Imaam ’Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Naasir as-Sa’dee - rahimahullaah – said: “So this is a knot which Allaah has bound the Believers together with, such that whenever a person is found possessing eemaan (faith) in Allaah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers and the last Day – whether in the eastern or western part of the world – then such a person becomes the brother of the Believers. This brotherhood obligates that the Believers should love for that person that which they love for themselves, and hate for that person that which they hate for themselves.
 Religious Brotherhood and its Benefits Part 1 Oh people! be fearful of Allah the Most High, and know that brotherhood in the religion outranks relational brotherhood. A Scholarly Example of Enjoining the Ties of Brotherhood A familiar characteristic with the Salaf of this Ummah is that of overlooking the faults or shortcomings of their brothers and enjoining the ties of brotherhood and upholding their unity despite what may have occurred by way of statement or action The Muslim Woman and Her Friends and Sisters in Islam The way in which the true Muslim woman relates to her friends and sister in Islam is different from the way in which other women conduct their social affairs. Her relationship with her sisters is based on ta'akhi (brotherhood or sisterhood) for the sake of Allah. The Position of Naseehah (Advice) in the Religion A Jumuah khutbah based around the hadeeth of at-Tameem ad-Daaree explaining the role of advice within the Muslim community, and benefits and lessons to be derived from that. The Manners of Companionship Know O pious brother – may Allaah make our affairs good – that the manners of companionship and good relationships are of various types.Gheebah (backbiting) is Prohibited) So gheebah (backbiting) is prohibited, the least of it and the greatest of it. Reconciling the Hearts The Muslim is the brother of another Muslim; he neither oppresses him, nor humiliates him, nor lies to him, nor holds him in contempt. And piety is right here – and he pointed to his chest three times. It is enough evil for a person to hold his brother Muslim in contempt. The whole of a Muslim for another Muslim is sacred; his blood, his property and his honour. |
