Brief Benefit from the above lecture: Preserve Allaah and Allaah will preserve you!

The Noble Shaykh Abdullaah Al Ghudayan,Rahimahullaah  Used to remind  us of Allaah, He used to constantly say to us the Hadeeth, احْفَظْ اللَّهَ يَحْفَظْكَ, Preserve Allaah and Allaah will Preserve you!

This is actually a part of a much longer Hadeeth which was related by At-Tirmidhiyy and Al-Imaam Ahmad and was graded as Saheeh by Al-Imaam Al-Albaaniyy. Here is the full text in Arabic:

عن أبي العباس عبد الله بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا فَقَالَ:” يَا غُلاَمُ إِنِّي أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ احْفَظْ اللَّهَ يَحْفَظْكَ احْفَظْ اللَّهَ تَجِدْهُ تُجَاهَكَ إِذَا سَأَلْتَ فَاسْأَلْ اللَّهَ وَإِذَا اسْتَعَنْتَ فَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللَّهِ وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ الأمة لَوْ اجْتَمَعَتْ عَلَى أَنْ يَنْفَعُوكَ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَنْفَعُوكَ إِلاَّ بِشَيْءٍ قَدْ كَتَبَهُ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَلَوْ اجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى أَنْ يَضُرُّوكَ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَضُرُّوكَ إِلاَّ بِشَيْءٍ قَدْ كَتَبَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ رُفِعَتْ الْأَقْلاَمُ وَجَفَّتْ الصُّحُفُ” رواه الترمذي ، وأحمد ، وصححه الألباني في صحيح الجامع برقم

On the authority of Abu ‘Abbaas Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (radiAllahu ‘anhuma — may Allah be pleased with them two)1 said: I was behind The Prophet ﷺ one day and he said,

“Oh young boy! I am going to teach you some words: preserve Allah and he will preserve you. Preserve Allah and you will find him in front of you. If you ask, then ask Allah; and if you seek aid, seek aid from Allah. Know! If the Ummah [nation] gathered to benefit you with something, they wouldn’t benefit you except with something Allah wrote [i.e., decreed] for you. And if the Ummah gathered to harm you with something, they wouldn’t be able to harm you except with something Allah wrote for you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried.” [At-Tirmidhi, and he rated it Sahih]
