Smilla Rahmanir Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Shafi Gambia you will see the mousseline. So you didn't want to be in a Mohammed while early here was how we had Jemaine Salam alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh My dear brothers and sisters viewers at home, welcome to a new episode of Islamic where you are given the opportunity to put your questions to us inshallah IRA, and we will try our very best to answer those questions or misunderstandings that you have, according to the authentic teachings of the Quran and the Sunnah. But even Illa Italia there's a couple of ways that you can contact us inshallah Allah number one is through the telephone number
that is appearing at the bottom of the screen. So you can call in, put your question to us and we'll take it from there inshallah Tada Or secondly, is that you can put your questions to us via the WhatsApp number, which is also appearing at the bottom of your screen, and you can write your questions to us. And they will reach me on this particular device here.
And we'll take it from there but isn't really tired. So as we're waiting for your questions and your calls, I think it's very important for us to
remind ourselves of the month that we are in, we now have just started the new Islamic year 1444 1042 and 44 years after the year after the hedge Allah of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, and case maybe some of you are thinking, well, aren't we in the year?
2021 How is this 2022 What we follow a completely different calendar. Why is Islamic year so far behind? Well, the Islamic calendar is based upon the Hijra when the Prophet sallallaahu Selim left Makkah to go to El Medina.
And this was instilled by Ahmad Malhotra but all the Allahu Anhu that he we are, of course fully aware of the months in the year that I started to Tober what Allah subhanaw taala tell us that that there are 12 months within the year, and for the people of the past what know the year by the big event that happened in that particular year. So the Prophet SAW Selim was born in the animal field in the year of the elephant. Some of you may know that the incident we're about to hand the army came to want to destroy the Kaaba and Allah subhanaw taala destroyed them with this as mentioned in sort of old field. So previously, the years were known by the big event that happened in that year.
Now when herbal hottub Radi Allahu Anhu when he became the Khalifa, they were discussing their own calendar. Okay, when we should start the year, then they agreed upon, it should start with the healer of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Now,
this is number one, number two, of course, concerning the months, we're in the month of Muharram.
This is the first month of the Islamic year.
And is there any special
virtue or blessing in this particular month? Well, as important as some important information about the month itself, we'll have some important narrations that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam told us about this particular month, we know that it is shoudl la Halmahera that the prophets of Allah Salam referred to this month as the month of Allah Muhammad there therefore it has because it is merely attached to a las Panatela in this form, it shows that it is a noble month there's some more things for us to mention Inshallah, but before we mentioned them, they may come across actually in some of your questions, we actually have a call on the line so let us take that call inshallah Taylor and
also the question maybe continued with some benefits concerning the month of Muharram and Allah knows best so take the caller Salaam Alaikum
brother I have a question Sheikh for many years I've been making dua and by the way has not been has not being given what what I actually want so now because of what's besides going on in my mind and for you to put my mind at ease, I was able to learn is there something that I'm doing wrong? Or is it because of my sins by live acceptor is what he says Could you please explain this to me so I could be at ease. Charla Okay. May Allah bless you. Okay. Bismillah so the brothers,
we have enough color, so it can
only come when it comes
to ask a question, please. Yes, go ahead, sister.
Oh,
you're live you can go ahead your question.
Just a small Marmolada
And
the message I want to give that
our resolution for the new years should be that in any circumstances even somebody put a knife on our neck. We don't give up on salah. And we don't get
like, we don't leave Salah on in any circumstances. Yeah.
That should be our main message. Sure. Okay. Was that a question?
Hello? Yeah. Did you ask me a question? I just want to let everybody because the mom was and the way he gave his life for the sake of Islam. Right. Right. Right. Right. Okay. When somebody puts a knife on our back, we don't give up. Okay, it's clear. Thank you, Sister, Bartok. Alavi, your point
is kind of clear. I'll get something from that shot Italia. Any more calls? Okay, Michelle. Okay, we've got someone on WhatsApp. Okay. Mashallah, we do a lot of questions today so far. In the last panel, bless you all. So the first question through the telephone calls, our brother has been making dua for many years. Okay. That includes many people actually. So but don't you shouldn't feel alone in this issue where people are making dua for many things or different things. And it's, you've been making dua for many years, and it hasn't happened in the way that you want it so far. So you're not alone in this. Okay. There are many, many people like this. Next part of the question is, am I doing
something wrong? Is it because of my sins? What is the situation because you know, maybe, because you're making dua, and you're calling upon Allah as you did for so long and it hasn't happened?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
Is there something wrong with me, you're getting worse. So now, answering this question
is, first of all, you're doing the right thing. And that is you ask Allah subhanaw taala. You don't ask anybody you ask Allah subhanaw taala Allah, Allah, Allah says in the Quran, we'll call our Komodo Rooney, a stage of local and your Lord has said, Ask me, and I will answer you call upon me and I will answer you so you're doing exactly exactly the right thing, inshallah to Allah, by calling and making dua to Allah subhanaw taala. The second thing is that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam told us
that when you make dua, when you call upon Allah subhanaw taala, no doubt Allah subhanaw taala he is your supplication. Absolutely, no doubt as a Muslim, we know that.
