 تبطه آدك الأيام فتا الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على النبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين وبعد إن شاء الله تعالى تلوي جونتي ستاة شرح العقيدة الواصطية لشيخ الإسلام أحمد بن عبد الحليم من عبد السلام ابن تيميا رحمه الله تعالى سوف نبدأ كتاب عقيدة الواصطية بشيخ الإسلام ابن تيميا وإن شاء الله تعالى سوف تكون شرح مختصر على العقيدة الواصطية بإذن الله الكريم سيخ الإسلام بالمخفص من هذا المحفظة أو when the scholars explain a book, before they go into the book, they do two things The first thing that they do is that they talk about the author of the book and the individual who wrote the book and what they also do is they also speak about the book itself What is this book? What is it about? What does it deal with? معه . كما يجب أن نتحدث about the author of the book we've already spoken about him previously نتحدث about him in the شرح of our كتاب or the كتاب اللامية to Benutemia نتحدث about him in the لامية . إطالب علم she'll go back to that book to see the life of the author and about him the second thing which is عقيدة الوسطية is a book which the scholars they gave a lot of attention to the scholar showed a lot of أهمية they gave it importance and they explained it from the scholars that explained it is الشيخ عبد الرحمن بن ناصر السعدي رحمه الله he called the book his explanation التنبيهات اللطيفة في محتوى عليه الوسطية من المباحث المنفية also زيدي بن عبد العزيز ابن فياد he also explained this book and he called it الروضة الندية شرح العقيدة الوسطية but the best explanation that this book has is التنبيهات السنية على العقيدة الوسطية التنبيهات السنية على العقيدة الوسطية الشيخ عبد العزيز بن ناصر الرشيد عبد العزيز بن ناصر الرشيد his explanation is the best الشيخ بن عثيمين also explained it all of those شروح we're going to take benefits from them we're going to be relying on the شرح of بن عثيمين we take some things from it we're going to be relying on the شرح of زيدي بن عبد العزيز ابن فياد the شرح of عبد العزيز بن ناصر and the شرح of عبد الرحمن بن ناصر السعدي رحمه الله also what we will be relying on and we will be taking from benefits is كتب التفسير such as the تفسير of امام محمد بن علي الشوكان رحمه الله he's فتح القدير and تفسير of ابن الكثير رحمه الله تعالى so i ask الله سبحانه وتعالى that he benefits us بإذن الله الكريم with the beginning of this book he gives us the ability he gives us the strength to finish this book إن شاء الله تعالى without any further ado we'll start the book but what i want to remind you of is the scholars of اهل السنة when they explain their books they all speak about five points and these are اهل السنة they are the foundation that a person of the sunnah he needs to follow in order to be from the people of the sunnah and this book is going to deal with those five issues the first one of them is the names of الله and his attributes الله's names and attributes you follow the methodology of اهل السنة you follow the methodology of اهل السنة you put it into that the second one is مسائل الصحابة that the matters put it into the صحابة you follow in regards to what they believe and what they say about اهل السنة the third one is مسائل اسمائي والأحكام names and rulings that come in the شريعة names and rulings that come in the شريعة such as the name ايمان كفر نفاق فسق بداعة they are placed in the right place and the شروط the conditions اهل السنة follow and the موانع they observe that the student of knowledge observes those he observes the conditions he observes the obstacles but take it to the to the ايمان and كفر he also learns that the ايمان it's اركان it's it's كماليات and whatnot i mentioned three right the fourth one is اهل قضاء والقدر the issues of قضاء والقدر where Allah has destined سبحانه وتعالى and the مراتب القدر the levels of qadr we'll speak about that إن شاء الله وتعالى and the fifth one which is the last one الوعد والوعيد warnings and promises that come in the القرآن and the sunnah so إن شاء الله وتعالى this book عقيدة ورصطية ابنوتيمية focuses on those five at the ending of the book إن شاء الله وتعالى after he mentions those five الشيغ رحمه الله he goes into some issues of manners and etiquettes and adab some issues of etiquettes that he speaks about رحمه الله that a person needs to look after and these are the مكملات these are the things that complete a person's what a person's عقيدة to have good etiquette issues of أمرو بالمعروف النهي عن المنكر and other than that he brings رحمه الله and he concludes with that so those five أصول is what this book is going to deal with these five are fundamental issues that