Reserving a Place in the Masjid - Shaykh Abdur-Rahman ibn Ghaalib al-Muwasi

Here is a question that was recently asked to Shaykh Abdur-Rahman ibn Ghaalib al-Muwasi (hafidhahullah Ta'ala):

My question, may Allah preserve you, (the) Shaykh is doing a dars after maghrib and we come and pray Salatu-Asr.  We pray Salat al-Asr and people pray and some people stay, some people leave. People reserve the whole front row by leaving their bags and everything there, reserving that spot, preventing anybody else from sitting in the front row. They may leave the masjid, go away, do business, whatever they’re going to do. Come back five minutes before Maghrib, take that spot back and take that place, even though other people have been in the masjid all that time waiting. What's the ruling with regards to this?

He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) gave the following answer:
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]

Destructive Affairs a Believer Must Keep Away From - Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhali - Abu Idrees Muhammad

Here is a lecture that was delivered at Aston Masjid over 9 years ago by Abu Idrees Muhammad (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) and was posted on their official SoundCloud account, walhamdulillah.

As I am sure you are aware, on this website and our Telegram and YouTube channels we try to edit beneficial audios and put them out, to benefit us and you, the listeners.

Regarding this particular lecture, Abu Idrees (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) mentioned the following (slightly paraphrased) at the beginning of the lecture:

"...Tonight’s lesson,... as you may have heard from the brothers, that this lesson that we now have regarding Thalatha-tul-Usool is now going to be more focused on the new Muslims or the new student of knowledge, the one who is just starting to study. to give, Alhamdulillah, our brothers and sisters who have entered into Islam, to give them an opportunity to have some type of lessons where they can start their foundations. We don’t really have anything present like that at the moment in any of the two masjids that we have, here or Wright Street. So we have decided, and I apologize for the advanced students, that we did start the book and the level what we were doing, gathering between the different shuroohat (explanations), then we have to sacrifice for our brothers and our sisters. And Inshallah, there are much more advanced lessons if you want, alhamdulillah,to do the advanced studies over at Wright Stree and even here with our brothers, Abu Hakeem, Abu Khadeejah, and we have Aqeedatu-al-Wasitiyyah also, which is a bit more advanced than these lessons. So these lessons, Bithnillah, will be focused around the new Muslims. So those who are present and who have been following from the beginning of the book, apologies, but somewhat sacrifice for the sake of your brothers and sisters. So, alhamdulillah, what we have taken so far, the last two lessons, we did a quick recap of what we covered and we finished off on the note of that if a person wants to have salvation and success in this life, then that person must cling on to the book of Allah and the Sunnah of our Messenger Muhammad (sallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam). As it mentions, whosoever is obedient to the Messenger, then he will receive paradise. Whosoever is disobedient to him, meaning going against the way of his sunnah, discarding what he came with, then he will have a painful torment of the hellfire if Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala's) mercy is not showered upon him. So what we want to focus today is we left off on that note of not to be disobedient to the Messenger of Allah (sallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam). So, in today’s lesson, our Shaykh, Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhali (rahimahullah), mentioned regarding disobedience, now that we’ve on chapter of not to be disobedient to the Messenger, there are three things that Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhali has mentioned is Sharal-Mahd, that is pure and sheer evil. And these are the three causes of disobedience. So in today’s lesson, what we are going to cover (bi'ithnillah)s regarding those three things that a believer should stay away from and should strive against and fight. Because these are the three things that opens the door to evil and this is how mankind falls short through these three things. Thank you very much..."
