wish for death if you are truthful
They will never wish for it with what their hands have provided
And God is All-Knowing of the wrongdoers
You will find them to be the most eager for life among those who associate others with others
Someone would like to live a thousand years
And he does not escape from the torment
To live long
And God sees what they do
And God Almighty said
Whoever disbelieves in God after his belief
Except for one who is forced and whose heart is at peace with faith
But whoever explains disbelief is relieved
The wrath of God is upon them
And for them is a great punishment
This is because they preferred the life of this world over the afterlife
And God does not guide the disbelieving people
He said: We sent down the Torah, in which is guidance and light
It is ruled by the prophets who submitted to the Jews, the Rabbis, and the rabbis
Because they had memorized the Book of God and bore witness to it
So do not fear people, fear Me, and do not exchange My revelations for a small price
And whoever does not rule by what God has revealed, those are the disbelievers
And he said
And when God took a covenant from those who were given the Book that You would make it clear to the people
And do not conceal it, lest they cast it behind their backs
They bought it for a small price
So evil is what they buy
God Almighty said in describing the unbelievers
A thousand times
A book We have sent down to you so that you may bring people out of darkness into light
With the permission of their Lord, to the path of the Mighty, the Praiseworthy
God is the One to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Woe to the disbelievers from a severe punishment
Those who prefer the life of this world over the hereafter and turn away from the path of God and seek it to be crooked
Those are far astray
He said in describing one of the scholars of the Children of Israel, who was the predecessor of the deviants among the scholars
And recite to them the story of the One to whom We gave Our signs, but he slipped away from them, and Satan followed him, and he became one of the deceivers
If We had willed, We would have lifted him up with it, but he remained devoted to the earth and followed his desires
His likeness is like that of a dog: if you bear him down, he will pant, or you leave him panting. That is like the people who denied Our signs.
He narrates stories so that they might reflect. How bad it is for me to be like the people who denied Our signs while they were wronging themselves.
Ibn al-Qayyim said in informing the signatories about the Lord of the Worlds, so He, Glory be to Him, likened one to whom He gave His Book and taught him knowledge that others withheld from him.
So he abandoned working on it and followed his own desires, preferring God’s wrath to his satisfaction, his worldly life to his afterlife, and the creation to the Creator through the dog.
He is one of the vilest animals, the meanest in status, the meanest in soul, his ambition does not go beyond his stomach, and the most greedy and greedy.
There is a wonderful secret in the analogy of someone who prefers this world and its shortcomings over God and the hereafter, despite his abundance of knowledge, to a dog when it is panting.
It is that this person who is in the condition that God mentioned about him slipping away from His signs and following his own desires was due to his intense longing for this world.
Because his heart is cut off from God and the Hereafter, he is extremely anxious for it, and his eagerness is similar to the constant eagerness of a dog when he disturbs him and leaves him.
And in the two Sahihs on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: What is poverty? I fear for you, but I fear for you that the world will become miserable for you.
Just as it was spread over those before you, they competed with it as they competed with it, and it destroyed you as it destroyed them
When Pharaoh’s magicians saw the clear signs, they believed in their Lord, but Pharaoh threatened them with death, so they remained steadfast
They said, "We will not forgive you for the clear proofs that have come to us. By the One who created us, He fulfilled what He chose. You will only decree this worldly life."
We believed in our Lord to forgive us our sins and the magic that He forced us to do, and God is better and more lasting
Milestones on the path to steadfastness: not being exposed to affliction
One of the means of steadfastness is not being exposed to calamities and temptations, so he does not wish for them, seek them out, or search for them in order to confront them
But if she comes to him and attacks him, be patient, seek caution, and use legitimate medicine with her
In the two Sahihs on the authority of Abdullah bin Abi Awfa, may God be pleased with them, he said that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
On some of his days when he encountered the enemy, he waited until when the sun set, he stood up to them and said
O people, do not hope to meet the enemy, and ask God for safety. If you meet them, be patient
And they knew that Paradise is under the shade of swords. Then he said, “O God, the Revealer of the Book, the One who moves the clouds, and the Defeator of the Parties.”
Defeat them and give us victory over them. The Sheikh of Islam said in Majmu’ al-Fatawa, and the evidence of the Sunnah has come
That whoever is afflicted without the eyes being exposed to it, and whoever is exposed to affliction, fear will befall him, like his saying, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
Do not ask for leadership, because if you give it for a question, you will be entrusted with it, and if you give it for a non-question, you will help with it
Among him is his saying: Do not wish to meet the enemy, but ask God for well-being. If you meet them, be patient
And in the Sunnahs, whoever asks for the judiciary and seeks help for it and is entrusted with it, and whoever does not ask for the judiciary and does not seek help for it, God will send down to him an angel who will repay him.
