⭐️[Praying in a Masjid 🕌 is Always Greater in Reward, Even When it is a Far Distance]

Imam Ibn Bāz (d. 1420 AH رحمه الله) said:

فَالْوَاجِبُ عَلَى الْمُكَلَّفِ أَنْ يَحْضرَ صَلَاةَ الْجَمَاعَةِ مَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فِي الْمَسَاجِدِ إِلَّا إِذَا كَانَ بَعِيدًا عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ لَا يَسْمَعُ النِّدَاءَ فَلَا حَرَجَ عَلَيْهِ، إِذَا كَانَ بَعِيدًا عَنْكَ الْمَسْجِدُ لَا تَسْمَعُ النِّدَاءَ فَلَا حَرَجَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ فِي الْبَيْتِ، وَإِنْ صَلَّيْتَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، وَلَوْ مَعَ الْمَشَقَّةِ كَانَ أَفْضَلَ، وَأَكْثَرَ ثَوَابًا، وَلَكِنْ لَا يَلْزَمُكَ إِذَا كَانَ بَعِيدًا، لَا تَسْمَعُ النِّدَاءَ بِالصَّوْتِ الْمُعْتَادِ لَا بِالْمُكَبِّرِ، أَمَّا الْمُكَبِّرُ فَقَدْ يُسْمَعُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، وَلَيْسَ كُلُّ أَحَدٍ يَسْتَطِيعُ الْمَشْيَ إِلَى مَا يُسْمَعُ.
“**It is obligatory for the morally accountable person to attend the congregational prayer with the Muslims in the masjid unless they are far from the masjid, unable to hear the call to prayer (adhan). In that case, there is no sin upon them if they pray at home. If the masjid is far from you, where you cannot hear the call to prayer, there is no harm in praying at home. However, if you pray in the masjid, even with difficulty, it is better and brings greater reward. But it is not obligatory if the masjid is far such that the call to prayer cannot be heard in its usual, unamplified voice. As for the use of loudspeakers, the sound may reach farther distances, but not everyone can walk to where the sound is heard.

فَالْحَاصِلُ: أَنَّهُ لَا يَلْزَمُكَ السَّعْيُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا كَانَ بَعِيدًا، لَا تَسْمَعُ النِّدَاءَ بِالصَّوْتِ الْمُعْتَادِ عِنْدَ خُلُوِّ الْأَصْوَاتِ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ سَعَيْتَ، وَصَبَرْتَ عَلَى الْمَشَقَّةِ كَانَ أَفْضَلَ، نَعَمْ.

In conclusion, it is not obligatory to strive to reach the masjid if it is far and the call to prayer, in its usual voice during quiet conditions, cannot be heard. However, if you make the effort and endure the hardship, it is better, indeed.”

🔥[Wisdom from the Salaf: The World Makes us Sick; We Must Heal Our Souls]

Sufyān ibn ʿUyaynah (رحمه الله) said:

عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ؛ قَالَ: قَالَ بعض الحكماء: وينبغي لِصَاحِبِ الدُّنْيَا أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الدُّنْيَا بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْمَرِيضِ الَّذِي لا بُدَّ لَهُ مِنْ قُوتٍ وَلا يُوَافِقُهُ كل الطعام، وبنبغي لِلْعَاقِلِ أَنْ يَكُونَ مِنْ ‌سِيَاسَةِ ‌نَفْسِهِ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الطَّبِيبِ مِنَ الْمَرِيضِ، يُدَاوِيهَا مُدَاوَاتَهُ، وَيَحْمِيهَا حِمْيَتَهُ، وَيَتَّقِي عِلَّتَهَا اتِّقَاءَهُ عِلَّتَهُ.

“A wise person said, ‘It is fitting for a person engrossed in worldly matters to be like a sick person in this world, requiring sustenance but unable to consume all types of food. It is fitting for an intelligent person to govern their soul as a doctor manages a patient—treating it with care, imposing the necessary dietary restrictions, and avoiding what might worsen its condition just as the doctor avoids what exacerbates the patient’s illness.’”

📚[Al-Majālisah wa Jawāhir al-ʿIlm, 2717 (6/328) by Ibn Qutaybah; Dar Ibn Hazm 1419 AH - 1998 CE]

Abū ʿAlī Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Yaʿqūb Miskawayh (d. 421 AH) said:

“The wise have likened someone who neglects to govern the rational part of their soul and allows the dominion of desire to overtake it to a man who possesses a precious red ruby of unparalleled value, exceeding even gold and silver in grandeur and rarity. He stands before a blazing fire and throws the ruby into its flames, reducing it to a useless shard of glass, thereby squandering its benefits.

