Shaykh Muhammad Baazmool said:
* "It is not from the Sunnah:
Rejoicing at the mistakes of your brothers,
vilifying them and then causing problems for them. Rather Allaah is Hayyiy
(One who does not like to expose the sins) and He is Sitteer (One who
Conceals) and He loves [for the sins of people] to be concealed.
Indeed Allaah is gentle and loves
gentleness in all the affair
Rather I fear that this will be from showing
delight [at the misfortune] of your brother
Did you not hear the wise
statement: “Do not show delight [at the sins] your brother, such that
Allaah has Mercy upon him and afflicts you.”
* It is not from the Sunnah:
Ghluww (exaggeration) in loving certain
personalities – whatever their status may be. Do you not see the Messenger
(sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) – and he is the Messenger – it is Islamically
legislated to love him, yet despite this he forbade from exaggerating [in his
love].
He (sal aallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Do
not praise me as the Christians praised the son of Maryam. Indeed, I am a
Worshipper of Allaah. So say, ‘the Worshipper of Allah and His Messenger.
Ibn Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him)
said, “the Messenger of Allaah said on the morning of al-Aqabah whilst he was
riding his animal:
Collect some small pebbles for me
So I collected small pebbles for him which
were like chickpeas and when I placed them in his palm, he said:
[Only use] the likes of these [when stoning
the Pillar of ‘Aqabah], O people. Beware of exaggerating in the religion.
Those who came before you were only destroyed due to exaggerating in the
religion. [2]
Ghuluww is to exaggerate in something and
being severe regarding it by exceeding its limits. From its meanings is going
too deep into something. [3]
… So the Hadeeth is clear in prohibiting
Ghuluww in the religion. The correct methodology of the religion and its path
is: tolerance, ease and leaving off harshness – within the boundaries that
are set by the Sharee’ah.
In the Hadeeth are other benefits: it
focuses on a very dangerous matter: Ghuluww in the religion is from the
causes of the destruction of the nations that came before us, so be moderate,
be moderate.
Also [from the benefits of this Hadeeth] is
the great importance of commanding [goodness] and forbidding [evil]. From the
greatness of both of these matters is leaving off Ghuluww regarding them.
* It is not from the Sunnah:
Using an approach of insults, disgrace and
curses in refutations.
Never was the Prophet (sal Allaahu alayhi wa
sallam) lewd, obscene or noisy in the market places
Allaah (the Blessed and Most High) said,
"{So by mercy from Allah , [O Muhammad], you were lenient with them. And
if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have
disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and
consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allah .
Indeed, Allah loves those who rely [upon Him]} [03:159]
* It is not from the Sunnah:
To have disregard for the people, to be
suspicious of them, cause trouble and harass them.
Rather the Muslim should possess the
characteristics of the ‘Slaves of the Merciful.’
He should not [put others down] in order to
seek revenge for himself if he is harassed or troubled by others. Allaah (the
Blessed and Most High) said,
{The servants of the Most Merciful are those
who walk upon the earth easily, and when the ignorant address them [harshly],
they say [words of] peace} [25:63]
* It is not from the Sunnah:
Insulting people’s lineage, being haughty by
using nicknames, broadcasting [people’s sins of] evil, being proud of being
correct, so it is said: So and So erred in this, and so and so is such.
Rather every Muslim should pay attention to
goodness and calling people to it, asking Allaah for Guidance, goodness and
being correct.
* It is not from the Manhaj of the Salaf:
That at every instance, comment and
situation you announce your love for a particular person from the Imaams of
the Sunnah.
We do not know this to be from their way.
Allaah is the One who give Tawfeeq.
* It is not from the Manhaj of the Salaf:
That you insult the People of Innovation and
the People of Falsehood in every instance and situation; that you vilify them
without any reason justifying it.
Rather the Sunnah is:
Whoever amongst you sees a person who has
been afflicted, then say: All praise is for Allaah who pardoned me from what
he tested you with, and preferred me over many of His creation.”
[One who says this] will not afflicted by
the same test. Even in this Du’a, you should not raise your voice [so
the one who has been afflicted] hears you. This Du’aa includes a test in
ones body and also ones creed.
