*- 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)./-

Jesus said that he is the way and that noone can come to God except through him. What do Muslims say about that?

Muslims believe that Jesus, on whom be peace, was indeed the way. This
means that he showed the way by which people should approach God. He
expected that people should follow him and imitate him. His early
followers were called followers of the way because, obviously, they
followed Jesus, and Jesus was the way (see Acts 9:2;18:25; 19:9;
19:23; 22:4; 24:14; 24:22). They were also called Christians, which
means 'imitators ofChrist' (see Acts 11 :26). This shows that the
early followers of Jesus copied and imitated him.
Jesus had said that his true followers will hold on to his teachings,
then they will know the truth, and the truth will set them free (see
John 8:31-32). God did reveal His truth in these last times. And true
followers of Jesus will readily acceptthat truth, for they will find
it in agreement with the unadulterated teachings of Jesus. In these
last times God has sent a messenger and declared that anyone whoclaims
to love Him must follow His messenger, on whom be peace. God directs
His messenger as follows:
Say! If you love Allah thenfollow me. Allah will love you and forgive
your sins. Surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful (Qur'an 3:31).
Now this messenger, Muhammad, on whom be peace, has brought God's
final message for all of humankind. If we love God we must follow him.
He brought the truth which Jesus said his true followers will
recognize. The truth sets people free from unreasonable doctrines and
dogmas.
Confusion arises in the minds of some who imagine that Jesus is the
only way for peoples of all times and all places. Clearly, the Old
Testamentprophets directed people to Yahweh, the only God. They showed
therefore the way to Yahweh. In fact, people were calling on the name
of Yahweh since the time of Adam (see Genesis 4:1).
Jesus was the way for his time; now Muhammad is the way. We believe in
both of them, and we worship the one God whom they both worshipped.
These men showed us the way to worship God. Jesus, for example, fell
on his knees and worshipped God (see Luke 22:4 1). He also fell on his
face and worshipped God (see Matthew 26:39). Muhammad too adopted
similar postures of humility in worshipping God. Likewise is the
practice of the true imitators of Jesus and Muhammad, peace be upon
both of them.
Finally, we should recall that Jesus is the way, not the destination.
He spoke of one who is greater than himself (see John 14:28). And he
said that, that one alone is the only true God (see John 17:3).
God has sent numerous prophets and messengers.Each in his time was the
way to God. No one can approach God in a way contrary to the way of
God's messenger. This is why God said that He will call to account
anyone who does not listen to Hisprophet who will speak inHis name
(see Deuteronomy 18:19).

Should he follow the local people with regardto starting and ending the fast?

The sighting of the moon in my country was delayed by two days, and
there is a group of people who follow the general sighting and fast
with Saudi and other neighbouring lands. I started to follow this
group this year and I fasted one day before my country. Do I have to
make up the fast, knowing that the sightinghere was proved after that?
Should I break the fast with my country or when the moon is
sightedanywhere?.
Praise be to Allaah.
In the answer to question no. 12660 we stated that if the Muslim is in
a Muslim country that relieson sighting of the moon to mark the
beginning and end of the month, then he must follow that country, and
it is not permissible for him to differ from it in starting and ending
the fast.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "The
fast is the day when you fast, breaking the fast is the day when you
break the fast, and sacrifice is the day when you offer the
sacrifice." Narrated by AbuDawood (2324) and al-Tirmidhi (697);
classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inSaheeh al-Tirmidhi.
The imams differed with regard to the question of whether, if the moon
is sighted in one place, all the Muslims are obliged to fast, or are
only the nearby countries obliged to fast and not the
distantcountries, or are those whose sighting coincides with that
sighting obligedto fast, and not those whose sighting did not coincide
with it? There areseveral opinions.
The Muslim should follow the scholars of his own country in whichever
of these views they believe to be more correct, based on the evidence
that they have available, and he should not start or end the fast on
his own.
We have quoted the statement of the Council of Senior Scholars on this
issue in the answer to question no. 50487 , in which they said:
… the members of the Council of Senior Scholars think that matters
should be left as they are and that this subject should not be stirred
up. Each Islamic state should have the right to choose whichever
opinion it wishes, based on the suggestions of its own scholars,
because each view has its evidence and proofs.
Please read this statement in full, because it is important.
Based on this, you should follow your country whichrelies on the
sighting of the moon to establish the beginning and end of the month
and the beginning and end of the fast. If you do that, you will have
done well and you are notrequired to make up the fast.
And Allaah knows best.