you can't oppose أهل السنة regarding it if you do you leave أهل السنة so we're going to start إن شاء الله وتعالى قال المصنف the author said شاء الله وتعالى ابنوتيمه said بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم the author he started his book with the بسم الله he started his book with the what with the بسم الله بسم الله is بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم why اقتداء بالكتاب العزيز he's following the book of Allah because the book of Allah it starts with the بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم صورة الفاتحة not only that but every في كل صورة in every صورة of the Qur'an بسم الله it started with it except صورة براءة اما صورة التوبة also he's imitating and he is following the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم because the letters that the Prophet used to write he used to start with بسم الله الرحمن الرحمن grammatically we're going to analyze بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم بسم الله دباء is باء الليل استعانى you're seeking aid and help from الله تبارك وتعالى دباء is باء الاستعانى ya meaning we're seeking help from Allah by calling him on his name اسم in the Arabic language is ما دل على مسمان ما دل على مسمان it is anything that shows you something or it's a thing that indicates the thing that it was named after this is called a pen so when I say pen it shows you the thing that is what it's linguistically that's what it means technically according to the grammarians they consider it is ما دل على معنى في نفسه ولم يقترب بأحد الأزمنة ثلاثة the grammarians they see the word اسم as to be what that which has a meaning in and within itself but it does not indicate time whatsoever it doesn't show time good so we said بس we explained what the back means when you explain what the اسم means the بسم الله is أجار المجرور means حرف وجر and اسم مجرور أجار المجرور have to be attached to something what are they attached to والجار والمجرور متعلق بمحظوف ينبغ أن يقدر متأخير اللي يفيد الحصراء قاعدو the جار والمجرور are both attached to something that is hidden it is also hidden but it's delayed بطافة so exclusivity can come from it meaning بسم الله and then wherever it's hidden it's left it comes after بسم الله after the جار المجرور are you with me why is it coming after the جار والمجرور the reason it's becoming اللي يفيد الحصراء so it shows exclusivity because the قاعدة is the قاعدة and the principle is anything that should have been delayed if it gets put forward it shows exclusivity that's the قاعدة the جار والمجرور were not meant to be forward it was meant to be after the verb but why is it put forward yeah so it can show exclusivity بسم الله in the name of Allah in the name of Allah اكتبه I write so in this situation right now he's the author he's saying بسم الله اكتبه because he is writing he's not eating he's not sleeping he's not walking he's بسم الله only a false to that verb of writing بسم الله in the name of Allah الله is what brothers علم العلا ذات المقدسة the word الله is a noun a name that is used only for Allah and what does it mean it means he's the one who is the Lord the one who deserves to be worshipped and he's the Lord over all his creation the grammarians they discuss if the name Allah is rooted and does it stem from a word and the strongest of that it is that it does and that is what which basically means عبد يعبد عبادة the word الله comes from the word ألاها it's مشتق it's rooted from something so Allah is what the one that is worshipped alone and he's not associated partners with him that is what Allah means and no one is allowed to take that name not only his name so بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الرحمن الرحيم اسماني كريماني من أسمائله حسنا الرحمن الرحيم are from the noble names of Allah سبحانه وتعالى both of them both of them دلان على اتصافي تعالى بالرحمة على ما يليق بجلاله both of them they indicate and they are characteristics that indicate ماسي both of them الرحمن and الرحيم both of them show ماسي this ماسي is what Allah shows towards his creation and it befits his majesty how he is merciful both of them فالرحمن والذو الرحمة العامة لجميع المخلوقات there's two ways we can take in explaining الرحمن and الرحيم two ways one is that we say both of them are سفة فعليه the first way so there's two ways we can explain الرحمن and الرحيم the first way we can explain it is we say الرحمن and الرحيم both of them are سفة فعليه so if they're both سفة فعليه then what's the difference the difference is that الرحمن is سفة فعليه but it's عام it is general ماسي