Reverence For The Salah By Shaykh Abdur Razzaq ibn Abdul Muhsin Al-Abaad al-Badr ISBN: 9781684182404 Author: Shaykh Abdur-Razzaq Ibn Abdul-Muhsin al-Abbad al-Badr Book Binding: Paperback Pages 196 Size: 6 x 9 inch Publication year: 2020 Description About This Book: Shaykh Abdur Razzaq ibn Abdul Muhsin Al-Abaad al-Badr's book "Reverence for the Salah" is profound and enlightening. The acclaimed scholar digs deeply into the significance of Salah (Islamic prayer) and the value of establishing sincere reverence and dedication to this act of worship in this excellent work. Shaykh Abdur Razzaq Al-Badr gives excellent insights on how to achieve Khushu' (humility and attentiveness) in Salah throughout the pages of this book. He dives into the spiritual components of prayer, advising readers on how to strengthen their relationship with Allah through each prayer and transform it into a transformational and gratifying experience. The Ṣalāh is the most crucial affair in a Muslim's life. To preserve one's religion, one has to observe it consistently; otherwise, one would be negligent of the Ṣalāh, let alone other acts of worship. It is the pillar of Islām, as it is soundly reported from the Prophet (May Allah elevate his rank & grant him peace). At the same time, the remaining deeds serve as the axis of support. Similarly, a tent without a pillar is useless. The Ṣalāh is the criterion for accepting all other deeds; if it is rejected [by Allāh], all other deeds will be rejected. It is the first obligation ever in Islām and the last act of worship to wither. So, if one is negligent to the first and the last thing in Islām, then one will lose everything in-between. Inadequate observance of the Ṣalāh that lacks adherence to its prescribed form in the manner performed by the Messenger of Allāh (May Allah elevate his rank & grant him peace) will derail one's religion. It will invalidate all deeds, cause misconduct in one's religious and worldly affairs.

Knowledge And Its Effects On Purifying Souls By Shaykh Abdur Razzaq ISBN: 9781640078895 From the book: When one handles this significantly elaborate topic of soul purification and its aspects in light of verses and authentic aḥādīth, one deduces solid principles and comprehensive foundational rules that pave the way to purifying souls. The most significant principle in this respect is that soul purification is a divine blessing. Allāh only sanctifies whom He wills. Allāh, the Almighty, says, "Have you not seen those who claim sanctity for themselves? Nay, but Allāh sanctifies whom He pleases." [Sūrah An-Nisā' 4:49] Allāh says, "And had it not been for the Grace of Allāh and His Mercy on you, not one of you would ever have been pure from sins. But Allāh purifies (guides to Islām) whom He wills, and Allāh is All-Hearer, All-Knower." [Sūrah An-Nūr 24:21] Allāh also says, "They regard as a favor upon you (O Muḥammad) that they have embraced Islām. Say: 'Count not your Islām as a favor to me. Nay, but Allāh has conferred a favor upon you, that He has guided you to the Faith if you indeed are true.'" [Sūrah Al-Hujurāt 49:17]

Khushu In The Prayer Al-Khushuʿ in Ṣalāh: Presence of the heart therein before Allāh the Exalted in love and honor, fearing His punishment. While desiring the reward of the Ṣalāh to acquire a tranquil heart. Then one will have a peaceful soul and clear, balanced movements. So he focuses on all thoughts and actions as well as what's mentioned in Ṣalāh from the beginning until the end so as to make sure distracting thoughts and whims are not in the way. Thus khushuʿ is the spirit of the Ṣalāh and the main point in it. Alas, any Ṣalāh without khushuʿ is like a body without a soul in it.

