A few months ago Masjid ash-Shura, from Norfolk, Virginia came as an umrah group.
By the grace of Allah and the permission of its organisers, such as our brother Raha Batts (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) who translated this lecture, a few of the brothers living in and around Makkah were allowed to attend the two lectures that were being delivered on Jumu'ah the 1st of Rajab 1440, for the umrah group.
Here I present to you that recording I made that evening with the consent of our brother and was later posted on their SoundCloud account.
Of the two lectures being delivered that evening (the second being by our Shaykh Mustafa Mubram (hafidhahullah Ta'ala), I sought permission from our brother Raha to be allowed to post some of extracted fawa'id from the first lecture that was delivered by Shaykh Ahmad az-Zahrani (hafidhahullah Ta'ala), on my website. The Shaykh has been highly praised by our Shaykh, the Allaamah Rabee' ibn Haadee 'Umayr al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala).
As you will notice that I have left the title as I had labelled it after the kalimah was delivered.
In it, the Shaykh (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) brings 6 key principles, as you will see, that are timely reminders in the religion of al-Islam for how we should behave during times of fitan (pl. of `fitnah (trials, tests & tribulations)) such as the time we (Ahlus-Sunnah) are going through right now.
