 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يدى بدلى وياله من شراف عظيمي الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وشدوى الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل وشدوى النسيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد إن شاء الله تعالى today I will be doing the lecture of شيخو الاسلام ابنوتي ميرحمه الله in order to prepare this lecture I read 10 different books and the notes that I wrote are 513 pages and I won't be able in any way for more shape to go over all of that and inshallahه تعالى the books that have been written about شيخو الاسلام ابنوتي ميرحمه's life are categorized into 2 books which are تراجم which are مفردة books which are specifically written on his life and those are inshallahه تعالى the ones I'm going to mention the best of them is the kitab written by الحافظ محمد ابن أحمد ابن عبدالهادي المقدس رحمه الله he wrote a kitab called العقود الدرية في ذكري بعض ملاقب شيخ الاسلام ابنوتي ميرحمه ابن عبدالهادي رحمه الله he died when the year was 744 he lived only for 39 years and ابن عبدالهادي was the person that أبل حجاج المزي said that whenever ابن عبدالهادي would enter onto me whenever he would come in and meet me I أبل حجاج المزي would benefit from me if a person of great caliber in knowledge رحمه الله ابن عبدالهادي was from the students of شيخو الاسلام التهيمية and there's many books there's a kitab called الصاري ملمونكي في الردع على السوكي where he refused تقي الدينة السوكي 39 very young he was of the he was a pair of ابن كثير رحمه الله him and ابن كثير were students together and they used to study from أبل حجاج المزي الشيخو الاسلامي ابنوتي ميرحمه he wrote a book on the life of ابنوتي ميرحمه it's the best book written the second kitab is called الدورة اليتيمية في السيرات ابنوتي ميرحمه and it's written by الإمام الدهب رحمه الله الإمام الدهب is from the students of شيخو الاسلامي ابنوتي ميرحمه and he authored a book talking about the biography of ابنوتي ميرحمه الإمام الدهب is غنيه العلي التعريف he's very well-known there's no need to discuss who he is the third book that's specifically written on ابنوتي ميرحمه is life it's the kitab العلام العليه في مناقب شيخ الاسلام ابنوتي ميرحمه and it's written by أبي حافس عمر ابنو أبو حافس sorry عمر ابن علي البزار who died a year 749 هجرية the fourth scholar that wrote a book specifically on ابنوتي ميرحمه his life is حافظ ابنو كثير رحمه الله ابنو كثير his book he mentioned that he wrote the life of ابنوتي ميرحمه but it's not found he mentioned this in his كتاب البداية والنهاية that he's going to specifically after he spoke about ابنوتي ميرحمه in his كتاب البداية والنهاية he says I'm going to write a biography on him but what happened was either he forgot to write it or he he wrote it and it's from the books that were lost or he got busy writing it whatever the reason may be we haven't got that book that ابنو كثير wrote one of the books that are written is مناقب ابنوتي ميرحمه written by الحسن ابنو عمر ابنو حسن ابنو الحريب and this is Kitab it's still مخطوط it's not published yet القصيدة التائية في انكار تكفيره علاء البخاري لبنو تيميان and this is written by عمر ابنو موسى الحمسي الشافعي he wrote a hundred line of poetry he's speaking about the prophet speaking about ابنو تيميان's biography in poetry and defending him علاء البخاري he made تكفيره of ابنو تيميان he said he's a kafir so he came and he defended him number seven إذا الانتصار في ذكري أحوالي قامع المبتدعينة وآخل المجتهدينة it's written by عبد الرحمن المقدسي والحمريو number eight is الرد الوافر علاء من زعم أنه من سما ابنو تيميان تشيخ الإسلامي كافر and it's written by ناصر الدين الدمشقي this Kitab مكتبة الإسلامي يبابلشت with the تحقيق الزهير الشاوش and it's one of the best books written on his biography this book الرد الوافر ابنو حجر صورت when ابنو حجر صورت he requested the book and ابنو حجر wrote something on it he made a تقريض on it and on there ابنو حجر praised الشيخ الإسلامي ابنو تيميان and insha'Allah تعالى if time gives us insha'Allah we'll bring the calam of ابنو حجر about ابنو تيميان and how he praised him رحمه الله and this book الرد الوافر is a refutation علاء البخاري who said that no one could call Shaykh الإسلام ابنو تيميان called him Shaykh الإسلام because he's a kafir you can't call him Shaykh الإسلام if you call him then you become a kafر he said so it was a response by the نصر دينة دمشقي the night book is الإختيارات المرضية في أخبار تقيب ابنو تيميان and it's written by محمد ابن علي بنو طول الحنفي who died a year 953 هجرية last but not least الشهادة الزكية في ثلاث أيمة عل ابنو تيميان and it's written by مرعي الكرمي الحنبني these books are 10 books from 30 odd books that are written on his life for me to go through everything about Shaykh الإسلام ابنو تيميان his life is going to be very hard all of it but insha'Allah و تعالى what we aim to do is قطفات points here and there lessons that we can take from him رحمه الله I want to start by saying insha'Allah و تعالى that ابنو تيميان was called Shaykh الإسلام so what is Shaykh الإسلام that will give us an understanding of the title Shaykh الإسلام and then we will know what quality he holds مع صديرا دمشقي في الكتاب الرود الوافر he defied what Shaykh الإسلام means and he says the following he says one of them he mentions many meanings and then he says و منها أن معناه المعروف the meaning that is known amongst الجهابدة النقات the scholars of hadith in the ayma of islāt the scholars of hadith who deal with hadith when they use the word him Shaykh الإسلام they mean by it هم المتبعون الى الكتابي those who follow the book رب الله سبحانه وتعالى المقتفون للسنة رسولي صلى الله عليه وسلم and they tread on the path of the sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ الذين تقدموا بمعريفة احكام القرآن و وجوه قراءاتي those who have preceded everybody else in knowing the احكام of the Quran and the قراءات و أسباب نوزوله and they know the reasons why the Quran came down every verse where it came down this is the seven of the نوزول و ناسخه و منصوخه every verse they know if it's abrogated which verse did he abrogate or what verse abrogated it والأخذي بآيات المحكمات and they take the verses which are clear cut والإماني بالمتشابهات and they believe in the vague ambiguous verses و قد احكاموا من لغة العرب they've mastered the Arabic language ما اعانهم على علمي ما تقدم it helps them and supports them in understanding the Quran in the sunnah و علموا السنة تنقلن و إثنادا they know the sunnah in terms of its chain and they know it in terms of its wordings they know it و عملن they also implement the Hadith of the Prophet بما يجيبوا العملو به اعتمادا they