Sacrifices, - Ruling on sacrificing camels other than an’aam animals.

A person lives at the North Pole and wants to offer a sacrifice. Is it
permissible for him to sacrifice a fish?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It is not valid to sacrifice a fish, horse, deer or chicken, because
one of the conditions of sacrifice is that it must be one of the
an'aam animals, which are camels, cattle and sheep of all kinds,
because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"And for every nation We have appointed religious ceremonies, that
they may mention the Name of Allaah over the beast of cattle [an'aam]
that He has given them for food"
[al-Hajj 22:34]
It is not reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) or any of his companions sacrificed any other kind of
animal.
See: Fath al-Qadeer (9/97).
Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo' (8/364-366):
The conditions of a sacrifice being valid include that it should be
one of the an'aam animals, which are camels, cattle and sheep.All
kinds of camels, cattleand sheep, including goats, are acceptable.
Other kinds of animals, such as wild cattle, donkeys etc are not
acceptable, and there is no difference of scholarly opinion on
thispoint, whether male or female of all kinds, thereis no difference
of opinion on any of that inour view.
A cross between a deer and sheep is not acceptable, because it is not
an an'aam animal. End quote.
Ibn Qudaamah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said something similar in
al-Mughni (368).
Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on
him) said in his essay Ahkaam al-Udhiyah wa'l-Zakaah (rulings on
sacrifice and zakaah):
The type (of animal) thatmay be sacrificed is an'aam animals only,
because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"And for every nation We have appointed religious ceremonies, that
they may mention the Name of Allaah over the beast of cattle [an'aam]
that He has given them for food"
[al-Hajj 22:34]
The an'aam animals are camels, cattle, sheep andgoats. This was stated
byIbn Katheer who said: This was the view of al-Hasan, Qataadah and
others. Ibn Jareer said: This is how it is among the Arabs. End quote.
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Do
not sacrifice anything but a musinnah; if one isnot available then
sacrifice a jadh'ah sheep(one that is over a year old)." Narrated by
Muslim (1963). A musinnah is a camel, cow or sheep that is twoyears
old or older. This was the view of the scholars (may Allaah have mercy
on them).
The sacrifice is an act of worship, and it should not be done except
in the manner narrated from the Messenger of Allaah (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him), and it is not narrated that he
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sacrificed anything but a
camel, cow or sheep. End quote.

Islamic Stories, - The young man who learned what cannot be taught

Once upon a time, there lived in Basra an old man whose only
occupation was caring for and loving his only son who was a handsome
young man. The old man invested all his money on his son's education.
The young man went away for a few years and acquired an education at a
well known university under the great scholars of thatage.
The day had arrived for the son to return from his studies and the old
man waited at the door for his son. When the son came and met his
father, the old man looked into his eyes and felt great
disappointment. "What have you learnt my son?" he asked, "I have
learnt everything there was to be learnt, father",he said. "But have
you learnt what cannot be taught?" asked the father. "Go, my son and
learn what cannot be taught", said the old man.
The young man went back to his master and asked him to teach him what
cannot be taught.
"Go away to the mountains with these four hundred sheep and come back
when they are one thousand", said the master.
The young man went to the mountains and became a shepherd. There for
the first time he encountered a silence. He had no one totalk to. The
sheep did not understand his language. In his desperation, he would
talk to them but they would look back at him as if to say he was
stupid. Slowly but surely he began to forget all his worldly
knowledge, his ego, his pride and hebecame quiet like the sheep and
great wisdomand humility came to him.
At the end of two years when the number of sheep had grown to
onethousand, he returned to his master and fell on his feet. "Now you
have learnt what cannot be taught," said the master.
NB. It is interesting to note that the Nabis of Allah Taala (Alayhimus
salaam) at some time in their lives, generally before Nubuwwat, tended
to sheep, and other such animals. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->

Islamic Stories, - Struggles benefit - The man who wanted to help the butterfly

A man found a cocoon ofa butterfly. One day a small opening
appeared.He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it
struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed
to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as
it could, and it could go no further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors
and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.
The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and
small, shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at
any moment, thewings would enlarge and expand to be able tosupport the
body, which would contract in time.
Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life
crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was
able to fly.
What the man, in his kindness and haste, did not understand was
thatthe restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly
to get through the tiny opening were Allah's way of forcing fluid from
the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for
flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If Allah
allowedus to go through our lives without any obstacles, it would
cripple us.
We would not be as strong as what we could have been. We could never "fly"!
I asked for Strength.........
And Allah gave me Difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for Wisdom.........
And Allah gave me Problems to solve.
I asked for Prosperity.........
And Allah gave me Brain and Brawn to work.
I asked for Courage.........
And Allah gave me Danger to overcome.
I asked for Love..........
And Allah gave me Troubled people to help.
I asked for Favours.........
And Allah gave me Opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted ........
I received everything I needed!
"So blessed be Allah, the best of creators!"
Sura The Believer (23) verse 14.

