Belief in Allaah(Part 1)
Based upon the works in Kitaab Usool ul Eemaan
Belief in Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, is one of the most
important of the foundations of Eemaan (belief, faith), and it is
the greatest of them in importance. It is the foundation of all the
foundations of faith, and its pillar and support. The rest of the
foundations of faith branch off from it, are based upon it and
return back to it.
Belief in Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic is to believe in His com-
plete singularity and uniqueness (wahdaaniyyah) in:
His ruboobiyyah (lordship over the creation),
His uloohiyyah (worthiness to be worshipped),
His asmaa was-sifaat (names and attributes).
Belief in Allaah is based upon these three foundations, rather the
upright [monotheistic] way of life that is Islaam has been called
"Tawheed" (Pure Monotheism) because it is based upon [the
truth of fact] that Allaah is unique, one, singled out in His domin-
ion (over the creation), His actions, not having any partner there-
in, and unique, one, singled out in His Essence, His Names and
His Attributes, there is no equal or peer for Him, and unique, one,
singled out in His worthiness of being worshipped, there is not
rival to Him (in His worthiness and right to be worshipped).
From the above it should be known that the Tawheed of the
Prophets and Messengers, such as Noah, Abraham, Moses,
Jesus and Muhammad (peace and salutations be upon them all)
is divided into three types:
Tawheed ar-Ruboobiyyah:
This is affirm that Allaah, the Most High, is the Lord (ar-Rabb) of
everything, its owner, its creator, its provider, sustainer. That He
gives life, takes life, that He grants all benefit and causes all
harm. That he is singled out in responding to calls of distress. All
of the affairs belong to Him, and return back to Him and all good-
ness is in His Hand. He does not have any partner in any of that.
Tawheed of Uloohiyyah:
This is to single out Allaah with meekness, submission, love,
humility, bowing, prostrating, sacrificing, making oath, and all of
the various types of worship. He has no partner or rival in His
worthiness and right to be worshipped with all the various forms
and types of worship.
Tawheed al-Asmaa was-Sifaat:
This is to single out Allaah, the Most High, with whatever He
named and described Himself with in His Book and upon the
tongue of His Prophet (alayhis salaam), and to absolve and puri-
fy Him of shortcomings, defects and likeness to the creation in
what relates to that which is unique to Him (of Names and

Attributes). Further to affirm that Allaah is all-knowing (al-Aleem)
of every single thing, that He is all-powerful (al-Qadeer) over
everthing, that he is the Ever-Living (al-Hayy), the Self-
Established upon which everything else is dependent (al-
Qayyum), who is not overtaken by neither sleep nor slumber. He
has the penetrative, effective, operative will (in His creation), and
far reaching wisdom (in all that He does, decrees and judges,
commands and prohibits). That He is all-Hearing (as-Samee')
and all-Seeing (al-Baseer), Compassionate (Ra'oof), Merciful
(Raheem). He has ascended over the Throne, and possesses all
of the dominion (of creation). He is the King, the Master (al-
Malik), the Most Pure, Holy (al-Quddoos), The Flawless, the
Source of Peace (as-Salaam), the Remover of Fear and Granter
of Tranquility (al-Mu'min), The Protecter (al-Muhaimin), The
Mighty (al-Azeez), the Compeller, Restorer (al-Jabbaar), the
Supremely Great (al-Mutakabbir), free and sublime is He of what
they associate with Him (of partners). And all the various other
Names and Attributes that He is described with in the Book and
the Sunnah.
There are many evidences for each of these aspects of Tawheed
in the Book and the Sunnah. The whole of the Qur'an, in its sub-
ject matter is regarding Tawheed and its rights, and its recom-
pense, and regarding Shirk (associationism), its people and their
recompense.
These three aspects of Tawheed have been pointed out by the
Scholars of Islaam, past and present, after a complete, detailed
in-depth study of the texts of the Book and the Sunnah, which
has led to the realization of the legislative reality that this is the
Tawheed (Monotheism) that has been requested from the ser-
vants, which is belief and faith in His uniqueness, singularity and
oneness in his Lordship (ruboobiyyah), His worthiness of being
worshipped (uloohiyyah) alone and in His Names and Attributes.
So whoever does not bring all of these affairs collectively, then
he has not actualized faith and is not a believer.
Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them,
so worship Him (Alone) and be constant and patient in His wor-
ship. Do you know of any who is a namesake to Him (meaning
one who deserves the like of His Name)? (Maryam 19:65)
So he we see Tawhid mentioned comprehensively, affirmation
that He is the Lord of the heavens and the Earth (Ruboobiyyah),
the command to worship Him alone and to be patient and stead-
fast upon that (Uloohiyyah), and the negation of there being any
namesake for Him (His uniqueness in His Names and Attributes),
and a namesake means one that deserves to have the same
name (on account of having the same qualities). So again, we
have the mention of Tawhid comprehensively. And then this is
found often in the Qur'an, and perhaps this is sufficient for our
purposes here.....(part 2 in issue 34 of The ARK insha’Allaah)

