For verily those innovators corrupt the hearts from the very beginning. Whereas the Jews and the Christians and those who wage war against the Muslin lands, their corruption is of the heart, but it occurs after much time." [Majmu al-Fatawa, 28/232]

☝️Statemenst concerning Tawhid
1️⃣- Imam Ahmad was asked about tawakkul, so he said: "It is to cut off the desire for that which the creation longs for.” [Tabaqatu’l-Hanabilah, 1/416]
2️⃣- Imam Ahmad said: "Allah has always been a Speaker, and the Qur'an is the Speech of Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala), it is not created in any way. And Allah is not to be described with anything more than what He (subhanahu wa ta'ala) described Himself with.” [Kitabu’l-Mihnah, 68]
3️⃣- Ibn Abi Ya'la relates from Abi Bakr al-Marwazi who said: “I asked Ahmad Ibn Hanbal about the ahadith which are rejected by the Jahmiyyah in regards to the Attributes and the ru'yah, and the isma and the story of the Throne, so Imam Ahmad declared them authentic and said: The Ummah has received them with acceptance, so pass them on as they have come.” [Tabaqatu’l-Hanabilah, 1/56]
4️⃣- Imam Ahmad said: "Whosoever alleges that Allah does not speak, then he is a disbeliever. Verily we pass these ahadith on as they have come." [Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad, Kitaabu’s-Sunnah, 71]
5️⃣- Hanbal Ibn Ishaq Ibn Hanbal Ibn Hilaal Ibn Asad, Abu Ali ash-Shaybani (the son of the paternal uncle of Ahmad Ibn Hanbal) asked Imam Ahmad about the ruyah, so he said: "They are authentic ahadith, we believe in them and affirm them. And we believe in everything that has been narrated from RasulAllah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) with good chains of narration." [Lailakai, Sharh Usoulu’l-I'tiqad Ahlu’s-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa'ah, 2/507]
6️⃣- Ahmad Ibn Hanbal wrote to Musaddad Ibn Misrahad Ibn Mursabil al-Asdi al-Basri : "They describe Allah with what He described Himself with, and they negate from Allah what He negated from Himself..." [Ibnu’l-Jawzi, Manaqibu’l-Imam Ahmad, 221]
7️⃣- Imam Ahmad said: "And Jahm Ibn Safwaan alleged that whosoever described Allah with something that He described Himself with in His Book, or something that is narrated from His Messenger; that he was a disbeliever, and that he was from the Mushabbihah." [Imam Ahmad, ar-Radd ala’l-Jahmiyyah,104]
8️⃣- Imam Ahmad said: "We believe that Allah is above His Throne however He wishes and as He wishes, without a limit (hadd), nor an Attribute that the describer can comprehend, nor a limit which the describer can place. So the Attributes of Allah are from Him and for Him, and He is as He described Himself, He cannot be encompassed (in vision) by the eyes." [Ibn Taymiyyah, Dar'ut-Ta'anidu’l-Aql wa’n-Naql, 2/30]
9️⃣- Imam Ahmad said: "Whomsoever alleges that Allah will not be seen in the Hereafter, then he is a disbeliever who has lied upon the Qur’an." [Ibn Abi Ya'la, Tabaqatu’l-Hanabilah, 1/59; 1/145]
🔟- And Ibn Abi Ya'la mentioned froth Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad said: “I asked my father (i.e., Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal) about a people who say: When Allah spoke to Musa (as); He did not speak with a voice.

⭕️11- Imam Abu Bakr al-Marrudhi, the companion of Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, said: "It was said to Aba Abd-Allah (i.e., Imam Ahmad) that Abdu’l-Wahhab was speaking and he had said: Whosoever claims that Allah spoke to Musa (alaihe wa sallam) without a voice, then he is a Jahmi, and an enemy of Allah, and an enemy of Islam. So Abu Abd-Allah said: How beautiful is what he has said, may Allah pardon him." [Daru’t-Ta'aarud, 2/37-39]
⭕️12- Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad said: "I said to my father: Verily there are those who say that Allah did not speak to Musa (alaihe wa sallam) with a voice. So Imam Ahmad replied: These are the heretical Jahmiyyah, they only use ta'til (denial).” [Majmu al-Fatawa, 12/368]

