I uploaded this video to show the danger the internet holds, due to the vast amount of information it contains, most of which is falsehood, and much of it is misguidance. Ibn Uthaymeen said this over twenty years ago, when the internet wasn't as prevalent, and the information it held was limited. Today, nearly everyone has access to the internet, young and old, male and female, rich and poor, so more baatil is spread by way of it, and more and more individuals are led astray by it. However, the internet has become an essential part of our lives today: we use it for work, study, and even shopping, which is why it is incumbent upon the Muslim to be moderate in his use of it, because, just as the Sheikh mentioned, many people who were once righteous, have been corrupted and destroyed by this fatal disease, assuming themselves capable of repelling the countless doubts and desires that lurk in its depths, as the internet has glorified and adorned a certain type of lifestyle, which many are mesmerised by and leave their religion to seek.

@@terencehank7206 Didn't u read what I said: I said it's become an essential part of our lives now. This was over 20 years ago. The internet was a new thing and it wasn't really necessary. In fact, this very Sheikh opened up his own website before he died.
While what you state is all correct, I would just like point out the fact, that such statements about a new technology by such scholars stops the whole ummah from becoming early adopters of the technologies and take advantage of it, which leads to the current situation of ummah. Muslims were the inventors and innovators during the golden era of the Islamic period and from there currently we are in such a state that any new technologies is always given the supposedly evil doing image by our elders. I know the scholars do study about Islam and then give out a statement but if such line of thought would be followed as described in the video, it would also mean, interest is banned in Islam, people give and take interest in currency system, although currency system is good and bad people have an option to get/receive interest if they use the currency system, so no one should use the currency system. It sounds absurd but it follows the same line of thinking. If some scholar doesn't understand the future implications, they should just say it outloud that they cannot judge, the famous example of imam Malik not passing a judgement on a topic for 20 years, because if someone stops the people from enjoying the resources that Allah has bestowed on them, such people will face Allah's wrath is mentioned in quran. Also last but not least I would like to point out that there is a certain sect in Islam whose only opinion , about each and every act that hasn't been performed by prophet is to be considered evil, harm, bad, etc is one of the contributing factors, not the only factor but one of the contributi g factor, for the Muslim ummah to remain backward in current era
I kind of agree with his opinion. Ive left all social media because I found myself in a downwards spiral. I used to be online all the time, now its only when I need to listen to scholars regarding an issue. Im from Malaysia and this is the only way I have access to the major scholars in our unmah today.
As someone who's been on the internet for more than 20 years, if I were to put on a scale between the good and the bad based on how it has affected people, the bad obviously weighs more.
So stop using the internet then, nobody's stopping you. Whilst your at it, go to the countryside and live your life their with your family. And then consider building your own version of the internet which is better, rather than continuously whine about how the internet you refuse to give up, is so bad.
Whilst my colleagues and classmates at school want to be singers and musicians, and use them as their role model, my goal is to be like sheikh uthaymeen RA
Just as general advice, thank Allah for have guiding you to this. It is only because of Him that this is your desire. If you were left to yourself you would be just like them. And don't compare yourself to them as this can lead to arrogance. Arrogance is a tremendous sin. Just remember that Allah is the One who has guided you to this goodness and be greatful to Him for that. And the best person to take as your rolemodel is the Best of Creation صلى الله عليه وسلم. Shaykh ibn Uthaymeen served the ummah and he is great, may Allah have mercy on him, but there is someone even greater to try to emulate.

The keyword of his fatwa is in the last minute of the video. He said "if the person fears that the Internet'll tempt him, then he should avoid it". That is logical and correct
I advise my muslim brothers and sisters to leave social media, I know there are certain apps you need to use to contact your family or for work, but other than that, leave all of it, keep this your goal for the next month, year, or even your life time, these times it is not surprising to see lost and depressed and uneducated people, but its surprising to see someone who is holding on his deen, doing what he is SUPPOSED to do in this life, not lost in unattainable pleasures. Subhan allah I did not know seeking knowledge, learning quran, and practicing islam (praying qiyam al lail, etc) was actually an attainable happiness in this life, you get closer to allah, and allah subhanahu wa ta'ala gets closer to you and you feel the inner peace
It's irony that without internet I would not be able to watch this wonderful lecture of Shaykh Ibn Uthaymin, jazahumulluhu khayran. Internet is one of the most dagerous fitnah for muslims now a days. May Allah (swt) protect and guide us.

