"Resolution No.(6): "Administration and Development of Orphans' Funds

Date: Rajab / 1408 AH, Corresponding to: 23/3/1985 AD

 

 

We received a question:

 

"What is the ruling on paying Zakat from the funds of orphans deposited in the Orphans Fund Development Foundation?"

 

The answer and all success attributed to Allah:

 

The Iftaa` Board has decided the following:

 

1- Zakat is obligatory on the wealth of minors and those in their stead, subject to the conditions of Zakat as prescribed by Islamic law.

 

2- In matters of Islamic rulings, they should be applied to all Muslims according to Islamic principles. It is not permissible to enact a law that selectively applies Islamic rulings to one group of Muslims while exempting others.

 

Therefore, the committee suggests that this issue be addressed within the framework of a comprehensive Zakat law that applies to all Muslims, including companies and institutions. Especially since the Temporary Zakat Fund Law No.3 of 1978, as amended by Temporary Law No.2/82, will soon be presented to the honorable National Assembly, by the permission of Allah. The committee hopes that the esteemed Assembly will prioritize the implementation of Zakat, as one of the pillars of Islam, comprehensively with care and attention.

 

And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

What is the ruling of Sharia on marrying the maternal niece of one`s wife?

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.
One may not combine in marriage a woman and her paternal aunt, or a woman and her maternal aunt, as stated the Prophet (PBUH). And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

Does passing wind, from the anus without a smell, invalidate prayer?

If a person is certain of having passed wind even if it was with no smell, then both his/her ablution and prayer are invalidated, thus he/she should remake ablution and re-perform prayer.

I wear braces because I had an accident. However, Iam afraid that I could die and be buried while wearing them because they are permanent installation. Is this forbidden? I also wear false teeth. Should I ask my children to pull them out after I die?

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 the braces are worn to get teeth back to normal, then there is no sin in that and there is also no harm in wearing false teeth. Moreover, you don`t have to have them removed after your passing away as this undermines the dignity of the dead. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

Does bleeding from the body, such as from wounds, invalidate ablution?

Bleeding doesn't invalidate person's ablution. And Allah Knows Best.
