*- 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)./-

Quraanic Exegesis, Dought&clear, - * Evil is part of the creation of Allaah and not attributing it to Allaah is part of proper verbal etiquette











Here is the translation of the Ayahs: 4:78 - "Wherever you may be, death will overtake you even if you are in fortified towers. If a good happens to them, they say:'This is from Allah," but if an evil befalls them, they say:'This is from you(O Muhammad).' Say:'All are from Allah,' so what (is wrong with) these people that they do not seem to understand any word? " 4:79 - "Whatever reaches to you of good, is from Allah, but whatever befalls you of evil, is from yourself. Allah has sent you (Muhammad) for mankind as a messenger, and Allah is Sufficient as a Witness." Is evil from ourselves or from Allah. Non-Muslims view this as a contradiction in the Qur'an but we all know that the Qur'an is free from contradictions. Can you please explain this?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Understanding this aayah is easy for the one whom Allaah enables to understand it. It is one of the unambiguous aayahs in the clear Book of Allaah, and there is no contradiction in it, except in the minds of some of the haters, who are aided by their ignorance of Arabic and of the meanings of the Holy Qur’aan, so they think that the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):“but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself” [al-Nisa’ 4:79]mean that calamities, which are referred to here as “evil”, are created by man himself. This is obvious ignorance which no one falls into but someone who has no knowledge of the Arabic language, or an Arabic-speaker who is misled and overwhelmed by his whims and desires. That is because the prepositionmin(from) here, in the phrasemin nafsika(“from yourself”), refers to the cause, i.e., it is because of you yourself, O man, because of your disobedience and your going against the command of Allaah, that calamities befall you, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):“And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned. And He pardons much” [al-Shoora 42:30].
Al-Haafiz Ibn Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) says: The words“And if some good reaches them” [al-Nisa’ 4:78]mean: abundance and provision, of fruits, crops, children and the like. This is the meaning of the words of Ibn ‘Abbaas, Abu’l-‘Aaliyah and al-Saddi.
“they say, ‘This is from Allaah,’ but if some evil befalls them” [al-Nisa’ 4:78], i.e., drought, famine, lack of fruits and crops, or death of children, and so on – as Abu’l-‘Aaliyah and al-Saddi said.
“they say, ‘This is from you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)’”, i.e., because of you, and because of our following you and following your religion, as Allaah said concerning the people of Pharaoh (interpretation of the meaning):
“But whenever good came to them, they said: ‘Ours is this.’ And if evil afflicted them, they ascribed it to evil omens connected with Moosa (Moses) and those with him”
[al-A’raaf 7:131]
and as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And among mankind is he who worships Allaah as it were upon the edge (i.e. in doubt): if good befalls him, he is content therewith; but if a trial befalls him he turns back on his face (i.e. reverts to disbelief after embracing Islam). He loses both this world and the Hereafter”
[al-Hajj 22:11]
“Say: ‘All things are from Allaah’” [al-Nisa’ 4:78], i.e., everything happens by the will and decree of Allaah, which applies to the righteous and evildoer, to the believer and disbeliever, alike. ‘Ali ibn Abi Talhah said, narrating from Ibn ‘Abbaas:“Say: ‘All things are from Allaah”i.e., both good and bad. Al-Hasan al-Basri said something similar.
Then Allaah said, addressing the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), but the message is to mankind, that the answer to this question is:“Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allaah”, i.e., by the grace, bounty, kindness and mercy of Allaah.
“but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself”i.e., from you, and because of your own actions, as Allaah says elsewhere (interpretation of the meaning):“And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned. And He pardons much” [al-Shoora 42:30]. Al-Saddi, al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Jurayj and Ibn Zayd said:“is from yourself”means, because of your sins.
Qataadah said:“Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allaah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself”[means] it is a punishment, O son of Adam, for your sins. And he said: We are told that the Prophet of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say: “No man is scratched by a thorn, or stumbles, or has a twitching in a vein, except for a sin, and what Allaah forgives is greater.”
This which was narrated by Qataadah in a mursal report was narrated in a muttasil report [i.e., with a complete isnaad] inal-Saheeh: “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, no worry or grief or hardship befalls a believer, not even a thorn that pricks him, but Allaah will expiate some of his sins thereby.” End quote.Tafseer al-Qur’aan il ‘Azeem(2/361-363).