implement what's in the Hadith as much as they know it's روايات and the chains and the طرق and the meaning they also implement it they are known to implement it و إماني they believe in it they also know for that و استمباطن و استمباطن they are also able to extract from it للأصول والفروع not just of عقيد they can extract rulings out of it for fiqh issues they can also extract rulings out of it قائمين بما فرض الله عليهم they stand to establish what is obligatory on them متمستكين بما ساقه الله من ذلك إليهم and they also are holding on to every knowledge Allah gave them they are implementers of it متوابعين لله العظيم الشأن they are very humble individuals they are known to be very humble خائفين من عثرة الإساني they are also scared of the slip of the tongue they avoid mistakes and they fear doing mistakes لا يدعون العسمتة they don't claim that they are infallible ولا يفرحون بالتبجيل and they are never happy to be bragged and boasted and raised up they don't like big titles علمين أن اللذي they also know that knowledge that has been given to them is very little فمن كان بهذه المنزلة anyone who has these characteristics حكما بأنه إيمام he is referred to as إيمام وستحق علي he deserves أن يقال له شيخ الإسلام and he has the rights فهم تبقوا شيخ الإسلام that gives you an understanding of why he was called شيخ الإسلام these characteristics are they present in him or not you will see let's start إن شاء الله with his بايقر في رحمه الله he is ابن تيميا أحمد that's his name his Kunya is تقية الدين his Kunya that's his lackup his Kunya is أبو العباس he is the son of شهاب الدين عبد الحرين who is the son of الشيخ عبد السلام مجدود دين أبي البركات ابن عبد الله ابن تيميا ابن تيميا was born in حران on Monday the 12th of ربيع الأول he was born on the 12th of ربيع الأول on Monday نبي الله محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he was born the same on a Monday same day as the Prophet and he was born on the same date as the Prophet and in the same month of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم عليه صلى الله عليه وسلم and this is a good sign for him رحمه الله رحمة واسعا the Sheikh رحمه الله he stayed in the place of his birth حران until he reached 7 years of age then he and his father and his brothers they moved to دمشقاء why فرارن منزح في التتار they ran away from the التتار who were the Mongols and the oppression towards the Muslims ابنه تيمي اسفادة شهاب الدين عبدالحليم ابنه تيمي اسفادة عبدالحليم who was Kunya or his lack of was شهاب الدين he was a scholar in and within himself قرأ المدهب الحمبلي his father studied the the medhab of the hambali on his father حتى أتقده until he mastered his father and this shows us the importance of studying a medhab and grounding yourself upon a medhab from the beginning and then making your way up رحمه الله he studied the medhab of the hambali on his father حتى أتقده until he mastered it ودارسة وافتة وصنفة his father used to teach his father used to have a seat where he would do fatwa and his father was known to author his father was an Imam he was a muhaqq and he mastered many funoon his father his father was Mutawadu a very humble man حسن الأخلاق his father had good etiquettes and good manners جواد and his father was a very generous man known for his generosity his father رحمه الله الإمام والدهب he said he was known as ابنه تيمي اسفادة was known as نور القمر the light of the noose moon ابنه تيمي اسفادة and his son ابنه تيمي اسفادة was known as ضوء الشمسي the light and the ray of the sun الشيخ عبد الحليم he took the مشيقة ودار الحريث in سكرية back in those days there were madaris there were schools and at that time the person who ordered to be a teacher there was a lot of levels of scholastic knowledge based علم تتقيق he had to go through his father went through that he used to have a sit where he used to teach and his father never ever read from a paper his father كان يقرأ من حفظه he used to read from the top of his head and he would come on fridays and his father would teach as for sheikh of islam his granddad his granddad is Majd al-Dheem أبو البركات عبد السلام ابنه عبد الله ابنه تيمية الحراني he is known as فقيه الحمبلي رحمه الله he was an مقرق قاري إنقراءات محدث مفصر أصولي نحوي أحد الحفاظ الأعلام his father his granddad was a qari he had a قراءات he also was محدث أسكولة in hadith he was an أصولي and he was a grimerian and he was graded and classified as one of the حفاظ in hadith his granddad is the author of the كتاب المنطقة which is الشرح أبنيل الأوطار by Shoukani his granddad ابنه تيمية ولذلك شيخ ألسان ابنه تيمية he spoke about his granddad and he said كان جدونا our granddad he was عجبا حفاظ الحديث how his memorization was in hadith وصردها how he could transmit the hadith and just read it like that وحفظ مداه how he knew the madhabs and the scholars of the madhabs and he knew it without any mashaqa and any kulfa he wouldn't have to think is it? no all of that would just be flowing from him جمال الدين ابنه مالك you know the grammar in ابنه مالك ابنه مالك was at the same time as ابنه تيمية's granddad ابنه جمال الدين ابنه مالك and he said about ابنه تيمية's granddad he said أولينا للشيخ المجد الفق كما أولينا لداود الحديث فق was made so soft for ابنه تيمية's granddad just like الله made the metal soft for نبي الله داود the way Allah made وقلنا له الحديث and then Allah said we made the metal soft for نبي الله داود and if Dawood grabbed the metal he would bend it نبي الله داود الله gave فق to ابنه تيمية's granddad that he was able to do that with فق use it in any way he wanted it he was معدوم النبير where would you find somebody like his granddad ابنه تيمية رحمه الله why was his family known as تيمية why what's the reason and what's the story behind it the scholars they differ on where this term تيمية came from some of the scholars they mention that his granddad which is محمد ابنه الخذر محمد ابنه الخذر who is the granddad of عبد السلام sorry the uncle of عبد السلام who is the uncle of ابنه تيمية's granddad so that's his granddad's uncle his name is محمد ابنه الخذر he went to do حج in a place دربه تيماء he saw there a young girl طفلة اسمها تيمية her name was known as تيمية so when he came back فرجع ثم رجع فوجد مراءة he found his wife was pregnant when he found محمد ابنه الخذر found his wife was pregnant so he called his daughter تيمية and so then it passed on to the family and so that's why they were called تيمية that's one view the second view is that the grandmothers of محمد ابنه الخذر his grandmothers she was a واعضة a woman who was known to do good reminders and her name was تيمية so the family was named