Quotes to remember

11. It was narrated that Abu Hanifa said to Dawud al-Taa’i, “Why do you prefer seclusion?” Dawud replied, “To struggle against myself to leave disputing.” Abu Hanifah said, “Attend meetings, listen to what is said, and remain silent.” Dawud said, “I have done so, but I have found nothing heavier than this.”

Salafs sayings

It is reported that Imām Al-Zuhrī – Allāh have mercy on him – said:

Those of our scholars who went before us used to say,”Adherence to the Sunnah is salvation, but knowledge is taken away quickly, so the revival of knowledge means the stability of religion and worldly affairs, and the loss of knowledge means the loss of all that.”

Al-Lālakā`ī, Sharh Usūl I’tiqād Ahl Al-Sunnah article 136

Shaking Hands with the Unbelievers

Question:

May Allaah reward you, if the unbelievers extend their hands to shake hands, should one refuse [to shake hands]?
Answer:

If they salaam (greet) you and extend their hands to you, then shake their hands there is no problem with it. As for you [Muslim] iniating the salaam (greeting) and the shaking of the hands then this is not allowed.
