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?
Q: Never does anybody leave something for the sake of Allah but Allah will give him something better in exchange.
What is the Meaning of the above? Does it mean that If one leaves his family and goes to jamat or other deeni cause then Allah will reward with some better reward? Or does it mean that if one leaves out haraam act or food then one will receive better than that for the sacrifice one makes? Please can you clarify?
Q: I had heard an Islamic lecture saying that a sinful woman will take four males i.e. her father, brother, husband and son along with her to hell because they did not stop her from committing sin. But is it not that every individual is responsible for their own deeds. And Allah (SWT) will not punish or reward an individual because of the deeds done by others?
Q: I have presented three hadith regarding the parents of Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). Also at the bottom I have presented some opinions which show good news. Which is correct?
Q: I always meet this one uncle who I sometimes sit and talk with. He is just over 80 years of age. He wanted to know if there is any Hadith or mention in Qur'an about Almighty Allah being more merciful and forgiving to someone who reaches the age of 90 or any old age. He said he did ask some Imaam before but he still never got an answer so I said I will try my best to find out for him and let him know.
Q: Is it true that if you read Surah ikhlaas 200 times, you will get the benefit of 500 years of prayer?
Q:
1. I have read whoever memorizes the first ten verses from Surah Kahf, he will be protected from the trials of Dajjaal. People say a person who recites Surah Kahf on a Friday will be protected from the trials of Dajjaal, is this correct and mentioned in the Hadith?
2. I have read whoever reads Surah Kahf on Friday, it will act as a light for him from one Friday to the next. I wanted to know by reading Surah Kahf on a Friday will it be a protection as well from one Friday to the next, is this mentioned in the Hadith?
Q: My question is about Durood-e-ebraheem. The Quran states in Surah Ahzab (33) Verse 56 صلّوا عليه وسلِّموا, but Durood-e-ebraheem only contains the صلّوا part and not the سلِّموا part. Instead it says اللهم بارك. Can you shed some light on this matter?
Q: Regarding these two hadiths:
1. “He who has a morning meal of seven ‘ajwa dates will not suffer harm that day through toxins or magic.” (Bukhari, Hadith 5327 and Muslim, Hadith 3814)
2. ‘Aisha reported Allah’s Messenger as saying, “The ‘ajwah dates of al-‘Aliya contain healing, and they are an antidote (when taken as) first thing in the morning.” (Muslim, Hadith 3815)
You said that it has to be taken first thing on an empty stomach in the morning, when does morning end Islamically? My question is if I had a late night dinner near fajr time a few hour before fajr time, if my stomach is still full at fajr time then is it still okay to eat the dates provided thats the first thing eaten during fajr time? Also the hadith from Bukhari says in general that the ajwa dates should be eaten at morning time, it doesn't specify it to be taken as the first thing, so does it have to be the first thing taken or as long as it's taken (before or after eating in the morning) it's okay?
Q: Please send the conversation between the Prophet Muhammed (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and Jibraeel (Alayhis Salaam) where the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) asks jibrael (Alayhis Salaam) about his age.
