شروط لاإله إلا الله



(أرجوا توضيح شروط لا إله إلا الله (العلم واليقين ...الخ

______________________________

الحمد لله

:قال الشيخ حافظ الحكمي في منظومته سلم الوصول

العلم واليقين والقبـــــول ***** والانقيـاد فادر ما أقول
والصـدق والإخلاص والمحبة ***** وفقك الله لما أحبــــه


الشرط الأول : (العلم) بمعناها المراد منها نفياً وإثباتاً المنافي للجهل بذلك ، قال الله تعالى :"فاعلم أنه لاإله إلا الله" وقال تعالى : " إلا من شهد بالحق" أي بلا إله إلا الله" وهم يعلمون " بقلوبهم معنى ما نطقوا به بألسنتهم.
وفي الصحيح عن عثمان رضي الله عنه قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : "من مات وهو يعلم أنه لا إله إلا الله دخل الجنة".

الشرط الثاني (اليقين) بأن يكون قائلها مستيقناً بمدلول هذه الكلمة يقيناً جازماً ، فإن الإيمان لا يغني فيه إلا علم اليقين لا علم الظن ، فكيف إذا دخله الشك ، قال الله عز وجل: " إنما المؤمنون الذين آمنوا بالله ورسوله ثم لم يرتابوا وجاهدوا بأموالهم وأنفسهم في سبيل الله أولئك هم الصادقون" فاشترط في صدق إيمانهم بالله ورسوله كونهم لم يرتابوا ، أي لم يشكوا ، فأما المرتاب فهو من المنافقين. وفي الصحيح من حديث أبي هريرة قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : " أشهد ألا إله إلا الله وأني رسول الله ، لا يلقى الله بهما عبد غير شاك فيهما إلا دخل الجنة " وفي رواية لا يلقى الله بهما عبد غير شاك فيهما فيُحجب عن الجنة ". وفيه عنه رضي الله عنه من حديث طويل أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بعثه بنعليه فقال " من لقيت من وراء هذا الحائط يشهد أن لا إله إلا الله مستيقناً بها قلبه فبشره بالجنة " الحديث ، فاشترط في دخول قائلها الجنة أن يكون مستيقناً بها قلبه غير شاك فيها ، وإذا انتفى الشرط انتفى المشروط .

الشرط الثالث (القبول) لما اقتضته هذه الكلمة بقلبه ولسانه ، وقد قص الله عز وجل علينا من أنباء ما قد سبق من إنجاء من قَبِلها وانتقامه ممن ردها وأباها قال تعالى : ( احشروا الذين ظلموا وأزواجهم وما كانوا يعبدون من دون الله فاهدوهم إلى صراط الجحيم ، وقفوهم إنهم مسؤلون) إلى قوله ( إنهم كانوا إذا قيل لهم لا إله إلا الله يستكبرون ويقولون أئنا لتاركوا آلهتنا لشاعر مجنون) فجعل الله علة تعذيبهم وسببه هو استكبارهم عن قول لا إله إلا الله ، وتكذيبهم من جاء بها ، فلم ينفوا ما نفته ولم يثبتوا ما أثبتته ، بل قالوا إنكاراًً واستكباراً ( أجعل الآلهة إلهاً واحداً إن هذا لشيءٌ عجاب . وانطلق الملأ منهم أن امشوا واصبروا على ألهتكم إن هذا لشيءٌ يُراد . ما سمعنا بهذا في الملة الآخرة إن هذا إلا اختلاق ) فكذبهم الله عز وجل ورد ذلك عليهم على لسان رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال (بل جاء بالحق وصدق المرسلين) ... ثم قال في شأن من قبلها (إلا عباد الله المخلصين . أولئك لهم رزقٌ معلوم . فواكه وهم مكرمون . في جنات النعيم) وفي الصحيح عن أبي موسى رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : " مثل ما بعثني الله به من الهدى والعلم كمثل الغيث الكثير أصاب أرضاً فكان منها نقية قبلت الماء فأنبتت الكلأ والعشب الكثير . وأصاب منها طائفة أُخرى إنما هي قيعان لا تمسك ماءً ولا تُنبت كلأً ، فذلك مثل من فقه في دين الله ونفعه مابعثني الله به فعلم وعلّم ، ومثل من لم يرفع بذللك رأساً ولم يقبل هدى الله الذي أُرسلت به " .