🔰Invite people towards good and forbid evil, if the evil increases, your righteousness wont be able to save you!
❖❐ " There are large sections of Muslims who are content with some aspects of the religion, but they have no role, no contribution and no participation in enjoining good and forbidding evil, in Islamic activism and struggling to return the ummah back to the rule of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala)."
❐ Yet they claim to be true Muslim, they are proud to be a part of the Ummah of Muhammad (ﷺ) and his devoted followers , but Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala called Muslim nation as best people ever raised among mankind based on a condition that they will invite people towards good and forbid evil.
❐ "You [true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden), and you believe in Allah... " [Surat al-imran C. 3 | V. 110]
❐ The wrath of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) will be upon the large section of Muslims If they don't enjoin good and forbid evil as Hudhaifah (Rady'Allahu Anhu) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
❖❐ “By Him in Whose Hand my life is, you either enjoin good and forbid evil, or Allah will certainly soon send His punishment to you. Then you will make supplication and it will not be accepted”. [At-Tirmidhi - 9/17]. ❐

🔰Among the causes of having worries disappear and sins forgiven is sending ṣalāh (supplications for peace) upon the Prophet ﷺ, and the effect of sending ṣalāh upon him on Friday is greatest.
💠Ubayy ibn Kaʻb, may Allah be pleased with him, said,
🔰"O Messenger of Allah, I frequently invoke the blessings of Allah upon you. How much of my supplications should I devote to you?"
💢He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said, "Whatever you wish." I said, "A quarter?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "One half?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "Two thirds?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "Shall I devote all my supplication to (invoking blessings upon) you?"
💥He said, "Then, you will be freed from your worry and your sin will be forgiven."
[At-Tirmithi: good-authentic; Al-Haakim in Al-Mustadrak]
💠Anas bin Maalik (radhi Allaahu anhu) said: Verily the Prophet (salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said:
💥Whoever sends Salah upon me once Allah will send ten (blessings) upon him and remove ten of his sins and raise his rank by ten levels.
[Imam Ahmad in his Musnad, Imam Bukharee in Adabul Mufrad #642 and #643. Jami Sagheer #6359 authenticated by Al Abaanee]
💠“Truly Allah and His angels say Salah on the Prophet, O you believers, recite Salah on him and send Salam on him completely.” [Al-Ahzab | C.33: A.56]

🔰The Creed of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal (d. 241)
🍃Part : 2
⭕️13- Abdus Ibn Malik al-Attar said: “I heard Ahmad Ibn Hanbal saying: The Qur'an is the Speech of Allah, and it is not created, and do not weaken in saying that it is not created. Since the Speech of Allah is from Him, and nothing from Him is created.” [Lailakai, Sharh Usoulu’l-I'tiqad Ahlu’s-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa'ah, 1/157]
⭕️14- Ahmad Ibn Sa'id ad- Darimi said: “I said to Ahmad Ibn Hanbal: I will say to you a statement, and if you oppose anything from it, then say: I oppose it. I said to him: We say that the Qur'an, from its beginning to its end, is the Speech of Allah, nothing from it is created. And whoever claims that something from it is created, then he is a disbeliever. So he did not oppose anything from it and was pleased with it." [Ibn Abi Hatim; Tabaqatu’l-Hanabilah, 1/46]
⭕️15- Imam Ahmad said: "The Qur'an is the Speech of Allah in all situations from the situations; it is not created." [Ibn Haani, al-Masaa'd, 2/158]
⭕️16- Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal said: "I met the men, scholars and fuqaha (jurists) of Makkah and Madinah and Kufah and Basrah and Shaam and ath-Thughur and Khurasan. So I saw them to be upon the Sunnah and the Jamaa'ah, so I asked them about it (i.e., the wording).

