The Religion is (Sincere Advice) - Shaykh Rabee' ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee

Here I present is classic audio that has been translated by many of the du'at through the years and delivered through a lecture and sometimes a series of lectures due to its immense benefits. 

I found the original lecture delivered by Shaykh Rabee' ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) in a live tele-link, many, many years ago on an audio tape that was given to me by Abbas Abu Yahya (hafidhahullah Ta'ala), maybe about 8 years ago.

As per usual, the audio had to be cleaned up through digital remastering, walhamdulillah, the results are being presented to you here.

May Allah keep us sincere and enable us to fully understand and implement what we hear, Aameen.

Abdulilah Lahmami (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) after praising Allah and sending blessings upon the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) he says that he that will be talking about a topic taken from the works of Imam al-Khattābi (rahimahullah Ta’ala).  His name Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Ibraaheem ibn Khattāb al-Busti’ al-Khattābi, who was born in a place called Bust in Afghanistan from the area of Kabul and born in the year of 388H.  He travelled and heard hadeeth in Makkah, Basri & Baghdad in Iraq, hearing hadeeth from the likes of Ibn Hibban,  Abu Saeed ibn Arābi in Makkah, and other than him, and Muhammad ibn Ishaaq ibn Khuzaimah, Allāmah Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Harawi (rahimahumullah Ta’ala) and many others. 
 
Imam adh-Dhahabi said about Imam al-Khattābi:  If you were to look at his books you would realise his knowledge and his adherence to the Sunnah and Hadeeth.
 
He has an explanation of Saheeh al-Bukhāri and Sunnan Abee Dawūd and much, much more. 

Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah Ta’ala) praised him in the Majmoo al-Fataawa and other places regarding his writing on the Names and Attributes of Allah.

The explanation of the hadeeth that is used as the focal point for this lecture is the hadeeth about being careful who you take as your friend with the explanation of Imam al-Khattābi.

Akhlaqiyat (Morals) - Shaykh Badee Uddin Shah

In this lecture that has been remastered from an audiotape that came into my possession more than 25 years ago, the Muhaddith of Pakistan, Shaykh Badee Uddin Shah (rahimahullah Ta'ala) addresses this significant affair for those who understand the Urdu language. 

The speed of this lecture has been reduced by 10%, to make it easier for the listener to understand.  Within it are many important lessons that can be learned from a scholar of the Shaykh's (rahimahullah Ta'ala) level.

May shower the Shaykh (rahimahullah Ta'ala) in His mercy and enter him into the highest place in Jannah, Aameen.
Here are some extracted benefits:

3 - Nationalism Leads to Splitting
4 - Spreading the Salam Leads to Love
5 - Straightening the Rows Joins the Hearts
6 - Lying Leads to the Hellfire
7 - Enjoining the Good & Forbidding the Evil
8 - We should Hate Evil, Instead we Participate in it!
9 - What is Meant by Establishing the Prayer?
10 - Allah Hears what you Say in the Prayer
11 - What are the Benefits of Giving Zakaat?
12 - What is the Punishment for Withholding Zakaat?
13 - Attaining True Success in this Life & being with the Messenger in Paradise
14 - The importance of Sincerity

Eesa (عليه السلام) is the Word of Allah, the Son of Allah, They Say! - Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhalee

The following question has been extracted from a lecture titled: Seeking Knowledge & Spreading it, by Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhalee (rahimahullah Ta'ala) and was translated by Abu Muadh Taqweem Aslam (hafidhahullah Ta'ala).

Like the original lecture posted at the above link along with all of the questions have been digitally remastered to remove excessive background noise from the recording, walhamdulillah.

The first question asked during this lecture is as follows:

Some of the Christians bring this doubt and say that Eesa (alayhi salam) is the speech of Allah.  So Eesa (alayhi salam) is the son of Allah, because he is the speech of Allah. So, how is that refuted or what is it's understanding?
