About the Drawing Offending Almighty Allah

 

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.

Islam has played a great role in human life as well as in building noble values that spread justice, tolerance, and mercy. Muslims have carried this noble mission throughout the ages, spreading justice and mercy and fulfilling their role in building human civilization. They were torches of guidance and light wherever they settled and traveled.

 

A group of people exploited the call to confront violence and extremism and attacked Almighty Allah and religious symbols. They launched a fierce attack on Islam in a bid to undermine it and distort its concepts under the pretext of confronting violence and extremism, exploiting the actions of extremists and criminal Takfiris (Those who accuse Muslims to be disbelievers). They portrayed Islam as their enemy and exceeded limits in distorting its image. They sometimes offended Almighty Allah and sometimes our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. In doing so, they are no less extreme than the extremists themselves. In fact, they are working to fan the flames of extremism and ignite sedition and division within society.

 

We have already stated that extremism has no religion or sect, and that it is strange to Islam, all religions and heavenly laws. Jordan was ahead in warning against this distortion by launching the Amman Message, the message of tolerant Islam, in 2004.

 

The mockery of Almighty Allah that has been published by some people incites hatred and spreads sedition in the country. This is something that must be stood up against with all firmness and determination. All Muslims bear the responsibility of defending Almighty Allah and speaking out against those who mock Him. This can be done by upholding Quranic ethics, presenting the luminous image of Islam to the world, refuting the doubts that are directed at it, avoiding violence, terrorism, and killing for these things only serve to distort the image of Islam and Muslims.

 

We, at the General Iftaa` Department, appreciate the measures taken by the government and security agencies to hold accountable those who have insulted Almighty Allah and religious symbols. We also demand that the penalties for those who insult religions be increased within the framework of the law and public order. We also demand that they refrain from inciting sedition and sectarian tensions, so that the call to Allah the Almighty continues to be conducted with wisdom and fair preaching, away from all forms of violence that ignite the fire of sedition.

 

We call on fellow Jordanians to stand together in the face of calls for violence and extremism and to stay away from spreading malicious rumors and repeating them without considering the consequences and evils that result from them, which could lead to the destruction of society and the undermining of its foundations.

 

We stress the need to resist all forms of extremism and to fortify our Jordanian society against its diseases, regardless of its source or form.

 

We also call on the media to play its role in conveying the correct image of Islam and not to follow rumors, and to be careful to consolidate the values of tolerant Islam and highlight its bright image. Experts of this field are responsible for bearing this trust in the best way without distortion, falsification or exaggeration. The word is a dangerous weapon that has two edges. If it is honest, trustworthy and good, it will lead to good and construction. If it is false and corrupt, it will lead to evil and destruction.

 

We ask Allah the Almighty to keep our country safe and secure, and to protect it from all evils and forms of sedition, revealed and concealed. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing and answers the call of those who invoke Him. And all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

Summarized Fatawaa

I am pregnant with more four twins since two months although I didn't have childbearing potential during the last four years. In addition, the doctor specialized in reprusccusions, already has notified me about the possible reprusccusions as a result of being pregnant with four twins as follows: abortion, Metrorrhagia, Premature birth, high blood pressure, gestational diabetes and the like. What is the ruling on aborting some of the aforementioned embryos? A medical report was attached in which the status of my question is clarified.

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.
If the existence of the four embryos leads to critical reprusccusions on mother's health, pose a threat over her life or abort all of her embryos, then aborting some of them is permissible to ward off some of those risks stipulated that the ages of the embryos don't exceed four months. And Allah Knows Best.
             

 

I have a question regarding the deferred portion of the dowry (Mahr)*. Is the wife entitled to it only upon divorce or she can claim it even if divorce hasn`t taken place? Moreover, does she have the right to claim this portion after death of husband, even if he didn`t divorce her before that?

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.
In the marriage contract, it is recorded that the deferred portion of the dowry is due upon divorce or death, whatever comes first. If divorce took place first then the woman is entitled to it and if the husband died this amount must be paid from his estate. On the other hand, if the woman died then the husband becomes liable for this portion and it becomes part of the woman`s estate. We advise every husband to give this portion to his wife while alive because it is a right of hers. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
* In Islam, a Mahr is the obligation, in the form of money or possessions paid by the groom, to the bride at the time of Islamic marriage (payment also has circumstances on when and how to pay). While the mahr is often money, it can also be anything agreed upon by the bride such as jewelry, home goods, furniture, a dwelling or some land. Mahr is typically specified in the marriage contract signed upon marriage.

Are all the children of a suckling woman considered brothers to the strange child whom their mother had breastfed, or just to the one who had suckled with him?

All the children of the woman who had suckled a strange child are considered his/her brothers and sisters.

I wish to Pray at the Mosque, but I couldn't because I am a Woman. How can I get such a Reward?

 

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.

Abdullah Ibin Masood reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Her prayer inside her home is better than its courtyard, and her prayer in her own bedroom is better than inside her home." [Abu Dawood]. Her staying at home, and not going to the mosque in obedience to Allah`s injunctions entails a great reward similar to that bestowed on a man for going to the mosque since the bounty of Allah is for all. And Allah Knows Best.
