Is It Allowed to Read the Qur’aan whilst in a State of Janaba? | Shaikh Zayd ibn Hadee al-Madkhalee

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Video.

This is from the lecture: “Beacons of Light” entitled as such due to this being the first time that we had linked up with Shaykh Zaid bin Haadee al Madhkalee and Shaykh Muhammad bin Haadi al Madhkalee (may Allah preserve them both). The two scholars gave advice towards recognising the blessings of Allah, the blessings of knowledge and the importance of spreading this knowledge.

This telelink took place in Markaz as-Salafi, Manchester.

What is the ruling on touching the kabah’s cloth?

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

This is among the innovations that has no basis. We have been commanded to follow the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam), (so) follow and do not innovate. ”Indeed in the Messenger of Allah (Muhammad) you have a good example to follow.” [Ahzaab: ayah: 21]. We neither know of the Messenger touching the kabah’s cloth nor his companions, and had it been a good thing, they would have preceded us in it. Therefore, touching the kabah’s cloth or the two walls of the Messenger’s compartment or the netting on it, then all of this is an innovation that has no basis in the Islamic legislation. [Al-Fataawaa Wad-duroos Fil Masjidil Haraam: Shaikh Abdullaah Bin Muhammad Bin Humaid (rahimahullaah): Page 130]

Legislated Rankings of Walees For marriage

Written by Abdullah Jallow on . Posted in Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Let us take a moment to be clear on the legislated ranks of wilaayah in a marriage contract. The following are the order of ranks, each of them being sound-minded adult men of the same religion:

1. Father

2. Grandfather (from the father’s side)

3. Great Grandfather (from the father’s side)

4. Son

5. Grandson

6. Great Grandson

7. Oldest Full Brother

8. Next Oldest Full Brother (and so on…)

9. Oldest Half-Brother (from the Father’s side)

10. Next Oldest Half-Brother (from the Father’s side, and so on…) [1]

11. Oldest son of a Full Brother (Nephew)

12. Next Oldest Son of Full Brother (Nephew)

13. Oldest Son of a Half-Brother from the Father’s side (Nephew)

14. Next Oldest Son of a Half Brother from the Father’s side (Nephew)

15. Grandson of Full Brother (oldest first)

16. Grandson of Half-Brother from the Father’s side (oldest first)

17. Oldest Paternal Uncle

18. Next Oldest Paternal Uncle (and so on…)

19. Oldest Son of Paternal Uncle (Cousin) [2]

20. Next Oldest Son of Paternal Uncle (Cousin, and so on…)

21. Oldest Great (Paternal) Uncle

22. Next Oldest Great (Paternal) Uncle (and so on…) [3]

Important: Each of the above mentioned walees has the right to appoint someone on his behalf to act on his behalf. So in this case, if the father appoints the brother to act as the walee, then he is the official and accepted walee, even in the presence of the grandfather, since the brother is the father’s chosen trustee and takes his place.

After these relatives have been exhausted, then a woman may seek to appoint a walee from outside her family through the Muslim authorities.
