تَدَبَّرْ كَلاَمَ اللهِ وَاعْتَمِدِ الْخَبَرْ ... وَدَعْ عَنْكَ رَأْياً لاَ يُلَائِمُهُ أَثَر

Regarding the verse: "And the mosques are for Allāh, so invoke not anyone along with Allāh (72:18)."

Qatādah (d. 117) said: "When the Jews and Christians entered their churches and synagogues, they would commit shirk with Allāh. Therefore, Allāh commanded His Prophet to make the invocation purely for Him alone when he entered the mosque."

The Prophet's (ﷺ) uncle, al-ʿAbbās bin ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib (d. 32), was once asked:

"Are you older (akbar) than Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ)?"

Al-ʿAbbās responded by saying: "He (ﷺ) is greater (akbar) than me, though I was born before him."

May Allāh be pleased with al-ʿAbbās.

It was said: “They are being punished for not paying taxes.”

Our hearts are heavy with the loss of the Grand Mufti, Abdul-Aziz Al ash-Shaykh.

May Allah encompass him with His mercy and forgiveness, and admit him into the highest levels of Paradise.