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) says:
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):“Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allaah,” [al-Nisa’ 4:79], i.e., what reaches you of victory, provision and well being, comes from Allaah, a blessing that He has bestowed upon you; even if it is because of your good deeds, He is the One Who has guided you, helped you, made things easy for you, blessed you with faith and made it attractive to you, and has made disbelief, evil and sin hateful to you.
At the end of the saheeh hadeeth qudsi that was narrated by Abu Dharr from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), he tells us that his Lord, may He be blessed and exalted, said: “O My slaves, they are merely your actions which I am recording for you, then I will requite you for them. Whoever finds it to be good, let him praise Allaah, and whoever finds it to be otherwise, let him blame no one but himself.” According to the saheeh hadeeth: “The best prayer for forgiveness is to say: ‘Allaahumma anta rabbiy laa ilaaha illa anta, khalaqtani wa ana ‘abduka wa ana ‘ala ‘ahdika wa wa’dika ma astata’tu, a’oodhu bika min sharri ma sana’tu aboo’u laka bi ni’matika ‘alayya wa aboo’u laka bi dhanbi, faghfir li fa innahu laa yaghfir ul-dhunooba illa anta(O Allaah, You are my Lord and I am Your slave, You have created me and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise (to You) as much as I am able. I seek refuge with You from the evil of that which I have done. I acknowledge before You all the blessings You have bestowed upon me and I confess to You my sin. Forgive me for there is no one who forgives sin except You).’ Whoever says this during the day believing in it with certainty and dies that day before evening comes, will be one of the people of Paradise, and whoever says it at night believing in it with certainty and dies before morning comes will be one of the people of Paradise.”
Then Allaah says:“but whatever of evil befalls you”, such as humiliation, fear and defeat, such as what befell you on the day of Uhud,“is from yourself”, i.e., because of your sins and errors, even though that is already decreed and ordained for you, because the divine decree is not a justification for anyone, and will not be accepted by against Allaah, or by people. If it were permissible for anyone to refer to the divine decree to justify what he does of bad deeds, then no wrongdoer would be punished, no mushrik would be fought, no hadd punishment would be carried out, and no one would refrain from wronging anyone else. This would cause a great deal of mischief and corruption in both religious and worldly affairs, which is something that no one can dispute, whether on a rational basis or on a shar’i basis. End quote.
Majmoo’ al-Fataawa(8/113-114)
Al-‘Allaamah al-Sa’di (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Allaah tells us of those who do not know, who turn away from that which the Messengers brought, who are opposed to them: that if something good comes to them, i.e., abundance, a lot of wealth, many children, good health, they say:“This is from Allaah”, but if something bad comes to them, i.e., drought, famine, poverty, sickness, death of children and loved ones, they say:“This is from you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)”, i.e., because of what you have brought to us, O Muhammad; they regard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) as a bad omen as others like them regarded the Messengers of Allaah as bad omens, as Allaah tells us that the people of Pharaoh said to Moosa:
“But whenever good came to them, they said: ‘Ours is this.’ And if evil afflicted them, they ascribed it to evil omens connected with Moosa (Moses) and those with him”
[al-A’raaf 7:131]
And the people of Saalih said:
“They said: ‘We augur ill omen from you and those with you’”
[al-Naml 27:47]
And the people mentioned in Soorat Yaa-Seen said to their Messengers:
“They (people) said: ‘For us, we see an evil omen from you; if you cease not, we will surely stone you…’”
[Yaa-Seen 36:18].
Just as the people of kufr think alike, so too their words and deeds are similar. This applies to everyone who attributes the occurrence of bad things or the loss of good things to what the Messengers brought or to part of it; that comes under this stern criticism.
Allaah says in response to them:“Say: ‘All things”, good and bad,“are from Allaah”, i.e., by His will and decree and creation.
Then Allaah says:“Whatever of good reaches you”, i.e., in your religious and worldly affairs,“is from Allaah”who is the One Who bestows them and makes it easy to attain them by facilitating their means.
“but whatever of evil befalls you”, in your religious and worldly affairs,“is from yourself”, i.e., because of your sins and what you have earned, and what Allaah forgives is greater.
