by Shaykh Alee bin Abdur Rahman Al Hudhayfee [Imaam Haram]

All praise is due to Allaah, Lord of all the worlds. Peace and blessings be upon the Messenger, his household and companions.

Fellow Muslims! Fear Allaah as He should be feared and obey Him. That is better for you in this world and the Hereafter.

Dear Muslims! Know that Allaah has done humankind a great favour by sending Muhammad, blessings and peace be upon him, to them as a Messenger. Allaah says, “We sent thee not, but as a mercy for all creatures.” (Al-Anbiyaa 21:107)

The Muslim is specially blessed with the message of Muhammad because he followed it and acted upon it; and the disbeliever is also generally blessed with the message of Islaam because Muslims’ adherence to the teachings of their religion prevents the evil of the disbelievers and dries up the sources of great corruption that could have occurred in the land. Allaah says,

“And did not Allah check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief: but Allah is full of bounty to all the worlds.” (Al-Baqarah 2:251)

Allaah revealed the greatest Book to His Messenger and He revealed to him the greatest explanation for that Book in form of the Sunnah. He undertakes the protection of the Qur’aan and the Sunnah from interpolations and changes and protects them from perverted ideas and interpretations. Allaah established proof against mankind through the leader of all Messengers. He guided Muhammad to the best guidance and made easy for him the best of all paths. Allaah says,

“And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).” (Al-A‘laa 87:8)

Allaah’s Messenger said, “The best speech is the Book of Allaah. The best guidance is that of Muhammad, blessings and peace be upon him. The worst of all affairs are the innovations and every innovation is erroneous.” (Muslim)

The Messenger of Allaah fulfilled his as far as levels of acts of worship; levels of the religion and level of meritorious deeds are concerned. He has fulfilled his obligation as best as possible. The Messenger of Allaah is the model for the worshipper, model for the caller for the way of Allaah, model for the teacher, model for the ruler, model for the leader, model for the soldier, and model for the husband and father. He is exemplar per excellence in human interactions and in all aspects of human endeavours. Allaah says,

“You have indeed in the Messenger of Allaah a beautiful pattern (of conduct) for any one whose hope is in Allaah and the Final Day, and who engages much in the praise of Allaah.” (Al-Ahzaab 33:21)

‘Aaishah said, “The Prophet’s [code of] conduct is the Qur’aan.” This means, he used to follow the injunctions of the Qur’aan in everything that he had to do and he abstained from all that the Qur’aan prohibits.

Fellow Muslims! The Sunnah of Allaah’s Messenger is the only guide to the straight path that the Muslims should follow. The Sunnah of Allaah’s Messenger entails all that is good. He who abandons the Prophet’s Sunnah will be deprived of all blessings and he who abandons some of the Sunnah has missed blessings that are in proportion to the Sunnah that he missed. read more

ALLAHUMMA INNY ASALUKA BI ANNY ASH HADU ANNAKA ANTALLAH LAA ILAAHA ILLAA ANTAL AHADUS SAMAD ALLATHY LAM YALID WA LAM YOOLAD WALAM YAKUN LAHOO KUFUWAN AHAD.

O Allah, I beg of thee by saying that I bear witness that verily thou art Allah; there is none worthy of worship besides thee; thou art unequalled and free from want – who was neither borne of anyone nor gave birth to anyone nor is there anyone equal to Him.

Wat 'n wonderlike ondervinding: ek het nooit kon dink dat wanneer ek die Pragtige Name van Allah gaan begin vertaal ek soveel vreugde daaruit sou ervaar nie. Kyk, dit is nou vir jou interessant hoor! Alle lof kom Allah toe! Ken jy al die Pragtige Name van Allah? Weet jy wat elke Naam presies beteken en wat Allah wil hê, soos Allah wil, dat dit vandag in 2010 vir jou sal beteken?

'n Broeder het selfs vir my 'n epos gestuur en daarop gewys dat Allah juis deur sy Name ook vandag in ons lewens betrokke wil wees. Alle lof kom Allah toe... so, gaan maak bietjie 'n draai hier, soos Allah wil, en dan epos jy my ook en sê my wat dink jy van dit wat ek klaar het sover... (Lees meer)
