Sacrifice is an act of worship, and worship can only be done for Allah alone; the one who does it for anyone other than Allah is a mushrik (polytheist).

Allaah says:

قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّـهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ۖ وَبِذَٰلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

Say, "Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying are for Allah, Lord of the worlds. No partner has He. And this I have been commanded, and I am the first [among you] of the Muslims."

[al-An’aam 6:162-163]

It is forbidden to eat that which Allah’s Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering and that which has been slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allaah, Allah says,

حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَيْتَةُ وَالدَّمُ وَلَحْمُ الْخِنزِيرِ وَمَا أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللَّـهِ بِهِ

Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah,

[al-Maa’idah 5:3]

‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib (may Allaah be pleased with him) narrated that: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said:

لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ ذَبَحَ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ

“may Allaah curse the one who offers a sacrifice to anything other than Allaah.”

[ Muslim (1978)].

If a person offers a sacrifice to anyone other than Allaah, whether he mentions the name of Allaah over it or not, it is major shirk that puts one beyond the pale of Islam and the meat slaughtered by him is not halaal; rather it is dead meat and it is haraam to eat it.

Offering a sacrifice to anyone other than Allaah is shirk, and the ruling on the meat is the same as the ruling on dead meat: it is not permissible to eat it, even if the name of Allaah was mentioned over it, if it is established that it was sacrificed for someone other than Allaah.

[Ref. The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas: Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 1/226]

Offering a sacrifice to the dead person mentioned, who it is claimed is a wali (close friend of Allaah or “saint”) is a kind of shirk (associating others with Allaah), and the one who offers the sacrifice to the wali is an accursed mushrik, and it is dead meat that it is haraam than a Muslim to eat.

[Ref. The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas : Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 1/194]

***** The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) Foretold Us That People Will Sit In Circles In The Mosques And They Will Have No Concern Except This World -- This Blameworthy Deed Is Disliked ***** Allaah Has No Need Of Them So Do Not Sit With Them ***** Because The Mosques Are Not Built For Such A Purpose Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: يَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَتَحَلَّقُونَ فِي مَسَاجِدِهِمْ ، وَلَيْسَ هِمَّتُهُمْ إِلاَّ الدُّنْيَا ، لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ فِيهِمْ حَاجَةٌ ، فَلا تُجَالِسُوهُمْ ‘There will come a time when people will sit in circles in the mosques and they will have no concern except this world.

Be Careful What Contradicts To The Divine Faith

*****Be Careful What Contradicts To The Divine Faith: n The form of feelings in the heart n The form of actions of the heart, n Spoken words on the tongue n And outward physical actions The form of feelings in the heart, such as hating Allaah or His signs, or His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him); this contradicts love and faith which support the actions of the heart. The form of spoken words, such as insulting Allaah, or it may be an outward action, such as prostrating to idols, or offering sacrifices to someone other than Allaah. Just as faith takes the form of actions of the heart, words on the tongue and outward physical actions, so too kufr may take the form of actions of the heart, words on the tongue and outward physical actions. [Ref. A’laam al-Sunnah al-Manshoorah, 177; Nawaaqid al-Eemaan al-Qawliyyah wa’l-‘Amaliyyah by Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez Aal ‘Abd al-Lateef, 36-46; Dawaabit al-Takfeer by Shaykh ‘Abd-Allaah al-Qarani, 183, 196].

NO GOSSIP MONGER WILL ENTER PARADISE

***** NO GOSSIP MONGER WILL ENTER PARADISE The motive in spreading gossip is either ill will towards the person of whom one speaks or to show love to the person to whom one speaks, or to indulge in unnecessary talk and falsehood. All of that is haraam. There is a great deal of evidence in the Quran and Sunnah (prophetic traditions) to show that gossip is haraam (impermissible), such as the verses in which Allah says: وَلَا تُطِعْ كُلَّ حَلَّافٍ مَّهِينٍ هَمَّازٍ مَّشَّاءٍ بِنَمِيمٍ “And do not obey every worthless habitual swearer. [And] scorner, going about with malicious gossip -” [Al-Qalam 68:10,11] وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ “Woe to every scorner and mocker” [Al-Humazah 104:1] It was narrated that Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: لا يدخل الجنة نمَّام “No gossipmonger will enter Paradise” [Agreed upon Hadith by Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. And it was narrated from Ibn M...
