Salam alaikom, One other thought, we need to develop tawakul -reliance upon Allah & to seek from Him. I also want to say this, if Allah is keeping you from mixing with others it is for your benefit insha Allah! About 10 years ago, I lived above a muslim family, the sister and I got along...

Please spread the word (as many of you have alkready done!) Peace to you, I really hate to ask, but this is too important, this is also so crucial to our futures, our sense of who we are as a nation. God willing. So I am doing something that I would not normally do - I am begging you...

Assalamu alaikom brother, InshaAllah I shall bookmark these and take proper time in paying attention to them. :) I also agree that the 4 schools all have valid basis for differing opinions and no Imam treated any other with disrespect and that part of the beauty of Islam is in the...

Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, I would just like to add that in regard to my sister Revert2007, that I absolutely commend her beautiful intentions and our debate should be considered really in the light of the passion and sincere regard for Godfearingness, and not as a...

Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, InshaAllah, I would say that imam ghazali rid himself of the poverty of arrogance, was not a sufi but in fact trod paths explained them and then explained why they were incorrect. InshaAllah, he also returned to his family and to teaching...

Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, I just wished to clarify, in Islam we generally recognise that there are four main schools of Fiqu and jurisprudence that are widely accepted in their diversity, because this is a mercy from allah subhana wa t'ala. Is this concensus accepted...

He Almighty also says: “O ye wives of the Prophet! Ye are not like any other women. If ye keep your duty (to Allah), then be not soft of speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease aspire (to you), but utter customary speech.” (Al-Ahzab: 32) Hence it is clear that Islam does not allow...

Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, The fast is given for what is intended, however it cannot cover a multitude of intentions, so if it is to make-up a fast, that is what it is for, if it is to follow the sunnah, then it is a good deed, if it is an expiation, then that is what...

Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat allahi wa burrahktohu, Bismillah Aauthu billahi minish shaytan nirajeem Dear sister, It is unfortunate that you have taken offence, but Islam is a religion of the middle way and one of ease for us, we must obey Allah subhana wa t'ala. I would correct you in...

Assalamu alaikom Palestine, Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim, Aauthu billahi minish shaytan nirajeem dear sister, Yes, marriage is something that if we do not fear Allah and do not obey Him and are unaware of what is obligatory upon us, including how we treat each other, can go...

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim Aauthu billahi minish shaytan nirajeem Assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, I am going to sound I guess controversial. Please, remember that there is an addab for dealing with the opposite gender, it is not one of avoidance but one of limiting...

assalamu alaikom wa rahmat Allahi wa burrahktohu, As everyone has already stated and with sources the punishment of the grave is real. InshaAllah, in regard to implementing shariah law, first one should actually study those laws which are comprehensive. What is obligatory is for every...

# Ameen. May we all remember that in fact, Allah has given us this life to test our faith, increase our rewards and sacrifice the attachments of the dunya for the Ahquirah. Ma'shAllah, this beautiful sister has demonstrated that inreality, perhaps we are still too attached to the dunya...
