  1. wa'alaykumus salaam Haya, I have passed on the suggestion wa'alaykumu salaam Aishazaynap...??
  2. Question I wanted to ask a question concerning masah over socks or shoes. we have jumah here in school every friday. Most of the kids here go do wudu in the public bathrooms since we dont have a bathroom set aside for just muslim students. I wanted to ask is it allowed to just wipe over our shoes or do we have to take off our shoes and wipe over our sock or do we have to take off our shoes and socks and wipe over our feet and then put everything on. JazakAllah Kahir Answer In the name of Allah the Magnificent It is not permissible to make masah (to use wet hands) over shoes and the regular socks which are worn in today’s environment. Socks are of three types: (1) The socks which are called KHUFFAIN, (Leather socks). It is permissible to make masah over KHUFFAIN as it is proven from Hadith: Ja`far bin `Amr bin Umaiya Ad-Damri narrates: My father said, “I saw Rasulullah passing wet hands over his Khuffs (socks made from leather).”(Bukhari) (2) Thick socks which are not made from leather, but are so thick that they characterize the qualities of leather. E.g. they are waterproof. The conditions are that the socks are so durable that one is able to walk three or four miles without them tearing. It is permissible to make Masah over such socks. (3) Socks which have a leather soul. It is permissible to perform Masah on such socks. (4) Thin socks, not made of leather, nor do they possess the qualities of leather, but are like the regular socks made from cotton, wool, nylon etc. It is not permissible to make masah on such socks as it is not established with enough evidence that would enable one the leave the order of washing the feet as mentioned in the Qur’an. In regards to the masah over the shoes I have included a brief article which was written by Sheikh Mufti Taqi Uthmani. Making masah over shoes Some Fuqaha allow performing masah over the Jowrab (stokings, long socks) when it is thick, but none of them allow making masah on shoes. Sheikh Yusuf Benori (R.A.) writes, “None of the Imaams have given permission to make masah over shoes.”(Ma’arifus-Sunan Vol. 1, p. 347). The reason for this is that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) wiped over his shoes only when he already was in the state of Wudhu. He would perform a fresh Wudhu for every prayer, because he was already in the state of Wudhu, instead of washing his feet he would wipe over his shoes. The proof of this is in Sahih Ibn Khuzaimah, “It is reported from Ali (Radhi Allahu anhu) that he asked for a glass of water, he then performed a brief ablution and wiped over his shoes. He then said, this is how the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) used to perform his wudhu when his wudhu was not broken. (Sahih Ibn Khuzaimah, Vol. 1, Hadith 300, Chapter 154, p. 100). From this Hadith we learn that a person who does not have Wudhu, can’t wipe over his shoes. After the clear evidence has been brought, there is no flexibility in the issue. It is quite apparent that to perform Masah over shoes such as trainers, running shows or other footwear and gear is not permissible at all. In conclusion, I would suggest that for the Salaats which you pray in the school which includes Jummah, that you wear the leather socks from home after performing Wudhu and thereafter if the necessity to renew the Wudhu arises you perform masah over the leather socks after removing only your shoes. It is even better to stand on your shoes and perform the masah as one is aware that school lavatory floors could be impure.

