Rectifying Souls

Ibn Taymiyyah (raḥimahu Allāh) declared the Twelvers “atheist infidels” for the center pole that holds up their belief, which is belief in an infallible imam, and it's just one of several bases for their kufer. Ibn Taymiyyah (raḥimahu Allāh) says: “Rather, what is meant is that both sects [Ismāʿīliyyah and Rafidah] claim the need for an infallible person other than the Messenger, but the Twelvers consider the infallible one to be one of the Twelve, and they make the need for him in preserving and conveying the Shari'ah, and these are atheist infidels.

✨ A House in Paradise ✨ The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “I guarantee a house on the outskirts of Paradise, a house in the middle of Paradise, and a house in the highest part of Paradise for one who 1) gives up arguing even if he is right 2) gives up lying even while joking 3) and who makes his character excellent.”

عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا زَعِيمٌ بِبَيْتٍ فِي رَبَضِ الْجَنَّةِ وَبَيْتٍ فِي وَسَطِ الْجَنَّةِ وَبَيْتٍ فِي أَعْلَى الْجَنَّةِ لِمَنْ تَرَكَ الْمِرَاءَ وَإِنْ كَانَ مُحِقًّا وَتَرَكَ الْكَذِبَ وَإِنْ كَانَ مَازِحًا وَحَسُنَ خُلُقُهُ

Great actions bring great rewards. Without a doubt, stepping away from an argument even when one is right requires a lot from a person, it demands significant inner strength, character and patience. But the person who leaves an argument for the sake of Allah, Allah will have His angels defend him and protect his honour on his behalf. Similar is the case of the one who abandons the act of lying, even in jest, which often generates much amusement and is widely embraced, but stands in opposition to the teachings and principles of Islam that generally condemn lying. Consequently, individuals who forsake such conduct, foregoing the allure of humor and attention in the process, are promised immense rewards. Islam places a premium on the refinement of one’s character, endeavoring to mold individuals endowed with integrity and upright principles and values. • The Best Amongst You The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The best among you are those who have the best manners and character." (al-Bukhari) • Heaviness on the Scale of Good Deeds In another Hadith, he said, "Nothing is placed on the scale that is heavier than good character. Indeed, the person with good character will have attained the rank of the person of fasting and prayer." (at-Tirmidhi) • A Sign of Good Faith The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The most perfect believer in faith is the one whose character is finest and who is kindest to his wife." (at-Tirmidhi) • Closeness to the Messenger of Allah in the Hereafter The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم, "The dearest and nearest among you to me on the Day of Judgment will be the one who is the best in character..." (at-Tirmidhi) Good character is among the most crucial aspects of a Muslim's faith. Many Ahadith of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم depict his teachings that good character encompasses traits like honesty, kindness, patience, humility, and respect towards others. These traits not only elevate a Muslim's character but also enhance their worship and relationship with Allah. Good character, therefore, is a fundamental aspect of a Muslim's faith. — Shaykh Musa Jibril حفظه الله https://t.me/LightOfTheTruth

"Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم was asked which of the people are tried most severely, he didn’t say it was the oppressors, tyrants, Fussāq, sinners, or Kuffār. He said “The prophets.” He said, “The prophets and those who come next to them, then those next to them.” He صلى الله عليه وسلم made it clear that a man is afflicted and tried according to his Īmān. If his Īmān is firm, then the trials are more severe." — Shaykh Ahmad Jibril حفظه الله