Allaah has opened to His slaves the gates of His kindness and has bid them enter by His grace and bounty. He has told them that sins prevent His bounty, so if a person does them he should not blame anyone but himself, because he is the one who has prevented the grace and bounty of Allaah from reaching him.
End quote.Tafseer al-Kareem al-Rahmaan(p. 188).
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked:
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):“And if some good reaches them, they say, ‘This is from Allaah,’ but if some evil befalls them, they say, ‘This is from you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم).’ Say: ‘All things are from Allaah’” [al-Nisa’ 4:78], then in the next verse He says (interpretation of the meaning):“Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allaah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself”. How can we reconcile between them?
He replied:
They may be reconciled by noting that the first verse refers to the decree of Allaah, i.e., it is from Allah; He is the one who decrees it. The second verse refers to the cause i.e., whatever of evil befalls you, you are the cause, and the One Who decrees evil and decrees the punishment for it is Allaah. End quote.

story.gif
Is there any report in the Sunnah about it being obligatory to cover the head when going to the toilet, for women or men?
Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
It was narrated by al-Bayhaqi in hisSunan(464) and Abu Nu‘aym inal-Hilyah(2/182) that ‘Aa’ishah said: When the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) went to the toilet, he would cover his head, and when he was intimate with his wife he would cover his head.
Its isnaad is da‘eef. See:ad-Da‘eefah(4192)
Al-Bayhaqi (465) narrated that Habeeb ibn Saalih said: When the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) went to the toilet, he would put on his shoes and cover his head.
This is mursal. It was classed as da‘eef by Shaykh al-Albaani inDa‘eef al-Jaami‘(4393).
There is no saheeh report from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) about this topic at all.
Secondly:
It was proven that this was a practice of some of the early generation.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Urwah, from his father, that Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq said, when he was addressing the people: O Muslims, feel shy before Allah, for by the One in Whose hand is my soul, I keep my head covered when I go to relieve myself in the open, out of shyness before my Lord.
Narrated by Ibn al-Mubaarak inaz-Zuhd(1/107); Ibn Abi Shaybah inal-Musannaf(1/105). Its isnaad is saheeh.
See:al-‘Ilalby ad-Daaraqutni (1/186)
Al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) said inas-Sunan(1/96):
With regard to covering the head when going to the toilet, there was a report narrated from Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq, and it is soundly narrated from him.
Ibn Abi Shaybah said (1/106): Ibn ‘Uyaynah told us, from Ibn Tawoos who said: My father instructed me, when I went to the toilet, to cover my head. I said: Why did he instruct you to do that? He said: I do not know.
Thirdly:
Some of the fuqaha’ are of the view that covering the head is part of good manners and is something recommended (mustahabb).
An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said inal-Majmoo‘(2/93):
Imam al-Haramayn, al-Ghazaali, al-Baghawi and others said: It is recommended not to enter the toilet bare-headed. End quote.
Al-Mirdaawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said inal-Insaaf(1/97):
It is mustahabb to cover the head when going to the toilet. This was mentioned by a number of our companions. End quote.
It says inal-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah(22/5):
It is recommended not to enter the toilet with the head uncovered, because of a report which says that when the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) entered the toilet, he would put on his shoes and cover his head. End quote.
Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about the ruling on entering the bathroom with the head uncovered.
He replied:
There is nothing wrong with entering the bathroom with the head uncovered, but the fuqaha’ regarded it as mustahabb to cover the head when entering the toilet.
End quote fromMajmoo‘ Fataawa wa Rasaa’il Ibn ‘Uthaymeen(11/68).
It may be said, and Allah knows best, that this comes under the heading of good manners and good conduct when relieving oneself in a place that is open, but not in places where one is screened, as in the case of toilets and washrooms nowadays.
Whatever the case:
The matter is as stated above: there is no saheeh hadith from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). Those of the early generations who did that only did it because of a strong degree of modesty and self-concealment in this situation.
Something similar was narrated by Ibn Abi Shaybah (1/106) with a saheeh isnaad from Abu Moosa, who said: I do ghusl in a dark room, and I turn my back when I take off my clothes, out of shyness before my Lord.
If anyone does that, following the example of those among the early generations who did it, then it is good manners and praiseworthy, in sha Allah, so long as he keeps in mind the attitude mentioned above, namely great shyness before Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and observing proper etiquette before Him.
But if a person does not do that, there is no blame on him and he is not doing anything makrooh, in sha Allah.
