  • Feeling Safe about Hypocrisy and is not being Worried about It

    I feel secure from hypocrisy. When I think about it I think "no I am not a hypocrite" because I don't lie and break my promises. I feel safe in my heart and I don't feel worried about hypocrisy much at all. I do not feel scared that I am a hypocrite. I want to feel scared that I am a hypocrite but I don't! I have some traits of hypocrisy like not praying.. More

  • How Allah teaches His Prophets

    In Surah Al-Maa’idah, it is is stated (what means): {...and [remember] when I taught you writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel...} [Quran 5:110] How did Allah teach Jesus, peace be upon him? .. More

  • Allah sees Himself - Hadeeth about lowering rope into well

    1- I read this somewhere: For He exists with the attribute of perfection, and the fact that He can be seen both by Himself and others is among the characteristics of perfection. Does this mean that Allah can see Himself? 2- Prophet Mohammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,said, "If one of you lowered a bucket by a rope (into a well), then it would.. More

  • Fatwa section not concerned with refuting books

    I wanted to ask about the following two scholars: 1) Abi Abdillah Muhammad bin Musa bin An-Nu‘man At-Timasani (d. 683H). 2.) Badr Ad-Deen Az-Zarkashi Ash-Shaafi‘i. Both of them supported Istigaathah (seeking help) through the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,after his death, as is evident from the book Al-Mustagheetheeen bi khayr.. More

  • Ruling on Muslim who practices palmistry and believes in effect of stars

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh, Shaykhs. My father's brother does palm reading, believes in stars (that one has such-and-such qualities because they are born in such a period of such a month), does not pray, and does not pay zakah. Can I consider him a Muslim? Will I be sinful if I call him a Muslim? He has not been praying nor paying.. More

  • Substituting for non-Muslim colleagues during their festivals

    Assalaamu alaykum. Our factory runs 24 hours/day. So when our Eids come, we take a leave and our non-Muslim colleagues, they take our shifts. Similarly, when their Puja comes, they take a leave and we take their shifts. Is it allowed for us to do so? Or does this constitute helping in sin? .. More

  • Each person has Qareen from the jinn

    Hello. Did all of Allah's Prophets have a devil with them all the time? Is it correct to say that if some person does not have a devil with them that they are free from sins? Thank you very much, kind Sir. .. More

  • Signs of the Hour are not necessarily evil things

    Shaikh, I have read the following in fatwa no. 82413: Imam Ahmad narrated that the Prophet said, "Shortly before the Last Hour, people will greet only known persons, trade will be well spread till the woman helps her husband in trading, kin relations will be cut off, false witness will prevail, hiding the truth, and the spread of using the pen." I.. More

  • Admiring good quality in disbeliever or sinner

    if I have a good opinion or appreciation about the intelligence, potential, talent, shining in life (study, job, other fields etc.) of a sinner who is a Muslim/disbeliever (male or female) while not liking their sins, is it enough to protect my faith? Or do I need to hate their intelligence, shining in life, and all good qualities because of their sins.. More

  • Pre-Islam Makkans believed in Tawheed Ar-Ruboobiyyah

    Assalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I read your previous fatwas, and you claim that the polytheists of Makkah believed in Tawheed Ar-Ruboobiyyah (Oneness of Lordship)? We agree that believing that Allah has offspring amounts to Shirk (polytheism) in Ruboobiyyah, and the polytheists of Makkah believed angels to be the daughters of Allah, so why then do Wahabis/Salafis.. More

  • The types of Kufr (disbelief) according to Ibn Al-Qayyim

    In order for a Kaafir (disbeliever) to be punished for their disbelief, do they have to hear about Islam and think that it is true, or do they simply have to hear about Islam and reject it, regardless of whether they believe it to be true or not? Please do not refer me to an existing fatwa. .. More

  • Allah changing His image on the Day of Resurrection

    I have read this somewhere '...then Al-Jabbar will come to them in an image different than the image in which they saw Him the first time...' (Al-Bukhaari 7440, Muslim 183). Does this hadith mean that Allah, The Exalted, is capable of changing his image? .. More

  • The term 'Khulood' denotes a long stay

    Assalaamu alaykum: https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/179517 In this fatwa, you said that Khulood means a very long time, but not eternity. Does that mean that the words Khaalidand Khaalideena in the Quran do not mean forever? So what about the translations that say that it means "forever", such as 5:119? .. More

  • Baraa’ is declared against non-Muslims only

    Assalaamu alaykum. I want to ask regarding showing Baraa’ (disassociation) towards everyone if they go against our belief. Imam Abu Obaid Al-Qaasim ibn Salaam narrated that Salamah bin Kuhail said, "Zahhaq, Maysarah, and Abul Bakhtari agreed that Baraa’ is an innovation." (Kitaab Al-Imaan 1/64) Shaykh Al-Albaani said, "Baraa’ is an innovation.. More
