Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

 

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Some body send me an email ,the details are below , u will understand it while reading , Please suggest What should i do , or how should i react , Mail said that i have to forward it to everbody , Please read---

This is true. From Madina Sheikh Ahmed has sent this news. On a Friday Sheikh Ahmed fell asleep reading the Quraan. Then he dreamt the Prophet Muhammed (saw) standing in front of him and saying that in one week seven thousand people died but not even one was a true Muslim. None did what ALLAH wanted. He also said now is a bad time.

These days Wives don`t look after their Husbands, Girls go round without being covered, they do not respect parents or others, Rich do not look after the poor, they do not give gifts or money or do not give fulfill zakaat. He also said to Sheikh Ahmed make people understand to give zakaat, To do prayer and to keep fast. The Day of Judgment is near.

When there is a single star in the sky, straight away the path of forgiveness will close. The writing in the Quraan will disappear (vanish). The Sun will lower itself with earth. The Prophet said whoever reads this news to someone else, " I WILL ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT MAKE HIM A PLACE IN PARADISE, AND IF SOMEONE DOES NOT BELIEVE THIS NEWS TO BE TRUE THEY WILL BE BANISHED FROM PARADISE" If a poor person gives out this news to other people his/her good wish will come true. Sheikh Ahmed said if this is not true then my death will be off a Non-Muslim. The Prophet said "KEEP FAST, DO PRAYERS, GIVE ZAKAAT AND GIVE KINDNESS TO THE POOR"

Whoever Forwards this will get his/her reward in three days.
One Person forward it to 40 people he had 8,000 thousand, take profit in this business. One Person did not believe this news and his son died. One kept saying he will forward it today, tomorrow but never forward this news he died as well.
PLEASE DO NOT THINK THIS IS NOT TRUE. PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE

Answer:

 

Chain letter

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Allah Says in His Holy Quran Chapter 35 Surah Fatir verse 2:

2        What Allah out of His Mercy doth bestow on mankind there is none can withhold: what He doth withhold there is none can grant apart from Him: and He is the Exalted in Power Full of Wisdom.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verse 160:

If Allah helps you none can overcome you: if He forsakes you who is there after that that can help you?  In Allah then let believers put their trust.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 9 Surah Taubah verse 51:

Say: "Nothing will happen to us except what Allah has decreed for us:  He is our Protector";  and on Allah let the believers put their trust.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah Anaam verse 17:

17      If Allah touch thee with affliction none can remove it but He; if He touch thee with happiness He hath power over all things.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 33 Surah Ahzaab verse 3:

And put your trust in Allah Alone; and enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.

 

Dear and Beloved Brother in Islam, the origin and distribution of such chain letters which claim to bring good to those who obey its contents and/or distribute them to others, or evil if they do not obey their command…. are absolutely and totally baseless, and have absolutely no relation to the happenings in one’s life.  Everything, and I repeat everything that occurs in the heavens and the earth happens with the Permission and Will of the Lord Most Majestic; and the Will and Permission of the Lord Most Supreme does not depend on such self-invented baseless ‘chain’ letters based on the dreams of a supposed ‘Sheikh Ahmad’ from Madinah!!!!!

 

To believe that the distribution or non-distribution of such chain letters or anything else can bring about good or evil  in the ‘unseen’ would be a manifest form of ‘shirk’ in the Sight of Allah Subhanah; and the believers who sincerely believe in Allah and the Last Day must absolutely abstain from indulging in such absolute and utter  belief of falsehoods, fears, threats, whims, and conjectures!   

 

When one receives such ‘chain’ letters which claim to bring about good or evil, absolutely disregard and discard them; put your full trust and belief in none save your Lord Creator, and rest absolutely assured and contented in the solemn belief and knowledge that everything, absolutely everything is in the Control and Domain of none other than the One and Only Supreme Lord of the Universe. 

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,