But Allah subhanaw taala may answer your supplication in different ways.
There are times when your supplication is answered in the way that you want it. So you ask for something and Allah Allah, Allah gives it to you the way you want it. There are times when Allah subhanaw taala saves, that what you're asking for in terms of goodness, and they we assume that you ask him for some form of goodness, that Allah subhanaw taala will save that for you on a day when you most need it. Okay, so there's a delay in your own string of that supplication. Or maybe that what you're asking for isn't actually not good for you. There's some harm in it, but you don't know. Okay? So therefore Allah subhanaw taala turns away that what you are asking for, okay, so, we all
sin brother SubhanAllah. And we all ask Allah Subhan Allah Allah for forgiveness, and we do this all the time. Okay. The best of us are those who ask Allah subhanaw taala for forgiveness. So do not allow the shutdown to come to you and say, Oh, you're a bad person. That's why Allah azza wa jal is not answering your your supplication. Okay? The statement of aroma Radi Allahu Anhu he said what I take it as an responsibility upon my shoulders is for me to do the asking. Okay, the answering, I leave that to Allah subhanaw taala Okay, so if for the rest of all of our lives, we are calling upon Allah subhanaw taala and that worldly thing I don't get I said Hamdulillah. You know, I know Allah's
plan is the best plan. If I don't get it now. Allah's plans are saving something good for me or protecting me from some form of harm. So we never despair. Because that's what the shaitaan wants you to do is to give up asking Allah subhanaw taala See, you've been asking for 10 years, asking for 10 years, okay. We look at the prophets, Allah him salatu salam. You know, if we look at Zachary Ali salaam Ibrahim Al Rahim Salam, they will making dua for many years to have children and they had children very late in their lives. They never gave up though, in making dua to Allah subhanaw taala and this is the fashion this is the way that we should follow in Shara Taylor. So never give up.
Never be in a state of despair. Always have hope in Allah subhanaw taala that whatever comes your way, whatever happens is the best plan. Allahu Allah, Allah Allah.
Then, our sister called also speaking about Masha Allah a very important point about the issue of Salah prayer.
It is the first thing that we are going to be asked about on Yama, TM. And if your prayer is
Good, everything that follows will be good. If it is not so good, then that what follows will also be in the same way not so good. And she mentioned Al Hussein, Radi Allahu Anhu has certainly been an ally. Or the Allahu Anhu woman, who was, as we know, martyred in this month of Muharram because we're talking about the month of Muharram we've been sisters, and he was martyred Radi Allahu Allah and the grandson of the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, on the 10th of Muharram. And this no doubt was a great mercy but a great calamity that befell the Ummah at this time, where he Radi Allahu anhu, along with a number of members of the household of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam all martyred and we ask Allah subhanaw taala to raise their daughter jet to raise their status and their levels as shahada as martyrs. Allahumma Amin
but the point being that regardless, whatever the situation is, you never leave the prayer. Okay, whatever circumstance or situation that you are in, that you never leave the prayer, because this was from the last
piece of advice and commands from the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam before he passed away SallAllahu Sallam is to establish the prayer. We ask Allah subhanaw taala to make us from those who established the prayer in the way that he SallAllahu wasallam taught us Allahumma Amin now
Okay shall is a few WhatsApp questions, which I wish to also mentioned within an italic to go through.
So now Salam Alaikum Shaka, please let me know which door I can make for the sacred days of Muharram.
Right? Well, I don't know of any specific dua that you make during the days of Muharram.
The month as I was mentioned in the beginning of the show, this is a month which
the Prophet sallallahu Sallam told us that the most beloved fasting to Allah subhanaw taala after Ramadan is the month of Muharram. So the Muslims should try to fast in this particular month, okay, there's no specific dua. Okay, well, our item concerning
concerning Muharram but actions Yes, you should increase your fasting, especially the tense. Okay. The Prophet alayhi salatu salam, that before he made the Hijra
that the people of Makkah, they used to fast the 10th of Mahatma okay. And this is something that was passed down from the MILA or the way of Ibrahim alayhi salatu salam.