  3. Refutations/Explanations of Misconceptions If (InshaAllah) we were to gather some articles on refutations on the many misconceptions regarding Islam, which category do you think they should go in? There are many subjects rights? so i was thinking of a sub-category, but where and what should it be called? Any thoughts anyone? Would really appreciate help in this and in finding such articles....i have a couple really good well written and detailed articles in a Q/A format
  4. Sunnats and Aadaab of Sleeping – Part 3 1. One should not while away one’s time after the Esha salaah in vain talk. Instead one should try to sleep as early as possible so that one can wake up for tahajjud salaah and perform his Fajr salaah on time. However, if there is a valid need e.g. participating in a deeni program, discussing Deeni masaail, an important mashwara etc, then it will be permissible for one to engage in discussions after Esha. عن أبي برزة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يكره النوم قبل العشاء والحديث بعدها (البخاري رقم 568) Hadhrat Abu Barzah (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) disliked one to sleep before Esha, and to engage in discussions after Esha (in the case where there is no need). عن عمر بن الخطاب قال : كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يسمر مع أبي بكر في الأمر من أمر المسلمين وأنا معهما (ترمذي رقم 169) Hadhrat Umar (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) engaged in discussions after Esha with Hadhrat Abu Bakr (Radhiallahu Anhu) regarding a matter concerning the Muslims while I was also present. عن عائشة زوج النبي قالت : ما رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم نائما قبل العشاء ولا لاغيا بعدها إما ذاكرا فيغنم وإما نائما فيسلم قالت عائشة زوج النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم . قالت : السمر لثلاثة : لعروس أو مسافر أو متهجد بالليل (مجمع الزوائد رقم 1761) Hadhrat Aaisha (Radhiallahu Anha) reports that she had never seen Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) sleep before Esha, nor did she see him engage in vain discussions after Esha. He would either engage in the remembrance of Allah Ta’ala after Esha thereby reaping the rewards of the Hereafter and becoming successful, or he would go to sleep thereby saving himself (from being engaged in things of no benefit). Hadhrat Aaisha (Radhiallahu Anha) further says: “Engaging in talks after Esha is permissible for three groups of people; for a married couple, the traveler (in order that he remains awake to complete the journey) and the one who intends performing salaah during the night.” 2. Recite the masnoon du`aas before sleeping. Below are a few masnoon duaas that should be read at the time one retires to bed: اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ أَمُوتُ وَ أَحْيَى O Allah. With Your name do I die and live. اللَّهُمَّ قِنِى عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ O Allah. Save me from Your punishment on the day when You shall raise Your servants (from the grave) اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَنَا وَسَقَانَا وَكَفَانَا وَآوَانَا فَكَمْ مِمَّنْ لَا كَافِيَ لَهُ وَلَا مُؤْوِيَ All praises are due to Allah Ta’ala, who gave us food, drink, fulfilled our needs and gave us shelter. There are many who do not have anyone to support them, nor anyone to provide them with shelter. عن حذيفة رضي الله عنه قال كان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا أخذ مضجعه من الليل وضع يده تحت خده ثم يقول اللهم باسمك أموت وأحيا وإذا استيقظ قال الحمد لله الذي أحيانا بعد ما أماتنا وإليه النشور. (بخارى رقم 6314 ) Hadrat Huzaifa (Radiallahu anhu) reports that when retiring to bed at night, Rasulullah (Salallahu alaihi wasallam) would place his (right) hand under his (right) cheek and would recite the duaa اللهم باسمك اموت و احيى , and upon awakening would recite الحمد لله الذى احيانا بعد ما اماتنا واليه النشور عن حفصة رضي الله عنها زوج النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان إذا أراد أن يرقد وضع يده اليمنى تحت خده ثم يقول اللهم قنى عذابك يوم تبعث عبادك ثلاث مرار. (ابو داود رقم 5047) Hadrat Hafsa (Radiallahu anha) reports that when Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) intended to sleep, he would place his right hand under his cheek and recite the following duaa thrice: اللَّهُمَّ قِنِى عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ عن أنس رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان إذا أوى إلى فراشه قال: الحمد لله الذي أطعمنا وسقانا وكفانا وآوانا فكم ممن لا كافي له ولا مؤوي. (مسلم رقم 2715) Hadhrat Anas (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) would recite the following Duaa when retiring to bed: اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَنَا وَسَقَانَا وَكَفَانَا وَآوَانَا فَكَمْ مِمَّنْ لَا كَافِيَ لَهُ وَلَا مُؤْوِي
  5. Revival of Islam Hazrat Moulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) once said: "I don’t know how to explain this aspect to you but it is my heart’s desire that every person should come onto the straight path of Islam, in such a manner that the beauty of Islam becomes manifest in every facet of his life. Just as people by merely witnessing the lives of the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) embraced Islam, similarly each and every Believer in this time should become a living role model of Islam for the world. The success of one’s Deen and dunya lies in this. Undoubtedly, if a Muslim reforms his life and remains totally committed to the Deen of Islam, then let alone him acquiring Deeni success, even his worldly problems and difficulties will be solved." (Malfoozaat Hakeemul Ummat 1/69)
  6. Yes sister Acacia is correct. Brother Arslan, hope you don't mind but you're stuck with being on the "Dawah Team" so you have more options available to you. Unfortunately permission is not granted to individual members or some such technical problem. Sister amaturrahman also has been added I didnt realise posts would need approving. Maybe the first few only, so let us see what happens
  7. Assalaamu 'alaykum brother Arslan, I think you should be able to post in the books section. Please try so we know

Show us falsehood as falsehood, and inspire us to abstain from it.
