*- 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)./-

General hadeeths, Dought & Clear, - * Is it Sunnah to always make naafil prayers brief?
























ShareShare












- PUBLISHERNajimudeeN M. MD, IRI (Managing Director, Islamic Research Institution)
I want to ask about naafil (supererogatory) prayers: is it permissible or obligatory to make them brief like the two rak‘ahs of Fajr?
Praise be to Allah
Naafil prayers may be divided into three categories with regard to whether it is prescribed to make them brief or not:
The first category is naafil prayers in which it is Sunnah to make them brief. These include:
· The two rak‘ahs before Fajr prayer
Al-Bukhaari (1165) narrated that ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to make brief the two rak‘ahs before Fajr prayer, to the extent that I would say: Did he recite the Mother of the Book (Umm al-Kitaab– i.e., Soorat al-Faatihah)?
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Sunnah with regard to the Sunnah prayer of Fajr is to make it brief, and to recite in the first rak‘ah “Qul ya ayyuha’l-kaafiroon (Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) to these Mushrikoon and Kafiroon): O Al-Kafiroon (disbelievers))” [Soorat al-Kaafiroon 109]and in the second rak‘ah“Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad (Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): He is Allah, (the) One)” [Soorat al-Ikhlaas 112], or to recite in the first rak‘ah“Say (O Muslims), ‘We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us…” [al-Baqarah 2:136]and in the second rak‘ah“Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you…” [Aal ‘Imraan 3:64].
Bowing (rukoo‘) should also be made brief; so it should be limited to the minimum that is required in order to make it proper, which means saying three times “Subhaana rabbiy al-‘azeem (Glory be to my Lord the Almighty)”. Prostration (sujood) should be made similarly brief, and the tashahhud should also not be made lengthy. This is the Sunnah of the Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).
End quote fromLiqa’ al-Baab al-Maftooh.
· Tahiyyat al-masjid (two rak‘ahs to “greet the mosque” upon entering), if the imam is speaking (on Friday)
Muslim (875) narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Sulayk al-Ghatafaani came on a Friday when the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was delivering the khutbah, and sat down. He (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to him: “O Sulayk, get up and pray two rak‘ahs, and make them brief.” Then he said: “If one of you comes on a Friday and the imam is delivering the khutbah, let him pray two rak‘ahs and make them brief.”
· Starting voluntary night prayers with two brief rak‘ahs
Abu Dawood (1323) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “If one of you gets up to pray at night, let him pray two brief rak‘ahs.” And that was proven in his actions (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), as was narrated inSaheeh Muslim, in the hadith of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him).
· That also includes the two rak‘ahs following tawaaf; what is prescribed in this case is to recite briefly, similar to the recitation in the Sunnah prayers of Fajr and Maghrib
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
It should be noted that what is prescribed in the case of these two rak‘ahs is to make them brief, and to recite in them “Qul ya ayyuha’l-kaafiroon (Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) to these Mushrikoon and Kafiroon): O Al-Kafiroon (disbelievers))” [Soorat al-Kaafiroon 109]and“Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad (Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): He is Allah, (the) One)” [Soorat al-Ikhlaas 112]. And there is no du‘aa’ to be recited before or after them.
End quote fromMajmoo‘ Fataawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen(24/463-464)
The second category is naafil prayers in which it is Sunnah to make them lengthy, such as the eclipse prayer and qiyaam al-layl
It is proven that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) made the recitation lengthy in the eclipse prayer. Al-Bukhaari (5197) and Muslim (907) narrated that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with them) said: The sun was eclipsed at the time of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), and the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) prayed and the people with him. He stood for a long time, almost as long as it takes to recite Soorat al-Baqarah
Shaykh al-Mubaarakfoori (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The hadith indicates that it is prescribed to make the standing lengthy by reciting a long soorah in the eclipse prayer, and this is mustahabb according to all scholars.
End quote fromMir‘aat al-Mafaateeh Sharh Mishkaat al-Masaabeeh(5/136)
With regard to the description of the prayer of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) at night, ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) described it in two words: long and beautiful. She (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not pray more, in Ramadaan or at any other time, than eleven rak‘ahs. He would pray four, and do not ask how beautiful and long they were. Then he would pray four, and do not ask how beautiful and long they were. Then he would pray three.
Narrated by Muslim (738).
