A house with out Dates

it was collected by Muslim in his Saheeh (#2046) and the authors of the Sunan (except an-Nasaa'ee) from the narration of 'Aa'ishah, who relayed that the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhe wa sallam) said:

يا عائشة بيت لا تمر فيه جياع أهله
"O 'Aa'ishah! A house without dates (shall have) hungry occupants."

Some scholars, like at-Tirmithee, understood it to establish the general recommended nature of dates and their superiority over other foods.

Other scholars, like Ibn al-'Arabee (perhaps the first explainer of Jaami' at-Tirmithee), understood it to be restricted to lands where dates are easily available and they are a common staple food. According to this understanding, lands where dates are not a staple food, this concept would apply to their specific staple foods, as a factual description of the people of that place.

A forgotten Sunnah >> al Qisd al Hindi/Bahri


Fath al Baaree (Volume 12)
Al Haafidh Ibn Hajar Al 'Asqalaanee


Abu Bakr ibn al ‘Arabee stated:

‘Qist (Costus) is of two types: Hindee (Indian) - which is black, and Bahree which is white. Al Qist al Hindee is hotter than al Bahree.”
Ummu Qays bint Mihsan said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah - صلى الله عليه وسلم - say:

“It is upon you to use ‘Al ‘Uood al Hindee’ [i.e. Qist/Costus], for indeed it contains seven cures; it is inhaled through the nostrils to relive throat aches/tonsillitis and placed in the sides of the mouth for the relief of Dhaat al Janb [1]”[Collected by Bukhaaree and Muslim.]

In another narration that will be explained after two chapters:

“I approached the Prophet - صلى الله عليه وسلم - with a son of mine while pressing his tonsils due to tonsillitis, so he said: “You should use al Qist al Hindee.” [Collected by Bukharee and Muslim.]

Al Imaam Ahmad and the authors of the Sunnan collected a Hadeeth on the authority of Jaabir that the Messenger of Allaah - صلى الله عليه وسلم – said:

“If a child is inflicted with tonsillitis or a headache, then let his mother take al Qist al Hindee, scrub it with water and let him inhale it as droplets through his nostrils.”

Proper Manner in Answering the Phone

Bismillah

What follows is beneficial knowledge from AshShaykh Al’Allaamah AlAlbaanee (rahimahullaah) transmitted by way of his student Saalih bin Taha Abu Islaam in his book entitled, (what translated means) Al’aqeedah first, if they but only knew (Vol 1, pgs. 16-17), wherein he (Abu Islaam) said,
“He called me rahimahullaah (meaning AshShaykh AlAlbaanee) one day by telephone, but I was not there. My young daughter, upon answering the telephone, said, “Assalaamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullaah”. The Shaykh asked for me and then said to her, “Inform your father that Muhammad Naasiriddeen AlAlbaanee called”. (He did not say ‘AshShaykh’ . . . and this is from his humbleness, may Allaah raise his rank in Aljannah)”.

How do you Want to be recorded as Today?

وعن أبِي الدَّردَاءِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَسَلَّمَ:

"مَنْ صَلَّى الضُّحَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَمْ يُكْتَبْ مِنَ الغَافِلِينَ وَمَنْ صَلَّى أَرْبَعاً كُتِبَ مِنَ العَابِدِينَ وَمَنْ صَلَّى سِتّاً كُفِىَ ذَلِكَ اليَوْمَ وَمَنْ صَلَّى ثَمَانِياً كَتَبَهُ اللهُ مِنَ القَانِتِينَ وَمَنْ صَلَّى ثِنْتَي عَشْرَةَ بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ بَيْتاً فِي الجِنَّةِ،وَمَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ إِلا لِلهِ مَنٌّ يَمُنُّ بِهِ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ وَصَدَقَةٌ،وَمَا مَنَّ اللهُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْ يُلْهِمَهُ ذِكْرُهُ"

ِAbu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“Whoever prays two rak’ah for Duha will not be recorded as being among the heedless. Whoever prays four rak’ah for Duha will be written as being a servant of Allah, and whoever prays six will be have earned enough for that day. Whoever prays eight rak’ah for Duha, Allah will record him as being among those who are obedient to Him.
