  • Some Proofs That the Salah (Prayer) of Men and Women Is Different in Some Aspects
    Some proofS that the Salah (prayer) of men and women iS different in Some aSpectS The following was a question answered by Abdal Aziz ibn Baz (d. 1999), the late Mufti of Saudi Arabia and a major figurehead of a modern sect calling itself “Salafiyya.” His answer is akin to the position of Nasir al-Albani (d. 1999) in his Sifatus Salah. The latter book has also been responded to as it contains numerous weak positions and inauthentic narrations. In this short compilation a reply to both of the named authorities from Salafism shall be responded to below via means of two answers. Question: The Messenger sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam said: "Pray as you have seen me praying" And that which is understood from this Hadeeth is that there is no difference between the prayer of the man and the prayer of the woman, not in the standing, the sitting and nor in the prostration. So I have been acting in accordance with that since reaching the age of at-Takleef (burdened/obligated to abide by the Sharee'ah). But we have women in Kenya who quarrel with me and they say that your prayer is not correct because it resembles the man's prayer. And the examples they mention where the man's prayer differs from the woman's prayer are holding the two hands upon the chest and when releasing them both and the keeping of the back level in the bowing position (Rukoo') and other than that from the issues about which I have conviction. So I would like you to clarify to me is there a difference between the performance of the prayer of the man and the woman? Answer: O questioner, my sister for the sake of Allaah, indeed that which is correct is that there is no difference between the man's prayer and the woman's prayer.

  • Introduction to Hadith
    Introduction to Hadith Mufti Ebrahim Desai (d.b) Contents:- a) Definition of Hadith – literal and technical b) Subject matter of Hadith c) Aims and Objectives of Hadith d) The basis of the word Hadith e) Virtues of Hadith f) Authority of Hadith and answers to those who object to Hadith g) Compilation of Ahaadith h) The different types of books in Hadith i) Category of the different books in Hadith j) Some famous scholars in the field of Hadith k) Category of the narrators of Hadith l) Different ways of obtaining Hadith m) Some rules pertaining to declaring a Hadith – Sahih and Dha’eef n) Imam Abu Hanifa [Rahimahullah] and Hadith DEFINITION OF HADITH Literal meaning of ‘Hadith’ The word Hadith is singular and means Kalaam (speech). The plural is Ahaadith. Technical definition of Hadith The Fuqaha (Jurists) and Muhadditheen (Traditionists and experts in Hadith) differ in their definitions of Hadith. This is because the fields of both are different. According to the Fuqaha, the subject matter of Hadith is to deduce the laws of Shari’ah from Hadith and the subject matter of the Muhadditheen is to merely compile the Ahaadith. Hence, according to the Fuqaha, the definition of Hadith is: The knowledge through which the sayings, the actions, the conditions and confirmations of Rasulullah [Sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam] are known. Conditions here refer to only voluntary conditions, not involuntary conditions.1 The Muhadditheen do not differentiate between voluntary conditions and involuntary conditions. Therefore, the definition of Hadith according to the Muhadditheen is: The knowledge of the sayings of Rasulullah [Sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam], his actions, conditions, acknowledgements of actions and that of his Sahaba [Radhiyallahu 'anhum] and those beyond them (who are followed in Deen).2 According to the Fuqaha of Khurasaan, the word Hadith is used only for Marfoo` Hadith.

