¹Situations / ²Occupying Oneself / ³Truth :

1. )

Studying world situations is to know what other people say and write about Islam & the Muslims .

A Muslim's status is not diminished by being ignorant of people's worldly situations .

The Muslim's situations can benefit the youths when it is done in the light of the teachings of the Qur'an & the Sunnah .

What benefits the Muslims and their youth are : Things should be done within the framework of fundamentals of Sharee'ah .

The Ummah needs to have individuals who should be well-versed in collective sciences .

2.  )

PreOccupying Oneself with hearsays and treating issues in ways different from how the Sharee'ah treats them are some of the greatest means of farness from the truth & deviation from fundamental and practical aspects of Islam .

" When a matter arises & it is not clear to You ; whether it is lawful or not , You should then look at the stand of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ & his Companions on that matter . 

This is Criterion that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught us . "

3.  )

" The real community is that which adheres to the truth even if it consists of only you . " - Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud (r.a)

The real factor is that truth must be adhered to and correctness must be upheld in sayings and deeds .

Correctness of sayings & deeds is to follow the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .

4.  )

" We were young & energetic youths . We learnt faith before we learnt the Qur'an . Then we learnt the Qur'an , it increased us in faith . "
