*- 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)./-

He wants to observe i’tikaaf on the odd-numbered nights only

Is it permissible for me to observe i’tikaaf on the odd-numbered nights in Ramadaan, because I cannot observe i’tikaaf forthe full ten days because Iam newly married and my wife will be staying alone in my house, even though my house is close to where my parents live?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It is better for a Muslim toobserve i’tikaaf during all of the last ten days, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Al-Bukhaari and Muslim narrated from‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that theProphet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to spend the last ten days of Ramadaan in ‘i’tikaaf, until he passed away. Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2025) and Muslim (1171).
If he cannot spend all of the last ten days in i’tikaaf, and he limits himself to some of the days or nights, there is nothing wrong with that. Al-Bukhaari narrated that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him) vowed to spend one night in i’tikaafin al-Masjid al-Haraam, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told him to fulfil his vow. Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2042) and Muslim (1656). This indicates that it is valid to observe i'tikaaf for one night.
In the answer to question no. 38037 we stated that there is no minimum for i’tikaaf and we quoted a fatwa from Shaykh Ibn Baaz concerning that.
What you should do is strive hard in worship during those nights, and strove to earn as much hasanah as much as you can.
And Allaah knows best./ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en

Is it valid to observe i’tikaaf in any mosque?

Is it valid to observe i’tikaaf in any mosque?.
Praise be to Allaah.
The scholars differed concerning the characteristics of the mosque in which it is permissible to observe i’tikaaf. Some said that it is valid to observe i’tikaaf in any mosque, even if prayers in congregation are not held there, based on the general meaning of the verse in which Allaah says (interpretationof the meaning): “And do not have sexual relations with them (your wives) while you are in I‘tikaaf (i.e. confining oneself in a mosque for prayers and invocations leaving the worldly activities) in the mosques”[al-Baqarah 2:187]
Imam Ahmad was of the view that it is conditional upon it being in a mosquein which prayers are held in congregation. He quoted the following evidence for that:
1 – The words of ‘Aa’ishah: “There should be no i’tikaaf except in a mosque in which prayers in congregation are held (masjid jamaa’ah).” Narrated by al-Bayhaqi, classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in his essay Qiyaam Ramadaan.
2 – Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “There should be no i’tikaaf except in a mosque in which prayer isestablished.” Al-Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 5/212.
3 – If a person observes i’tikaaf in a mosque in which prayers in congregation are not held, this will lead to one of two things:
(i) Either he will miss prayer in congregation, and it is notpermissible for a man to miss prayer in congregation without a valid excuse.
(ii) Or he will go out a great deal in order to pray in another mosque, which defeats the purpose of i’tikaaf.
See al-Mughni, 4/461.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen said in al-Sharh al-Mumti’ (6/312): I’tikaaf is not valid unless it is observed in a mosquein which people gather (to pray)?
Is what is meant a mosque in which Jumu’ahprayers are held, or one inwhich prayers in congregation (jamaa’ah) are held?
The answer is: a mosque in which prayers in congregation are held; it does not have to be one in which Jumu’ah prayers are held, because the mosque in which prayers in congregation are not held is not a mosque in the true sense of the word, such as if the mosque has been abandoned by its people or they have moved away.
It is not essential that the mosque be one in which Jumu’ah prayers are held, because Jumu’ah does nothappen repeatedly and going out to attend Jumu’ah does not affect i’tikaaf, unlike the five daily prayers which happen repeatedly every day and night.
This condition – that the mosque be one in which prayers are held in congregation – applies if the person observing i’tikaaf is a man. If it is a woman, her i’tikaaf is valid in any mosque, evenif it is one in which prayers are not held in congregation, because prayer in congregation is not obligatory for woman.
Ibn Qudaamah said in al-Mughni:
A woman may observe i’tikaaf in any mosque; it does not have to be one in which prayers are held in congregation, because that is not obligatory for women. This is the view of al-Shaafa’i.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen said in al-Sharh al-Mumti’ (6/313):
If a woman observes i’tikaaf in a mosque in which prayers are not held in congregation, there is nothing wrong with that because she does not have to pray in congregation./ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en

3a] Was the adhaan revealed by wahy or was it suggested by a sahaabi?

