*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -* - Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

General Dought & clear, - * 2] Is there a Sunnah prayer before Jumua‘ah?











We know from the saheeh hadeeths that there are four rak'ahs before
Zuhr. How should we do these rak'ahs on Friday? It is known that there
are no Sunnah prayers before Jumu'ah, but for a person who has the
habit of praying thesefour rak'ahs, is it acceptable for him to do
them on Friday? Is it acceptable for him to praythem before the sun
passes the zenith?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
There is no proven report from the Prophet (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) that he prescribed a regular Sunnah (Sunnah
raatibah) prayer to be offered before it, and there is no proven
report from any ofthe Companions of the Prophet (blessings and peace
of Allah be upon him) that they prayed anyregular Sunnah prayer before
Jumu'ah like the regular Sunnah prayer of Zuhr or any other prayer.
It is not valid to pray the regular Sunnah prayer of Zuhr on Friday,
because Jumu'ah is not Zuhr; rather it is a prayer with its own
rulings. So it is notZuhr and it is not valid either to compare it to
Zuhr in that regard.
See the answer to question no. 114765
With regard to the report which says that Ibn Mas'ood (may Allah be
pleased with him) used topray four rak'ahs before Jumu'ah and four
afterwards, it was narrated by at-Tirmidhi ina mu'allaqan which he
narrated in a way that indicates that it is weak; itis also mawqoof,
with a isnaad that ends with Ibn Mas'ood. The commentator on
at-Tirmidhi narrated from al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on
him) that 'Abd ar-Razzaaq and at-Tabaraani narrated it ina marfoo'
report, but its isnaad has some weakness and interruptions, and a
report that is like this cannot be quoted as evidence.
See: Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa'imah, 8/261
Shaykh al-Albaani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: (It is) munkar,
as it says in as-Silsilah ad-Da'eefah, 3/83
Secondly:
It is mustahabb for the one who comes to Jumu'ah to offer voluntary
prayers beforehand, whatever he is able to do, from when he enters the
mosque until the imam comes out to the people, without that being
limited to a specific number. So he may pray two or four rak'ahs, or
whatever Allahwills that he should pray.
Al-Bukhaari (883) and Muslim (657) narrated that Salmaan al-Faarisi
said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
"Whoever does ghusl on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can,
uses (hair) oil or perfumes himself with the perfume of his house,
then goes out (for the Jumu'ah prayer) and does not separate between
two (persons sitting together in the mosque), then prays as much as is
decreed for him, then remains silent whilst the imam is speaking, his
sins between the present and the last Friday will be forgiven for
him."
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said, discussing matters
that are specific to Friday:
It is not makrooh to pray on Friday at the time of the zenith,
according to ash-Shaafa'i (may Allah have mercy on him) and those who
agreed with him. This is the view favoured by our shaykh,
Abu'l-'Abbaas ibn Taymiyah, and he did not base his view on the
hadeeth of Layth from Mujaahid from Abu'l-Khaleel from Abu Qataadah
from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), which
states that it is makrooh to pray at midday except on Friday, and he
said: "Hell flares up (at noon) except on Friday". Rather he based his
view on a report which states that whoever comes to Jumu'ah, it is
mustahabb for him to pray until the imam comes out.
He quoted the hadeeth of Salmaan mentioned above, then he said: The
report recommends praying as much as is decreed for one, and not
stopping until the time when the imam comes out.
Hence more than one of the salaf, including 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may
Allah be pleased with him), who was followed in that by Imam Ahmad ibn
Hanbal, said that the appearance of the imam prevents prayer and his
khutbah prevents speaking. They said that the factor which prevents
prayer is the appearance of the imam, not the mid-point of the day
(noon).