💠Statements concerning iman
⭕️25- Imam Ahmad said: "From the most excellent qualities of iman (faith) is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah." [Ibn Abi Ya'la, Tabaqatu’l-Hanabilah, 2/275]
⭕️26- Imam Ahmad said: "Iman increases and decreases, as occurs in the narration: The most complete of the Believers in iman is the best of them in character. [Ahmad, Musnad; Abu Dawud; Tirmidhi).” (Ibnul Jawzi, Manaqibu’l-Imam Ahmad, 153, 168, 173]
⭕️27- Sulayman Ibn Ash'ath said: “Aba Abd-Allah said: The Prayer, zakaat (charity), Hajj (pilgrimage) and righteousness is from iman, and disobedience decreases iman.” [al- Khallaal, as-Sunnah, #96]
⭕️28- Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad said: “I asked my father about a man who says that iman is statement and action, it increases and decreases. However, he does not make exception, is he a Murji? He said: I hope that he will not have irjaa. I heard my father saying: The proof against exception is the statement of RasulAllah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) to the people in the graves: And if Allah wills, we shall be meeting up with you. [Muslim]” [Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, as-Sunnah, 1/307-308]
⭕️29- Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad said: "I heard my father -may Allah bestow mercy upon him- being asked about irjaa, so he said: We say: iman is statement and action, it increases and decreases.

💥Statements concerning the companions
⭕️30- Imam Ahmad said: "And it is from the Sunnah to mention the good qualities of the companions of RasulAllah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam), all of them together. And to refrain from mentioning their evil qualities and the differing that occurred between them.
🔰So whosoever speaks ill of the companions of RasulAllah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam), or one person from amongst them, then he is an innovator, Rafidi, repulsively diseased, mentally underdeveloped person. Allah will not accept honesty nor exchange from him. Rather, loving them is the Sunnah, and supplicating for them brings about closeness to Allah, and following them is the way, and taking their narrations is nobility.” [Imam Ahmad, Kitaabu’s-Sunnah, 77]
⭕️31- Imam Ahmad said: "Then the companions of RasulAllah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) -after the four (Caliphs)- are the best of the people, and it is not permissible for anyone to mention anything from their bad qualities, nor to charge anyone from amongst them with a fault, nor a deficiency. So whosoever does that, then it is indeed obligatory upon the ruler to capture and punish him, and he must not pardon.” [Imam Ahmad, Kitaabu’s-Sunnah, 78]
⭕️32- Imam Ahmad said: "And to testify that the ten are in Paradise; Abu Bakr (Rady'Allahu anhu), Umar (Rady'Allahu anhu), Uthman (Rady'Allahu anhu), Ali (Rady'Allahu anhu), Talhah (Rady'Allahu anhu), az-Zubayr (Rady'Allahu anhu), Sa'd (Rady'Allahu anhu) and Sa'id (Rady'Allahu anhu), and Abdu’r-Rahman Ibn Awf (Rady'Allahu anhu), and Abu Ubaydah Ibnu’l Jarrah (Rady'Allahu anhu).

⭕️34- Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad said: “I asked my father about a people who say that Ali was not a caliph. He said: This is a rejected, evil statement." [Abd-Allah Ibn Ahmad, as-Sunnah, 235]
⭕️35- Imam Ahmad said: "Whoever does not affirm the khilafah for Ali (Rady'Allahu anhu), then he is more misguided than the donkey of his family.” [Ibnu’l-Jawzi, Manaqibu’l-Imam Ahmad, 163]

🔰Among the causes of having worries disappear and sins forgiven is sending ṣalāh (supplications for peace) upon the Prophet ﷺ, and the effect of sending ṣalāh upon him on Friday is greatest.

🔰"O Messenger of Allah, I frequently invoke the blessings of Allah upon you. How much of my supplications should I devote to you?"
💢He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said, "Whatever you wish." I said, "A quarter?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "One half?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "Two thirds?" He said, "Whatever you wish, and if you do more, it is better for you." I said, "Shall I devote all my supplication to (invoking blessings upon) you?"
💥He said, "Then, you will be freed from your worry and your sin will be forgiven."
[At-Tirmithi: good-authentic; Al-Haakim in Al-Mustadrak]
💠Anas bin Maalik (radhi Allaahu anhu) said: Verily the Prophet (salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said:
💥Whoever sends Salah upon me once Allah will send ten (blessings) upon him and remove ten of his sins and raise his rank by ten levels.
[Imam Ahmad in his Musnad, Imam Bukharee in Adabul Mufrad #642 and #643. Jami Sagheer #6359 authenticated by Al Abaanee]
💠“Truly Allah and His angels say Salah on the Prophet, O you believers, recite Salah on him and send Salam on him completely.” [Al-Ahzab | C.33: A.56]
💠 Ibn Abbas (Rady'Allahu anhu) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ, said,
‼️"Whoever forgets to send blessings upon me, he has missed a path to Paradise."
[Sunan Ibn Mäjah 908]
