6 Important Outlooks During Any Affliction - Abu Suhailah 'Umar Quinn

In his book al-Fawā’id, Ibn al-Qayyim provides some useful outlooks directly related to sound belief in Allah’s Perfect Attributes that comfort people during hardships.  He say:

Whenever something predestined happens to a person that he dislikes, then there are six outlooks for him pertaining it:
  • The First is the perspective of al-Tawhīd (Allah’s Oneness): that it was Allah that predestined, preordained, and created it, whatever Allah wills happens and whatever Allah does not will does not happen.
  • The Second the perspective of ‘Adl (Justice): Allah’s judgement regarding Him has been executed and His ordainment is fair.
  • The Third is the perspective of al-Rahmah (Mercy): That Allah’s Mercy is more abundant than His Anger and Retribution, and His Mercy surrounds Him.
  • The Fourth is the perspective of al-Hikmah (Wisdom): That His Wisdom necessitated that; He did not predestine it without purpose, nor did He preordain it in jest.
  • The Fifth is the perspective of al-Hamd (Praiseworthiness): That Allah deserves praise for that in every way.
  • The Sixth is the perspective of al-‘Ubūdiyyah (Servitude): That one is nothing more than a servant in every way.  The laws and ordainments of his Master apply to him by merit of his being His property and servant.  He manages him under His judgements of predestiny just as He manages him under His religious laws.  He is the recipient of these laws which are applicable to him.

Now listen to Abu Suhailah 'Umar Quinn (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) as he breaks these points down;
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

The Awrah of a Woman in Front of a Woman - Abu Khadeejah ‘Abdul-Waahid

The following question is one of many that have been extracted from a lecture that I found on the YouTube channel of Umm Uthmaan al-Majariyyah (may Allah have mercy upon her).

In this particular piece of audio in which Abu Khadeejah 'Abdul-Waahid (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) was asked the following:

"What is the awrah of a woman in front of another woman? Is it permissible for a woman to wear tight clothes? For example, tight jeans and tight tops (a word not clear) western dress code. Which have become normal in front of other sisters, and likewise in front of fathers and brothers. Is it allowed and what is the evidence for it?"

Here is his (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) response:

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]
