Best of you

20. "The best of you are my generation, then those that follow them and then those that follow them. Then there shall come after them a people who will betray and be untrustworthy, will give witness even though they have not been asked to, will make vows yet will not fulfil them and obesity will appear amongst them." [Bukhâri]

Quotes to remember

22. `Umar ibn Abdul Aziz wrote to one of his governors and said, “Do not punish at the time of anger. If you are angry with any man, keep him in detention. When your anger is appeased punish him in proportion to his crime.”

Salafs sayings

Sins are like chains and locks preventing their perpetrator from roaming the vast garden of Tawhid and reaping the fruits of righteous actions.

The Ruling on Living with a Family when they do not Pray

Question:

What should a man do, if he orders his family to pray, but they do not listen to him? Should he live with them and mix with them, or leave the house?
Answer:

If these members of the family do not pray at all, then they are disbelievers, apostates, outside the fold of Islaam, and it is not permissible to live with them. But it is an obligation upon him to preach to them and implore them repeatedly, in the hope that Allaah may guide them, because the one that abandons the prayer is a disbeliever - may Allaah protect us. The evidence for this is to be found in the Qur'aan and Sunnah, the sayings of the Companions, may Allaah be pleased with them, and the correct view (of the scholars).
