Cover your vessels at night - Shaykh Ubayd al-Jaabiree

Reblogged from Salaf-us-Saalih.com :: The Call of the Salaf is True Islam:

Question: This questioner has three questions.

The first question: Is covering the vessels during the night obligatory or not? Based upon his صَلَّىٰ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ statement:

غطُّوا آنيتَكُم

Cover your vessels.

Shaykh Ubaid: You are alluding to the hadith of Hudaifah, that which has been agreed upon from him:

أوكِئوا السِّقاء  واذكروا اسم اللهِ عليْه، وَخمِّروا الإِناء واذكروا اسم اللهِ عليْه وَلَوْ أَن تضعوا عليهِ عودًا

Shaytan’s Three Angles of Attack - Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawzīyah, Al-Fawaa`id

Reblogged from Salaf-us-Saalih.com :: The Call of the Salaf is True Islam:

Shaytan’s Three Angles of Attack
#85 -Owais Al-Hashimi (hafidhahullaah)
Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawzīyah, Al-Fawā`id 1:277

Every intelligent person knows that Shaytān has no way to him except from three angles:

1. Extravagance. takes more than he needs, so it becomes superfluous; and is the share of Shaytān and his point of entry to the heart. The way to avoid this is to avoid giving the self all it wants of food, sleep, pleasure and comfort.

What is the Language of the Jinn? – Shaykh Abdul-Azeez bin Baaz

What is the Language of the Jinn?
By: the Eminent Shaykh Abdul-Azeez bin Baaz

Question:

The questioner asks concerning the language of the jinn, O Eminent Shaykh?

Answer:

That which is apparent is that they are like humans, in that they have various languages. Amongst them there is the English (jinn), amongst them there is the French, amongst them there is the American and amongst them there is the non-Arab and the Arab; (there are various) races amongst them. Because Allah has said concerning them:

“There are among us some that are righteous and some that are contrary; we are groups having different ways.”  (Al-Jinn 72: 11)

And they are upon different sects. He, Glorified be He, has said: “And some of us are Muslims and some of us are Qaasitoon (disbelievers).”  (Al-Jinn 72:14)

So they are of different groups and sects. Amongst them there is the pure and amongst them there is the impure. Amongst them there is the Jahmee (follower of the teachings of the Jahmiyyah), amongst them there is the Sunnee (follower of the Sunnah), amongst them there is the Raafidhee (from the extreme Shee’ah), amongst them there is the Christian, amongst them there is the Jew and amongst them there is other than that. (They are of) various groups and sects: “There are among us some that are righteous and some that are contrary; we are groups having different ways.”  (Al-Jinn 72: 11) His statement: “…some that are contrary…”, is general including (all) other groups.

The Meeting Between Yahyah az-Zimmiy and Shaytaan

Abridged: The Meeting Between Yahyah az-Zimmiy and Shaytaan
Derived Benefit by Shaykh Rabee’ ibn Haadee ‘Umayr al-Madkhalee

Abdillaah Al-Qazweeniy also narrated to us, saying: Yahyaa Ibnu Abdaka Al-Qazweeniy said: I heard Yahyaa Ibn Yoosuf Az-Zummiy saying: Once I was taking a midday nap in one of the sandstone inns, then suddenly a powerful creature (of  a strange and frightening appearance) entered upon me, so I said: ”Who are you?”  He said: ”You not scared O father of Zakariyyah!” I said: ”Yes, (i.e. I am not scared), who are you”, and I stood up ready to fight him.  So he said:  “I am Abu Murra (i.e. shaytaan.”)  So I said: Laa HayyaakAllaah– ‘’May Allaah not give you life- (i.e. may He not maintain your life upon good).” So he said: ”Had I known that you were in this house I would not have entered and I would have resided in another house. This has been my place of residence since I came to Khurasaan.”  I said: ”Where did you come from?” He said: ”From Iraq.”  So I said:”What did you do in Iraq?” He said: “I have left a vicegerent in it.”  I said: ”Who is he?”  He said:”Bishr Al-Marreesiy.”   I said: ”What is he calling to (i.e. propagating)?”  He said: ”He is  propagating) that the Qur’aan is created, and I came to Khurasaan and also left a vicegerent in it.“ I said: ”What do you say about the Qur’aan?”  He said: “And even though I am an accursed devil, I say that the Qur’aan is the speech of Allaah and it is not created.”… 