الشرط الرابع (الانقياد) لما دلت عليه المنافي لترك ذلك ، قال الله عز وجل (ومن يُسلم وجهه لله وهو محسن فقد استمسك بالعروة الوثقى ) أي بلا إله إلا الله (وإلى الله عاقبة الأُمور) ومعنى يُسلم وجهه أي ينقاد ، وهو محسن موحد ، ومن لم يسلم وجهه إلى الله ولم يك محسناً فإنه لم يستمسك بالعروة الوثقى ، وهو المعني بقوله عز وجل بعد ذلك (ومن كفر فلا يحزنك كفره ، إلينا مرجعهم فننبؤهم بما عملوا) وفي حديث صحيح أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال " لا يُؤمن أحدكم حتى يكون هواه تبعاً لما جِئت به" وهذا هو تمام الانقياد وغايته .

والخامس (الصدق) فيها المنافي للكذب ، وهو أن يقولها صدقاً من قلبه يواطىء قلبه لسانه ، قال الله عز وجل (الم أحسب الناس أن يُتركوا أن يقولوا أمنا وهم لا يُفتنون . ولقد فتنا الذين من قبلهم فليعلمن الله الذين صدقوا وليعلمن الكاذبين) وقال في شأن المنافقين الذين قالوها كذباً (ومن الناس من يقول آمنا بالله وباليوم الآخر وما هم بمؤمنين. يخادعون الله والذين آمنوا وما يخدعون إلا أنفسهم وما يشعرون . في قلوبهم مرض فزادهم الله مرضا ولهم عذاب أليم بما كانوا يكذبون )

وفي الصحيحين من حديث معاذ بن جبل رضي لله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " ما من أحد يشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأن محمداً عبده ورسوله صدقاً من قلبه إلا حرمه الله على النار".

والسادس(الإخلاص) وهوتصفية العمل عن جميع شوائب الشرك قال تبارك وتعالى : ( ألا لله الدين الخالص) وقال (قل الله أعبد مخلصاً له ديني) وفي الصحيح عن أبي
هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : " أسعد الناس بشفاعتي من قال لا إله إلا الله خالصاً من قلبه أو نفسه " ...

والسابع (المحبة) لهذه الكلمه ولما اقتضته ودلت عليه ولأهلها العاملين بها الملتزمين لشروطها وبغض ما ناقض ذلك ، قال الله تعالى (ومن الناس من يتخذ من دون الله أنداداً يحبونهم كحب الله والذين آمنوا أشد حباً لله) فأخبر الله تعالى أن الذين آمنوا أشد حباً لله ؛ وذلك لأنهم لم يشركوا معه في محبته أحدا كما فعل مدعوا محبته من المشركين الذين اتخذوا من دونه أنداداً يحبونهم كحبه ،
وفي الصحيحين من حديث أنس قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : " لا يؤمن أحدكم حتى أكون أحب إليه من ولده ووالده والناس أجمعين " .

.والله أعلم ، وصلى الله على نبينا محمد

عن أبي يسار عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: “مَن قال أستغفر الله العظيم الذي لا إله إلا هو الحيَّ القيومَ وأتوب إليه غفر له وإن كان فر من الزحف “ . رواه الترمذي ( 3577 ) وأبو داود ( 1517 ). 5.

عن شداد بن أوس رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال “ سيد الاستغفار أن تقول: اللهم أنت ربي لا إله إلا أنت خلقتني وأنا عبدك وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ما استطعت أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت أبوء لك بنعمتك علي وأبوء لك بذنبي فاغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت “قال: ومن قالها من النهار موقنا بها فمات من يومه قبل أن يمسي فهو من أهل الجنة ومن قالها من الليل وهو موقن بها فمات قبل أن يصبح فهو من أهل الجنة. رواه البخاري ( 5947 ).

The Prophet, , when he said: "O Allah: You are my Lord. There is no God but You. You created me and I am Your servant. I am following Your covenant and promise to the best of my ability. I seek refuge in You from the evils that I have done. I profess to You Your bounties upon me and I confess my sins. Forgive me for no one forgives sins except You."

