The Advice of al-ʿAllāmah Rabīʿ (raḥimahullāh) on Unity, a lecture by Shaykh Abul-Hasan Malik al-Akhdar

• The importance of true unity

• Happiness is tied to our obedience to the Prophet ﷺ and following him sincerely: this is the only way the Ummah will be rectified

• Our focus should be to hold firmly to the rope of Allāh together and not be divided

• Matters of dispute would disappear if we returned them to the Book of Allāh and the Messenger

• The Salafi methodology is the truth and a blessing, and the people of innovation plot to stop its spread

• Division should be cut off at its roots, which are desires, fanaticism etc.

• The Salafīs cooperate with one another wherever they are

Lesson 4 of The SIx Fundamental Principles of Shaykhul Islam Mohammad ibn Abdul Wahhab by Ustadh  AbdulHakeem Mitchell  using the explanation of Shaikh Saleh bin Fawzan bin Abdullah al-Fawzann and Shaykh 'Abdullah Al-Bukhaari.

In this lesson ustadh covered "THE THIRD PRINCIPLE – HEARING AND OBEYING THOSE IN AUTHORITY"

Verily, from the completion of unity is hearing and obeying the one who has taken authority over us, even if it be an Abyssinian slave. So Allaah explained this with a clear, broad (general) and sufficient explanation , by way of many aspects of numerous types of explanation, both legislatively [in the Sharee ’ ah] , and in terms of [divine] decree [in what He willed to occur in the creation] . Then this foundation became unknown to many of those who claim knowledge, so how then could it be acted upon?

Lesson will be on every Tuesday at 8pm

Brothers & Sisters all welcome

al-Uṣūl as-Sittah (The Six Fundamental Principles) by Shaykh al-Islām Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhāb (raḥimahullāh), taught by Ustādh Abdul Hakeem Mitchell (hafidhahullāh)

• Recap of Principle 1: ikhlāṣ is tawḥīd, and knowing shirk in order to avoid it

• To understand something fully, you must know what opposes it

• Principle 2: unity in the religion and the prohibition of splitting

• Splitting into blameworthy parties comes from following desires and ignorance

• Ascribing oneself to the Salaf is not splitting; the split came from those who left the Straight Path

• Acting upon evidence, not merely upon hearing that a scholar said something
