Satanic whisperings about the truthfulness of Allaah
Please consider all the possibilities when you answer this answer. For a while now, the devil has infected me with this question, and it is making me uneasy.

Asking the dead to intercede with Allaah for the living is impermissible
I believe that going to the Prophet's grave or the grave of a righteous man and asking them to make dua to Allah for you is in innovation in the religion, However, on a forum I frequent, one person claimed that it is mentioned in Fath Al-Barithat the majority of the scholars say that the dead can hear the living, and that person also claims that the..

Eternal punishment for the disbelievers is part of the wisdom of Allaah
My question is the following: Why will Allaah burn the disbelievers eternaly if humans are unjust and have a finite life and knowledge and many built-in temptaions? I agree that some believed also, yet why not make the disbelievers rocks or any other non-living thing instead of burning them in fire "eternally". I do believe in punishing for a limited.. More

Satisfaction at the sentencing of a Muslim by man-made laws
Assalaamu alaykum. Is it disbelief if you feel some kind of satisfaction when a Muslim is sentenced by a taghut legislation? For example, somebody who you do not like is sentenced, or somebody whom you view as an extremist in the religion, or somebody who has commited a crime, or somebody whom you are envious. And would it also be disbelief if you had.. More

The story about a person who asked for food at the Prophet's grave is not authentic
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. Shaykh, is the following quote authentic? Apparently, it was quoted from Ibn Taymiyyah's work: A person came to the blessed grave of the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,and requested food from the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,and sat down. After a while, a Hashimi (a member.. More

Ruling on praising the religion or laws of non-Muslims
Assalamu alaykum. I read that praising the religion of the disbelievers is disbelief. What does that mean exactly? Are the following statements included in that:1. "The idea of democracy/communism is good by itself." (Meaning if you would view this matter irrespective of islam, but because it contradicts islam, you reject it.) 2. "Judaism is a good.. More

Dear shaykh, in a hadith, it says that Mohammad, salallahu alayhi wa salam, said, "You are Al-Dhahir and there is nothing above You, and You are Al-Batin and there is nothing underneath You." (Muslim) Is this hadith an argument that Allaah is not above his throne? What is the explanation of this hadith according to the earlier scholars of Ahlu Sunnah,.. More

Asking a mujaahid to intercede on the Day of Judgment
Assalamu alaykum. What is the ruling on asking a living person for intercession on the Day of Judgment? For example somebody says to a mujahid: If you die, then please make intercession for me with Allah (because the mujahid is allowed to make intercession). Would that be shirk (polytheism)? I heard a scholar say that it is shirk. May Allah reward you.

Faith comprises words, deeds and intentions
Assalamu Alaikum Shaykh. I am sending this question on behalf of some family members who state that they have a solid belief in Allah but who don't see a need or reason to follow all Quranic/Prophetic commandments. For example, they say that Islam is truly in their hearts and that they turn to Allah in gratitude and repentance with all humility, but.. More

Ruling on studying at the hands of non-Muslim teachers
I read a statement of Ibn Taymiyyah, and some people say that it shows that the so called marks in schools come under the same ruling. The statement is:
“And everyone who judged between [any] two people, then he is [considered] a qaadi (judge) irrespective of whether he is a person of war, or one commissioned into [any position of] office, or appointed.. More
