Shaykh Yahya Bin 'Alee Al-Hajooree was asked

Question: 1e
We have been tested in these later times with the studying in mixed universities, specifically some of the brothers who strive upon the circles of knowledge, however streight after the secondary education ends they hurry along to the mixed universities with the pretext that they are not able to find employment except by obtaining a certificate, or with the pretext that their parent has insisted on this or he will be kicked out of the house and other than that, so then what is your advise to these brothers.

Answer:1
Many from the 'Ulemaa of the Sunnah have warned with every kind of warning, and have rejected this action with every rejection, relying upon verses from the book of Allah concerning that, and Hadeeth from the Sunnah of the messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family. And from those proofs concerning the prohibition upon that is the statement of Allah mighty and exalted be He:1

﴿وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَاعًا فَاسْأَلُوهُنَّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍ ذَلِكُمْ أَطْهَرُ لِقُلُوبِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِهِنَّ﴾And when you ask (his wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen, that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts
Al-Ahzaab 53

This command was aimed at the companions of the messenger of Allah and was towards the dealing with the wives of the messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and they were the most purest of hearts and the most virtuous of personalities, Allah blessed be He has attested them in His noble book, for He, The Most High, said:1

﴿النَّبِيُّ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَأَزْوَاجُهُ أُمَّهَاتُهُمْ﴾The Prophet is closer to the believers than their ownselves, and his wives are their (believers') mothers
Al-Ahzaab 6

And He, glorified be He, said:1

﴿وَالسَّابِقُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالأَنصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُمْ بِإِحْسَانٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ﴾And the first to embrace Islâm of the Muhâjirûn (those who migrated from Makkah to Al-Madinah) and the Ansâr (the citizens of Al-Madinah who helped and gave aid to the Muhâjirûn) and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith). Allâh is well-pleased with them as they are well-pleased with Him
At-Tawbah 100

And He, The Most High, said:1

﴿لِلْفُقَرَاءِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ الَّذِينَ أُخْرِجُوا مِنْ دِيارِهِمْ وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِنَ اللهِ وَرِضْوَانًا وَيَنْصُرُونَ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ الصَّادِقُونَ * وَالَّذِينَ تَبَوَّءُوا الدَّارَ وَالإِيمَانَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ يُحِبُّونَ مَنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلا يَجِدُونَ فِي صُدُورِهِمْ حَاجَةً مِمَّا أُوتُوا وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ﴾qqq(And there is also a share in this booty) for the poor emigrants, who were expelled from their homes and their property, seeking Bounties from Allâh and to please Him. And helping Allâh (i.e. helping His religion) and His Messenger (MuhammadSAW). Such are indeed the truthful (to what they say);- And those who, before them, had homes (in Al-Madinah) and had adopted the Faith, love those who emigrate to them, and have no jealousy in their breasts for that which they have been given (from the booty of Banî An-Nadîr), and give them (emigrants) preference over themselves, even though they were in need of that
Al-Hashr 8-9

And He said, holy be His name:1

﴿لا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ غَيْرُ أُوْلِي الضَّرَرِ وَالْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ فَضَّلَ اللهُ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ عَلَى الْقَاعِدِينَ دَرَجَةً وَكُلًّا وَعَدَ اللهُ الْحُسْنَى وَفَضَّلَ اللهُ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ عَلَى الْقَاعِدِينَ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا﴾Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with their wealth and their lives. Allâh has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allâh has promised good (Paradise), but Allâh has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward
An-Nisaa 95

Likewise Allah says exalted be His higness:1

﴿لَقَدْ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِذْ يُبَايِعُونَكَ تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ فَعَلِمَ مَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ فَأَنْزَلَ السَّكِينَةَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَثَابَهُمْ فَتْحًا قَرِيبًا﴾Indeed, Allâh was pleased with the believers when they gave their Bai'â (pledge) to you (O Muhammad) under the tree, He knew what was in their hearts, and He sent down As-Sakinah (calmness and tranquillity) upon them, and He rewarded them with a near victory
Al-Fath 18