In a narration, even if it was forced upon him, and in the two Sahih books, he, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said about the plague
If you hear of it on a land, do not approach it, and if it occurs on a land while you are on it, do not escape from it
And from it is that he, peace and blessings of God be upon him, forbade vows, and from it is his saying, “Leave me as I have left you, for those who were before you perished.”
They ask a lot of questions and disagree with their prophets, so if I forbid you something, avoid it, and if I command you to do something, then do as much of it as you can.
Milestones on the path to steadfastness, the company of the steadfast
Among the means of steadfastness is the company of steadfast scholars, patient workers, and honest companions, God Almighty said
And be patient with those who call on their Lord in the mornings and evenings, seeking His face, and do not turn your eyes away from them, desiring the adornments of this world’s life, and do not obey him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance, and he follows his own desires, and his affair has been lost.
The most steadfast people on the path are the People of the Book and the Sunnah who follow the understanding of the nation’s predecessors, and at their head are the divine scholars who are the heirs of the prophets.
They are the victorious group that is victorious on the truth. In Sahih Muslim, on the authority of Thawban, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: A group from my nation will continue to prevail on the truth, and whoever takes it for them will not harm them until God’s command comes, and they are like this.
Imam Ahmad, may God have mercy on him, said in the statement of the Victorious Sect: If they are not the authors of hadith, then I do not know who they are
Ahmad bin Sinan, may God have mercy on him, said: They are the people of knowledge and the authors of narrations, and Ali bin al-Madini, may God have mercy on him, said: They are the authors of hadith
Al-Bukhari, may God have mercy on him, said, meaning the companions of hadith, and Yazid bin Harun, may God have mercy on him, said, “If they are not the companions of hadith, then I do not know who they are.”
The Sheikh of Islam said about the people of hadith, as in fatwas, that they are the most complete of people in reason, the most just in analogy, the most correct in their opinion, the most sound in their speech, the most correct in their theory, the most guided in reasoning, and the most accurate in argumentation.
They have the most perfect erudition and the most sincere in inspiration. Imam Ahmad, Al-Shafi’i and others were not noble in the eyes of the nation except by following the hadith and the Sunnah.
Therefore, the scholars were among the people of hadith and narrations who spoke of wisdom, said Abu Othman al-Jabri
Whoever commands the Sunnah against himself in word and deed speaks wisdom, and whoever commands his own desires in word and deed speaks heresy.
God Almighty said, “And if you obey Him, you will be guided.” And from this, if only one scholar of hadith and narration were on the face of the earth.
It would be obligatory for the people of the earth to follow him because he is the true group that the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, commanded them to adhere to
When Ishaq bin Rahwi was asked about the group, Muhammad bin Aslam al-Tusi said, “A group,” and Ishaq said, “I have not heard a scholar in fifty years.”
He was more committed to the influence of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, than Muhammad bin Aslam
Ibn al-Qayyim commented on the words of Ishaq ibn Rahwi about relieving the anxious in the traps of Satan, saying, “And he spoke the truth, by God.”
If there is an era in which there is someone who knows the Sunnah and calls for it, then it is the proof, it is the consensus, and it is the greatest predominance
And it is the path of the believers, which whoever abandons it and follows other than it, by God, God will not turn away and will cast him into Hell, and an evil destination.
He said in informing the signatories that the consensus, the argument, and the greatest majority is the scholar who has the truth
Even if he was alone, even if the people of the earth disagreed with him, and all of the people were estranged during the time of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, except for a small group
They were the group, and it was the judges at that time, the muftis, the caliph, and their abnormal followers
Imam Ahmad alone was the group, and this statement is confirmed by the impact of Ibn Masoud, may God be pleased with him
As the group says what agrees with the truth, even if you are alone, and what distinguishes the people of Hadith and Sunnah is steadfastness in the method
The Sheikh of Islam said in fatwas, and the people of Hadith and Sunnah are the greatest people in knowledge, certainty, reassurance, and tranquility.