And some so called western daees have the audacity today to say that our eastern scholars have nooo idea whatsoever what the west is dealing with. Here Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen Rohimahullah giving naseeha to the west as well the east that will help them for the next century. May Allah guide and protect us all.
As Muslims, we believe in the punishment of the grave. There are many narrations which verify its authenticity. One such narration is: The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said, "Seek Allaah's protection from the Punishment of the Grave, since the Punishment of the Grave is a fact/true." (Saheeh: At-Tabraanee in 'al-Kabeer' from Umm Khaalid bint Khaalid ibn Sa'eed ibn al-'Aas.) Our righteous predecessors have mentioned many stories in this regard, some of which are as follows: Ibn Abi'd Dunya (rahimahullah) mentioned that one of his companions said, “My brother died and I saw him in a dream. I said, "How was it when you were placed in your grave?" He replied, "Someone brought me a fiery flame and if it had not been that someone else made supplication for me, I think he would have hit me with it.” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.) Bashar b. Ghalib (rahimahullah) said, “I saw Rabia, on whose behalf I make frequent supplication, in a dream. She said to me, "Bashar b. Ghalib! Your gifts have been brought to me on plates of light, covered in silken cloths." I asked, "How can that be?" She replied, "That is what the supplication of living believers is like. When they make supplication for a dead person, that supplication is answered for them on plates of light, veiled in silken cloths. Then they are brought to the dead person for whom the supplication was said and they are told, 'This is the gift of so-and-so to you.'” ” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.) Amr bin Dinar (rahimahullah) said “The sister of one of the men of Medina died and he buried her. When he came back from the burial, he remembered that he had left something in the grave. He asked one of his companions to help him. His companion related that they had dug up the grave and found what they were looking for. Then the man said, "Let us dig further and find out what has happened to my sister." He lifted up one of the stones covering the burial cavity and found the grave filled with fire. He replaced it and filled in the grave again. Then he returned to his mother and asked, "What was my sister really like?" She replied, "Why do you ask about her when she is dead?" He said, "Tell me." She said, "She used to delay the prayer and she also used to go to our neighbours' doors, put her ear to them, and then tell other people what they said." ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.) One of the early Muslims said, "We passed by a watering-place on the way to Basra. We heard the braying of a donkey and asked the people there what the braying was. They replied that it was one of the men who used to be with them whose mother had asked him for something and he had told her to bray like a donkey. Since his death, this braying had been heard every night from his grave.” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.) The torment in the grave will vary according to the sins committed by the person in this world, whether he was a disbeliever or a disobedient Muslim. There are authentic narrations which describe this torment for the people who commit these sins. For example: 1 - Being struck with an iron hammer. It was narrated from Anas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:  “When a person is placed in his grave and his companions leave him, and he can no longer hear the sound of their sandals (footsteps), two angels come to him and make him sit up, and they ask him, ‘What did you say about this man Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?’ He says, ‘I bear witness that he is the slave of Allaah and His Messenger.’ It is said, ‘Look at your place in Hell which Allaah has replaced for you with a place in Paradise.’” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “And he sees them both. But as for the kaafir or hypocrite, he says, ‘I do not know, I used to say what the people said.’ It is said, ‘You did not know and you did not follow those who knew.’ Then he is struck a blow with an iron hammer between his ears and he screams a scream which everything around him can hear apart from the two races (of mankind and the jinn).” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1222.) 2 -7: Furnishings from Hell are prepared for him; he is clothed with fire; a door to Hell is opened for him; his grave is made narrow for him; he is struck with a great hammer which, if a mountain were to be struck with it, it would turn to dust; and he is given the tidings of torment in the Hereafter. Hence he will wish that the hour would never come. Ahmad (17803) and Abu Dawood (4753) narrated that al-Baraa’ ibn ‘Aazib said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) for the funeral of a man from among the Ansaar. We came to the grave and when (the deceased) was placed in the lahd, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sat down and we sat around him, as if there were birds on our heads (i.e. quiet and still). In his hand he had a stick with which he was scratching the ground. Then he raised his head and said, “Seek refuge with Allaah from the torment of the grave,” two or three times. Then he mentioned the soul of the believer and how he is blessed in his grave. Then he said: “But when the disbelieving slave is about to depart this world and enter the Hereafter, there come down to him from heaven angels with black faces, bringing sackcloth, and they sit around him as far as the eye can see. Then the Angel of Death comes and sits by his head, and he says, ‘O evil soul, come forth to the wrath of Allaah and His anger.’ Then his soul disperses inside his body, then comes out cutting the veins and nerves, like a skewer passing through wet wool. When he seizes it, they do not leave it in his hand for an instant before they take it and put it in that sackcloth, and there comes from it a stench like the foulest stench of a dead body on the face of the earth. Then they ascend and they do not pass by any group of angels but they say, ‘Who is this evil soul?’ and they say, ‘It is so and so, the son of so and so, calling him by the worst names by which he was known in this world, until they reach the lowest heaven. They ask for it to be opened to them and it is not opened.” Then the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) recited (interpretation of the meaning): “For them the gates of heaven will not be opened, and they will not enter Paradise until the camel goes through the eye of the needle.” [al-A’raaf, 7:40] He said: “Then Allaah says, ‘Record the book of My slave in Sijjeen in the lowest earth, and return him to the earth, for from it I created them, to it I will return them and from it I will bring them forth once again.’ So his soul is cast down.” Then the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) recited the verse (interpretation of the meaning): “And whoever assigns partners to Allaah, it is as if he had fallen from the sky, and the birds had snatched him, or the wind had thrown him to a far off place.” [al-Hajj, 22:31] He said: “Then his soul is returned to his body, and there come to him two angels who make him sit up and they say to him, ‘Who is your Lord?’ He says, ‘Oh, oh, I don’t know.’ They say, ‘What is your religion?’ He says, ‘Oh, oh, I don’t know.’ Then a voice calls out from heaven, ‘Prepare for him a bed from Hell and clothe him from Hell, and open for him a gate to Hell.’ Then there comes to him some of its heat and hot winds, and his grave is constricted and compresses him until his ribs interlock. Then there comes to him a man with an ugly face and ugly clothes, and a foul stench, who says, ‘Receive the bad news, this is the day that you were promised.’ He says, ‘Who are you? Your face is a face which forebodes evil.’ He says, ‘I am your evil deeds.’ He says, ‘O Lord, do not let the Hour come, do not let the Hour come.’” (This hadeeth was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Ahkaam al-Janaa’iz, p. 156) 8 - Being swallowed up by the earth. It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whilst a man was dragging his lower garment out of pride, the earth swallowed him up and he will continue sinking into the earth until the Day of Resurrection.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5345; Muslim, 3894) 9- The edge of the mouth being torn to the back of the head. 10- The head being smashed with a rock. 11- Being burnt in a tannoor oven 12- Swimming in a river of blood whilst being pelted with stones.
Ibn Taymiyyah, may God have mercy on him, is a sheikh of the Eastern religion. Western philosophers and thinkers are unable to reach a quarter of his intelligence and knowledge in philosophy, logic, and many sciences in which he was a genius. Whoever reads his books impartially and without bias will know the truth of my words.
Yeah, even a totally halal stuff will be bad if we do it excessively. Avoiding it isn't the key, our self-control is. Everything is halal except something Allah decides to forbid.
This is what the shaykh said in the last part of the video “quit internet completely if you fear to fall in haram” if you are strong enough to not fall in haram then you are ok to go
Exactly what I was going to say,let's not forget this was 20 years a go i belive,now days knowing how necessary the Internet has become maybe he himself would have changed his minde.
Totally agree with him. Internet has more evil than good. May Allah save us from all kinds of evil and fitnah and save our youth from such things. Aameen
Masha Allah combining the idea of the Hadith about the ad dajjal with the current internet usage is very smart. May Allah forgive him and the ummah and grant us Jannah Al firdaus. Amin.
Amin because I was noticing more sinister. Why is it when I think of something I see it come up on the internet. Invading my thoughts with technology, and am I giving these permissions by cookies ? Allahu Musta’an

