2021-04-09 16:22:18 Whoever says to someone else: “make duʿāʾ for us” with the intention that the person being asked would benefit by making duʿāʾ, and that the person making the request would also benefit due to the action of the one being requested - just as he would benefit by requesting someone else to do any of the virtuous deeds, then this person is following the example of the Prophet ﷺ,
وَمَنْ قَالَ لِغَيْرِهِ مِنْ النَّاسِ: اُدْعُ لِي - أَوْ لَنَا - وَقَصَدَ أَنْ يَنْتَفِعَ ذَلِكَ الْمَأْمُورُ بِالدُّعَاءِ وَيَنْتَفِعَ هُوَ أَيْضًا بِأَمْرِهِ وَيَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ الْمَأْمُورُ بِهِ كَمَا يَأْمُرُهُ بِسَائِرِ فِعْلِ الْخَيْرِ فَهُوَ مُقْتَدٍ بِالنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُؤْتَمٌّ بِهِ

This is not considered to be from the questions that are not preferred.
لَيْسَ هَذَا مِنْ السُّؤَالِ الْمَرْجُوحِ.

As for the one whose only intention (by his request) is that he himself can attain his need, without intending to benefit the one whom he is making the request of, then this person is not amongst those who have taken the Messenger ﷺ as an example in this issue.
وَأَمَّا إنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَقْصُودُهُ إلَّا طَلَبَ حَاجَتِهِ لَمْ يَقْصِدْ نَفْعَ ذَلِكَ وَالْإِحْسَانَ إلَيْهِ فَهَذَا لَيْسَ مِنْ الْمُقْتَدِينَ بِالرَّسُولِ الْمُؤْتَمِّينَ بِهِ فِي ذَلِكَ

Rather this type of request is not preferred, forsaking it and turning to Allah in need and asking Him is better than turning to the creation in need and asking them.
بَلْ هَذَا هُوَ مِنْ السُّؤَالِ الْمَرْجُوحِ الَّذِي تَرْكُهُ إلَى الرَّغْبَةِ إلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ الرَّغْبَةِ إلَى الْمَخْلُوقِ وَسُؤَالِهِ.

And all of this is from the category of asking the living and is permissible and legislated.
وَهَذَا كُلُّهُ مِنْ سُؤَالِ الْأَحْيَاءِ السُّؤَالَ الْجَائِزَ الْمَشْرُوعَ.

2021-04-08 16:29:47 And likewise, no one from the People of Islām disputed that it is not permitted for anyone to marry more than four women.
وَأَيْضًا -: فَلَمْ يَخْتَلِفْ فِي أَنَّهُ لَا يَحِلُّ لِأَحَدٍ زَوَاجُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَرْبَعِ نِسْوَةٍ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْإِسْلَامِ،

And that was contradicted by a group of al-Rawāfiḍ (ie: Shīʿah), for whom the covenant (ie: ruling) of Islām is not confirmed.
وَخَالَفَ فِي ذَلِكَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ الرَّوَافِضِ لَا يَصِحُّ لَهُمْ عَقْدُ الْإِسْلَامِ.

2021-04-08 16:29:05 As for remaining silent (unrestrictedly during Iʿtikāf) then this is not from the legislation of Islām.

فأما التزام الصمت فليس من شريعة الإسلام

2021-04-07 14:52:22 Taking the statements of a specific man placing them on the level of the text of the Legislator to where the statements of others are not looked at, rather, the text of the Legislator (is not looked at), except when it agrees with his statement?
اتِّخَاذِ أَقْوَالِ رَجُلٍ بِعَيْنِهِ بِمَنْزِلَةِ نُصُوصِ الشَّارِعِ لَا يُلْتَفَتُ إلَى قَوْلِ مَنْ سِوَاهُ بَلْ وَلَا إلَى نُصُوصِ الشَّارِعِ إلَّا إذَا وَافَقَتْ نُصُوصَ قَوْلِهِ؟،

By Allah, this is what the ummah has united upon being ḥarām in the religion of Allah.
فَهَذَا وَاَللَّهِ هُوَ الَّذِي أَجْمَعَتْ الْأُمَّةُ عَلَى أَنَّهُ مُحَرَّمٌ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ،

This has not appeared amongst the ummah except after the passing of the virtuous generations.
وَلَمْ يَظْهَرْ فِي الْأُمَّةِ إلَّا بَعْدَ انْقِرَاضِ الْقُرُونِ الْفَاضِلَةِ.

2021-04-06 16:31:46 He (ie: Dāwūd ʿalayhi salām) said: “O Lord, show me the hidden blessings upon me.”
قَالَ يَا رَبِّ فَأَرِنِي أَخْفَى نِعَمِكَ عَلَيَّ

Allah said: “O Dāwūd, breathe.”
قَالَ يَا دَاوُدُ تَنَفَّسْ

So Dāwūd took a breath.
فَتَنَفَّسَ دَاوُدُ

Allah the Exalted said: “Who counts these blessings in each day and night?”
فَقَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مَنْ يُحْصِي هَذِهِ النِّعْمَةَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ.