And He said, glorified be He:1

﴿مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاءُ عَلَى الْكُفَّارِ رُحَمَاءُ بَيْنَهُمْ تَرَاهُمْ رُكَّعًا سُجَّدًا يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِنَ اللهِ وَرِضْوَانًا﴾Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh, and those who are with him are severe against disbelievers, and merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and falling down prostrate (in prayer), seeking Bounty from Allâh and (His) Good Pleasure
Al-Fath 29

And the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, said:1

q"Do not vilify my comanions, for if one of you was to give (in charity) the like of mount Uhud, it would not amount to a Madd (cupped handfull) of what they gave, not even half of that"1
Bukhari and Muslim

And he said, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him:1

q"Verily Allah looked upon the people of Badr then he said: "Do as you please, for I have already forgiven you"1
Bukhari and Muslim

These evidences prove the purity of the hearts of the companion of the messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and may Allah be pleased with all of them. Bearing that in mind, then the command was directed towards them in the begining, and it is for the believers generaly, and they are people who the messenger of Allah said concerning them, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family:1

q"The best of mankind is my generation, then those that follow them and then those that follow them, then after that there will come a people who testify and they were not asked to testify, they will betray and they will not be trusted, they swear oaths and do not fufill them, and fatness will appear amongst them."1
Bukhari and Muslim

So then the messenger of Allah described themwith these praisworthy attributes, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and he described those after them with despicable attributes, except he who Allah has mercy upon from the people of Haqq and Sunnah. Likewise the prophet said, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, as comes in the two Saheeh books on the authority of 'Uqbat Bin 'Aamir:1

q"Beware of entering upon the women"1

They said, "Oh messenger of Allah, what do you see regarding the inlaw?", he said:1

q"The inlaw is death"1

And in the two Saheeh books from the Hadeeth of Ibn Abbaas, may Allah be pleased with him:1

q"Verily the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, gave a sermon to the men on the day of 'Eid, then he went to the women and gave admonishion and reminded them"1

Al-Haafidh An-Nawawee said aswell: "Within it (i.e. the Hadeeth) is proof of segregation between the men and women, for if they were all in one place or gathered together they would have heard the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and he would have not needed to do a second sermon."1

Also in the two Saheeh books from the Hadeeth of Umm 'Atiyyah, may Allah be pleased with her: that the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, ordered the menstruating women and the ones in seclusion to go out to the Musalla (praying place) of the Muslims, and on account of this withdrawal and distancing from the men, the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, needed to give them a sermon so they could hear what they needed from the issues pertaining to the religion.11

In the two Saheeh books from the Hadeeth of Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudree, may Allah be pleased with him, that the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family said:111

q"Beware of sitting on the paths"1

They said: "Oh messenger of Allah, it is a must that we have our counsil", he said:2

q"if you must have your council, then give the path its right"1

They said: "and what is the right of the path"? He said:1

q"Lowering the gaze, refraining from harm, replying the Salaam and enjoining the good and forbiding the evil"1

Likewise the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, said:1

q"The woman is 'Awrah, when she goes out, the Shaytaan looks over her"1
from the Hadeeth of Ibn Mas'oud

Shaytaan lookes over her and inspires her that she is something great, and the messenger said, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family:1

q"I have never seen anybody more deficient in intellect and religion who are more overpowering to a resolute man than one of you women"1

A woman said "Oh messenger of Allah! what is different in our intellect and our religion?" he said:1

q"As for the deficiency in her religion, then she spends days and does not pray (i.e. menses), and as for the deficiency in her intellect, then the testification of a man is worth that of two women..." until the end of the Hadeeth

Our Lord, exalted be He, said:1

﴿قُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَلِكَ أَزْكَى لَهُمْ﴾Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.). That is purer for them
An-Noor 30

Lowering the gaze does not come from free mixing. there is no escape regarding that from talking, free mixing, touching, shaking hands, there is no escape concerning that from greater affairs that nobody knows (what goes on) except Allah, The Most High says:1