We now understand that when the rational part of the soul recognizes its own nobility and senses its rank bestowed by Allah Almighty, it fulfills its stewardship by nurturing and governing its faculties with care. It uses the strength Allah has granted to elevate itself to the station of Allah's honor and to its rightful place of loftiness and dignity, without succumbing to the baser animalistic or predatory instincts.”

📚[Tahdhīb al-Akhlāq wa Taṭhīr al-Aʿrāq (p. 64)]

💎Muḥammad b. Bashīr al Ibrāhīmī (d. 1385 AH رحمه الله) said:

وَلَوْ أَنَّ فُقَهَاءَنَا أَخَذُوا الْفِقْهَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ، وَمِنَ السُّنَّةِ الْقَوْلِيَّةِ وَالْفِعْلِيَّةِ، وَمِنْ عَمَلِ السَّلَفِ، أَوْ مِنْ كُتُبِ الْعُلَمَاءِ الْمُسْتَقِلِّينَ الْمُسْتَدِلِّينَ الَّتِي تُقْرِنُ الْمَسَائِلَ بِأَدِلَّتِهَا، وَتُبَيِّنُ حِكْمَةَ الشَّارِعِ مِنْهَا، لَكَانَ فِقْهُهُمْ أَكْمَلَ، وَآثَارُهُ الْحَسَنَةُ فِي نُفُوسِهِمْ أَظْهَرَ، وَلَكَانَتْ سُلْطَتُهُمْ عَلَى الْمُسْتَفْتِينَ مِنَ الْعَامَّةِ أَمْتَنَ وَأَنْفَذَ، وَيَدُهُمْ فِي تَرْبِيَتِهِمْ وَتَرْوِيضِهِمْ عَلَى الِاسْتِقَامَةِ فِي الدِّينِ أَعْلَى.

"If our jurists had derived their fiqh (jurisprudence) directly from the Qur'an, the verbal and practical Sunnah, the actions of the Salaf, or from the works of independent scholars who deduced rulings by linking issues with their evidence and clarifying the wisdom of the Lawgiver in them, their jurisprudence would have been more complete, its positive effects on their souls more evident, their authority over the common people seeking legal opinions stronger and more effective, and their role in educating and guiding them toward uprightness in religion more elevated."

💎[No Ulterior Motives in Genuine Brotherhood].

Benefit: Abu Ja'far Al-Ṭaḥāwī (d. 321 AH رحمه الله) says in Sharḥ Mushkal al Athār (4599):

“On the authority of Abū Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) once went out to the cemetery and said:

" السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ، وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ، وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي رَأَيْتُ إِخْوَانَنَا “

‘Peace be upon you, O dwelling of believing people. And indeed, if Allah wills, we will join you. I wish I had seen our brothers.’

قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَلَسْنَا بِإِخْوَانِكَ، قَالَ: "بَلْ أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِي، وَإِخْوَانِي الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بَعْدُ، وَأَنَا فَرَطُهُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ”

The Companions said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, are we not your brothers?’ He replied, ‘No, you are my Companions, but my brothers are those who have not yet come. I will precede them at the basin (al-Ḥawḍ).’

Al-Ṭaḥāwī (رحمه الله) says:

فَتَأَمَّلْنَا هَذَيْنِ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ، فَوَجَدْنَا الْأُخُوَّةَ هِيَ ‌الْمُصَافَاةَ ‌الَّتِي ‌لَا ‌غِشَّ ‌فِيهَا، وَلَا بَاطِنَ لَهَا يُخَالِفُ ظَاهِرَهَا،

Reflecting on this ḥadīth (and the previous one), we find that brotherhood (ukhuwwah) is the state of pure sincerity (muṣāfa)—one free of deception, with no hidden motives that contradict its outward expression.

وَمِنْهَا قَوْلُ اللهِ عز وجل: {إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ} [الحجرات: 10] أَيْ: لِأَنَّ مَا بَيْنَهُمْ، وَمَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ لِبَعْضٍ، فَظَاهِرُهُ غَيْرُ مُخَالِفٍ لِبَاطِنِهِ،

Allah’s words reinforce this meaning: ‘Indeed, the believers are but brothers’ [Surat al-Ḥujurāt: 10], indicating that what exists between them and the commitments they uphold for one another are outwardly and inwardly consistent, without contradiction.”

💎[Mind Your Own Business!]

