Who gave the Qur’aan this name?

This is my first question toyou and it is read as follows:
Who was the first person to name our holy book (Qur'an) to be named QUR'AN?
I read from a magazine that it was ABUBEKER (R.A.). But I couldn't
believe! In sura al INSAN verse 23 it says, "We brought (down) to you
the Qur'an" .
Dear brother please give me a clear picture about this.
May Allah help you.
Praise be to Allaah;
You have answered your own question, as it were, because it is Allaah
who gave His Book this name,"Qur'aan."
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "The month of Ramadan in
which was revealed the Qur'aan . . ." [al-Baqarah 2:185] "Do they not
then consider the Qur'aan carefully . . .?" [al-Nisaa' 4:82] "So, when
the Qur'aan is recited, listen toit, and be silent that you may
receive mercy . . ." [al-A 'raaf 7:204] "Verily, Allaah has purchased
of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that
their shall be Paradise. They fight in Allaah's Cause, so they kill
(others) and are killed. It isa promise in truth which isbinding on
Him in the Tawraat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'aan . .
." [al-Tawbah 9:111] "And this Qur'aan isnot such as could ever be
produced by other than Alaah, but it is a confirmation of (the
revelation) which was before it, and a full explanation of the Book
wherein there is no doubt from the Lord of the 'Aalameen (mankind,
jinn and all that exists)" [Yunus10:37] "Verily, We have sent it down
as an Arabic Qur'aan in order that you might understand" [Yusuf 12:2]
"We relate unto you [Muhammad] the best of stories through Our
Revelations unto you, of this Qur'aan. And before this, you were among
those who knew nothing about it (the Qur'aan)." [Yusuf 12:3] "And
indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven of al-Mathaani (the seven
repeatedly recited verses, i.e. Soorat al-Faatihah) and the
GrandQur'aan." [al-Hijr 15:87]"So when you want to recite the Qur'aan,
seek refuge with Allaah from Shaytaan, the outcast (the cursed one)."
[al-Nahl 16:98] "Verily, this Qur'aanguides to that which is most just
. . ." [al-Israa' 17:9] "And We send down from the Qur'aan that which
is a healing and a mercy to those who believe, and it increases the
zaalimoon (wrongdoers) nothing but loss." [al-Israa' 17:82]"Say: 'If
mankind and the jinns were together to produce the like of this
Qur'aan, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they helped
one another.'" [al-Israa' 17:88]"And (it is) a Qur'aan which We have
divided)into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at
intervals. And We have revealed it by stages." [al-Israa' 17:106] "We
have not sent down the Qur'aan unto you [O Muhammad] to cause you
distress" [Ta-Ha 20:2]"Then High above all be Allaah, the True King.
And be not in haste (O Muhammad) with the Qur'aan before its
revelation is completed to you, and say: 'My Lord! Increase me in
knowledge.'" [Ta-Ha 20:114] "Ta-Seen [These letters are one of the
miracles of the Qur'aan, and none but Allaah (Alone) knows their
meanings]. These are the Verses of the Qur'aan, and (it is) a Book
(that makes things) clear" [al-Naml 27:1] "And verily, you (O
Muhammad) are receiving the Qur'aan from the One, All-Wise,
All-Knowing." [al-Naml 27:6] "Verily, He Who has given you (O
Muhammad) the Qur'aan will surely bring you back to the Ma'aad (place
of return, either to Makkah orto Pradise after your death) . . ."
[al-Qasas 28:85] "By the Qur'aan, fullof wisdom" [Yaa-Seen 36:2] "And
indeed, We have made the Qur'aan easy to understand and remember, then
is there any that will remember (or receive admonition)?" [al-Qamar
54:40] "That (this) is indeed an honourable recital (the Noble
Qur'aan)." [al-Waaqi'ah 56:77] "Had We sent down this Qur'aan on a
mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself andrending
asunder by the fear of Allah . . ." [al-Hashr 59:21] "or a little
more; and recite the Qur'aan (aloud) in a slow, (pleasanttone and)
style." [al-Muzzammil 73:4] "Nay!This is a Glorious Qur'aan"
[al-Burooj 85:21].....

