Your fall isn't your death. Don't lose roots and you shall find the life

And being able to miss or acknowledge the distance are great blessings which not all of us have, and we need to strive harder.

"What's the worst kind of missing?" "Feeling distant from ﷲ ". #KnowYourRabb #KnowYourPurpose

No enemy of the Muslims is able to advance in hurting the Muslims except with the help and aid of the hypocrites amongst us!

I asked a student of knowledge (of Shaykh Ahmad Jibril) this, his reply: “Wa Aleykum Salaam wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakathu If a person is serious and willing to travel abroad to study in Ksa/Khaleej best Nasheeha would be to put your head down serious and take a year or two to learn intensive Arabic, after that the world is your oyster, there dozens upon dozens of videos and audios of Rabbani Mashaykh on EVERY Shari subject available, not to mention the thousands of books of classical and contemporary Uleema and then on top of the there are a few beneficial Mashaykh who are available in the Arab to contact for Nasheeha in studies and guidance in becoming a Talab Al-Ilim Applying to these Tawagheet supported universities is dangerous for a persons Aqeedah and Manhaj, unless it is to study the Arabic language and Hifz Quran etc Wallahu ta'alaa Alaam”

Posts like this highlight the overall Jahl amongst the Ummah with regard to the Mas’alah of الأسماء والأحكام — that, or additional attention is warranted to make clear the following necessary distinction. The “preventatives” of applying the LABEL of Kafir on someone performing Kufr Bawāh, generally do not apply when the Kufr is re: مسائل ظاهرة — rather it only applies for مسائل خفية. On the flip side, the preventatives of applying the HUKM of Takfir, apply on matters of Kufr re: مسائل ظاهرة, and that’s to check if the person knows the reality of his action/statement, if he was drunk, insane, etc — and these “preventatives” are enacted at the time of Istitābah by the Qadi. Often times, people conflate between these two, and apply the preventatives of مسائل خفية, and apply them on مسائل ظاهرة. The mere fact that this person highlights the Kufr to be Kufr Bawāh [with whom we have Burhān (proof) from Allah], necessitates the matter is with respect to مسائل ظاهرة, since by necessity if the proof is clear and known to the masses, it is not considered from مسائل الخفية. He is correct, in that the Kufr of the modern day Tawagheet is indeed Kufr Bawāh, and once the reality is known of their actions/statements, then the one who fails to give the LABEL of a Kafir to these Tawagheet, has not fulfilled a condition of their Shahādah — of which is Al-Kufr Bi-Taghūt. Insha’Allah this person can make this necessary clarification, or perhaps use more precise language if this is what he intended in the first place. https://twitter.com/ProjectGuiding/status/1784810415509352898

Just like our father Adam عليه السلام was tempted by Iblees to eat fruit from the tree in Jannah which Allah had clearly made haram for him we are also eating fruits from the trees of this Dunya which Allah has clearly made haram/kufr. Iblees will never come to us and say, let's commit kufr. He will make it appear good/beneficial for you or even Islam. He will make it seem like it is halal. He will say, your intentions are good that is all that matters. Then unlike Adam عليه السلام we don't refrain from it. We, like stubborn Iblees, justify ourselves and say we had good intentions etc. Adam عليه السلام had good intentions too. He didn't want to rebel against Allah yet Allah didn't accept that excuse. He repented for so long for what apparently seems a small sin/disobedience. So who are we? We are sons of Adam عليه السلام but we are arrogant like Iblees. Iblees was asked to make Sujood to Adam عليه السلام but he arrogantly refused and argued against Allah's command to make the Sujood. Today we do the same. We choose haram/kufr over halal because we want easy ways to get something. We don't want any hardships. We choose haram/kufr on easy path over halal on difficult path. May Allah grant us patience upon hardships that come our way on halal path.

👆 Take for example these people who claim they will bring Shari’ah of Allah through elections. Jihad is halal path to establish Shari’ah of Allah. The elections are haram path. But they find Jihad is difficult and elections are easy so they take haram path and leave halal path. Then they say, they have good intentions.

We are in times where people want concessions to commit kufr. Sahabah would seek means to stay far away from haram even under tortures and other forms of oppression. We seek means and excuses to commit kufr and say, our intentions are good.