Shaykh Rabee’ said: “… This story was narrated from Yahyah Ibn Yoosuf  (Abu Zakariyyah) with an authentic chain of transmission.  shaytaan came to him whilst he was in a house that resembles a hotel, where strangers and those arriving at a place take as their place of residence.  Shaytaan entered upon him and said: “You not scared of me?”  So Abu Zakariyyah said to him: “No, I am not scared of you, and who are you?”  So shaytaan said: “I am Abu Murra; i.e. I am shaytaan—the big shaytaan–May the curse of Allaah be upon him.” Yahyah was ready to fight him, so shaytaan said: ‘’I am Abu Murra.’’ Yahyah said to him: ”May Allaah not give you life (i.e. may He not maintain your life upon goodness.)  

Yahyah was firm and strong at heart in challenging shaytaan, because a person may not be able to face the Jinn.  There are many people who die out of fear when they see the Jinn.

However, some people are able to face the Jinn and defeat them and amongst them was Umar Ibnul Khattaab (radiyallaahu-anhu), because he did not walk a path except that shaytaan took a different path.

And Abu Hurairah  (radiyallaahu-anhu) was from such people because he captured shaytaan three times whilst shaytaan was stealing from the food the Messenger(sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) asked Abu Hurairah to guard.

A strong believer neither fears the Jinn nor the people. He does not fear anyone except Allaah, especially the type of fear that is tantamount to shirk—we seek Allaah’s protection from this.  Some people have a fear that is tantamount to shirk—fear of the dead and the devils. We seek Allaah’s protection from calamity. However, Yahyah-Abu Zakariyyah did not fear, rather he was strong at heart and strong in facing shaytaan

So shaytaan said to him: “Had I known that you were in this house, I would not have entered.”  This proves that shaytaan does not have knowledge of the unseen and the Jinn do not know the unseen, just as Allaah stated in the story of Sulaymaan (alayhis-salaam :(“Then when We decreed death for him [Sulaiman (Solomon)], nothing informed them (jinns) of his death except a little worm of the earth, which kept (slowly) gnawing away at his stick, so when he fell down, the jinns saw clearly that if they had known the unseen, they would not have stayed in the humiliating torment.” [Soorah Sabah: Ayah: 14]

Allaah said: “Shall I inform you (O people!) upon whom the Shayatin (devils) descend? They descend on every lying (one who tells lies), sinful person.  Who gives ear (to the devils and they pour what they may have heard of the unseen from the angels), and most of them are liars.“ [Soorah Shu-araa Ayah: 221-223]

The devils steal from the news of the heavens by snatching a statement and descend with it; then they relate it to the soothsayer or the magician and add a hundred lies to it.  This person who receives this from the devils is a shaytaan, a soothsayer and a magician. But whether he is a soothsayer, a shaytaan or a magician, they all receive slander and lies from shaytaan.  They are liars because whoever narrates a narration whilst knowing that it is a lie, then indeed he is one of the liars.

So Yahyah asked shaytaan where he came from and he said that he was from Iraq.  The trials and tribulations flared up in Iraaq.  So Yahyah said to him: “What did you do in Iraq?” He said: “I left a vicegerent in it.“  Yahyah said to him: “Who is he?“  He said: “Bishr Al-Marreesiy.”  Therefore, the callers to innovation and misguidance are the vicegerents of shaytaan and the scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets and their vicegerents Inshaa-Allaah.