SubhanAllah! He said the truth may Allah have mercy upon this Sheikh. At first we use internet for good things but then we fall into bad things and haram; May Allah protect us and guide us to the right path 🤲
this is true look at p+rn0graphy, cartoon, anime, women without awrah covered, dudes making small boys envious with their lamborghini, abusing themselves with music and haram and many more May Allah make us steadfast and only make us use the internet for our deen and dunya that benefits our akhirah
So trueee. The apps like Instagram and tiktok, even UA-cam is unavoidable of the filthly contents. No matter how long you persist to Islamic contents, you'll eventually end up landing in Harak contents, most of which contain music in the background even when the post is Islamic or even the verse of Qur'an sometimes. The best thing we can do is stay away from such apps.
What he is saying its very true.Internet its like a double edged sword.All he is saying is that if you can use it for good things like spreading the deen etc then go ahead. However if you will be tempted to use it for bad stuff like Fraud,Blackmail,porn which is mostly the case then abstained from it. May Allah forgive us all.
That's not what he is saying. His opinion is that internet is haram COMPLETELY because, you can access to a lot of haram there, and there is rule in figh, which says that getting rid of harm is more important than increasing benefit. That is his opinion as a mujtaheed, but I believe there is no ijma among scholars about it.

Ya Rabb, thank You for the perfection of Your signs and Your plan! This was perfectly timed for me! SubjanAllah, something innocent and even helpful can turn into fitna.

I have been kind and polite because he is teaching me about Islam but this video helps me to understand that I need to stay away from chatting to him completely.
It depends on what you use it for. It has the light and darkness at the same time so you choose. Dawa today can be made effectively with the use of internet. Even with the desermination of this information of our sheikh,I wouldn't have hear about it without the internet 😊😊😊
@Sani. Perhaps he saw the advent of those who tell the truth about Islam such as YT memri tv-australian preacher, kuwaiti cleric, syrian cleric, saudi cleric, al azhar uni. prof.
I still believe that it's the worst thing ever created because the benefits of it does not exceed the 1% than the 99% which it contains that it is haram, so the chances of you falling into haram is actually 99% and please don't say that some people haven't because through observations this statement seems to be correct.
We should not leave Internet, we should stay away from the evil side of Internet. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. We can’t leave the thing due to its disadvantages. We should focus on its bright side
Social media is mostly bad. Controlled by bad people and targeting teenagers. It's engineered to keep people addicted mostly kids. Tiktok, Instagram really, snap chat, others.
In my opinion fitna is everywhere whether a person is using internet or not if human has step in this world the exam begins for him/her The point is that a person who is using internet must use it with the knowledge of Islam with correct perspective and should know about what is halal and haraam in the Deen and one who attains taqwa of Allah will not go to anything wrong, one can use internet in a v good cause also .
The reality is he was right. We live in a time where the internet is essential for modern living but a by product is the exposure to a lot of rubbish and even filth, if one can only use the internet gor their essential needs that is better, but who actually does that?
Ironically here we are looking at this through internet. My brothers and sisters I do not criticize him because according to his perspective he is absolutely right. Its just my opinion lets just imagine the control,CEOs and founders were true believers how much beautiful it was supposed to be if we muslims were encouraged towards innovation.
Hé literally said it contains good and evil. The problem is that those who are in charge of controlling social media and data in general they know what they’re doing. They’re digging deep. It’s not difficult for them to conduct this industry and direct it to where they want it to be.

