Virtues of the Ahlul Bayt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hudhayfah radiyallahu \u2018anhu says:<\/strong>
\nMy mother asked me, \u201cWhen do you plan to meet the Prophet \ufdfa?\u201d
\nI said, \u201cI have not had a planned time to see him since such and such time.\u201d
\nShe rebuked me, so I said to her, \u201cLet me go to the Prophet \ufdfa so that I may perform Maghrib (prayer) with him, and ask him to seek forgiveness for you and I.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, I came to the Prophet \ufdfa, and I prayed Maghrib with him, then he prayed until he prayed \u2018Isha. Then he turned and left, I followed him and saw someone come to him and speak in a soft tone.<\/p>\n

He then heard my voice and said, \u201cWho is this?\u201d
\nI said, \u201cHudhayfah?\u201d
\nHe asked, \u201cWhat is your need?\u201d<\/p>\n

I told him what had occurred, and he said, \u201cMay Allah forgive you and your mother.\u201d
\nHe then said, \u201cDid you not see someone had come to me?\u201d
\nI replied in the affirmative.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cIndeed, it was an Angel that never descended to the earth ever before tonight. He sought permission from his Lord to greet me with peace and to give me the glad tidings that Hassan and Hussain are the leaders of the youths of the people of paradise and that Fatimah is the leader of the women of paradise.\u201d [Musnad Imam Ahmed, Hadith: 22818]<\/p>\n

Loving the Ahlul Bayt<\/strong>
\nThis afternoon we continue to look at ways in which we need to manifest our love for the Ahlul Bayt<\/p>\n

Knowing the rights of the Ahlul Bayt without extremism nor negligence:<\/strong>
\nTowards the Ahlul Bayt of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) people have been divided into three categories, between exceeding the proper bounds and negligence and the straight path.<\/p>\n

The first category:<\/strong> Those who have exceeded the proper bounds in terms of Ahlul Bayt\u2019s rights. These are who are rude to them and treated them unjustly.<\/p>\n

The second category:<\/strong> Those who went too far in their love, going beyond the proper Islamic limits therein and went to extremes towards Ahlul Bayt.<\/p>\n

The third category:<\/strong> The moderates and the just, who abandon the way of the former two categories and are the middle ground between the both of them.<\/p>\n

Al-\u2018Allamah Muhammad Siddiq Hasan Khan R said:<\/strong>
\n\u201cThis love for them is obligatory and enjoined upon every single individual of the nation, and whosoever is withheld from it, he has indeed been excluded from a lot of good\u2026 for indeed the truth is between exaggeration and negligence.
\nIn the same context \u2018Allamah Mahmud Shukri al Al\u00fbsi said:<\/p>\n

\u201cMany people towards the Ahlul Bayt and the companions are between al-tafrit (exaggeration) and al-ifrat (negligence), and what is between both of them is the straight path, may Allah, the Almighty make us firm on that path\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
