Whether mispronouncing Inshaa' Allaah is Kufr or not
Assalaamu alaykum. I know that it is prescribed to say Inshaa' Allaah (Allaah willing). However, if a person says Ishaa'Allaah instead of saying Inshaa'Allaah, would this amount to disbelief? If any of the Arab brothers in the fatwa centre could please explain to me what this means, I would greatly appreciate it. The reason why I am asking is because.. More

Wearing lipstick to appear healthy has nothing to do with Shirk
I wear the hijab given that I am Muslim, but I do apply lipstick, not with the intention to adorn myself, but in order to avoid the stares and undue attention that people give me, as well as theirquestioning me as to whether I am feeling well or not because of my pale lips and ill look. I know that it is a sin to do so, but am I commiting minor Shirk.. More

What Abu Hayyaan said about those who claim to know the unseen
I want to ask about the commentary of Abu Hayyaan Al-Andalusi on verse 188 of Surah Al-A'raf, from Tafsir Al-Bahr Al-Muheet, if not all of it, then please at least tell us a gist of that when he is talking about the people of Egypt regarding their claim of so and so having knowledge of the Unseen. It is very important; I am unable to translate it; I.. More

Boasting about sins to gain fame
Assalaamu alaykum. As far as I know, regarding things that have been unanimously agreed upon to be haram as halal is Kufr (disbelief). What is the ruling on someone who does not regard a haram thing as halal but boasts about doing it in order to become reputed in his circle? For example, someone boasts about how he flirts with girls and so on; is that.. More

Asking non-Muslim parents to settle disputes is not Tahaakum to Taaghoot
Assalamu alaykum. This question might be from Waswaas (devilish whisperings), but I will try to keep it simple as I suffer from Waswaas and need an urgent answer. It is well known that if you do Tahaakum to the Taaghoot (false gods), it is Kufr Akbar (major disbelief). Tahaakum means when two or more disputing parties refer their dispute to a third.. More

Drinking lot of water to treat magic
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu Shaykh. I was told that drinking water is good for me because sorcery was done on me. I want to know whether I would be doing something against the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,by drinking even when I am full or almost full, as the hadith says, “The son of Adam does not..

Religion of jinn before Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam
I want to know what the religion of the jinn was before Muhammad's, sallallaahu ʻalayhi wa sallam, mission? Did they believe in previous Holy Books or any other Prophets before Muhammad, sallallaahu ʻalayhi wa sallam? Why do they have to consider themselves to rely on the religion whose leader is a man? Is their world not separate from ours?

Declaring members of deviant sects to be Kaafirs
Assalaamu alaykum. I have one question regarding the Ahmadiyyah, the Alawites, and other similar sects that have been classified as disbelievers by scholars. I know that they are disbelieving sects, but I do want to ask: do we say that all their members are disbelievers, or are some of their members excused to to ignorance? For example if the proof.. More

Prophets higher in status than Awliyaa'
Assalaamu alaykum. I do not have the knowlegde of those verses and narrations regarding the creed that the Prophets of Allaah are higher in status than any other creation and that it is disbelief to believe that any saint is better than the Prophets. I seriously need proof from the Quran and the Sunnah to show them to the persons who have the opposite.. More

Ruling on papers that may contain amulet written in Arabic
Assalaamu alaykum. I recently got married and my wife is not very practicing in following islam; Allaah willing, she is just learning. My issue is, I have accidently found some papers and notes in the Arabic language in my wife's purse. Me and my wife cannot read arabic and cannot understand it. They are handwritten, and it does not seem to me like.. More

Addressing Allaah with third person pronoun
Assalaamu alaykum. Thank you for replying to my message. This question is bothering me a lot, and I pray to Allah to satisfy my search through your advice. In Islam, we see everywhere that Allaah, The Exalted, loves His slaves to praise, worship, respect, and honor him. We always show our respect to elders and people of high ranks by addressing them..

Judging that someone will enter Hellfire is of two kinds: general and specific
Assalaamu alaykum Shaykh. I read that we Muslims are obligated to believe that Christians, Jews and other people who do not follow Islam are Kafirs (disbelievers) and cannot doubt their Kufr (disbelief). I also know that we believe that when proof has been established against these people and they refuse Islam and do not repent and after that they die,.. More

Similarity of Paradise to wordily life only in names
I have heard that you claim in your fatwa that nothing resembles Paradise except in name only? Does this mean that the descriptions are simply analogies and are not meant to be taken literally? If so, then what is the purpose of the description? What have the scholars said?

Statement of Ibn Hazm about ruling on one who mocks Allaah
Assalaamu alaykum. I have read a statement of Ibn Hazm in which he says that anyone who mocks Allaah is regarded a disbeliever after showing him the evidence. The source is: Al-fasi fi aAl-Malal wal Ahwa wal Nihal 3/299. However, I have often read that there is no excuse of ignorance regarding the disbelief of insulting Allaah or the religion. You said..

Saying that something is right or wrong in Islam without knowledge
Assalaamu alaykum. If someone commits Kufr (disbelief) by saying that something that is wrong is the right thing or by stating that something is permissible when it is impermissible, then for his repentance to be accepted, does he have to correct this statement in front of whomever he had said it to?