The callers to innovation, falsehood, disbelief and misguidance are vicegerents of Iblees and his armies.  Therefore be cautious of being amongst the army of shaytaan or amongst his vicegerents.

Then Yahyah asked shaytaan about what Bishr Al-Marreesiy was calling to? He said that he was saying that the Qur’aan is created.  This alone is a great achievement for shaytaan, because it brought about strife, differing and such and such.

However, there are innovations greater than it– and protection is sought from Allaah—being propagated by many people and you will find that it is the hundredth one amongst his/their innovations.  These people are more severe and they cause more strife in being the vicegerents of shaytaan than Bishr Al-Marreesiy.  And I (i.e. Shaikh Rabee) have said to some of those who defend some of the contemporary people of innovations:  What is your resentment against Bishr al-Marreesiy and what led both the people of Sunnah and the people of innovation in this Ummah to drop him? He said: ‘’Because he said that the Qur’aan is created.’’  I said: Such and such joins him in this affair and he has other big innovations that are greater than this, so how is it that you do not tremble.  Watch out against blindness O brothers!  We seek Allaah’s protection from blindness and misguidance.  We seek Allaah’s protection from calamity, especially when these people attribute themselves to the salafi manhaj with their calamities.  The distress will be very heavy and the calamity will be greater if the supporters of the big innovations make claims and ascribe themselves to the salafi Manhaj.  By Allaah this is a distress upon the Ummah, for many have harmed themselves and harmed the stupid and ignorant people.  We ask Allaah for well-being!

Shaytaan then said: ‘’then I came to khurasaan…..’’: This is the east, as it has been stated that the horn of shaytaan will rise from there.  The horn of shaytaan rose in Iraq and its surrounding areas—the innovations of the Raafidah (Shia), the Khawaarij, the Mutazilah, the Jahmiyyah and other than them.  And also in Iraq arose the innovation that the Qur’aan is created.  Shaytaan raised his horn from this east and we ask Allaah (The Blessed and Most High) to prevent Islaam and the Islamic nation from its evil.

So Yahyah said to shaytaan: “What do you say about the Qur’aan?” That is:  If you (shaytaan) have this zeal and a vicegerent for this innovation, then what is your view about it?  He (shaytaan) said: “And even though I am an accursed devil, I say that the Qur’aan is the speech of Allaah and it is not created.’’ Shaytaan laughs at the people and ruins them, Allaah said: “He only invites his Hizb(followers) that they may become the dwellers of the blazing Fire.” We seek Allaah’s protection (from that).

Alright, some of the callers to Islaam would say to you that he does not believe in such and such.  For example, it is said to him: “What do you say about wahdatul-wujood (i.e. oneness of Being—the belief of kufr which means that everything that is seen is Allah or a manifestation of Allah?”   Alright, he says that he does not believe in wahdatul wujood, but he calls to it!  He is a shaytaan and he is more of a filth that those who fall to this innovation.

They say to you: such-and-such does not utter the innovation of wahdatul wujood, yet he is the utterer and author of it. Was it a slip of the tongue and the pen; however he praises the people of wahdatul wujood!?  If he does not believe it, then he is worse than them and this is amongst the plots of shaytaan, for he (shaytaan) does not believe that the Qur’aan is created yet he calls to it and is zealous about it.  For example: A (person) calls to socialism, Judaism or Christianity and he praises these creeds whilst not believing in them! Paul called to Christianity whilst not believing in it and he was more of a disbeliever amongst them because he does not believe that Eesaa is the son of Allaah and that he is the third of the three or that he is Allaah, yet he fabricated these beliefs; therefore he is more of a disbeliever than the Christians.  This is the same as the affair of the one who calls to innovation—he calls to an innovation that is tantamount to disbelief or an innovation that is not tantamount to disbelief, then he is worse than the one who believes in it but does not call to it.”