3a]
You may ask, why did the adhaan start in this fashion, being seen in a dream by two sahaabis then being confirmed by the wahy? Why was it notrevealed directly? The answer is that Allaah decrees whatever He wills, however He wills, may He be glorified and exalted. Perhaps the way it happened was meant todemonstrate the virtue of these two sahaabis and toconfirm the how good this ummah is, because among them are some whose opinions coincide with the wahy and some who had true dreams which confirmed their truthfulness, for the people who have the truest dreams are the truest in speech as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said.
Finally:
The definition of the Sunnah given in the books of the scholars is that it consists of everything that was narrated from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), everything that he “said, did or approved of.”
What is meant by his words and actions is clear.What he approved of refers to when someone did something in front of him and he approved of it– this is also part of the sharee’ah, not because that person did it, but because the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) approved of it. The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) never kept quiet about falsehood andhe never approved of anything false or misguided that was done by others. He would disapprove of it and speakout against it, as he did in the case of the sahaabi Abu Israa’eel, as was narrated by Ibn ‘Abbaas, who said: “Whilst the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was giving a khutbah, he saw a man standing in the sun, and he asked about him. They said, ‘That is Abu Israa’eel.He vowed to stand and not sit down, not to seek shade, not to speak, and to fast.’ He said, ‘Tell him to speak, seek shade and sit down, but let him complete his fast.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6326).
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) approved of Abu Israa’eel’s vow to fast, but he cancelled the rest of his vow and did not approve of it.
So it is clear that the adhaan became part of the religion when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) confirmed what Allaah had shown the two sahaabis in their dreams, and commanded ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Zayd to teach it to Bilaal so that he could call the people toprayer. Hopefully the explanation given above will dispel your confusion and make matters clearer to you. We ask Allaah to grant us and you understanding of Islam. And Allaah knows best./ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en

3] Was the adhaan revealed by wahy or was it suggested by a sahaabi?

3]
I think i once read that the adhan (call to prayer)was suggested to our prophet Muhammed ( ) by another muslim after he said he didnt want to use the bells that the christians used or the rams-head(?) that the jews used to call people to prayer. How does the idea of everything the prophet ordered being an inspiration that is inspiredfit in with this?
I am not trying to be picky here, but am asking purely to aid my understanding.
Praise be to Allaah.
“Adhaan” in Arabic means conveying; in Islam it means announcing that the time (for prayer) has come. It was prescribed during the time of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in Madeenah. According to the hadeeth of ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Zayd ibn Abd Rabbihi, when the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) decided to use a bell eventhough he disliked it because it was like what the Christians used, ‘there appeared to me in a dream a man who was wearing two green garments, in whose hand was a bell. I said, “O slave of Allaah, will you sell thatbell?” he said, “What will you do with it?” I said, “We will call the people toprayer with it.” He said, “Shall I not show you something better than that?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “Say, Allaahu akbar Allaah akbar … (to the endof the adhaan).” When morning came, I went to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and told him what I had seen. He said, “This is a true dream, in sha Allaah. Get up with Bilaal and tell himwhat you have seen, so that he can give the call, because he has a more beautiful voice than you.” So I got up with Bilaal andstarted telling him what I had seen, and he gave thecall to prayer. ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab heard that whilst he was in his house, and he came out, dragging his cloak behind him, saying, “By the One Who sent you with the truth, O Messenger of Allaah, I saw the same as he saw.” The Messenger ofAllaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “To Allaahbe praise.”’ (Narrated by Ahmad, 1588; al-Tirmidhi,174; Abu Dawood, 421, 430; Ibn Maajah, 698).
It is clear from this hadeeth:
That the words of the adhaan came in a dream which was seen by a great sahaabi and approved of by our great Prophet. They were not a suggestion as you mentioned, but a dream, and it is known that dreams are one of the seventy parts of Prophethood, because it was stated in a hadeeth narrated by Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Dreams are one of the seventy parts of Prophethood.” (Narrated by Ahmad, 4449).
Al-Bukhaari narrated a different version: “True dreams are one of the forty-six parts of Prophethood.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari,, 6474; Muslim, 4203, 42005).
The dream here, which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) described as a true dream, came from Allaah and was not a suggestion from a person.So it was a part of Prophethood because it was approved of by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and was described by him as a truedream. If the Prophet had not approved of it, it would not have been considered a true dream and it would not have been a part of Prophethood. The one who judged it to be true was the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and the one who commanded them toact upon it was the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), who received revelation (wahy) from his Lord.
‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) had seen a similar dream. Let us not forget that ‘Umar was one of the Rightly-guided khaleefahs (al-khulafaa’ al-raashidoon), of whom the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “I exhort you to adhere to my sunnah (way) and the sunnah of the rightly-guided khaleefahs. Hold on tight to it with your back teeth.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2600; Ibn Maajah, 43; Ahmad, 16519).
‘Umar’s view frequently coincided with the wahy and divine legislation. ‘Aa’ishah reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say, “Among the nations who came before you there were people who were muhaddathoon (inspired).If there is anyone like this in my ummah, it is ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3282; Muslim, 2398). Ibn Wahb said muhaddathoon means inspired./ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en