But, to interpret and explain them in a sorten way that the Prophet Muhammad( Peace and blessings be on him) and the Sahabah(ra), and even the Tabi-ien(ra) did not do and teached. Then we have to be sceptical about everyting that wich a so called schollar brings where there is no hard proof for it in wat he claims. Some things are hidden(Ghaib) for us, and how and when it will be happen. Only Allah( the Exaled the Most High) knows it, nobody else. But the Muslim has to belief in the things that are hidden( Ghaib) for us. This is a part of our belief according to the Qur'an and the Sunnah.
One of the greatest benefit of the internet is that it exposed Islam to the world. It's of course leading many to Islam and at the same time driving many out of it.

Good vs Evil exists on all platforms (society, people, multimedia, business etc. I am unsure when this was recorded but the shaykh in his opinion has totally nailed it. Internet can be used for good but what do we do, we become lazy, watching unnecessary things, follow things that are not appropriate or does not hold real value, give credit to illegitimate content, waste time and so much more. How many times have we upheld something good until we trap ourselves into something far worse. The problem with the Internet is that anything can be accessed at anytime and children are able to view things that is not appropriate. May Allah protect us all. Ameen ya rab

This is not really about the Sheikh, it is about you and your channel. The Sheikh said don’t use the internet. You say (in a titillating and clickbaity way) ‘imagine what he would say today’ - what is that supposed to mean? You then go on to say using the internet is a necessity, but that everyone should it moderately. What is that supposed to mean? If I say it’s nonsense it’s because that’s what I believe. If you want respect to earn it and not demand it.
@@terencehank7206 Stop twisting your own words. Look at your original comment. You were talking about the Sheikh's fatwa itself. I don't need your respect, but you need to respect the Sheikh and the rest of the scholars. My channel is only used to translate their speeches
I uploaded this video to show the danger the internet holds, due to the vast amount of information it contains, most of which is falsehood, and much of it is misguidance. Ibn Uthaymeen said this over twenty years ago, when the internet wasn't as prevalent, and the information it held was limited. Today, nearly everyone has access to the internet, young and old, male and female, rich and poor, so more baatil is spread by way of it, and more and more individuals are led astray by it. However, the internet has become an essential part of our lives today: we use it for work, study, and even shopping, which is why it is incumbent upon the Muslim to be moderate in his use of it, because, just as the Sheikh mentioned, many people who were once righteous, have been corrupted and destroyed by this fatal disease, assuming themselves capable of repelling the countless doubts and desires that lurk in its depths, as the internet has glorified and adorned a certain type of lifestyle, which many are mesmerised by and leave their religion to seek.
Please just take a second of your time to subscribe to our channel (make sure to click the notification button) and like the video, to receive a share of the reward, as we hope to spread the message of Islam by translating video clips of the scholars from Arabic into English, as we know the Muslims desperately need those who can convey the knowledge of the scholars to them.

@@terencehank7206 Didn't u read what I said: I said it's become an essential part of our lives now.
This was over 20 years ago. The internet was a new thing and it wasn't really necessary.
In fact, this very Sheikh opened up his own website before he died.
While what you state is all correct, I would just like point out the fact, that such statements about a new technology by such scholars stops the whole ummah from becoming early adopters of the technologies and take advantage of it, which leads to the current situation of ummah. Muslims were the inventors and innovators during the golden era of the Islamic period and from there currently we are in such a state that any new technologies is always given the supposedly evil doing image by our elders. I know the scholars do study about Islam and then give out a statement but if such line of thought would be followed as described in the video, it would also mean, interest is banned in Islam, people give and take interest in currency system, although currency system is good and bad people have an option to get/receive interest if they use the currency system, so no one should use the currency system. It sounds absurd but it follows the same line of thinking. If some scholar doesn't understand the future implications, they should just say it outloud that they cannot judge, the famous example of imam Malik not passing a judgement on a topic for 20 years, because if someone stops the people from enjoying the resources that Allah has bestowed on them, such people will face Allah's wrath is mentioned in quran. Also last but not least I would like to point out that there is a certain sect in Islam whose only opinion , about each and every act that hasn't been performed by prophet is to be considered evil, harm, bad, etc is one of the contributing factors, not the only factor but one of the contributi g factor, for the Muslim ummah to remain backward in current era
Very well articulated thank you
I kind of agree with his opinion. Ive left all social media because I found myself in a downwards spiral. I used to be online all the time, now its only when I need to listen to scholars regarding an issue. Im from Malaysia and this is the only way I have access to the major scholars in our unmah today.

As someone who's been on the internet for more than 20 years, if I were to put on a scale between the good and the bad based on how it has affected people, the bad obviously weighs more.
Agree internet is controlling us
So stop using the internet then, nobody's stopping you. Whilst your at it, go to the countryside and live your life their with your family. And then consider building your own version of the internet which is better, rather than continuously whine about how the internet you refuse to give up, is so bad.

