    Advice To The Seekers (OP)


    Asalam alaikum to all my brothers and sisters in islam.

    There is something i've said on this forum many many times,and i will say it again today,hoping/praying that atleast 1 person might benefit from it.

    There are two types of knowledge :
    1 ) that which is accessible to allahs creatures.
    2 ) That which is not accessible to allahs creatures.

    Thus,to deny accessible knowledge is disbelief.

    And to claim inaccessible knowledge is disbelief.

    True faith is not established until accessibe knowledge is accepted and the pursuit of inaccessible knowledge is abandoned.

    Having said that,...how many members of this forum have learnt aqeedah?fiqh?etc...?

    I dont expect anyone to reply to that question.

    But what i am expecting is,for atleast some of you,to truly ask yourselves "What do i know about islam..?"

    Because there are alot of people out there that only know what their Shaykh has told them.

    And there are also alot of people out there that only know what their parents have told them over the years.

    Believe me,there is alot more to islam than what alot of us are being thought.

    I am not saying that our shaykhs and parents are misleading us,heck,i have alot of respect for the shaykhs out there,and for each and every single muslim/non-muslim parent.Bringing up a child in this time and age is a mission.

    What i am saying is,..it is our responsibility to go out there and Learn islam,dont sit around the house,being a slob,and expect the knowledge of islam to fall on your lap.

    Because,at the end of the day,it is our responsibility to seek the knowledge.

    Having said all that,..when will you guys/girls quit doing THIS , THIS , etc?

    Dont you think it is about time you get your religon inorder before you start questioning others?

    GO learn enough about islam before you decide to come online and preach to others.

    Seriously,alot of you guys/girls need to grow up,..alot.

    Please,do not take offence to any of that.

    I am simply a simple brother who is concerned about Your Deen.

    So please accept my nice slice of concise advice.

    I'll be on my way.

    Wa'salaam

    This is a big cliam akhi please don't go down this road, also remember how upset you were at allahuakbr.net if you accuse people or even hold such views against others arn't you doing the same thing they are, this is just gonna divide us more I don't agree with some shieks but I don't labell them "Scholars for Dollars" as some muslims do, we need to treat people the same why we wanna be treated, labelling people or a group extreme is harsh and should be avoided if you have any daleel or wanna show what they preach is wrong do it in a productive way but name-calling is below everyone.

    Sis,

    I find it quite baffling how the same people who band on about following the quran and sunnah of prophet muhammed always fail to display the Sunnah of the prophet.

    I find it to be more dangerous when someone that claims to follow the sunnah displays something else,compared to one that tells others to have Adab yet fails to display it all the time.

    I have said it before,and i will say it again,i recognise the fact that i lack adab. I am working on it.

    akhi,

    shukran for the advise.

    There is one thing i cannot deny,ever,..you are one of the view people i have 'met' online who never fails to display Adab.
    I,personally,lack adab alot of times,but i've accepted it many times,that i am working on it.
    I apoligise to anyone whom i have offended.

    akhi,

    What if i posted the article WITHOUT the name of Shaykh Nuh Ha Mim Keller?

    What is the problem with Shaykh Nuh Ha Mim Keller? is it the fact that he

    isn't your chosen shaykh? or the fact that the self righteous Bilal Phillips has labeled his a 'deviant'?

    For the love of God,try to ignore the fact that his Name was ontop of the article,it was the actual MESSAGE he was sending out that was important.

    So if you will give me permission,i will repost the ARTICLE without his name,is that ok with you?

    BTW,akhi,if i am wrong in saying so,please forgive me,but i am Assuming that you have something against Shaykh Nuh because of the Article that allahuakbr.net has on its website?

    If so,i suggest you do some research on the Shaykh. allahuakbr.net is very good at misleading people. Don't follow it blindly. Trust me,anything on that website is far from the truth. All that website does is,spread hate and Disunity.

    Ask yourself,what do you know about Shaykh Nuh?

    Re: Advice To The Seekers

    Akhi

    If you would have posted it, you would have have to had provided a source, therefore it is ineviteble that his name would have shown.

    It isnt the fact that he "isnt my shaykh". And no, I dont follow the "self righteous" Bilal Phillips. Ive read some of his books and even as a layman I can see many problems with his books, such as quoting and even recommending people such as Ibn Arabi.

    To also address the point, adab is important without a doubt. But adab is pointless if the message the person is giving is inauthentic and deviated.

    Nuh Ha Mim Keller may have adab but his message is inauthentic. He is spreading many false things. He is no doubt a deviated sufi. He is among those who deny Allah's Attributes. He belittles the Pious Predecesors. He considers people such as ibn Arabi as one of the greatest scholors when he nothing but a deviated philosopher. And the list goes on.

    Whilst in all of this he may have adab, but how can one learn from a person so deviated? How can one take Islamic Ilm from such a person?

    And just for the record, it isnt because of allahuakbar.net, though i consider that to be a very good website, Ive happened to have read his books and other articles he has written. There is no doubt in my mind that this man is preaching something other than Islam and taking Islam from him would be the worst thing any person can do.



    Ps- If sectarian talks come up, thread will be closed.

    Re: Advice To The Seekers

    Edit:

    akhi,...

    ..i've edited my post,there is no point in arguing about it. You are a Mod,you will have the last say. No matter what i say or what i do,you will still have your way. So i won't bother,it is hopeless.

    I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree on your view on Nuh Ha Mim Keller (aud'billah - i pray that ALlah swt will forgive you for labeling him a deviant sufi) and allahuakbar.net (i pray that allah swt will forgive the people who are running that website,a website full of hate which causes disunity).

    Lets leave it at that.