2021-04-05 16:22:43 Ibn Juraij reported: I came to ʿAṭāʾ (b. Abī Rabāḥ) seeking to study ḥadīth with him and ʿAbd Allah b. ʿUbayd b. ʿUmayr was with him.
أَخْبَرَنَا محمد بن الحسين بن الفضل القطان، قال: أَخْبَرَنَا عبد الله بن جعفر بن درستويه، قال: حَدَّثَنَا يعقوب بن سفيان، قال: حَدَّثَنِي محمد بن عبد الرحيم، قال: قال علي، يعني ابن المديني، قال: حدثنَا عبد الوهاب بن همام أخو عبد الرزاق، عن ابن جريج، قال: أتيت عطاء وأنا أريد هذا الشأن، وعنده عبد الله بن عبيد بن عمير،

ʿAbd Allah b. ʿUbayd asked me: “Have you read (ie: memorized) the Qurʾān?”
فقال لي عبد الله بن عبيد: قرأت القرآن؟

I said: “No.”
قلت: لا،

He said “Go and memorize the Qurʾān and then seek this knowledge.”
قال: فاذهب فاقرأ القرآن ثم اطلب العلم،

So I went and disappeared for a time until I memorized the Qurʾān and then came back to ʿAṭāʾ and ʿAbd Allah b. ʿUbayd was with him.
قال: فذهبت فغبرت زمانا حتى قرأت القرآن، ثم جئت إلى عطاء وعنده عبد الله بن عبيد،

He (ie: ʿAbd Allah) asked “Did you learn (ie: memorize) the Qurʾān?”
فقال: تعلمت القرآن، أو قرأت القرآن؟

I said “Yes.”
قلت: نعم،

He asked: “Did you study and learn the science of inheritance?”
قال: تعلمت الفريضة؟

I said “No.”
قلت: لا،

He said: “Learn inheritance and then seek this knowledge.”
قال: فتعلم الفريضة ثم اطلب العلم،

So I studied inheritance and then came back.
قال: فطلبت الفريضة ثم جئت.

He asked “Did you study inheritance?”
فقال: تعلمت الفريضة؟

I said: “Yes.”
قلت: نعم،

He said “Now you can seek this knowledge.”
قال: الآن فاطلب العلم،

I (ie: Ibn Jurayj) sought knowledge with ʿAṭāʾ for seventeen consecutive years.
قال: فلزمت عطاء سبع عشرة سنة

2021-04-04 17:32:09 Al-Musayyib b. Wāḍiḥ said: If Ibn Mubārak may Allah have mercy upon him, saw the children of Aṣḥāb (ie: the students of) al-Ḥadīth with pens in their hands he would draw them close and say: These are the seedlings of the religion. We were told that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Allah continues to plant seedlings in this religion that He supports it with, they are youngsters amongst you today, but they may be the kibār (major scholars or elders) after you.”

أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ هَمَّامٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْمُسَيَّبَ بْنَ وَاضِحٍ، بَتَلِّ مَنْسَ، يَقُولُ: كَانَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ، إِذَا رَأَى صِبْيَانَ أَصْحَابِ الْحَدِيثِ، وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمُ الْمَحَابِرُ، يُقَرِّبُهُمْ، وَيَقُولُ: هَؤُلَاءِ غَرْسُ الدِّينِ، أُخْبِرْنَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا يَزَالُ اللَّهُ يَغْرِسُ فِي هَذَا الدِّينِ غَرْسًا يَشُدُّ الدِّينَ بِهِمْ. هُمُ الْيَوْمَ أَصَاغِرُكُمْ، وَيُوشِكُ أَنْ يَكُونُوا كِبَارًا مِنْ بَعْدِكُمْ»

2021-04-03 17:47:10 Yūsuf b. Asbāṭ reported that Sufyān al-Thawrī said: “If you love a person for the sake of Allah after that he (ie: the person you love) innovates an innovation into Islām and you did not get angry upon him then you did not (truly) love him for the sake of Allah.”

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، نَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ، نَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ خُبَيْقٍ،وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ الْأَرْغِيَانِيُّ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ خُبَيْقٍ، وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ الْأَرْغِيَانِيُّ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ خُبَيْقٍ، سَمِعْتُ يُوسُفَ بْنَ أَسْبَاطَ، سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيَّ، يَقُولُ: " إِذَا أَحَبَّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِي اللهِ، ثُمَّ أَحْدَثَ حَدَثًا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَلَمْ يُبْغِضْهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يُحِبَّهُ فِي اللهِ " لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الْأَرْغِيَانِيِّ

2021-04-03 07:01:51 A pious person was asked: “How do you keep a secret?”
وقيل لبعض الأدباء كيف حفظك السرّ

He replied: “I become its grave.”
قال: أنا قبره
