I just remembered this story just now!!!

Ya Allah :giggling:

So we had a garden back in Yemen okay, and we had lots of bee hives in our back yard, like around 50.

So one day my father harvested some sidr honey from our hives....and sidr is like the Best honey in all of Yemen, and it's so delicious Masha'allah , and he also picked some corn and some broccoli from the garden.
Then he said to my brother " Run over to Sheikh Yahya's house and give it to him "
So my brother went to Sheikhs Yahya's house but he wasn't home so he just passed it on to his wife and told her " This is some sidr honey and some corn and broccoli, it's a vegetable from back home " (they dont have broccoli in Yemen)

So the next day my sister saw Sheikh Yahyas wife in the masjid and asked her " So how was the broccoli?" And she replied " The Sheikh didn't like it at all " So my sister said " Well how did you cook it? " And she said " I scraped all the green flowery looking stuff from the top and put it in the pot and then I threw the stalk away "

My sister was like LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :giggling: :giggling:

She just about threw the whole broccoli away!! No wonder the Sheikh didn't like it

Okay it's a very lame story I know but I just remembered it just now and it seemed so funny then

 

[umm-sulaim]

LOol maw.....aw mash Allah not lame at all...Allah ya7fadhik

you reminded me bout sh.Yahya hafidhahu Allah in ramadhan we invited him iftaar one time so the sheikh and the men sat in the guest room seperate from the other part of the house,
when they left we asked 'ammee did he like the food? he said yes especially the custard and he (sheikh) said yaaaa rabb you're samosa's are sooo big, after 2 you don't even need to eat anymore...
('masha Allah kubaaar ba3d thintayn ma ta7ataju ila mazeed')

another time we went to take a letter to the shiekhs house and the front part of his house ws being fixed....so we were told to go round the back, and we didn't know how to get in from the back of the house then iwe saw one of the shop owners daughters (dukan hassan lol) and i said 'ya bint wayn bayt asheikh, wheres the shiekhs house' she said hana hana and pointed to a door...and then as i knocked i heard bismillah udkhlu udkhlu..in the name of Allah enter enter.....it was the sheikh in his study...masha Allah he was sitting on the floor with what seemed like a sea of books around him, and he was looking down with the imaamah/turban covering his eyes...


wassalaam

Woooooww...masha Allah, from the beginning I knew you all guys will tell us some great stories . Masha Allah, I almost crying remembering sheikh Muqbil, as if I ever see him my self. Rahimahullah. And Syaikh Muqbil have three wifes in one house? :uuh: Wow...masha ALlah...thats hard.
And who have the stories with shuyukh Saudi? :?
And Umm Sulaim, you ever saw syaikh Ali Halabi? I remember when he came to Jakarta for the muhadharoh, what a great memory too . I was one of the even organization that time. There were syaikh Ali Al Halabi, he is the greatest student of syaikh Albani in ilmu hadith, and then syaikh Musa Alu Nashr, He is great in tafseer and ulumul quran, And syaikh Salim bin Ied Al Hilaly, he is very expert in deviate sects and history, and syaikh Mashur bin Hasan bin salman who is expert in Fiqh. But all of them expert in hadith of ocurse just syaikh Ali is the most alim I heard, Allahu A'lam. And they talked about the terorist attack and how a muslim should behave about this.
I also guarded them when they spoke in the masjid (Its masjid Istiqlal Jakarta Indonesia, the biggest masjid in south east Asia). And I had to be security too sometimes, cause thousands people came and lot of them were egnorance adn they just dont care about mixing with women. So I had to separate between men and women, and it should be strict.
And we gave the shuyukh some modern drinks, such as sprite and pepsi So the hizby of political parties can see "look...even the sheikh drink pepsi"...lol, cause you know right these political people say its haram to drink/eat somethings that made by non muslim. Its not right, cause in muamalah its still ok and the shuyukh drank it. And the speech were awesome, the sound of syaikh Ali so strong and heavy, and theyre all so fasiih in speaking arabic, masha Allah hafidhahumullah.
And when theyre about leaving to Jordan I had chance to come with the asatudhah to say goodbye to them in the hotel. Alhamdulillah, I have chance to shake their hands and hold them, and all what they said just "hayakallah, jazakallah khair ..etc" and all the dua. They full of smiles and very kind. And all are big men . Thats a lovely memories...I miss them masha Allah. If only I could speak arabic

And I remember when my friend, wanna make a video HOW to do hijamah (blood cupping) with sheikh Musa Alu Nashr. He is expert in medical healing too. And when he came to the masjid, he asked our ustadh wether the sheikh is resting and able to be interviewed. And ustadh told him taht the sheikh is resting now and may not be disturbed. And then my friend niii so naughty . He was like "I know sheikh Musa, I massaged him sometimes, and I often talk wit him" And he silently with his friend went to the sheikh room and knocked the door softly "yaa sheikh..yaa sheikh...you sleep already?". And the sheikh came out, and he didnt objection to be interviewed. And then he taught how to do the right hijamah. Masha Allah he is so expert and so steril in doing it. The video is made and sold now. Is great videos masha Allah. If someone interested can contact me insha Allah. And after that. the ustadh who forbid my friend to meet the sheikh upset when he knew they still wen to the sheikh, but in the end he told my friend "I must be the first person who have the video...share it ok" .
The shuyukh are so kind masha Allah

