Women are not to fast during "the time of the month". For every fast they miss they MUST make up for it at a later date.

Women are not to offer Salah during "that time of the month", but DON'T have to make up for it at a later date.

The reason the rules are different for fasting than they are for Salah is because only about 7 fasts in a year are missed, but for Salahs it's over 400.

So it's easier to cover 7 missed fasts than it is to read 400 Salahs.

What moment would you go back to & why?

Imam Muhammad Baqir says that Imam Ali once said: "There were two things in this world which softened the Wrath of Allah and prevented its descent upon man: One has been taken away from you; hold the other stead- fastly. The one which has been taken away from men is the Holy Prophet and the one which is still left with them and which they must hold steadfastly is repentance and atonement for sins because Allah at one place in the Holy Book addressed the Holy Prophet and said Allah would not punish them while you were among them nor while they were asking for forgiveness. (Surah Anfal, 8 : 33)

Sadaqa Al-Fitr. An obligatory sum that must be paid to the poor and needy, by every Muslim, once a year, before Eid-Ul-Fitr.

For a young person who doesn't have enough money it should be paid by their parent or gurdian.

It was made obligatory before Zakat was.

It's payable to the poor and needy. This can include blood relatives (but not partners, parents, grandparents, children ot grand children)

The amount payable is 2045g of wheat or 4090g of dates or barley. It's more appropriate to give the money equivalent as it's more useful to the poor and needy.

Interesting fact I learned today.

While fasting you can go swimming (but only if you're a confident swimmer and know the water will not reach your throat)

How cool is that.....??

...I look like this:

Just a friendly warning. 



Stay away.

Teacher: What are you drawing?

Child: A picture of God.

Teacher: No one knows what God looks like.

Child: They will in a minute.

Doing the right thing for the wrong reason is like not having done it at all.

Allah's Apostle said, "The reward of deeds depends upon the intention and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So whoever emigrated for Allah and His Apostle, then his emigration was for Allah and His Apostle. And whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for."

(Bukhari Volume 1, Book 2, Number 52)

Ash-Shaafi’ee, may Allaah have mercy on him, said: “Had Allaah not sent down aproof to His creation other than this surah (chapter), it would have been sufficient for them.”Al-Bukhaaree, may Allaah have mercy on him, said: “Chapter: Knowledge comesbefore speech and action.”The proof for this is Allaah’s saying:

So know that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allaah, and seekforgiveness for your sins.”

[Surah Muhammad: 19] So He began by mentioningknowledge before speech and action.
 

The prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:

"I and the person who looks after an orphan and provides for him, will be in Paradise like this"
