The Prophet ﷺ did not object to Abū Bakr giving away all of his wealth because of what he knew of his strength in yaqīn and soundness of tawakkul; thus, he was not afraid of fitnah for him, unlike oth
The point being: regret after undertaking a good deed may reduce a person’s reward, and in some cases may even nullify it.
The Prophet ﷺ said: “Take on only those deeds which you can bear, for Allāh does not grow weary until you grow weary.” [Bukhārī 43]
Therefore, one should not rush into making long-term decisions at the peak of their Īmān, as they may later regret them when their Īmān decreases—especially if…
Beware of Making Long-term Decisions at the Peak of Īmān
Īmān increases and decreases. It increases through good, righteous deeds and decreases through disobedience. This is one of the fundamental creeds of Ahlus-Sunnah.
Allāh ﷻ said:
﴿وَإِذَا مَاۤ أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةࣱ فَمِنۡهُم مَّن یَقُولُ أَیُّكُمۡ زَادَتۡهُ هَـٰذِهِۦۤ إِیمَـٰنࣰاۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ إِیمَـٰنࣰا وَهُمۡ…

The Great Virtues of the First Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah
Ibn Al-Jawzi rahimahullah said:
Know, may Allah have mercy on you, that these ten days are not like any other ten days, because they contain ten special virtues:
{❶} First: Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, swore by them when He said: “And by the ten nights.”
When Allah, the Most Great, swears by something, it shows its greatness and importance.
{❷} Second:…
And You Wonder Why Your Du'as Are Not Accepted
Question:
Some spouses who live in Denmark and some other western countries annul their contracts of their marriage at the Civil Office claiming irreconcilable differences with each other, though in truth there are no problems in the marriage. They only do so to get social support of a higher value, albeit they are not in need of such an increase. Is this permissible?…
Husband:
“I’m not feeling my wife anymore. Can I divorce her and move on?”
Sheikh:
“No. It is haram to divorce your wife without a valid reason. Here are 12 reasons why you have to keep her: https://t.me/Menzbenefits/408 ”
Among the righteous deeds to be done during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah is the Takbīr, and it is recommended to proclaim it aloud — even raising the voice with it.
What we notice among people today is that they post the Takbīr in their WhatsApp statuses, encouraging others to recite it, yet they themselves do not actually pronounce it in real life. This is a mistake.

Beware of philosophy, for it is the foundation of foolishness. If you want to be foolish, study it. This is the basis of folly. Philosophy is the foundation of foolishness.
And do not occupy yourself with scholastic theology (kalam). Do not read books that are deeply involved in this, for they will busy you and frustrate your mind, exhausting you, such as "Al-Mustasfa," "Al-Mahsul," and likewise "Irshad Al-Fuhul" is full of this — by Ash-Shawkani, may Allah have mercy on him, and he is strong in his editing, but it is full of this. "Al-Mustasfa" by Al-Ghazali, "Mahsul Al-Amidi." The…
From grammar, you take some sciences and some texts that become a means for you to understand those goals and become proficient in them.
From mustalah, you take some sciences, texts, and memorised materials to understand those goals in hadith, defects in hadith, and research. Research is important, as it is also part of hadith sciences and mustalah. With mustalah, you recognise hadith; it is a means for it. Hadith terminology and principles of hadith (usul al-hadith).

What does a beginner student of knowledge start with?
Sheikh Yahya Al-Hajoori hafidhahullah said:
This is an important question, especially from one who is a beginner. He says: What should the student of knowledge focus on in his studies: mustalah (terminology of hadith) or Arabic grammar? If he cannot combine both! And is it enough to study only one text?
The answer:
He must take care of handwriting, for he…

Sheikh Ibn Baz rahimahullah said:
As for saying “Allāhu Akbar” (takbīr) during Eid Al-Adha, it is prescribed from the beginning of the month until the end of the 13th day of Dhul-Hijjah. This is based on Allah’s words:
{لِيَشْهَدُوا مَنَافِعَ لَهُمْ وَيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللهِ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَعْلُومَاتٍ}
