Salah (Prayer)

Went to Masjid, but found out congregational salah already finished..

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (صلىالله عليه وسلم) said:

“If a person does wudoo’ and does it well, then sets out for the mosque but finds that the people have already prayed, Allaah will decree for him a reward like that of those who prayed and were present, and that will not detract anything from their reward.”

Narrated by Abu Dawood (564), al-Nasaa’i (855); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.

The Inner Reality of the Raafidah Reviling the Companions and their Narrations

Ibn Taymmeeyah (rahimahullaah) answered:

The Raafidah revile the companions and their narrations, but the inner reality of the matter is that they desire revilement of the Messengership (itself).

In another statement, Ibn Taymeeyah (rahimahullaah) said:

For indeed the dispraising of the best of generations, those of whom accompanied the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) is a dispraise of the Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam).

The Great Reward Of Going Early to the Friday Prayer (Jumuah)

493. Narrated Aboo Huraira (radhi Allaahu anhu) : Allaah’s Messenger (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam) said,

“Any person who takes a bath on Friday like the bath of Janaaba and then goes for the Salaat (prayer) (in the first hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allaah’s Cause); and whoever goes in the second hour, it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour, then it is as if he had offered an egg. When the Imaam comes out [i.e. starts deliveiring the Khutba (religious talk) ], the angels present themselves to listen to the Khutba.”

A labourer can give charity out of his earnings and it is severely forbidden to detract on who contributes a little

598. Narrated Aboo Mas’ood (radhi Allaahu anhu) :

When we were ordered to give alms, we used to start to work as porters (to earn something we could give in charity). Aboo ‘Uqail came with one half of a Saa (special measure for food grains) and another person brought more than he did. So the hypocrites said, “Allaah is not in need of the alms of this (i.e. ‘Uqail); and this other person did not give alms but for showing off.” Then Allaah (Subhahanu wata’alaa) revealed : ‘Those who defame such of the believer who give charity (in Allaah’s Cause) voluntarily, and those who could not find to give charity (in Allaah’s Cause) except what is available to them…’ (V.9 : 79)

The Complete, Whole Body Fast

During a conference [four] years ago, we came across the statement of Shaikh Saleh Al-Ash-Shaikh (hafidhahullaah), who said:

“Our fasting should have an impact on our limbs.

Jabir ibn Abdullaah (radiallaahu ‘anhu) said:

When you fast, your hearing has to fast, your sight has to fast, your tongue has to fast. …And do not make your fasting day like your normal day.

This is the complete fast.”