Shaykh Abdul Aziz Al-Salman (رحمه الله**) said:

وَمِنْ مَحَاسِنِ الدِّينِ الإِسْلَامِيِّ: أَنْ لَا يَتَدَخَّلَ الإِنْسَانُ فِيمَا لَا يَعْنِيهِ، وَهَذِهِ مِنْ جَوَامِعِ كَلِمِهِ ﷺَ كَمَا فِي الحَدِيثِ: “مِنْ حُسْنِ إِسْلَامِ المَرْءِ تَرْكُهُ مَا لَا يَعْنِيهِ”. أَخَذَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ وَصَاغَهُ بِعِبَارَةٍ (ابْحَثْ عَنْ عَمَلِكَ الخَاصِّ).

“Among the virtues of Islam is that a person does not interfere in what does not concern him. This is one of the concise, comprehensive sayings of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, as mentioned in the hadith: ‘Part of the excellence of a person’s Islam is leaving what does not concern him.’ Some have taken this and expressed it in the phrase: *‘Mind your own business.’

وَلَوْ تَتَبَّعَ المُسْلِمُونَ إِرْشَادَاتِ نَبِيِّهِمْ وَنَصَائِحَهُ ﷺَ لَاسْتَرَاحُوا وَأَرَاحُوا غَيْرَهُمْ، وَلَوْ تَتَبَّعْتَ أَكْثَرَ المَشَاكِلِ، وَالمُنَازَعَاتِ وَالمُخَاصَمَاتِ وَالمُجَادَلَاتِ لَوَجَدْتَ سَبَبَهَا الوَحِيدَ التَّدَخُّلَ فِيمَا لَا يَعْنِيهِ*

If Muslims adhered to the guidance and advice of their Prophet ﷺ, they would find peace and bring peace to others. If you were to trace most problems, disputes, conflicts, and arguments, you would find that their sole cause is interference in matters that do not concern one.”

?[7 Conditions in Poetry Form]

The noble scholar, Ḥāfiẓ b. Aḥmad al Ḥakamī (d. 1377 AH رحمه الله) said:

وَقَدْ حَوَتْهُ لَفْظَةُ الشَّهَادَهْ … فَهِيَ سَبِيلُ الْفَوْزِ وَالسَّعَادَهْ
The phrase of the testimony (Shahada) encompasses (monotheism) … It is the path to success and happiness.

مَنْ قَالَهَا مُعْتَقِدًا مَعْنَاهَا … وَكَانَ عَامِلًا بِمُقْتَضَاهَا
Whoever says it, believing in its meaning... and acts according to its implications,

فِي الْقَوْلِ وَالْفِعْلِ وَمَاتَ مُؤْمِنًا … يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْحَشْرِ نَاجٍ آمِنَا
In both word and deed, and dies as a believer... will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment safe and secure.

فَإِنَّ مَعْنَاهَا الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ … دَلَّتْ يَقِينًا وَهَدَتْ إِلَيْهِ
Its true meaning, to which it certainly points and guides,

أَنْ لَيْسَ بِالْحَقِّ إِلَهٌ يُعْبَدُ … إِلَا الْإِلَهُ الْوَاحِدُ الْمُنْفَرِدُ
is that there is no true deity worthy of worship... except the One God, the Unique,
بِالْخَلْقِ وَالرِّزْقِ وَبِالتَّدْبِيرِ … جَلَّ عَنِ الشَّرِيكِ وَالنَّظِيرِ
who is alone in creation, provision, and management... Exalted is He above having any partner or equal.

وَبِشُرُوطٍ سَبْعَةٍ قَدْ قُيِّدَتْ … وَفِي نُصُوصِ الْوَحْيِ حَقًّا وَرَدَتْ
And it is bound by seven conditions... that are truly mentioned in the texts of revelation.

فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَنْتَفِعْ قَائِلُهَا … بِالنُّطْقِ إِلَّا حَيْثُ يَسْتَكْمِلُهَا
For one who pronounces it will not benefit from it... unless they fulfill these conditions.

‌الْعِلْمُ ‌وَالْيَقِينُ ‌وَالْقَبُولُ … وَالِانْقِيَادُ فَادْرِ مَا أَقُولُ
Knowledge, certainty, and acceptance... and compliance—so understand what I say.

وَالصِّدْقُ وَالْإِخْلَاصُ وَالْمَحَبَّهْ … وَفَّقَكَ اللَّهُ لِمَا أَحَبَّهْ
And truthfulness, sincerity, and love... May Allah guide you to what He loves.
