••• HEART TOUCHING STORY •••

There was an old family that was financially stable, they earned
enough but lived in a simple, little hut. They didn't have proper
carpetjust bits and pieces of it here and there, no nice furniture nor
a big tele, just a simple little house with no luxurious stuff.
The people of the community who lived nearby used to visit this woman
that lived in this small hut and they wouldsee how run down her home
was and they talked amongst themselves in the community. "Have you
seen what dump they livein, it's a sham! they haven't even chairs to
sit on nor carpets. The wallpapers all peeling. What do they do with
themoney they earn? her husband has a high paid job!"
One day one of the woman's friends come to her house and they were
sitting chatting and the friend says 'Your husbands has a well payed
job so why don't you get this house done up?'
The woman replies 'We've got another houseso we use our money on that
instead because we don't see the point of spending it on here'.
The woman's friend is surprised and says 'Oh i didn't know you had
another house, where is this house?'
The woman replies 'In Jannah'
How often do we decorate our homes? InshALLAH let's do good actions
each day and slowly your house will bebuilt in bricks of gold
andsilver. The more good deeds you do your house will have planning
permission to grow :) Let's utilise our wealth and help the orphans,
the widows, the ill. Let's utilise our wealth to help build mosques.
May ALLAH grant us all beautiful homes in the hereafter, Aameenlife.
We should not think that we have killed our nafs and thus become
unmindful.

Fathwa, - Ruling on entering the bathroom with coins thatbear the name of Allaah the exalted

Question
Some currencies bear phrases like 'none is trulyworthy of worship but
Allaah'. Is it permissible for one to enter the bathroom carrying such
currencies in his pocket? Does the same ruling apply to pieces of
paper on which some verses of the Quran are written? Thank you .
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
Indeed, revering the Name of Allaah The Exalted is an aspect of
revering Allaah The Exalted Himself, and it is arespectful gesture is
not to enter an impure place such as the bathroom with what bears the
Name of Allaah The Exalted. Allaah The Exalted Says (what means): {
That [is so]. And whoever honors the symbols of Allaah – indeed, it is
from the piety of hearts. } [Quran 22:32]
Hence, it is impermissible to carry those coins or scraps of paper
that bear the Name of Allaah The Exalted along with you into the
bathroom unless you fear that they will be stolen or lost if you leave
them outside the bathroom. They should be put inside a pocket or
hidden. Furthermore, one can empty his pockets from all scraps ofpaper
which bear the name of Allaah The Exalted that are not needed except
for coins and money that is necessary.

Fathwa, - Siwaak is also used with false teeth

Question
Will a man who has false teeth be rewarded for using theSiwaak?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
Most of the scholars are of the view that using the Siwaak is a
confirmed act of the Sunnah. It should be usedat all times,
particularly on five occasions: before one prays, performs Wudhoo'
(ablution), recites the Quran, wakes up as well as when the mouth
smells bad. As evidence, 'Aa'ishah narrated that the Prophet , said: "
(Using) the Siwaak purifies the mouth and pleases The Lord. " [Ahmad
and An-Nasaa'i]
There is no doubt that this ruling includes those who have either
natural or false teeth. That is because the purpose of using the
Siwaak is to keep the mouth clean and free of any offensive odur.
Given that, false and natural teeth are the same in this respect.

Fathwa, - Gender of the newborn isirrelevant to the signs of purity

Question
Is the post-partum period when the newborn is a male the same as when
it is a female?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
Scholars stated that thereare two signs, either of which indicates the
end of menstruation or post-partum bleeding:
1- Cessation of blood: this means that when a woman wipes her
vaginawith a piece of cotton or white cloth, she does not find any
trace of blood.
2- Emission of white discharge which marks the end of
menstruation or post-partum bleeding. It is the strongest evidence
with which a woman realizes that she has become pure. It is narrated
that women used to send pieces of cotton with yellowish traces to
'Aa'ishah andshe would say to them: " Do not hasten until you see the
white discharge,"meaning purification from menstruation. " [Maalik]
These are the two signs of purification regardlesswhether the newborn
is male or female. This ruling is general and the scholars did not
provide a different ruling in this respect.
