Best of you

40. "The most beloved of people according to Allah is he who brings most benefit, and the most beloved of deeds according to Allah the Mighty, the Magnificent, is that you bring happiness to a fellow Muslim, or relieve him of distress, or pay off his debt or stave away hunger from him. It is more beloved to me that I walk with my brother Muslim in his time of need than I stay secluded in the mosque for a month. Whoever holds back his anger, Allah will cover his faults and whoever suppresses his fury while being able to execute it, Allah will fill his heart with satisfaction on the Day of Standing. Whoever walks with his brother Muslim in need until he establishes that for him, Allah will establish his feet firmly on the day when all feet shall slip. Indeed, bad character ruins deeds just as vinegar ruins honey." [Tabarâni, Hasan]

Quotes to remember

28. `Umar (ra) said, “He who fears Allah cannot give an outlet to his anger (by sinning). He who fears Allah cannot do what he likes.”

Salafs sayings

Sins are like chains and locks preventing their perpetrator from roaming the vast garden of Tawhid and reaping the fruits of righteous actions.

The Ruling of Travelling to A Muslim country which has open sinning

Question:

What is the ruling of travelling to Islamic Lands - where there is no ordering the good and no forbidding the evil, and where alcohol and music is sold, and where there is tabarruj [the unveiling of women] and free mixing [of men and women] - for the purpose of trips and tourism.
Answer:

The land which is not upon practicing the religion and one which has open lewdness and evil within it, then it is not allowed for a person to travel to it; since he will be affected by the evil found therein and be afflicted with that which its people have been afflicted with.
Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan
Silsilatu sharhir-Rasaail, p118.
