  1. Is bull racing or horse riding wrong in an islamic view.
    السلام عليكم
    باسمه تعالى
    Traditional bull and horse racing consists the elements of interest and gabling. Participants pay racing fees with the intention of wining the race and getting more than the submitted fees which is Ribaa and they go through the situation of win or lose which is gambling. Therefore, the traditional bull and horse racing is not permitted. However, every game which consists religious benefit or worldly gain such as mental or physical exercise or useful knowledge and horse racing is permissible itself. The Nabee of Allaahﷺ is reported to have said, “Practice archery and horseback riding.” (Sahih Muslim) Ibn ‘Umar رضی اللہ عنہreported that the Nabee of Allaah ﷺorganized horse races and gave a prize to the winner.” (Musnad Ahmad).

    May Allah reward you gretaly for this Noble work, Insha Allah.

    There has been recently an increase in women judges been appointed in the Arab world. Is this accetable in Shariah? Were there any such situations during the time of our prophet SAW and the 4 righly guided.

    A Qaazi, judge has to go out, sit with men, witnesses and parties in lawsuit whereas a woman cannot work in judiciary with observing Shari’ee Hijaab and discharging her household responsibilities. Therefore, no woman has ever been appointed as a Qaazi during the life time of the beloved Nabeeﷺ, at the time of four rightly guided Khulafaa رضى الله عنهمor during the period Tabi’een and those who succeededرحمهم الله تعالى, as mentioned in ‘Al-Mughnee’. Imaam Bukhari رحمه الله تعالىhas recorded that on hearing the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their queen, the Nabee of Allaahﷺ said, “Never will succeed such a nation who makes a woman their ruler.” (Saheeh Al-Bukhari, Kitabul-Fitan)

    It is the consensus of the all classical Islaamic jurists that a woman can not be appointed as a governor of a state nor can she be a Qaazi. (Sharhussunnah Lill-Baghawi, Kitaabul Imarah Wal Qazaa)

    However, if a woman has been appointed a Qaazi then her judgment will be accepted and valid in cases other than criminal ones though the people who have appointed her will be sinful. (Raddul Mukhtaar Alddurril Mukhtaar, Kitaabul Qaza, Matlabun Fee Qazaail Qaazi Bi-Ilmih, Ahkaamul Qur’aan Li-Ibnil-Arabi Al-Maliki, Surah Al-Namal)

    May Allah reward you gretaly for this Noble work, Insha Allah.

    I busy with some research for a course that I am doing and would like mufti sahebs assistance regarding the following: If a person marrys more than the maximum of 4 at one time, is he committing zina when sleeping with wife number 5. If he is resident in an Islamic state what form of punishment can a Qazi impose? Would it be Hudud, Qisas or Tazir?

    Shukran
    Wa alaykumus Salaam
    If the indicidual marries more than 4, then we will look to his intention. If he did it in total disregard of shariah with knowledge of more then four being haraam or did he do it in ignorance. Both cases will be dealt differebtly.
    The first case falls in the category of irtidaad and will be dealt likewise by the qaadhi.
    in the second instance where he thinks it permissible, then ttaa zeer will be given . The reason for it is that he thought it permissible(although wrong) and nikaah was made. For hadd to be applied there is no room for doubt allowed.the conditions of the hadd has alsoto be fulfilled.Doubt is created because of the nikah which allows relationship between the spouses. Thererfore no hadd.

  5. Asalamu-Alaykum dear Mufti,

    I wanted to know something about social conduct in Islam. If someone had made some mistakes in the past, but has sincerely repented and changed their whole life around for Allah SWT, then no one has the right to judge them right?

    In other words, doesn’t it say somewhere in Hadiths,etc. that no one should bring up a person’s former state (like how they were before)? because I do know that before some people embraced Islam, they weren’t perfect, and they changed their ways after repenting and returning to Allah. So, no one has the right to bring up the past of a person, even if they know how they were before right, because shouldn’t people realize how they have changed instead of looking at their past mistakes?

    I hope to hear from you soon. And, also could you inform me of something where it actually says something similar to this in Hadiths, etc.?

