To facilitate the pronunciation of Arabic letters, a transliteration chart has been added. Terms of Islamic Jurisprudence have not been translated as a caution because in most cases, an English word cannot be a full substitute for an Islamic term. However, a glossary has been given at the end of the book, elaborating Islamic terms. Further, an index and a bibliography have also been given.

" ( ) * ($ # % &#' % #$ SIGNIFICANCE OF FARD KNOWLEDGE A’lā Ḥaḍrat, Imām-e-Aĥl-e-Sunnat, Maulānā Shāĥ Imām Aḥmad * Razā Khān -& , * + has said, ‘One should acquire religious knowledge to such an extent that he is aware of the true religion as well as of the rulings of Wuḍū, Ghusl, Ṣalāĥ, fast etc. It is absolutely obligatory for everyone to be aware of the Shar’ī rulings of the matters they are currently engaged in – for example, a businessman must learn rulings about business, a farmer about farming and an employee about employment. No one should waste time in gaining knowledge of geography, history etc. unless they have gained Farḍ knowledge. The person who is busy with Nafl instead of Farḍ is severely taken to task in Aḥādīš, and that good deed of theirs is unacceptable. One must not waste time in useless things giving up Farḍ.’ (Fatāwā Razawiyyaĥ referenced, vol. 23, pp. 647, 648) Alas! Today most of us are fascinated by receiving only worldly education. If someone is fond of religious education they often remain confined to Mustaḥab knowledge only. Alas! Muslims today pay very little attention towards Farḍ knowledge. Regretfully, a large number of even those offering Ṣalāĥ are unaware of the essential rulings of Ṣalāĥ, whereas learning these rulings is Farḍ and not * knowing them is a big sin. Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān -& , * + has said, ‘Not knowing the essential rulings of Ṣalāĥ is Fisq [transgression].’ (ibid, vol. 6, pp. 523) vii Salah for Islamic Sisters viii E . / 0 ! This book ‘Salah for Islamic Sisters (Hanafi)’ consists of innumerable such rulings which are Farḍ for Islamic sisters to learn. Hence Islamic sisters should read it many times until they have memorized the rulings contained in it. They should also read them out to other Islamic sisters with good intentions. If any Islamic sister is unable to comprehend any ruling, she should obtain its explanation from the scholars of Aĥl-us-Sunnaĥ instead of explaining it by making guesses. Elaborating on how to do it, Ṣadr-ush-Sharī’aĥ, Badr-uṭ-Ṭarīqaĥ, 4 + Allāmaĥ Maulānā Muftī Muhammad Amjad ‘Alī A’ẓamī 3 ۡ 2 E , / 1‘ has stated on line 12 of page 89 of the 7th volume of Baĥār-e-Sharī’at (published by Maktabaĥ Razawiyyaĥ), ‘If a woman needs to know a Shar’ī ruling, she can ask her husband if he is a scholar. If he is not a scholar she can ask him to go to a scholar in order to ask about the ruling. She is not allowed to go to a scholar in person under these conditions. If these conditions do not exist, then she can go.’ May Allah bestow great reward upon the scholars of ‘Majlis Iftā’ and ‘Majlis Al-Madīna-tul-‘Ilmiyyaĥ’ of Dawat-e-Islami, for they have scrutinized this book with dedication adding some important narrations and jurisprudential clauses, thereby enhancing its significance! Without any fear of being criticized, I acknowledge that this book is the fruit of their guidance and blessings. May Allah greatly strengthen the memory of the compiler as well as the readers of this book so that they could remember the correct rulings, act accordingly and convey them to others. (This book contains useful Madanī pearls not only for Islamic sisters but also for Islamic brothers). May Allah accept this little effort of Sag-e-Madīnaĥ and bless him with the great imperishable wealth of sincerity.

    Women's Issues Made Simple Batul S. Arastu - XKP Published: 2013 Categorie(s): Non-Fiction, Religion, Islam Tag(s): "women issues" "muslim women" "ghusl in islam" "ayatullah sist- ani" "islamic hijab" menses paak istehaza istadha xkp Menstruation qaleelah mutawasit kaseera haidh haiz Menopause ruling for menstrual 1 Chapter 1 Author’s Preface Before I came to Qum I had many questions regarding specific issues related to women, the Islamic rules women must follow. One of the main issues all women face is that of different blood cycles. There are a lot of Fiqh (Jurisprudence) books that cover these sensitive topics for women, but I often found them very confusing for myself. Alhamdulillah, join- ing the Houza (Seminary) in Qum helped me in understanding these confusing issues. Apart from wanting to share what I learnt, I wanted to make my life easy so I decided to write a very simple book that talks mainly about different issues women face. In this book we will be mainly discussing different blood cycles and the different women who are special in their own way. When you read this book you will be able to figure out what kind of a blood cycle you have and InshaAllah you will be able to perform your duties as per the laws of Islam, which is obligatory on all of us. This book is written according to the rulings of Ayatullah Khomeini and Ayatullah Seestani. Although most of the Maraaji’ have similar views on these issues, it is important that sisters who follow other Maraaji’ should check with their own Marja`, because there may be minor differences in the rulings.

  • Glossary of Islam - Wikipedia Glossary of Islam from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    8/9/2017 Glossary of Islam - Wikipedia Glossary of Islam From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The following list consists of notable concepts that are derived from both Islamic and Arab tradition, which are expressed as words in the Arabic language. The main purpose of this list is to disambiguate multiple spellings, to make note of spellings no longer in use for these concepts, to define the concept in one or two lines, to make it easy for one to find and pin down specific concepts, and to provide a guide to unique concepts of Islam all in one place. Separating concepts in Islam from concepts specific to Arab culture, or from the language itself, can be difficult. Many Arabic concepts have an Arabic secular meaning as well as an Islamic meaning. One example is the concept of dawah. Arabic, like all languages, contains words whose meanings differ across various contexts. The word Islam is itself a good example. Arabic is written in its own alphabet, with letters, symbols, and orthographic conventions that do not have exact equivalents in the Latin alphabet (see Arabic alphabet). The following list contains transliterations of Arabic terms and phrases; variations exist, e.g. din instead of deen and aqidah instead of aqeedah. Most items in the list also contain their actual Arabic spelling.