Is moonsighting essential?

Is it essential for the people to sight the new moon of Ramadaan?.
Praise be to Allaah.
The majority of scholars are of the view that sighting the new moon
ofRamadaan on the first night of the month is a communal obligation,
andif all the people fail to do it then they are sinning. This is also
the Hanafi view.
Some of the fuqaha' were of the view that moon sighting is mustahabb.
It says in Majma' al-Anhaar (1/283): It is a communal obligation for
the people to seek the new moon on the evening of the twenty-ninth of
Sha'baan or Ramadaan, and also of Dhu'l-Qa'dah, and it is obligatory
for the ruler to enjoin the people to do that.
It says in al-Fataawa al-Hindiyyah (1/197): It is obligatory for the
people to seek the new moon on the twenty-ninth of Sha'baan at the
time of sunset, and if they see it they must fast. If it is cloudy
then they must complete the month as thirty days. End quote.
See: Fath al-Qadeer (2/313).
It says in Kashshaaf al-Qinaa' (2/300): It is mustahabb for the
peopleon the night before the thirtieth of Sha'baan to sight the new
moon of Ramadaan.
It is mustahabb to sight the new moon so as to beon the safe side with
regard to fasting and so as to avoid disputes. It was narrated that
'Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to count the days in
Sha'baan morecarefully than at any other time, then he wouldfast when
he sighted (the new moon) of Ramadaan. Narrated by al-Daaraqutniwith a
saheeh isnaad.
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah in a marfoo' report: "Count the days
of Sha'baan for the sake of Ramadaan." Narrated by al-Tirmidhi. End
quote.
This hadeeth was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inSaheeh al-Tirmidhi (678).
It says in Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi: Ibn Hajar (may Allaah have mercy on him)
said: They should strive to count its days accurately, and that is by
means of watching the waxing and waning of themoon, so that they will
becertain of when to expectthe new moon of Ramadaan and will not miss
any of it. End quote.
In al-Mawsoo'ah al-Fiqhiyyah (22/23) it says: Sighting the new moon is
something that isdecreed by the fact that some acts of worship are
connected to specific times. It is prescribed for the Muslims to
strive in seeking it and it is more important on the night before the
thirtieth of Sha'baan, in order to find out whether Ramadaan has
begun, and on the night before the thirtieth of Ramadaan in order to
find out whether the month has ended and Shawwaal has begun, andon the
night before the thirtieth of Dhu'l-Qa'dah to find out if Dhu'l-Hijjah
has begun. These three months have to do with two of the pillars of
Islam,namely fasting and Hajj, and the setting of the dates for 'Eid
al-Fitr and 'Eid al-Adha.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) encouraged
seeking the sighting of the moon. It was narratedthat Abu Hurayrah
said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Fast when you see it and break the fast when you see it, and if it is
too cloudy then complete the number (of days) of Sha'baan as thirty."
And it was narrated from 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be pleased
with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah
be upon him) said: "The month is twenty-nine days, so do not fast
until you see it, and if it is cloudy then complete the month as
thirty days." Thefirst hadeeth enjoins fasting the month of Ramadaan
when its new moon is sighted or when the month of Sha'baan is
completed with thirty days, and it enjoins ending the fast when the
new moon of Shawwaal issighted, or when Ramadaan is completed with
thirty days. The second hadeeth forbids fasting Ramadaan before the
new moon is sighted or before Sha'baan has been completed if it is
cloudy.
And there is a hadeeth narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) in which he enjoined paying attentionto the new
moon of Sha'baan because of Ramadaan. He said: "Count the days of
Sha'baan carefully for the sake of Ramadaan." This hadeeth shows the
importance of paying attention to the month of Sha'baan in order to
workout when Ramadaan starts. It was narrated from 'Aa'ishah (may
Allaah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) used to count the days in Sha'baan more carefully
than at any other time, then he would fast when he sighted (the new
moon) of Ramadaan, and if it was cloudy he would count thirty days and
then fast.
The commentators said: i.e., he would make sure to count the days of
Sha'baan carefully in order to begin the fast of Ramadaan at the right
time.