They followed way through that and fasting this particular day was known.
Then when the Prophet alayhi salam, when he went to El Medina made the hedgerow he commanded the people to to fast the tents of Mahara.
And this was made an obligation to fast until the verses of
in Surah, Al Baqarah Evalina I'm gonna code for article Masurian, the ayat verses of fasting came down. And so the obligation of Ramadan appeared, and that then the Prophet SAW Selim said concerning the 10th of Muharram, that whoever wishes to fast the 10th Then let him fast and whoever wishes to break his fast let him do so. So became a recommended day, which was previously an obligation okay. So, we know that the prophet is
encouraged us to fast the 10th of Malhotra. Now,
also, we should bear in mind that the Prophet alayhi salam did not fast any one complete month except Ramadan. Okay, so the Prophet alayhi salam did not fast all of Shaban know that he Salah Salem fast all of haram. Okay, but increasing the fast in these two particular months other than Ramadan is highly recommended, as we know, in the authentic hadith on that issue.
Another important issue is that the Prophet alayhi wa salam, when he came to Medina, he saw some of the hodl Kitab fasting this day. So the Prophet was surprised as to why these people fasting the 10th then they replied that they believe this is the day and they know that this is the day nudge Allahu Musa Metatron This is the day that Allah subhanaw taala saved Musa from around here the Prophet saw some said Nana haka, how could be Musa minimum, we have more right to Musa than them. Therefore, if I was to live to the next year,
that I would fast the night. Okay. Now, the scholars have different opinion as concerning fasting, the 10th of Muharram and the ninth, what is the best thing to do? Who said that the best thing for the Muslim to do and he has two choices, you've asked the 10th
or you can include along with it, the ninth and the 10th. Okay. So this is what the prophets are sending us. Again, we don't want to confuse the people but confuse ourselves over the issue. You can force the tense alone if you want, okay, but you can also force the ninth and the 10th. The ninth and the 10th, as we found is one of the understandings that the Prophet SAW Selim said that he
He would do but as we know that the professor had passed away before he was able to do that okay
then durations concerning fasting you know day before and or day after you know some of those some weakness in those narrations but if a person wants to fast then is permitted for them you can't say you cannot fast okay? Because it will all come under in general fasting the month or increasing your fast in the month of Mahatma okay so the very least that you're going to do is fast the 10th question mark now when is that okay that's next Monday China Thailand next Monday will be the 10th of Muharram okay so plan for inshallah you can fast maybe Sunday and Monday, contrast Sunday and Monday and the fact that the 10th is on a Monday this is also a good fast to do on a Monday this is
the practice of the prophets I seldom fasting Mondays and Thursdays. So you have a double intention inshallah Tada to fast as the day of Muharram.
And also, it falls on a Monday which is also has its virtue as well. Okay. So these are some of the points we wanted to mention concerning the month of Muharram. There are other things to mention as well. But this is a q&a show, not a lecture show. So we'll go through some of the questions you've posted as well. You shall not have to either.
If I want to attend the masjid every day for one Salah in congregation can my wife stop me?
I sense there is something there's something else going on.
Beyond this.
There's some issues between yourselves because number one, why would the wife ever want her husband not to pray in the masjid?
And secondly,
you know, the husband why you feel you have to ask somebody, you know, my wife, you know, stopping me to go to the masjid.
You know, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam told the men you're not allowed to stop the women going to the masjid. Okay. And you know, sisters are not obliged to pray in the congregational prayer at all. But nonetheless the prophets are certain do not prevent EMA or law massage or the law do not prevent the female servants of Allah subhanaw taala attending the Masjid. Okay. As for the men was completely different. They should attend the Masjid. Okay. So nobody has the right to stop you going to the masjid. Okay, nobody has the right to stop you going to the masjid? If there's some other issues that are happening, okay. That obviously may have been made clear here.
But it is not necessarily in dealing with the situation to say rocket This is what the you know, the so and so said on the TV I'm not listening to you know, you should have a communication and make each other understand the Islamic position first and foremost. As to you know, you shouldn't stop a person going to the house of Allah subhanaw taala. And you mentioned just going once a day
there's some other issues of course, you should get further advice. But in principle, nobody should stop you from going to the masjid Walter, I had
another question to Chris, quick question about sleeping if your bed is in a position where your feet are pointing towards the stapler? Is this haram?
