Yunus ibn Ubayd rahimahu’Allah said: “The most astonishing thing I have heard in the world are three statements (words): “The statement of Ibn Sīrīn: ‘I have never envied anyone for anything ever.’ And the statement of Muwarriq: ‘I have been calling upon Allah for a need for forty years, and He has not fulfilled it for me, yet I have never despaired of it.’ And the statement of Hassān Ibn Abu Sinān "And there is nothing easier than being cautious; if something is doubtful to you then leave it."

It was narrated that Umm Habibah, the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “Whoever prays twelve rak’ahs in a day and night, a house will be built for him in Paradise because of them.” [Muslim] Imām Ibn al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullāh) was asked: "Is the one who prays them and is consistent upon them—on the day he prays them—have a house built for him in Paradise? Or, if he prays them for three days, for example, will three houses be built for him? Or how is it?” He replied (rahimahu’Allah): “Whoever prays twelve rakʿahs in a day and a night, Allah builds for him a house in Paradise—this applies in general. Then, if he maintains them consistently, it becomes that for every day that passes in which he prays them, a house is built for him in Paradise.” [Fatāwā Nūr ʿalā al‑Darb] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1970289650305532125?s=46

Ibn al-Jawzi, rahimahu’Allah, said: The scholars of tafsir said, “At-tajassus (spying) is searching for the faults of the Muslims and their private matters, meaning let not one of you search for the fault of his brother to expose it if Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has concealed it.” [al-Ādāb al-Shar‘iyyah 1/328] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1967711718676775134?s=4

‎The awe of the Messenger ﷺ in the hearts of the imams and the righteous. ‎Imām Mālik, rahimahu’Allah, said: “Abd al-Raḥmān ibn al-Qāsim would mention the Prophet ﷺ, and one would look at his complexion as though blood had drained from it, and his tongue had dried in his mouth—out of awe for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.” ‎[Majmūʿ al-Fatāwā 1/227] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1965455198853173691?s=4

Imām Ibn al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullāh) said: "Good life is not as some people understand it: being safe from afflictions of poverty, sickness, and distress. No, rather good life is when a person has a good heart, an open chest, and is at peace with Allah's decree and fate. If good fortune befalls him, he is thankful, and that is better for him; and if adversity befalls him, he is patient, and that is better for him. This is the good life, and it is the comfort of the heart. As for abundance of wealth and bodily health, it may be a cause of misery and exhaustion for a person." [Fatawa Islamiyah Vol. 4/64] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1965062279893852422?s=46

Al-Hāfidh Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali, rahimahullāh, said: "Allah did not send a prophet except from Ash-Shām, and if He did not send him from it, he migrated to it.

Imam Ash-Shawkani rahimahu’Allah said regarding the Mawlid: "Until now I have not found evidence that shows its establishment from the Book nor the Sunnah nor from scholarly consensus (ijmāʿ), nor by analogy (qiyās). Rather, the Muslims agreed that it did not exist in the era of the best generations, nor those who came after them, nor those who came after them. No one from the Muslims rejected that it is an innovation." Fatāwā of Ash-Shawkani (2/1087-1088) https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1963646928438034494?s=46