Ooh I remember when syaikh Asy Syuraim came to Indonesia, and he gave khutbah jumuah and lead the prayer, masha Allah his voice just so great, as if we were praying in masjidil haram Meccah. But whats is humuliatin was, right after the salah jumuah, and then the sheikh face the jamaah (Its sunnah right). And he read the dhikr, and then step by step these egnorants move forward to the sheikh, step by step, inch by inch . And the sheikh seemed lke he realized what would happen. He looked curious. And started by one man who walked forward to kiss his forehead, then thousands people following. And the sheikh straigh away ran to the stairs, and the jamaah ran after him. While the sheikh stepped on the stairs EVEN theres some men who was pulling his jubah :rant: Its so asshame. Cause in Indonesia, there are a lot of people who believe that the sheikh have barokah if they can kiss him, or have something from him. Even when they go to meccah they will cut the curtain of ka'bah and make it as Jimah Syirk. And some of them take the soil of Meccah. So silly
While the sheikh pulled I was just looked from far. I coldnt do anything, just I feel so asshame. And its happened too when sheikh As Sudais came to Indonesia, he was aftered by the crowd too . But when the students of syaikh Albani rahimahullah came to gove muhadharoh, we didnt let them to touch the shuyukh, and the security so tight alhamdulillah.
And on august, came sheikh Sulaiman, syaikh Ibrahim Ar Ruhaily, Syaikh Ibn Abdulmuhsin al Abbad from Medinah. Theyre all scholars of Saudi. And I couldnt make it to see them... . My ustadh said I can see them again next year...insha Allah

 

[BlissfullyJaded]

Wow, such sweet and lovely stories. :wub:

:happy: @ the broccoli. So cute. hehe

 

[i_m_tipu]

Iand we had lots of bee hives in our back yard, like around 50.

so Sheikh Muqbil said " Khayr Insha'allah, let me ask you a question, Where is your Anf (nose) ? "
My Brother was very confused because he had no idea what "Anf" was at that time and so he just took a random guess and pointed to his back , Needless to say the whole congregation began laughing, and the Sheikh said " Khalaas Khalaas, Give the Bunay a little time and he will soon speak Arabic perfectly "

hahahahhahahahahahha....................................


sis Mawaddah kool..

 

[umm-sulaim]

yeah bro dhul i saw sh. Halabee hafidhahu Allah, but it was a few years back.

I remember one time on the way to the masjid to pray maghrib, we saw sh.Yahya hafidhahu Allah and he had his horraas with him, i remember he said bismillah...then him and his gurads waited to let me pass i was like oh wow...

Also qadr Allah i didn't meet sh.Muqbil rahimahu Allah, but one day i went into his private library that he left for the sisters to use, i saw his wife umm shuaib, and she called me yaa..... ta3alay (come) so i did, and she said you always talk about wanting to see the sheikh , look here and she said haaa and she showed me a picture os sh.Muqbil, it was from a newspaper, but masha Allah he was sooo handsome, and i told her innahu hasan jidddan...then she said o' but this was when he was sick...masha Allah, Allah blessed him with beauty.

Also the sheikhah the daughter of sheikh muqbil hafidhaha Allah had made a little speech for the sisters on eid day, so we went to her to spend time with her, during this she began coughing so my freind got up and started patting her on the back...the sheikhah was like startled...then she started laughing...she said 3adatukum ghareebah (your traditiond are strange) lol, we don't pat anyone on the back if they cough, we just wait till they finish...and she started laughing some more....

wassalaam

 

[S_87]

I remember once i went to the shop for my mom, And i bumped right into sheikh yahya hafidhahullah. He was buying...aaah lemme see..eggs and tomatoes. I remmeber thinking "He's so pink!" lololol. He's really fair skinned and short too ;D.

:lol: you all nosey :giggling:

man im loving these stories! theyre all so cool. keep them coming inshaAllah! :happy:

 

[Mawaddah]

the sheikhah was like startled...then she started laughing...she said 3adatukum ghareebah (your traditiond are strange) lol, we don't pat anyone on the back if they cough, we just wait till they finish...and she started laughing some more....

^^ Awww Masha'allah :wub: she was surprised when you started patting her on the back? that's so sweet :giggling:

And yes Sheikh Muqbil had a lovely face, and he had a very kind fatherly look on him and Sheikh Yahya also is a handsome man!! and he looks very kind also Subhanallah :wub:..............Aaaah........talking about these Shuyukh of mine just fill me with fondness and love for them and their knowledge :'( May Allah bless them Ameen.....

I remember whenever Sheikh Yahya used to give the Eid Khutbah, He used to have his eldest daughter standing next to him, and I used to be like oh masha'allah that's so sweet....

And Sheikh Yahya had a truck, it was a white Toyota truck and he used to drive it to the Masjid everytime it was time to give classes. And so since there are so few cars in Dammaj,everyone wants to catch a ride with whoever has a car :giggling:. And my brother was so naughty, he would wait at the edge of a corner with his other friends to wait until Sheikh Yahya's truck pulled out and then they would run after it and hop on in the back, without even asking permission :rollseyes
So one day, I think the Sheikh realized that they were waiting for him, so he took off really really quickly!! and all the boys started yelling and speeding after the truck also, but after a little while the Sheikh stopped the truck and let the boys climb onto the back and then he called out to my Brother " Ya____ What would your father say if he knew you were jumping up on my truck all the time without permission? You're such a naughty boy you know? " And he was acting as if he was angry with my brother....but then the Sheikh relaxed and laughed and then patted my brother on the head and told him no problem, He can jump on his truck anytime, he'll just have to race and see if he can catch it first

 

[amirah_87]

There was once a man in pakistan who kept a dog and took his dog everywhere he went. A maulana heard about this and went to warn the brother that it is not appropriate to have a dog.
The brother who owned the dog then replied, "Maulana sahib I know what you mean, but there's a hadith of the prophet SAW that an angel won't enter the house where there is a dog or a picture".
The maulana replied "Then why do you have a dog!"
The brother replied "This way the angel of death won't come near me!"
But the maulana was not to be outwitted, he replied "The angel of death will come for your dog first, then you! "