They are the ones who know and know that they know and they are certain of the truth and do not doubt or doubt
This is in contrast to other scholars of theology and philosophy. He said in fatwas that you find scholars of theology the most people who move from one saying to another
We are certain of the statement in one place, and we are certain of its opposite, and that its speaker is declared an unbeliever in another place, and this is evidence of uncertainty
This is why some of the predecessors, Omar bin Abdul Aziz or others, said that he made his religion a target for the most frequent disputes
As for the people of Sunnah and Hadith, none of their scholars nor anyone who is righteous among their common people is known to have ever retracted his statement and belief
Rather, they are the most patient people in this regard, even if they are tested by all kinds of adversities and tempted by all kinds of temptations
This is the condition of the prophets and their followers from the past, such as the people of Al-Akhdood and the like, and the predecessors of this nation from the Companions, the Successors, and other imams.
In short, the steadfastness and stability among the people of Hadith and Sunnah is many times greater than what is found among the people of theology and philosophy
Rather, the philosopher is more confused and confused about his affairs than the speaker, because the speaker has the truth that he received from the prophets that the philosopher does not have.
By the scholars of hadith and narration, we do not merely mean those who work in it as authenticating, weakening, hearing, and approving.
Then after that, they differ from the approach of the Salaf in belief and behavior, but rather what is meant by the people of hadith
Those who venerate the texts and govern them in all aspects of religion, in the manner of the ancient Companions, the Successors, and the established Imams.
The predecessors used to disparage the people of color who did not stick to a statement. Abu Masoud entered upon Hudhayfah while he was sick and attributed it to him.
So Abu Masoud or Sana said, and Hudhayfah said: Misguidance is the right of misguidance to know what you denied and to deny what you knew.
Beware of variation in religion. Ibrahim Al-Nakha’i said: They viewed variation in religion as a result of doubt in the hearts
The Sheikh of Islam said about the people of innovation in the collection of fatwas: They do not adhere to one religion and are overcome by doubts
This is God’s custom for those who turn away from the Qur’an and the Sunnah, and therefore the Muslim should avoid and stay away from the people of innovation and misguidance.
Unless there is an interest in mingling with them, such as a sincere invitation or debate, and that only happens to the capable person who knows the true approach and the approaches of the people of falsehood.
Sufyan al-Thawri said: Whoever sits with an innovator is not safe from one of three things: either it will be a temptation for others, or something will fall into his heart and it will cause him to lose, and God will enter him into Hell.
Or he says, “By God, I don’t care what he says, and I am confident in myself.” Whoever believes in God’s religion for even the blink of an eye, he will take it away from him.
Al-Shatibi said in Al-I’tisam: A person may be certain about a matter of the Sunnah, but the person of desire may present to him a desire that the word can say has no basis, or he may add to him a restriction of his opinion about it and he accepts it.
If he returns to what he knew and finds it dark, then either he feels it and returns it with knowledge or is unable to return it, or he does not feel it and so he goes on with the one who perished.
Milestones on the path to steadfastness: fulfilling promises and contracts
One of the means of stability is the fulfillment of covenants and contracts
In Sahih Muslim, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: There was no prophet before me except that it was his duty to guide his nation to the best of what he taught them and to warn them of the evil of what he taught them.
And indeed, this nation of yours has its well-being at its beginning, and its end will be afflicted with affliction and things that you deny, and tribulation will come, and some of them will weaken one another, and tribulation will come, and the believer will say, “This is my destruction.”
Then it will be revealed and temptation will come, and the believer will say: This is this
Whoever loves to be saved from Hell and enter Paradise, his death will come to him while he believes in God and the Last Day.
And let him come to the people he likes to come to. Whoever pledges allegiance to an imam and gives him the gift of his hand and the fruit of his heart, let him obey him if he can.
If another comes to dispute with him, then behead the other. God Almighty leads astray those who break covenants with God and with creation, as God Almighty said.
God is not ashamed to give some example or something above it
As for those who believe, they know that it is the truth from their Lord, and as for those who disbelieve, they say, “What did God mean by this, for example?”
He leads many astray thereby, and guides many thereby, but He only leads astray thereby the transgressors
Those who break God's covenant after its confirmation and sever what God has commanded to be joined and spread corruption on earth - those are the losers.
Al-Saadi said in his interpretation: God Almighty says: God is not ashamed to give an example, that is, an example, whether it is part or greater than it.
Because proverbs express wisdom and clarify the truth, and God is not ashamed of the truth, as if this were an answer to those who denied using proverbs about despicable things.
He objected to God about that, so there is no room for objection in that. Rather, it is part of God’s teaching to His servants and His mercy toward them, so it must be received with acceptance and thanks.
