Detail Article About Noor-e-Mohammadi (Salallaho Alaihi Wasallam) Qadi Iyad Qadi `Iyad said in his book al-Shifa', in the chapter on the nobility of the Prophet's lineage: " Ibn `Abbas said that the spirit of the Prophet was a light in front of Allah two thousand years before he created Adam. That light glorified Him and the angels glorified by his glorification. When Allah created Adam, he cast that light into his loins. " Imam Hafiz Suyuti said in Manahil al-Safa (p. 53 #128): "Ibn Abi `Umar al-`Adani relates it in his Musnad. " [I have seen this reference myself when I went to saudi arabia last year] In Takhrij ahadith sharh al-mawaqif (p. 32 #12) Imam Suyuti cites it with the wording: " The Quraysh were a light in front of Allah. " Ibn al-Qattan in his Ahkam (1:12) narrates it in the following form, although `Abd Allah al-Ghimari in Irshad al-talib rejects the latter as a forgery: [kuntu nooran bayna yaday Rabbee qabla khalqi Aadama bi arb...

The Historical Significance of ‘Ashura Mu’awiyah ibn Abu Sufyan (Radiyallahu 'anh) relates: I heard the Messenger of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) say: "It is the day of ‘Ashura. Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) has not made fasting obligatory for you. But I am fasting. He who likes to observe fast among you should do so, and he who likes not to observe it (does not have to) observe it." [Sahih Muslim] Abu Qatada (Radiyallahu 'anh) relates that the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu ‘alayhi wa Sallam) said that the fast on the 10th of Muharram atones for the sins of the preceding year. [Sahih Muslim] Abu Huraira (Radiyallahu 'anh) reports that the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu ‘alayhi wa Sallam) said that after Ramadan, the fasts of Muharram have the greatest excellence. [Sahih Muslim] Alhamdulillah, Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) has blessed us to see another year. The first month of this year is Muharram. In this month is an excellent day—the day of ‘Ashura—which falls on th...

Hakeem-ul-Ummat HAZRAT MUFTI AHMED YAAR KHAN NAEEMI NIKAH OR WEDDING The qualities that one should look for in a marriage partner are piety and God-fearing. Neither the boy nor the girl should be forced into a marriage. The bride�s mother�s consent is just as important. According to the Shari�ah it is necessary that when permission is being sought from the bride for marriage that the name of the bridegroom, his father�s name and the amount of Maher (dowry) be mentioned. Nikah only takes place when the bride accepts this. Some excuse should be made for the boy to see the girl without the girl�s knowledge. The Quran Shareef states: "The affairs according to the consultation amongst them." The elders of both parties should have a discussion concerning the forthcoming union so that in the event of a misunderstanding between the couple after marriage, their elders can help in resolving the matter. An engagement is not necessary. The purpose of an engagement is to confirm or promis...

Guide to Muslims - Islamic & Social Affairs Hakeem-ul-Ummat HAZRAT MUFTI AHMED YAAR KHAN NAEEMI BIRTH OF A CHILD It is generally found that people celebrate on the birth of a boy and show dissatisfaction when a girl is born. Islam disapproves of this kind of behavior. Children are great gift from Almighty Allah and we should be thankful and rejoice irrespective of the gender of the new-born child. The birth of a daughter is a blessing and the Prophet of Islam (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said that they would be a shield for the parents from Hell. It is stated in the Quran Shareef, Surah an-Nahl, Verse 58: "� when news is brought to one of them of the birth of a female child his face darkens, and he is filled with inward grief". This was the belief of the Kufaar prior to Islam. The woman that gives birth to a girl as her first child is indeed fortunate as the first born of the Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) was a girl. On the birth of a child, gifts or a...

Ans: It is recorded in Nisai' Shareef: "One who pushes up his beard, inform him that Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is disgusted with him." Q.27: Some people have a habit to lift their pants after Ruku and then go for Sajdah. What is the law of Shari'ah concerning such a practice? Ans: It is Makrooh.

Ans: No. It is not permissable! Q.29: Was Hajj Fard on all the Prophets? Ans: As far as Hajj being Fard on them, this Allah knows best, but various Prophets did perform Hajj. Once the noble Prophet, Sayyiduna Sulaiman (alaihis salaam) was sitting on his throne and his throne flew over the Holy Kaaba. The Holy Kaaba cried to Allah and said: "O Allah! A Prophet from Your Prophets and an army of Your ar...
