Sitting on a chair and performing Salaah

Submitted by admin on Tue, 2015-06-02 07:13

Q: I am 50 years old. I have been making namaaz regularly in the musjid daily all my life and for the past year or so. I make namaaz at home and only jumah in the musjid. This is due to chronic pain in my feet, toes and legs and I can't bend my toes anymore hence I sit on a chair when I make namaaz. I only go for jumah and don't sit on a chair at jumah. I make the two rakaat fard of jumah normal though I go through great pain. As soon as the fard is over I leave the musjid instantly. My great worry is that recently I read that we can't sit and make namaaz. The article read beware of the chair and stay away from the chair as namaaz on a chair is not accepted. I am in deep worry and cry a lot daily. I am unable to go for treatment to a private doctor or hospital as I am a pauper. I cannot go to government hospitals as every person I know with feet problems like mines land up with operations in the government hospitals but either loose their legs or land up with their feet being worse. I don't drink nor smoke. I strictly eat halaal food and live a clean life but still have this problem. I want to know if all my namaaz I made sitting is baatil. Yesterday I put pads around my feet and legs and attempted namaaz standing but the pain extends to my back. I am not cripple nor old aged and have no sickness so old age is not an excuse. Kindly advise what to do as I am unable to go for treatment so this pain becomes worse hence I will be sitting and makng namaaz.

Sunnah method of ghusal

Submitted by admin on Mon, 2015-06-01 15:56

Q: Is this the correct method of ghusul? First do niyyah, then wash hands up to wrist three times, then gargle three times, then wash the private areas. Perform wudhu like normal, pour water over the head three time and recite kalima, then wipe off water from right shoulder three times then left? I have been using this method.

Rajab and Sha'baan dua

Submitted by admin on Mon, 2015-06-01 15:40

Q: Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) made this dua from Rajab. Allahumma baarik lana fee rajab wa shabaan wa ballighnaa ramadaan. When the month of shabaan commenced did he drop of the word rajab and only mentioned shaabaan? If not, will it be better to stick to the actual words of the hadith or recite only shabaan as many people are doing including imaams of musjids?

Weaning of the child before going for Hajj

Submitted by admin on Mon, 2015-06-01 15:35

Q: I have recently found out I'm pregnant Alhamdullilah and I have also applied for hajj for the next year. I realise it's not guaranteed that I'll be accepted with the long lists. My in-law's have told me to stop breastfeeding my child at an early age (8 months) and put him on a bottle so they can look after him if we are accepted for next year (2016). I am very unhappy about doing that, but I also know how difficult it is to get accepted for Hajj with the current system. What would be the best solution to this?