after that what we can take from that is شيخ الإسلام ابنه تيمية he came from what أسره عريقة العلم a family that is truly that is truly rooted in one truly rooted in knowledge and that's where he came came out from رحمة الله تعالى شيخ الإسلام ابنه تيمية as I said before he moved from he moved from حران which is this place of birth and he went to دمشق and why he went to دمشق was he's the fear of the تطار the mongolians and the oppression towards the Muslim شيخ الإسلام ابنه تيمية his father and his brothers they went and ابنه تيمية his father he brought all of his books with him and he placed it on his writing beast and they were leaving with the books and it was so heavy the path the road was full of the enemies the تطار were grabbing the people and they were killing them and شيخ الإسلام his father was a a worship of الله سبحانه و تعالى but knowing that the books are with him not leaving one of his books and it would slow them down they never left it behind how much he loved his knowledge and شيخ الإسلام his father if it wasn't for as imam ابنه عبدالها he mentions لو لا أنه مستعانوا بالله تعالى if it wasn't for the fact that ابنه تيمية his father was really asking الله for help and aid and he begged الله the way he did الله سبحانه و تعالى might have thrown him into the hands of the enemies شيخ الإسلام ابنه تيمية his father came to دمشق he ran away from حران and they made it to دمشق when they came to دمشق his father straight when he took over the teaching as I said before he took over دمشقة الحديث السكرية he had a sit there and he would teach رحمه الله رحمة و سعى ابنه تيمية as a young kid would run around see his father in the حلقة teaching and educating the people and ابنه تيمية would sit down and he would take from his father and as I said before وكان أبوه يلقي درسه من حفظي his father would teach from memory من غير استعانة بقراطس without any scrolls being placed in front of him لقوة ذاكرتي how strong the memory of ابنه تيمية his father was رحمه الله and his granddad was like that and in no way of form or shape are we shocked and amazed to know that شيخه الإسلام ابنه تيمية is going to be like that رحمه الله تعالى his father pushed ابنه تيمية to memorize the Quran and I have to stop here and pause ابنه عبد الهديس الأول متجهة إلى القرآن فأتنجل to this the first thing that الشيخه الإسلام ابنه تيمية embarked on is the Quran فحفظه he memorized it ثم لم ينس بعده and he never forgot it after that يا إخوة wanting to be a student of knowledge and not memorize the Quran it is as a lot as I used to hear from my father فمن ضيع القرآن anyone who forsakes the Quran فليما سواه أضع he is going to forsake everything else if you couldn't give time to the statement of Allah then truly what are you going to give importance to if you couldn't memorize the speech of Allah you don't read the biography of a scholar except the first thing that's mentioned from him is what he gave importance to the Quran he memorized the Quran ابنه تيمية started his life with the Quran and when he died إن شاء الله as we are going to see the last thing that he had the last thing he was reading was the book of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and he died reciting the ayah he reached صورة قمر and he reached the ayah إن المتقين في جنات ونهر في مقع بصدق عند مليك المقتد that was the ayah الشيخ و الإسلام died 81 times he finished the Quran and ابنه تيمية regretted it all of his years of what he was doing he regretted it he said why didn't I spend my time with the Quran why didn't I spend my time with the Quran so this shows us and it gives us an understanding that if you want to study and if you want to learn the first step for learning and educating yourself is going for the Quran without a shadow of a doubt ولذلك the previous Ulama when a student would come to them and wants to study with them the first thing they would say to him as you have memorized the Quran if he says no I don't have time to teach you go and memorize the Quran and come back to me but we've put the standard down so we teach anybody who comes to us no problem we just teach them but the truth of the batteries is that the Quran is number one ولذلك الشيخ و الإسلام became الشيخ و الإسلام is because he memorized what he started with the memorization of the Quran ابنه تيمية was known to really forget something he wouldn't read him forget something he memorized even at his last stages الشيخ و الإسلام rarely forgot what he memorized رحمه الله he used to do استشهادات of the verses of the Quran now he would use an ayah that he needed as though ابنه عبدالهادي said that the Mus'haf was right in front of him and he was looking at the Mus'haf and he would read the ayah like that when he needed رحمه الله فكأنما ينظر في مصحف المنشور بين يدي he would read the verse that he wants to use like the Mus'haf was placed in front of him رحمه الله but rather what's even amazing is that رحمه الله that he didn't just stop he took it a step further he memorized حديث he memorized فِقْبُكْس and مطون he memorized books of the language and الشيخ و الإسلام ابنه تيمية براعة براعة خاصة ابنه تيمية became deep in the Arabic language that he read the كتاب كتاب سيبوي and he read it بالتأمل he sat down and he opened it and he read it easily رحمه الله تعالى he was studying it and he found points he didn't agree with رحمه الله رحمة واسعة and as they as امام ابن عبدالهادي said فا يخالف بعض ما فيه معتمد على ما درس في غيري points that he دفتف with him and he disagreed with him رحمه الله he would point them out and ابنه تيمية فلم يكن من المتهم جينة الشيخ و الإسلام ابنه تيمية it was not from those people who would wage enmity towards somebody من غيري it was not evidence that he believed which was right whether you agreed with his evidence or something else but he believed evidences that he had رحمه الله رحمة واسعة ابنه تيمية رحمه الله as a young child he spent his time في الجد والاجتهاد he worked hard and he put a lot of efforts in يا اخوة the people differ people want to be of that but they don't want to put no efforts in people differ يا اخوة at times when people sleep they are not sleeping you shouldn't be doing what other people are doing if you want to be different from the people you need to do things that people don't do when it comes to working hard and putting effort in and Shaykh و الإسلام as a young individual he had that he had جد رحمه الله he finished the Quran at a young age and then he memorized حليث and fiqh and Arabic brothers pay attention to this the books that ابنه تيمية studied and learned they even read it لأ لن تتعلم the books