<b>SEEK KNOWLEDGE</b>

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge. The inhabitants of the heavens and the Earth and (even) the fish in the deep waters will ask forgiveness for the learned man. The superiority of the learned over the devout is like that of the

moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The learned are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave (no monetary inheritance), they leave only knowledge, and he who takes it takes an abundant portion.

Sunan of Abu-Dawood, Hadith 1631

<b>THE PATH OF THE BELIEVERS</b>

Imaam Ibn Abee Jamrah said:

"Indeed the scholars have said regarding the statement

of Allaah:

".And follows other than the Path of the Believers, We

will turn him to what he has turned to." [surah

Nisaa 3:115]

that what is meant by it is the Companions, and the

first generation, because they themselves were the

first ones to encounter opposition to the sunnah. So

they cured it by the best of questions about what took

place in their souls due to some ambiguity. So he

(sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) answered them with the

best of answers, and explained to them with the most

complete of explanations. So they listened, and they

understood, and they acted, and they perfected, and

they memorized, and they mastered, and they believed.

So they have a tremendous virtue over us. It is

through them that we can connect our rope to the rope

of our leader, Muhammad (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa

sallam), and to the Rope of our Protector."

<b>GOOD MANNERS</b>

From Abee Hurayrah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) that the

Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:

"The most complete of the believers in faith (eemaan),

is the best of them in manners."

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen says:

"This hadeeth should always be in front of the eyes of

the believer. So the most complete of the believers in

faith (eemaan), is the best of them in manners with

Allaah, and with the servants of Allaah."

<b>SIGNS OF THE PEOPLE OF INNOVATIONS AND DESIRES</b>

Imaam Wakee' Ibnul Jarraah ar-Ra`oosee said:

"The people of knowledge write what is in their favour

and what is against them. However, the people of

desires (ahwaa) do not write anything except what is

in their favour."

Imaam Abee Haatim ar-Raazee said:

"A sign of the people of innovation is that they fight

the people of narrations (ahlul athar)."

<b>SINS DEADEN THE HEART</b>

Imaam at-Tirmidthee said:

"From Aboo Hurayrah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) that the

Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: 'When a

servant commits a sin, a black spot appears upon his

heart, so if he desists, seeks forgiveness and makes

repentance; then his heart is cleansed. And if he

returns (to the sin), it (the black spot) is increased

until it takes over the heart. And it is the filth

that Allaah mentions:

"But no! It is the covering of sins which is upon

their hearts because of what they used to do."

[sooratul-Mutaffifeen 83:14]'"
