To those who refute,

I appreciate all those who try to "warn" others of fulan and fulan. Please do not involve me in these things as I do not want to be part of the slandering and backbiting! These individuals as far as I know, and ALLAH KNOWS, are upon the correct Aqeedah. As I mentioned in my latest post you innovator! I do NOT want to partake in this war of "he said, she said, he is not a salafi , she is not a salafi" ...at the end of the day Allah Knows best. And if their Aqeedah is sound then I will continue to listen to them DESPITE their differences of opinions in certain matters. Please dear sisters, reflect upon this post and my previous post. You will be held accountable for your slandering and backbiting and spreading false rumours and lies. Remember, no human being is free from mistakes, and you do not know whether they repented or not, so please keep busy with increasing your knowledge and beautifying your character and manners and do not busy yourself with things that are out of your knowledge. BarakAllahu Feekum.

Al-Fawzaan: Yes, I advise you to fear Allaah, and to continue pursuing knowledge, doing so eagerly, and to act according to what Allaah has taught you, and to call to Allaah عز وجل, and to teach the people what you’ve learnt—and to leave squabbling, that which has taken place amongst the students of knowledge, hating [one another], cursing, setting people against each other, until they split the ummah and split the students of knowledge, [saying]: ‘Beware of so and so! Don’t sit with so and so! Don’t read to so and so!’—this is not allowed.

If so and so has a mistake, advise him one on one, as for you spreading it amongst the people and warning against him whilst he is a scholar or a student of knowledge or a righteous person who has made a mistake [then no], such a mistake does not necessitate that it be spread, “Lo! Those who love that slander be spread concerning those who believe, theirs will be a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter. Allaah knoweth and ye know not.” [Nur 24:19]

What is obligatory is to sincerely advise one another, what is obligatory is to love one another, especially the students of knowledge, especially the scholars, to respect the scholars, and not to recommend against some of them, and warn against them. This is the cause of many evils, the cause of fighting and hatred, the cause of fitnah—steer clear of these things.

May Allaah reward you all with good.

Be as Allaah wanted you to be: “And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me.” [Mu’minun 23:52] “And be not like the ones who became divided and differed after the clear proofs had come to them. For such there is an awful doom.” [Aali-Imran 3:105]

Aspire to bring about harmony. Seek to sincerely advise one another. Desire to co-operate in righteousness and piety.

Be on your guard against those things which split the Muslims—especially in this day and age. The Muslims are in need of unity, in need of eliminating discord amongst themselves, in need of cooperating in righteousness and piety. Don’t become a source of support for the enemy in breaking up the Muslims and disuniting them.

If disunity occurs between the scholars and the students of knowledge, who’s left for theUmmah?

The evil/damage [of such a predicament] isn’t on the masses, it comes back on the students of knowledge, those who reconcile between people, those who teach the people.

Leave these things, this wrangling, these altercations, these blameworthy characteristics.

“And do not spy or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead?” [Hujuraat 49:12] “And obey not every worthless habitual oath-monger. Hinderer of good, transgressing, sinful.” [Al-Qalam 68:10-12]

Don’t obey these people, such that you will end up being an aid to the Devil in splitting the Ummah and weakening it.

Sincerely advise the one you find a flaw in—if [indeed] it is established [that he really did make it in the first place!]

Don’t believe rumours.

“O you who have believed! If there comes to you a disobedient one with information, verify it, lest you harm a people out of ignorance and afterwards become regretful over what you have done.” [Hujuraat 49:6]

“O you who have believed! When you go forth in the cause of Allaah, investigate and do not say to one who gives you [a greeting of] peace, ‘You are not a believer.’” [Nisaa 4:94]

Allaah جل وعلا encouraged the Muslims to unite, and for them to be united in their word, and to cooperate and sincerely advise one another.

We’re not saying leave the mistake, no. Correct the mistake, we say correct the mistake, don’t leave the mistake, but correct it with legislated means.

May Allaah give all the success to do that which He loves and is pleased with.

وصلى الله على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وأصحابه أجمعين
