Q: There is a book I read called "100 stories of Hazrat Aaishah (radhiyallahu anha) by Mufti Afzal Hoosen Elias".
One of the chapters that sparked my curiosty was "Her concern for the Aakhirah" It was about how she was overcome by the Surah At Toor aayat 27. The translation of the ayat is: "However, Allah has favoured us and saved us from the punishment of the scorching wind."
The book stated that she was so overcome by this aayat that she kept on reciting it repeatedly, weeping more each time. I want to know a little more about this aayat (tafseer), why was it so powerful that it made her weep so much?
Q: When in jamaat, I heard this story being narrated in the bayaans often, under the quality of salaah. The story is as follows:
A Sahaabi (radhiyallahu anhu) had no food in his home. He then went to the masjid and read 2 rakaats of salaah and returned home. He found that there was still no food, and then returned to the masjid to read another 2 rakaats of salaah and returned again to still find no food. For the third time he done this. On his return after the third time, he found that the mill was producing flour on its own. He filled all the containers in his home, and then opened the mill and it stopped making flour.
When he reported the incident to Rasoolullaah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam), Rasoolullaah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) told him that if he did not open the mill, it would have continued making flour until the day of qiyaamah.
I want to find out if the above story is authentic.
Q: Can you please clear my doubts. The Quraan was sent down in Arabic to Nabi Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), so was there a chance that the verses of the Quraan were misunderstood by the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu anhum) and the Arabs during the time of revelation?
Q: Is it true that the Sahaabi Abdullah bin Zubair (radhiyallahu anhuma) performed tawaaf of the Kabah while swimming?
Q: I have learnt that Sayyiduna Uthman (Radiallahu 'Anhu) used to recite the whole Quraan Shareef in Tahajjud Salaah. If one takes 5 minutes to properly recite a 1/4 para and hence 20 minutes per para then it takes 600 minutes (10 hours) to recite the whole Quraan Shareef. Since the night is not always 10 hours long, does it mean that Sayyiduna Uthman (Radiallahu 'Anhu) recited a para in less than 20 minutes?
Q: Is there any narration which explains that Amir bin Rabiah affected Saeed bin khuraif by the gaze?
Q: After the demise of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), I was told that if the men needed advice they used to consult with Hazrat Aaishah (radhiyallahu anha) through a veil. Is this true?
Q: What was the age of Hazrat Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu anhu) at the time of acceptance of Islam?
Q: What is the meaning and explanation of the following sentence: "Hazrat Umar (radhiyallahu anhu) apni sakht tabiyat ke bawajood farmate he ke: Mard ko apni beewi ke saath bachche ki tarah rahna chahiye, phir jab us ke pass us cheez ko talash kiya jaye jo uske pass he to wo nazar aaye"