﴿قُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَلِكَ أَزْكَى لَهُمْ إِنَّ اللهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا يَصْنَعُونَ * وَقُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَ فُرُوجَهُنَّ وَلا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا﴾Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.). That is purer for them. Verily, Allâh is All-Aware of what they do.And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent
An-Noor 30-31

That female student intends to go to school with the utmost beauty and adornment, and Allah The Most High has said:1

﴿وَلا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَى جُيُوبِهِنَّ﴾and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc)1
An-Noor 31

And that female student reveals her face and does not draw her veil over it, Allah, glorified be He said:1

﴿وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَى جُيُوبِهِنَّ وَلا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا لِبُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ آبَائِهِنَّ أَوْ آبَاءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَائِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَاءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ إِخْوَانِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِي إِخْوَانِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِي أَخَوَاتِهِنَّ أَوْ نِسَائِهِنَّ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُنَّ أَوِ التَّابِعِينَ غَيْرِ أُوْلِي الإِرْبَةِ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ﴾and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islâm), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour
An-Noor 31

He who lacks vigour is he who has no intention for women neither any desire

﴿أَوِ الطِّفْلِ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَظْهَرُوا عَلَى عَوْرَاتِ النِّسَاءِ﴾ 
or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex
An-Noor 31

Is those who can not destinguish between ugliness or beauty, and the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, when he married Safiyyah he drooped a veil between her and those who were entering. In the two Saheeh books from the Hadeeth of A'aisha, may Allah be pleased with her: That the women used to pray behind the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and then they would leave as is they were crows, nobody would know who they were in the darkness. And in the Saheeh from the Hadeeth of Umm Salamah: That the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, if he left from his prayer he would wait a little while until the women had left [Bukhari] so that free mixing between the men and the women did not occur, and it is also affirmed in the Musnaf of Abdur-Razzaq, and it is narrated in the Musnaf of Ibn Abee Shaybah also: That Abdullah Bin 'Umar heard the prophet say, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family: 1

q"If you left this door for the women"1

So then Ibn 'Umar did not enter from this door again until he died. [Musanaf]1

So then the women had a seperate door to leave from after the prayer, and the messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, ordered that the rows of the women be the last rows without free mixing, due to their love for praying behind the messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family.1

This free mixed learning has to be carefully looked at, debating occurs, as does talking and hand shaking, and the majority of the people of knowledge have said: That giving Salaam to a unrelated women, if Fitnah will occur or it is feared that it will occur, then it is not permissible.1

All of these corrupt things occur within free mixed education, in college and high school, and I have seen a newspaper before that mentioned that most of the divorced cases are women who have studied in free mixed schools, for she leaves and is acustomed to talking with so and so and shaking hands and going out, and she wants to persue these things, after getting married perhaps he who has jelousy will not be pleased with that, even if he is sinful himself. In the Saheeh regarding the story of Jurayj from the Hadeeth of Abu Hurairah: That Banee Isra'eel were conspiring against Jurayj, a woman came and said: "if you wish I will cause Fitnah for him", so they told her to do it. so she went to him and displayed herself to him, but he did not become overpowered by her, so she offered herself to a shepherd. Then she came (after time) and gave birth under his hermitage. When she gave birth they said: "who has done this to you"? She said: "it is from Jurayj" so they grabbed axes, demolished his hermitage and started beating him, he said "What is the metter with you?" so they said: "you adulterated this prostitute and she gave birth to a boy from you" so he said "where is the boy", they said "It is this" so he prayed and then he was brought to him and he stabbed him with his finger, and said "who is your father" and he said "the shepherd" [Bukhari]111

Our point from this Hadeeth: That mixing between the men and the women is considered destruction in the old times from Banee Isra'eel because it corrups the congregation, and they are scheming against the Muslims with every scheme, He The Most High says:111