it's not exclusive to anybody and then we say الرحيم is what it's خاصة تل بالمؤمنينة it's specific to the believers that's one way of explaining it and the scholars they take some scholars they take that the second way to go around it is what yeah to say الرحمن اي with me الرحمن سفة فعليه and الرحيم سفة فعليه and what is what's the difference between سفة فعليه and سفة فعليه will come to it شاء الله و تعالى will come to it but in simple terms the difference between the two is سفة فعليه is not connected to Allah's will where سفة فعليه is connected to Allah's will he does it whenever he wills سفة ذاتية لا ينفكوا عن عنه سبحانه و تعالى never detach itself from him سبحانه و تعالى very good then the author says الحمد لله الذي أرسل رسوله بالهداة و دين الحق ليذهله على الدين كله و كفى بالله شهيدا و شد الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له اقرارا به وتوحيدا و شد أن محمد و عبده و رسوله صلى الله عليه و على آله وسلم تسليبا مزيدا after the author mentions and he said بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم he now went on to saying اه or he went to the he went to the حمد لله which is by sending praise onto الله سبحانه و تعالى so he started by saying بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم and now straight away he's going to say he's saying الحمدو praise is لله سبحانه و تعالى الحمدو لله سبحانه و تعالى the word الحمدو the elef allaam in الحمدو is للستغرق the word استغرق in the arabic language you feedه شمول والعموم استغرق means what you feedه العموم والشمول it means that word every meaning that it can carry praising in all of its meanings is for الله that's what the elef allaam benefits us some said no it means الجنسية the elef allaam not جنسية they said it's جنسية and the reason why they said it's جنسية are not استغرق because they said that the praise can't be done for other than الله and if you make استغرقية then if you make استغرقية grammatically then that means that the praise is it's only for Allah and no one else can be praised when in reality others are praised من عام so that is the discussion so elef allaamdou لله allaamdou لله praise is for Allah اي جميع المحمد لله all praise is for him سبحانه وتعالى what does haamd mean haamd is أثناء بالصفات الجميلة والأفعال الحسنة the word alhamdou linguistically linguistically it means what it means praising it means to praise with characteristics which are beautiful are you with me that is what it means that is what it means and there is a difference between الحمد and شكر حمد and شكر there is a difference between the two حمد is that you praise somebody for something that they have they are حمد means you praise somebody for something that they are not something that they've done for you are you with me and also what they do for you those two you come حمد means you praise somebody for something that they've done for you and you can also praise somebody for what for that which they haven't done for you just that which they are the fact that Allah owns the heavens and the earth that's not something you're doing for you but the fact that he owns it سبحانه وتعالى he's praised for that that's haamd whereas شكر on the other hand is only when you do something for me can only أشكر وك I can only praise you in the word أشكر وك is when you've done something for me so from that angle شكر and حمد حمد has a vast meaning big meaning are you with me very good if you look at it from another اعتبار from another angle شكر has a bigger meaning than الحمد when we look at where it occurs from حمد only occurs from the heart and the mouth خلص you praise the person from beneath your heart you actually mean it and of course you say it with your mouth but it can't pass that whereas شكر on the other hand is what's in your heart you can also you can also say it and also an action is a شكر an action of the limbs is شكر نظر الله تعالى وتعالى he said in the Quran so from that angle شكر has a vast meaning than حمد and حمد so بينهما عموما وخصوص is what the علامة say so the شخص said الحمد لله praises for الله so we've taken what the word لله means الله we've already spoken about it الذي أرسل رسوله the one who sent down his messenger الذي the one meaning الله تعالى is praise worthy the one meaning الله who sent down his messenger the word أرسلاء means بعثه he sent رسوله his messenger here what is meant by the messenger here is محمد specifically صلى الله عليه وسلم the word رسول linguistically means من بُعث برسالة is the one that's sent with the message technically it means وإنسان وذكرون وحية إليه بشرق وأمرة بتبليغي technically