QUALIFICATIONS FOR PREACHING
Shaddad Bin Hakeem (rahmatullah alayh) said that only a man with the following qualities should teach (the Deen) to others:
* He reminds people of Allah's bounties inducing gratitude (shukr) in them.
* He reminds them of their sins inducing repentance in them.
* He reminds them that Shaitaan is their enemy so that they stay far from him.
If these ingredients are lacking, the talk is a calamity and the speaker simply seeks to project his image. His motive is riya (show).
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that every discussion devoid of Allah's Thikr will be a calamity on the Day of Qiyaamah for the speaker.
