The fast does not break.

Yes, the fast is valid.

The royalty which these organizations charge is haraam ribaa.

In addition to breaking the fast, this unfortunate person who indulges in this abomination is mal-oon (cursed) according to the Hadith of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Qadha of the fast is incumbent.

For assisting poor and needy relatives even with Zakaat, there is a double reward. One reward for paying one’s Zakaat, and another reward for aiding a family member. A person may give his own Zakaat to any relative besides his roots and branches, i.e. besides his parents, grandparents, children and grand children.

Even if we have to assume for a moment that there are benefits in these radio stations, you will have to concede that there are benefits in pork, liquor and gambling as well. But such benefits do not make evil and filth halaal, Similarly, the smattering of benefit which you have discerned in these nafsaani media does not make the shaitaani stations and channels halaal. Their evil by far outweigh whatever little goodness has been imagined.

The imaamate of this faasiq haafiz is Makrooh Tahrimi. It is not permissible to appoint a faasiq to lead the Salaat. If no pious haafiz is available, it is better to perform Taraaweeh reciting the short Surahs than to allow the faasiq haafiz to lead the Salaat.

It is not permissible. The worker is guilty of abusing amaanat in so doing.

Yes, the obligation is fulfilled. The Ruku’ suffices for this Sajdah although it is not proper to adopt this method. The Sajdah should be made.

It is baseless. Haraam meat does not become Halaal by reciting Bismillaah. Meat becomes Halaal when an animal has been correctly slaughtered according to the rules of the Shariah.

It is not permissible to change one’s natural hair and appearance in this way. It is a shaitaani act. According to the Qur’aan such changes wrought in natural appearance is the work of shaitaan.

There is a great dearth, in fact almost total unavailability of Islamic literature in English in terms of the Maaliki Math-hab. There are also no Maaliki Ulama versed in English of whom we are aware and to whom we could refer you to. In the circumstances, your adoption of the Maaliki Math-hab is pointless. You are unable to practice the Deen correctly without knowledge. Our advice is that you adopt the Hanafi Mah-hab. An abundant of literature in English is available according to the Hanafi Math-hab.

Ghusl is an adequate substitute for wudhu. Masah on the khuffain is valid if put on after ghusl.

It is not permissible to keep pet dogs even if not allowed into the house. The permissibility of keeping dogs applies to watchdogs, sheepdogs and the like. Only if there is a real need will it be permissible to keep a dog.

If the man and the woman were breastfed by the same woman during their infancy (i.e. 30 Islamic months from birth), then both are milk-brother and sister. Their marriage is not valid. They have to separate. The child will however be regarded legitimate.

It is not Sunnat. If occasionally a dua is made in this way, it is permissible. But to establish it as a permanent custom is bid’ah.

What doubt can a Muslim have in such visits being haraam?

One may make dua aloud when alone. However, the Sunnat method and the best method is to make dua silently. There is greater humility and fervour in silent dua. The Qur’aan Majeed and the Ahadith exhort silent dua.

It is not permissible for him to work in such a school where he will have to teach even females.

A gift made during maradhul maut (the last sickness in which the person dies) has the effect of a wasiyyat. It is valid in one third of the estate. If the value of the vehicle is not more than one third the value of all the assets of the mayyit, the gift is valid. If it is more than one third the value of the assets, it will be valid only in one third of the value of the estate. The donee will have to pay in the amount which is in excess of one third. However, if all the adult heirs voluntarily uphold the gift, it will be valid. But the share of any minor heir may not be compromised. The consent of a minor is not valid. The minor will inherit his/her full share.

