How to Protect Against Falling Back into the Same Sin - Hasan as-Somali

Here is a question that was answered by Hasan as-Somali (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) at the end of a joint lecture delivered with Abdulilah Lahmami (hafidhahullah Ta'ala).

The lecture was titled: Loving the Deen & Making Tawbah and took places at Markaz us-Sunnah, Alperton, London.

I previous broke the lecture down in to 3 parts: Making Tawbah by Hasan as-Somali, Loving the Deen - Abdulilah Lahmami, and the questions.

The question is: What advice do you have for somebody that is trying to stay firm upon their religion but is constantly surrounded by bad influences? How do you get away from bad influences? What is the best type of tawbah?

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]

Innovations Related to Funerals - Shaykh al-Albani - Anwar Wright

Recently, over approximately 8 months and 24 lectures, Abu Suhayl Anwar Wright (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) finished teaching a series at Germantown Masjid titled:Summarized Rulings on Funeral Rights from the book of Shaykh al-Albani (rahimahullah Ta'ala).

At the end of this series, he (hafidhxahullah Ta'ala) reads the 241 innovations related to this subject matter, that the shaykh (rahimahullah Ta'ala) noted in his book, while occasionally bringing additional benefits.

I have included the translator's (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) introduction to the final section (appendix) that has been included at the end of the book. This is followed by Shaykh al-Albani (rahimahulllah Ta'ala)'s explanation of his methodology in writing this book's final section.

After this, I have taken this section of benefits and broken them down into individual sections of innovations and posted them below.

1 - Innovations Related to Funerals - Translators Introduction
5 - Washing the Deceased 6 - Shrouding and Taking the Deceased to Be Prayed Upon
10 - Visiting the Graves
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]

Virtues of the Sahabah from Saheeh Muslim - Shaykh 'Umar ibn Muhammad Fallatah [Arabic Only]

Here are some excellent quality lectures titled: فضائل الصحابة (Virtues of the Sahabah) taken from the Explanation of Saheeh Muslim of Shaykh ‘Umar ibn Muhammad Fallatah (rahimahullah Ta'ala).

I have taken the original audio files and cleared up some of the background noise, by the permission of Allah.

The first four audios are about Abu Bakr as-Sideeq (radiAllahu anhu), followed by 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (radiAllahu anhu) and there are a total of 97 MP3's in the series, concluding with the virtues of Salmaan al-Farisee (radiAllahu anhu).
 
They are all in Arabic but that shouldn't in any way discourage you from downloading the full collection.  Load them on to your MP3 and listen to them.
 
This is one set of lectures that would possibly come very close to the top, if not at the very top of my “MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED LIST OF ALL TIME!” if I had one.
 
So, the links can all be found neatly organised for you to download from, the rest is up to you!