that he read was مسنة ديمة محمد and مسنة ديمة محمد is 30 volumes Shaykh و الإسلام read that he read صحيح البقاري صحيح المسلم جامعه تيميدي شناني ابن أبي داود أسجس تاني النسائي ابن ماجأ دار قطني he رحمه الله had this not once not twice but over 40 times رحمه الله تيمية he had استحضار of it he would be able to use it and the first book of hadith that he memorized is not 40 hadith is not عمدته لحكام and the first that he memorized was الجمع بين الصحيحين by حمايدي and this book is four volumes right now published with what أربع مجلدات Shaykh و الإسلام he memorized that رحمه الله he sat down and knows of that his of that level رحمه الله قراءة وسماع he would go and he would listen to the hadith being read on him رحمه الله رحمة واسعات he studied المعجم الطبراني الكبرة كبير nobody looks at those books today he read it he gave عناية then Shaykh و الإسلام بن تيمية he went towards على التفسير إقبالا he turned towards تفسير رحمه الله حتى حاز في قصب until he surpassed his peers and knows of his level إبنو تيمية أصول الفق رحمه الله رحمة واسعة and guess what he wasn't even 17 years of age when he done all of that وهو بعد ابنو بضع ابنو بضع اما ابنو بضع عشر سنة it was only 17 maximum ابنو تيمية when he did this رحمه الله رحمة واسعة what do our 17 year olds do chicken and chip shops yeah that's our 17 year olds like you look at him رحمه الله واتعالى taking all of the responsibility on himself شاكو لسامي تيمية درسة فقو الحمبلي he studied what those people who want to study and speak about مسائل فقية who haven't studied upon a madhab this is يتعبون والله they will get it it will be very hard for them and every imam that you see he started with a madhab and then he became an imam which is مجتهد مطرق and everybody just likes to look at the last stages of that imam I think that's the right way of studying that's not the way شاكو لسامي started with the حمبلي مدهب and he loved إمامه أحمد رحمه الله so he did تتبع and he followed up رحمه الله after that he differed with him what he differed with him and he had his own views شاكو لسام but he started with a madhab إبنو تيمية when he passed the age 20 years of age his father died and as soon as his father died he knew the responsibility was on him to take his father's seat and he sat down and he was only 20 years of age teaching and carrying on from where his father left off رحمه الله شاكو لسام فجلس he sat down and at that time when شاكو لسام إبنو تيمية is sitting down and he's teaching there are عولماء كبار it's not a time like like here there are عولماء إنو الدقيق and others are alive who are عولماء of their of their father's caliber who are alive at that time إبنو تيمية a 20 year old is sitting in the seat رحمه الله واسعة شاكو لسام إبنو تيمية he was an individual who had قوي وتوقل he used to rely on الله excessively دائم وذكر he used to remember الله a lot he used to have أذكار which he would never leave رحمه الله and he would never be heedless of he student ابنو القيم set حضرت شاكو لسام إبنو تيمية مرة I came to شاكو لسام صلى الصمح he prayed صلاة الصمح فجر ثم جلس he sat there he didn't move يذكر الله he was remembering الله قريب من منتصف النهار until it reached half the day ثم التفت إلي أني لكت ابنو القيم لكت ابنو القيم أني ستبنو القيم هذه غدوة this is my breakfast this is my breakfast ولولم أتغدأ if I don't have this breakfast then it goes فلنقل I do this ذكر and I don't remember الله I no longer will have strength أو كلاما قريبا من هذا he said من القيم so our speech close to that he set me وقال لي مرة he set me one day he set him one day لا أترك with ذكرة if you ever see me leave of a ذكرة that I should have done I've only left is the doctor of the heart ابنو القيم عليه رحمة الله ابنو القيم mentioned this in this كتابة الواب بلو صيب ذكر ابنو القيم was amazed with who ابنو تيميا rather one time ابنو القيم said رما ابنو القيم said to ابنو تيميا said to his tune ابنو قيم ربما طالعت I might look at sometimes الآية الواحدة one verse I might look at مئة تفسير أو look at a hundred books of تفسير one verse I wouldn't know what it means I would look at a hundred books of تفسير ثم أسأل الله after I've read that and I've come across a hundred أقوال and a hundred views on this آية then I turned to الله وقولوا I said to him يا معليما داود the one who taught داود علمني teach me ويا مفهم السليمان and the one who made سليمان understand فهمني make me understand لا أحد انت عش هنا مثل ويقول and then what I'll do is I will take my face and I will roll it in the dust وأسأل الله تعالى and then I will ask الله to give me what I'll give me understanding I will humble myself شخص إسلامي you is just growing عليه رحمة الله and his honor and his virtue عندما أعرفه كان يتكلم ابن عماد قال زملكاني هو one of the enemies of sheikh al-same'a هو أحد يقوله كان يتكلم أنه يتكلم أنه يتكلم يتكلم أنه يتكلم أنه يتكلم إبنو تيميا never asked about a topic أن فن من العلمي ماتاة of the religion is never asked to ibn utamiya إلا ذنر رائي except the one who is looking أو السامع or the one who is listening to ibn utamiya يتكلم أنه لا يعرف غير ذلك الفن This is the only fun and subject that ibn utamiya knows He doesn't know any other one Any issue that was asked to ibn utamiya you would think to yourself He hasn't mastered except this topic That's what you would think to yourself Any topic he spoke about You think he read it last night He prepared it He organized it He put notes together And now he's talking about it That's what you would think He said أنه لا يعرف غير ذلك وحكم أن أحد لا يعرف متنو And he said It's ruled that no one is like ibn utamiya أن الفقهاء من نسائر المداهب The scholars of other madhabs The Hanafiah The Malikia The Shafi'ia They used to come to him And they would sit with him And he would teach them about their madhab And the usul of their madhab And the aqwal in their madhab And the tarji'aat of their madhab And the qol which is معتمد in their madhab He would teach them about their madhab That they follow إذا جالسوا استفادوا من المداهب They sat with him They benefited from him Their madhab رحمه الله ولا يعرفوا It is not known أنه ناظر أحدا That ibn utamiya ever debated anybody فنقطع معه That his speech cut He couldn't say anything after that Never happened ولا تكلم في علم And it was never happened That ibn utamiya spoke about a knowledge From the knowledges that were out there إلا فاق فيه أهلو Except he surpassed those who spoke about it before him واجتماع فيه شروط الإجتهاد على واجتهاد Being a much-tahed was all present in him ذهبي that said When he was asked about ibn utamiya They said to him What do you think about ibn utamiya He said أك هو