what does it mean it means it's a human being messengers will never sit down from the jinn the messengers were sent down from human beings ذكرون is a male there's no such a thing as a female there's no such a thing as a ابن حزم got it wrong here the view that ابن حزم held that a woman can be is incorrect because the evidence that he used is في اليم ولا تخاف الله سبحانه وتعالى we set revelation on ummusa so they said that here وحي means that she's a is incorrect why why is it incorrect because الله تبارك وتعالى he also says that about the namel the bees الله تبارك وتعالى he what he set revelation on them the word revelation here means when Allah guides them to do something correct okay very good هو إنسان ونذكر ونوحية إليه بشرع وأمرا بتبليغي and he was ordered to convey it he was ordered he's given a legislation and he was ordered to convey it that's what a messenger is بالهوداء praises to the الذي أرسل رسوله he sent down his messenger بالهوداء with guidance خوداء brother means what خوداء brother means امين العلم النافع beneficial knowledge الهوداء means beneficial knowledge and it's basically everything that the prophet ﷺ came with in terms of news that he told us and all the commands and the prohibitions all of that is that's beneficial knowledge guidance brothers is two types والهوداء نوعان guidance is two types the first type of guidance is the guidance that means to show the path and to bring the people to the path this is type of guidance and الله تبارك و تعالى he said it in the Qur'an و أما ثمود فهديناهم فاستحب العما على الهوداء if you look at this ayah if you don't understand the difference between the two types of guidance you may lose and you may slip here you see the Qur'an my brothers and sisters is not it's not an academic book that you go to a library and you pick it up and then you just read it and choose a chapter randomly and you just take it out like that the Qur'an requires a many sciences to be in place before you can even be able to understand what the Qur'an is trying to tell you you see and one of these verses are from those verses that require that type of understanding and this is an example الله says in this ayah و أما ثمود as for the people ثمود the people of ثمود الله says فهديناهم we guided them فاستحب العما but they gave preference and they started to to like to be blind from guidance that's what they wanted so if Allah guided them then how did they end up in the health line how they disbelieve in them the guidance here doesn't mean to bring them to the path straight path sorry it doesn't mean to place a hack in their hearts what it means is that الله showed them the straight path that's the first type it is the one that was affirmed for the Prophet ﷺ as well و إنك لتهدي و إنك لتهدي إلى سراط المستقين are you with me و إنك لتهدي إلى سراط المستقين and verily you guide to the straight path this one was affirmed for him صلى الله عليه وسلم there's another type of guidance this type the second type of guidance is the one Allah only does and no one else can do this other than him who would this is who that بمعنى التوفيق والإلهم it is actually to place the hack in the person's heart to make them accept the truth and this is negated from the Prophet ﷺ هذا this one هو المنفيه عن الرسول this is negated from the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم ولا يقدروا ولا يقدروا عليه إلا الله تعالى and no one is able to do this one except Allah as he said in the ayah إنك لا تهدي من أحباب ولكن الله يهدي من يشاء محمد you can't guide whoever you want you can't but Allah سبحانه وتعالى He guides whoever he so based on that what do we know that the guidance that was affirmed for him and the guidance that was negated from him we need to know that there are two different type of guidance so after the sheikh brought this one he said الحمد لله الذي أرسل رسوله بالهودة then he said the Deen of the Haq brothers is what صالح righteous actions العمل الصالح righteous actions the word brothers Deen the word Deen is from those words that have so many meanings just like the word طاعة obedience and the word حكم if you look at the Quran and Sunnah and you follow its meanings there's a lot of meanings أحمد شاكر well known محدث أحمد شاكر his brother محمود محمد شاكر because the brother of أحمد شاكر he has a book called أباطيل و أسمار where he basically talks about historical words that came from the pre-islamic time and those words were used but they had so many meanings so many meanings and والله أحمد شاكر as he's a muhadith أحمد شاكر his brother was an adib