Whilst my colleagues and classmates at school want to be singers and musicians, and use them as their role model, my goal is to be like sheikh uthaymeen RA
Just as general advice, thank Allah for have guiding you to this. It is only because of Him that this is your desire. If you were left to yourself you would be just like them. And don't compare yourself to them as this can lead to arrogance. Arrogance is a tremendous sin. Just remember that Allah is the One who has guided you to this goodness and be greatful to Him for that. And the best person to take as your rolemodel is the Best of Creation صلى الله عليه وسلم. Shaykh ibn Uthaymeen served the ummah and he is great, may Allah have mercy on him, but there is someone even greater to try to emulate.

The keyword of his fatwa is in the last minute of the video. He said "if the person fears that the Internet'll tempt him, then he should avoid it". That is logical and correct
I advise my muslim brothers and sisters to leave social media, I know there are certain apps you need to use to contact your family or for work, but other than that, leave all of it, keep this your goal for the next month, year, or even your life time, these times it is not surprising to see lost and depressed and uneducated people, but its surprising to see someone who is holding on his deen, doing what he is SUPPOSED to do in this life, not lost in unattainable pleasures.
Subhan allah I did not know seeking knowledge, learning quran, and practicing islam (praying qiyam al lail, etc) was actually an attainable happiness in this life, you get closer to allah, and allah subhanahu wa ta'ala gets closer to you and you feel the inner peace

And some so called western daees have the audacity today to say that our eastern scholars have nooo idea whatsoever what the west is dealing with. Here Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen Rohimahullah giving naseeha to the west as well the east that will help them for the next century. May Allah guide and protect us all.
You can't just come to a conclusion by watching one eastern person. Calm down brother.
Please say 'Rohimahullah' as 'Rohimah-Ullah' to pay respect to Allah's name.
As Muslims, we believe in the punishment of the grave. There are many narrations which verify its authenticity. One such narration is: The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said, "Seek Allaah's protection from the Punishment of the Grave, since the Punishment of the Grave is a fact/true." (Saheeh: At-Tabraanee in 'al-Kabeer' from Umm Khaalid bint Khaalid ibn Sa'eed ibn al-'Aas.)
Our righteous predecessors have mentioned many stories in this regard, some of which are as follows:
Ibn Abi'd Dunya (rahimahullah) mentioned that one of his companions said, “My brother died and I saw him in a dream. I said, "How was it when you were placed in your grave?" He replied,
"Someone brought me a fiery flame and if it had not been that someone else made supplication for me, I think he would have hit me with it.” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.)
Bashar b. Ghalib (rahimahullah) said, “I saw Rabia, on whose behalf I make frequent supplication, in a dream. She said to me,
"Bashar b. Ghalib! Your gifts have been brought to me on plates of light, covered in silken cloths."
I asked, "How can that be?" She replied,
"That is what the supplication of living believers is like. When they make supplication for a dead person, that supplication is answered for them on plates of light, veiled in silken cloths. Then they are brought to the dead person for whom the supplication was said and they are told, 'This is the gift of so-and-so to you.'” ” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.)
Amr bin Dinar (rahimahullah) said “The sister of one of the men of Medina died and he buried her. When he came back from the burial, he remembered that he had left something in the grave. He asked one of his companions to help him. His companion related that they had dug up the grave and found what they were looking for. Then the man said, "Let us dig further and find out what has happened to my sister." He lifted up one of the stones covering the burial cavity and found the grave filled with fire. He replaced it and filled in the grave again. Then he returned to his mother and asked, "What was my sister really like?" She replied, "Why do you ask about her when she is dead?" He said, "Tell me." She said,
"She used to delay the prayer and she also used to go to our neighbours' doors, put her ear to them, and then tell other people what they said." ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.)
One of the early Muslims said,
"We passed by a watering-place on the way to Basra. We heard the braying of a donkey and asked the people there what the braying was. They replied that it was one of the men who used to be with them whose mother had asked him for something and he had told her to bray like a donkey. Since his death, this braying had been heard every night from his grave.” ("The Soul journey after death" an abridgement of Ibn al-Qayyim's kitabar-ruh.)
The torment in the grave will vary according to the sins committed by the person in this world, whether he was a disbeliever or a disobedient Muslim. There are authentic narrations which describe this torment for the people who commit these sins. For example:
1 - Being struck with an iron hammer.
It was narrated from Anas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