That is why he said: As for those who believe, they know that it is the truth from their Lord, so they understand it and reflect on it
If they know what is summarized in detail, their knowledge and faith will increase thereby, otherwise they know that it is true and what is summarized is true.
Even if the truth about it is hidden from them, they will know that God did not strike it in vain, but rather out of great wisdom and abundant grace.
As for those who disbelieve, they say, “What did God mean by this example?”
They object and are confused, and their disbelief increases in addition to their disbelief, just as the believers have increased in faith in addition to their faith, and for this reason He said, “He leads astray many thereby, and He guides many thereby.”
This is the state of believers and unbelievers when the Qur’anic verses were revealed, God Almighty said
And when a surah is revealed, some of them say, “Which of you has this increased faith?”
As for those who believe, it has increased their faith and they rejoice
As for those in whose hearts is a disease, it has increased their abomination to their abomination, and they died while they were disbelievers
There is no greater blessing for the servants than the revelation of Quranic verses
Despite this, there will be distress, confusion, and darkness for people, and an increase in evil to their evil
And for a people there is a gift, mercy, and an increase in goodness to their well-being
Glory be to Him who causes error between His servants and who alone guides and leads astray
Then he mentioned his wisdom in misleading those whom he leads astray, and that this is justice from God Almighty
He said, “And He leads astray only the transgressors, that is, those who disobey God.”
Those who are stubborn to the Messengers of God, for whom immorality has become a description
They do not want a substitute for it
God Almighty’s wisdom required that they be led astray because they were not fit for guidance
His wisdom and virtue also required the guidance of those who were characterized by faith and good deeds
There are two types of immorality: the type that leads to a way out of religion, which is the immorality that necessitates leaving the faith
As mentioned in this verse and similar things
And a type that does not come out of faith, as in the Almighty’s saying
O you who have believed, if a sinner comes to you with news, investigate
Then he described the transgressors, saying, “Those who break God’s covenant after its covenant.”
This applies to the covenant between them and Him and between them and His servants
Which he confirmed to them with heavy covenants and obligations
They do not care about these covenants, but rather break them, abandon His commands, and commit His prohibitions
They break the covenants between them and creation
They cut off what God has commanded to be joined
This includes many things
God has commanded us to establish what is between us and Him by believing in Him and performing His servitude
And what is between us and His Messenger is by believing in him, loving him, exalting him, and fulfilling his rights
And what is between us and our parents, relatives, friends, and all other people
By fulfilling those rights that God commanded us to attain
As for the believers, they achieved what God commanded them to achieve regarding these rights
And they did it perfectly
As for the sinners, they cut it off and threw it behind their backs
They resent it by immorality, estrangement, and committing sins
It is corruption on earth
These are any of these characteristics
They are the ones who help in this world and the hereafter
He limited the loss to them because their loss is general in all their circumstances
They have no kind of profit
Because every good deed is conditioned by faith
He who has no faith has no work
This loss is the loss of disbelief
As for loss, it may be disbelief or it may be sin
It may be negligence in leaving out what is recommended
Mentioned in the Almighty’s saying
Man is in loss
This is general for every creature
Except for those who are characterized by faith and good deeds
And advise one another to the truth and advise one another to be patient
And the reality of missing out on goodness
Which the servant was in the process of collecting while he was within his ability
And when the predecessors among the People of the Book broke their covenants with God
God punished them with the most severe earthly punishments
As God Almighty said
Because they broke their covenant, He cursed them
And We made their hearts hard
They distort words from their proper place
They forgot a portion of what they were reminded of
And you still find traitors among them
Except a few of them
So pardon them and forgive
God loves doers of good
And from those who said
We are Christians who have taken their covenant
They forgot a portion of what they were reminded of
So we tempted enmity among them
And contentment until the Day of Resurrection
God will inform them
What they were doing
And he said
And those who break God's covenant
After his covenant
And they cut off
And they cut off what God has commanded
To deliver
And they spread corruption on earth
The land of those is cursed
And they have a bad home
Breaking promises is one of the characteristics of hypocrites
Those who strayed, God caused their hearts to stray
In the two Sahihs
On the authority of Abdullah bin Omar
That the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Four of those who were in it
He was a pure hypocrite
And whoever has one of them in him
There was a streak of hypocrisy in him
Until he leaves her
If it comes from Khan
And if it happened, he lied
And if he made a covenant, he would betray him
And if he quarrels, he breaks his fast
And in the two Sahihs
On the authority of Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with them both
On the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said
The treacherous will raise his banner on the Day of Resurrection
It is said
This is the treachery of so-and-so son of so-and-so
