Maktabah Al-Imām Al-Ghazālī

Background Iran’s relationship with the Palestinian cause is one of the most controversial issues in the Arab and regional sphere, and the dispute always revolves around the extent to which the Palestinian cause has benefited from Iran, although there is another issue worth addressing: how has Iran benefited from the Palestinian cause? The Iranian position during the Shah’s era was formal and symbolic. Although the Shah adopted an official position biased towards the Arabs in the conflict with the Israeli entity, it did not go beyond symbolism to direct support. Iranian-Shia Revolution When the Iranian Khomeini revolution broke out in 1979, the Arab region was experiencing profound transformations that culminated in the signing of the peace treaty with the Israeli entity, the decline of Arab nationalist discourse, and the increasing divisions among Arab states. In light of this political vacuum, Khomeini’s Iran found in the Palestinian issue a rare opportunity to present itself as the ...

  ibn al-Jawzi rahimahullah wrote in his great history, Al-Muntazam,  'They [fanatic Shi'is] narrate certain things, then say, "This, only the Family of the Messenger of Allah [sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam] know!" and they say, "This is the outward meaning, but it has a hidden meaning," and "so and so believes what we believe, but does not show it!"...But you should know that their madh-hab, if outwardly is Rafd, is inwardly Kufr.' [5:115] 'The fanatics among the Rafidis violate the Book of Allah and the Sunnah in openly insulting the Sahabah radiyallahu 'anhum, and holding views that are sheer unbelief (kufr), as well as indecent, permissive rulings.' [8: 38-39] 

George Galloway is currently being promoted in South Africa and by radio stations that refer to themselves as Islamic.  Let us review some of the pro-Shia statements of this controversial person.  We must bear in mind that Galloway was working for the Shia channel PRESS TV too.  Can any Muslim allow a platform to be given to the person who uttered the statements collated below?    1. "_ On the day before Kabul fell to what were then known as the mujahidin, I told Mrs Thatcher in the House of Commons: ‘You have opened the gates to the *barbarians*, and a long, dark night will now descend upon the people of Afghanistan._’” - George Galloway He refers to the founders of the Taliban, those Deobandi students of deen, as 'barbarians'; source: https://highprofiles.info/interview/george-galloway/ 2. _I glorify the Hizbollah national resistance movement, and I glorify the leader of Hizbollah, Sheikh Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah._ George Galloway, 29 July 2006 Socialist Worker...

*Published 50 years ago* By: Shaikh Mustufaa Hamami rahimahullah of Egypt The Messenger of Allah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam said: “The Angels do not enter a home in which there is a dog or a picture.” Imam Nawawi rahimahullah writes in his Sharhul Muslim regarding the above-quoted Hadith: “The Ulama have said that the reason for the non-entry of the Angels in a house wherein there is a picture is the fact that it (picture) is an open sin and in it is the imitation of Allah Ta'ala's creation. Some pictures are images of objects which are being worshipped. The reason Angels do not enter a house where there is a dog is that a dog eats much najaasat (impure things). The Hadith has referred to some dogs as Shaitaan. And Shaitaan is the antithesis of Angels. Dogs have in them a very bad odour as well, and Angels detest bad odours. Keeping dogs is forbidden under Shariah. Therefore, the punishment for keeping dogs is that such a person is deprived of the visits of the Angels, th...

  Ḥujjatul Islām ‘Allamah Khalid Mahmud (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "A major error in the present era regarding ḍa’īf (weak) ḥadīth, which almost everyone is guilty of, is that as soon as they hear a ḍa’īf (weak) ḥadīth, a kind of hatred arises in them, and they begin talking about abandoning it.” While warning about this, he explained with two examples that this behavior is not correct. 1. He said, “I am a weak man, are you listening to me with attention, enthusiasm and love or not?” Students: “Yes.” He replied,  “The first lesson learnt from this point is that do not hate the ḍa’īf (weak), as soon as it comes to the question of a ḥadīth that it is weak, an emotion arises that says leave it, abandon it.  Therefore, spread the word among people that one should not hate the ḍa’īf (weak).” 2. “There is a healthy man, a weak man and a dead man, now tell me, is the weak one closer to the dead or the healthy one?” Students: “He is closer to the healthy one.” 'A...

In Congo, the Muslim population is about 10%; most of them are new converts who have embraced Islam through dreams. Sometimes jamaats go through villages, and a whole village embraces Islam.  Since there are no teachers to teach them the proper Deen after becoming Muslims, they still maintain their old customs. Some Muslims have never seen a copy of the Noble Qur'an in their lives. Many couples live without Nikah.  Such situations can only be experienced when people go in fisabilillah, i.e., in the path of Allah Ta'ala, from village to village.  Recently, a local jamaat from Kinshasa went to a village called Mongala in the equatorial region of Congo, 1100 km from the capital Kinshasa, to tashkeel them to participate in the Ijtima which was held in Kalemie, east of Congo, on 17th, 18th and 19th December 21.  One brother of the village gave the following report: "Thanks to the path of the jamaat, we learned that pork is haraam. Before, we used to think only dead p...

  A woman from an Arab country sent a message to Dr Ahmed Abdullah Al-Omari, the Imam and Khatib of Miqat Masjid. She wrote: 'Doctor, you keep talking about feminism. By Allah, neither you nor those with you really know what feminism is! I have been involved with them for years. I am a university graduate, a teacher, 42 years old, and a mother of 3 boys and 2 girls. So, I am not an ignorant woman.  I was drawn into this movement after I became addicted to Twitter and Instagram. May Allah not forgive the person who brought this into our lives. I was living peacefully. My husband was a good man - kind, generous, and respectable. But he was firm with me and our daughters. I got to know some women through Twitter and Instagram. Their discussions were very strong, and most of them were focused on hating everything related to men: husbands, fathers, and brothers. I saw them looking happy. They seemed to have no restrictions at all - not in the way they dressed, not in going out, or ...