“When a person is placed in his grave and his companions leave him, and he can no longer hear the sound of their sandals (footsteps), two angels come to him and make him sit up, and they ask him, ‘What did you say about this man Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?’ He says, ‘I bear witness that he is the slave of Allaah and His Messenger.’ It is said, ‘Look at your place in Hell which Allaah has replaced for you with a place in Paradise.’” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “And he sees them both. But as for the kaafir or hypocrite, he says, ‘I do not know, I used to say what the people said.’ It is said, ‘You did not know and you did not follow those who knew.’ Then he is struck a blow with an iron hammer between his ears and he screams a scream which everything around him can hear apart from the two races (of mankind and the jinn).” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1222.)
2 -7: Furnishings from Hell are prepared for him; he is clothed with fire; a door to Hell is opened for him; his grave is made narrow for him; he is struck with a great hammer which, if a mountain were to be struck with it, it would turn to dust; and he is given the tidings of torment in the Hereafter. Hence he will wish that the hour would never come.
Ahmad (17803) and Abu Dawood (4753) narrated that al-Baraa’ ibn ‘Aazib said:
"We went out with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) for the funeral of a man from among the Ansaar. We came to the grave and when (the deceased) was placed in the lahd, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sat down and we sat around him, as if there were birds on our heads (i.e. quiet and still). In his hand he had a stick with which he was scratching the ground. Then he raised his head and said, “Seek refuge with Allaah from the torment of the grave,” two or three times. Then he mentioned the soul of the believer and how he is blessed in his grave. Then he said: “But when the disbelieving slave is about to depart this world and enter the Hereafter, there come down to him from heaven angels with black faces, bringing sackcloth, and they sit around him as far as the eye can see. Then the Angel of Death comes and sits by his head, and he says, ‘O evil soul, come forth to the wrath of Allaah and His anger.’ Then his soul disperses inside his body, then comes out cutting the veins and nerves, like a skewer passing through wet wool. When he seizes it, they do not leave it in his hand for an instant before they take it and put it in that sackcloth, and there comes from it a stench like the foulest stench of a dead body on the face of the earth. Then they ascend and they do not pass by any group of angels but they say, ‘Who is this evil soul?’ and they say, ‘It is so and so, the son of so and so, calling him by the worst names by which he was known in this world, until they reach the lowest heaven. They ask for it to be opened to them and it is not opened.” Then the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) recited (interpretation of the meaning):
“For them the gates of heaven will not be opened, and they will not enter Paradise until the camel goes through the eye of the needle.” [al-A’raaf, 7:40]
He said: “Then Allaah says, ‘Record the book of My slave in Sijjeen in the lowest earth, and return him to the earth, for from it I created them, to it I will return them and from it I will bring them forth once again.’ So his soul is cast down.” Then the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) recited the verse (interpretation of the meaning):
“And whoever assigns partners to Allaah, it is as if he had fallen from the sky, and the birds had snatched him, or the wind had thrown him to a far off place.” [al-Hajj, 22:31]
He said: “Then his soul is returned to his body, and there come to him two angels who make him sit up and they say to him, ‘Who is your Lord?’ He says, ‘Oh, oh, I don’t know.’ They say, ‘What is your religion?’ He says, ‘Oh, oh, I don’t know.’ Then a voice calls out from heaven, ‘Prepare for him a bed from Hell and clothe him from Hell, and open for him a gate to Hell.’ Then there comes to him some of its heat and hot winds, and his grave is constricted and compresses him until his ribs interlock. Then there comes to him a man with an ugly face and ugly clothes, and a foul stench, who says, ‘Receive the bad news, this is the day that you were promised.’ He says, ‘Who are you? Your face is a face which forebodes evil.’ He says, ‘I am your evil deeds.’ He says, ‘O Lord, do not let the Hour come, do not let the Hour come.’” (This hadeeth was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Ahkaam al-Janaa’iz, p. 156)
8 - Being swallowed up by the earth.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Whilst a man was dragging his lower garment out of pride, the earth swallowed him up and he will continue sinking into the earth until the Day of Resurrection.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5345; Muslim, 3894)
9- The edge of the mouth being torn to the back of the head.
10- The head being smashed with a rock.
11- Being burnt in a tannoor oven
12- Swimming in a river of blood whilst being pelted with stones.

So trueee. The apps like Instagram and tiktok, even UA-cam is unavoidable of the filthly contents. No matter how long you persist to Islamic contents, you'll eventually end up landing in Harak contents, most of which contain music in the background even when the post is Islamic or even the verse of Qur'an sometimes. The best thing we can do is stay away from such apps.
What he is saying its very true.Internet its like a double edged sword.All he is saying is that if you can use it for good things like spreading the deen etc then go ahead.
However if you will be tempted to use it for bad stuff like Fraud,Blackmail,porn which is mostly the case then abstained from it.
May Allah forgive us all.
That's not what he is saying. His opinion is that internet is haram COMPLETELY because, you can access to a lot of haram there, and there is rule in figh, which says that getting rid of harm is more important than increasing benefit. That is his opinion as a mujtaheed, but I believe there is no ijma among scholars about it.

