Are you a Salafi? / Advice by Shaykh Saalih al - Fawzaan

Shaykh Saalih al - Fawzaan:

"And the foremost to embrace Islaam of the Muhaajirun and the Ansar

and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith)." (Surah At - Tawbah [9:100])

Exactly in Faith, which means with proficiency. Not only with a claim such as; "I am a Salafi and I am upon the Madhhab of (the) Salaf."

And if you ask him what the Madhhab of  (the) Salaf is? "Wallah I don't know...but I'm a Salafi."

Then we say (to that individual) that you're not a Salafi. You don't know the Madhhab of  (the) Salaf, then you're not a Salafi. How can you be with the Salaf and you don't know their Madhhab.

'And also those who followed them exactly in faith' 

If you want to learn the Madhhab of (the) Salaf, then LEARN the Madhhab of  (the) Salaf and what they were upon. So you can hold on to it, and follow it.

May Allaah give you all success in that which He loves and pleased with. And may Allaah's praise and blessings be upon Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions.

The Moon affects Health / Answered by Shaykh Saalih al - Fawzaan

Question:

 May Allaah be benevolent to you. Your eminence, this questioner says: al - Qahtaani, rahimahu Allaah, says in his Nooniya (poetry): "And the sleep on top of the roof underneath the sky, perishes and takes away the radiance of the bodies." What does this mean?

Shaykh Saalih al - Fawzaan:

Yes.

It means, according to them, that the sleep under the moon (lunar) ray is harmful to the health. This is harmful to the health and the bodies. He should therefore cover himself with a blanket/quilt, even if it is a light one.
