Al-‘Allāmah Muqbil Al-Wādi’ee: “How far, how far indeed! That we should be swayed by idle rumours and false reports…”

books old hadeeth

Al-ʿAllāmah Muqbil Ibn Hādi Al-Wādiʿee (rahimahullāh) said:

“How far, how far indeed! That we should be swayed by idle rumours and false reports. With all praise due to Allāh, we witness in the course of this daʿwah that which never even crossed the mind, nor entered the imagination.

And we taste, with praise due to Allāh, from the sweetness of knowledge that which makes us forget every toil, tiredness, difficulty and hardship. Knowledge has become, praise due to Allāh, more beloved to us than all the delights of this worldly life.”

هيهات هيهات؛ أن نتأثر بالأراجيف، ونحن – بحمد الله – نجد من سير الدعوة ما لم يكن يخطر بالبال، ولا يدور في الخيال،
ونجد – بحمد الله – من حلاوة العلم ما يُنسينا كل المتاعب والمشاق.
وصار العلم – بحمد الله – أحبَّ إلينا من جميع ملاذ الحياة.
