Taking one's work break in Salaah time

Submitted by admin on Sat, 2013-09-07 08:57

Q: I would like to know if there is any labour law that states that an employee is allowed to take his or her breaks at work when it is Salaah times eg. @1pm for Zuhr then Asr, Maghrib & Esha & for the month of Ramadaan do we as muslims have the right to not work compulsory late shifts in this month in order for us to be able to perform our Tarawih Salaah. I work in a call centre enviroment & our break times are always scheduled to us out of Salaah times & some weeks we have to work late shifts from 11am to 8pm & early from 7am to 4:30pm & we are restricted to take our breaks together. I am always making my salaah past the time. I really feel very depressed when I am at work or at home for this very reason & it really eats on me all the time especially when I have heard so many talks & read many books about one who neglects his or her Salaah & yet I am still continuing to do this very sinful act over & over for so the 6 years that I am working here. Please Mufti saab I would really like you to help me & other muslims at work.

Q: Are Hanafi's allowed to pray this Tashahhud:

التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلَّهِ وَالصَّلَوَاتُ وَالطَّيِّبَاتُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عِبَادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِين. أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ.

Sunnats of Zuhr

Submitted by admin on Sat, 2013-09-07 07:25

Q:

  1. It comes in the Hadith about zuhr sunnats that time the heavens are open. Does that mean we should read our zuhr sunnats immediately after zuhr time begins to get this virtue. 
  2. How do you work out zuhr begining time? When is zawaal how long before zuhr? If zuhr starts at 1:12. Can you read nafl at 1:00. If zuhr starts at 1:12, can you read sunnats after Azaan? I heard you should wait 5 minutes. Why is that?
  3. Sun rising, setting and zawaal you can't read anything. Can you bury someone at that time?

Sunnats of Zuhr, Esha and Jumua

Submitted by admin on Thu, 2013-09-05 06:41

Q:

  1. Is there any Hadith which mentions four sunnah before ishaa, the nawafil after zuhr and ishaa and also the two nafil after the witr.
  2. Before jumua' are the four sunnats muakadah?  And after Jumma the six sunnats should one read four first or two first? I read in a book that Allamah Anwar ​Sha Kashmiri's view was two then four. What is the daleel for two nafil after Jumua'?
  3. Is it sunnah to read Ayatul Kursi after every Salaah?
