A Statement by the Iftaa` Department on the Terrorist Crimes in America and Libya

 

 

Praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Mohammad, the seal of Messengers, and upon all his family and companions.

The Iftaa` Department confirms that  the killing of innocent people nowadays on basis of  belief, sect, or ethnicity represents a serious violation of humanity and an act of aggression which is absolutely denied by our religion of mercy and human dignity. Allah Says (What means): "We sent thee not, but as a Mercy for all creatures." [Al-Anbia`/107]. He, The Almighty also Says (What means): "We have honored the sons of Adam." [Al-Isra`/70].

The Department condemns the heinous crime that led to the death of three young Muslims in the United States, and the despicable act committed by the criminal junta and led to the death of a number of Coptic Egyptians in Libya. A crime so barbaric that it has shaken the conscience of humanity. However, Islam has nothing to do with it and denounces it completely.

Therefore, the Department calls on scholars, thinkers and people of sound opinion to counter terrorism by reflecting the beautiful image of Islam  and protecting it since mixing Islam with terrorism only leads societies to a state of chaos and anarchy.

We pray that Allah bestows peace and security upon Jordan and the rest of the Islamic countries.

The Iftaa` Department

Summarized Fatawaa

A pious man proposed to me and my father was hesitant in this regard because he is black, am I sinful if I accepted his proposal?

If the suitor is pious, color isn`t a drawback. However, try talking to your father kindly, so that he approves of your marriage with contentment, and that is better for you.

Is abortion permissible when the family isn`t ready to receive a new baby?

Abortion is forbidden unless it constituted a serious threat against the mother`s life based on the opinion of trustful and God fearing physicians.

What is the ruling of Sharia on tubal ligation?

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
Undergoing tubal ligation* to protect the mother`s health is permissible provided that this procedure is performed based on professional opinion of trustworthy medical doctors. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
 

*Tubal ligation is a surgical procedure for female sterilization in which the fallopian tubes are permanently blocked, clipped or removed. This prevents the fertilization of eggs by sperm and thus the implantation of a fertilized egg. Tubal ligation is considered a permanent method of sterilization and birth control.

 

 

Is it allowed for a Muslim woman to wear nail polish?

Praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
Nail polish is an adornment that a woman is allowed to wear for her husband, and not in the presence of non-Mahram men. However, during ablution water needs to reach the nails, so it isn`t possible to perform 'Wudu (ablution) with nail polish on. Therefore, it isn`t valid to make Ghusl Jnabah (Ghusl performed after sexual intercourse or ejaculation), Ghusl after menstruation and Ghusl after Nifas (blood of childbirth) while wearing nail polish. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