أكبر من أن أنبه على سيرتي Ibn utamiya is higher than me to tell people about his biography He's greater than that فلو حلفت بريف I swore by Allah بين الرقن والمقام Between the Rukun and the Ka'ba And the Makam Ibrahim If I swore between them I swore there And I took them out لحلفت أكت I swore أني ما رأيت That I never swore بيعينية مثله Anyone like him وأنه هو ibn utamiya ما رأى مثله مثل النفسي He never swore anyone like himself I swear I don't think I ever swore anyone like him He also hasn't seen anyone like him ibn utamiya رحمه الله تعالى ولذلك الشيخ والإسلام As we're going to take soon إن شاء الله تعالى When he went to Egypt To speak to ناصر القلوون To bring the army for the Muslims To defend the Muslims في دمشق Against تتطاق الشيخ والإسلام When he went there And he wrote the ayat of jihad And he spoke about the حكام of jihad And what the Muslims used to do for their Muslims And honor and freedom الشيخ والإسلام When he spoke إمن الدقيق العيد Was in the gathering He was sitting إمن الدقيق العيد Right Was in the gathering sitting He saw الشيخ والإسلام Come in and talk And when he finished الشيخ والإسلام Finished what he wanted to say They said to him Do you want to say anything He said to Allah I don't have anything to say I saw a man وضع الله العلم بين أصبعه بين عينه I saw a man Allah placed knowledge بين عينه Before his eyes All of knowledge Was presented in front of him يأخذو ما شاءه He takes what he wishes ويترك ما شاءه And he will leave Of what he doesn't need To use right for now That's what I saw From الشيخ والإسلام And he said رحم الله إمن الدقيق العيد رحم الله Older than He said this about him عليه رحمه الله شيخ والإسلام How did he look كاد أبيم شيخ was white أسود الرأس واللحية He's big even when he died He was white He's black No white entered it He didn't get stressed And that's powerful A man who went through What he went through But he's big And his hair was still black عليه رحمه الله He used to let his hair grow إلى شحمه شيخ والإسلام كأنه عيناه If he looked at you It was like his eyes Were two tongues that were talking to you It's like when he looked at you He was talking to you رحمه الله ربعة من الرجال And he said this He was an average-heighted person He wasn't too tall And he wasn't too short He was an average-heighted person بعيد من كبي His shoulders They were far from each other رحمه الله رحمة واسعة جهوري وصوت If he spoke, he was loud He wouldn't need no microphone He was very loud in his speech سريع القراءة ابن روشيق If he read from somewhere His reading was so fast ولي ذلك ابن روشيق And he couldn't read his own handwriting He had ابن روشيق Was a student With the only person Who could read ابن روشيق No one else He couldn't read his own handwriting He used to write fast And he never looked back What he wrote If he read He would read so fast رحمه الله رحمة واسعة And he would not do any grammatical mistakes When he's reading تعتلي الحدة I'm the line this point ابن روشيق was a bit harsh He had this حدة in him sometimes Toughness Sometimes anger may overcome him رحمه الله And this is one of the reasons Where his enemies increased a bit Jealousy was one In the fact that sometimes شيخو الاسلام When he wrote, he wrote harsh His writing was harsh But ابن روح But what would overcome that Is his forbearance He had tolerance Anything people said to him He had tolerance ولم أرى مثله I never saw anyone like him In how he used to seek help From Allah سبحانه وتعالى That's how he looked ابن تيمير lived at a time When the Islamic government Was very weak في حالة ضعفي والتمزق الشديد Islamic government was very low The Muslims were suffering And شيخو الاسلام ابن وتيمير Was a person respected But the Khilaf of the Muslims The Heba and the Honor was going Was dying And the weakness was growing in the Muslims Muslims were being killed And massacred all over the place Enemies would come in Destroy the Muslims It reached a level where the Tatar Woman would say to a Muslim Sit here I'm going to get my sword to kill you And the Muslim would wait for her She would go And she would bring her sword And she would kill him The reason why he would wait for her Is because he knew if he ran She would get him And kill his family That's the dhul And the humiliations that the Muslims Were in رحمه الله تعالى What role did شيخو الاسلام Take in this regard How is his position regarding رحمه الله رحمة واسعة شيخو الاسلام was an عالم Who fought with his pen He fought with his sword رحمه الله Combined between that إبنو تايمير Heard that the Sultan The Sultan Ghazan The Tatar leader Now Ghazan and his army They claimed to be Muslims They said we're Muslims So when they claimed to be Muslims شيخو الاسلام The four fathers of the Tatar Were Muslims So شيخو الاسلام Heard that they wanted To come to Dimashqa And they wanted to kill the Muslims So شيخو الاسلام When the information reached him فقام من فاولي Straightaway stood up رحمه الله تعالى When the news reached him And he urged the Muslims To wake up and not to have weakness And cowardness in them رحمه الله رحمة واسعة And he said come with courage If it's needed شيخو الاسلام Then went to Ghazan Knocked on his door The Tatar no one goes to them No one talks to them خلافة all of them Come anywhere close to them The Magolians شيخو الاسلام Entered onto him And when he entered into him The leader He venerated and started to respect The شيخ رحمه الله As soon as he saw him And the شيخ رحمه الله Came close to him And he said to him رحمه الله He said to him You claim to be a Muslim And your four fathers Were all non-believers كفار None of them were Muslims They had more of honesty than you do You don't fulfill the contracts That you made with the Muslims You come into the Muslims And then you want to You come to the Muslim land And you break the hood And the muwathik That you took with them The covenants that you took with them شيخو الاسلام And he was talking The people who were with him His students They grabbed the side of their garments And they pulled it together And they were scared that the blood That's going to come from شيخو سلام His neck Is going to be stricken And killed Is going to go in their clothing So they're trying to go as far Away from him And trying to free themselves from From being associated with him شيخو الاسلام Then they brought close to him Food And they said Eat And he said No, I'm not going to eat How am I going to eat food You stole And you took And you robbed This is the people's wealth And the people's money You cooked it And you're bringing it to us And you want us to eat it And he said I'm not going