literature he was at the pinnacle لغوي something else and he was also a historian مؤرخ a historian so طارب علم a student of knowledge he should look into the works of الشيخ محمود محمد شاكر the brother of أحمد شاكر so the sheikh he brought الحمد لله الذي أرسل رسوله بالهداع و دين الحق يوظهره على الدين كله و كفى بالله شهده why did Allah set down the pre-islamic guidance and دين الحق ليوظهره على الدين كله ممعنة ليوظهره على الدين كله it means ليعليه to make it superior على جميع الأديان all of all the religions to give it superiority above all religions بالحجة والبيانة والجهد but how is it going to be above all religions it's going to be above all religions by way of proof you bring out the proofs and you bring it out there this religion is a religion that has to be above all religions it is by way of proof it is also by way of clarity بيان and it's also by way of jihad by way of what jihad fighting with disbelievers and enemies of Allah it happens in all those forms and all those ways until what until this religion it becomes apparent and it becomes it prevails over all religions and that is how Islam spread it's spread by those proofs clarity and jihad all of them are working together and then the sheikh said وكفى بالله شهيدا الله is sufficient sufficient سبحانه وتعالى in witness but what does he mean here witness that the prophet is a messenger from Allah أنه رسوله and your brothers these verses are the verses that give طمعنينة القلب even if the people turn you down even if the people turn away from you even if the people disbelieve in you even if the people question you what is enough for you is what وكفى بالله شهيدا وكفى بالله شهيدا it is enough that Allah is your witness it is enough that you have Allah who سبحانه وتعالى who testifies to this but the prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم Allah is his witness that he is a messenger you see أن الله تبارك وتعالى is also what ومطلع على جميع فعاله الله ينظر الأفكارات من the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم وانه يتباركه وليس فقط وانا صلوا على أعدائه وأن الله يتبارك إلى المسيجة على جميع فعاله الله is the one he is sufficient for you محمد don't worry everyone can let you down I'm here for you you see and this إخواني my brothers and sisters is a دلالة تنقاطع a clear cut evidence على ستق هذا الرسولي that the prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was truthful because if he was lying and he was making up these things that Allah have given in victory that Allah have supported him and supported him no rather Allah would have destroyed him as يساري صورة الحاقة ولو تقول علينا بعض الأقاويل ولو تقول علينا بعض الأقاويل محمد if you made up some statements against us not a lot it's some بعض الأقاويل some statements if you just made up and added it to the Quran verse is here and threw it in لأخذناهم منه باليام we would have grabbed you with our right hand ثم لقطعنا منه الوتين and we will cut your jugular vein out of you we will destroy you kill you if you do that so this آية هو الذي أرسل رسوله بالهدى ودين الحق اللي يوظهره على الدين كله وكفى بالله شهيده this is is the آية or evidence to show that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he was truthful and he never lied and that's why Allah did not do that to him Allah spread this religion for him الله gave him the upper hand over his enemies at the time they put him low they criticized criticized him and his household they didn't just leave him but they moved on to his wife as well and they called her aizaniah they said she committed zina and he never came across in the life of the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم a day worse than that never never came a day like that to him عليه صلى الله عليه وسلم where his own wife is accused of zina you can imagine how it is and سبحان الله the issue reached some of the sahabas and they actually thought that it was correct some sahabas where جلا no one carried it on they mentioned the story رضي الله تعالى عنه may Allah be pleased with all of them so this my brother means that everything الله تعالى is the one who gives what victory and he's going to protect his religion he's going to you just have to come with what you just have to put the effort down you just have to do what you just put the effort forward وأشهد what I testify to اللا إله إلا الله ما معنى وأشهده إميذ وقره وأعترفه I testify اللا معبودة بحقه إلا الله that there is none واذي واشيب except الله تعالى that's what I testify to وحده لا شريك لها again it is what it is اي تأكيد لما تضمنت شهده اللا إله إلا الله