With regard to the view that it is obligatory to cover the head when going to the toilet, none of the Muslim scholars said that as far as we know.
For more information on the etiquette of relieving oneself.
And Allah knows best.

Da'eef (weak) hadeeths, Dought & clear, - * There is no hadeeth which says that having an easy pregnancy is a sign of special mercy from Allah











im 8 months pregnant & Alhamdulillah my husband is very caring and humble towards me now. i have read hadiths that if a husband is pleasing and humble during pregnancy she will get much reward ...is it so?
Also i have read that Aisha R.A. said Allahs mercy will be more on a women by following 3 signs 1. her demand 2. her engagement 3. her pregnancy will be made easy...is it so?
But i am sleepless,restless, also due to sugar daily i have to inject insulins due to which i am also suffering from itches, severe leg pain, white discharge problem due to which after every compulsory prayer again i have to repeat wudoo for sunnath prayers ....now i am fed up and decided not to have any child hereafter...does it mean I am not good or i am not completely under Allahs mercy...
Praise be to Allah.
We have not found anything in the saheeh Sunnah or the reports from the Sahaabah and Taabi‘een to indicate that an easy pregnancy is one of the signs of special mercy from Allah, may He be exalted, to a woman. That is one of the matters of the unseen regarding which we must adhere to what is mentioned in the texts and reports, and not attribute any such thing to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) unless we are certain of it and that it is saheeh. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And follow not (O man i.e., say not, or do not or witness not, etc.) that of which you have no knowledge (e.g. ones saying: "I have seen," while in fact he has not seen, or "I have heard," while he has not heard). Verily! The hearing, and the sight, and the heart, of each of those you will be questioned (by Allah)”
[al-Isra’ 17:36].
Moreover, the mercy of Allah, may He be exalted, may be in wellbeing, but it may also be in trials and tests, according to the knowledge and wisdom of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. It was narrated from Muhammad ibn Khaalid, from his father, from his grandfather – who was a companion of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) – that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: “If a certain status has previously been decreed by Allah for a person, and he does not attain it by his deeds, Allah afflicts him in his body or wealth or children.”
Narrated by Abu Dawood inas-Sunan, no. 3090. Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani. This hadeeth indicates that if a woman is tested with difficulty and hardship in pregnancy, that may be a sign of Allah’s mercy towards the woman and of what she will have with Allah of reward and great status, especially if we remember the hadeeth of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in which he said: “There is no calamity that befalls a Muslim but he is expiated thereby, even a thorn that pricks him.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5640) and Muslim (2572).
Thus it is clear that whoever wants to attain the mercy of Allah, may He be exalted, let him be patient at the time of calamity and let him be grateful at the time of blessing, for in that case he will be in a very good state and will not be distracted by thinking about what Allah, may He be exalted, intends by this calamity, for that is one of the matters of the unseen of which he has no knowledge, but by being grateful and showing patience, he will attain the mercy and good pleasure of Allah.
Sufyaan ath-Thawri (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
There is no one who understands Islam but he regards calamity as a blessing, and ease as a calamity.
End quote fromHilyat al-Awliya’(7/55).
One of the earlier generations said:
Be content with Allah in all that He does to you, for He does not withhold from you except in order to give you, and He does not put you through trials except in order to bring about your well-being, and He does not cause you to be sick except in order to heal you, and He does not cause you to die except in order to bring you back to life. So beware of failing to be content with Him even for a moment, lest you be deprived of mercy.
End quote fromMadaarij as-Saalikeen, 2/216
But if there is some symptom of illness that prevents you from having another child, that does not indicate that you are a bad woman or that you have been cast away from the mercy of Allah – Allah forbid. Rather that is a common occurrence and there is no blame on you.“and [Allah] has not laid upon you in religion any hardship”[al-Hajj 22:78]. But we also think that the difficulty and hardship that you are facing at present mean that this is not an appropriate time to take such a decision. How many women have thought in such situations the same as you are thinking now, but when Allah made the birth easy for her and she had rested for a while after that hardship, she once again began to long for pregnancy and childbirth, and to raise little ones. Perhaps if Allah makes the birth easy for you – in sha Allah – and you rest for a while after that, maybe Allah will help you with another pregnancy. But it is too early to make such a decision now.
And Allah knows best.
