Resolution No.(15) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:   

 "Ruling on Paying Zakat Funds in Support of the Palestinian Uprising“

Date: 10/8/1410 AH, 7/3/1990 AD

We have received the following question:

What is the ruling of Sharia on paying Zakat funds in support of the Palestinian uprising?

Answer: All success is due to Allah.

It is permissible to pay Zakat (alms/obligatory charity) funds to support the uprising of our brothers in the occupied territories since they are resisting the disbelievers, who have seized the blessed land, and are defending Islamic sanctities and honors. Therefore, they are entitled to receive Zakat for being included in one of the eight categories eligible for it, and that is: “For the cause of Allah“ Consequently, Muslim scholars have permitted that the Mujahidin (fighters in the cause of Allah) and the steadfast there (Palestine) receive their share within that category. This ruling is based on the verse: “The alms are only for the poor and the needy, and those who collect them, and those whose hearts are to be reconciled, and to free the captives and the debtors, and for the cause of Allah, and (for) the wayfarer; a duty imposed by Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise.” {At-Tawba/60}. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

It is stated in the Noble Quran that pork is forbidden for Muslims. Why is that so?

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.
To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and He makes certain things allowed for us, while others are declared prohibited. Consequently, He the Almighty wouldn`t make something prohibited unless it is harmful;  whether we are made acquainted with the reason or not. Moreover, medical doctors have stated that there are many harms for pork. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.   

Is permissible to abort my embryo if there was a risk on my Life?

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                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Abortion is permissible if it was confirmed that the existence of the fetus within his mother's Belly might cause her certain death.Therefore, abortion is permissible if the above conditions were met. And Allah Knows Best.

A woman went for Hajj while pregnant, gave birth after leaving Arafat, and was unable to perform the Tawaf Al-Ifadah. If she cannot stay until she becomes pure from postpartum bleeding (Nifas) and she is from a distant country, what is she liable for?
 

This woman is advised to leave Mecca in a state of Ihram if the caravan departs. Once she reaches a distance where returning to Mecca is not feasible, she should consider herself in a state of being prevented (Muhsar). She may then exit Ihram, and she is required to offer a sacrificial animal (Blood) at that location. Additionally, she must perform a compensatory Hajj at the earliest possible opportunity. And Allah Almighty Knows Best.

 

 

 

Is ablution invalidated when blood comes out of the nose, or a wound?

Blood coming out of the nose, or a wound does not invalidate ablution, but it is preferable to make ablution as a way out of the scholars disagreement in this regard.