    Jazakamullahu-Khair.
    wa alaykumusSalaam
    The acceptance of Islaam wipes out all previous sins. similarily toubah and repentance wipes out all previous sins when done sincerely.Those who harp on issues of the past of an individual who has repented is actually involved in a grave sin. Islaam teaches us that to speak of the evils of a person behind his back is regarded as backbiting ang if they speak of things he did not do then they are slandering. While they are doing this they are actually giving you their good deeds.In surah hujuraat verse no 12 ALLAH mentions about the issue of backbiting and seeking faults of others (as explained by Sayyidina ibn abbas radhyiyallaahu anhumma in his tafseer:-
    { يٰأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ ٱجْتَنِبُواْ كَثِيراً مِّنَ ٱلظَّنِّ إِنَّ بَعْضَ ٱلظَّنِّ إِثْمٌ وَلاَ تَجَسَّسُواْ وَلاَ يَغْتَب بَّعْضُكُم بَعْضاً أَيُحِبُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَن يَأْكُلَ لَحْمَ أَخِيهِ مَيْتاً فَكَرِهْتُمُوهُ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ تَوَّابٌ رَّحِيمٌ }

    (O ye who believe) in Muhammad (pbuh) and the Qur’an! (Shun much suspicion) this was revealed about two Companions of the Prophet (pbuh) who backbit Salman al-Farisi and also thought ill of Usamah, the Servant of Allah’s Messenger (pbuh). They spied on him to see whether Usamah did really have what the Prophet (pbuh) asked him to give to them. Allah therefore forbade them from having a bad opinion about others, as well as from suspicion and spying; and so He said: O you who believe in Muhammad (pbuh) and the Qur’an, shun much suspicion about your brother’s ins and outs (for lo! some suspicion is a crime) for some ill thoughts and what you hide are sins; this is what the two men thought of Usamah. (And spy not) and do not scrutinise the faults of your brother, nor reveal that which Allah has concealed about him; and this is exactly what the two men did, (neither backbite one another) the two backbit Salman. (Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother) unlawfully without any necessity? (Ye abhor that (so abhor the other)) you deem eating the flesh of a carrion unlawful unless it is out of necessity, consider backbiting your brother likewise! (And keep your duty (to Allah)) fear Allah regarding backbiting anyone. (Lo! Allah is Relenting) Allah forgives whoever repents of backbiting, (Merciful) towards whoever die repentant.

  7. asalamalaykum, what is the opinion on talking about others’ lives, even in general? is it better to not speak about others, as many people do not prefer to be talked about despite it being general. is there anywhere where it says that we should only worry about our ownselves and not others?
    Wa alaykumus salaam
    I pose a question to those who habe idol time to discuss others problems, Dont you have enough of your own worries to concern yourself with the sorrows of others?> Also are you aware what is ghibat (backbiting) and what constitutes backbiting? Ghibat and backbiting is speaking of the issues of others that they dislike to be disclosed to others.The punishment of ghibat is great and is equated in the qur’aan with eating the dead flesh of your muslim brother/sister.

    abhi tak mene masjid ke liye nhi lagae to kya me apni neeyat badal sakti hu ? kya me money zaroorat mando ko de sakti hu
    JAZAK ALLAH
    Wa alaykumus Salaam
    Since you are versant in english i will answer you in english. If you intended giving the money for the building of a masjid then i would encourage you ti fulfill your intentions.in a hadeeth it is mentioned that whoever builds a masjid in this world for the pleasure of ALLAH , ALLAH will reward him with a house in Jannah.
    Monies contributed to the building of a masjid is nrmally from lillaah sources and the poor should be given from zakaat which is fardh.Therefore it will be better to fulfill your intention and if you wish give the poor from your zakaat.

