Revoking a Talâqur Raj’î

1. When the husband issues one or two divorces that are raj’î, he has the choice or right to revoke such a divorce before the expiry of the wife’s ‘iddah. In such a case, there is no need to renew the nikâh. The woman has no choice in this matter – he can revoke the divorce irrespective of whether she agrees or not. But if he issues three divorces, he has no choice of revoking the divorce as explained previously.

Hadrat Abdullah bin Zaid (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Messenger of ALLAH took the people in open ground (place) and performed Salaah for rain. He led them in two rak’ahs in the course of which he recited from the Holy QURAAN in a loud voice.

The Virtues and Rights of Marriage Part 01

1. It is mentioned in a Hadîth that this world has been created to be utilised and that of all the things that are utilised in this world, there is nothing better than a pious woman. In other words, if a person is fortunate enough to get a pious wife, it will be a great blessing. It is also a mercy from Allah Ta’âlâ that she is actually a comfort for the husband and a means for his success in this world and in the hereafter. A person enjoys comfort from such a woman for his worldly needs and she also assists him in fulfilling his religious duties.

On Salah

Q. Some people seem to recite words used in Salah without moving their lips. What is the correct method?

A. Well, reciting words verbally is necessary in salah, no matter how low the voice is. But, the movement of the tongue, and the movement of lips in the required words, is necessary. Now, if a person stands in salah and recites everything within his heart, his salah will remain simply unperformed.

Q. Some people look here and there while in salah. Is this permissible?

The Nature of the Mujahideen’s Relationship with the State

The second important factor is that the Jihad organisations should not become an organ of the state at any time. Though according to the circumstances and situations, for the welfare of the Jihad and the Muslims, mutual cooperation between the Jihad Movements and the states is not a bad thing and in some situation it is vital, but to depend completely on the states for procurement, resources and to submit to the state’s dictate and their policies, would tantamount to an act of suicide.

Concise and foremost counsels Part 6

Hadrat Abu Zarr Ghifari (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that my beloved friend has specially recommended the following seven things.

1. Loving the needy and destitute,

2. Looking towards those who are below me (i.e. those who do not possess as much as I have) and should not look towards those who are above me (i.e. those who have much more provision for worldly life than I have). In some traditions it has been reported that by doing so a habit of patience and thankfulness is created and it is evident also.

Inquiry about dreams

It was his noble habit to sit cross-legged after having said morning prayer and ask the people about their dreams. Who ever should have seen a dream, he would mention it. Before hearing the dream he would recite:

Accept the good and guard against the evil. Let (this dream) bode good for us and evil for our enemies. Praise be to ALLAH, the Cherisher of the worlds. Later he abandoned the practice. [Zad-ul-Ma’ad, Shamail-e-Tirmizi]

ASSURED ACCEPTANCE OF SUPLICATIONS (DUA)

A:

إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ لآيَاتٍ لأُولِي الأَلْبَابِ (3:190)

Surely, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are signs for the people of wisdom,

الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ قِيَاماً وَقُعُوداً وَعَلَى جُنُوبِهِمْ وَيَتَفَكَّرُونَ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَذَا بَاطِلاً سُبْحَانَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ (3:191)

Who remember Allah standing and sitting, and (lying) on their sides, and ponder on the creation of the heavens and the earth (and say) ―Our Lord, You have not created all this in vain. We proclaim Your purity. So, save us from the punishment of Fire.
