In the span of a week we have lost Sh. Bakr Abu Zayd and Dr. Salih as-Salih.
‘Abd-Allâh ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Aas said: “I heard the Messenger of Allâh (peace and blessings of Allâh be upon him) say, ‘Allâh does not take knowledge away by taking it away from people’s (hearts); He takes knowledge away by taking away the scholars (i.e., when scholars die), and when there is not one scholar left, the people will turn to ignorant leaders who, when they are consulted, will give fatwas without knowledge. They are misguided and they misguide others.’” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 98).

Shaykh, Dr. Saleh as-Saleh has left behind a mountain of knowledge, with there being well over one thousand audio lectures and a plethora of articles on his website (www.understand-islam.net) alone, not to mention his published works. I have a number of transcriptions from the classes of the Shaykh available on my blog, and I am in the process of transcribing more. May Allaah make all of it an ongoing charity for him, ameen!

May Allaah gather us all with prophet Muhammad (salla Allah alaihi wasallam). May Allaah forgive him a great forgivness for all of his shortcomings. May Allaah make his strong and steadfast in the grave.
When Allaah (sw) takes a soul of a knowledgable believer i always wonder who will replace him or her? Just think of all of us who gained knowledge and wisdom from those who had knowledge.
I really did not need more sadness in my life. I will miss him. May Allah protect his family and produce his likes aameeen.

His janaza:
“As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmat Ullaah.
Just came back from the Janaazah of Saleh as-Saleh (r). We prayed over him here at the Prophet’s Masjid, then carried him over to al-Baqee’, then watched while two men entered into the grave and two others handed them the body. The body was placed in the lahd, facing the qiblah. Many brothers formed a train transporting the bricks that were then placed behind the body so as to seal the lahd off the rest of the grave. Finally, we started dumping soil into the grave until it was filled to the top, and we stayed a short while around the grave supplicating for him.
His son, Rasheed (about 23 years old), told me that his father died following a sharp drop in his diabetic sugar level while he was leaving from Jumu’ah prayer yesterday. He was immediately transported to al-Ansaar hospital where he passed away soon thereafter. May Allaah forgive him, engulf him with His mercy, and admit him and us into His spacious Garden.
Rasheed has one daughter, and he told me that his mother had recently embraced Islam after he had extended discussions with her in US. In addition to Rasheed and his sister (from the American wife), Saleh had Abdurrahman and Asmaa from a second wife (all currently in Egypt ), and he has several children (probably five) from his current wife, the oldest son being Abdullaah (about 12 years old, was present during the burial). May Allaah (T) grant his family patience, acceptance, and submission to Allaah’s will, and may He reward them for their great loss.

SubhaanAllah, what a service to the ummah. We not only benefitted from his immense ilm, but his beautiful mannerisms, his humility, his patience, and his hikmah. He has left a huge impact on this ummah and those who attended his classes who witnessed his way first hand, and subhaanAllah, it left nothing but a smile on your face and immense gratitude in your heart.
May Allah ta’ala forgive his sins, accept his deeds and enter him into Paradise. Ameen.

Subhanallaah! How Perfect Allaah is. I love the Shaikh-Dr Saleh as Saleh for the sake of Allaah. He had so much love and concern for the Muslims and how he used to stop his class to answer the questions of the non-Muslim and invited them to learn about Islaam and he had much patience in teaching and spreading the true message of Islam.
Ma asha Allaah. La quwwata illaa billaah
May Allaah grant him and Shaikh Bakr Aboo Zayd who authored the book called ‘the etiquette Seeking Knowledge’ which I benefited from tremendously Jannah al-Firdaus and grant their family patience and make them from the righteous. Ameen

Assalamu Alaikum,
I am from Kano in Nigeria
Having just finished reading one of Dr Saleh as-Saleh’s books (on isbal) for the first time in my life, I felt inclined to know more about him, so i jotted down his name and the name of another scholar Muhammad al-jibily whose books made me want to know more about him and made me like him so much and here I am, in front of my computer only to find out that Dr Saleh as-Saleh has just passed away as confirmed by al-jibiliy himself of all people. May Allah blessed their homes with graces from above that all who dwell within may find it a shelter of Success. And may they get the rewards as their work continued to influence people positively across the globe. Ameen

Inshaa Allah can we still get a book each ? “The Meaning of Allahs Most Beautiful Names and”Three Fundamental Principles” if these are not available at this time send what ever is in stock with the Arabic and English translated… so far we are just using our sourse of learning from our computers…we would love to have a few books. Jazaaki Allahu Khairan.
