نُبْذَةٌ مُخْتَصَرَةٌ عَنِ الْعَلَّامَةِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ الْعُثَيْمِينِ.

A brief biography of the scholar Muhammad bin Salih al-Uthaymeen.

وَالْخُطَبُ وَاللِّقَاءَاتُ وَالْمَقَالَاتُ، كَمَا صَدَرَ لَهُ آلَافُ السَّاعَاتِ الصَّوْتِيَّةِ الَّتِي سَجَّلَتْ مُحَاضَرَاتِهِ وَخُطَبَهُ وَلِقَاءَاتِهِ وَبَرَامِجَهُ الْإِذَاعِيَّةَ وَدُرُوسَهُ الْعِلْمِيَّةَ فِي تَفْسِيرِ الْقُرْآنِ الْكَرِيمِ وَالشُّرُوحَاتِ الْمُتَمَيِّزَةِ لِلْحَدِيثِ الشَّرِيفِ وَالسِّيرَةِ النَّبَوِيَّةِ وَالْمُتُونِ وَالْمَنْظُومَاتِ فِي الْعُلُومِ الشَّرْعِيَّةِ وَالنَّحْوِيَّةِ.

His legacy includes numerous sermons, meetings, and articles. Thousands of hours of audio recordings have been released, capturing his lectures, radio programs, and scholarly lessons on Quranic exegesis, along with his insightful commentaries on the Prophetic tradition, biography, and foundational texts in Islamic jurisprudence and Arabic grammar.

وَإِنْفَاذًا لِلْقَوَاعِدِ وَالضَّوَابِطِ وَالتَّوْجِيهَاتِ الَّتِي قَرَّرَهَا فَضِيلَتُهُ -رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى- لِنَشْرِ مُؤَلَّفَاتِهِ وَرَسَائِلِهِ وَدُرُوسِهِ وَمُحَاضَرَاتِهِ وَخُطَبِهِ، وَفَتَاوَاهُ وَلِقَاءَاتِهِ، تَقُومُ مُؤَسَّسَةُ الشَّيْخِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ الْعُثَيْمِينِ الْخَيْرِيَّةُ بِعَوْنِ اللَّهِ وَتَوْفِيقِهِ - بِوَاجِبِ وَشَرَفِ الْمَسْؤُولِيَّةِ لِإِخْرَاجِ كَافَّةِ آثَارِهِ الْعِلْمِيَّةِ وَالْعِنَايَةِ بِهَا.

To honor the guidelines and directives he established for the dissemination of his books, treatises, lessons, lectures, sermons, fatwas, and interviews, the Sheikh Muhammad bin Salih al-Uthaymeen Charitable Foundation—by the grace and guidance of Allah—has taken on the honorable responsibility of publishing and preserving his entire scholarly output.

وَبِنَاءً عَلَى تَوْجِيهَاتِهِ -رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى- أُنْشِئَ لَهُ مَوْقِعٌ خَاصٌّ عَلَى شَبَكَةِ الْمَعْلُومَاتِ الدَّوْلِيَّةِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ تَعْمِيمِ الْفَائِدَةِ الْمَرْجُوَّةِ بِعَوْنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى- وَتَقْدِيمِ جَمِيعِ آثَارِهِ الْعِلْمِيَّةِ مِنَ الْمُؤَلَّفَاتِ وَالتَّسْجِيلَاتِ الصَّوْتِيَّةِ.

Following his instructions, a dedicated website was launched to provide universal access to his writings and audio recordings, ensuring that his knowledge continues to benefit the public.