﴿وَلَنْ تَرْضَى عَنْكَ الْيَهُودُ وَلا النَّصَارَى حَتَّى تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمْ﴾Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you till you follow their religion
Al-Baqarah 120

And He said:1

﴿مَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَلا الْمُشْرِكِينَ أَنْ يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ﴾Neither those who disbelieve among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) nor Al-Mushrikûn (the disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh, idolaters, polytheists, pagans, etc.) like that there should be sent down unto you any good from your Lord
Al-Baqarah 105

And He said:1

﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَتَّخِذُوا الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِنْ دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَتُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَجْعَلُوا لِلَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطَانًا مُبِينًا﴾O you who believe! Take not for Auliyâ' (protectors or helpers or friends) disbelievers instead of believers. Do you wish to offer Allâh a manifest proof against yourselves
An-Nisaa' 144

For they are not pleased with the current situation of the Muslims, as many of them patiently forebare the sins, and they spend exorbitant amounts of money to corrupt the woman in order for her to corrupt the man. For from the women are those who are clothed yet naked, just as he said, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family:1

q"The clothed yet naked women who walk with in an enticing manner will not enter paradise, neither will they find its fragrence"1

She dresses in transparent clothes, on the apparent she is clothed but yet she is naked. 'Umar and another man passed by the prophet, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and he said:1

q"slow down for verily it is Safiyyah"q

And in the narration within Muslim:1

q"It is my wife Safiyyah"1

They said: "Oh messenger of Allah, meaning: it is as if they found within themselves (something) from this, then he said:1

q"Verily Shaytaan runs like blood through Banee Aadam and I fear that he has struck something in their heart"1
Bukhari and Muslim

So is it that Shaytaan can not be with the secretary and with the doctor?!!! And that he can not be with the male and female student?!!! And he can not be in the exam time and with those (coversational) tones when the woman meets with the teacher "Oh teacher what is this issue we do not understand it"?! Mistakes, by Allah Oh brothers. Verily it is considered treachery to the religion of Allah, blessed be his name, from the like of some of these Mufties who give permission for free mixing, they are considered trators to the religion of Allah. It is obligatory for every Muslim to fear Allah and to advise himself and others, and not to be a prisoner of employment, Allah knows best what will come to him from employment or if he will die before it happens (i.e. he finds employment). For from the people is he who becomes worshipper of the Dirham and the Deenaar, and he venerates this certificate, even if it be with falsehood, even if it be with free mixed education with the prospect of attaining employment, He The Most High said:1

﴿وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا * وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لا يَحْتَسِبُ وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ إِنَّ اللهَ بَالِغُ أَمْرِهِ﴾And whosoever fears Allâh and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out. And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allâh, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allâh will accomplish his purpose
At-Talaaq 2-3

And the prophet said, may the epace and blessings of allah be upon him and his family:1

q"He who leaves off from something for Allah, Allah will replace it with something better than that"1

And the prophet said, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, as is in the Hadeeth of Zayd Bin Thaabit, may Allah be pleased with him:1

q"Whoever makes the Dunya his concern, Allah will scatter his affairs, put poverty before him and nothing of the Dunya will come to him except that which is written for him, and whoever makes the Aakhirah his concern, Allah will gather together his affairs, place contentment in his heart and the Dunya will come to him despite his reluctance"1
Ibn Maajah, Ahmed and Shaykh Muqbil in Saheeh Musnad

And All praise is for Allah, Lord of all that exists

Description Of Paradise & The Delights That It Contains - Ibn al-Qayyim‏

In The Name Of Allah..

Ibn al-Qayyim said, in regards to the description of the Paradise and the delights that it contains:

"And if you ask about its ground and its soil, then it is of musk and saffron. 

And if you ask about its roof, then it is the Throne of the Most Merciful. 

And if you ask about its rocks, then they are pearls and jewels. 

And if you ask about its buildings, then they are made of bricks of gold and silver. 

And if you ask about its trees, then it does not contain a single tree except that its trunk is made of gold and silver. 