it means if you will if that what was what was already mentioned is just emphasizing on that وحده لا شريك لها is what إلا الله and وحده they're good إلا الله and وحده are strengthening each other لا إلهنا يلا شريك لنا asked تأكيد emphasizing on it which is what that which was already been said so the نفي and the إثبات both of them that were in it because those are the those are the two pillars in which the شهاداتين stands on both of them have been emphasized with وحده لا شريك لها so the وحده as I said is a تأكيد للإثبات لا شريك لها is what تأكيد للنفي it's an emphasis for the negation the sheikh went on to say اقرار به وتوحيده اقرار به وتوحيده both of them are مزدر ذبو now اقرار is a مزدر توحيدا is what وحده وحده توحيدا is the master so what are they both also doing here right now the sheikh was also emphasizing what you mentioned again are you with me is also نعم so the sheikh is trying to say my توحيد is اخلاص sincerity في كل عبادة in all of my عبادة whether it's قولية from statements that I say or فعلية an action which I do or اعتقادية or a belief that I have all of them are sincere thoughts of Allah وأشهد وانا I also testify وقر بليساني وأعتقد بقلبي I testify with my mouth and my tongue and I also believe in my heart which is what أن محمد and that prophet محمد عبده ورسوله that he is his slave and his messenger and when he says he's his slave and his messenger this is what the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is and I want you to learn all this point which is very important our prophet محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he's not reached قولوية he hasn't he's not إله so he's below that so he's an abd he's a slave and he's not an ordinary slave so he's a رسول so he's at that level if you try to put him lower than that level it's disbelief if you put him above that level it's disbelief both are disbelief if you put him below a رسول you're a kaffir if you put him above a slave that you're a kaffir and that's what he meant عليه الصلاة والسلام لا تطروني don't go overboard with me كما أطلت النصار عيسة منه مريم don't take me overboard like the christians took عيسة منه مريم above his don't do that to me I'm a slave that's my level don't take me above that and he's also a messenger don't take him below his level don't take him below his the christians what did they do to عيسة منه مريم they took him above his normal status being a slave صح didn't they do that what did they become because of that كفار what did the jews do to عيسة منه مريم they put him lower than his level and they said he's not even a messenger he's nothing are you with me so they will be both disbelievers so our messenger صلاة والسلام we have groups that do that today we have a group that what who has taken him above his status they say he knows all the everything he knows everything all the unseen he knows everything they're not muslim they're kufar they're not what they're not muslim they're kufar because الله تبارك وتعالى he says عالم الغيبي الله is the one who knows the unseen الله is the one who knows the unseen عالم الغيبي فلا يهذر على غيبي أحد and he doesn't make it apparent to anyone from his creation سبحانه وتعالى صحيح سبحانه وتعالى so that saves a person from what الإفراط والتفريط do not go extreme both ways الإفراط والتفريط to go short above the status of his صلى الله عليه وسلم then the sheikh said وأشد أن محمد العبد هو ورسوله صلى الله عليه وقت الصلاة لغة وقت صلاة نموستيقية it means what it means الدعاء what does it mean here technically well what would we mean it here right now that we're speaking وأصح ما قيلة في معنى الصلاة من الله على الرسولي when we say الله sent salutation on the messenger what it means is that that which بخاري narrated in his صحيح and you can't just say بخاري narrated and just leave it like that but what you have to say is رواه البخاري معلقا بخاري narrated it with معلق but he narrated it with what بيرسيغة الجزن البخاري بوت إن كتابه تفسير بوت إن كتابه تفسير in the in the in the in the ayah which what إن الله وملايكته يصلون على النبي يا أيها الذين آمنوا صلوا عليه وسلم تسليم وسلم وتسليمه إن ذا آية إمام البخاري رحمه الله آفته بوت إن كتابه تفسير and then he put this back he put the call of أبي أبو عالية he said عن أبي عالية sorry عن أبي عالية أبي عالية رضي الله تعالى عنه السن صلاة الله على رسوله ثناؤه عليه في الملائل أعلى the salah from الله تعالى تعالى means ثناؤه praising him في الملائل أعلى in the in the gathering of his angels الله praise the Prophet ﷺ in the gatherings of his angels he's praising him that is what it means very good
