Statement in Appreciation of the UNESCO's Resolution on Al-Aqsa Mosque

All perfect 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.

 

The General Iftaa` Department appreciates the Resolution issued by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) confirming that Al-Aqsa Mosque and the entire Al-Haram al-Sharif are a sacred Islamic site dedicated to the worship of Muslims.

 

This honorable resolution issued by this global organization is a historic one expressing the living conscience of the world that rejects injustice, aggression and the usurpation of the historical rights of peoples. It also expresses support for the Palestinian people, our brothers, stationed in Al-Aqsa Mosque and throughout Palestine. We hope that this bold resolution will be an incentive for the international community to carry out its duty towards the Palestinian question as a true and just cause for both the Palestinian people and the Islamic nation.

 

As Jordanians, we are all proud of the historical Hashemite Custodianship over Al-Aqsa Mosque constituting a force and a preventive measure for protecting Islamic sanctities against Judaization, and keeping them as historical Islamic heritage bearing witness to the right of Muslims in this blessed land.

We ask Allah the Almighty to help us return Palestine and the Al-Aqsa Mosque to the possession of the Muslims, and to bless us with praying there safely, and all praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

Summarized Fatawaa

What is the ruling on a Muslim who slaughters an animal while being in a state of Janabah(ritual impurity)?

Slaughtering is permissible for the ritually impure man and the menstruating woman because ritual purity isn`t a condition for the validity of the slaughtering. Moreover, it is permissible for the uncircumcised person to do the slaughtering as well.

Is it permissible for the man to go out wearing shorts?

It is permissible as long as his Awrah(private part), which is between his navel and knee, is covered. However, the regular wear traditions and modesty are to be observed.

What is the ruling on swearing a false oath by the Holy Quran?

Swearing a false oath by the Holy Quran dips the oath-taker in Hellfire, and one who had done so should turn to Allah in repentance, seek His forgiveness, give back rights to whom they belong, and pay the oath expiation.

A man donated a burial plot, but before registering it in favor of the Ministry of Awqaf and before burying anybody there he said that he didn`t want to donate it and planted it. What is the ruling of Sharia on this?

All perfect 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.

If he had endowed it as a cemetery, then he can`t take it back, even if he didn`t register it in favor of the Ministry of Awqaf. If he said: "I have endowed this plot as a cemetery, then it becomes an endowment." However, if he didn`t endow that plot-but it was his intention to do so-then he is allowed to back down. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