And if you ask about its fruits, then they are softer than butter and sweeter than honey. 

And if you ask about its leaves, then they are softer than the softest cloth.

And if you ask about its rivers, then there are rivers of milk who's taste does not change, and rivers of wine that is delicious to those who drink it, and rivers of honey that is pure, and rivers of water that is fresh.

And if you ask about their food, then it is fruits from whatever they will choose, and the meat of whatever birds they desire.

And if you ask about their drink, then it is Tasneem, ginger, and Kaafoor.

And if you ask about their drinking cups, then they are crystal-clear and made of gold and silver.

And if you ask about its shade, then a fast rider would ride in the shade of one of its trees for a hundred years and not escape it.

And if you ask about its vastness, then the lowest of its people would have within his kingdom and walls and palaces and gardens the distance that would be travelled in a thousand years.

And if you ask about its tents and encampments, then one tent is like a concealed pearl that is sixty miles long.

And if you ask about its towers, then they are rooms above rooms in buildings that have rivers running underneath them.

And if you ask about how far it reaches into the sky, then look at the shining star that is visible, as well as those that are far in the heavens that the eyesight cannot possibly reach.

And if you ask about the clothing of its inhabitants, then they are of silk and gold.

And if you ask about its beds, then its blankets are of the finest silk laid out in the highest of its levels.

And if you ask about the faces of its inhabitants and their beauty, then they are like the image of the Moon.

And if you ask about their age, then they are young ones of 33 years in the image of Adam, the father of humanity.

And if you ask about what they will be hearing, then it is the singing of their wives from among the Hoor al-'Ayn, and better than that are the voices of the Angels and the Prophets, and better than that is the Speech of the Lord of the Worlds.

And if you ask about their servants, then they are young boys of everlasting youth who resemble scattered pearls.

And if you ask about their brides and wives, then they are young and full-breasted and have had the liquid of youth flow through their limbs; the Sun runs along the beauty of her face if she shows it, light shines from between her teeth if she smiles; if you meet her love, then say whatever you want regarding the joining of two lights; he sees his face in the roundness of her cheek as if he is looking into a polished mirror, and he sees the brightness from behind her muscles and bones; if she were to be unleashed upon the World, she would fill what is between the Heavens and the Earth with a beautiful wind, and the mouths of the creation would glorifiy, praise, and exclaim greatness, and everything between the East and the West would be adorned for her, and every eye would be shut from everthing but her, and the light of the Sun would be outshone just as the light of the Sun outshines the light of the stars, and everyone on the face of the Earth would believe in the Ever-Living, the One who Sustains and Protects all the exists.

And the covering on her head is better than the World and all that is in it, and she does not increase with age except in beauty; free from an umbilical cord, childbirth and menses, and pure of mucous, saliva, urine and other filthy things; her youth never fades, her clothing is never worn out, no garment can be created that matches her beauty, and no one who is with her can ever become bored; her attention is restricted to her husband, so she desires none but him, just as his attention is restricted to her so she is the sole object of his desire, and he is with her in utmost safety and security, as none has touched her before of either humans or Jinn.

And if you ask about the Day of Increase (in reward) and the visit of the all-Mighty, all-Wise, and the sight of His Face - free from any resemblance or likeness to anything - as you see the Sun in the middle of the day and the full Moon on a cloudless night, then listen on the day that the caller will call: 'O People of Paradise! Your Lord - Blessed and Exalted - requests you to visit Him, so come to visit Him!' So they will say: 'We hear and obey!' 

Until, when they finally reach the wide valley where they will all meet - and none of them will turn down the request of the caller - the Lord - Blessed and Exalted - will order His Chair to be brought there. Then, pulpits of light will emerge, as well as pulpits of pearls, gemstone, gold, and silver. The lowest of them in rank will sit on sheets of musk, and will not see what those who are on the chairs above them are given. When they are comfortable where they are sitting and are secure in their places, and the caller calls: 'O People of Paradise! You have an appointment with Allaah in which He wishes to reward you!' So they will say: 'And what is that reward? Has He not already made our faces bright, made our scales heavy, entered us into Paradise, and pushed us away from the Fire?' 

