"They have a Lord Who will hold them accountable. So stay in your lane and mind your business." ~Abu Mussab Wajdi Akkari Taken from: 🎧Al-Aqeedatul-Waasitiyyah | 28 Allaah's Will and Intent 🎧 https://youtu.be/Smj6ZrgeZNY **************************************** On the authority of Ibn `Abbâs رضي الله عنهما that he said that the Prophet صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم said: ⭐️“He who disapproves of something done by his ruler should be patient, for whoever deviates from the ruler even as little as a span will die as (if he were of) those who died in the pre-Islamic period [of ignorance]”.⭐️ Narrated by Al-Bukhâri and Muslim. **************************************** Is it permissible to openly criticize the Muslim ruler in front of a gathering and the people? Answer: We have spoken about this issue many times before! ⭐️It is not permissible to speak about the rulers because this brings about evil and differing in the society and it splits the unity of the Muslims and causes hatred between the ruler and the ruled.⭐️ And this splitting and evil lead to rebellion against the ruler and the shedding of blood and matters which have blameworthy consequences. So if you have a comment about them, take it to the ruler secretly by visiting him, if possible, or by writing to him or by informing someone who can convey it to the ruler as sincere advice to him, and it should be done secretly not openly and this has been mentioned in the hadeeth, 👉“Whoever wishes to advise the ruler, then let him not mention it in public, rather let him take the ruler by his hand. So if he listens then that is that, and if not then he has fulfilled that which was upon him.”👈 And this meaning has been reported from the Messenger of Allaah (salla'Allaahu 'alayhi wa sallam). Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan (hafidhahullaah) Al-Ijaabaat al-Muhimmah fee Mashaakil il-Mudlahimmahý by Muhammad bin Fahad al-Husayn **************************************** Hudhayfa ibn al-Yaman reported: I asked, “O Messenger of Allaah, we were living in an evil time and Allaah brought us good in which we live now. Will there be evil after this good?” The Messenger of Allaah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Yes.” I said, “And any good after this evil?” The Prophet said, “Yes.” I said, “And any evil after this good?” The Prophet said, “Yes.” I said, “How will it be?” The Prophet said, “Rulers after me will come who do not follow my guidance and my Sunnah. Some of their men will have the hearts of devils in a human body.” I said, “O Messenger of Allaah, what should I do if I live to see that time?” The Prophet said, ⭐️“You should listen and obey them, even if the ruler strikes your back and takes your wealth, even still, listen and obey.”⭐️ Source: Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1847 **************************************** Abul-Ḥārith Aḥmad b. Muḥammad Al-Ṣā`igh, the close and respected friend of Imām Aḥmad, reports: I asked Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imām Aḥmad) about something that had occurred in Baghdād, and [because of which] some people were considering revolting [against the ruler]. I said, “O Abū ‘Abdillāh, what do you say about taking part in the revolt with these people?” He decried it and started saying, “Subḥānallāh! The blood [of the people], the blood [of the people]! I do not believe in this and I do not tell others to do it. ⭐️For us to suffer our situation in patience is better than the fitnah (tribulation) in which blood is spilled, property is taken, and the prohibited are violated (e.g. the honor of women).⭐️ Do you not know what happened to the people (in the days of the previous fitnah)?” I said, “And the people today, Abū ‘Abdillāh, are they not in fitnah [because of the ruler]?” He replied, “If so, it is a limited fitnah, but if the sword is raised, the fitnah will engulf everything and there will be no way to escape. ⭐️To suffer patiently this [current difficulty], where Allāh keeps your religion safe for you is better for you.” ⭐️ I saw him decry revolting