Women Site , - Wants to set herself free from a Fa..

Question
My original Question was about Nikah of a divorcee girl. The situation
is that the boy sat in his room along with two witnesses and the girl
sat in her house. Then, though skype they did ijaab and qubool andthe
two witnesses heard the girl's voice as video chat was not used. 1.
Fatwa no. 2378938 2.
http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=showfatwa&Id=2387246&Option=QuestionIdFrom
previous two answers it is clear to me that this Nikah is not valid as
bride and groom were not at same place. Condition of guardian is not
applicable as it was the second marriage of the Girl. From the answers
it looks like that girl do not need a divorce as it is an invalid
nikah .But girl has to spend a 3 months iddah as marriage was
consummated. As iddah of a woman in an invalid nikah is the same as a
divorcee woman.My Questions are: 1. Does Boy has to give the girl
divorce or not to be free from this invalid Marriage as per two
contrasting saying: Ibn Qudaamah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
If a woman gets married in an invalid manner, it isnot permissible for
someone else to marry her until she is divorced or the marriage is
annulled. End quote fromal-Mughni (7/9). If the marriage was corrupt
(fasid), the judge (qadhi) will separate the couple. If he separates
them before consummation of marriage, no waiting period will be
necessary, even (if the separation was) after the couple remained in
seclusion (khalwa). However, if he separates them after consummation
of marriage, the woman will have to observe the waiting period (idda)
from the time of separation. The ruling is the same in the case of
separation taking place without the Qadhi�s judgment (i.e. the couple
separate themselves).� (al-Fatawa al-Hindiyya, 1/526 2. If Boy does
not get ready to give divorce,can girl take Khula? How to nullify this
nikah as there is no written documentation of nikah. They lived for
just one month.Noone is aware ofit. Jazak Allah
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,
sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.
A marriage that lacks the condition of Wali is Faasid (incorrect)
according to the opinion of the majority of scholars. It is the
opinion that we adopt here in Islamweb and it is substantiated by
Sharee'ah evidence.
Being a divorced woman has no effect in this regard because there is
no difference in stipulating the Wali in the case of a virgin and a
previously-married woman. The previously-married woman differs from
the virgin only in that when she is asked about her marriage, she can
express her opinion verbally that she accepts that suitor or not. As
to the virgin, her silence is sufficient to indicate her acceptance.
The Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, said: " The
previously-married woman expresses herself,while the virgin's
acceptance is by keeping silent. " [Ahmad]
In another narration, he, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, said: " The
previously-married woman expresses herself with her tongue. "
As for the issue you have stated, there is also a disagreement of
scholars about it. However, the opinion we adopt here inIslamweb is
what Ibn Qudaamah stated in Al-Mughni that separation in a Faasid
marriage necessitates divorce or annulling the marriage. Accordingly,
it is not necessary that the young man divorces that woman; as there
is nothing wrong with her trying to convince him to give her Khul'
(divorce at the request of the wife who pays a compensation). If he
refuses to divorce or accept Khul', then she may refer the case to the
Islamic judge or whoeveris acting on his behalf such as the Islamic
centers in the western countries to annul the marriage. This marriage,
even if it is not officially documented, is established by the
testimony of the witnesses. For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa
143529 and 196797 .
What you have stated regarding Ibn Qudaamah 's quote in Al-Mughni and
Nizaam 's quote in Al-Fataawa Al-Hindiyyah imply no contradiction;
rather, they agree with each other. To prove this,it was stated in
Al-Fataawa Al-Hindiyyah:" If the marriage is Faasid, the judge is to
separate between the man and the woman… " Thus, the author only wanted
to explain the effect of that separation on the 'Iddah (waiting
period) and that meaning is clear in his words. - - ▓███▓