  9. Question is it sunnah to do musaafaha with two hands? give reference [hadith and name of book] Answer Rasulullah is reported to have said, 'The perfect way for one to greet is to shake hands.' (Mirqaat vol.8 pg.498) This was the way of the Sahaaba (Radhiallaahu Anhu), greeted each other and shook hands. On returning from a journey, they used to embrace each other also. (Shu'bul Imaan; Bayhaqi) This Sunnat of shaking hands should be encouraged as Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) has stated that mutual greeting creates love and unity. It is clear that both hands should be used in hand shakes. Imam Bukhari has devoted whole chapter in his Sahih Bukhari on 'Chapter of Shaking hands with both hands.' Hammaad ibn Zayd (Radhiallaahu Anhu) shook hands with ibn al-Mubaarak using both hands, then mentioned the Hadith of ibn Mas'ood (Radhiallaahu Anhu), 'Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) taught me the Tashahhud as he taught me a Sura from the Qur'aan while my hand was between his hands.' and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best Mufti Ebrahim Desai askimam
  10. Question I use to see some people shake hand with both hands for more respect or showing more affection, Some others are saying prophet muhammed (SA) Only shake hands with one hand, is there any hadeeth regarding this issue, what is the actual way in this regard, Answer In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh The masters of Islamic jurisprudence (fuqahā’) have mentioned that it is sunnah to use both hands in musāfahah. Musāfahah is defined as placing one’s palm in the palm of another. والمصافحة الأخذ باليد والتصافح مثله. والرجل يصافح الرجل إذا وضع صفح كفه في صفح كفه (لسان العرب 4/47؛ صادر) The sunnah method of musāfahah is to place the right palm in the right palm of the other person and the left hand on the back of the other person’s right hand. This method of musāfahah is proven through several ahādīth, such as the following narration of ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه. حدثنا أبو نعيم حدثنا سيف قال سمعت مجاهدا يقول حدثني عبد الله بن سخبرة أبو معمر قال سمعت ابن مسعود يقول: علمني رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم وكفي بين كفيه التشهد كما يعلمني السورة من القرآن ( التحيات لله والصلوات والطيبات السلام عليك أيها النبي ورحمة الله وبركاته السلام علينا وعلى عباد الله الصالحين أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأشهد أن محمدا عبده ورسوله ) . وهو بين ظهرانينا فلما قبض قلنا السلام – يعني – على النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم (صحيح البخاري 25/926، كتاب الاستئذان، باب الأخذ باليدين؛ رحيمية ديوبند) ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه said that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم taught me the tashahhud, while my palm was between his palms, as he used to teach me a sūrah from the Qur’ān (Bukhārī) ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه mentions that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم used two hands. The Sahābah رضي الله عنهم expressed the utmost respect for the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Therefore, it is unimaginable that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم placed both of his hands on Ibn Mas’ūd’s رضي الله عنه hand, yet Ibn Masūd رضي الله عنه only used one hand. Furthermore, using both hands in musāfahah was also the way of our pious predecessors. Consider the following hadīth by Imām Bukhārī: باب الأخذ باليدين وصافح حماد بن زيد ابن المبارك بيديه (المرجع السابق) The Chapter of [shaking] with Two Hands. And Hammād ibn Zayd shook hands with Ibn al-Mubārak using two hands (Ibid). In the above narration, Imām Bukhārī clearly explains that the proper method of musāfahah is with both hands. This is also the explanation of the fuqahā’ as seen in the examples below. وتكره المصاحفة بعد أداء الصلاة بكل حال أما عند لقاء المسلم لأخيه بعد السلام بكلتا يديه مع أخذ الإبهام وبغير حائل من ثوب أو غيره فسنة (الدرر المباحة، ص 64؛ مطبعة) Musāfahah is disliked after prayer in any situation. But when meeting a Muslim brother, it is sunnah to do musāfahah firmly with both hands after saying salām and without having any barrier, such as a piece of cloth, [between the hands] (al-Durar al-Mubāhah) وتجوز المصافحة والسنة فيها أن يضع يديه على يديه من غير حائل من ثوب أو غيره كذا في خزانة المفتين (الفتاوى العالمكيرية 5/369؛ رشيدية) Musāfahah is permissible and its