Dont Sit With Ahlul Ahwa (The People Of Desires) ! Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu anhu) said : Do not sit with the people of desires; for indeed it causes sickness of the heart.” [Reported by : Imaam Al-Aajuree (rahimullaah) in Ash-Sharee-ah 1/453] The Prophet (salallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: There will come out of this Ummah a people whose desires will go through their bodies like Rabies. There is no part of the body except that this disease will enter it. Concerning the Prophets (salallaahu alayhi wa sallam) statement, Al-Allaamah Ubaidullaah ibnu Abdis-Salaam al-Mubarakfuree (rahimahullaah) said: This is a Tahdheer (warning) from even coming near these desires or from even coming near the people who have them. And this disease is a disease than an individual catches by being in close proximity to. Once rabies reaches a person, it goes to every part of the body and, in the majority of the cases, it leads to his destruction. Similarly, the innovator. He compares the innovator to a dog with rabies. He will come to you with his opinion or viewpoint and present it to you in a way that very few people are safe from. And it will stay with you until you enter into his way and become one of his party. This is a great example from the Prophet (salallaahu alayhi wa sallam) in warning us against bidah in case one did not understand the seriousness of bidah before this - its comparison to a dog with rabies. Abu Uwais (rahimahulllaah)
