Fathwa - How humans are a burden on the earth

Question
salaam, sir we are from dust and return to dust then the verse of
surah rahman"sanafraghulakum ayyuhassaqalan " mean. The thing twist me
is we are the particles of earth then what are we burdenfor the earth
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.
Ath-Thaqalaan refers to mankind and Jinn. They are called so because
they are carried on the earth. They are like the burden carried on the
animal as the scholars of Tafseer (interpretation ofthe Quran) have
stated. Being created from dust, this does not go against the idea
that humans are a burden on the earth. Although created from dust
which is a delicate substance, the reality of man became different
after he was created, in addition to the fact that dust itself is
heavy.
Ar-Raazi said in his Tafseer: " They are called so because they are
burdens on the surface ofthe earth. Although dust is a delicate
substance so that Aadam would be created from it, it is still aburden…

Fathwa - What Iblees looked like in Paradise is insignificant

Question
Assalmu Alaykum, Was Iblees good looking when he used to live in
paradise with the angels?Are some of the jinns good looking? Jazakum
Allah khayran
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
isHis slave and Messenger.
We apologize for not answering this question as there is no benefit in
researching this matter. It is more appropriate fora Muslim to be
preoccupied with what benefits him in his worldly life and his
Hereafter, and to ask about matters that necessitate action and about
what benefits him in his religion and worldly matters.
Allaah Knows best.

3 Herbal Treatments to remove skin tags that actuallywork

I could go over the typical remove a skin with duct tape or fingernail
polish and they do work but can be painful. Instead, in this article I
am going to focus on herbal remedies to treat skin tags. The upside to
herbal remedies is that they are less invasive than other "fast"
remedies. The downside is that they take a little more time and
consistency in order for them to work....
Tea Trea Oil- Tea tree oil works very well for removing skin tags as
well as moles. In fact, tea tree oil is used on various skin
disorders. To use this all you need is a little tea tree oil and a
cotton ball. Soakthe cotton ball in the oil and apply it directly to
the affected area. Do this once or twice daily for up to 4 weeks or
until the skin tag vanishes.
Castor Oil- Most of you are too young to remember castor oil but this
oil was used on a wide variety of common ailments and can be taken
both internally and externally. The good news is that you will be
using castor oil as an external ointment (I still shudder whenever I
thinkof drinking that stuff). Here is what you will do. Take a little
baking soda and mix it with the castor oil to create a paste. I
suggest you add somecitrus oil as it will stink to high heaven. Apply
it to the affected area and cover with a band-aid. The typical time it
will take is 2-4 weeks before the skin tag vanishes.
Apple Cider Vinegar-Apple cider vinegar works very well for removing
skin tags and the good news is that you canbuy it in a grocery store
for fairly cheap. Just like tea tree oil, you simply dab some of it on
a q-tip or cotton ball and apply it directly to the skin tag. Unlike
the tea tree oil, Apple Cider vinegar may cause a stinging sensation
for a couple minutes after being applied. Typical time until theskin
tag vanishes?....2- ­4 weeks.
Those are just 3 herbal treatments that you can use to remove skin
tags. If you don't mind waiting a couple weeks and can discipline
yourself to treating the skin tag at least once a day, then these will
naturally treat your skin tags from your home.

