The Prophetic Migration... A Journey of Building a Firmly Established State

 

All praise is to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Master Muhammad, his family, companions, and followers.

In these blessed days, we breathe in the fragrance of that sacred journey overflowing with messages and lessons—the anniversary of the Prophetic Hijrah.

The noble Hijrah was the journey of building a strong state with its institutions: its mosque, its army, and its economy. A state strong in the firm faith of its people—a state that would protect the religion and safeguard its citizens who defend their faith, identity, land, honor, and resources.

This beginning, this strength, and this divine empowerment explain to us the secret behind that enmity—the reason why the disbelievers of Mecca shifted from merely persecuting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his noble companions to conspiring to kill him once they learned of his intention to migrate and establish a state.

A strong state with a firm identity that defends its faith, people, and resources has always—and will always—infuriate our enemies across time and place. That is why their tactics shifted from oppression, economic warfare, and propaganda to outright intent to kill.

They conspired to assassinate the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as stated in the following verse (What means): "And [remember, O Prophet] when the disbelievers plotted against you to detain, kill, or expel you. They planned, but Allah also planned. And Allah is the best of planners." [Al-Anfal/30].

The use of the word "plotted" indicates that the disbelievers persist in their schemes and hostility. Their plotting against this religion continues—against our sacred symbols, against our major causes and beliefs, and against this Ummah, its principles, and its identity. We see it today: militarily, as we witness in the oppression of our people in Palestine; intellectually, in the waves of atheism, skepticism toward the sources of Islamic rulings, and attacks on the Qur’an, Sunna, and scholars; and morally, in the campaigns promoting deviance in relationships, opposing Islamic rulings. All of this is part of their plotting. Yet the verse reminds us that the schemes of Allah’s enemies hold no weight or value.

Today, as Allah Has Blessed us with this sacred land and the blessings of security and faith, it is our duty to safeguard these favors. We must understand that preserving them is a defeat for our enemies. We must recognize that the Qur’an, Sunna, and divine rulings are the guarantees of our nation’s strength and unity. May Allah protect Jordan and perpetuate its honor under the blessed Hashemite banner, led by His Majesty King Abdullah II Ibn Al-Hussein.

We ask Allah The Almighty to grant us victory and to firmly establish the religion He has chosen for us. Indeed, He is The Guardian of that and The All-Powerful over it. And all praise is to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds.

Summarized Fatawaa

Does fasting on behalf of a deceased person permissible?

Fasting on belhaf of a deceased person is permissible, since the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Whoever dies while he still has some fasts to make up (of the days of Ramadan), then his heir (any of them) should fast on his behalf." [Agreed upon]. The previous answer is for making up missed obligatory fasts on behalf of the deceased. But if the fasting on behlaf of the deceased was for performing  a voluntary acts of devotion such as fasting....is permissible as adopted by the majority of Muslim scholars and based on the above hadith as they stated "Every good dead intended to be on behalf of the deceased its reward will reach the latter." And Allah Knows Best.  

 

What should a woman who delayed making up for missed fast, due to menstruation, till the start of the next Ramadan?

Whosoever broke fasting in Ramadan, and was able to make up for it, but didn`t until the next Ramadan started, is obliged to make up for the missed days, and to pay the ransom as well. However, if he/she wasn`t able to before next Ramadhaan due to an excuse, then he/she should only make up for the missed days. And Allah Knows Best.

I became ill while fasting and had to take an intramuscular injection twice on two consecutive days during Ramadan. I continued my fast as usual, as I was told that intramuscular injections do not break the fast. Please advise me so that I can know the correct ruling.
 
 
 
 
 

Subcutaneous and intramuscular therapeutic injections are not considered as invalidators of fasting because they do not enter the stomach through an open passage. However, intravenous injections containing nutritional fluids do invalidate the fast, as they are akin to food and drink in purpose. Therefore, your fast is valid. And Allah Knows Best.
 
 
 
 
 
 

For passing time, my friends and I have called a famous diviner. She told me that somebody had cast a spill on me not to get married for the rest of my life. I didn`t believe her, but I can`t forget her words. How can I protect myself from such thing?

Praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds.

Dealing with diviners is forbidden and what you are suffering from is due to your having consulted that diviner. Have trust in Allah and ask Him for forgiveness, but rest assured that whatever Allah has decreed will take place. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