sunnah method is to place one’s hand in the hand of another without any barrier, such as a piece of cloth, in between. This has also been mentioned in “Khazānah al-Muftīyīn” (al-Fatāwā al-‘Ālamghīrīyah) وتلاقى عبد اللّه بن المبارك وحماد بن زيد فتصافحا ويكفي هذا العمل فبيد واحدة تجزيء وباليدين أكمل (العرف الشذي على هامش سنن الترمذي 2/101، باب المصافحة؛ قديمي) ‘Abdullāh ibn al-Mubārak met Hammād ibn Zayd and they shook hands. This act [of musāfahah] is valid with one hand, but is more complete with two hands (al-‘Arf al-Shadhī) Imām Zafar Ahmad al-‘Uthmāni summarizes this entire discussion in his masterpiece, I’ilā al-Sunan, by stating: وهذه الآثار تدل على مشروعية المصافحة عند اللقاء وبه قال أبو حنيفة والجمهور وهل باليد الواحدة أو باليدين؟ فلا نص فيه ولكن المتوارث هو باليدين دون اليد الواحدة (إعلاء السنن 17/467؛ العلمية) All these narrations prove the validity of shaking hands when meeting someone. This is the opinion of Abū Hanīfah and the majority of scholars. But is it with one hand or two? Even though there is no clear, definitive narration for it, the method passed down, generation after generation, is with two hands, not one. Therefore, it is important to clarify that this issue is related to the preferred method of shaking hands, not the valid method. Hence, as important as it is to follow the sunnah to its fullest extent, it is just as important to not make minor issues the source of disunity, heated debates, and ill feelings towards fellow Muslims.

  11. Does talaaq take place through separation?Q: If a couple gets separated for some reason and the husband stops to bear any expenditure of his wife after getting separated. Does that mean their marriage will automatically dissolve after sometime? And if yes, how long after separation will the marriage itself dissolve? A: 1. No. By mere separation, talaaq does not take place. 2. As long as the husband does not issue the talaaq, the nikaah will still remain. And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best. الطَّلَاقُ مَرَّتَانِ فَإِمْسَاكٌ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ تَسْرِيحٌ بِإِحْسَانٍ وَلَا يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ أَن تَأْخُذُوا مِمَّا آتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَن يَخَافَا أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ اللَّـهِ فَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ اللَّـهِ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَا فِيمَا افْتَدَتْ بِهِ تِلْكَ حُدُودُ اللَّـهِ فَلَا تَعْتَدُوهَا وَمَن يَتَعَدَّ حُدُودَ اللَّـهِ فَأُولَـئِكَ هُمُ الظَّالِمُونَ ﴿٢٢٩﴾ فَإِن طَلَّقَهَا فَلَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ مِن بَعْدُ حَتَّى تَنكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَهُ فَإِن طَلَّقَهَا فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَا أَن يَتَرَاجَعَا إِن ظَنَّا أَن يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ اللَّـهِ وَتِلْكَ حُدُودُ اللَّـهِ يُبَيِّنُهَا لِقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿٢٣٠﴾ (سورة البقرةالآية 229-230) الطلاق على ضربين صريح وكناية فالصريح قوله أنت طالق ومطلقة وطلقتك فهذا يقع به الطلاق الرجعي ... ولا يفتقر إلى النية (الهداية 2/359) وأما الضرب الثاني وهو الكنايات لا يقع بها الطلاق إلا بالنية أو بدلالة الحاللأنها غير موضوعة للطلاق بل تحتمله وغيره فلا بد من التعيين أو دلالته (الهداية 2/373) Answered by: Mufti Zakaria Makada Checked & Approved: Mufti Ebrahim Salejee (Isipingo Beach)
  12. Asking for talaaq without a valid reasonQ: Is it true if a woman asks her husband to divorce her with no valid reason than she has shook the arsh of Allah or what is the sin for this? A: The actual Hadith you are referring to is as follows: Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said that the woman who seeks divorce from her husband without any valid reason will not smell the fragrance of Jannah (i.e. until she is not purified of this sin in the hereafter, she will not gain entry into paradise). And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best. عن ثوبان قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم أيما امرأة سألت زوجها الطلاق في غير ما بأس فحرام عليها ريح الجنة (سنن ابن ماجة #2055) Answered by: Mufti Zakaria Makada Checked & Approved: Mufti Ebrahim Salejee (Isipingo Beach)