It depends on what you use it for. It has the light and darkness at the same time so you choose. Dawa today can be made effectively with the use of internet. Even with the desermination of this information of our sheikh,I wouldn't have hear about it without the internet 😊😊😊
@Sani. Perhaps he saw the advent of those who tell the truth about Islam such as YT memri tv-australian preacher, kuwaiti cleric, syrian cleric, saudi cleric, al azhar uni. prof.
@Sabir The cat's curiosity was not backed by knowledge so it will surely perish 😊😊😊😊😊
I still believe that it's the worst thing ever created because the benefits of it does not exceed the 1% than the 99% which it contains that it is haram, so the chances of you falling into haram is actually 99% and please don't say that some people haven't because through observations this statement seems to be correct.
Just like the knife, can be used for good and evil.
Momin sees from noor of allah masha allah jazaakallah khair may allah gives you and shaik khairan kaseer
We should not leave Internet, we should stay away from the evil side of Internet. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. We can’t leave the thing due to its disadvantages. We should focus on its bright side
I'll make dua for you
Social media is mostly bad. Controlled by bad people and targeting teenagers. It's engineered to keep people addicted mostly kids. Tiktok, Instagram really, snap chat, others.
@@jameelali5457 thanks 😇
I convinced that the internet is a part of dajjal...
Mashallah may Allah grants jannah for syaikh al utsaimin rahimullah
Masha Allah
رحمك الله يا شيخنا الجليل والله احبه في الله حبا عظيما
In my opinion fitna is everywhere whether a person is using internet or not if human has step in this world the exam begins for him/her The point is that a person who is using internet must use it with the knowledge of Islam with correct perspective and should know about what is halal and haraam in the Deen and one who attains taqwa of Allah will not go to anything wrong, one can use internet in a v good cause also .
It is a tool the person can use for good or bad alllah is watching
Sheikh is 100% accurate.
The reality is he was right. We live in a time where the internet is essential for modern living but a by product is the exposure to a lot of rubbish and even filth, if one can only use the internet gor their essential needs that is better, but who actually does that?
As salaamu Alikum
Visionary and religious leader.
May Allah forgive him and grant him high position.
Ironically here we are looking at this through internet. My brothers and sisters I do not criticize him because according to his perspective he is absolutely right. Its just my opinion lets just imagine the control,CEOs and founders were true believers how much beautiful it was supposed to be if we muslims were encouraged towards innovation.
Hé literally said it contains good and evil. The problem is that those who are in charge of controlling social media and data in general they know what they’re doing. They’re digging deep. It’s not difficult for them to conduct this industry and direct it to where they want it to be.
Well the time was different back then. Internet and all was not a necessity to live a full life, but we still can get few valuable points from his speech :)
@@Calvin_M. many valuable points not few. Don’t forget that he’s talking about having internet in households not companies and schools.
@@latusalihyasalim4872 you still need an internet in household unless you want to be isolated from the rest of the world.
@@Calvin_M. it’s not for everybody. Unless you’re an expert in a certain field or a researcher or something like that. which is not the case for the majority of people. and those who need internet from time to time to look for a specific thing they can find it in public cybercafe.
Interesting that the respected Sjeikh(rah) mentions the internet, and the Dajjal as a same example. It is from the same type and form of a Fitnah to protect ourself for our Iman in our religion.
Sheikh Imran hosein Also tells this
@@mohamedriyas4527 I am familiar with Imran Hosein, but he goes to far and exceeds in the explanation and prediction of the matters of the end of time. That accodingly to himself, he is the only one that realy knows and understands this in the the best and in the correct way. And this is not correct and respectful to all the other repected schollars like Ibn Uthaimin and others. So that's why we can not take blindly everyting from him in what he teaches and claims. But the most people are not aware and have no knowledge of this and take out of ignorance everyting from him in what he says and claims.
@@alyunanie simply pls look the world
This world moves to something strange.
Max. Hadiths are muthashabihath.
@@mohamedriyas4527 I agree with the fact that we live in a time with great Fitnah in every matter and aspect in our lives at this time and place, and the end time is close. And i accept all the authentic Hadith that speaks about the end time and the things that will happen. But, to interpret and explain them in a sorten way that the Prophet Muhammad( Peace and blessings be on him) and the Sahabah(ra), and even the Tabi-ien(ra) did not do and teached. Then we have to be sceptical about everyting that wich a so called schollar brings where there is no hard proof for it in wat he claims. Some things are hidden(Ghaib) for us, and how and when it will be happen. Only Allah( the Exaled the Most High) knows it, nobody else. But the Muslim has to belief in the things that are hidden( Ghaib) for us. This is a part of our belief according to the Qur'an and the Sunnah.
One of the greatest benefit of the internet is that it exposed Islam to the world. It's of course leading many to Islam and at the same time driving many out of it.
Sheitan whispers but I've just used the Internet to watch this clip. Moments later good thought comes in but is that the case always? . Now I can see how productive or wasteful my time online has been.
May Almighty Allah forgive Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen (rahimahullah) and grant him Jannat-Al-Firdous. Ameen.
There’s a reason why Steve Jobs only lets his kids use the internet for no more than 30 minutes even if it’s for homework purposes lol he knows something.
I don't think he said anything about 30 minutes, but he indeed limited tech access in his house. Back then honestly it was not neccesary that much as today tho.
@@Calvin_M. you got choked up by the literal sense of what I said and comparing internet use to then and now? You totally missed the point of what was said. But if it makes you feel like you had insight I didn’t notice than by all means 👏🏽
It is just sad to see how we have become dependend on the internet. Like the sheikh (ra) said: "it contains both good and evil." But now we couldn't live without it.
"As long as he fears he will fall into haram." Dear brothers and sisters don't forget the condition the Shaykh mentioned.
These people would encourage people not to use electricity ⚡️ if they would listen.. and return to the Stone Age times.. it makes absolutely no sense living in a modern world 🌎..

