With the Hadith

Trust in God's Victory

We greet you all, dear friends, everywhere, in a new episode of your program "With the Hadith," and we begin with the best greeting: peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.

Abu al-Rabi’ al-‘Ataki and Qutaiba bin Saeed both narrated to us from Hammad bin Zaid, and the wording is Qutaiba’s: Hammad narrated to us from Ayyub from Abi Qilaba from Abi Asma’ from Thawban, who said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: "God folded up the earth for me, and I saw its east and its west, and the dominion of my nation will reach what was folded up for me. I was given the two treasures, the red and the white, and I asked my Lord for my nation not to destroy it with a general famine and not to give power over them to an enemy other than themselves to violate their sanctity. My Lord said: O Muhammad, when I decree a decree, it cannot be reversed. I have granted you for your nation that I will not destroy them with a general famine and that I will not give power over them to an enemy other than themselves to violate their sanctity, even if those in its regions gather against them," or he said, "from between its regions, until some of them destroy others and some of them enslave others." (Narrated by Muslim)

Explanation of the Hadith

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (God has folded up the earth for me, and I saw its east and its west, and the dominion of my nation will reach what was folded up for me. I was given the two treasures, the red and the white). As for (folded), it means gathered, and this hadith contains obvious miracles, and all of them have occurred, praise be to God, as he, peace and blessings be upon him, reported.

The scholars said: The treasures meant are gold and silver, and what is meant are the treasures of Khosrau and Caesar, the kings of Iraq and the Levant. It contains an indication that the greatest extent of this nation’s dominion will be in the east and west, and that is what happened. As for the south and north, it is small compared to the east and west. May God’s prayers and peace be upon His truthful Messenger who does not speak from his own desire. It is only a revelation that is revealed.

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (To violate their sanctity) meaning their community and origin, and the sanctuary is also honor and dominion.

God Almighty said: (I have given you for your nation that I will not destroy them with a general famine) meaning that I will not destroy them with a drought that afflicts them all, but if a drought occurs, it will be in a small area compared to the rest of the Islamic countries.

Many hadiths have been narrated from the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, that herald victory and empowerment, including:

The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (This matter will reach as far as the night and day reach, and God will not leave a house of mud or hair but that God will enter this religion into it with the glory of the honorable or the humiliation of the humiliated, glory with which God glorifies Islam and humiliation with which God humiliates disbelief) Narrated by Ahmad in his Musnad

Abu Nadra, may God be pleased with him, said: We were with Jabir bin Abdullah, may God be pleased with him, and he said: It is likely that the people of Iraq will not have a qafiz or a dirham collected for them. We said: Where is that from? He said: The non-Arabs will prevent that. Then he said: It is likely that the people of the Levant will not have a dinar or a mudd collected for them. We said: Where is that from? He said: From the Romans. Then he was silent for a moment, then he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: (There will be a caliph in the latter part of my nation who will scoop up wealth and not count it) Narrated by Muslim.

There is evidence from the Holy Quran that heralds victory and empowerment for this religion and that it will have dominance in the end, including God Almighty’s saying (God has promised those who have believed among you and done righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession [to authority] upon the earth just as He granted it to those before them and that He will surely establish for them [therein] their religion which He has preferred for them and that He will surely substitute for them, after their fear, security, [for] they worship Me, not associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that - then those are the defiantly disobedient) (An-Nur: 55)

Yes, God’s promise is true, and our Messenger’s glad tidings are true, and what we are living through these days is what our noble Messenger foretold. Rather, things proceed according to destiny, and consequences proceed according to destiny, and God’s victory and empowerment are destiny, and we will see what our Lord has promised and what our Messenger has foretold, and it is only a matter of time and achieving the cause.

Dear friends, until we meet you with another prophetic hadith, we leave you in God's care,

And peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.

With the Hadith - Do you know who is bankrupt?

With the Hadith - Do you know who is bankrupt?

With the Hadith

Do you know who is bankrupt?

May Allah greet you, our dear listeners, listeners of the radio of the Central Media Office of Hizb ut-Tahrir. We meet you again with our program "With the Hadith," and the best way to start our episode is with the greeting of Islam, so peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.

It is mentioned in Musnad Ahmad - Remainder of the Musnad of the Prolific Narrators - that the bankrupt of my nation is the one who comes on the Day of Resurrection with fasting, prayer, and charity, but he comes having insulted this person, slandered this person, and consumed the wealth of this person.

