فَسَقَىٰ لَهُمَا ثُمَّ تَوَلَّىٰٓ إِلَى ٱلظِّلِّ فَقَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى لِمَآ أَنزَلْتَ إِلَىَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍۢ فَقِيرٌۭ ٢٤

The Religion For the Strangers

*There would be NO INNOVATION of this Occurred*

Surah Adh-Dhāriyāt (51:56)

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ

Translation:
And I (Allah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone).


If the Muslims understood these meanings, then there would be no bid‘ah (innovation).

He would not do anything except say: What is the proof? What is the origin for this?
If someone said, “Do this,” “Say this,” “Go here,” “Seek barakah (blessing) from this,” — he would respond by asking for the evidence.

If a person truly understood that barakah (blessing) has certain principles, and wilāyah (being a walī, a friend of Allah) has certain conditions, and he understood the concepts of ‘ibādah (worship) and its rulings and divisions, then the matter would become clear to him — no one could play with his mind.

So when we understand these rulings — the meanings of barriers, wilāyah, shurūt (conditions), and barakah — and when we understand ‘ibādah through its proper divisions,

تَجِدُ أَنَّ حَيَاتَهُ كُلَّهَا عُبُودِيَّةٌ
—you will find that his entire life becomes servitude (‘ubūdiyyah) to Allah.

Hadith

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: احْتَجَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا، فَأَقْبَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَأَخَذَهَا، فَقَالَ: يَا بِنْتَ أُمِّ رُومَانَ، أَتَرْفَعِينَ صَوْتَكِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟! فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَحْجُزُهُ، وَخَرَجَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُغْضَبًا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا خَرَجَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: "كَيْفَ رَأَيْتِنِي أَنْقَذْتُكِ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ؟" ثُمَّ جَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَاسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْهِ، فَوَجَدَهُمَا قَدِ اصْطَلَحَا، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَدْخِلَانِي فِي سِلْمِكُمَا كَمَا أَدْخَلْتُمَانِي فِي حَرْبِكُمَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: "قَدْ فَعَلْنَا، قَدْ فَعَلْنَا."

Translation

Narrated from Abdullah ibn az-Zubair, from his father: Abu Bakr came and sought permission to enter upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he heard A’ishah raising her voice over the voice of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So he entered and seized her and said: “O daughter of Umm Ruman! Do you raise your voice against the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to prevent him, and Abu Bakr went out angry. When Abu Bakr left, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said (to `A’ishah): “Do you see how I saved you from the man?” Then Abu Bakr came back after that, and asked permission to enter, and found that they had reconciled. So Abu Bakr said to them: “Include me in your peace as you included me in your war.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “We have done so, we have done so.”

Benefits from Shaykh Khalif and Shaykh Omaysan

The Prophet ﷺ tried to make `A’ishah feel happy and comforted after her father’s reaction.

One should not correct their wife in front of her relatives or family, as it can humiliate her.

Instead, a husband should show praise and appreciation for his wife in front of the family.

A believer should not dislike his believing wife — if one characteristic displeases him, there will be other characteristics that he is pleased with.
