Between Hadith and Philosophy

They asked: Clarify for us the real difference between ḥadīth and philosophy. I replied: Success from your Lord has drawn close to you if you are indeed concerned with this question. It is a dangerous but worthy quest…

The Book is Two Books

Mawlana Muhammad Deedat

How Should You Write an Article?

This post has 2 parts to it. First part: What can be considered to be a well-written Article? The answer to that is: 1) The topic of the essay should be clearly and completely defined in your mind and have a specific description.

Who Has Taught You Generosity?

قالوا: ما معنى السماحة؟ قلت: معناه السهولة والدماثة، والأريحية والكرم، وهي خلق في الإنسان أصيل نبيل، يجعل حامله مأنوسًا ميسِّرا للناس أمورهم مع احترام لهم وبذل المعروف لهم، والإنسانُ السمحُ هو الطيب اللين الرقيق، والجواد الفياح، حسن الظن بالورى،

Who Has Taught You Kindness?

قلت: الرفق هو لين الجانب في القول والفعل، والمداراة والتلطف في التعامل، وهو أخو التأني والتثبت، وضده الخرق والعنف، والرفق له صفة سيولة الماء ورقته، يدخل في النفوس مرحَّبًا به ومحتفًى، وبدون عنف أو تقريع، والرفق أيمن نهجا، والعنف أشأم منحى، والرفق

Who Has Taught You Perception?

قلت: النظر هو القياس، وهو الترتيب والترابط بين شيئين أو أمرين، بين معلوم ومجهول، أو بين مفهوم وشبه مفهوم، والنظر الصحيح هو الناشئ من ترتيب صحيح وترابط دقيق بين القضايا

Who Has Taught You the Remembrance of Allah?

قالوا: نسمعك دائمًا تُذكِّرنا بربِّنا عز وجل مسبِّحا له وحامدا، ولائذا به مستغيثا، وترغِّبنا في حبه وطاعته، والعبادة والتأله محرِّضًا إيانا ومشوِّقًا، فكيف نربِّي أنفسنا على هذه الصلة بالله تعالى وننشئها عليها إنشاءًا؟

The Meaning of Supplication

يدعو الجائع أن يطعمه الله تعالى فلا ينزل عليه طعام من السماء، ويدعو الأعزب أن يهبه الله ولدا فلا يظفر بمراده، وكذلك يدعو الداعي ويدعو فلا تتحقق أمانيه، فيظن أن الدعاء أوهن الوسائل، وأوهى الأسباب، وقد رأينا الكفار والمشركين يسخرون من الدعاء، وضعاف الإيمان يدخل قلوبهم الريب، وكثير من المسلمين لا يلجأون إلى الدعاء إلا عادة ورسمًا، وليس هناك إلا عدد قليل ممن يعلم معنى الدعاء فيدعو الله تعالى دعاء المؤمن بالله المتوكل عليه الملتجئ إليه. فما هو معنى الدعاء إذن؟

Usul al-Hadith According to the Hanafi Madhhab

They asked: We have learned from you ḥadīth and its principles in exhaustive detail. You have laid out for us its rules and principles in an easy manner and detailed for us the differences of the trustworthy scholars and proficient experts…