And when they are like that, all of a sudden a light shines that encompasses all of Paradise. So, they raise their heads, and, behold: the Compeller - Exalted is He, and Holy are His Names - has come to them from above them and majestified them and said: 'O People of Paradise! Peace be upon you!' So, this greeting will not be responded to with anything better than: 'O Allaah! You are Peace, and from You is Peace! Blessed are You, O possessor of Majesty and Honor!' So the Lord - Blessed and Exalted - will laugh to them and say: 'O People of Paradise! Where are those who used to obey Me without having ever seen Me? This is the Day of Increase!'

So, they will all give the same response: 'We are pleased, so be pleased with us!' So, He will say: 'O People of Paradise! If I were not pleased with you, I would not have made you inhabitants of My Paradise! So, ask of Me!' So, they will all give the same response: 'Show us your Face so that we may look at it!' So, the Lord - Mighty and Majestic - will remove his covering and will majestify them and will cover them with His Light, which, if Allaah - the Exalted - had not Willed not to burn them, would have burned them. 

And there will not remain a single person in this gathering except that his Lord - the Exalted - will speak to him and say: 'Do you remember the day that you did this and that?' and He will remind him of some of his bad deeds in the Worldy life, so he will say: 'O Lord! Will you not forgive me?' So, He will say: 'Of course! You have not reached this position of yours (in Paradise) except by my forgiveness.'

So, how sweet is this speech to the ears, and how cooled are the righteous eyes by the glance at His Noble Face in the Afterlife...

{Some faces that Day will be shining and radiant, looking at their Lord...} (al-Qiyaamah:22-3)

The Blockade of Dammaj - 19th December 2011

Bismillaah
 

The Blockade of Dammaj - 19th December 2011
 
The day began and the Blockade is continuous upon Daarul-Hadeeth in Dammaj; Allaah preserves his Awliyaa and he is the best of Preservers, and he is the Provider and the best of Providers. This is after a Bloody day for the Children and Women from what Houthies undertook when they bombarded the houses of the Students with Heavy Artillery.
 
The Houthies propagate some news regarding their  determination in taking over Dammaj quickly and fiercely as they claim, and this with them is extreme intelligence!!
 
And Ash-Shaykh Yahya Bin 'Ali Al-Hajooree has produced an advice for them before its too late (for them to leave off their oppression) and it is a valuable advice, if the Houthies were to accept it would be better for them.

Brief Update from yesterday!!
 

The Brother 'Abduraheem Al-'Adeeni - May Allaah have mercy upon him - was snippered (and killed).
‪
نحسبه شهيد والله حسيبه
 
Similarly, a lady was wounded whilst she was with her son and her two daughters. She was  successfully taken to Sa'dah by the the Red Cross with her two daughters, however, her son died due to his excessive bleeding, which is another new crime added to the crimes of the Criminal Houthies, the Apostates.
 
The name of the little boy was: Az-Zubayr Hasan Al-Ghumayri - May Allaah have mercy upon him.
‪

Two students were wounded after Maghrib during the severe bombings, and I believe they died - May Allaah have mercy upon them.
 
Also, the brother Muhammad Al-Hajooree was wounded - I ask Allaah to cure him.

The Blockade of Dammaj - 18th December 2011

The Blockade of Dammaj - 18th December 2011 

Yesterday they killed the little baby Ikraam and today they shot an Old lady in Dammaj!!!

The day began after the tragedy and the ugly crime which the enemies of Islaam and the enemies of the Noble Sahaabah from the Houthie Raafidhah did, in snippering the innocent baby Ikraam which brought about much enthusiasm to take revenge for her, and for every one who established At-Tawheed from amongst them who was killed oppressively.

And today after the Fajr prayer, a woman who was old in age was snippered in her foot and the blood has not ceased pouring from her - I ask Allaah to cure her - and there is not enough First Aid kits, whilst the Blockade is still in place and the snippering is continuous and Allah - Azza Wajal - takes revenge for his Noble Awliyaa.

