Ruling On Attending The Funeral Of a Non-Muslim
🎙️ Shaykh Aziz Bin Farhan Al-Anizi حفظه الله

11/06/2024

Allah says in surah al-Nisa':

[وَمَن يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا]

But whoever kills a believer intentionally, then his punishment will be the hellfire, remaining eternally in it. Allah is angry at him and curses him and has prepared a tremendous punishment for him. [93]

Commenting on this in his tafsir, sheikh Faisal Aal Mubarak wrote:

[قال أبو صالح في قوله {وَمَن يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ} : جزاؤه إن جازاه خلده في النار وإن شاء غفر له . وقد قال الله تعالى : {إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ} .]

Abu Salih said about this ayah: His punishment if Allah chooses to punish him is that He will be placed in the hellfire for eternity, but if He wishes He will forgive him. And Allah has said:

[إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ]

"Allah does not forgive associating partners with Him but He does forgive whatever is less than that for whom He wishes." [al-Nisa' 116]

💎 The Different Levels of People When Faced With Calamities

Shaykh al-Uthaymin رحمه الله said:

Know that when it comes to calamities the people are of different levels:

[1] The grateful
[2] The pleased
[3] The patient
[4] The displeased and anguished

As for the displeased and anguished, then he has committed what is impermissible. He is displeased with the decree of the Lord of all that exists, the One in whose Hands is the heavens and the earth, His is the dominion and He does what He wills.

As for the patient, then he has done what was obligatory. The patient is the one who bears the calamity. Meaning, he sees it as something bitter, as a hardship, and as something difficult. He dislikes that it has occurred. However, he bears it and withholds his soul from that which is impermissible. And this is obligatory.

As for the pleased, he is the one who is not worried about this calamity and he knows that it is from Allah, so he is completely pleased with it and there is no sadness nor regret in his heart because he is completely pleased. His state is higher than the patient.

Therefore being pleased is something that is recommended and not obligatory.

As for the grateful, then he is the one who thanks Allah for the calamity. However, how can he thank Allah for this calamity while it is a calamity?

The answer is from two aspects:

[1] He looks at the one who has been afflicted with that which is greater. So he thanks Allah that He didn’t afflict him with what he was afflicted with. And for this is the Hadith:

Don’t look at those that are above you (regarding the worldly life) but look at those that are below you, so that you don’t belittle the favors of Allah upon you.

[2] That the individual knows that what has occurred with this calamity is an expiation of evil deeds and an elevation of ranks, if he is patient. And that which is in the Hereafter is better for him than the worldly life, so he thanks Allah.

Also the most severe of those regarding calamities are the prophets, then the righteous, then those that are like them. So he hopes that by way of this he is from the righteous. So he thanks Allah for this favor.

💎 How can an individual remove the hatred and malice he has towards his brother from his heart?

Shaykh Muhammad al-Uthaymin رحمه الله said:

An individual can be free from these affairs by the following:

[1] The individual remembers the sins that he incurs due to this continuous enmity and that he misses out on the goodness due to the deeds being presented to Allah on Monday and Thursday. If there is enmity between two individuals, Allah says: Wait until the affair of these two are rectified. Meaning, the Lord doesn’t look at your deeds on Monday and Thursday if there is enmity between you and your brother.

[2] The individual knows that there is an abundant amount of good for the pardoner in pardoning and rectification, and that pardoning does not increase him except in honor. As the Prophet ﷺ said: None humbles himself for Allah except that He honors him.

[3] The individual knows that Shaytan- and he is his enemy- is the one igniting the flames of enmity and malice between the believers because it saddens him to see the Muslims united and loving one another. And he becomes happy when he sees them separated and when he sees that there is enmity and malice between them.

When an individual mentions the benefits and the harms, then it is essential that he takes what is beneficial and leave off what is harmful.

So upon you is to strive against your soul even if you humble it outwardly, because the reality is that you are honoring it. This is because whoever humbles himself for Allah, Allah will elevate him. None humbles himself for Allah except that He honors him.

Try it. You will find that if you were to pardon and rectify what is between you and your brothers, you will find that you will live a life of comfort and tranquility. Your heart will be at ease and you will experience happiness.

However, if there is enmity or malice in your heart against your brothers, then you will find yourself in a state of utmost grief and worry. And Shaytan will come to you and cause you to think negatively and have evil assumptions of your brothers. If they speak with statements that may be interpreted in a good way or may be interpreted in an evil way, he will make you interpret it in an evil way.

And this is despite the fact that it is legislated to interpret the statements of your brothers in a good way whenever this is possible.

So whenever it is possible to interpret it in a good way then do so, whether it is in speech or in actions. And don’t interpret it in an evil way.

Some people -and Allah’s refuge is sought- interpret the speech and actions of their brothers in an evil way. Then Shaytan pushes him to spy on his brother, follow up on him and look and what he does and what he says. So you always find him analyzing his speech and actions. If only he would interpret it in a good way. However, he interprets in an evil way. And this is from the incitement of Shaytan -and Allah’s refuge is sought-.

What is obligatory upon the believer is that if he sees something from his brother that may be interpreted as good or may be interpreted as bad, that he should interpret it as good as long as there is no strong proof that prevents him from that.

This is another affair. If something emanates from an individual who is known for evil, then there is no problem in interpreting his speech or actions as they are. As for the individual whose shortcomings are hidden, and he is not known for evil, if it is found in his speech or actions that may either be interpreted in a good way or in an evil way, then he should interpret it in a good way so that he is at ease.

Perhaps that individual, who follows up on the verbal and action-based shortcomings and mistakes of the people, Allah might put over him one that will follow him up while he is alone. Whoever follows up the shortcomings of his brother, Allah will follow up his shortcomings. And whomever Allah follows up will be exposed even if he is in the depths of his home.

💎 When the Habitual Actions Become Acts of Worship

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:

The truthful lover sees deception in himself towards his Beloved (Allah) when he does something which is not pleasing to Him.

So when he performs an action that his Beloved has made lawful (Mubah) for him, due to his disposition and his desire (to please Allah), he repents as if he were repenting from a sin.

And this affair continues to strengthen with him until the affairs that are lawful (Mubah) to him all turn into acts of obedience. So his sleep becomes recommended (Mustahab) and the days when he is not fasting are like the days when he is fasting. And the times when he is resting, and are like the times when he is awake and striving.

So he is always in this state of thanking Allah in times of prosperity and being patient in times of hardship. So he is always traversing towards Allah while he is awake and even while he is sleeping.

Some of the scholars have said: The habitual acts of the intelligent are acts of worship while the acts of worship of the foolish are habitual acts.

Some of the Salaf have said: The sleep of the intelligent and the days they are not fasting are better than the wakefulness (in prayer) of the foolish and the days when they are fasting…