No, it's not haram. No. And in fact that there's no issue. If you go to sleep in whatever position that you are sleeping the Prophet sallallaahu Selim I think from the Sahaba i as well, that if you slept in your feet are facing triplets. It's not a problem. Okay. The Prophet Addison Salam told us not to sleep on our stomachs. There's narrations concerning that. There's also integrations that you can, it's recommended for you to sleep in a state of order for you to sleep on your right side. These are
some pieces of guidance that were given to us by the Prophet alayhi salam concerning the position of sleep. But there's no such thing as Oh, don't put your feet towards people that because this is disrespectful to the cab.
I understand where people are coming from that they believe that this is a form of disrespect but it is not it's not form a form of disrespect is not seen that way. The person any Muslim would surely not intend such a thing. So there's not a problem in sha Allah Allah and Allah subhanaw taala and as best
I heard from Nigeria kindly said right for me so Allah Subhana Allah can provide for me to get married inshallah Taylor. Well, first and foremost, foremost, Brother, you are the one that needs to make your own. I'm sure that you are doing that you ask Allah subhanaw taala. For a pious spouse, you know exactly what you're looking for. So you ask Allah Allah Allah for that.
And also I asked Allah potentially to grant you that what is best to grant you a pious spouse and all those who are in a situation where they're looking for a pious spouse whether it's a brother or sister anywhere in the world. I asked that last panel Tality to grow into that what is best mean?
Okay, my close family members are telling my young children my past sins. As a result they are being rebellious. What can I do apart from making dua and reciting garrafa protection has to be alone and they were killed
in nearly low in illegal
You know, anything are first and foremost the cutting of ties or those things which would lead to rebellion within a household is absolutely categorically haram. Law us
and the people who are responsible for such actions will stand in front of Allah subhanho wa taala. For such things, it took Allah fate Allah subhanaw taala in causing such rebellion in one's home, specifically between a parent and children,
I cannot imagine, I cannot think what goes through a person's mind that would lead them to cause such a rift and to cause rebellion in a home where the children then start to disrespect one's own parents.
If you are responsible for that, if you do not fix it, your Toba alone just Oh ALLAH forgive me without fixing it may not be enough for you. Because you have caused such harm to others that you need to rectify that issue.
So
none of us are free from any sin. And if a person did have a history, if a person did have a past, which involved some sin,
then if they have repented, we ask Allah subhanaw taala to accept their repentance. And may Allah subhanaw taala cover their sins cover their past, if they're making
an effort to improve the situation. Okay, I'm talking about in any normal, you know, general situation here, okay. If you're talking about, well, I have a justification to bring up somebody's sins. Well, I cannot think of any reason. But if you feel that there's a justification take it to the people have knowledge that they can discuss these issues, because there's already some confusion here, why you think that you can do that. But in any case, any normal case not allowed for you to bring up the past
of another individual, which then leads to the splitting of a family member.
This is a calamity, an absolute calamity, that occurs between or in a life of an individual, that how will you face ALLAH SubhanA wa ala that you have said or given information and spread around that has led to the splitting or the rebellion within a family
this needs to be resolved, ASAP, as soon as possible. And those who are involved need to repent to Allah subhanaw taala immediately and whatever damage has been done, they need to work double hard to rectify that.
Because this is a very dangerous situation for a person who is involved in such a situation, as a lot of Osama al Afia. May Allah subhanaw taala ask for protection and, and forgiveness in such an issue.
So we ask Allah subhanaw taala to guide them all, and allow them to have a solution and find a resolution as quick as they can to ensure that the children then once again respect to their parents.
Allah and Mustang allaahu Mustang. Okay. Well, as we're coming sisters, we're coming towards the end of this particular show. But as I was mentioning, first half of the show, I should say
when the month of Muharram, and that next Monday in sha Allah, Allah will be the 10th. So it's highly recommended for us to foster that month. And that that we know that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I hope that it will be an explanation for the previous years since SubhanAllah. So too fast one day, the 10th of Muharram insha, Allah to Allah will be a clearance of all of your minor sins for one whole year. And this of course, subhanAllah, just as we Charlotte, Allah fostered the yoke of Arafa, the year before and the year coming. The year of fasting the day of Muharram is also for the year.
In the past, a person may say, Well, I've already got out of the bank, you know, I forced it out of us, I've got yours the previous year sins.
forgiven, and next year, okay. So you know, Muharram, we can put that on the back burner, I've already got other fire in the bank. If a person speaks like this, and has this attitude, it means that they're taking the risk this situation very, very likely. And who knows, even if you're fasting was even accepted, okay? There's no guarantee for you. Therefore, every opportunity that passes your way, you take that in sha Allah, may Allah Allah Allah guide us toward what is best. Please join us after the break, brother and sisters we will continue with your questions. Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh Yeah, are you ready?