to eat this food of yours شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا Then غازان He said Okay To شيخو الاسلام He said Okay He said If you know That this man غازان Is a person who's fighting He's fighting for the word Of Allah to be high فأيطو سبوه وانصوره وإن كان للملكي والدنيا If he only wants دنيا And he's running after leadership And he wants to get number ففعل به وصنع Destroy him and let him not lift a head Destroy him غازان was only saying وحلمه الله وليذلك جمال الدين ابن أنجا He said كان شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا ليخاف الرجل غير الله شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا And no one fears other than Allah إلا لمرضي في قلبي Except as illness in his heart فإن رجل شكأ إلى أحمد A man came to Imam Ahmad And he complained to him خوفو من بعض الولات That he was scared of some of the leaders And he said to him لو صححتا لم تخف أحدا If you were correct And your heart was good Then you would never have failed anyone You would only fail Allah سبحانه وتعالى Then when شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا And when the leader said to شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا Okay, I will not bring any army to you And I'm not going to enter Damascus I'll leave you guys alone شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا I'm back He told the people, don't worry It wasn't very long When the year was 700 It reached شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا That the Tatar are coming in And that they've chosen to Break the covenant And the promise that they made شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا He played his role again What he played was The leader of the Muslim Khilafa Was situated in where He was situated in the Egypt Now Suruddin Al-Qalawud Was the Sultan of the Muslims at that time شيخو الاسلام يبنو تيميا He took a horse from Damascus This horse that he took رحمه الله It went It was horses that we would say It's based on speed You take it It goes fast When the horse gets tired There's another horse waiting for you You jump on the other horse And that's how it goes It's called بريد It's not meant to Waste time He took that رحمه الله تعالى He went to Nasruddin Al-Qalawud And he spoke to him He said to him What's happening to the people of Sham It's upon you guys as leaders To defend them And support them Allah has made it upon you Leaders over them رحمه الله رحمة واسعة Forget the fact that you guys Are leaders over them If you were leaders over them And you had no control over them If Muslims asked you for help You need help them Because Allah has said in the Qur'an فإن اصطرواكم في الديري فعليكم النصر If they ask you for help And they call for you Then upon you is to give them help and support What about if you're their leaders And you're in charge of them He said you have to help them رحمه الله رحمة واسعة And the sheikh urged That the leaders help And no doubt The leader The Asr al-Qalawud And the army went forward When the army came forward نصر دين القلوون Became cold-feated شيخ الاسلام وطبع Went back to him And spoke to him again And the army went forward The quw of sheikh الاسلام Was that the fighting took place In Ramadan When the year was 702 And sheikh الاسلام When the armies met And the Tatar were near the side And sheikh الاسلام Was here Sheikh الاسلام Said to his brother Where do you think the Tatar Is the most weakest Where do you see them To be most weakest And they pointed towards the direction And he said Inshallah I'll go from there That's how he was And his bravery رحمه الله رحمة واسعة When sheikh الاسلام Finished with the Tatar There were a group of بائفة الرافضة Who were on top of a mountain Who were the ones Who were giving the news to the Tatar And they were the ones Who were taking the Muslims They were sending it to the Tatar So what sheikh الاسلام Did was on the way Back from the army Of the Tatar He went on the hill Brought them all down رحمه الله And he fought against them Until he gave victory To the religion Sheikh الاسلام Was really tested Really really tested رحمه الله رحمة واسعة If a person can be Said that he spent His majority of his time In prison He did رحمه الله And the reason why Sheikh الاسلام Did Is because of what he believed And what he called to And everybody الله سبحانه وتعالى Makes for him Who calls to the truth Who propagates the truth الله سبحانه وتعالى Makes him لسالة حسود A tongue that has envy And jealousy And hate towards him So Sheikh الاسلام Was really good Did رحمه الله رحمة واسعة Some people just hate in him One of the people Who gave a fatwa And said that Sheikh الاسلام Is to be killed Is Ibn Makhloof Al-Maliki He said He said Anyone I've given you guys The fatwa To go and kill Sheikh الاسلام And I will speak on your behalf The day of judgment Gave that fatwa And that fatwa Was sad Don't think it was a joke This is a fatwa From a mufti Of the country So because of that Sheikh الاسلام He was in prison رحمه الله The second reason Why Sheikh الاسلام There was a lot of Hustility and hate towards him As I said to you Before it was a bit tough رحمه الله In the way he spoke ولذلك أبو حيان الاندولسي The great grammar He said Who loved Ibn Taymiah He really loved him He praised him a lot And he even made poach In praise of Ibn Taymiah He met Ibn Taymiah One time and he sat with him And he had so much love for him And then a discussion went on And Sheikh الاسلام Ibn Taymiah having that In him What he did was He spoke very harsh To أبو حيان الاندولسي And he spoke very harsh To him And when he spoke harsh To him He said to him ما كان سيبويه النبي نبي الواحي سيبويه is not the prophet of grammar أبو حيان الاندولسي His knowledge is not grammar So it's haim And he said ولا كان معصوما سيبويه wasn't infallible But he made mistakes In his Kitab في ثمانين موضعا 80 places Which I have noted That Ibn Taymiah said لا تعريفوا أنت You don't know it ولا سيبويه And Ibn Taymiah doesn't know That he did that mistake لا أبو حيان الاندولسي This is his heart He loved Ibn Taymiah This hurt him And then he mentions That That was my reason Why I'm boycotting him And I never spoke to Ibn Taymiah After that ولذلك in his Kitab البحر His بحر المحط أبو الحيان الاندولسي He took his time Out to retreat Ibn Taymiah Wherever opportunity he got He refuted him رحمه الله رحمة الله سعا So those were the two reasons Why Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiah Was given hard time رحمة الله One of the things that Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiah Suffered because of it Was a