Utterances of kufr

11 years ago By admin

Q: If a muslim attributes to himself an other religion by saying, for example, "I am a Jews" or "I am a Christian" or "the christian are better than muslim in aqida". Does such a person become a kafir even if he uttered the statement jokingly and even if he did not know that it is kufr to say such a thing?

Father in-law taking away the mahr

11 years ago By admin

Q: I am asking this question on behalf of my sister. She got married from two years now and alhamdulillah she is blessed with a girl baby. The problem is she was given 110 ounce of gold as maher. Her father in law is a bad person who has even tried to break their relationship for his personal intrest. In fact he has ego problem. Now he is holding the maher and says its given from my earnings not his sons. My brother in law is now trying to move from house but his father is not helping him financially though he is rich. Kindly let me know what is the status of maher in this situation. 

Cooperating in sin

11 years ago By admin

Q: I am a Muslim that reverted back to Islam and have some questions that may aid me in being able to get on with my life. I can no longer pay rent on my housing association rented flat. A housing association staff member told me that they are going to deliver a letter asking for a payment and that after they have given me the letter I will then have 14 days to pay them some money and the member of staff told me if I do not pay them anything by the end of the 14 days they will then want to evict me from the flat.

I ask if you will answer the questions I have typed below. If you answer any of them, please can you give answers that include proofs from the Qur'an and also explain the reasoning behind any answers given, - I want to be sure that I live a halal life and that I do not have any doubts or annoyance of Shaitans whispers telling me that I am or might be committing a sin (when I am not even committing a sin) or telling me I have been given mistakenly false information about what is/isn’t a sin (when the information I have been given is good information)

Questions:

  1. What is your definition of cooperating in someone’s sin and transgression?
  2. What is your definition of riba?
  3. If every £pound that was made, was made and given in an agreement that agreed that the cost of making the pound and also an amount of (harem) interest would be charged for the pound, would that in your opinion mean that all £pounds would be haram to use?
  4. If these £pounds were haram, would it also mean in your opinion that using these types of pounds, would be cooperating in the sin and transgression of the £pound monetary system?
  5. If the £pound monetary system was made/designed to cripple/entrap the public/world into being slaves/weakened/controlled -in your opinion would that mean that using the £pound monetary system that would be aimed at making the public suffer be cooperating in the £pound monetary system makers/enforcers sin and transgression?
  6. In your opinion Would it be haram to trade in casino chips, if you was not gambling? (i.e. someone gives a shop keeper £10s worth of casino chips to pay for his shopping and the shop keeper then gives a different (agreeable) customer £10 in casino chips as change)
  7. What is your definition of usury?
  8. In your opinion is it only halal for us to charge for are physical/mental labour? (i.e. the labour of building a wall, the labour of giving a speech, the labour of thinking of a design/idea)
  9. Also I was wondering about eating and drinking. Does Allah dislike us to eat and drink in excess? if someone could survive from eating maybe 2-3 handfuls of food and a small bottle of water each day, would eating and drinking more than that be an excess  -would we be able to rely on Allah for energy?


I remember hearing someone talk about someone that was pious and the person that was telling me about this pious boy said something like: when he drank water you could see the water travelling down his throat, he consumed little to please Allah...

Should we try to follow the NHS recommended daily intake guidelines who suggest about 2500 calories for males per day, 2.5 litres of fluid a day (from drinks and from food) and recommended five portions of fruit and veg a day an amount of Vitamins and minerals from food etc. or would what the NHS say be an atheist environment type of view and be an excess amount of food/fluid?

I remember in an Islamic educational event about the sole, the Sheikh said their was a man who said he can live without food/water and that tests were done to see if he was truthful and he appeared to go without food and water for the amount of time they isolated him.

Q: I wanted to know how to control nafs and I ended up in a site which tells you how to kill it permanently. But I have doubts concerning them. I dont know if it is permissible or not to do this kind of wazifa. The site is www.wazifas.com and I was searching for  http://www.wazifas.com/how-to-kill-your-nafs.php Can you read them and tell me if I can do these wazifa. Even my parents are confused. We have never heard about these things before. if it is not permisssible, can you tell me how to control your nafs and desires?
