Resolution No.(141): "Ruling on Investment at the Dead Sea Area"

Date Added : 27-10-2015

Resolution No.(141),(6/2010): "Ruling on Investment at the Dead Sea Area"

Date: 7/5/1430AH, corresponding to 24/4/2010AD

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

During its fourth session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the questions sent by Jordan Heritage Revival Company regarding the ruling of Sharia on swimming and picknicking at the Dead Sea area as well as investing that area in building hotels that neither serve alcoholic drinks, nor contain any forbidden matters.

After thorough studying and deliberating, the Board decided what follows:

The Board is of the view that it is permissible to invest the Dead Sea area in building hotels so long as these don`t sell any forbidden items such as alcoholic drinks, or pork, and don`t have mixed swimming pools. As regards swimming and pickncking in that area, there is no Sharia approved evidence that forbids doing that, because in principle things are permissible unless forbidden by an established evidence from Sharia: the Noble Quran and the Prophetic Sunnah. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

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

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

Is it permissible to offer prayer at home, or should it be offered in the mosque?

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds.                                                                                                                                                                      It isn`t preferable for the man to pray at home as praying in the mosque is twenty seven times more rewarding. Therefore, this should motivate him to offer prayers in the mosque. And Allah Knows Best.

Is the Aqeeqa due on the newborn in case of dying almost a month after the delivery?

Offering Aqeeqa after a week of a newborn death is recommended.

I went to the health center today to take an intramuscular injection of Neurorubin B12. The nurse told me that this type of injection breaks the fast because it nourishes the body. Is this true? I have heard that intramuscular injections do not break the fast, but I was unsure about this type, so I decided not to take the injection.
 
 
 
 
 

Therapeutic injections administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly do not invalidate the fast because they do not enter the digestive tract through an open passage. However, intravenous injections containing nutritional fluids do break the fast, as they are akin to food and drink in effect. The B12 injection is a therapeutic injection and does not break the fast. And Allah Knows Best.