The Prophet, , says: "Whoever says this statement with certainty concerning it in the daytime and dies that day before the evening, he is one of the inhabitants of Paradise; and whoever says this statement with certainty concerning it during the night and dies that night before the morning, he is one of the inhabitants of Paradise."
[Al Bukhari]

Asserting the Greatness of the Qur'an

Allah the Exalted emphasizes the greatness of the Qur'an, its high status and of being worthy of making hearts humble and rent asunder upon hearing it, because of the true promises and sure threats that it contains,

[لَوْ أَنزَلْنَا هَـذَا الْقُرْءَانَ عَلَى جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيْتَهُ خَـشِعاً مُّتَصَدِّعاً مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ]

(Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rent asunder by the fear of Allah.) If this is the case with a mountain which is hard and huge, that if it was made able to comprehend and understand this Qur'an, will feel humble and crumble from fear of Allah the Exalted, then what about you -- O mankind Why do your hearts not feel softness and humbleness from the fear of Allah, even though you understand Allah's command and comprehend His Book. This is why Allah said,

[وَتِلْكَ الاٌّمْثَـلُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ]

(Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect.) There is a Hadith of the Mutawatir grade that states that the Messenger of Allah had someone make him a Minbar. Before that, he used to stand next to a tree trunk in the Masjid to deliver speeches. So, when the Minbar was made and placed in the Masjid, the Prophet came to deliver a speech and passed the tree trunk, headed towards the Minbar, the tree trunk started weeping, just like an infant. The tree trunk missed hearing the remembrance of Allah and the revelation that were being recited next to it. In one of the narrations for this Hadith, Al Hasan Al Basri said after narrating the Hadith, "You - mankind -- are more worthy to miss the Messenger of Allah than the tree trunk!'' Likewise, this honorable Aayah asks that if the solid mountains feel humble and are rent asunder from the fear of Allah, if it heard Allah's Speech and comprehended it, what about you -- O mankind -- who heard the Qur'an and understood it Allah the Exalted said in another Aayah,

[وَلَوْ أَنَّ قُرْآنًا سُيِّرَتْ بِهِ الْجِبَالُ أَوْ قُطِّعَتْ بِهِ الاٌّرْضُ أَوْ كُلِّمَ بِهِ الْمَوْتَى]

(And if there had been a Qur'an with which mountains could be moved, or the earth could be cloven asunder, or the dead could be made to speak.)(13:31) We mentioned the meaning of this Aayah as stating that, if there were a Qur'an that has these qualities, it would be this Qur'an. Allah the Exalted said in another Aayah,

[وَإِنَّ مِنَ الْحِجَارَةِ لَمَا يَتَفَجَّرُ مِنْهُ الأَنْهَـرُ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَشَّقَّقُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ الْمَآءُ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَهْبِطُ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ]

(And indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and indeed, there are of them (stones) which split asunder so that water flows from them, and indeed, there are of them which fall down for fear of Allah.) (2:74)

((إن أول بيت وضع للناس للذي ببكة مباركا و هدى للعالمين))
سـورة آل عـمران ٩٦

The Ka3bah is the First House of Worship

Allah said,


[إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ]

(Verily, the first House appointed for mankind) for all people, for their acts of worship and religious rituals. They go around the House [in Tawaf], pray in its vicinity and remain in its area in I`tikaf.

[لَلَّذِى بِبَكَّةَ]

(was that at Bakkah,) meaning, the Ka`bah that was built by Ibrahim Al-Khalil, whose religion the Jews and Christians claim they follow. However, they do not perform Hajj to the house that Ibrahim built by Allah's command, and to which he invited the people to perform Hajj. Allah said next,

[مُبَارَكاً]

(full of blessing), sanctified,

[وَهُدًى لِّلْعَـلَمِينَ]

(and a guidance for Al`Alamin.)

Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Dharr said; "I said, `O Allah's Messenger! Which Masjid was the first to be built on the surface of the earth' He said, `Al-Masjid Al-Haram (in Makkah).' I said, `Which was built next' He replied `Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa (in Jerusalem).' I said, `What was the period of time between building the two' He said, `Forty years.' He added,


«ثُمَّ حَيْثُ أَدْرَكْتَ الصَّلَاةَ فَصَلِّ، فَكُلُّهَا مَسْجِد»

(Wherever (you may be, and) the prayer becomes due, perform the prayer there, for the whole earth was made a Masjid.)'' Al-Bukhari and Muslim also collected this Hadith.

