Imām as-Sa'di, rahimahullāh, said: "Whoever is firm in this world upon the straight path, Allah will grant him firmness at the time of his death and in his grave, and he will be given the glad tidings of success and bliss. And whoever is blind in this world, turning away from Allah, then he will inevitably face that which his own hands have earned.” [Al-Fawākih al-Shahiyah 93.] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1960073642144038926?s=4

‎Imām adh-Dhahabi, rahimahullāh, said: ‎ "There used to gather in the gathering of Aḥmad Ibn Ḥanbāl رحمه الله, about five thousand or more; around five hundred [would be] writing, and the rest were learning from him good manners and conduct.” ‎[Siyar A'lām an-Nubalā (2/947)] ‎⁦ https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1958548971921477826?s=46

"Anyone who hears [the long hadith of intercession] should strengthen his fear; For verily Adam, Nūh, Ibrahīm, Mūsa, and Isse—peace be upon all of them, Despite their noble rank and their lofty status, Forgot every good deed they had with them and remembered a single sin that had already been forgiven of theirs. So what then should be expected of others—those whose lives passed with sins?” [Ibn Hubayrah, al-Ifṣāḥ, 5/146] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1957530447925375076?s=46

‎Al-Marwadhi said: ‎“A man sneezed in the presence of Abu 'Abdullāh Imām Ahmad and did not praise Allāh; he waited for him (i.e., the man) to praise Allah so he can do Tashmeet (seeking Allāh's Mercy for the one who sneezes - saying يرحمك الله) for him. When he wanted to get up Abu 'Abdullāh said to him, What do you say if you sneeze? He said “I say Alhamdulilllāh", Abu 'Abdullāh said to him “May Allah have mercy on you.” ‎[al-Ādāb ash-Shar'iyyah (328/2)] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1956064387053375603?s=46

Al-Allamah Bakr Abu Zayd, rahimahu’Allah, mentions that dropping the word "Ibn" between two names is a foreign method, invented and not known to the Arabs, and their tongue does not affirm it. Has the world ever heard of anyone who mentions the lineage of the Prophet ﷺ and says "Mohamed Abdullah"? Therefore, why do we abandon following this example, which is a more guided path and a more upright course? [Tasmiyat al-Mawlūd, p. 7] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1955656670597566835?s=46

قال الحسن البصري : أَدْرَكْتُ أَقْوَامًا يَبْذُلُونَ أَوْرَاقَهُمْ ( أي أموالهم ). وَيَخْزُنُونَ أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ . ثُمَّ أَدْرَكْتُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ أَقْوَامًا خَزَّنُوا أَوْرَاقَهُمْ، وَأَرْسَلُوا أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ . 📚 مصنف ابن أبي شيبة 189/7 ] Al-Ḥasan Al-Baṣrī raḥimahullāh said: “I met a people who would give freely of their wealth and keep guard over their tongues. Then I met, after them, people who hoarded their wealth and let loose their tongues.” 📚 Muṣannaf Ibn Abī Shaybah 7/189 https://t.me/Gardensofknowledge

Ibn Abī Mulaykah said: “A man asked Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) about a day whose measure was a thousand years.” Ibn Abbas said: “Then what about a day whose measure was fifty thousand years?” The man said: “I only asked you so that you would inform me.” Ibn Abbas said: “They are two days that Allah mentioned in His Book; Allah knows best about them.” He disliked to say about the Book of God what he did not know.

Sufyān ath-Thawri, rahimahu’Allah, said: Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq said to him: "If that which you love comes to you, then increase in praise (al-ḥamd). And if that which you dislike comes to you, then increase in saying: 'La Hawla wa la Quwwata illa billah' (There is neither might nor power except with Allah). And if you find provision slow in coming, then increase in seeking forgiveness (al-istighfār)." Sufyān said: "So I benefited from this admonition."

Sheikh Ibn al-'Uthaymeen, rahimahullāh, was asked, “Is a human being free to choose (mukhayyir) or compelled (musayyar)?” He replied: “When you sent us this question, did anyone force you, or did you do it by your own choice? If it was by your own choice, then likewise all your actions are by choice. However, I say this: When a person chooses something and does it, we then know that Allah, the Exalted, had willed it.” [A phone question to Ibn ‘Uthaymeen – 1/62] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1953816456824488382?

Our Lord, indeed You are Kind and Merciful.” [59:10] Imam ash-Shawkānī rahimahullāh said: “Whoever does not seek forgiveness for the Companions in general, and does not ask Allah’s pleasure for them, has indeed opposed what Allah has commanded him with in this verse. And if he finds in his heart resentment toward them, then he has been afflicted by a whisper from Shayṭān.” [Fatḥ al-Qadīr 5/202]

A man asked Imām Mālik rahimahu’Allah about someone who said to another: “O donkey.” He said: “He is lashed.” [The man] said: “And if he says to him: ‘O horse’?” He said: “You are lashed! And have you ever heard anyone say to another: ‘O horse’?!” [Tartīb al-Madārik 1/238.] https://x.com/yassinyd/status/1953192528829915155?s=46
