A Hundred Years of Moderation and Dialogue had Written the History of the Hashemite Family

 

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.

 

As we stand on the threshold of the two hundredth anniversary of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, we stress that this blessed country rests on established rules of intrinsic values and principles of citizenship laid down by the Hashemite family, leading to unity and cooperation in kindness and righteousness.

 

Since coming to power, the Hashemites adopted the methodology of their grand grandfather, Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) whom Allah sent as mercy to all creatures, to guide the corrupted, to call to the righteous path with wisdom and fair preaching, and disseminate the values of tolerance and mercy amongst the people. This methodology was passed down from generation to generation until the era of Sherif Al-Hussein Bin Ali who led the renaissance of truth and justice and his revolt celebrated the values of tolerance and moderation as well as the dissemination of knowledge and virtue in a community which lacked these for so long.

 

Since its establishment by the late king Abdullah I-who was martyred defending Palestine, Islamic sanctities, and Al-Aqsa mosque-Jordanians have united with their leadership on uplifting their country. This goodness was continued by the Hashemites who derive their legitimacy from being direct descendants of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). The reign of King Talal and King Hussein (May Allah have mercy on them) witnessed insistence on national principles and defending values of mercy and tolerance brought by Islam. The Battle of Karama, Latron, and Bab Al-Waad are clear examples on the sacrifices made by Hashemite family and the Arab Army.

 

When King Abdullah II assumed his constitutional powers, he shouldered his responsibilities effectively and efficiently and delivered the message of his fathers and grandfathers with determination and relentless effort, on the local and international levels. He defended the truth in all forums, spreading values of security and tolerance to make people happy, fought falsehoods and refuted suspicious matters, which people of extremist views tried to pin on him. This is reflected in launching "The Amman Message," which depicts the true Islam, in addition to "Kalima Sawaa`" (a common ground). The latter initiative represents a vision and a basis for coexistence between followers of different faiths from the same society, regardless of their religious affiliations and intellectual tendencies. Another initiative was "World Interfaith Harmony Week."  It is an annual event observed during the first week of February (1-7 February). It reminds that values of love and harmony should prevail in all communities, that the religion should be a driver for happiness and unity, not misery and division. In fact, this is the essence of the message of Islam since Almighty Allah Says (What means): "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other)." [Al-Hujurat/13]. Jordan along with its Hashemite leadership are the best example and embodiment for the meaning of this verse. This can be noticed in the unity of Jordanians who warmly welcomed refugees from different Arab and Muslim countries. The latter came only because they knew that Jordan is an oasis of peace and stability ruled by a fair King.

 

We pray that Allah confers His blessings upon Jordan, preserves the unity of its people, and keeps it a role model for the values of justice, tolerance, and moderation.

Summarized Fatawaa

In the last verse of Surah At-Tin, Allah Says (What means): "Is Allah not the most just of judges?" [At-Tin/8]. Is it permissible for us, while performing congregational prayer, to respond after the Imam recites it by saying: "Indeed, and I am among those who bear witness to that." ?

It is recommended for the worshipper to say 'Indeed' (Bala) silently after reciting or hearing the verse (/What means): "Is Allah not the most just of judges?" [At-Tin/8]. This is part of reflecting on the Quran during its recitation or listening, as Allah Says (What means): "Then do they not reflect upon the Quran, or are there locks upon [their] hearts?" (Muhammad: 24). Doing so helps in achieving humility and focus in prayer. And Allah Knows Best

Is permissible to abort my embryo if there was a risk on my Life?

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds, and may His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Abortion is permissible if it was confirmed that the existence of the fetus within his mother's Belly might cause her certain death.Therefore, abortion is permissible if the above conditions were met. And Allah Knows Best.

Is it permissible for a woman in her menstrual period to recite from the Mus-haf (copy of the Quran ), or to recite by heart?

A menstruating woman is permitted neither to recite nor to touch the Quran according to what Ali Bin Abi Talib (May Allah be pleased with him) reported about the Prophet (PBUH) who was only held from reciting the Holy Quran by Janabah (Major impurity) [Al-Tirmizi in a sound Hadith]. Although Janabah and menstruation are major impurities, a menstruating woman is permitted to supplicate Allah (Duaa`) and make Zikr (Tasbihat ), even if these involved saying words from the Holy Quran, provided that she does not mean the words for themselves but as a supplication, or Zikr. Moreover, she is rewarded for not reciting the Quran during her menstrual period because she abided by the injunctions of Allah.

1- A young man whose father and grandfather are dead. Unfortuntly, he passedaway leaving a mother, two sisters and a brother. Do his paternal uncles inherit him? 2- A man died leaving daughters, a wife, brothers, a mother or no mother. It is well known that the daughters inherit two thirds and the wife one eighth. To whom does the rest of the estate go and what is the evidence on that from the texts of Sharia?

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.
1- The full brother or the paternal half-sibling disinherits the paternal uncles. The paternal half-sibling takes one sixth and because they are from the Asabah (Male relatives on the father`s side) of the deceased they take the rest of the estate. The proof of this is that Ibn ‘Abbas (May Allah Be Pleased with them) reported God’s Messenger (PBUH) as saying: "Give the shares to those who are entitled to them, and what remains over goes to the nearest male heir." [Agreed upon]. In this case, nothing is left to them.
2- The brothers take the rest of the deceased`s estate and the full brother disinherits the paternal half-sibling, and the proof of this is the aforementioned narration. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
