Written By Shaykh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz Explained By Shaykh Abdur Razzaq al-Abbaad
So this is a concise explanation upon the book of Shaykhul-Islam Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab entitled, Removing the Doubts of the People of Shirk. In this book, the author mentions ten odd doubts from the people of Shirk and answers them with excellent answers, relying upon textual proof along with an easily comprehensible meaning and clear expression. I ask Allah (subhaanahu wa ta’aalaa) to reward him for that and to benefit the servants through it. Indeed, Allah is capable of all things.
Arrogance is of two types: Arrogance toward the truth and arrogance toward people. The Prophet (sallahu alayhi wassallam) clarified both in his statement, “Arrogance is to regret the truth and belittle the people”
The meaning behind the statement, “Reject the Truth” is to discard it, be averse to it, and to deny it, and the meaning behind the statement “Belittle the People” is to disparage and disdain them, and deem people to be of no worth, seeing oneself above them.
It was said to one man, ‘What do you think of the people?” He said, “I don’t view them in any way except as flies.” So it is said to him, “Indeed they don’t think of you in any was except the same.”
In this volume, we have selected the all-important topic on Repentance (Tawbah) and the prohibition of backbiting (Ghibah) and tale bearing (Namimah). Discover the true meanings, details and evidences with respects to these subjects which are relevant to every Muslim household.
In this book, the author explains the dangerous concept of shrik through four simple principles. The sin of shirk – or associating partners with Allah – is the most reprehensible act that a person can do. It is for this reason that this sin is the one sin that Allah has promised He will never forgive.
The word, “good” is mentioned in an indefinite form (in Arabic) to attach a level of importance and clarify the abundance of good to whomever Allāh bestows Fiqh of the religion which by it is a means for one’s victory and success. The servant finding happiness in having Fiqh of the religion, devoting oneself to it, regularly attending the sittings of knowledge, being delighted with reading the books from the people of knowledge, also studying and memorizing is among the signs of good for the servant.
The servant should set aside a portion of his day for seeking knowledge. An avenue in which he acquires knowledge is that he doesn’t let a day pass by without obtaining it. Doing this should be among the objectives that the Muslim strives for daily and is serious about acquiring beneficial knowledge. Rather this is the most significant objective the Muslim seeks and strives for its obtainment.
The door to entering into Islam is ONE however the doors of exits are MANY. Shaykh has explained in this book those ten dangerous matters that takes a Muslim out of the fold of Islam.
It has been mentioned by the Scholar of Iraq, Nʿumān al-Ālūsī, in his excellent book Jalā al-ʿAynayn Lī Muhākamah al-Aḥmadayn, and Shaykh ʿAbd al-Salām b. Burjis mentioned this poem as being amongst the poetry of Ibn Taymīyah in his work al-Ṣaḥīḥ Min al-Naẓm al-Faṣīḥ Lī Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymīyah; and a number of Scholars have explanations of this poem, from them is Shaykh Ahmad al-Mardawī (d. 1236H) written almost two hundred years ago, Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymīyah (V) said: “As for Ahl al-Sunnah Wa al-Ḥadīth, then it is not known that any of their scholars nor righteous common-folk ever renounced their doctrine and creed. Rather, they were the most patient of the people upon that, even if they were tested with all types of tests and trialed with all types of tribulations.” Naqḍ al-Manṭiq, p. 42.
When the believer becomes aware that when Shirk is mixed with Tawheed it becomes corrupted just like when al-hadath corrupts purification then he should become aware that it is necessary to learn Tawheed and Shirk as it really is, so he would not fall into Shirk.
Because Tawheed by definition is the religion of Allah, it is Islam, it is the guidance. So when a person does any type of Shirk this nullifies his Islam, this nullifies his religion.
This is a brief essay in which I have included an explanation of what the Imam of the blessed da’wah Al-Shaikh Muhammad bin ‘Abdul-Wahhab (may Allah have mercy upon him) provided, as evidence for the conditions of (La Ilaha Illa Allah – there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah) and I have abridged it (facilitation by Allah in explaining the evidences of the conditions of La Ilaha Illa Allah).
