By one phrase: [several variations you can use]
DOING ENTAILS BEING
IN ORDER TO DO, ONE MUST BE
SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT EXIST CANNOT BRING ITSELF INTO EXISTANCE
‘CREATING’ IS AN ATTRIBUTE, ONE THAT DOES NOT EXIST, DOES NOT HAVE ATTRIBUTES
There exists a group of Muslims, who though they have correct Tawhid, they are like vipers in other parts of the Deen. They are at a level of outright stubbornness, in acknowladging an intergral part of the Religion, That is Apostacy.
There are some unfortinatly prominent people with large swaths of followers, who in alot of cases outright refuse to touch the subject of AL-Riddah, even though it is fard ayn to. It is encumbent on every single muslim, to know what takes them out of islam. You HAVE to know what violates your islam. Its not optinal.
There are three catagories of things that take you out of Islam. Apostate Sayings, Doings, Beliefs.
Beliefs-
Sayings
Doings-
this is a short overview of some of the things that remove you from Islam, most of them, remove you from Islam, wether you know the judgement or not. A person could do something they think is good, and be sincere about it, and it could result in them ending up into hellfire.
Rasululah Sallahu Alayhi Wa Sallum said: [translation] <<A person may utter a word he thinks harmless, which results in his falling the depth of seventy years into Hellfire.>> At-Tirmidiyyah
It is evident that a person must learn and avoid those things which invalidate their islam. Not doing so, could lead you to comiting kufr and loosing islam, and you wouldn’t even know it.
Whahabies – A group of people who follow Muhammad Ibn Abdulwhahab. Who in-turn followed the deviant Sheikh-ul-Kufr, Ibn Tamiyyah.
I’m not here to provide extensive arguement and its rebuttal concerning the Whahabiyyah. I am here to point out the reality of the Whahabiyyah’s case. And i will do it in summary form, by simply listing some points, and how the logic they use to interconnect these points is flawed.
The Whahabies say that Allah is above Al-Arsh. firstly, this statement is kufr when taken at literal form, which is the case of the whahabies. They say Allah is also not comparable or ‘like’ anything. … Now, above the Arsh, is an inscription that says “Allah’s Mercy is greater than his Wrath.” Whahabies will not dispute this. And the first error in their logic comes here. They say Allah is above the Arsh, they also say this inscription is above the Arsh. They mean both in the literal stance, ie, they are both phsyiclly above the arsh.
This is an outright comparison to the created things. The statement “Allah is above the Arsh, just as the Inscription is above the Arsh” Does not contradict, in their eyes. The Ayyats In Surah al-Ikhlas where Allah says he is not LIKE anything! This statement completely fits in their creed. It does not contradict the Whahabiyyah creed. But it obviously contradicts the Muslims belief. Because Allah is not similar to anything, part of this meaning is that Allah is not situated in a location. Such as above Al-Arsh.
The problem is that Whahabies are not able to logiclly connect the dots. And they use the statement ‘not like ours’ as a safe guard for their own minds. If they did not have “not like ours” to fall back on, they would go insane.
Lets take a look at another fallacy these Kufar have.
The Whahabiyyah believe Allah has literal figurative hands. No, i did not make a mistake, they believe Allah has “Literally Figurative” hands. They say Allah has hands not like ours. But i say my cat Lizzy, has hands not like ours also. They say Allah is incompariable because he has two right hands. But i can get an operation done that replaces my left hand with another right hand. the problem here is, aside from the obvious comparison. They fail to acknowlage a meaning for the word “Hand”, while at the same time they are adamant at considering the word “Yadd” in arabic to be hand. They say that Yadd MUST be hand, but they will not say that a hand MUST be something.
Lets look at this for a minute. The mind tells us that for something to be something, it must follow a set of attributes. A red ball is infact, only a red ball because red ball has a set of attributes that make it a red ball. Lets look at these attributes.
In order for an object to be a red ball, it must:
- be a ball
- be red
What is a ball?
-must be spherical
-must take up some amount of space, direction.
Now, we have clearly defined what is a red ball. If i get a blue cube…there is no doubt what so ever that it is not a red ball. Likewise, Hand is defined by a set of attributes, the most basic arttibutes are that a hand is:
- a part
- a tool
Both of which are not applicable to Allah. And these attributes are undoubtably what makes up a hand. Now for the problem. Whahabies deny both of these attributes for the hand. Basicly, they are not talking about a hand. They refuse to say that Yadd means other than a hand. But they also refuse to accept the only literal definition for hand. Their logic is flawed because they accept ONLY the literal definition for yadd as hand. But they reject the LITERAL definition for hand. Yes, Its pure insanity. Every ayyat where yadd is mentioned, a viable alternative to hand can fit in the meaning, but Whahabiyyah refuse this. They use a literal logic to say yadd is hand in all cases, but they refuse to use the literal logic on the next part, which is defining that hand.
Ive repeated myself alot in the past paragraph, but i will do it one last time. Insha’Allah
Whahabies believe the only way to interpert Yadd is in the literal sense, by accepting it as “Hand” But they then believe the only way to interpert Hand, is in a non-literal sense.
Subhan’Allah It is very clear the problems with deviant groups today. There is no group that it can be said that the issues about them are grey. Only that our understanding of those issues is grey. when you look at the whole picture, you can see the basic flaws in their belief.
Subhanallah, i also want to add to this disgust, that a brother of mine was in Philidelphia, and there was a school with whahabiyyah children, and THEY WERE DRAWING A BIG MAN WITH TWO RIGHT HANDS A FOOT A SHIN BONE AND A SMILING FACE, AND IT WAS SITTING ABOVE WHAT THE THINK IS THE ARSH..these children refered to this thing as Allah, The Creator of Everything. And that is the result of ignorant people following the likes of Shaikh ul Kufr Ibn Tamiyyah and Muhammad Ibn Abdulwahab. Their children are copies of the hindu children who draw a blue man with an elephant face and call it Ya Rabb.

Muu-sa-lim: [i]noun[/i]:
A person who must believe there is no god but Allah, and that prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Salam is the last messenger. Who must believe that Allah is not similar to A-NY-THING, anything, what so ever. Figureativlly, metephorically, phsyically, mentally and any other ‘lly’. Allah does not resemble man. Nor an animal. Allah does not resemble something that exists but which our mind cannot imagen. There is no other that exists anywhere, ever that is similar. It is not enough to say ‘Allah resembles nothing that we can imagen’ Rather, the most proper way to say this is..”Allah does not resemble anything”
Allah is not on the Arsh, he is not in your jugular, he is not infront of you when you speak, and he is not above you when you pray. He is not inside the Ka’baa. Allah is not anywhere, he is not ‘nowhere’ he is not attributed with designation, location, space or place. He is not ‘located in a place of un-place’. It is never a case where a person would look to a direction and see thier creator. It is never a case that a person would join or be with thier creator. Allah is not a body, a manifestation, a figure or an image flat or real. He is not a part of a whole, he is not a singular entity. He is not a number one, it is not a case that humans and creations are many, and Allah is one. Rather Allah is one in his uniqueness, Allah is not a numerical value.
Allah does not have parts, it is never a case that a part of Allah is there and a part is here. Allah does not have a hand, or a foot, or a tibia, or a face. Allah is not attributed with attributes of the created things. If ‘yadd’ means hand, it is an attribute of the created things, i have ‘yadd’, Allah does not. Allah has power. The power to create and uncreate. I, and you..do not. Allah has yadd, yadd is not a hand.
