Fathwa, - Assigning a supplication to every daily obligatory prayer

Question
Assalamu 'alaikum I read in a book about specific dua after each
prayer of fajr,dhuhr,asr etc.,but I havenot come across such dua
anywhere,so please tell me if it is correct to say these duas after
each prayer and if the Prophet)peace be upon him( said these.If we do
what was not taught by the Prophet,it would be rejected,right?pls
answer.May Allah reward 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
Muhammadis His slave and Messenger.
There is nothing reported from the Prophetwith this meaning, and it is
not permissible to say these supplications as they are included in the
secondary innovations )i.e. the innovations where the basis of worship
is permitted but there is some change with regard to its reason, type,
amount, manner, time and place(, but if the meaning of these
supplications is good, and a praying person says them sometimes
without believing that they are a Sunnah, then this is permissible
because the supplication after performing obligatory prayers is, in
principle, among the legislated matters.
Allah Knows best.

Fathwa, - A brother recently said to me "You are lying", but I was not lying. Have I been wrong

Question:
A brother recently said to me "You are lying", but I was not lying.
Have I been wronged? Or is this solely between him and Allah?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
May Allah's peace and blessings be upon His Messenger Muhammad, his
folk, companions, and followers
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
This would really depend on the situation and circumstances. He may
have reason to have thought you were in error; or he may have made an
error in judgment; or he may simply be wrong. In any case, we don't
impute ill-intent in the actions of other, even when these are against
us. Rather, we try to understand their actions in the best light, and
to be fair. Allah Most High says,
"O you who believe! Be steadfast witnesses for Allah in fairness, and
let not enmity of any people lead you not to act justly. Deal justly,
that is nearer to piety. Be pious of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Informed
of what you do." [Qur'an, 5.8]
In terms of dealing with the brother in question, it would be best to
sit down and discuss the matter with him, in a spirit of brotherhood,
and in order to come to understanding--not to argue your point and
seek "your" rights, but rather to mend relations and move on. Allah
Most High says,
"The believers are but brethren, so mend relationships between your
brethren. Be pious of Allah, that you may obtain mercy." [Qur'an,
49.10]
And Allah alone gives success.

Fathwa, - Giving someone of the opposite sex a lift at night

Question:
Is it permissible to be in a car with a non-mahram woman when there is
another man there also (who is not her mahram)? Is this khalwa? Is it
permissible to give a non-mahram a lift in a car at night, for safety
reasons, when there is no-one else available to travel in the car so
that we are not alone? If the non-mahram sits in the back, then does
this count as a barrier between the two?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
During the day, in public areas, it would not be in itself a khalwa
situation for a man and woman to be in a car together. However, it is
necessary to avoid this--because of the likely fitna--particularly
when it is repeated, or when one fears anything improper (even
improper thoughts or conversations).
At night, it would not be permitted. When one considers alternatives,
there are almost always alternatives--such as having a third person in
the car.

Fathwa, - Could you tell me if one has to observe the hijab during labor? Does the same ruling apply ifthe do

Question:
Could you tell me if one has to observe the hijab during labor? Does
the same ruling apply if the doctor is a woman?
Answer:
Wa'alaikum assalaamu warahmatu Allah,
Firstly, a woman is required to be treated by a female Muslim, doctor,
if unavailable, then a female non-Muslim, then a male Muslim, then
finally, she may be treated by a non-Muslim male doctor. Therefore, if
the doctor is a Muslim woman, the woman need not observe the hijiab or
headcovering during labor, because the nakedness between Muslim women
in general (i.e. not specific to labor) is from between the navel and
knee.
A non-Muslim woman, in the Hanafi madhab is like a man, and therefore,
one would cover in front of her what she would cover in front of a man
- everything except face, hands and feet, and of course - that which
must necessarily be exposed during labor.
Nonetheless, there are opinions in the other school(s) that a
non-Muslim woman is like a Muslim woman which would not require one to
observe the headcovering in front of her. The latter indicates a
lesser degree of severity/emphasis on covering in front of non-Muslim
woman than the emphasis when the person is a man.
One should try to practice that which contains the highest etiquette
while keeping in mind that Allah does not try us with what is more
than we can bear, and that differences between the scholars are a
mercy when used scrupulously and with wisdom.
And Allah knows best.
