The Salaf

al-Qalshaanee: 

as-Salaf as-Saalih (the pious predecessors) are the first generation (and the other two who came after) who were well grounded in knowledge. Those who followed the guidance of the Prophet, safeguarding his Sunnah. 

Allaah selected them to become companions of His Prophet, and chose them to aid this religion, they struggled for the sake of Allaah in its truest sense and never tired in advising the Muslim Ummah, sacrificing themselves in order to please Allaah. 

And Allaah praised them in His book:  

مُّحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاء عَلَى الْكُفَّارِ رُحَمَاء بَيْنَهُمْ 

Muhammad is the Messenger of Allaah, and those who are with him (his companions) are firm against the non believers (yet) merciful amongst each other. [al-Fat-h v. 29] 

And His statement: 

 لِلْفُقَرَاء الْمُهَاجِرِينَ الَّذِينَ أُخْرِجُوا مِن دِيارِهِمْ وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانًا وَيَنصُرُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ الصَّادِقُونَ  

For the poor emigrants who were expelled from their homes and their properties, seeking bounty from Allaah and [His] approval and supporting Allaah and His Messenger, [there is also a share]. Those are the truthful. [al-Hashr v. 8] 

And Allaah mentioned the Muhajireen and the Ansaar in those verses (and the following ones) praising those who came after them and showing that His pleasure lies in following their footsteps. 

Similarly He warned against a severe punishment against those who go against their way (the way of the companions) Allaah said: 

وَمَن يُشَاقِقِ الرَّسُولَ مِن بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُ الْهُدَى وَيَتَّبِعْ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ نُوَلِّهِ مَا تَوَلَّى وَنُصْلِهِ جَهَنَّمَ وَسَاءتْ مَصِيرًا

And whoever opposes the Messenger after guidance has become clear to him, and follows other than the way of the believers – We will make him responsible for his choice and drive him into Hell, and evil it is as a destination.  [an-Nisaa v. 115] 

So it is upon us to follow them with regards to what they taught us about the religion. And we practise Islaam the way they practised it whilst making du’aa for them as Allaah commanded us: 

وَالَّذِينَ جَاؤُوا مِن بَعْدِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلِإِخْوَانِنَا الَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِالْإِيمَانِ وَلَا تَجْعَلْ فِي قُلُوبِنَا غِلًّا لِّلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ رَؤُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ  

As for those who came after them, they say, O our Lord forgive us our sins and (the sins of) our brothers who preceded us in faith, and do not place in our hearts any resentment towards those who have believed, our Lord, verily You are Kind and Merciful. [al-Hashr v. 10]

Gems of Madeenah

So I try to make the entries on the website knowledge orientated, however from time to time I give brothers and sisters insight into the life here in Madeenah, those rare moments that you'll treasure for a life time. One of the strangest things that one encounters here in Madeenah (even Makkah) is that people are so fluent in almost all languages? Like the taxi drivers, the money exchange clerks etc they are all fluent in so many different languages you'd be amazed. Just the other day I went to exchange some money by the haram and as I stood in the line I saw the people in front of me all talking in their own languages, you have to keep in mind that most of these people are poor people from far away countries so chances that they'll learn arabic are very slim. And I saw one man shouting in turkish at the clerk behind the desk who clearly was saudi yet he was talking back in turkish to him and on his right side another haaji from indonesia shouted out in their language and the clerk just turned his head and started conversating with this man in his own language. This carried on and on, every new person who came, this man seemed to know their language, I thought this is ridicules! Even if I made up a new language on the spot I felt like this man would be able to keep up a conversation with me! I mean I speak four languages and even I was impressed with this man (maashAllaah tabaarakAllaah). And then it was my turn and he looked at me and smiled "Ahlan wa Sahlan..."

Random Fatwa

Reading Surah Faatiha twice?

Question: What is the ruling for the person who repeats the recitation of Surah Faatiha? Meaning when he finishes it once, he recites it once again? Answer: It is not allowed to knowingly repeat Surah Faatiha, since this has not be reported from the Prophet.  And he said;

Whoever introduces anything new into our affair (i.e. Islaam) that which is not from it, then it will be rejected. [Bukhaaree]

However the Salaah is still correct, and such a person should be given sincere advice (to stop it) so that he does not repeat this practise. [Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa-imah 276/8]