Moreover, if the people are inside the mosque, beneath the roof, and
they cannot tell when the zenith occurs, and a man is focusing on his
prayer, he does not know when the zenith occurs and he cannot go out,
stepping over people's necks to look at the sun and come back, and it
is not prescribed for him to do that. End quote from Zaadal-Ma'aad,
1/365
Ash-Shawkaani also regarded this view as being more correct and
henoted that the hadeeth ofSalmaan mentioned above makes an exception
to the general meaning of the hadeeths that forbid praying at the time
of the zenith. See Nayl al-Awtaar, 3/313
This view was also favoured by Shaykh Saalihal-Fawzaan (may Allah
preserve him) and he quoted as evidence for it something similar to
what was narrated from Ibn al-Qayyim.

General Dought & clear, - * Evidence for the prescription of udhiyah, and whetherit is obligatory or recommended








Brief
I read the fatwa on your site, which says that udhiyah is Sunnah, but there is no strong evidence on your website to support this view. Could you please present some evidence that udhiyah is Sunnah and not obligatory? What about the hadith “Whoever can afford it but does not offer a sacrifice, let him not come near our prayer-place.” [Ibn Maajah, hadith no. 3123]?
-
Praise be to Allah
Firstly:
Concerning this issue there is a well-known difference of opinion among the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them). Most of the scholars are of the view that udhiyah is Sunnah, and is not obligatory.
The Hanafis and Imam Ahmad, according to one report, which is also the view favoured by Ibn Taymiyah, are of the view that it is obligatory for one who can afford it.
Ibn Qudaamah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The majority of scholars are of the view that udhiyah is a confirmed Sunnah and is not obligatory.
That was narrated from Abu Bakr, ‘Umar, Bilaal and Abu Mas‘ood al-Badri (may Allah be pleased with them). It was also the view of Suwayd ibn Ghafalah, Sa‘eed ibn al-Musayyab, ‘Alqamah, al-Aswad, ‘Ata’, ash-Shaafa‘i, Ishaaq, Abu Thawr, and Ibn al-Mundhir. Rabee‘ah, Maalik, ath-Thawri, al-Awzaa‘i, al-Layth, and Abu Haneefah said: It is obligatory, because of the report narrated by Abu Hurayrah, according to which the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever can afford it but does not offer a sacrifice, let him not come near our prayer-place.” And it was narrated from Mikhnaf ibn Sulaym that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “O people, each household, each year, must offer a sacrifice (udhiyah) and an ‘ateerah [a sacrifice that was offered during Rajab in the pre-Islamic period].”
There is also the report narrated by ad-Daaraqutni, with his isnaad from Ibn ‘Abbaas, that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “There are three things that are obligatory for me, but for you they are optional.” According to another report, they are: “Witr, the sacrifice (udhiyah) and the two (Sunnah) rak‘ahs of Fajr.”
And the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:” Whoever wants to offer the udhiyah, when the first ten days of Dhu’l-Hijjah begin, let him not remove anything of his hair or skin.” Narrated by Muslim. Offering the udhiyah is connected to wanting to do it, but that which is obligatory cannot be connected to wanting to do it.
End quote fromal-Mughni(11/95).
Secondly:
Each group of scholars quoted several things as evidence for its view, but the evidence is not free of some reservations concerning its isnaads, or some dispute concerning its interpretation. We will limit our discussion to the most significant of the marfoo‘ hadiths.
With regard to the first hadith quoted by those who say that it is obligatory:
It is the hadith of Abu Hurayrah, according to which the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever can afford it but does not offer a sacrifice, let him not come near our prayer-place.” [Ibn Maajah, hadith no. 3123]
Some of the leading scholars of hadith did not accept that it is marfoo‘ (attributed to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)), and they judged it to be the words of Abu Hurayrah, not the words of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).
Al-Bayhaqi said in hisSunan(9/260): I heard that Abu ‘Eesa at-Tirmidhi said: With regard to the hadith narrated by Abu Hurayrah, it may be soundly attributed to him, but it is mawqoof (that is, it is the words of the Sahaabi and cannot be attributed to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)). It was narrated by Ja‘far ibn Rabee‘ah and others from ‘Abd ar-Rahmaan al-A‘raj from Abu Hurayrah as a mawqoof report. End quote.
Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar said: It was narrated by Ibn Maajah and Ahmad, and its men are thiqaat, but there is a difference of opinion as to whether it is marfoo‘ or mawqoof. The view that it is mawqoof is more likely to be correct. This was stated by at-Tahhaawi and others. Moreover, it does not clearly state that (offering the udhiyah) is obligatory. End quote fromFath al-Baari912/98).
The view that it is mawqoof was deemed more likely to be correct by Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr, ‘Abd al-Haqq inal-Ahkaam al-Wusta(4/127), al-Mundhiri inat-Targheeb wa’t-Tarheeb, Ibn ‘Abd al-Haadi inat-Tanqeeh(2/498). See:Haashiyat Muhaqqiqi Sunan Ibn Maajah(4/303).
The second hadith is the hadith of Abu Ramlah from Mikhnaf ibn Sulaym, in a marfoo‘ report: “O people, each household, each year, must offer a sacrifice (udhiyah) and an ‘ateerah.” Narrated by Abu Dawood (2788), at-Tirmidhi (1596), Ibn Maajah (3125).
The ‘ateerah was a sacrifice that they used to offer during Rajab [before Islam]. It was also known as ar-Rajabiyyah.
A number of scholars classed this report as da‘eef (weak), because Abu Ramlah, whose name was ‘Aamir, is unknown.
Al-Khattaabi said: This hadith is da‘eef, and Abu Ramlah is unknown.
End quote fromMa‘aalim as-Sunan(2/226).
Az-Zayla‘i said: ‘Abd al-Haqq said: Its isnaad is da‘eef. Ibn al-Qattaan said: The problem with it is the fact that Abu Ramlah, whose name was ‘Aamir, is unknown; he is only known for this report, which was reported from him by Ibn ‘Awn.
End quote fromNasab ar-Raayah(4/112).
With regard to those who say that it is recommended, they quoted as evidence a number of marfoo‘ hadiths, the most important of which are the two hadiths that were quoted by Ibn Qudaamah (may Allah have mercy on him).
The first hadith is the hadith of Ibn ‘Abbaas, according to which the Messenger of Allah (sa) (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “There are three things that are obligatory for me, but for you they are optional: Witr, the sacrifice (udhiyah) and Duha prayer.” Narrated by Ahmad (2050) and al-Bayhaqi (2/467).
This hadith was classed as da‘eef by a number of earlier and later leading scholars of hadith. Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The reason for its being classed as da‘eef is that it was narrated by Abu Janaab al-Kalbi, from ‘Ikrimah. But Abu Janaab is da‘eef and mudallis [i.e., he engaged in tadlees, which is when a narrator narrates a hadith that he did not hear directly from his shaykh, without mentioning the name of the third party from whom he did hear it, using wording that may or may not give the impression that he heard it directly], and he narrated by saying ‘an (from) [this is weaker than saying “So and so told me” and the like, especially on the part of one who is mudallis]. The leading scholars such as Ahmad, al-Bayhaqi, Ibn as-Salaah, Ibn al-Jawzi, an-Nawawi and others deemed this hadith to be da‘eef.
End quote from al-Talkhees al-Habeer(2/45). See also (2/258).
The second hadith is the hadith of Umm Salamah, according to which the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “When the ten (days of Dhu’l-Hijjah) begin, and one of you wants to offer a sacrifice (udhiyah), he should not remove anything from his hair or nails.” Narrated by Muslim (1977).
Imam ash-Shaafa‘i said: This indicates that the udhiyah is not obligatory, because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “and [he] wants”, so he connected it to his wanting to do it. If it were obligatory, he would have said: let him not remove anything from his hair until he offers the udhiyah.
End quote fromal-Majmoo‘(8/386).
