Resolution No.(67): "Ruling on Dividing Land in Accordance with Tameem Ad-Dari`s Endowment"

Date: 23/5/1424 AH corresponding to 23/7/2003 AD.

 

The Board received the following question:

How to divide an inherited plot of land {Waqf Tameem Ad-Dari type} amongst eligible heirs, taking into consideration that it is located within the borders of Al-Khalil Municipality. Is it possible to divide it according to Sharia, or the Ottoman Land Code?

Answer: All success is due to Allah.

After deliberation, the Board is of the view that the revenue of the aforementioned plot and the structure on it is to be divided according to Sharia, and not the Ottoman Land Code. This is because it isn`t a miri land stated in the Ottoman Land Code, rather, it is registered as an endowment of Tameem Ad-Dari`s type, located within the borders of Al-Khalil Municipality. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is it obligatory for someone traveling by plane in the afternoon during Ramadan to fast?

Anyone who intends to travel after dawn must begin the day fasting and continue with the intention of completing their fast, as fasting was obligatory upon them before traveling.
However, if they experience unbearable hardship after starting their journey, they are permitted to break their fast due to that hardship, not merely because of travel. In such a case, they must make up for the missed fast later.

Is it permissible to give Zakah (obligatory charity) to one`s poor sister, or brother?

It is permissible for one to give the Zakah to his poor sister, or brother if providing for them isn`t due on him, and the sister doesn`t receive sufficient provision from whomever that is due on. And Allah Knows Best.

What is the ruling on speaking while relieving oneself?

It is disliked for one relieving himself to speak while doing so, except out of necessity. And Allah the Almighty knows best.

Does using a gargling medicine break the fast?

If the medicine reaches the body cavity (jauf), the fast is invalidated. However, if it does not enter the body cavity, the fast remains valid.
Therefore, it is advisable to avoid using it during the day in Ramadan.
