📚 New Weekly Live Lessons Dealing with the Rulers in Light of the Book and the Sunnah Authored by the Noble Scholar: Shaykh ʿAbd al-Salām ibn Barjas al-ʿAbd al-Karīm رحمه الله 🗓 Live Every Saturday and Sunday 🕒 Time: Between 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM (UK Time) 🎙 Read and Translated Live by: Abū Zakariyyā Aḥmad al-Ḥudaydī ▶️ YouTube Channel: Ship of Salvation Among the most important matters that every Muslim must understand is the guidance of the Qurʾān and the authentic Sunnah concerning the Muslim rulers: their rights, the obligations of their subjects, the limits of obedience, the correct manner of offering sincere advice, and the grave consequences of departing from the Prophetic methodology in dealing with those entrusted with authority. Throughout Islamic history, ignorance concerning this tremendous subject has contributed to division, turmoil, bloodshed, and the devastation of entire communities. From violent uprisings and armed rebellions to political assassinations, civil wars, the collapse of security, and the displacement of entire populations, the consequences of civil strife have often extended far beyond those who first ignited its flames. How many families have been torn apart, how many innocent lives extinguished, and how many communities deprived of the security and stability they once enjoyed? How many people have witnessed their homes destroyed, their livelihoods ruined, and their loved ones lost amid the flames of turmoil? Years may pass, rulers may fall, governments may change, and promises of a brighter future may be proclaimed, yet the wounds inflicted by such tribulations can remain for generations, leaving behind suffering that cannot easily be undone. The great Imām Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله warned against this grave danger when he said: “Denouncing kings and rulers by rebelling against them is the foundation of every evil and tribulation until the end of time … Whoever reflects upon the great and small tribulations that have befallen Islām will see that they resulted from neglecting this fundamental principle.” [Iʿlām al-Muwaqqiʿīn, 3/430–431.] It is therefore essential that Muslims learn these affairs through the understanding of the righteous predecessors, rather than through political passions, popular slogans, emotional reactions, or the methodologies of those who oppose the Sunnah. These are matters of religion, governed by revelation and understood in accordance with the guidance of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and his noble Companions, not matters to be determined by personal inclinations or the changing sentiments of the people. In this magnificent and immensely beneficial work, the noble scholar Shaykh ʿAbd al-Salām ibn Barjas رحمه الله elucidates the foundations of the Salafī methodology in dealing with the rulers, establishing its principles through evidences from the Noble Qurʾān, the authentic Sunnah, the narrations of the righteous predecessors, and the explanations of the great Imāms and scholars of this religion. It is a remarkable work distinguished by its carefully established evidences, scholarly explanations, and treatment of a subject of tremendous importance. We invite our brothers and sisters to attend these weekly lessons, benefit from this invaluable work, and acquire a sound understanding of this tremendous subject in accordance with the Qurʾān, the Sunnah, and the understanding of the righteous predecessors. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
