Re: Section on Books

Ansar,

In my opinion, such things don't require their own section, as a simple thread is sufficient. Im considering moving this thread to general chat, and it can be used to recommend books.

I see. So Ansar, what do you know about Dala'il Al-Khayrat?

 

[Ansar Al-'Adl]

Re: Section on Books


I wouldn't recommend it due to the errors in Aqeedah and unorthodox ideas, extreme 'sufi' doctrines.

 

[Uthman]

Aha! I knew there was something! My mum's gone crazy over it you see . . .

I wouldn't dare suggest anything of the sort to her

Re: Section on Books

i dotn reccomend book of tawheed by bilal philips - may allaah guide him

in that book he says that if a muslim cannot cannot stop an opressive ruler by hand , the very least he should do is make dua against him or soemthing along those lines. this is in clear oppostion to the way of the salaf. for example:

And al-Fudayl said, "If I had a supplication that would be answered, I would not make it except for the leader (imaam) because when the leader becomes righteous, the towns and servants become safe and secure."

Ibn al-Mubaarak said (in reference to the above saying of al-Fudayl), "O teacher of goodness, who would show boldness towards this besides you?"


found in shar us sunnah/explanation of the creed of imam al barbaharee (d.329H) SP publications
