Advice To Every Beginner Student of Knowledge – Shaikh Uthaymeen

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles.

Imaam Muhammad Bin Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) was asked: “Do you have an advice for the beginner student of knowledge?”

Answer:

“The advice to every person is that he purifies his intention for the sake of Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic) and his intention should neither be leadership nor prestige, nor wealth; rather his intention should be the removal of ignorance from himself and others. And he should establish the religion, defend and guard it. This is the most virtuous thing.” [Liqaa Al-Baab Al-Maftooh 226]

Hungry People Hoping for a Mouthful of Food & Scrap of Bread, Yet Some People Waste Food – a brief Admonition by Shaikh Fawzaan

Shaikh Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) said:

Reducing spending and not being extravagant and wasteful is an obligation during marriage ceremonies and other than it. These squanderers who waste meat and food and dispose of it in waste bins should be reminded that there are hungry people hoping for a mouth full of (food) and a scrap of bread. (They should be reminded) to fear Allaah and to fear Him in their gatherings, and that they do not become the cause of Allaah’s blessings being stop.

Is the intention for fasting obligatory? – Shaykh Fawzaan

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles, Fasting, Fatawa-Rulings, Ramadhan, Video.

Al Allaamah Ash Shaykh Saalih Al Fawzan (Hafidahullah) was asked: Is it obligatory to have the intention for all fasts whether they are supererogatory or in Ramadan?

It is obligatory to have the intention for the supererogatory or obligatory fasts. The Messenger said “Verily actions are based upon the intention”. For the obligatory fast it is a must that the intention is made prior to the coming of Fajr. As for the supererogatory fasts it is possible for a person to keep the fast after the coming of Fajr, if he has not eaten or drank after Fajr. It is therefore permissible to make the intention for the supererogatory fast during the day because (the affair) is broader for supererogatory fasts.

A Particular Female Reached The Age of Puberty But Is Too Weak To Fast – The Permanent Committee

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles, Family & Women, Fasting, Fatawa-Rulings, Islamic Jurisprudence - 'Fiqh', Ramadhan, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Question: A girl (started) menstuating at the age of eleven, so is fasting incumbent upon her despite the fact that her health has not been very good and she is in a state in which she does not have the ability to fast. Therefore, what is it that should be determined regarding her affair?

Answer: If the situation is as you have stated, then fasting is incumbent upon her because menstruation is a sign that (females) have reached the age of puberty and that can be at the (age) of nine or more. If she is able to fast, it is obligated on her to fulfil it during the (prescribed) time (i.e. in Ramadhaan).  If she is incapable or is affected by severe difficulty, she should break the fast and it is obligated on her to make up for the (fasts she has missed) on other days when she has the ability to do that.

Al Allaamah Ahmad an Najmee (rahimahullah):

O slave of Allaah, may Allaah have mercy upon you; Observe the fasting of the month of Ramadhaan and standing in its night prayer. Take benefit from this opportunity, it may be that you will not get it again, as perhaps death may snatch you before the next Ramadhaan reaches you again.

“I’m Not Sure If I Recited Faatiha” – Shaykh Fawzaan

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles, Fatawa-Rulings, Salaah - Prayer, Video.

 

Ash Shaykh Saalih Al Fawzaan (hafidahullah) was asked regarding a woman who prayed but does not remember if she has recited Al-Faatihah or not?

 
Answer:
If this was from the angle of Waswaas [Satanic whisperings] and it occurs a lot to her then indeed she should not pay attention to it.

 
As for if this was accidental (i.e. left out unintentionally) then the origin is that she has not read it, therefore it is a must that she reads it.

What Do I Owe My Parents? – Shaykh Zayd bin Haadi

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Family & Women, Seeking Knowledge.

Al Allaamah Zayd bin Haadi Al Madhkhalee (rahimahullah) said:

“The greatest act of good (towards parents) is that the son whom Allaah has bestowed upon him with some (Islamic) knowledge, that from it, he offers (teaches) it to his parents as a first priority.

And this is better than being good to them by giving them money or anything other than that.

Then (it follows that) he should be good and dutiful to them with good words and good actions which pleases Allaah, then with that which pleases both of them (Parents).

[This applies to both Son and Daughter]”

The Best Gift from Parent to Child – Shaykh Zayd bin Haadi

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Articles.

 

Al Allaamah Zayd bin Haadi Al Madkhalee (rahimahullah) said:

And the best thing that a father can give and present to his
son is teaching him Islamic knowledge and to connect him with the teachings of Islam and also to take care of him in this great affair, Along with safeguarding his body and his character, morals and manners. And his care is one that should be complete (in every way) and he (the father) is rewarded for it.

Therefore, what great reward will he have with Allaah the Blessed and the Most High.

And the female child is the same as the male child in regards to the care required from both parents. And this is with regards to the father. As for the mother, then her reward is also according to the good she does for her son and daughter.

Al Allaamah Zayd bin Haadi Al Madkhalee (rahimahullah) said:

“Knowledge is priceless, and its seeker has undoubtedly known its value, and he has given his utmost effort for him to become a patient and forbearing teacher, because he is an inheritor (of knowledge) from the inheritors of the Noble Prophet (upon him be the salaah and salaam).”