From the information we have on this episode organized by some deviated persons, it is clear that it was an event organized by some females. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“Never ever will prosper a community which
appoints a woman over its affairs,”
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) made this comment when the daughter of the Persian emperor ascended the throne after her father’s death. The event organized by the miscreant women who are clamouring for public acclaim in diametric contradiction of the Qur’aan Majeed which commands that women be GLUED to their homes (with spiritual and Imaani Bostik), is a haraam function. It should be understood that women who clamour for publicity and crave to be in the forefront generally are afflicted with lesbian tendencies or even worse, they are outright lesbians, hence they pipe the western kuffaar theme of ‘equality of sexes’. Since they still claim to be Muslims, they seek to introduce their shaitaaniyat and nafsaaniyat under Islamic guise. They have no understanding of the Qur’aan and Sunnah. They are plain stupid women. In such women the attribute of nuqs-e-aql (deficiency of intelligence) is ten times more than the deficiency in a natural woman who does not suffer from the ailment of these women lib mutants. Such women who crave to be in the driving seat and to wear the man’s pants and whose husbands are in the dayyooth category according to Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), are not only extremely deficient in A’maal-e-Saalihah, but generally lack in Imaan on account of the explicit kufr they propound. These lib mutants according to the Shariah (Qur’aan and Ahadith) are mal-oonaat. Upon them descend the la’nat (curse) of Allah Ta’ala and His Malaaikah. They are the tools of Shaitaan who has enlisted them into his army. Iblees utilizes them to destroy the Imaan and the moral fibre of those Muslims who suffer the eternal misfortune and calamity of falling into the tentacles of the evil traps which these women weave in the name of Islam.

To discuss and argue rationally and academically with such agents of Iblees is an insult to Ilm and to the Deen. To become embroiled in an intelligent discussion with those who are afflicted with the accursed disease of lesbianism is like getting into a dispute with a drunken street-woman. Everyone knows how such a woman behaves. It is best to say to these evil women who are out to gain acclaim for them with their ideas of western kufr:

“Unto you is your deen (of kufr) and unto
us (Mu’mineen) is our Deen (of Islam).”
(Qur’aan)

We think the mutants in the women’s lib are in better position to issue a ‘fatwa’ on this silly question.

It is not permissible. They invite the Wrath of Allah Ta’ala by discarding the Law of Islam which has came down in the Ummah from generation to generation from the time of the Sahaabah. All the miscreants and deviates of the world cannot change the Ahkaam of the Shariah no matter how much they shout, clamour, raise slogans and spit venom.

Such evil women are under the Wrath and Curse of Allah Ta’ala. They have no true relationship with Islam. They manipulate Islam to project their evil and shaitaaniyat. They are akin to those so-called Muslim males who have formed a “Muslim” society of homosexuals. These defeminized women are the counterparts of the vile, accursed society of Muslim homosexuals. Soon these miserable enemies of Islam will have achieved adequate audacity and shamelessness to publicly establish a society of ‘Islamic’ lesbians in the same way as the kuffaar masquerading as Muslims have initiated a society of ‘Muslim’ homosexuals. May Allah Ta’ala save Muslims from the fitnah which is erupting on all sides of the Ummah. In fact, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had predicted that the fitnah will spread in such abundance and swiftness like beads scattering from a broken string of beads. The fitnah of the defeminized women with lesbian tendencies is one such fitnah which is silently and imperceptibly creeping into the Muslim community.

The nikah was not contracted properly, hence it is not valid. The nikah should be repeated. It is a simple procedure. Someone should get the girl’s consent for her nikah to be performed. This person will then be her Wakeel (representative). The Wakeel, the boy (groom) and two witnesses should assemble at one place. The Wakeel should make the Ijaab (Proposal)by saying: “Aabidah has instructed me to contract her Nikah with you, Abdullah. Do you accept her in your Nikah?” The boy should then respond: “I have accepted her in my Nikah.” Both witnesses have to hear the Ijaab (Proposal) and the Qubool (Acceptance). The Nikah will then be valid even if no mehr is mentioned and even if the nikah khutbah is not recited. But it is best to recite the nikah khutbah. Anyone present may recite it. The mehr amount should also be arranged.

