Explanation of the Hadith: Indeed the Blissful Person Is He Who Has Been Kept Away from Fitan
By Shaykh 'Abdur Razzaq ibn 'Abdul Muhsin al-Badr

The Prophet ﷺ informed us that the truly fortunate person is the one who is kept away from trials (fitan), and the one who is tested and remains patient. In this treatise, Shaykh 'Abdur Razzaq al-Badr explains this hadith and its lessons for Muslims living in times of widespread confusion and tribulation.

The Shaykh describes the nature of fitan — trials of doubts and desires, and trials that divide the Muslims — and lays out the means of protection from them: holding to the Qur'an and Sunnah, returning to the people of knowledge, restraining the tongue, avoiding involvement in turmoil, patience, and sincere supplication. He also shows how the Salaf conducted themselves when trials arose.

A timely, grounding read for anyone worried about the trials of the present age.