  13. Muharram and the day of Aashura The divine system of Allah Ta’aala It is the divine system of Allah Ta’aala that He has afforded special virtue and significance to some things over others. From mankind, the Ambiyaa عليهم السلام have been blessed with distinguished positions and elevated statuses over others. From the different places in the world, the Haramain (Makkah Mukarramah and Madinah Munawwarah) have been accorded a special rank over the rest of the world. From the twelve months of the Islamic calendar, special sanctity and sacredness has been given to four specific months i.e. Zul-Qa’dah, Zul-Hijjah, Muharram and Rajab. By the same token, amongst the days of the Islamic year the day of Aashura has been blessed with exclusive virtue and immense blessings. عن أبي قتادة رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم صيام يوم عاشوراء إني أحتسب على الله أن يكفر السنة التي قبله It is reported from Abu Qataadah (Radhiallahu Anhu) that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “On account of observing the fast of Aashura, I have hope that Allah Ta’aala will expiate the sins of the past year.” (Ibnu Maajah 1/124, Saheeh Muslim 1/368) Ihyaaudden.co.za
  14. Therefore in sister Haya's case the salaat will be invalid inside her home following the Imam in the masjid due to the saffs not continuing till her home...right? Similar to pilgrims following the imams of the harm in their hotel rooms, their salaah will be invalid
  15. The Pre-Islamic (Jaahiliyya) Name for Jumu'a & the Events that led to the Name "Jumu'a" In pre-Islamic times [jaahiliyya], Jumu'a was called 'Urooba. Aloosi reports from Sheeshi that 'Urooba, originally from Aramaic, means "mercy." There are various opinions as to when and how the change from 'Urooba to Jumu'a came about: 1. 'Abdullaah Ibn 'Abbaas رضي الله عنهما narrates that it is called Jumu'a because it is derived from jam'un, which means to "collect" or "gather," and on this day Allaah gathered the dirt to make Aadam. This is further corroborated by a hadeeth that 'Aini رحمه الله mentions in his book, [with reference to Ibn Khuzaima] that once the Blessed Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم asked Salmaan al-Faarsee رضى الله عنه: "Do you know why Jumu'a is special [why it is called Jumu'a]?" Salmaan al-Faarsee رضى الله عنه said, "Allaah and His Blessed Prophet know best." The Blessed Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم replied, "The essence of your father Aadam was gathered on this day." 2. On this day, Quraish gathered by Qusai [great, great grandfather of the Blessed Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم] in Daar an-Nadwa (meeting place). 3. On this day, the chief of Quraish, Ka'b ibn Lu'ai, gathered his people to advise and instruct them on various matters. [1] Based on the last two opinions, the name Jumu'a was introduced by Quraish, either in the time of Qusai or Ka'b ibn Lu'ai. Ibn Hazm رحمه الله argued that the etymology of the word Jumu'a is not pre-Islamic, but in fact introduced by the Ansaar (Helpers) رضي الله عنهم of Madeena. He supports his view with the statement of Ibn Seereen رحمه الله, which is narrated by Qurtubi رحمه الله, Aloosi رحمه الله, 'Aini رحمه الله, Haafidh Ibn Hajar رحمه الله and most of the hadeeth masters [muhadditheen] and exegetes [mufassireen], that before the migration of the Blessed Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, the Ansaar رضي الله عنهم would observe that the Christians and Jews had appointed special days to gather and worship, discuss matters of faith and on which their leaders would advise the congregations. After this, the Ansaar رضي الله عنهم also decided to appoint a day for all to gather and worship and discuss matters of faith. This was the day of 'Urooba, which they named Jumu'a, since they would gather on this day.

  19. A Good Death Some people pass away in such a blessed manner, as if they had requested the angel of death to take their soul in that way. These things happen even up to this day but generally to those whose hearts are very clean. We just need to make slight adjustments to our eyes, ears, tongue and heart. When a person’s soul and body is totally compliant to the commands of Allah Ta‘ala, then Allah Ta’ala becomes happy with him and at the time of death he is given the glad tidings: يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ ﴿٢٧﴾ ارْجِعِي إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرْضِيَّةً ﴿٢٨﴾ فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي ﴿٢٩﴾ وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي ﴿٣٠﴾ “O compliant soul!
