Allaah تعالى says: {And
let those who oppose the Messenger's (Muhammad's) commandment beware, lest some
Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a
tyrant) should befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them.}
[Surah al-Noor (24): 63]
Ibn `Abbaas رضي
الله عنهما said: “(It may be
that) Stones are soon to descend upon you from the heavens! I say to you: ‘Allaah’s
Messenger صلى
الله عليه وسلم said...’ and
you say to me: ‘Abu Bakr and Umar said!?’”
Imaam Ahmad رحمه الله said: “Do you know what the Fitnah is?
The Fitnah is Shirk. May be the rejection of some of his words would cause one
to have doubt and deviation in his heart and thereby be destroyed.”
[The quotes of Ibn `Abbaas and Imaam Ahmad have been taken from
Kitaab al-Tawheed of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn `Abdul Wahhaab, Chapter #38]
Shaikh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said: “Fitnah (trials and tribulations,
destruction in the land) does not occur except when the commandments of Allaah
are neglected. For He تعالى
has commanded us to adhere to the Haqq (truth) and commanded us with Sabr
(patience). So fitnah occurs either when the truth is neglected or when
patience is neglected.” [Al-Istiqaamah 1/39]