The Names of Makkah, Such As Bakkah

Allah said,


[لَلَّذِى بِبَكَّةَ]

(was that at Bakkah), where Bakkah is one of the names of Makkah. Bakkah means, `it brings Buka' (crying, weeping) to the tyrants and arrogant, meaning they cry and become humble in its vicinity. It was also said that Makkah was called Bakkah because people do Buka next to it, meaning they gather around it. There are many names for Makkah, such as Bakkah, Al-Bayt Al-`Atiq (the Ancient House), Al-Bayt Al-Haram (the Sacred House), Al-Balad Al-Amin (the City of Safety) and Al-Ma'mun (Security). Makkah's names include Umm Rahm (Mother of Mercy), Umm Al-Qura (Mother of the Towns), Salah, [as well as others].

Man's Best Kept Secret: Revealed

By: Aaron Greenwich, 17, e-mail address unknown

I'm real mad. Because ever since March 3rd 1998, I've been searching for a point in my life. That day in March, I went to this party..you know, one of those parties with high power music rockin the house, plenty of booze and endless variations of drugs, and plenty of (well, to put it mildly) shameless girls and drunk boys equals? So I guess I smoked too many joints, and I ended up in the hospital for three weeks. That gave me time to think over life.

Okay, we are born, grow older, wiser, and each of us develops our own personalities for better or worse. We all try to reach the top of the world and either we do or we spend our lives trying to. Basically we live to have more, always. Don't u see? You wake up, get dressed make yourself look good, go to school come back do your homework, have some fun and to sleep. And it never changes. All right, then u graduate and go to work or raise some kids.

But it keeps repeating. U know that saying, "History repeats itself?" It does, but then we die. Now for some reason humans spend so much time pondering over every single atom on earth except death.

I know it scares them. Why wouldn't it? It happens to everyone and no one knows why. Well, MOST people don't know why. But I do. You think all those d*** cruel people who lived on this earth (I can name millions) will get away with everything they did? And those few good will go un-rewarded?

So anyway we die. We leave behind everything. EVERYTHING. You think that the Porsche u spent your whole life trying to get is going with u? The only things that're going with u are your burial clothes and coffin, if that even. And there is one other thing, but it's unseen. Your deeds. ALLLL the things u did in this life, good and bad, go with you. And so we're in the grave. What happens to you in the grave is another story but basically your body rots. I mean your "this life" body. The body that we had for (if we are lucky) 80 years is gone and with it our doings!

Alright so you're out of the picture. Gone. Then, fellow Americans, if we are not here to live life like a party....whats the point? WHY DO WE LIVE?

Why do so many people commit suicide? Because they never had the answer to the above question. Some people know. Some. And its man's best kept secret.

I know what your thinking. "Oh god he's gonna preach us on religion." Not exactly ;)

It's a WAY OF LIFE, and what if I told u its called ISLAM? I'm Christian. But Christianty is a RELIGION not a WAY OF LIFE. 80% of Americans are "Christians", but sad to say, look at them. Homosexuality, suicide, drugs, adultery, even among their own preachers is common. I should know.

The old pastor at my church got kicked out for molesting a child. I'm not attacking anyone. I'm saying the facts. Besides that, it doesn't make sense. Neither do the other million "religions" found on this earth. They all claim to be simple religions, usually claiming belief in one god.

But they are lacking in on truth, the facts.

Alright, Aaron get on to your point. Sure. What was my 1st sentence? I'm real mad. Why? Cause everyone knows about Islam. And they ignore it, hide it. Why did I learn everything in school except Islam? From Greek God sh** to Buddha.

If u read one verse of Islam's book you will believe me. Guaranteed. Because it is the Truth. And its man's best-kept secret. They hide it because it reminds them of the TRUE PURE REAL point of life....They want us to be just like them, monsters in disgiuse, filthy, do every sin under the sun and call it a "life". I will not fall again into that trap most of us fell into. I have a life. I have Islam.

I'm sorry Jean, Dad and mostly Gramps, a pious Christian who tried to change my views. Im stepping down from my old way of life AND my old religion. I started this letter as a Christian but I end it as a Muslim.

"I bear witness that there is no God worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is the last messenger."

Always,
Aaron

جزاء المؤمنين والمؤمنات في الآخرة



44:51. Verily! The Muttaqun, will be in place of Security(Paradise).

44:52. Among Gardens and Springs;

What is their situation like?

