L95 Explanation Kitaab As-Sunnah Ibn Majah Abu Khadeejah 06012023

Our esteemed brother, Ustādh Abū al-Ḥasan Mālik al-Akhdar, reflects on visiting TROID for the first time in 15+ years. He speaks vividly about the early days of TROID and the daʿwah in Canada. He mentions the struggles to establish the current Islamic Centre and Masjid al-Furqān, from the early days of congregating in a small office, cramming a dozen or so brothers on the floor, leaning forward, lending their ears towards computer speakers broadcasting telelinks on Paltalk. Collecting and spreading cassettes. He mentions the joy he and others had visiting this small space in Canada, to spend time with beloved brothers for the sake of Allāh, united, striving, not worrying about numbers or buildings etc. just daʿwah, minute by minute, day by day, building. Two decades of unity, togetherness and striving to connect the people to the scholars, to spread their works by way of articles, audio, live lessons, seminars, telelinks, publications and more. We ask Allāh to reward Abū al-Ḥasan for his tutelage, his mentoring, his companionship, from 1998 till present.

Reflections on the History of TROID - Abū al-Ḥasan Mālik al-Akhdar

In the past, the great scholar of ḥadīth, Shaykh Rabīʿ' ibn Hādī al-Madkhalī issued some statements in regards to him being called, "Imām of Jarḥ wa Taʿdīl" and being considered a scholar. The noble shaykh, following in the footsteps of great scholars who preceeded him like Imām al-Albānī (who called himself a طُويلب -  [just] a small student), negated scholarship for himself and showed dislike for being praised. This is a characterstic of humilty and follows in the way of the Salaf - humility, hating being elevated etc. Naturally, those with sinister objectives sought to utilise this speech to infer that Shaykh Rabīʿ is not an Imām, not a scholar, and not fit to critique (ahl al-bidʿah), hoping to dismiss every criticism ever levied by this noble scholar. In this benefit, our brother Abū al-Ḥasan Mālik sheds light on this sinister behaviour. In addition, Abū Khadījah recently blogged "Is Shaykh Rabīʿ a Scholar of this Era?" Pay attention to this audio clip and the blog posting. The people of trickery and deception never cease in their attempts to confuse.

Shaykh Rabīʿ': "I am not the Imām of Jarḥ wa Taʿdīl" (The Humility of a Scholar)

Question: In our city, there a few youth who have rallied around the term "al-Ṣaʿāfiqah", they seek to gather innocent Muslims around this slogan and even create a muṣāfiqah-centric centre, can you explain what the scholars have said about it?

What Is This Term, "Al-Ṣaʿāfiqah"? - Abū Ḥakīm Bilāl Davis

Some of the people claim saying, "we should encourage the students to seek knowledge but we shouldn't speak about the issues of refutation, misguidance and deviation…when we encourage them to seek knowledge then they will be able to determine this (falsehood)." 

This doubt is prevalent today, used by those who know that the Salafī will not accept the idea of being silent about ahl al-bidʿah outright; so smartly, the unscrupulous one tries to convince them that we can simply spread knowledge and the falsehood will become clear (a ploy to prevent the dissemination of knowledge-based refutation). 

Shaykh ʿʿUbayd al-Jābirī answers this doubt clearly. Narrated by Abū ʿIyāḍ Amjad Rafīq. Excerpted from The Crime of Tamyee' upon the Salafī Manhaj

We Should Spread Knowledge But Not Speak About Refutation - Abū ʿIyāḍ