Theft

Allaah The Almighty wants Muslim societies tolive in peace and
securityso that every member would feel secure about his life, honor
and wealth. Thus, Islam prohibits aggression against people's lives,
honor and property. Moreover, Islam has also made them part of the
five necessary things thatmust be preserved, namely: religion, mind,
life, offspring and wealth.
Theft is a plague that endangers the security ofindividuals and
societies. Therefore, the Sharee ' ah warns Muslims against it and
deters those temptedto steal the properties of others. For instance
the Prophet, , would take an oath from a person who wanted to embrace
Islam that he would not commit serious offences, such as stealing
people's money. The Prophet, , said in this regard to somebody: "Give
me the oath [of allegiance] that you will not associate anything with
Allaah, steal or commit adultery…" [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
Also the Prophet, , stated that a true believer whose faith is firm
would not dare to steal; He said: "An adulterer is not a believer at
the time he commits adultery, a drinker of alcohol is not abeliever at
the time of drinking, and a thief is not a believer at the timeof
stealing …" [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim] One such deterrent is the Hadeeth
which was narrated on the authorityof Abu Hurayrah in which the
Prophet, , said: "Allaah curses the thief who steals an egg, for which
his hand is cut off, or steals a rope, for which his hand is cut off."
[Al-Bukhaari and Muslim] That is to say, he steals an egg first, then
gets accustomed to theft until he steals a thing that is equal to or
more than a quarter of Dinar , which is the lower threshold where he
would deserve his hand to be cut off and the prescribed punishment of
Islam is implemented.
Consider how Islam terrifies Muslims against theft, to the extent that
the Prophet, , cursed the thief! There are also other proofs that show
how evil theft is. One of these proofs is the Hadeeth in which the
Prophet, , told us about some groups that he saw in Hell experiencing
their punishment. He said: "Hellwas displayed to me and you saw me
moving backfor fear that its heat might affect me. I saw a man who was
a criminal dragging his intestines inthe fire; he [was someone who]
would steal [the belongings] of pilgrims with his crook. Ifhe was
noticed he would say, 'It became [accidentally] entangled in my
crook'; but if he was not noticed he would take the [stolen object]."
[Muslim]
Amputation is the Ultimate Deterrent
If these deterrents do notwork and those with weak selves dare to
steal people's property, and their theft is brought before a judge who
proves their guilt according to the criteria that the Sharee'ah has
provided, the guilty handmust be cut off to deter the thief and
preserve people's wealth and security. Allaah The Almighty Says (what
means): } [As for] the thief, the male and the female, amputate their
hands in recompense for what they committed as a deterrent
[punishment]from Allaah. And Allaah Is Exalted in Might and Wise. {
[Quran 5:38]
When such a prescribed punishment was implemented in Muslim lands,
people were secure about their property. Traders and owners of shops
would leave the doors of their shops open and go to perform prayer
without fear of any aggression. However, when Muslim states adopted
man-made laws that theyimported from Europe, crimes that were spread
in non-Muslim countries transferred to them. The security of the
environment became weak when the prescribed punishments of Islam were
abandoned, and it was precisely for this reason that once an act of
stealing was reported to the Prophet, , he would apply the prescribed
punishment without favoritism towards any person, whatever his status
or lineage was. The Prophet, , declared it openly: "If Faatimah, the
daughter of Muhammad, were to steal, I would cuther hand off."
[Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
The Prescribed Punishments are an Expiation
Implementing the prescribed punishment on the deserving offender
breeds security and deters people who are weak and easily tempted. It
also expiates the guilt of such persons and becomes a means of
repentance for him. 'Abdullaah ibn 'Amr ibn Al-'Aas said, "A woman
stole during the life of the Prophet and those from whom she stole
brought her to him. They said, 'O Messenger of Allaah! This woman
stole from us.' Her people said,'We will ransom her for five hundred
dinars.' The Prophet said: 'Cut her hand off.' Her right hand was cut
off. She asked, 'Isthere repentance for me?' The Prophet said, 'Yes,
today you are as free of the sin as you were on the day when your
mother gave birth to you.' Then Allaah The Almighty revealed the verse
(which means): } But whoever repents after his wrongdoing and reforms,
indeed, Allaah will turn to him in forgiveness. Indeed, Allaah is
Forgiving and Merciful. { [Quran 5:39] "
Some of those who hate Islam try to encourage doubt by criticizing the
corporal punishment thatAllaah The Almighty has prescribed. They do so
under the pretext that theft does not deserve such a severe
punishment. Their example in this regard is Abu Al-'Alaa' Al-Ma'arri,
who objected to this punishment, saying,
"How is it that a hand whose value is five hundred dinars of gold, be
cut off when it steals aquarter of a dinar?"
Al-Qaadhi 'Abdul-Wahhaab, a Maaliki scholar, replied, "When it was
honest, it deserved ahigh compensation, but when it proved
treacherous, it became valueless." Imaam As-Sakhaawi also said in
reply to this: "The honor of honesty made that hand precious, whilethe
humiliation of betrayal made it worthless. Thus, ponder on the wisdom
of The Proportioner."
We implore Allaah The Almighty to protect people and lands from every
harm and evil, and to spread safety, security and prosperity among all
Muslim countries. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