Narrated 'Abd al-Rahman from Zuhair from al-'Ala' from his father from Abu Hurairah from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Do you know who is bankrupt?" They said: "The bankrupt among us, O Messenger of Allah, is the one who has no dirham or goods." He said: "Indeed, the bankrupt of my nation is the one who comes on the Day of Resurrection with fasting, prayer, and charity, but he comes having insulted this person, slandered this person, and consumed the wealth of this person. So he will sit, and this one will take from his good deeds, and that one will take from his good deeds, and if his good deeds are exhausted before he settles what is owed to him of sins, their sins will be taken and cast upon him, then he will be thrown into the Fire."

This hadith, like other important hadiths, must be understood and realized. Some people are bankrupt despite their prayers, fasting, and zakat, because they insulted this person, slandered this person, consumed the wealth of this person, shed the blood of this person, and beat this person.

His bankruptcy is that his good deeds, which are his capital, are taken and given to this one and used to pay off that one for the price of his slander, insult, and beating. After his good deeds are exhausted before he settles what is owed, their sins are taken and cast upon him, then he is thrown into the Fire.

When the Prophet, peace be upon him, asked his companions, "Do you know who is bankrupt?" "Do you know" means knowledge and awareness of the inner workings of things. "Do you know" means "Do you really know who is bankrupt?" This confirms the saying of our master Ali, may Allah honor his face: "Wealth and poverty are after the presentation to Allah." When they were asked this question, they answered based on their experiences: "The bankrupt among us is the one who has no dirham or goods." This is the bankrupt in the eyes of the companions of the Messenger of Allah. So he, peace and blessings be upon him, said: No... HE SAID: "INDEED, THE BANKRUPT OF MY NATION IS THE ONE WHO COMES ON THE DAY OF RESURRECTION WITH FASTING, PRAYER, AND CHARITY..."

This confirms the saying of our master Umar: "Whoever wishes may fast, and whoever wishes may pray, but it is righteousness," because prayer, fasting, Hajj, and zakat are acts of worship that a person may do with sincerity, or he may do them hypocritically, but the center of gravity is to adhere to the command of Allah.

We ask Allah to keep us steadfast on the truth, and make us of His righteous servants, and replace our bad deeds with good deeds, and not disgrace us on the Day of Presentation to Him, O Allah, Amen.

Our dear listeners, until we meet you with another prophetic hadith, we entrust you to Allah, whose deposits are never lost. Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.

With the Hadith - The Hypocrites and Their Evil Deeds

With the Hadith - The Hypocrites and Their Evil Deeds

With the Hadith

The Hypocrites and Their Evil Deeds

We greet you all, dear friends, everywhere, in a new episode of your program "With the Hadith," and we begin with the best greeting: Peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.

It was narrated from Buraidah, may God be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: "Do not call a hypocrite 'Sayyid' (master), for if he is a master, then you have angered your Lord, the Almighty and Sublime." Narrated by Abu Dawood with a Sahih (authentic) chain of narration.

Dear listeners,

Indeed, the best of speech is the word of God Almighty, and the best guidance is the guidance of His Prophet Muhammad bin Abdullah, peace and blessings be upon him. Now then,

This noble Hadith guides us on how to deal with the hypocrites we know. The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, was the only one who knew all the hypocrites by their names, but we can recognize some of them by their characteristics, such as those mentioned in the Quran who perform their obligatory duties lazily and grudgingly, and those who plot against Islam and Muslims, encourage strife, spread corruption on earth, and love to spread immorality by calling for it, protecting it, and nurturing it, and those who tell lies about Islam and Muslims... and others who are characterized by hypocrisy.

Therefore, we must understand what the Sharia (Islamic law) has deemed good and what it has deemed bad, so that we can distinguish the hypocrite from the sincere, and take appropriate action towards them. We should not trust those who do what contradicts the Sharia while pretending to do what they do out of concern for Islam and Muslims. We should not follow them or support them, or even less than that, by describing them as "Sayyid," otherwise God Almighty will be angry with us.

We Muslims must be the most keen people on Islam and Muslims, and not allow any hypocrite an entry point into our religion and our families, as they are among the most dangerous things we may face these days due to their abundance and the multiplicity of their faces. We must use the Sharia scale to measure the actions of those who claim to be Muslims, for Islam protects us from such evildoers.

We ask God to protect our nation from such criminals, and to guide us to the straight path and the correct scale by which we measure people's behavior, so that we stay away from those whom God does not love. Amen.

Dear friends, until we meet you with another prophetic Hadith, we leave you in God's care, and peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