But this deduction is subject to further discussion, because making something dependent upon wanting to do it does not prove that it is not obligatory.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
In my view, making it dependent upon wanting to do it does not rule out its being obligatory, if evidence to that effect is proven. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said concerning the miqaats: “They are for them and for anyone other than their people who comes to them, wanting to perform Hajj and ‘Umrah.” This does not mean that Hajj and ‘Umrah are not obligatory, based on other evidence. … The udhiyah is not obligatory for one who cannot afford it, so he does not want or intend to do it. So in this regard it is valid to divide people into those who want or intend to do it and those who do not, based on whether they can afford it or not.
End quote fromAhkaam al-Udhiyah wa’dh-Dhakaah(p. 47).
Conclusion: there are some reservations about the hadiths which say that the udhiyah is obligatory, although some of the scholars classed some of these hadiths as hasan. The same applies to the hadiths which state that it is recommended; in fact, in terms of their isnaads, they are more weak.
Hence Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said, at the end of his lengthy essay Ahkaam al-Udhiyah wa’dh-Dhakaah: These are the opinions of the scholars and the evidence that they give. We have quoted them in order to highlight the status and importance of the udhiyah in Islam. The evidence for each view is almost equal in strength, and the prudent approach dictates that one should not neglect to do it if one can afford it, because of what it involves of venerating and remembering Allah, and discharging one’s obligation with certainty. End quote.
Thirdly:
There are two things that support the view that the udhiyah is not obligatory:
1.
The principle that things are not obligatory unless proven otherwise: so long as there is no sound proof of it being obligatory, then the basic principle is that it is not obligatory.
Shaykh Ibn Baaz said: The ruling on the udhiyah is that it is Sunnah if one can afford it, but it is not obligatory, because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to sacrifice two rams that were white speckled with black, and during his lifetime and after his death (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), the Sahaabah also used to offer the udhiyah, as the Muslims continued to do after their time, and there is no report in the shar‘i evidence to suggest that the udhiyah is obligatory. The view that it is obligatory is a weak view.
End quote fromMajmoo‘ Fataawa Ibn Baaz(18/36)
2.
The saheeh reports that were narrated from the Sahaabah.
It was narrated in saheeh reports from Abu Bakr, ‘Umar and others that they did not offer the udhiyah, because they did not want the people to think that it was obligatory.
Al-Bayhaqi narrated inMa‘rifat as-Sunan wa’l-Athaar(14/16, 18893) from Abu Sareehah who said: I lived during the time of Abu Bakr and ‘Umar; they were neighbours of mine, and they did not offer the udhiyah.
Al-Bayhaqi said, after quoting this: It was narrated to us in the books of as-Sunan, from the hadith of Sufyaan ibn Sa‘eed ath-Thawri, from his father, and the hadith of Mutarrif and Ismaa‘eel, from ash-Sha‘bi, and in some of their reports it says: That was because they did not want to be taken as an example [and think that the udhiyah was obligatory].
See also:as-Sunan al-Kubra(9/444).
An-Nawawi said inal-Majmoo‘(8/383): With regard to the report which speaks about Abu Bakr and ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), it was narrated by al-Bayhaqi and others with a hasan isnaad. End quote.
Al-Haythami said: It was narrated by at-Tabaraani inal-Kabeerand its men are the men ofas-Saheeh. End quote fromMajmoo‘ az-Zawaa’id(4/18). It was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inal-Irwa’(4/354).
Al-Bayhaqi (9/445) narrated with his isnaad from Abu Mas‘ood al-Ansaari (that he said): I refrain from offering the udhiyah even though I can afford it, for fear that my neighbour may think that it is a must for me. Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inal-Irwa’.
Conclusion: there is a considerable difference of opinion among the scholars, but the view that it is recommended is what seems more likely to be correct in our view.
For those who can afford it and want to be prudent and not omit to offer the udhiyah, this is more on the safe side and more certain of doing what is expected of one, as we quoted above from Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him).
If anyone wishes to know more, let him see:Ahkaam al-Udhiyah wa’dh-Dhakaahby Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, and al-Mufassal fi Ahkaam al-Udhiyah by Husaam ad-Deen ‘Affaanah, as he discusses the issue in a very straightforward style.
And Allah knows best.