question came to him From a place called حماتا A people came and they asked him a question When the year was 698 And Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiah Gave a fatwa according to what he knew And this was what's known as بالفتوة الحموية الكبرى He gave fatwa And he spoke about the issue Of Allah's name and attributes And he stayed away from the باب التعطيل That they fall into But when he gave that answer Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiah He got troubled because of that And because of that Debates took place Based on two books of his العقل الفتاة الحموية And he's العقيدة الواسطية He debated رحمه الله Many debates That wouldn't stop Keep coming to him رحمه الله رحمة الله سعا One of the famous debates That he went into Is the debate that he took place That took place between him The أحمدية رفاعية The رفاعية The رفاعية were a Sufi group Who claimed That they don't have to Worship Allah anymore خلاص They don't have to They reached that level Of وعبو دربك حتى حتى يأتي أكل يقين They reached certainty So they don't need to Worship Allah So they stop worshipping الله سبحانه وتعالى So Sheikh Al-Islam He said, I'll debate with you But there's something That these أحمدية The رفاعية used to do Which is that it used to Go into fire And the fire wouldn't burn them They wouldn't burn them So the عامة To the people you say Look, Karamat So Sheikh Al-Islam As he was debating with them They started doing that In front of him Sheikh Al-Islam said Okay, no problem He gave them a vinegar He said, you have to Shower with the vinegar And then You and I You guys and me We're all going to the fire I'll see who it burns Because they used to Put something on Which would prevent them From the fire So they refused to do that And they spoke to him Privately, they said Leave us alone What do you want from us Leave us alone He said, no Wash your fingers If you don't want to Wash burning your whole bodies Wash your fingers And place it in the fire After washing it with the vinegar They said, no, no, no Leave us alone We told you, leave us alone The night before Sheikh Al-Islam He spent the whole night Burning Allah Every time He went for a مناذرة And a debate Sheikh Al-Islam Every time He would ask Allah at night The whole night He would beg Allah To give him victory رحمه الله رحمة و سعك But Sheikh Al-Islam His life is very very long عليه رحمة الله And it's a person who's Many can be Many things can be taken from it But one of the things that touched me From his life was When Nas Ibn Taymiyyah Got arrested on his Last final occasions And He came out Because he built A very strong bond With Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Stepped down from Egypt For a period of time At that time Sheikh Al-Islam Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Was not the leader Ibn Taymiyyah Was really hurt Because of He spent a lot of time In prison He was in prison In Alexandria He was in Cairo He spent time in prison And they gave Fatwas of his killing But Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah He managed Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Managed to come back In position And when he did Who's got the upper hand now Ibn Taymiyyah did Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Personally requested For the freedom of Sheikh Al-Islam And Ibn Taymiyyah Came out And Nasru Dina Al-Qalawun Was waiting for Sheikh Al-Islam In the front of his castle His building Waiting for Ibn Taymiyyah To come And he shook his hand He kissed him on the forehead And then he sat down And he showed him All the Fatwas Of those who said You need to be killed And what they said about him He was trying to hint Give me the green lights I would deal with these people All of them And Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah Said something He said These are people of knowledge Whether I agree with them Or I disagree with them If you kill them Who are you going to exchange them with And Sheikh Al-Islam Taymiyyah Said something powerful I have freed everybody Who has caused me harm I have freed them From any Of my حقوق And that is Ibn Makhlouf Al-Maliki Who gave the Fatwa Of the killing of Ibn Taymiyyah He said May Allah have mercy Of Ibn Taymiyyah When we had the ability Over him We harmed him But when he had it Over us He forgave us And this is the characteristics Of a person Who the issue Is not personal for him And the Qadiah Is not him He knows it's not about him But the matter for him Is what? Deem And when Sheikh Al-Islam Taymiyyah His greatest enemy Died Ibn Makhlouf Al-Maliki Died And when Taymiyyah Was told about it They gave him The good glad tidings They said Look, your enemy is dead And Alhamdulillah Relax, don't worry He's dead And then he said Ibn Makhlouf Al-Maliki He's going to give me The tidings Of the death of a Muslim He stood up And he went to the children Of this man He went to his house He grabbed his children And he said to them What you need to know Is I am your father From today on I take the place of your father رحمه الله رحمة الواسعة He knew where the discussion lies Where the niqash was And where it was حق المسلم على أخيه على أخيه المسلم He knew that رحمه الله رحمة الواسعة And look at the statement That he said رحمه الله He said In his last He said قد أحللتوا I have freed كل أحد in everybody مما بيني و بينه Which is between him إلا من كان عدوة لله و رسولي Except whoever is an enemy To Allah in his messenger That's what it meant For him رحمه الله And he walked Away from any person Being killed Or being harmed رحمه الله رحمة الواسعة Because Ibn Taymi spent 7 years and 7 nights In Egypt He wasn't with his mom And there were letters He wrote for his mom I advise you guys To listen to that letter He wrote for his mom And his brothers advising them And the message Shows you how he Was an obedience To his parents His mother يا إخوة And the alim When you look at him He's an alim in all aspects He's not just In one field that we look at It's great all over الشيخ الإسلامي بلو تيميا He got taken in prison And everything got taken away from him The leader He took everything from him He took pens He took the papers from him Because he was writing so much His enemies did not want him To author anything They did not want The man Al-Akhna'i came out And he made some accusations الشيخ الإسلامي Recruited him And made a book And then the book sped Amongst the people And then Al-Akhna'i Went to the leader He said how is this man right I thought he was prison I thought he was meant To be silent So they