Saying takbeer from Soorat al-Duha to Soorat al-Naas

Is it permissible to say tahleel (laa ilaaha ill-Allaah) and takbeer
(Allaahu akbar) from after Soorat al-Duha until Soorat al-Naas? Is
that proven from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) or the Sahaabah or Taabi'een?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
The scholars differed concerning the ruling on saying takbeer after
every soorah from Soorat al-Duha to al-Naas. Imam Ahmad regarded it as
mustahabb but the other imams differed with him. There is another
report from Imam Ahmad which is in accordance with the view of the
majority. The correct view is that it is not prescribed to say
takbeer, and this is not proven in any marfoo' hadeeth from the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Thereis also no
saheeh report about this takbeer from any of the Sahaabah (may Allaah
be pleased with them), rather it was proven from some of the qurraa'
(reciters) of the people of Makkah.
It was narrated that 'Ikrimah ibn Sulaymaan said: I recited to
Ismaa'eel ibn 'Abd-Allaah ibn Constantine, and when I reached
Wa'l-duha (i.e., Soorat al-Duha), he said tome: Say takbeer, say
takbeer at the end of every soorah until you complete (the Qur'aan).
'Abd-Allaah ibn Katheer told him that he recited toMujaahid and he
told him to do that, and Mujaahid told him that Ibn 'Abbaas had told
him to do that, and Ibn 'Abbaas told him that Ubayy ibn Ka'b told him
to do that, and Ubayy ibn Ka'b told him that the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) told him to do that.
Narrated by al-Haakim in al-Mustadrak (3/304).
This hadeeth is da'eef (weak). Its isnaad includes Ahmad ibn Muhammad
ibn 'Abd-Allaah ibn Abi Bazzah al-Muqri'. Abu Haatim said: His hadeeth
isda'eef (weak) and I will not narrate from him. Al-'Aqeeli said: His
hadeethis munkar (odd). Al-Dhahabi said: This is a ghareeb (strange)
hadeeth, and it is one of the hadeeth of al-Bazzi that were regarded
as munkar. Abu Haatim said: This is munkar. And he said: Al-Haakim
regarded his hadeeth about takbeeras saheeh, but it is munkar.
See: al-Du'afa' by al-'Aqeeli(1/127); and Mizaan al-I'tidaal (1/144,
145) andSiyar A'laam al-Nubala' (12/51), both by Imam al-Dhahabi.
Ibn Muflih al-Hanbali (mayAllaah have mercy on him)said:
Ahmad regarded it is mustahabb to say takbeer from the beginning of
Soorat al-Duha until the end of the Qur'aan. This was mentioned by Ibn
Tameem and others, and this is the recitation of the people of Makkah,
which al-Bazzi took from Ibn Katheer, and Ibn Katheer took it from
Mujaahid, andMujaahid took it from Ibn 'Abbaas, and Ibn 'Abbaas took
it from Ubayy ibn Ka'b, and Ubayy ibn Ka'b took it from the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). A number of them narrated
that, including al-Baghawi in his Tafseer, and the reason for that is
that the Wahy (revelation) ceased.
This is a ghareeb hadeeth, reported by Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn
'Abd-Allaah al-Bazzi, who is sound with regard to recitation but
da'eef (weak) with regard to hadeeth.
Ibn Haatim al-Raazi said: This is a munkar hadeeth.
It was also narrated from him – i.e., Imam Ahmad – that there should
be no takbeer, as is the view of all reciters. End quote.
Al-Adaab al-Shar'iyyah (2/295, 296).
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked
about a group who gathered to read the entire Qur'aan (khatmah) and
they were reading to 'Aasim and Abu 'Amr. When they reached
Sooratal-Duha, they did not say Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah or Allaahu
akbar, until they reached the end of the Qur'aan. Is what they did
better or not? Is the hadeeth which is narrated about saying tahleel
and takbeer saheeh and mutawaatir, or not?
He replied:
Praise be to Allaah. Yes, if they recited in accordance with a
recitation other than that of Ibn Katheer, their not doing that is
better, and is in fact what is prescribed and is Sunnah. These imams
of recitation did not say takbeer either at the beginning of the
soorahs or at the ends. If it is acceptable to say that Ibn Katheer
narrated the takbeer from the Messenger of Allaah (peaceand blessings
of Allaah be upon him), it is acceptable for others to say that these
people narrated the omission of that from the Messenger of Allaah
(peaceand blessings of Allaah be upon him) too. It is not possible
that the recitationof the majority that was narrated by more people
than the recitation of Ibn Katheer omitted something enjoined by the
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him),
because those who narrated mutawaatir reports could not have concealed
something for which there was good reason to narrate it.