An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: In this hadith – along with the hadiths that are mentioned after it – we see, concerning making the recitation and standing lengthy, evidence to support the view of ash-Shaafa‘i and others who said that making the standing lengthy is better than doing a lot of bowing and prostrating.
End quote fromSharh Saheeh Muslimby an-Nawawi.
The third category is naafil prayers concerning which there is no report from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) to say whether he made them brief or lengthy
With regard to this type of naafil prayers, there is a difference of opinion among the scholars: is it better to make the standing lengthy, or is it better to do a lot of bowing and prostrating?
The Hanbalis (may Allah have mercy on them) are of the view that doing a lot of prostration and bowing is better than making the standing lengthy.
Al-Bahooti (may Allah have mercy on him) said: With regard to that in which it is narrated that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) made it brief, such as the two rak‘ahs before Fajr, the two rak‘ahs at the beginning of qiyaam al-layl, or tahiyyat al-masjid if one enters when the imam is delivering the khutbah on Friday; or it is narrated that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) made them lengthy, such as the eclipse prayer, then what is preferable is to follow him, because Allah, may He be exalted, says (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him):“Indeed in the Messenger of Allah (Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)) you have a good example to follow” [al-Ahzaab 33:31]. Apart from that – i.e., apart from cases in which it was narrated from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he made the prayers brief or lengthy – doing a lot of bowing and prostrating is better than making the standing lengthy, because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The closest that a person is to his Lord is when he is prostrating.” And it was narrated that Thawbaan said: I heard the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: “You should prostrate a great deal, for you will never prostrate to Allah once but He will raise you one degree in status thereby and erase one sin from you thereby.” … And because prostration in and of itself is better and of more significance, based on the fact that it is obligatory in both obligatory and supererogatory prayers, and it is not permissible to prostrate under any circumstances to any but Allah, may He be exalted. In contrast, standing is waived in supererogatory prayers, and it is permissible in situations other than prayer, such as standing up out of respect for one’s parents, teachers, and the leader of the people. And doing a lot of that which is of greater significance and better is more appropriate.
End quote fromKashshaaf al-Qinaa‘(1/441)
The Shaafa‘is (may Allah have mercy on them) are of the view that making the standing lengthy is better than doing a lot of prostration and bowing.
An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Making the standing lengthy, in our view, is better than making the prostration, bowing and so on lengthy, and it is better than doing a lot of rak‘ahs.
End quote from al-Majmoo‘ (3/537)
Some of the scholars are of the view that there should be a differentiation between prayers offered at night and prayers offered during the day.
Ash-Shawkaani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Ishaaq ibn Raahawayh said: With regard to (prayers) during the day, doing a lot of bowing and prostration is better; with regard to (prayers) during the night, making the standing lengthy is better, unless a man has a juz’ that he recites at night, in which case doing a lot of bowing and prostrating is better, because he can recite his juz’ and earn reward by bowing and prostrating.
Ibn ‘Adiyy said: Ishaaq only said this because they described the prayers of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) at night as involving lengthy standing, and his prayers during the day were not described as being lengthy in the way that his prayers at night were described.
End quote fromNayl al-Awtaar(3/91)
Conclusion:
With regard to that concerning which it is narrated from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he made it brief in word or deed, the Sunnah is to make it brief. With regard to naafil prayers concerning which it is narrated that he made it lengthy, the Sunnah is to make it lengthy. With regard to naafil (supererogatory) prayers other than that, the scholars differed as to whether it is better to make the standing lengthy or to do a lot of bowing and prostration.
In such cases it may be said: Do that which is better for you and makes you more able to focus properly. If making the standing lengthy is better and makes you more able to focus properly, then you should do that. If doing a lot of prostration is better, then you should do that. It was narrated from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he said: “And when one of you prays alone, let him pray as he likes.” Narrated by Muslim (467)
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said. Commenting on the phrase, “See what is better for you and makes you more able to focus properly, and do that”:
the person who is wise and guided will know how he should perform acts of worship that are not obligatory; he can compare and weigh up which interests may be served by different ways, and do that which is most appropriate for him.