  11. sir agar me apni neeyat badaldu apni intention change kardu to muje is me koi gunah to nhi hoga

  12. asalam u alykum. My question is on behalf of my father. he has 2 sons and 2 daughters. the eldest is married and has been for 14years, the youngest lives at home, single and supports the dad along with the daughters. My father needs to write a will and this is where the problem lies. He understands that estate has to be spilt equally amongst the boys and then the girls however he is afraid to leave anything to the eldest. Reasons being for the last 14years his actions and behaviour has highlighted how little he cares for his parents, his sisters and brother. he is hotheaded and lacks maturity. he does not visit his parents, he does not call them and has not supported them financially, he cant even support his wife. when something does not go his way he forbods his children from visiting them.he is very mean and instantly kills people off from his circle and threatens divorce, beats to his wife and children if they disobey him. Father is afraid that after parents are gone he will cause much upset to his siblings and even split them up due top what he has shown them in the last 14yrs. they wpuld like to know can they leave what they would to him to his children instead or what other option is available. they have o doubt due to his personality he would also take away what is not his from his siblings. what options have they got.
    Wa alaykumus salaam
    All wealth that is left till death befalls its owner has to be distributed in accordance to shariah and the meeraath rules. There can be no changes done to it by means of waseeyat for the other inheritors. However if the father wishes to give more to the others he may do so by making them owners of what he wishes to grant them in his lifetime.This is the only method of doing it. Whatever remains will then be distributed as per shariah ruling.

    respected scholar i have been married for 4 years and we live in a joint family system. i m having so many problems with my in -laws. we live in the same house but don’t talk to each other. i do all the house work still they are not happy. so many more things going on all the time.whatever my husband earns his mother takes it from him and she has never given me a penny from his salary. she likes to rule the house and whenever i do something for myself she has problem with that (i.e i can’t eat what i want to eat, but her own children can eat whatever they want)my husband knows what is going on in the
    house but he ignores it becaus he respects his mother. i have no problem with that all i had asked him to do was to keep me in my own separate house and he can afford it. it is my right. but he does not listen. a friend of mine told me about this wazeefa(ya badi ul ajaibi bilkhair e ya badi o) 1200 time for 12 days. can u please give me permission to do this wazeefa for my separate house. or can u tell me something else to do. please kazakaalah khair
    Wa alaykumus Salaam
    Sorry i cannot give you ijazah and permission for the said wazeefah as i do not know it nor do i have permission for it. If your friend gave it to you then try it. I am not really in favour of giving of wazaaief to influence the thoughts of others. Yes i would encourage you to mke du’aa to ALLAH for all your needs for verily HE alone is he solver of all problems.

    respected scholars kindly furnish me details of
    1. under which circumstances jihad becomes obligatory.
    2.is is mandatory in islam to ask for permission from parents before leaving for jihad.
    3. what are the rules and regulations of jihad as per islam.
    4. if there are atrocities by the ruler, is jihad applicabe
    5. which one takes closer to Allah..nikah, haj or jihad.
    6. difference between jihad and jihad fi sabeelillah
    WA ALAYKUMUS SALAAM
    1. Jihaad is Fardh kifaayah. ( If a group upkeeps it then it will suffice but if none does it then all will be sinful). Yes if the enemy attack an enter islamic lands then it will obligatory for the people of the land to protect their possesions and save the respect of the womenfolk. It the people of the lnd are insufficient then it will be necessary for the adjacent muslims to aid them in their fight. It continues inthat manner till sufficient aid is provided. However it will be necessary for those far away to morally and financiaaly aid them in their struggle.
    2.Under normal circumstances it will be mandatory but under situation of occupation of the lands it will not be. Yes if the parents are not dependent on the individual , he may go in normal circumstances.
    3. Has been answered in 1.
    4.If the ruler is muslim and does these atrocities then it will be necessary to advise him to refrain from it. It will require the verdict of the scholars whether it will be compulsory or not. If we are living in a Non muslim country then iot will become necessary to make hujrat.
    5. Each of them are merituous. At times the one is given preference over the other dus to the circumstances If one is not near the area of jihad and he has not performed his fardh hajj as yet and has the means then hajj will be given preference. If there is a need of protecting your land and property when under attack then jihad takes preference.
    6. There is no real difference between the two..

    Brother your request of asking an Aamil on your behalf is impossible as they are commercial people who i do not see eye to eye with. In fact i discourage people from wearing of taaweez and also encourage them to read from qur’aan and the various wazaaif from the ahaadeeth. So i am sorry to tell you that your request cannot be fulfilled by me.
