Worship and Jurisprudence

THE TYPES OF ZUHD

 

Al-Imaam Ahmad bin Hanbal said: Az-Zuhd is of three types:
The first: abandoning that which is haraam (forbidden) – and it is the zuhd of the general folk.

The second: abandoning the excesses of that which is halaal (lawful) – and it is the zuhd of the people of distinction.

The third: abandoning that which busies one from Allaah – and it is the zuhd of the acquainted ones.

Upon which person is the word "Sinner" applied to, with the meaning that you say (to someone) "You are a sinner"?

The word "Sinners" (`Usaat) is applied to those who disobey the Legislator (i.e. Allaah) and they persist upon that, without having any concern regarding it. And in Allaah lies success.

THE BOUNDARIES OF FEAR

Question:

What is the boundary of fear?
Answer:

Ibn Al-Qayyim said: I heard Shaikh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah say:
((The boundary of fear is what restrains you from committing sins to Allaah; so whatever is additional to that then it is not required.))

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AL-HAMD AND ASH-SHUKR


Question:

What is the difference between al-Hamd and ash-Shukr
Answer:

There are many differences between al-hamd and ash-shukr, however that which makes them exact is that al-hamd is praising with the tongue, and praising everything that is jameel (beautiful), and as for ash-shukr then it occurs with both the tongue and action.