Like that they have no mercy upon a breastfed baby, neither do they have any mercy upon and an old lady, nor an old man. This is their black history repeating itself time and time again. Even with this, Allaah aids His Awliyaa and He gives them from his Bounty.

The Convoys to Aid (Ahlus-Sunnah) from the Yemeni tribes make their way to Waayilah openly persisting to free Sa'dah from the Ar-Rafd (the way of the Rawaafidh) and its oppositions, so that Sa'dah - Inshallaah - becomes as it was in the time of the Sahaabah - Sunni and Salafi.

The people began moving towards Sa'dah from different angles in revenge for you Oh Ikraam and your likes, those who were oppressed Oh little Baby.

The Houthies Bombing The Masjid In Dammaj

The Blockade of Dammaj - 17th December 2011

Bismillaah 

The Blockade of Dammaj - 17th December 2011

The day began and Sixty days have past and your brothers in Dammaj remain in the Oppresive Blockade; the Snipering is continuous and Martyrs have Preceded - Men, women and children. Whilst the Houthies drop in their Hundreds with the Might and Power of Allaah.
 

Even with this, the Kindness of Allaah to his servants - those who establish At-tawheed - is evident, and to Allaah belongs the first and last of praises. And Allah is the Provider, the one who when he gives to an individual, no-one is able to prevent his giving.

Last night and student was killed due to the severe bombings, I ask Allaah that he has mercy upon him, and that he accepts him from the Martyrs. And the severe bombings are taking place only because of the great victory from Allaah being attained in Waayilah.

Also, last night the brothers - May Allaah grant them success - made an attack at the area 'An-Nuquu' and many of the Houthies dropped, some were killed and some were injured. And we give the glad tidings to out brothers Ahlus-Sunnah in every place the your brothers in Dammaj are in constant Jihaad and are aiding, assisting and sympathising for one another that which there is no equivalent to, and that they in a Goodness. And similarly our Shaykh Yahya - May Allaah preserve him - is in a state of good health and preserved with the preserving of Allaah, the Most High, and he was not harmed as what media mention. 

I present to you this emotional recording of one of the Children of Dammaj, that which will encourage you to Aid your brothers:

A Call to Aid Dammaj By: Shaikh Sa`d bin Nasir ash-Shithri

All praise is for Allah, the Lord of all that exists, and may peace and blessings be on the most honorable of all prophets and messengers.

As to what follows:

Proceeding with the statement of the Prophet, salla-llahu `alaihi wa sallam, “Aide your brother, regardless if he is wrong or being wronged.” [Collected in Sahih al-Bukhari, 2444], as has been authentically mentioned, and also, out of desire to protect the blood of our brothers, the students of knowledge, who are in Dammaj and its surroundings, and out of desire to make the oppressors return to Allah, jalla wa `alaa, so that they will be saved from having spilled any Muslim blood in their conscience, so that they do not have to face Allah with that on the Day of Resurrection and fall under the statement of the Prophet, salla-llahi `alaihi wa sallam, “A believer is in the bounds of his religion as long as he does not spill blood which is forbidden to spill. [Collected by al-Bukhari, 6862], and out of desire to remove injustice – as injustice has a bad ending, both in the Dunya and the Akhira – as Allah said, “For the Zalimoon (polytheists and wrongdoers, etc.) there is no helper.” [35:37]

Also, the Prophet, salla-llahi `alaihi wa sallam, said, “Allah gives respite to the oppressor, but when He takes him over, He never releases him.” Then he recited, “Such is the Seizure of your Lord when He seizes (population of) towns in the midst of their wrong: Painful indeed, and severe is His Seizure. [11.102]” [Collected by al-Bukhari, 4686]

Therefore, I call on all Muslims, in the East and West, to hasten to the aide of their brothers, the students of knowledge, in Dammaj and its surroundings. Note that aiding them can take place in a number of forms:

