So establish prayer for My remembrance

So establish prayer for My remembrance


[Qur'aan 20:14]



Ibn Hajar in his Fath al-bari (1989 ed. 11:251) relates Qadi Abu Bakr Ibn al-'Arabi's explanation that there is no good deed except with dhikr as a precondition for its validity, and whoever does not remember Allaah in his heart at the time of his sadaqa or fasting, for example, then his deed is incomplete. Therefore, dhikr is the best of deeds because of this.



Dhikr is, therefore, something of tremendous importance. Abu Hurayra said that the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said to him:


الدُّنيَا مَلعُونَةٌ ، مَلعُونٌ مَا فِيهَا ، إِلَّا ذِكرُ اللَّهِ ، وَمَا وَالَاهُ ، وَعَالِمٌ أَوَ مُتَعَلِّمٌ


"Lo! Indeed the world is cursed. What is in it is cursed, except for remembrance of Allah, what is conducive to that, the knowledgeable person and the learning person."


[Narrated by Tirmidhi Hadiith No. 2322 who said it is hasan]

^ How do muhaddisin explain the above hadith, bro...?

[ZeeshanParvez]

^ How do muhaddisin explain the above hadith, bro...?

Bro here is how Ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him and give him the highest grade of Paradise) explained it:


فاللعن هنا بمعنى الذم، يعني مذمومة الدنيا؛ لأن أكثر من فيها اشتغلوا بها عن الآخرة، وصدتهم عن الآخرة، بزخرفها وشهواتها، فهي مذمومة مذموم ما فيها، إلا ذكر الله -سبحانه وتعالى- بقراءة القرآن بالتسبيح والتهليل بما في القلوب من ذكر الله وتعظيمه وما والى ذلك من طاعة الله وترك معاصيه، فهذا ممدوح ليس بمذموم، وهكذا المؤمنون والمؤمنات فإنهم مما يلي ذكر الله لأنهم أهل ذكر لله، والقائمون بذكر الله، وهكذا العلماء والمتعلمون من خواص المؤمنين، فالمؤمنون والمسلمون والعلماء الشرعيون والمتعلمون للشرع كلهم خارجون من هذا الذم. فالدنيا مذمومة مذمومٌ ما فيها من مما يصد عن ذكر الله والدار الآخرة، أما ما كان يتعلق بذكر الله والدار الآخرة من طاعة الله ورسوله وترك المعاصي

The meaning of curse in this hadiith is censored [i.e. rebuked, blameworthy]. This is because most of which is in this world keeps one away from the life of the next world. Humans indulge in desires in this world. This is blameworthy and rebuked. The only thing not blameworthy in this world is the remembrance of Allaah such as reciting the Qur'aan and saying Subhaan Allaah and Laa ilaaha ilallaah and the dhikr in the heart of Him and remembrance of His magnificence. And all that leads to that and makes one obey Allaah and give up disobedience then all of this praiseworthy and not blameworthy....Likewise are the scholars and those who teach knowledge.....


لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ : أَخْزَاهُ وَأَبْعَدَهُ مِنَ الخَيْر

Allaah cursed him in Arabic literally means He removed him from all good

But bro we see several verses like ''yusabbihu lillahi ma fissamawati wa ma filardh'' etc which proves that everything which is between the earth and the skies is involved in tasbeeh then how they can be cursed....