General hadeeths, Dought & Clear, - * False, fabricated hadeeth stating that the believer will prostrate to his wife in Paradise because of her beauty!












There is a hadeeth that I heard but I do not know how sound it is. In fact I have not found the hadeeth in written form anywhere, and I do not know if it exists at all. The one who said it did not mention any source. The hadeeth says something to the effect that when a man enters upon his wife in paradise he will be dazzled by her beauty, and will think that she is Allah, so he will prostrate to her. She will say to him: What are you doing? He will say: You are very beautiful and I thought that you were Allah. She will say: Rather I am your wife from the (former) world. Is this hadeeth sound or not?
Praise be to Allah
This is not a hadeeth; rather these are false and reprehensible words that are distasteful offensive to the listener. The believers will recognise their Lord on the Day of Resurrection and will have the utmost joy in Paradise of gazing upon Him, as is the belief of Ahl as-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa‘ah. Please see the answer to question no. 14525
Al-Bukhaari (806) and Muslim (182) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the people said: O Messenger of Allah, will we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection? He said: “Do you have any trouble seeing the moon clearly on the night when it is full when there are no clouds?” They said: No, O Messenger of Allah. He said: “Do you have any trouble seeing the sun clearly at noon when there are no clouds?” They said: No. He said: “You will see Him in like manner. The people will be gathered on the Day of Resurrection, then He will say: ‘Whoever used to worship anything, let him follow it.’ So some of them will follow the sun, some will follow the moon, some will follow the false gods, and this ummah will remain, including its hypocrites. Then Allah will come to them and will say: ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say: ‘We will stay here until our Lord comes, and when our Lord comes, we will recognize Him.’ Allah will come to them and will say: ‘I am your Lord,’ and they will say, ‘You are our Lord.’ He will call them, and the siraat will be set up over Hell, and I will be the first of the Messengers to cross it with my ummah. On that day, no one but the Messengers will speak, and the prayer of the Messengers will be: ‘O Allah, grant safety, grant safety!’”
According to another version: “There will remain this ummah, including its hypocrites. Then Allah will come in a form other than the form which they know, and He will say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say: ‘We seek refuge in Allah from you. We will stay here until our Lord comes, and when our Lord comes, we will recognize Him.’ Then Allah will come to them in the form which they know, and will say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are our Lord,’ and they will follow Him.”
Muslim narrated from Suhayb, that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “When the people of Paradise have entered Paradise, Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, will say: ‘Do you want anything more?’ They will say: ‘Have You not brightened our faces and admitted us to Paradise and saved us from the Fire?’ Then He will remove the veil, and they will not be given anything that is more dear to them than gazing upon their Lord (may He be glorified and exalted).”
In these reports we see that the believers will see their Lord and will recognise Him on the Day of Resurrection and after they enter Paradise. So how can it be said that when the believer sees his wife among the hoor al-‘iyn, he will prostrate to her, thinking that she is Allah?!
“Glory be to You (O Allah) this is a great lie” [an-Noor 24:16].
And Allah knows best.

Plural marriage and fair treatment of co-wives, Dought & clear, - * Wife asking husband’s permission to fast when he has another wife











Is it obligatory for a wife to ask her husband’s permission to fast if that is on the other wife’s day?
Praise be to Allaah.
If the husband is present with her then she should not fast without his permission, because he may need her. But if he is with his other wife and it is the other wife’s day, then it seems that it is o.k. for her to fast with or without his permission.
Shaykh Muhammad Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen, Majallat al-Da’wah, issue no. 1823, p. 54.
