DAILY POST #21
The Taabi’i Imaam Al-Hasan bn Yasaar Al-Basri – rahimahullaah – said:
“Had a man met the earliest Predecessors and then resurrected today, he would not have recongnized anything of Islaam!”
The narrator said:
“then he placed his hand on the side of his face then said:”…except for this Salaat”
Then he said:
“But, wallaahi, that is not the case for a person who lived this era and see these vices but did not meet the As-Salafu As-saalih, and he sees the people of Bid’a calling to their bid’a and the people of dunya calling to their dunya, and Allah protects him from (falling into) any of that, and made his heart to incline toward the As-Salafu As-Saalih, finding out about their methodolodies, threading their footsteps and following their path. Such a one will have magnificent rewards.
Therefore, try hard to be their likes inshaa Allaah…”
(Ref: Al-Bid’a wa An-Nahy Anha, by Ibn Waddaah)