  • Women's Prayer Method
    Page | 1 Advanced Level Topics of Study for: Women’s Prayer Method (Hanafi) Page | 2 The Method for Women’s Prayer According to the Hanafi Madhab We learn in the light of Quran & authentic Sunnah that there are minor differences in the salah of males and females. However, if one relies on the practice of Umm ud-Dardaa as a proof for women to pray exactly like men, that is unsubstantiated for several reasons. Few of the strong evidences are mentioned below. Ibn Abi Shaybah narrates: "Makhul reports that Umm ud-Dardaa used to sit like males in Salah." (al-Musannafli-Ibn Abi Shaybah: vol. 1 p 270) (Imam Bukhari has also quoted this statement. However, he has not mentioned any chain of narrators for it. It is for this reason I have quoted the work of Ibn Abi Shaybah) It is incorrect to use this athar for the following reasons: 1. Hafizh Jamaal ud-Din Yusuf al-Mizzi has mentioned her among the Taabi'in. (Tahzheeb al-Kamaal fi-Asmaa ir-Rijaal: vol.22 p 464). The practice of a lone tabi'i is incorrect to adopt even if it may not be contrary to the principles. Hafiz Ibn Hajar Asqalaani states in Fath ul-Baari: "The practice of a lone Tabi'i, even though it may not contradict any principle, will not be used as proof." (Fath ul-Baari: vol. 2 p 243) Hafizh Ibn Hajar has only counted her among the Taabi'in. He says: "It can be realised from the narration of Makhul that that narration refers to the younger Umm ud-Dardaa, the Tabi'iyyah, not the elder sahabiyyah because Makhulmet the former not the latter." (Ibid) 2.

Then he would pray (another) four (rak‘ahs of tahajjud), so do not ask about their beauty and their length. And then he would pray three (rak‘ahs of Witr).” (Fath al-Bari, Dar al-Salam, 3:42) Hadith Two Imam Muslim transmitted in his Sahih from ‘Ali ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Abbas from his father, ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Abbas in the description of the Prophet’s night prayer: ثم أوتر بثﻻث “Then he performed Witr with three (rak‘ahs).” (Fath al-Mulhim, Dar Ihya al-Turath al-‘Arabi, 5:115-6) Ahmad, al-Tahawi and others trasmitted from Ibn ‘Abbas: كانرسول هللا صلى هللا عليه وسلم يوتر بثﻻث بسبح اسم ربك اﻷعلى وقل يا أيها الكافرون وقل هو هللا أحد “The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) would offer Witr with three (rak‘ahs), with [the surahs] sabbihisma rabbika l-a‘la, qul ya ayyuha l-kafirun and qul huwa Llahu ahad.” The editors of Musnad Ahmad commented: “Its chain is sahih.” (Musnad Ahmad, Mu’assasat al- Risalah, 4:457, no.

  • Wiping on Socks” (R Egular Socks , Leather Socks and Seakskinz )
    AN EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON “WIPING ON SOCKS” (R EGULAR SOCKS , LEATHER SOCKS AND SEAKSKINZ ) FOREWORD Moulana Ismail Moosa (Sallamahu) has completed his first year Mufti course at the Darul ifta. There is still much confusion on the issue of masah on socks, especially in America, Canada, UK, and the Middle East countries where masah is made on regular cotton or nylon socks. This is of particular concern to people performing Salah behind Imams who make masah on regular cotton or nylon socks. The Darul Iftaa regularly receives queries in this regard. Amongst other queries are the following: 1) Is the Imams wudhu valid? 2) Is the follower’s wudhu valid? 3) Should we perform our own Salah etc.? Recently, a new sock, SealSkinz has come into the market and the position of wiping on that is being queried. Alhamdulillah, Moulana Ismail Moosa (Sallamahu) in this document has discussed the issue in much detail. He also proves the impermissibility of masah on regular cotton socks. He concludes that masah on SealSkinz is permissible. This treatise should be presented to Imams and trustees of the Masaajid. The issue of masah on regular socks MUST be considered before appointing a person as an Imam of the Masjid. (Mufti) Ebrahim Desai Saheb INTRODUCTION At the very outset, we wish to point out that we follow one of the four Aimmah Mujtahideen (viz. Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi and Imam Ahmad (May Allah Ta'ala have mercy on them all) in all matters of jurisprudence. In our case, we have placed our firm conviction on the School of thought of Imam Abu Hanifa (May Allah Ta'ala have mercy on him).