 Beware of Overeating
An explanation of a hadeeth on the adab of eating. A
look into the harms that can arise from overeating and
how it can effect a person’s religion and health.
Hadeeth #1476: On the authority of al-Miqdaam ibn
Ma'deekarib, radiyallaahu 'anhu, who said: The
Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
"No child of Aadam ever filled a vessel more destructive
than his stomach."1
Explanation:
In this hadeeth is a prohibition from eating to one's fill and
indulging excessively in the luxuries of the worldy-life. The
Messenger (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: "No child
of Aadam ever filled a vessel more destructive than his
stomach." That is because if he fills his stomach it will
harm him tremendously with regards to his religion and his
health.
With regards to his religion:
It will hinder him from the obedience of Allaah and cause
him to be sluggish concerning the performance of acts of
worship. It will also make him burdensome (upon him-
self) and inclined towards sleep. It will have a negative
effect upon his heart and afflict it with laziness, obscurity,
lack of attention and incompetence.
With regards to his health:
The doctors have mentioned that overeating inherits many
diseases. Likewise when a person always fills himself with
food it urges him to behave and act barbaric and arrogant-
ly. However if he is hungry then this will more likely prompt
him to behave humbly and passively.
If he reduces his intake of food and drink, this will motivate
him to be lenient and meek. On the other hand if he stuffs
himself, this will incite him to act viciously, recklessly,
haughty and cause him to chase after (his) evil desires.
Every time he desires something he goes, gets and eats
it. Nothing concerns him except his stomach and evil
desires. This is something reprehensible and it (overeat-
ing) brings about many chronic diseases. It could well
bring about a disease that could kill him; all due to
overeating.
Therefore, eating to one's fill is detrimental to a person’s
religion, worldly-life and health. The Prophet (sallallaahu
‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Sufficient for the son of Aadam
are some morsels to keep his back straight. But if it is a
must, then one-third for his food, one-third for his drink and
one-third for air.” [This is the rest of the hadeeth of al-
Miqdaam, radiyallaahu 'anhu]
3
The Shaykh continues: So if he were to fill his whole
stomach and not leave any space for drink nor air then
this is very harmful as the Messenger (sallallaahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam) said: "No child of Aadam ever filled a ves-
sel more destructive than his stomach."
Thus, it is incumbent upon an individual to take heed of
this prophetic moral and to not be excessive when it
comes to eating or his desires. In addition to this, if a per-
son reaches a point where he is extremely greedy
regarding food then it is likely that the halaal will not suf-
fice him, hence he will set out seeking the haraam so he
can fulfill his (evil) cravings.
So in filling one's stomach (i.e. eating to one's fill) there
are many harms and evils that stem from it. So it's a must
that one decreases his consumption of food even if he
desires it, as the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam)
said, place a third for (each) his food, drink and air. This
is what the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam)
advised us with (i.e. eating in this manner).

