From my halaqa on Marriage: Ibn al-Jawzi's أخبار الظراف والمتماجنين has a chapter on how witty women are. Eloquent male poets/scholars have been brought to defeat in it by women simple in occupation/beauty etc. You can never win an argument, husbands.

There are so many subtle rules within the Canadian parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy laws that are based upon injustice (to either parties). For example, landlord and tenancy rules. We need to move beyond "if the MP will say free palestine" - for votes.

Despite authoring no books, the lineage of influence that starts from Sh Sa'id al-Halabi (from his two famous students) until today in Damascus is self-evident.

There’s some quite important information that’s left untranslated by mistake. Another reason you need an expert to teach you this book.

Whilst I am not a fan of this journalist, he does a good job addressing the Pakistani trend of normalizing secularization and insulting Islamic values. Something the scholars still turn a blind eye there to. youtu.be/LDIUUPXMg-Y?si=npL4…

Sh Wahbi relied on one of the handwritten manuscripts for Multaqa as did Sh Sa’id. However they’re named slightly different (the libraries). But Sh Sa’id had access to hundreds of manuscripts. And he went through all and selected a couple to use. (1/2)

I recommend having both copies as (thank God) its printed as one volume and if you’re studying it then you can compare the matn where needed whilst having the taliqat of Sh Wahbi.

Since Sh Waleed is offering a course on it and Sh Faraz (may Allah preserve him) has done extensive durus on it; take benefit of it. I relied on older prints during my study of it (I didn’t have the new prints nor money to buy them before I saw they’re on PDF).

Shaykh Wahbi Sulayman al-Ghawiji has always busied himself in reading, studying and *writing* since his early days from when he arrived in Damascus. I didn't know this when I met him in 2012/2013. If I knew I would've wanted to preserve all his unpublished or unknown works.

Before every section of social media was a different app, FB had "Notes" which many scholars wrote and they were quite beneficial.

Salam alaykum, where can I find PDF's of Shaykh Wahbi Sulayman Ghawiji's books in *Albanian*? AI has not been of any help. Here's an image attached of what I am looking after

When discussing those unable to do amr bi'lmaruf wa nahy 'an al-munkar, Sh As'ad al-Sagharji mentions: "and he only has to hate the sin and denounce it with his heart and boycott its perpetrators and not attend the places of sins and evils." In our time this can mean podcast etc

Going over this today with students (guest lecturer). The mufti, Sadiq al-Ghiryani, best renowned for his Mudawwanat al-Fiqh al-Maliki also wrote this. Its concise and easy to understand and does not overwhelm the reader. (1/2)

The format he uses (which Shaykh Muhammad Mustafa al-Zuhayli also does in his Qawa’id book): • Name of the Qa’idah • Other wordings • Clarifications and Exceptions • Examples within Maliki fiqh. The name is in the title. Al-Wanshiri and al-Manjur, two underrated works.

Shaykh Muhammad 'Abd al-Latif al-Farfur often mentions and cites al-Attasi's Sharh on the Majalla. The amount of pages Sh spends on Fiqh and it's nuances is remarkable. Precursor to introducing the legacy of Ibn 'Abidin (and the love the Aal Farfur had for him).

قال عليٌ رضي الله عنه: «إذا حُدِّثتم شيئًا عن رسول الله ﷺ فظنوا به الذي هو أهدى، والذي هو أتقى، والذي هو أهيأ».

I can’t stress this enough. al-Mawardi quotes in his Kitab Adab al-Dunya wa’l-Din: وَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْحُكَمَاءِ: الْحِرْصُ مَفْسَدَةٌ لِلدِّينِ وَالْمُرُوءَةِ، وَاَللَّهِ مَا عَرَفْتُ مِنْ وَجْهِ رَجُلٍ حِرْصًا فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّ فِيهِ مُصْطَنَعًا.