44:53. Dressed in fine silk and (also) in thick silk, facing each other,

44:54. So (it will be), and We shall marry them to Houris (female fair ones) with wide, lovely eyes

Some of the sisters ask: don’t we have 7ooral 3ayn in Paradise?

Ali ibn Abi Taalib, radiallahu 3anh, says: Verily, the righteous woman (of this world) in Paradise will be more beautiful than 70.000 Hooris. And know (O sister) that on the day of Judgment if Allah has described them with beauty that has never before existed and unlike you, they do not get up for Qiyamul Layl, or fast, or be insulted/degraded for wearing the 7ijaab and be patient as you have done, and she hasn’t lowered her gaze as you have done. Whatever her situation was of trials, she hasn’t remained patient, for she has been created in Jannah. So how about you since Allah has heard your tears in the night and has seen your fast during the day and has heard your du3a and your tears and has seen the trials around you whilst you hold your Nafs. No doubt your situation is far greater than hers..

44:55. They will call therein for every kind of fruit in peace and security;

44:56. They will never taste death therein except the first death (of this world), and He will save them from the torment of the blazing Fire,

44:57. As a Bounty from your Lord! That will be the supreme success!

I ask Allah Ta3aala to make us all of those who are al Muttaqeen and to gather us also of those who are al Mutaqqeen as Saabiqeen now in jannaatin wa 3oyoon.

May Allahs peace and blessings be upon Mohammad

Intention to do good deeds

What should one's intention be while commiting a good deed? Should one commit a good deed for the sake of Allah and the Holy Prophet , should one commit his good deed for the sake of Allah and out of love of the Holy Prophet or his Sunnah, or should one commit a good deed for the sake of Allah alone?

Praise be to Allah.

When doing acts of worship, they should be done sincerely and purely for the sake of Allah alone, as Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And they were commanded not, but that they should worship Allah, and worship none but Him Alone (abstaining from ascribing partners to Him), and perform As Salaah (Iqaamat as Salaah) and give Zakaah, and that is the right religion”

[al Bayyinah:5]

“And who has (in mind) no favour from anyone to be paid back,

Except to seek the Countenance of his Lord, the Most High”


[al Layl:19-20]

And the Prophet (salla Allaho 3alaihi wasallam) said: “Allah does not accept any deed except that which is done only for Him and to seek His Countenance.”

Narrated by an Nasaa’i, 3140; classed as saheeh by al Albaani in aSilsilah aSaheehah, 52.

Think about what Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Would that they were contented with what Allah and His Messenger gave them and had said: “Allah is Sufficient for us. Allaah will give us of His Bounty, and so will His Messenger (from alms). We implore Allah (to enrich us)”

[at Tawbah:59]

Note how this verse ascribes the giving to Allah and His Messenger, and sufficiency to Allah alone. The verse does not say “Allah and His Messenger are sufficient for us”. And it describes the imploring as being to Allah alone, as He said, “We implore Allah”, and does not say “we implore Allaah and His Messenger.” This is like the verse in which Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“So when you have finished (your occupation), devote yourself for Allah’s worship.

And to your Lord (Alone) turn (all your) intentions and hopes”


[al Inshiraah:7-8]

See Zaad al Ma’aad, 1/36

So worship should be devoted to Allah alone; it is not permissible to do any act of worship with the intention of drawing closer to any created being.

With regard to loving the Prophet (salla Allaho 3alaihi wasallam), that means following him and venerating him, not by worshipping him.

Worship can only be acceptable to Allah if it meets two conditions:

1 – It is done sincerely for Allah alone

2 – It follows the Sunnah of Prophet (salla Allaho 3alaihi wasallam) and is in accordance with his sharee’ah.


These two conditions are indicated by the verse in which Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“So whoever hopes for the Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a partner in the worship of his Lord”

[al Kahf:110]

Ibn Katheer (ra7imahullah) said: “ ‘Let him work righteousness’ means, that which is in accordance with the laws of Allah. ‘And associate none as a partner in the worship of his Lord’ means, worship in which he seeks the Countenance of Allah alone, with no partner or associate.’ These are the basis of acceptable deeds: it must be sincerely for the sake of Allah alone, and correct according to the sharee’ah of the Messenger of Allah (salla Allaho 3alaihi wasallam).”

So when you worship you must seek the Countenance of Allaah alone, and strive to follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (salla Allaho 3alaihi wasallam). We ask Allah to help us to do righteous deeds.

And Allah knows best.