Helpful Guidelines In Enduring People's Harm By Ibn Taymiyyah ISBN: 9781944248697 Shaykh Abdur Razzaaq bin Abdul Muhsin al-Badr, may Allah preserve him, explains a splendid treatise of Shaykh-ul Taymiyyah (May Allah have mercy upon him) concerning the issue of enduring people's harm. A small excerpt from the book: Indeed, patience is one of the greatest status in the religion and occupies one of its loftiest classes. Allāh mentions it in numerous places throughout His Book. Imām Ahmad (may Allah have mercy upon him) said about it, "Allāh mentions patience in the Noble Qur'ān more than ninety times."[1] This statement (of Imām Ahmad) shows in a clear fashion the great and prestigious status of Patience; in addition to the servants' dire need to practice if in both performing acts of obedience and abandoning acts of disobedience; patience is also required during destined trials to avoid impatience and displeasure. The servant is in need of patience. Patience accompanies the Muslim in all of his circumstances; it is essential in performing acts of obedience, avoiding acts of disobedience, and receiving trials with what pleases Allāh. So how much in need is the Muslim (of this)! Rather, he is in more severe need to adorn himself with patience in all of his circumstances! Allāh mentions Patience in numerous places throughout the Qur'ān. It comes in the form of a command; it comes in the form of a prohibition (i.e., impatience); It comes in the form of a praise to those who have. The Qur'ān mentions what Allāh has prepared for them of an abundant reward and beautiful abode. Unlimited glad tidings are promised to those who have patience. Allāh informs (us) that He loves them, and that He gives them aid, support, and protection; Patience is mentioned in different shapes/forms elsewhere in the Book of Allāh. All of this attest to the great status of Patience; its lofty station, and (our) urgent need for it.

Fundamentals Of Eemaan By Shaykh Abdul Azeez Bin Abdullah Bin Baaz ISBN: 9781631733185 The Qur'aan has clarified these fundamentals ‎within many verses; likewise, our Prophet, ‎‎(sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam), has clarified ‎them within the authentic Sunnah. They are six ‎fundamentals, and they are the fundamentals of ‎Eemaan. They are the fundamentals of the ‎religion; for Eemaan is the entire religion, and it ‎is Islaam and the guidance. It is righteousness ‎and piety. It is that with which Allaah sent the ‎Messenger, (sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam), from ‎beneficial knowledge and righteous actions. All ‎of it is referred to as Eemaan. These six ‎fundamentals of our religion have been clarified ‎by the Mighty Book within various places and ‎the trustworthy Messenger of Allaah (sallallahu ‎‎'alayhi wa sallam) clarified them within the ‎Ahadeeth. From that which has come within the ‎Book of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, is His ‎statement:‎ ‎ "It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness) ‎that you turn your faces towards east and ‎‎(or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the ‎quality of) the one who believes in Allaah, ‎the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the ‎Prophets." ‎ ‎[Soorah Al-Baqarah 2:177]‎ Allaah, Glorified and Exalted be He, clarified ‎here five of the fundamentals of Eemaan. They ‎are:‎ Eemaan in Allaah The Last Day The Angels The Book The Prophets The religion revolves around these five ‎fundamentals, inwardly and outwardly. Allaah, ‎the Majestic and High, has said:‎ ‎ "The Messenger (Muhammad) believes in ‎what has been sent down to him from his ‎Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one ‎believes in Allaah, His Angels, His Books, ‎and His Messengers. They say, "We make ‎no distinction between one another of ‎His Messengers." ‎ ‎[Soorah Al-Baqarah 2:285]‎

Explantion Of Riyaad Saliheen,The Chapter On Hastening Towards Good Deeds By Shaykh Muhammad Bin Saleh Al-Uthaymeen ISBN: 9781467585842 Shaykh Muhammad Bin Saleh al-'Uthaymeen, may Allaah have mercy upon him, explains the chapter on "hastening towards good deeds"..... "Hastening towards good deeds and urging whoever pursues good deeds to be steadfast, without hesitation." This title makes two points: Firstly: Hastening and taking the initiative to do good deeds. Secondly: If one is determined to do good, one should proceed without hesitation. The first point is initiative, which opposes laziness and apathy. The person who is lazy and apathetic has missed many good deeds. The Prophet Muhammad said, ا"The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allaah than the weak believer, although both are good. Strive to do that which will benefit you and seek the help of Allaah, and do not feel helpless." One should hasten to do good deeds as soon as he is told about them, such as prayer, charity, fasting, pilgrimage, obedience to parents, maintaining ties of kinship and so on. One should hasten to perform these good deeds because one does not know whether one will lose the ability to do these deeds later due to death, sickness, or something else if the present opportunity is missed. The Messenger of Allaah said, "Whoever intends to perform Hajj, let him hasten to do so, for he may fall sick, lose his mount, or be faced with some need. Something may appear (suddenly) and prevent the individual from proceeding to do good deed. Hence, one should hasten to do good deeds and shun laziness.