Milestones on the path to stability
God's victory
It is a means of stability
Supporting God’s religion in its beliefs and rulings
In every matter there is support for Islam and Muslims
Especially in the time when Al-Nasser is respected
There are many enemies and traitors
God Almighty said
And may God help those who help Him
God is powerful and mighty
And the Almighty said
O you who have believed, if you support God, He will support you and make your feet firm
As for those who disbelieve, it is miserable for them and their deeds are astray
Al-Saadi said in his interpretation
This is a command from God Almighty to believers
To support God by practicing His religion and calling to Him
And jihad against his enemies
What is meant by this is the face of God
If they do that
May God grant them victory and make their feet firm
That is, it binds their hearts with patience, reassurance, and steadfastness
Their bodies are patient with that
He helps them against their enemies
This is a promise from a generous and truthful one
The one who supports him with words and deeds
His Lord will support him
The means of victory are facilitated for him, such as steadfastness and other things
As for those who disbelieve in their Lord
And they supported falsehood
They are in misery
Any setback in their affairs and disappointment
And their deeds are astray
That is, nullify their actions by which they deceive the truth
So their plotting returned to them
Their deeds, by which they claim to seek the face of God, have been invalidated
That is misguidance and misery for those who disbelieve
Because they hated what God revealed of the Qur’an
Which God sent down as a benefit to His servants and a success for them
They did not accept him
Rather, they hated him and hated him
So he thwarted their actions
It is a means of stability
Do not be deceived by the large number of perishing people
Nor the lack of those who walk
He is not embarrassed by the stubbornness of the violators
And there is no one to take for those who are negligent
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Madarij al-Salikeen
And when he was seeking the straight path
He asked for something that most people would ignore
He wants to follow the path of accompanying him in it, in which he is extremely few and proud
Souls are innate to the loneliness of exclusivity
And be happy with your companion
God Almighty alerted the companion on this path
And they are the ones whom God has blessed
Of the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs and the righteous
And those are good companions
So he added the path to the companions who travel with him
They are the ones whom God has blessed
To be removed from the seeker for guidance and following the path
His uniqueness from the people of his time and his kind
And let him know that his companion is on this path
They are the ones whom God has blessed
He does not care if those who mourn him disagree with him
They are the least valued
Even if they are the largest in number
As some predecessors said
You are on the right path
And do not be lonely because of the lack of those who travel
Beware of the path of falsehood
And do not be deceived by the abundance of those who perish
And the more you feel lonely in your uniqueness
So look at the former comrade
He was keen to catch up with them
He turned a blind eye to everyone else
They will not avail you of anything before God
And if they shout at you on your way
Don't pay attention to them
You don't pay attention to them
They took you and hindered you
Milestones on the path to stability
Charity
It is a means of stability
Ihsan is with truth and creation
Ihsan with God by uniting Him
And kindness to creation
By doing their best for the sake of God Almighty
This is one of God's greatest deeds
God Almighty said
Your Lord has decreed that you should not worship anyone but Him and that you be kind to your parents
So this verse mentioned two good deeds
Ihsan with the Creator
By worshiping Him alone, He has no partner
And kindness to creation
The greatest kindness to them is the parents
Also, the greatest sin is abuse
Abuse by polytheism and disbelief with God
And an insult to creation
As in the Almighty’s saying
Have you seen the one who lies about religion?
That is the one who calls the orphan
He does not like to feed the poor
So he disobeyed God by denying it
And he harmed people
You mean the weak orphan?
And not urging him to give alms to the poor
His reward was a great torment on the Day of Resurrection
God Almighty said
As for the one who was given his book in his left hand
He says: I wish I had not been given my book
I did not know what my account was
I wish she were the judge
My money is of no use to me
My authority has perished from me
Take it and boil it
As for hell, pray for him
In a chain whose cubit is seventy cubits, so follow it
He did not believe in God Almighty
He does not encourage feeding the poor
He has no boyfriend here today
There is no food except after two washings
Only sinners eat it
From benevolence to creation
Spending for the sake of God
God Almighty said
Those who spend their money for the sake of God and then do not follow
Then they will not follow back what they have spent from us, nor will their reward be granted to them by their Lord, nor will there be fear upon them, nor will they grieve
Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity followed by harm
God is Rich and Merciful
And he said
Those who spend their money day and night, secretly and openly
They will have their reward with their Lord, and they will have no fear, nor will they grieve
The reward of the doers of good is that God will be with them for stability, guidance, and success, as God Almighty said
Indeed, whoever submits his face to God and is a doer of good will have his reward with his Lord, and they will have no fear nor will they grieve
He said that God is with those who fear and those who are doers of good
And he said, “When he reached his maturity and attained maturity, We gave him wisdom and knowledge, and thus We reward the doers of good.”