took the pen And papers And everything from him And إبن القيم Said I was in prison with him And he said he took The Quran And he read it From ظهر القلب From the top of his head And he read it 81 times رحمه الله رحمة نواسعة Until he came to the ayah إن المتقين في جنات ونهر في مقعد صدق عند مليك مقتد When he reached that ayah الشيخ الإسلامي بلو تيميا He died and passed away Everybody came to know about his death Scholars ألمان والذهبي ألم كثير أبن عبدالهادي أبن حجاج المزي All of them participated in his burial ولي ذلك الشيخ الإسلام ألمان أحمد رحمه الله And he said Between us And the Muftadi'a Is the burial day الشيخ الإسلامي تيميا Was the second most Largest person's جناز أفت أحمد أحمد رحمه الله لم يرى مثله Wasn't seen the likes of it His enemies came The leaders came Everybody participated And he spent his life in prison And he stood up for what he believed One of the reasons why he got in prison His last reason he got in prison Was two things The issue of And he was requested on many occasions To not stop talking about it And he looked at everybody And he said He said to him about What about the issue of Go and visit in the graves Going from one country He said I'm not going to stop talking about that issue And because of those two issues He refused to stop talking about He got taken into prison And they asked him Before he went to prison Do you regret talking about it He said No إنَّا الَّذِينَا وَلَقَدَ أَخَضَ اللَّهُمْ يِثَاكَا وَلَقَدَ أَخَضَ اللَّهُمْ يِثَاكَا وَلَقَدَ أَخَضَ اللَّهُمْ يِثَاكَا الَّذِينَا أُوْتُوا الْكِتابا لَاتُو بَيُّنُنَّهُ لِي النَّاسِ وَلَا تَكْتُمُونَا He said Allah to cover With the people of knowledge That they will clarify the truth That they will clarify the truth And they will not hide it They will not hide it And he said And he said And he hid it And he hid it He will come the day of judgment With what With what And he will put it on his mouth So he He died I am going to conclude Insha'Allah When he died His books were banned No one was allowed to Republish them And they were not allowed to be spread And everything got banned لكن الله سبحانه وتعالى يريد شيء ما يحدث ونحدث لا يمكن أن يتوقفه وإن شاء الله أتعالى سوف أتكلم بعض المجموعة الذين يقومون في حالاتنا ويقومون أن يقومون بعمل المنطمية الأول هو محمد صدق حسن خان من إليا رحمة الله وتعالى صدق حسن خان هو

why he wrote that book He said I was on a boat one day I was going to Hajj And as I was on the boat People then started to call on to other than Allah He said I realized what are these people doing So he authored that book الدين الخالص رحمه الله It's an amazing story You try to read it From the scholars is أبوطيب أعطاء الله الحنيف He was a great Indian scholar He died a year 187 هجرية And the Indian scholars were the early scholars Who actually had a published house To publish books Also محمد رشاد ساليم Who was a student in Cambridge University In the early 1950s He's the one who done the

go for a hadith محمد رشيد رضا Was from the scholars Who made sure That he bought the works of شيخه الإسلام محمد دين الخطيب محمد دين الخطيب رحمه الله There's a good كتاب called خوطوط العريضة He's a great scholar That's a student of ناريد And I don't know him محمد شكري الألوسي In Egypt From the scholars who stood up To make sure he published The works of شيخه الإسلام المبنوطيمة محمد بهجة الأثر

like that Two volume books Very nice محمد نصر الدين الألباني رحمه الله And last but not least عبد الرحمن يحيا المعلمي عبد الرحمن يحيا المعلمي He went to حيدة رباد دكن He married an old إبن يوومن He's a Yemeni originally أهما يحيا المعلمي And when they asked him why did you marry an old woman You're a very young man He said I don't want to have children And no did I want to be in a serious relationship The woman is excessively old So شيخ الإسلام شيخ محمد أبنان نحيا المعلمي وزالصاحب علم So he used to stay in Makkah He had a مكتبة الحرم And he wrote many books From the books that he wrote is the كتاب رفع الاشتباه Which is known as رسالة العبادة Where he talks about the concept of عبادة He wrote another كتاب called التنكيل بما في تأنيب الكوثري من الأباطيل Where he refuted محمد زاهد

ألباني مكتبة الإسلامية كل one of you سوف يأتي إلى هذا العالم And you're going to leave سأسأل ماذا لديك هذه المحاولة وماذا لديك لديك محاولة وماذا لديك لديك محاولة لا تكون شخص who came to this world ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة ومحاولة كل one of you I'm looking at here is very young And many of the شخم they never embarked on the first stages of becoming scholars those people of knowledge If you look at Imam al-Dahabi he was an Imam في القراءات دهبي that was his field He has a big great book ونعرفة القراء الكبار دهبي was a scholar in القراءات But one day he was writing something and رحمه الله دهبي writing And guess what he said to him What did he say to him Your handwriting is like the handwriting of the scholars of Habith And that's it دهبي's life changed And he became a scholar in Habith He wrote his book سير علامي نبلاء And then he went to في مصطلحي الحديث إذا إن إمام إن حديث now يهزت يهزت تعليقات أول إمام أبعا عبدالله حكم إن يصابور يهزموا استدرك إن حديث just by somebody see your handwriting tells you you got good handwriting your handwriting it's like the scholars of حديث And then you embark on it shows what ومن تكون العليا هيمة نفسي فكل لدي يقافي محبب high aspiration they with me brothers And the poet said بحفدي متن جامع اللي راجحي تأخوده على مفيدي على مفيدي الناصحي memorize understand and implement That's where people pass There's no one Allah raised greater than the people of knowledge والله Allah raised their status station Allah took them as witnesses You take a witness as a reliable person, right? Allah said in the Quran شهد الله أنه لا إله إلا والملائكة وقول العلم قائما بالخص And Allah said They're my witness The scholars and the angels are my witness that I am the only one who deserve to be worshipped That shows you the station of the people of knowledge and how high they are and how great they are And إخواني إِلَّمْ تَقُونُوا مِثْ لَهُمْ فَتَشَبَّهُ إِنَّ التَشَبُّهَ مِلْكِرَامِ فَلَحُوا If you can't beat like these scholars you can't reach that level then try to mimic them pretend to act like them for verily acting like the people of knowledge is what It's a virtue It's a virtue in and within itself It's a virtue Any mistake errors shortcoming faults I might have come with whilst I was talking فإنه مني ومن الشيطان والله ورسوله برياني منه It's for me as shaytan and Allah and his messenger are free from it سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله أستغفرك أتوب إلي