The refusal of the parents is of no consequence, neither legally nor morally. Morally they have no right to refuse because in allowing their children to attend kuffaar university and strike up zina relationships they have abdicated and abandoned their Waajib parental responsibility. They have paved the path of Jahannam for their children. They thus have no Shar’i right to refuse when their children desire to rectify a haraam relationship and render it halaal. Parents should take note of this and not try to invoke their parental right and authority in such situations. Misdirected authority, be it parental authority, cannot be rewarded with obedience. Parents who are engrossed with their worldly affairs and oblivious of the Shariah, are insistent on sending their daughters to immoral secular institutions. They have no objection to the haraam and illicit relationships of zina which their sons and daughters strike up at university. The evil relationship continues for long periods with the tacit consent of fussaaq parents. But as soon as the children enter into nikah, a storm is let loose and everything is done in an attempt to break the union. Remember that parental blessings and the performance of Nikah in the Sunnat style with honour and joy are ingredients of a holy setting, not of a haraam relationship.

It is not permissible to fix a specific Surah for any Salaat.

Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) lived through shirk as well. But to claim that the shirk of the kuffaar is a sunnat merely because Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) lived through it, is ridiculous and baseless. Sihr (magic) is haraam. It cancels out Imaan. Surah Falaq and Surah Naas were specially revealed as a remedy for Sihr. To have patience when misfortune strikes is necessary and meritorious. But a haraam practice should not be described as Sunnat. The attitude of patience and submission to the decree of Allah Ta’ala adopted by our Nabi (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) is Sunnat. It is important to understand that it is not permissible to accuse people of having committed sihr without having real evidence. The revelation produced by some amal of an aamil is not evidence in the Shariah.

No, he is not allowed to do so. If his son is not at home, he should not unnecessarily visit his daughter-in-law. If need sometimes occasions a visit, he should seek permission from outside to enter. He may not simply step into the house without permission. Furthermore, he should not lounge around the house when his son is not present. His ownership of the property is not a licence for acting recklessly and disrespectfully. His action is fraught with fitnah.

People are really groveling and scraping the very bottom of the barrel of nafsaaniyat and jahaalat when they cite the Sahaabah and the Holy Wives of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) as substantiation for their practices which are stepping stones for zina of different degrees. These people are truly befogged in their minds with the liquor of their nafs to present the Sahaabah and the Holy Wives to back up their haraam practices. The Honourable Ladies of Rasulullah’s House never conducted a girls madrasah or a western secular school which is nowadays dubbed ‘Islamic’ school to deceive parents who have deceived themselves because they simply want to be deceived so that these evil secular schools can have some justification and gain acceptance in the Muslim community. There is absolutely no basis in the Sunnah for these hybrid secular schools and for the haraam zina style teaching by a young girl in a mixed class of baaligh boys and girls. Zina of the eyes, zina of the ears and zina of the minds are being perpetrated every moment in that shaitaani class with so many shayaateen set loose by this haraam system. Those who present fallacious arguments to justify such haraam practices are making a mockery of the Sahaabah and the Holy Wives by citing them as substantiation. They are furthermore, slandering these holy personages by attributing lies to them.

When occasionally the pious Sahaabah and pious Taabieen would visit the elderly and saintly wives of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to gain some knowledge of the DEEN, not worldly knowledge, they would be behind a screen as commanded by the Qur’aan. After gaining the knowledge in a very short time, they would depart probably never to return again. By what stretch of imagination can these juhala equate the haraam school set-up with the method in which the Holy Wives imparted Deeni knowledge on a very very informal basis and observing strict Hijaab. On the contrary, the group of baaligh boys and girls being taught by a young girl constitutes a class of zina. Shayaateen constantly are in their company. Their logic is disgraceful.

Supporting such a haraam school is a kabeerah sin. Allah Ta’ala warns in His Qur’aan: “Do not aid one another in sin and transgression.” This school is not an Islamic school. It is aiding and abetting pupils to commit zina. Even if the Muslim boy is present, it remains haraam for the girl to be in the company of either the Muslim boy or the non-Muslim teacher. The brains of those who claim that this haraam zina practice is a ‘sacrifice for the Deen’, must be clogged with spiritual filth and pollution. How can a Muslim ever describe haraam —– a kabeerah sin —as a “sacrifice for the Deen”? It is truly a disgusting state of affairs which exists in these so-called Islamic schools. Truly, the Ummah is engulfed with fitnah on every side. May Allah Ta’ala protect us all from the evil, fitnah, nafsaaniyat and shaitaaniyat of those who are supposed to be the learned ones. Evil originates from them and their own evil will rebound and hem them in.

Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Saheb has erred in his opinion on this matter. Islam does not recognize the concept of a fictitious person called ‘juridical person’. Islam also holds the debtors liable for their full debt. They cannot escape their liabilities, responsibilities and obligations under cover of the kuffaar company-concept. The creditors will have the right to demand their Huqooq even in Qiyaamah. We have written a refutation of the view presented by Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Saheb. Anyone interested in the detailed discussion may write to us for a copy. Please send a stamp of R3. People from other countries should not send stamps. Stamps of other countries cannot be used in South Africa.

Interest called by any name remains haraam. The ‘penalty’ mentioned is haraam riba. The arguments which Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Saheb presented in his book are exceedingly weak, in fact spurious. This opinion militates against all the Nusoos (categoric Qur’aanic aayaat and Ahaadith of the Mutawaatir category). There is no scope for this ‘penalty’. Insha’Allah, we are in the process of preparing a refutation in response to the arguments which Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Saheb has presented in substantiation of the legality of interest on late payment of instalments.

Note: Read "Penalty of Default" in the books sections of this website for a detailed discussion.

On the contrary, Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Uthmaani Saheb rejects the baatil opinion of the permissibility of cutting hair for women. Hadhrat Mufti Saheb has no where endorsed the opinion of the deviate who has bent far backwards to make halaal what has been considered haraam in the Ummah for the past fourteen centuries. Hadhrat Mufti Taqi Saheb has issued a categoric rebuttal of the deviate’s opinion. He has been misinterpreted for the sake of eking out support for the baatil opinion. Insha’Allah, our response to the silly Rejoinder will soon be forthcoming. We shall show the fallacy of the incongruous and spurious arguments of the deviate, Insha’Allah. Whoever wishes to have a copy of the booklet may write to us for a copy. We shall appreciate some stamps to alleviate the burden of postal expenses, etc.

note: Read the book in the book section of this website.

The explanation we gave in our article, Credit Buying, is correct. It complies fully with the Shariah. You can be assured of this. If any among the Ulama feel that we have erred, they are welcome to present their arguments for our perusal and benefit. The opinions of those who lack adequate knowledge of the Shariah, cannot be entertained.

If the intention when kissing the grave is worship, then such kissing is kufr. If the niyyat is not ibaadat (worship), the act nevertheless remains a major sin.

No Mufti and no intelligent Muslim layman who possess some understanding of the Deen will accept these haraam nafsaani conditions. The so-called mufti who has advised the husband to observe this concoction of haraam is either a total jaahil or is seeped in some sinister evil. How can any Aalim or any honourable Muslim ever condone the haraam conditions stipulated buy this woman who appears not to have an iota of fear for Allah Ta’ala in her heart. Every condition she has stipulated is baatil and haraam. It is not permissible for the husband to submit to this evil of his errant wife on whom settles the la’nat (curse) of Allah Ta’ala every moment according to the Ahadith of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). No Mufti and no Body of Ulama can ever annul this Nikah. Annulment of a Nikah is not a joke although we know that evil learned men and ignoramuses who think that they are Ulama, and half-baked molvis are quick to write out stupid ‘annulment’ certificates at the behest of misguided women who come to ‘cry’ on their shoulders. Such ‘annulment certificates’ are not worth the paper on which written. The nikah remains valid and any union with another man on the basis of a mock ‘nikah’ performed, will be an adulterous relationship which will spawn illegitimate offspring.

A person who mocks and ridicules the beard or any Sunnat of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) leaves the fold of Islam. He becomes a murtadd thereby.

