The Rejection of al-Jamāʿah al-Tablīgh’s Claim: Allāh is Everywhere
Shaykh Ḥammud al-Tuwayjirī [d. 1413 AH] said:
From among the greatest calamity of the creed of the tablīghiyyīn is their rejection of Allāh’s attribute of being the Most High. This belongs to the jahmī madh`hab who have rightly earned the label of disbelief (kufr) from many of the scholars from among the pious predecessors, and from whom they have declared themselves innocent.
Imām Ibn al-Qayyim said in ‘Al-Kāfiyah al-Shāfiyah: ‘Their [jahmī] disbelief is well established by fifty times ten from among the scholars of our domain. And Imām Al-Lālikāʾī has related this from them and before hi…

The Animosity of the Tablighis for the Scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah and Their Books
Shaykh Hammūd al-Tuwayjirī [d. 1413 AH] said:
Some of the scholars have mentioned that a man from among the students of knowledge in Madīnah went out with the jamāʿah al-tablīgh to Hanākiyah. The leader of this group was one of the heads of the jamāʿah al-tablīgh.
During the night, this student saw one of the [tablīghiyyīn] from India jumping whilst exclaiming ‘هُوَ هُوَ هُوَ [him, him, him]’1. So he [the student of knowledge] tried to stop him which caused [the tablīghī] to leave what he was doing and remain silent.
In the morning, the student of knowledge told the leader of the group wha…

The Blind Ignorance of al-Jamāʾah al-Tablīgh
Al-Shaykh Ḥammūd al-Tuwayjirī said [relating from Al-Shaykh Ṣayf al-Raḥmān ibn Aḥmad]:
“It is indeed a true statement that the Jews of this ummah are the Shīʿah, and that the Jews [of those who ascribe themselves to the] Sunnah are the ones who blindly copy and imitate [their religious leaders]. Especially the likes of the Tablīghiyyīn, who strive in the spread of ignorance, blind imitation, and worshipping of their leaders, glorifying them and being obedient to them. They spread bidʿah among the Muslims. They [try to] obligate upon Muslims that which Allāh has not made obligatory. They presc…

Al-Jamāʿah Al-Tablīgh: A Creed from the Creeds of the Ṣūfiyyah
Al-ʿAllāmah Ḥammūd al-Tuwayjirī [d. 1413 AH] said:
One of the representative duʿāt (callers) in Layth wrote a treatise by hand and sent it to me in Madīnah.
He said in this treatise: ‘The Jamāʿah al-Tablīgh learn this dīn upon the way of Ṣūfiyyah.’
He said: ‘Their creed is just another from the creeds of the Ṣūfiyyah. They interpret (There is nothing worshipped in truth except Allāh) to mean tawḥiḍ al-rubūbiyyah [i.e. there is no Creator, Sustainer, or Controller of Affairs except for Allāh]. They also falsely accuse the ṣaḥābah of being unaware of tawḥīd.’
Then he said: ‘I entered upon a…

The Thieves of the Daʿwah
Stated Allāh, the Mighty and Majestic,
Woe to Al-Mutaffifīn [those who give less in measure and weight (decrease the rights of others)],Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, demand full measure, And when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due. Think they not that they will be resurrected (for reckoning).
[Sūrah al-Mutaffifīn, 83:1-4]
The Prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam ) said, ‘Every Ummah has a fitnah (tribulation) and the fitnah of my ummah is money.’
The Prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam&…

The Dangers of Seeking Recognition from the Creation of Allāh
Imām ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Saʿdī (d. 1376 AH) said:
“From among the most beneficial ways of staving off stress and worry is to build the habit of never seeking any sort of praise or recognition except from Allāh. If you behave in servitude and goodness to an individual who has rights over you or even one who does not, know that in actuality this is a service you have put forth before Allāh. So pay no attention to whether gratitude is expressed by those individuals you showed goodness towards. As Allāh says concerning the choicest of His creation:
إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ لَا…

The Give and Take of a Good Relationship
Imām ʾAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Nāṣir al-Saʿdī (1376 AH) said:
“The saying of the Prophet [ﷺ] ‘Let no believing man revile his wife [a believing woman]. If he finds himself hating one of her qualities, he will indeed find himself loving another one [of her attributes]’, offers two major benefits:
The first is that it guides to the righteous way of dealing with one’s wife, close family, friends, workers, and whomsoever there exists any type of relationship or communication. It highlights that every person should fully and wholly prepare themselves for the fact that there must exist some type of f…