 How Allaah Ta’ala
Regards Disability
Shaykh Albaani was asked:
‘A woman went to the hospital and the doctors aborted
her four month old fetus, with the argument that the
woman had German Measles or measles and if we did
not abort it, it would have come out deformed or mentally
disabled; what is your opinion?
The Shaykh Answered:
‘I am asked a lot regarding the likes of this situation, and
we hold the opinion that you should not respond to these
doctors, since their silent expression says:
“We do not think it but as a conjecture, and we have
no firm convincing belief (therein).” [Al-Jathiyah: 32]
We have been informed from more than one source that
some women had been informed by some doctors the like
of this information [of aborting fetuses], but they did not
consent to aborting and to miscarrying, and the new-born
was delivered naturally, so this confirms that it is nothing
but as conjecture.
Also, every command is in the Hand of Allaah Tabarak wa
Ta’ala He has the command and He creates everything,
so it is not befitting that some doctors participate in the
likes of these matters, of which the reality is hidden from
all people. Perhaps some people research into some hid-
den matters more so than others, so it is not allowed to
look into the unknown future for all the people, and no-
one knows the unseen except Allaah Tabarak wa Ta’ala.
So a woman … perhaps gives birth to a fetus that is
deformed or similar to a deformed child, or like it is said
nowadays, that it is disabled etc. . . . so, in respect to us
being Muslims believing in Allaah Azza wa Jal and that
He is al-Hakeem (The All-Wise) and al-Aleem (The All-
Knowing) there is no fault in His creation. So this variance
which we generally see between human beings whether
it is in skin colour or in height or shortness in stature or in
being males or females, or in health and safety, or regard-
ing diseases and illness etc. then all of this is what al-
Azeez (The All-Mighty), al-Aleem (The All-Knowing) has
pre-destined. Because the Lord Azza wa Jal wants to
show His slaves that what they regard as good and ugly,
then all of that according to Allaah Azza wa Jal is good.
The way we look at the creation of Allaah Azza wa Jal is
not the way the Creator Himself, Tabarak wa Ta’ala views
things, because
4
“There is nothing like unto Him and He is the All-
knowing and All-Seeing.” [Shura:11]
At this opportunity it is necessary for me to mention a
hadeeth, which I regard as very great concerning this
topic and an answer to this question.
The Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) saw a man
from his Companions, walking wearing a long garment
and it was trailing below his ankles, so the Messenger
(sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said to him: ‘O so and so,
raise your garment since it is closer to piety and better to
remain cleaner.’
The man said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah I am bow-legged.’
The shaykh continues:
‘So this person lengthened his garment so that he could
cover up this deficiency as he had presumed, and he
apologized for this reason for having lengthened his gar-
ment so the Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam)
said to him: ‘O so and so – [the shaykh said: ‘and here is
the main point’ ] – ‘All of Allaah’s creation is good. All of
Allaah’s creation is good.’ [Saheeh: ‘Silsilah Saheehah’
1441]
So this is why, what we see with our human physical
eyes, has to be judged immediately that this is a deficient
sight. We see, as is mentioned in an old Arabic proverb:
‘Not past his rabbit like nose’ (tip of his nose). They used
to say of old, ‘so and so does not see past his rabbit like
nose’ (does not look further than the tip of his nose). As
for looking far ahead then no! In addition to this no matter
how far a human being can see, no matter how very far,
it is still a deficient sight.
This Companion from the Companions of the Messenger
(sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) saw himself as defective
due to being bow-legged and the disability which was in
his calves, so he covered it up by lengthening his gar-
ment. Because if he raised his garment slightly then some
of the disability would have become exposed, so the
Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) brought his atten-
tion to this. That what you see as a deficiency is not a
deficiency because Allaah is the One Who created you
like that, and this is not from your own doing. Just like
Allaah Azza wa Jal said:
“This is the creation of Allaah. So show Me that which
those (whom you worship), besides Him have creat-
ed.” [Luqman: 11]
Therefore this child, this fetus, if it is born naturally and it
was disabled or was afflicted with an illness which the
doctors previously had presumed, and then this is the Will
of Allaah which is the Destiny that Allaah made so that it
can be a lesson for healthy people. As it has been said:
‘Health is a crown placed upon the head of healthy peo-
ple which none can see except a person who is ill.’
There is also a very great, noble prophetic instruction,
which is: ‘Do not look at those above you but look at those
below you, since it is more befitting that you do not belit-
tle the blessings of Allaah upon you.’ [Saheeh Lighayrihi:
‘Saheeh Targheeb wa Tarheeb 2233]
did not send down a disease except that He sent down
the cure, whoever knew it, knew it and whoever was
ignorant of it, was ignorant of it.’ [Saheeh: ‘Silsilah
Saheehah’ 451]
Therefore, there is nothing to hinder seeking cure later
on, however there is a condition which needs to be
taken into consideration, which is, that this seeking cure
is due to a matter which the new-born is exposed to, i.e.
that it is not allowed to change the creation of Allaah
Azza wa Jal, because Allaah Azza wa Jal mentions
about the accursed Shaytan in the Noble Qur’aan, that
the Shaytaan challenged the will of the Lord of the
world’s Azza wa Jal in respect to Adam and his offspring
saying:
“I will order them to slit the ears of cattle, and
indeed I will order them to change the nature creat-
ed by Allaah.” [Nisa’:119]