1. Firstly, to supplicate to Allah, jalla wa `alaa, and humbling one’s self to Him, subhanah, to protect the blood of our brothers there, to drive injustice away from them, and to protect them from the oppressors. This is based on a number of religious texts which encourage supplication to Allah, jalla wa `alaa, wherein Allah promises the believers that he will answer their supplications, as Allah said, “And your Lord said: ‘Invoke Me and I will respond to your (invocation). Verily! Those who scorn My worship (i.e. do not invoke Me, and do not believe in My Oneness, (Islamic Monotheism)) they will surely enter Hell in humiliation!’” [40:60] Also, “And when My slaves ask you (O Muhammad SAW) concerning Me, then (answer them), I am indeed near (to them by My Knowledge). I respond to the invocations of the supplicant when he calls on Me.” [2:186] It has also been transmitted from the Prophet, salla-llahi `alaihi wa sallam, that he said, “Allah will respond to the supplication of one of you, as long as he does not hasten the answer.” [Sahih al-Bukhari, 6340]

2. Secondly, everyone who is able to aide them in any way, it is obligatory on them. That is because aiding will result in safeguarding blood, spreading knowledge, preserving souls, pushing injustice away, and other intents of the religion that result from aiding them. So, everyone who is able to help them, through any means, regardless of a word he utters, or an article, or by giving advice, or by proceeding to try and make peace, or by helping keep away from the war torn areas. It can also be in the form of monetary help, such as with weapons, or power, or to fight alongside them to drive away the injustice that has fallen on them, all this is among the best ways to get closer to Allah, jalla wa `alaa. The religious texts have encouraged helping the one being wronged, and the Prophet, salla-llahi `alaihi wa sallam, has clarified that, “The Muslim is the brother of his fellow Muslim, he does not wrong him, and he does not abandon him.” [Declared sahih by al-Imam al-Albani, Mushkilat al-Faqr, 88] Meaning, he does not leave him to those who are trying to oppress him.

(Translators Note: Beginning from here until the end of the audio clip, the Shaikh, may Allah preserve him, begins weeping as can be heard by the trembling in his voice.)

I also advise my brothers, the students of knowledge, there to hold fast to Allah, jalla wa `alaa, to rely on Him, subhanah, and to know that victory is in the Hands of Allah, jalla wa `alaa, and he grants victory to whomever He Wills among His slaves. When they rely on Allah, then no doubt Allah will grant them victory and drive the injustice of the oppressors who want to assault them away from them, as Allah said, “If Allah helps you, none can overcome you.” [3:160] And He said, “And (as for) the believers it was incumbent upon Us to help (them).” Allah also said, “Verily, We will indeed make victorious Our Messengers and those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) in this worldly life and on the Day when the witnesses will stand forth, (i.e. Day of Resurrection).” [40:51]

Based on all that, I advise that their hearts should rely on Allah, and that they do not look at their own strength or their monetary capabilities, because He who ruler of creation is the Lord of Glory and Majesty, and if Allah wants something, all He says is, ‘be’ and it is. Allah will grant victory and aide those who rely on Him, as He said, ta`alaa, “And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him.” [65:3] Meaning, that Allah will be all he needs, and hence will not need anyone besides his Lord.

That is why I am trying to clarify to my brothers the Muslims that aiding those students of knowledge is among the ways of getting closer to Allah, `azza wa jall. As for those killed among them, they are considered martyrs, those who are injured are under the protection of the Lord of Glory and Majesty, and those who fight them are victorious by the Permission of the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists, the All-Powerful, the Mighty, Who is able to do all things, and Who does whatever He Wants.

I ask Allah, jalla wa `alaa, to protect them from all evil, to drive the injustice of the oppressors away from them, to protect their blood, and to allow all the people of goodness to support them, aide them, and help them with whatever they can.

That, and Allah knows best, and may Allah send His Blessings on our Prophet, Muhammad, his family, companions, and followers, and to send much peace until the Day of Resurrection.