And he said, “And those who strive for Us, We will surely guide them to Our ways. Indeed, God is with the doers of good.”
Milestones on the path to steadfastness: Insecurity from God’s deception
One of the means of steadfastness is the lack of security from God’s deception, because security from God’s deception leads to sin
Relying on God's mercy, ignoring God's punishment, the Almighty said
And if the people of the towns had believed and feared, We would have granted them blessings from heaven and earth, but they lied, so We seized them for what they were earning.
Are the people of the villages safe from our punishment coming to them overnight while they are sleeping?
The people of the villages were safe that our sacrifice would come to them while they were playing
Do they believe in God’s deception? No one will be safe from God’s deception except the people who are losers
Ibn Katheer said in his interpretation, “No one is safe from God’s deception except the people who are losers.”
That is why Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may God have mercy on him, said: The believer performs acts of obedience while being compassionate and fearful
The immoral person commits sins while he is safe. Al-Saadi said in his interpretation: This noble verse contains eloquent intimidation.
However, the servant should not be safe based on the faith he has
Rather, he is still afraid and afraid that he will be afflicted with a calamity that will take away what he has of faith
And he continues to pray by saying, O converter of hearts, make my heart firm on your religion
And he must work and strive for every cause that will save him from evil when temptations occur
Even if the servant is in the state he is in, he is not certain of safety
Since deeds have their endings, the one who walks towards God is always in fear and fear
In the two Sahihs, on the authority of Abdullah bin Masoud, he narrates on the authority of Al-Sadiq Al-Maduq, may God bless him and grant him peace
One of you will do the work of the people of Paradise until there is only an arm's length between him and it
Then what is written overtakes him and he does the work of the people of Hell and enters it
And one of you does the work of the people of Hell until there is only an arm's length between him and it
So what is written overtakes him and he does the work of the people of Paradise and enters it
And in the two Sahihs, the wording is by Muslim on the authority of Ali, may God be pleased with him, who said
We were at a funeral in Baqi al-Gharqad, and the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, came to us
So they sat down and we sat around him while he had Fennecs' sock, and he started poking his own sock
Then he said, “None of you has a soul.”
Except that God has written its place in Paradise and Hell
Unless I wrote naughty or happy
He said: A man said: O Messenger of God, shall we not stay on our letter and call for action?
Whoever is among the people of happiness will become the work of the people of happiness
Whoever is among the people of misery will become the work of the people of misery
He, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: Work, for everyone is facilitated
As for the happy people, they are pleased with the work of the happy people
As for the people of misery, they are pleased with the work of the people of misery
Then he read
As for the one who gives, is pious, and believes in good deeds
We will make it easy for him
As for him who is stingy and seeks help
And he lied with goodness
We will ease his hardship
Therefore, it was one of the supplications of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
Lord, help me and do not help me
Support me and do not support me
And plot against me and do not plot against me
And guide me and facilitate guidance for me
And grant me victory over those who oppress me
Lord, make me thankful to you
Remember me
You are fearful, you are obedient
Here's a mess
I give you my refuge and repentance
Lord accept my repentance
And wash my grain
Answer my call
And prove my argument
Guide my heart and guide my tongue
And the ugliness of my heart came
Conclusion
After this round with stability features
We conclude that the exponent of stability
To know that God is the stabilizer
Then we seek to do so through legitimate means
Which came in the Qur’an and Sunnah
Of supplication and trust in God
Honesty and sincerity
Faith, good deeds and followers
And obedience to God and His Messenger
And the connection to the Qur’an
And ponder the stories
Responding to sermons and remembering God
And a feeling of failure
And not to be deceived by the world
And not being exposed to affliction
And from the company of the steadfast
And fulfillment of promises and contracts
And God's victory
And do not be deceived by the large number of perishing people
And charity
And insecurity is a result of God's deception
O Stabilizer of hearts
Firm our hearts on your religion
Oh God, O Guardian of Islam and its people
We remain steadfast in Islam until we meet you with it
Our last claim
Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds
