Marriage and the Light of Faith

‘Ikrimah, Sumay’ and Kurayb report that Ibn ‘Abbâs – Allah be pleased with them – said to them:

Marry, for if the servant of Allah commits fornication Allah snatches the light of îmân from him, and may or may not return it to him.

Ibn Sa’d in Al-Tabaqât Al-Kubrâ Vol.5 p287.

    Asalaamu alaykum akhi,

    May Allah preserve you, I just wanted to suggest you put this narration in the marriage section as I didnt notice it there,

    May Allah reward you for all your efforts, a great website maa shaAllah, no gossip just straight to business, the best of examples advising us, perhaps a future project could be to add the arabic text to the narrations,

    Your brother, Abu Ibraheem

    Assalaamu alyk wa rahamtullaah wa baraktuuh

    May Allaah aza wa jall' reward you in abundance akhee for all you efforts, I would like suggest thinking about making an pp for iphone/ipod with all these sayings of the salaf that would be very beneficial for the Muslims with these sort of applications. Jazak'Allaah khayr wa Baraka'Allaahu feek.

    @Umm Sireen:
    Wa alaykumus-salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
    Barakallahu feeki.
    A good suggestion, and one which we hope to implement. There is a temporary mobile friendly version of this site for iPhone etc visitors. It should load automatically depending on your phone.

    @Abu Huraira
    The app you mentioned has nothing to do with this site.