Hadees

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: "He will not enter
Paradise whose neighbour is not secure from his wrongful conduct."
[Muslim]
Make sure that a wedding, construction or other eventat your house
does not encroach upon the privacy, peacefulness or clean environment
of your neighbours or neighbourhood. Does noisefrom your house disturb
your neighbour? Did you park your car in such a wayas to cause your
neighbourinconvenience? Do you even know who your neighbour is? Rasul
Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: "If you are kind to your
neighbour youwill be a believer." [Tirmidhi]

Q & A

Q:->
brother
I got 1 question, what if a women divorce, didn't marry or widow?
What are the rules? Sorry if I am being silly but I want to know
correct thing.
Thank you
Julfika/

A:->Sister Julfika,
Mahram is not the husband only. Any person who qualifies as her Mahram
according to the Sharee'ah may accompanyher. The ruling that a woman
may not travel alone is from the following Hadeeth:
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (1729) and Muslim (2391) from Ibn 'Abbaas (may
Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) said: "No woman should travel except with a
mahram, and no man should enter upon her unless there is a mahram with
her." A man said: "O Messenger of Allaah, I want to go out with such
and such an army and my wife wants to go for Hajj." He said: "Go out
with her."
In case of the sister above,one possible option if she has no husband
to support, may be her children (her sons, if any) when they become
able, and can take her to the Hajj.

Writing Qur’aan on mobile phones in something other than the ‘Uthmaani script

A computer company is developing an adhkaar program to work on mobile
phones. The description of the programis: Displaying some adhkaar,
ayaat, and ahadeeth that urge to remember Allah, on the mobile screen.
There are some difficulties we face regarding using the 'Uthmaani
script and vowels.

The question is:
Is it permissible to display few ayaat in a script other than the
'Uthmaani and not be voweled on the mobile screen to remind of zikr
and du'a?.

Praise be to Allaah.

It is not permissible to write the Mus-haf in anything other than the
'Uthmaani script that was agreed upon at the time of the Sahaabah.
Ashhab said: Maalik (may Allaah have mercy on him)was asked: Can the
Mus-haf be written in the scripts that the people are used to. He
said: No, it should be written as it was written initially.
This was narrated by Abu 'Amr al-Daani in al-Muqni', then he said:
None of the scholars of the ummah disagreed with that.
Imam Ahmad (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: It is haraam to differ
from the script of the Mus-haf of'Uthmaan in ya', waw, alif or any
other letter.
Al-Bayhaqi said in Shu'ab al-Eeeman: Whoever writes a Mus-haf should
adhere to the letters as they are written in these Mus-hafs and not
write them differently or changeanything that they wrote, for they had
more knowledge and were more sincere in heart and in speech, and were
more trustworthy than us, so we should not think that we know better
than them.
And he narrated that Zayd said: Recitation should be done in
accordance with the Sunnah. Sulaymaan ibn Dawood al-Haashimi said:
This means, do not differ from the people, rather follow the Sunnah.
He said: I heard somethingsimilar in meaning from Abu 'Ubayd
concerning that, and you see that the reciters never paid any
attention to the way the Arabic language is written if that differs
from the script of the Mus-haf and adhering to the script of the
Mus-haf is one of the established ways that no one has the right to
differ from. End quote.
See: al-Burhaan fi 'Uloom al-Qur'aan by al-Zarkashi (1/379); al-Itqaan
by al-Suyooti (4/146).
Al-Suyooti (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Itqaan: They are
unanimously agreed that it is obligatory to follow the script of the
'UthmaaniMus-hafs in [rules of tajweed]. End quote from al-Itqaan fi
'Uloom al-Qur'aan (1/250).
All of this applies if what ismeant is writing the Mus-haf in full.
But when it comes to writing a verse or a few verses, and quoting them
in books or magazines, and the like, there is nothing wrong with it,
and this is what people doin their books, although it is better to use
the script of the Mus-haf whenever possible, and to quote it directly
from the Mus-haf.
The ruling on that has been explained in the answer to question no. 97741 .
Based on that:
There is nothing wrong with what you have mentioned about showingsome
verses on the screens of mobile phones in something other than the
'Uthmaani script, if it isnot possible to show themin the 'Uthmaani
script, but one should take care to make sure than the verses that are
written in this manner are those thatare usually easy to read, and not
subject to mistakes. And one should take care to make sure that they
are written correctly so that there will be no errors in reading and
publishing them.

And Allaah knows best.

“Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelve months (in a year),

The month of Rajab is one of the sacred months of which Allaah says
(interpretation of the meaning):
"Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelve months (in a
year), so was it ordained by Allaah on the Day when He created the
heavens and the earth; of them four are Sacred (i.e. the 1st, the 7th,
the 11th and the 12th months of the Islamic calendar). That is the
right religion, so wrong not yourselves therein"
[al-Tawbah 9:36]