There are no conflicting views on this evil and kabeerah sin. It is haraam to visit astrologers or fortune-tellers of any kind. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“Forty days of Salaat of a person who
visits a fortune-teller is not accepted.”
(Saheeh Muslim, Musnad-e-Ahmad)

“He who visits a fortune-teller and believes
him (i.e. his predictions), verily he has
committed kufr.” (Ahmad)

Besides these narrations, there are other Ahadith too which severely condemn astrologers/fortune-tellers and their evil profession.

It is fardh to observe purdah for cousins, i.e. male and female cousins should observe strict hijaab among themselves. Whoever criticizes any law of the Shariah becomes a murtadd.

Islam does not advocate stupid antics. Those, especially, Muslims who engage in such tactics of the non-Muslims, do so for some cheap publicity. Besides the silliness and base motive underlying this publicity stunt, there is a grave implication in it for Muslim participants. The Qur’aan forbids fleeing from the battlefield. In this regard, the Qur’aan Majeed declares: “O People of Imaan! When you meet up with the unbelievers (i.e. face the enemy in the battlefield), then do not turn your backs (in flight). Whoever turns his back (in flight) on that day (of Battle), except as a strategy to return and fight or to link up with another group (of fighting Muslims), verily, he has earned the Wrath of Allah. His abode is Jahannum. Indeed it is an evil abode.”

The group of so-called human shields from South Africa included some Muslims. They went with much publicity. Far from honouring their declared intention and achieving their objective, the South African ‘human shields’ were the first to run away and abandon the Battlefield. They presented some stupid argument to justify their cowardly flight from the Battlefield. In the circumstances prevailing in Iraq, Jihaad is Fardh-e-Ain. The Muslim ‘human shields’ come within the purview of the aforementioned aayat. They are damn cowards who turned their backs when the heat was turned on. They abandoned the battlefield in cowardly flight and yet have the damn audacity to portray themselves as ‘heroes’ who did yeomen and valiant service for the Iraqi people. Only people who are completely dimwitted and soft in the brains will swallow the stupid excuses they present to justify their cowardly flight from the Battlefield. They were supposed to be ‘human shields’ to block the kuffaar attack. But even the suffering of the Iraqi Muslims, which they observed could not persuade these miserable and spineless ‘human shields’ to tarry a minute longer.

The Ummah will accept this claim only if these modernist shayaateen can prove that the Sahaabah, the Fuqaha of the Taabieen age, the Fuqaha of the Tabe Taabieen age, all the Fuqahaa of Ma Waraaun Nahr (Bukhara, Samarqand, etc., etc., and the entire Ummah besides the Muslims of the Indo-Pak subcontinent, were carriers of Indo-Pak identity documents. If they cannot prove this, then let them wallow in their shaitaani jahaalat. If they can prove that the Qur’aan Majeed which forcefully and explicitly propagates Purdah is of Indo-Pak origin, then we can concede the claim made by these morons. If they can prove that the famous Books of Ahaadith and Fiqh were authored by Indo-Pak Ulama and that the Fuqaha of Arabia and all other Lands which were at one time famous for Deeni Uloom, were Indians and Pakistanis, then we can bow our heads to their stupid claim. Even jahaalah (crass ignorance) is supposed to have limits. But it appears that the particular jahaalah of the homosexuals and lesbians of this age is a bottomless pit —an abyss of veritable IGNORANCE. Let us petition Allah Ta’ala to save us from such ruin.

Khula’ is not a unilateral right, neither of the wife nor of the husband. It is a mutual contract whereby the wife pays a sum of money to secure her release from her marriage. When the husband refuses to issue Talaaq to a wife who does not want to live with him, she may induce him to give her talaaq in lieu of a sum of money. If he accepts, the contract will be binding. She will have to pay the agreed amount and he will have to issue Talaaq. The idea that khula’ is a right which vests in the wife is absolutely baseless.

Assuming that the nail polish contains no haraam ingredients, then too it is haraam to use this substances since neither ghusl nor wudhu is valid while the nails are coated with this substance which forms an impervious coating on the nails. Nail polish prevents water from reaching the surface of the nail. Besides this, it contains haraam substances such as alcohol.