So perhaps there is a person who has a beautiful form, So it is not allowed to change the creation of Allaah Azza
however there are people who look at themselves and wa Jal and this has examples, very many examples.
view themselves as ugly and they might say that this per-
son really is beautiful. So this is the variance in the cre- [Taken from the cassette collection ‘Silsilah al-Huda wa
ation and in beauty and it is the predestination of Allaah Noor’ No.634]
al-Azeez (The All-Mighty), al-Aleem (The All-Knowing) al-
Hakeem (The All-Wise).

So when Allaah created beauty He also created its oppo-

site, as we have said that it is created for an Infinite
Wisdom, we can express this with what has been said a
very long time ago: ‘Opposites clarify each other.’

If it was not for ugliness, beauty would not be known. If it

was not for illness, health would not be known. If it was
not for males there would not be females. If it was not for
females there would not be males. So all this creation
that we see, that Allaah created the people upon, it is from
the Wisdom of Allaah Azza wa Jal this is why it is not befit-
ting to conform to the opinions of doctors concerning mat-
ters which have not yet entered the sphere of life, and
when it comes into the sphere of life then comes the say-
ing of the Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam): ‘O
slaves of Allaah seek treatment, since indeed Allaah did
not send down a disease except that He sent down the
cure.’

This is the hadeeth of Usamah bin Shareek

(RadhiAllaahu anhu), it was also narrated by another
noble Companion and he is none other than Abdullaah
bin Mas’ood (RadhiAllaahu anhu) with an extra wording,
he said: ‘Seek cure O slaves of Allaah since indeed Allaah

THE SCHOLARS
Taking Pictures Using A Mobile Phoney
Question:
What is the ruling concerning taking pictures using a mobile
phone considering some people say that it is just capturing a
shadow and there is no prohibition in that, so what is the ruling
concerning that?
Answer:
For HIM there is no prohibition in that, as for the Sunnah and
the evidences then picture taking/making in general is Haraam
(prohibited) and the picture maker is cursed. And he will
receive from the most severest of punishments on the Day of
Judgment.
So what is it that takes the mobile phone out from this general-
ity? The Messenger made picture making Haraam without
exception by any means; (whether that be by way of ) a mobile
phone, a camera, by hand(sculpting) or by drawing, he made it
absolutely Haraam.
So who is he that makes an exception from what the messenger
sallallaahu alaihi wasallam said and attempts to redress the
messenger. Apart from that the Muhaqqiqeen (verifiers) from
the Scholars make an exception in the case of necessity, if a per-
son is in need of taking a picture for a necessity then it is
allowed due to this necessity due to His saying - the Most High:
“while He has explained to you in detail what is forbidden to
you, except under compulsion of necessity?”
[Surah al-'An'aam:119]
As for picture taking as a hobby or as a form of art by the use
of the camera or by hand or by any object then it is Haraam and
it is not allowed except in case of necessity only. In accordance
to the necessity it is a concession. It is a concession due to a
necessity only.

