Resolution No.(100): “Ruling on Purchasing a Certain Quantity of Diamond from Abroad through The Arab Islamic Bank“

Date Added : 02-11-2015

 

Resolution No.(100) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

 "Ruling on Purchasing a Certain Quantity of Diamond from Abroad through The Arab Islamic Bank“

Date: 14/3/1427 AH, corresponding to 13/4/2006 AD.

 

 

Question:

Does diamond take the same ruling as gold?

Answer: All success is due to Allah.

The Board is of the view that diamond isn`t amongst the prices and doesn`t take the ruling of gold; therefore, it is permissible for the questioner to purchase whatever quantity he likes through the Arab Islamic Bank, provided that he adheres to the Sharia rulings pertaining to Murabaha sale. The most important of these are: The bank should purchase the diamond for itself first. After the diamond becomes in its possession and guarantee, it should sell it to the client/purchaser. This is based on what the Prophet(PBUH) said to Hakim Bin Hizam: “  I bought some food and made food and made a profit on it (by selling it) before I took possession of it. I came to the Messenger of Allah and told him about that and he said: 'Do not sell it until you take possession of it. "'{Ahmad}.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is the one who doesn`t offer prostration of recitation during Quranic recital considered sinful?

Prostration of Quranic recital is a Sunnah due on whosoever recites a verse that contains a prostration. It is also a Sunnah for the reader and the listener. However, none of them is considered sinful for not offering it, but they deprive themselves from a great reward. It is obligatory to offer the prostration of Quranic recital in congregational prayer following the lead of the Imam.

I wish to Pray at the Mosque, but I couldn't because I am a Woman. How can I get such a Reward?

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                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Abdullah Ibn Masood (May Allah be Pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Her prayer inside her home is better than its courtyard, and her prayer in her own bedroom is better than inside her home." [Abu Dawood]. Her staying at home, and not going to the mosque in obedience to Allah`s injunctions entails a great reward similar to that bestowed on a man for going to the mosque since the Mercy and Blessings of Allah Prevails. And Allah Knows Best.

Is it permissible for the mother to give her children from the Zakah (obligatory charity) of her money?

It is permissible for the mother to give her children from the Zakah of her money if they are Zakah-eligible recipients, and she isn`t obliged to provide for them.

Should Al-Basmalah (i.e. saying Bismillaaahi Ar-Rahmaani Ar-Raheemi) be recited after Takbeerat Al-Ihram (saying Allahuakbar) which marks the beginning of prayer?

All perfect praise be to Allah,The Lord of The Worlds                                                                                                                                                                        A praying person is obliged to recite Al-Basmalah at the beginning of Chapter Al-Faatihah, and in every Rak`ah (unit of prayer) because it is a verse of it. And Allah Knows Best.
