The Imām, The Example, The Scholar of Ḥadīth. Imām al-ʿĀjurī was known by these titles as described by Imām Al-Dhahabī illustrating the high standing of this illustrious Imām of Ahl al-Sunnah wa-al-Jamāʿah.
He was the Imām of the Haram in Makkah. He compiled a number of works and learned directly from a number of great scholars of the salaf including Ibn Abī Dāwūd, author of the famous poem “al-Haa’iyyah”.
The famous book (ash-Sharīʿah) authored by Imām al-ʿĀjurī is a comprehensive reference source for matters of ʿAqīdah and our brother Abū ʿAbdillāh give us a nice introductio…
Shaykh Zayd brings a number of benefits concerning the Book and the Sunnah from Imām al-Awzā’ī’s famous quote:
The virtues of the Qurʾān and the vigilance of the salaf concerning its role in their daily lives
The obligation upon the Muslims in regard to their interaction with the Qurʾān
The meaning of the term “Sunnah” and what it pertains to
The importance of holding to the Sunnah and turning away from Bidʿah and its people
Say (O Muḥammad, ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam): “O my people! Work according to your way, surely, I too am working (in my way), and you will come to know for which of us will be the (happy) end in the Hereafter. Certainly the Ẓālimūn (polytheists and wrongdoers, etc.) will not be successful.
[Sūrah-Anʿām, 6:135]
So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn away, then they are only in opposition. So Allāh will suffice you against them. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.

Verily, those who accuse chaste women who never even think of anything touching their chastity and are good believers, then they are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter, and for them will be a great torment on the Day when their tongues, hands and legs will testify against them as to what they used to do.
Al-ʿAllāmah Aḥmad ibn Yaḥyá al-Najmī[Q]: There is an individual at (my) job who is a Rāfidhī. Some of the workers informed me that he has explicitly accused the Mother of the Believers ‘Aa’ishah (raḍīyallahu ʿanhā) of fornication (and the refuge is with Allāh). Knowing that he …
The Rukūʿ of the Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) Shaykh Muḥammad ibn ʿUmar Bāzmūl Taken From the Book: Sharḥ Ṣifah Ṣalāt al-Nabī’ (Explanation of the Prophet’s Prayer Described) [currently being translated].
What is the description of the rukūʿ? The description of the rukūʿ is that the individual bends his back and places his hands upon his knees; his back is to be level to the point that if a person were to come with a hollow plate and place it upon his back it would remain in its place. So this indicates that the back is level.

Tawassul through the Prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) has a detailed explanation; if the (tawassul) is by means of following him, loving him, obeying his orders, abandoning his prohibitions, and having (utter) sincerity for Allāh in acts of worship, then this is Islām, and it is the religion of Allāh, that which He sent with His prophets, and (in fact) it is an obligation upon every sane being (of age).
Al-ʿAllāmah ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn ʿAbdullāh ibn Bāz[Q]: What is the ruling on Tawassul (seeking means) through the leader of the Prophets, and is there any proof for its pr…

Our brother Abū al-ʿAbbās Mūsá Richardson discusses this issue…From the lectures entitled, ʿAqīdah Course- Summer Course.
Then there succeeded them a posterity who have neglected the ṣalāh and have followed lusts, so they will be thrown in hell. Except those who repent and believe and work righteousness, such will enter Paradise and will not be wronged.
The prayer, dear reader is a very important pillar of Islām. In an authentic narration, the Prophet (ﷺ) told us that this very prayer will be the thing which we will be brought to account for firstly on the Day of Resurrection, saying: “If it is good then he will be successful, and if not will be a loser.”
There is an abundance of benefit in the prayer as Allā…