Little does he know where watching this on the internet
He said in the beginning that internet contains both the good and the evil things.
@@ASh-hj3it That's stating the obvious. Like the sky is blue or 1+1=2. How about tell us something we actually don't know, like how Muslims could create their own version of the internet which safer.
@@ASh-hj3it but the evil is a lot more accessible and out their compared to the good even if u intend to do good evil will find it’s way in

The Internet is a disease. The mobile phone has become a horrendous gadget.
Im not that keen in social media except youtube. Like I like to watch recipes etc. I think we can't generalise everyone. A lot of muslims I know know their limits and boundaries and know not to overstep it. 🤷🏻♀️
You cannot truly know about someone, you are not to judge
@@beckham231017 Allah Subhana wa Ta Ala will judge us on the day of judgement. But we judge people nowadays on what is apparent as Imam al Nawawi Rahimahuallah has stated.
Great speech 👏❤
If we cant use internet, then we couldnt watch this video😑
you are right and he is also right
i was thinking the same but the man is right tho
@@Unknownidk-l4n i agree with him. But not using internet these days, is impossible. Hes right about that there are many bad graphics on the internet but we have to control ourselves.
If you do not use the Internet, you do not need to watch this video
I'm using this as my reason for not responding to my work emails.
Everyone here is using internet and commenting don't use it , just hypocrisy
قال ابن عثيمين رحمه الله
زاحموا أهل الباطل في الانترنت حتى يتبين الحق
😭😭😭😭😭he was absolutely right 😞...
May Allah make our hearts firm upon His religion
lmfao STAY AWAY from internet, but video is SHARED ON THE INTERNET and the channel posting this advising to stay away wants us to LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE! If this is not irony at its best....
"..... as long as he fears he will fall into haram"
Dude you obviously didn't watch the entire video
your attention span must be very low to watch a 2 minute video. what he's saying is the internet is a double-edge sword we should have self control and use it appropriately to achieve any task in according to islamic law.
Ma Shaa Allah❤true Islam.
“Avoid using the internet completely”
So don’t also use knives or walk outside in a non muslim country. Bcz it will lead to haram.
I agree there is haram and things MIGHT go bad. But saying to avoid it completely is stupid btw. It depends on how you use them.
May Allah guide us.
yea, it reminds me of how they said chess and music and TV was haram and now they use TV for spreading their message
This was 20 years back when internet was not essential part of our daily lives.
"It depends on how you use them" that what he said tho. He said it's contains good and bad. Means conditionally could lead you to either depends on your nafs and iman. Avoid using it just his advice it's not absolute law in Islam. And lets be honest, avoding bad things in internet kinda hard even we don't have intention cuz we literally get any and even random information in milliseconds. So, his advise is still reasonable to protect you completely but unrealistic for someone who live in slightly modern or above place.
@@bakkah7733 If you closely look the subtitles, it says that he said to “Avoid it COMPLETELY” it means to avoid it at any cost and to never even go close to it.
@@ayeshanasserx It doesn’t have to be essential btw. When giving fatwa while knowing there is also benefit like he says, then he shld be careful. He is lecturing normal people which could lead to misuses.
May Allah guide us
Good vs Evil exists on all platforms (society, people, multimedia, business etc. I am unsure when this was recorded but the shaykh in his opinion has totally nailed it. Internet can be used for good but what do we do, we become lazy, watching unnecessary things, follow things that are not appropriate or does not hold real value, give credit to illegitimate content, waste time and so much more. How many times have we upheld something good until we trap ourselves into something far worse. The problem with the Internet is that anything can be accessed at anytime and children are able to view things that is not appropriate. May Allah protect us all. Ameen ya rab
Good words my brother
This doesn’t make sense. What else should I stop using because it might lead to something else?
Maybe the knife I use to slice vegetables because it could used to kill
Maybe stop reading books because there are bad books
Maybe don’t go outside because I might see something I shouldn’t see.
Makes no sense. And more than anything, your channel is adding to the nonsense on the internet and not reducing it.
See the pinned comment
Ok I will also use my knife moderately, go outside moderately and read moderately.
Complete nonsense.
@@terencehank7206 What are you talking about. Everything needs to be done in moderation.
You also lack the etiquette of Islamic knowledge.
Even if u disagree with the Sheikh, and you think he is wrong, u should know that he is rewarded for his ijtihaad (striving to arrive at the correct view).
The one that does ijtihaad and reaches the wrong conclusion, receives one reward. The one that does ijtihaad and reaches the right conclusion, receives two rewards.
People of knowledge are know to respect each others views without insults like this.
This is not really about the Sheikh, it is about you and your channel.
The Sheikh said don’t use the internet. You say (in a titillating and clickbaity way) ‘imagine what he would say today’ - what is that supposed to mean? You then go on to say using the internet is a necessity, but that everyone should it moderately. What is that supposed to mean?
If I say it’s nonsense it’s because that’s what I believe. If you want respect to earn it and not demand it.
@@terencehank7206 Stop twisting your own words. Look at your original comment. You were talking about the Sheikh's fatwa itself.
I don't need your respect, but you need to respect the Sheikh and the rest of the scholars. My channel is only used to translate their speeches