Naas) Monday 15 Shawwal 1427H.
Those who Refuse to Marry off Except to their Own
Tribe, or for Other than Deen
Question:
We have with us some desert people, they do not marry off
except within their own tribe. So what is your advice for them?
6
ANSWERED
Answer:
Our advice for them is that they marry off to those that are suit-
able, whether they are from their tribe or not, because of the
saying of Allaah the most high:
"O mankind! We have created you from a male and a female,
and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one
another. Verily, the most honourable of you with Allah is that
(believer) who has At-Taqwa [i.e. one of the Muttaqoon (pious
- see V.2:2). Verily, Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware."
[Surah: Al-Hujurat 49:13]
And his the Most High's saying:
"And it is He Who has created man from water, and has
appointed for him kindred by blood, and kindred by marriage.
And your Lord is Ever All-Powerful to do what He will."
[Surah: Al-Furqan 25:54]
And the saying of the Prophet, salla Allaahu 'alyhi wa sallam:
"All of you are from Adam and Adam is from soil" and other
proofs from that chapter that show that suitability is in the deen,
not in tribe, linage, money, hierarchy, diplomas, studies, profes-
sion or occupation.
Shaykh Yahyah Al-Hajooree
Listening to Songs after the Prayer
Question:
Sometimes I listen to songs directly after the prayer. For exam-
ple, I go for the prayer in the car and after the prayer I listen to
songs, so is my prayer accepted?
Answer:
As for your prayer then it is valid. However your listening to
songs is prohibited, so it is incumbent upon you, O brother, to
leave this thing. Rather listen to the Qur’aan or the news such
that you may be saved from this sin.

u s l i m
The Amazing Benefits of Coconut Oil As A Food
and Medicine
Coconut oil provides a quick and easy source of nutrition
without taxing the enzyme systems of the body. It also
improves the absorption of minerals, particularly calcium
and magnesium, and vitamins like B-vitamins and the fat
soluble vitamins, as well as some amino acids.
Coconut oil Aids weight loss
The medium-chain fatty acids in coconut oil are used by
the body to produce energy, not make body fat. Coconut
oil stimulates metabolism, increases energy, and
improves thyroid function, all which aid in reducing
unwanted body fat. For this reason, researchers have rec-
ommended the oil as a means to prevent and even treat
obesity.
Coconut oil is heart Healthy
This healing oil does not negatively affect blood choles-
terol, nor does it promote platelet stickiness that leads to
blood clot formation, and it does not collect in the arteries.
Coconut oil possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial,
and antioxidant properties, all which protect arteries from
atherosclerosis and from heart disease. Those people
around the world who consume the most coconut oil have
been found to have the lowest rates of heart disease.
Coconut oil Is A Powerful Healer
Coconut oil's medium-chain fatty acids possess powerful
antimicrobial properties that kill a variety of disease-caus-
ing bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites, but at the same
time they do not harm friendly gut bacteria or contribute to
antibiotic resistance. Because of its resistance to free-
radical formation and its ability to support the immune sys-
tem, coconut oil is useful in preventing or treating a wide
range of conditions, and new health benefits associated
with coconut oil are being discovered all the time.
How to Use coconut Oil To enjoy the benefits of
coconut oil:
Use coconut oil in your cooking - simply use it in place of
other oils, for frying and baking.
7
Eat coconut and coconut products as a regular part of
your diet - add a tablespoon or more of coconut oil to any
warm beverage like herbal tea, warm milk or even
warmed vegetable juice. Apply coconut oil directly onto
your skin and hair to absorb its healing benefits directly
into the body.
Fresh coconut
Another good way of adding this health-promoting oil to
the diet is by eating the flesh of the fruit or seed, or from
drinking coconut milk. Fresh coconut meat is about 33
percent oil, whilst dried coconut is also a good source of
coconut oil.
Coconut, both fresh and dried, is a good source of fiber,
which is needed for proper digestive function. Shredded,
dried coconut provides three to four times as much fiber
as the equivalent weight of most fruits and vegetables.
Coconut also contains as much protein as an equivalent
amount of green beans, carrots, and most other vegeta-
bles.
Dried and shredded coconut is the most common form of
coconut available in stores. The fat content and nutrition-
al content is about the same in both dried and fresh
coconut.
Coconut Milk
Coconut milk is not the liquid that is found inside the
coconut - this liquid is called "coconut water", which is
also a nutritious beverage. Coconut milk is a manufac-
tured product made from the flesh of the coconut. It is
made by mixing water with grated coconut, squeezing
and extracting the pulp, leaving only the liquid. It is a pure
white substance with a thick, creamy texture, and is avail-
able canned in food stores.
Coconut milk contains between 17 and 24 percent fat, so
it is a good source of coconut oil and has similar health
benefits. Coconut milk makes a good substitute for dairy
milk and cream, and can be used in both savory dishes
like soups, curries and sauces, and for desserts.
