A Woman Sees Menstrual Blood after opening the fast but before praying Maghrib

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

Question:

A woman asks: The normal monthly menstrual blood showed after the opening of the fast and before I performed the Maghrib prayer; so is my fasting correct?

Answer:

Yes, it is correct. As long as it did not come upon you except after sunset, then it is not incumbent upon you to repeat (that day’s fasting), and that day’s fasting is correct. As for if the (menstrual) blood comes upon you before the adhaan, meaning before the setting of the sun, then (your) fasting on that day is ruined and you must repeat that day’s fasting. But as long as the (menstrual) blood came after the setting of the sun and after you have taken food for the opening of the fast, then the fasting of that day is correct and it is not incumbent upon you to (repeat it) Inshaa-Allaah.

Shaikh Hasan Al-Banna on Witnessing Salafi Publications

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

The Shaikh (may Allaah preserve him) said:‏

All praise be to Allaah, maashaa’Allaah, they have organisation (in da’wah), they have a maktabah salafiyyah, they have a school, a kindergarten or primary school, all these things are tremendous and all praise be to Allaah they have big numbers with them. They also have with them many mashaayikh from amongst them Shaykh Abu Khadeejah, they have knowledge, with them is knowledge, and other than him like Shaykh Abu Hakeem Bilal. All of these maashaa’Allaah and many other people beside them – they are many people I met so I cannot recall their names – but those that are with them I find that they are upon khayr (goodness). Since they have many students of knowledge with them from their likes, so it is laazim (incumbent) that they traverse upon their way, because they have indibaat (firm discipline, groundedness), and all praise is due to Allaah, and they have cooperation and love for the sake of Allaah. They are from the best we have seen here from the different centres and (…) them upon steadfastness(..).”

Saeed Bin Jubayr (rahimahullaah) said: I said to Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa): ”Should I command the (Muslim) Ruler with good and forbid him from evil?” He (Ibn Abbaas) said: ”If you fear that he will kill you, then do not (do so).” I repeated the same (question), so he (Ibn Abbaas) repeated the same (answer). Then I repeated the same (question), so he (Ibn Abbaas) repeated the same (answer) and said: ”If you have to do that, then it should be between you and him (i.e. in private).” [Jaami-ul Uloom Wal-Hikam: page:338]

Our Salaf:–It was said to Hasan Al-Basri……

It was said to Al-Hasan Al-Basri (rahimahullaah): Indeed, the people say that ”Whoever testifies that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah will enter paradise”; so he (i.e. Al-Hasan) said: ”Whoever testifies that none has the right to worshipped except Allaah and then he fulfills its rights and obligations, he will enter paradise”. [Jaami-ul Uloom Wal-Hikam: 224]

It was said to Al-Wahb Ibn Munabbih (rahimahullaah): ”Is not the testimony that ‘none has the right to be worshipped except Alllaah’ the key to paradise? He said: ‘Certainly, but there is not a key except that it has teeth; so if you come with a key that has teeth, it will open for you, otherwise it will not open for you.’ [Jaami-ul Uloom Wal-Hikam: page:224]
