1 Certainty and Reliance
Taught by Br Wajdi Akkari Commentary of Shaikh Ibn Uthaymeen Lesson 18

2 Verses Allah, the Exalted, says:
"And when the believers saw Al-Ahzab (the Confederates), they said: 'This is what Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad (ﷺ)) had promised us, and Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad (ﷺ)) had spoken the truth, and it only added to their Faith and to their submissiveness (to Allah)". (33:22) "Those (i.e., believers) unto whom the people (hypocrites) said, `Verily, the people (pagans) have gathered against you (a great army), therefore, fear them.' But it (only) increased them in Faith, and they said: `Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)'. So they returned with grace and bounty from Allah. No harm touched them; and they followed the good Pleasure of Allah. And Allah is the Owner of great bounty". (3:173,174) "And put your trust (O Muhammad (ﷺ)) in the Ever Living One Who dies not.'' (25:58) "And in Allah (Alone) let the believers, put their trust.'' (14:11) "... Then when you have taken a decision, put your trust in Allah...'' (3:159) "And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him". (65:3) "The believers are only those who, when Allah is mentioned, feel a fear in their hearts; and when His Verses (this Qur'an) are recited unto them, they (i.e., the Verses) increase their Faith; and they put their trust in their Rabb (Alone).'' (8:2)

3 Notes Sadaq Allahul adheem is an innovation
Argument with Christians - logically When Christians say God can be anything so why cant he be a man, Firstly, God is ever living, no beginning and no end Allah is able to do all things with a qualifying condition – that they are consistent with him being God and consistent with Allah’s wisdom If you say he became a man – he is no longer a God – therefore it is not possible If they say he was Crucified it is not God as God does not die

4 Hadith Ibn `Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them - when they and their father were believers) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "I was shown the past nations. I saw a Prophet who had a very small group (less than ten in total) with him, another Prophet who was accompanied by only one or two men and some did not have even one. Suddenly I was shown a huge crowd and I thought that they were my Ummah, but I was told: 'This is Musa (Moses) and his people, but look towards the other side.' I looked and beheld a great assemblage. I was told: 'These are your people and amongst them there are seventy thousand who shall enter Jannah without being taken to account or torment". Then the Prophet (ﷺ) stood up and went into his apartment, and the Companions began to guess who may be those people who would enter Jannah without any accounting or torment. Some said: "Probably, they are the ones who kept company with Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)". Others said: "Probably, they are the ones who have been born as Muslims and have never associated anyone with Allah in worship". Then Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out and asked, "What are you discussing?'' So they told him. He then said, "They are those who do not cauterise or ask anyone to cauterise them or seek Ruqyah (blowing over themselves after reciting the Qur'an or some prayers and supplications the Prophet (ﷺ) used to say), nor perceive omens (i.e., they are not pessimistic or superstitious) but keep trust in their Rabb (Allah).''

5 Hadith cont. On this 'Ukashah bin Mihsan stood up and asked: "Pray to Allah to make me one of them.'' The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You are one of them.'' Then another man stood up and asked the same thing. The Prophet (ﷺ) answered, "'Ukashah has surpassed you". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim] Ruqya if performed on oneself is fine, if other perform without you asking its also fine and you may still be of the 70,000 If you ask then it is not sinful – Aisha used to do it for the prophet when he was ill – however you will not be of the 70,000
