Selected Chapters from Sharh Riyadh As-Saliheen

[2014] Shaikh Rabee’ bin Haadee Umayr al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah) is undoubtedly one of the greatest scholars of this generation. In an era when ahlul-bid’ah had found newer ways of infiltrating and corrupting the methodology and beliefs of the youth of ahlus-Sunnah, this Imaam of the Sunnah stood up to uphold the creed of the Salaf. He, more than any other in this time, has uncovered and exposed misguided groups and sects who violate the pure Sunnah of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wassallam) and his Companions.

Not only that, but he is an Imaam in hadeeth, usool and fiqh who has authored dozens of books that have been praised and recommended by the great scholars of era.

However, there is no scholar in this time who has been more maligned than Shaikh Rabee’! Why? The more he uncovered the paths of misguidance, the more the sectarians attacked and reviled him. In this tremendous lecture by our brother Abu Khadeejah, not only does he discuss Shaikh Rabee’ as a Scholar, but also he talks about the principles established by the early great scholars of the early Salaf in testing the people and their love for the Scholars to establish their Salafiyyah.

Abu Khadeejah reads the words of praise for Shaikh Rabee’ from the great scholars such as Ibn Baaz, Ibn Uthaimeen, and al-Albaanee. Furthermore, Shaikh Rabee’ defends himself from those who state that he is harsh. Also included is Shaikh Rabee’s discussion with Shaikh al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah) when the latter stated that there is something with Shaikh Rabee’ of harshness – and Shaikh al-Albaanee’s subsequent clarification.

This is a must listen for those who love the scholars and for those deceived by the adversaries of Shaikh Rabee’ b. Haadee.

The Importance of Choosing Good Companionship By Abu Khadeejah

The khuṭbah at Masjid al-Furqān (TROID) on 2022.07.15 that preceded the 2022 summer conference entitled: Singling Out the Truth Amidst a Sea of Falsehood. Shaykh Kāshiff Khān mentions numerous ayāt and ḥadīth about the blessing of following the Sunnah and clinging to it amidst a sea of misguidance. 

Narrated Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You will follow the ways of those nations who were before you, span by span and cubit by cubit (i.e., inch by inch) so much so that even if they entered a hole of a mastigure, you would follow them." We said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! (Do you mean) the Jews and the Christians?" He said, "Whom else?" Saḥiḥ al-Bukhārī 7320

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُمَرَ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ ـ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ ـ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ لَتَتْبَعُنَّ سَنَنَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ شِبْرًا شِبْرًا وَذِرَاعًا بِذِرَاعٍ، حَتَّى لَوْ دَخَلُوا جُحْرَ ضَبٍّ تَبِعْتُمُوهُمْ ‏"‏‏.‏ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى قَالَ ‏"‏ فَمَنْ ‏"‏‏.‏