Wudhu will break.

The mouth should be rinsed and the Salaat repeated.

If he performs Salaat in the Musjid alone after the Jamaat has completed, he should not recite Iqaamah—not even silently.

Regardless of there being no images of animate objects, all ‘lahw’ (sport/play/amusement) of the kuffaar type is baatil (haraam) according to Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). All types of games such as carim, ludu, dominos, etc, including computer games, fall within the scope of the prohibition of lahw. Computer games are addictive, especially for children. The one evil leads to another. Children addicted to wasting hours on the shaitaani games will end up viewing the filth of computer pornography. The Shariah prohibits all stepping stones of evil. The ultimate consequence of these games is zina because indulgence in computer pornography is a logical and a necessary effect of the addiction of computer games even if in the beginning only such games are indulged in in which there are no animate images. Shaitaan is a sly teacher. He only touches one’s finger in the beginning. The next time he will hold the finger for a brief moment. Then progressively he will increase his hold until he ultimately swallows a person into his belly of evil.

Just look at the evil of these so-called ‘Islamic’ radio stations and channels. They initially proclaimed that Islam was their aim. In the beginning the issue was only the female’s voice which the same mob running the station had believed to be Satr and haraam to exposure. But now look from what evil to which evil they have degenerated. Soon you will see them presenting ‘elaborate’ justification for television which is already on the cards of the miscreant ulama-e-soo’. For their basis they have started to cite the silliest of arguments as ‘daleel’ for the permissibility of haraam television. Their stupid ‘daleel’ is that the Pakistani ulama are appearing on television. In this time when people are rejecting the Taqleed of the Sahaabah, those who are not Ulama but hoodwink the public into believing that they are Ulama, want us to make taqleed of misguided, worldly ulama of Pakistan as if Wahi has descended on them. Have they no better argument, than to cite ‘Pakistani’ Ulama? There is no principle in the Shariah which advocates taqleed of the haraam actions of Pakistani Ulama or of Arab Ulama or of whatever haraam takes place in Makkah and Madina.

Yes, it is correct. It has to be buried.

There is no basis for this bid’ah custom.

The iddat of a menstruating woman is three haidh periods. The haidh period in which the Talaaq is given is not counted. Three full haidh periods will be her iddat. The iddat of an old woman beyond the age of haidh is three months from the day of Talaaq.

No, it is not necessary. He may stand on any side and in any saff.

The Athaan should not be repeated. When the Muath-thin realizes that he has omitted a statement from the Athaan or Iqaamat, he should repeat the words immediately before the omitted statements. Then he should continue as usual.

It is Sunnat to pause after every statement of the Athaan. If this has not been observed, it will be Mustahab to repeat the Athaan.

This mas’alah applies to the Muath-thin as well. It is not permissible to allow a faasiq to be the Muath-thin of a Musjid. The Athaan of a faasiq is Makrooh Tahrimi.

The Nikah cannot be annulled. Although the woman had the right to refuse conjugal relations in view of non-payment of her mehr, she cannot refuse now to accept the mehr which her husband wants to give to her. Her Nikah cannot be annulled. A woman who refuses the conjugal rights of her husband is a mal-oonah (cursed) according to Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam).

Stop the Tilaawat and pay attention to the Athaan.

Even if the money, etc., belongs to her, it is necessary that she consults with her husband and obtains his consent. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) ordered that a woman consults with her husband. He also said that a women should not displease her husband even in the matter of her wealth.

No, it is not better. The burial should be done as soon as possible. There should be no unnecessary delay.

Hanafis should make two Salaams. Making two Salaams is Waajib.

It is not permissible.

Yes, it is compulsory to give the body ghusl regardless of it having been retrieved from the sea.

Yes, the Salaat was valid.

It is not permissible.

Muslims who are killed by the bombs and missiles of the kuffaar are Martyrs (Shuhada). The laws of Shahaadat apply to them. They will be buried without ghusl.
