Question:
Some brothers limit their speech by; ‘good morning…good evening’ instead of ‘assalâmu alaykum wa rahmatu Allâh wa barakâtuh’ ie the greeting of Islâm. So is there any advice concerning this?

There is no obedience to the creation in disobedience to The Creator


by : AbdurRahman.org

Bismillaah Al-Hamdulillaah wa salatu wa salaamu 'ala rasulullaah
Amma ba'd

To reinforce the precedence and priority that obedience to Allaah (subhanahu wa ta'aala) has over the obedience to the creation, ponder upon the following ahadeeth of the Prophet (salallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam):
La ta'aata lil makhluk fi ma'seeyit al-Khaaliq (which means "there is no obedience to the creation in disobedience to The Creator.")
"Inna ma ta'aa fil ma'roof." (Obedience is only in the matters ordained by Allaah).
The righteous scholars have explained that the right of The Creator takes precedence over the rights of the creation.
So when any one from the creation enjoins on you to commit an act of disobedience, then obedience to them in that specific matter is actually disobedience to Allaah, whereas disobedience to them in that specific matter is obedience to Allaah. Allaah (subhanahu wa ta'aala) says: ...Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression... (Al-Ma`idah 5:2)

Can the Jinn steal material items from the home? – Shaykh Ubayd al-Jaabiree

Taken from : salafus salih
Answered by Shaykh Ubayd al-Jaabiree 
Question:
May Allah give you good. The first question is from the questions from Miraath website. The questioner from Algeria says. May Allah give you good O Shaykh. Is it possible for the Jinn to steal or take material items from the house, such as gold or wealth? 
Shaykh Ubaid:
This category of Jinn does indeed perform the action mention in the question. And that which I found through investigating the situations of the people is that the magicians and charlatans use them (the Jinn) for this purpose. Thus the Jinn place a condition upon them that they seek nearness to them by providing an offering to them. Thus by way of this they fall into shirk. So if they (the magicians and charlatans) do what the Jinn want, they do what they (the magicians and charlatans) want; from stealing, murder, possessing people and other than that.
