Resolution No.(114): "Prayer Mats on which the Word Allah is Inscribed"

Date: 6/8/1427 AH, corresponding to 30/8/2006 AD.

 

The board received the following question: 

What is the ruling of Sharia as regards pieces of prayer mat on which the word {Alla-Call} is inscribed?

Answer: All success is due to Allah.

After examining the above mentioned pieces of mat, the Board decided that it is impermissible to spread them on the ground because doing so abases the word ”Allah“ and subjects it to being stepped on. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

What is the ruling on one who slept while firmly seated on the ground, regarding nullification of ablution?

The default ruling regarding sleep is that it nullifies ablution. An exception to this is one who slept while firmly seated on the ground; his ablution is not nullified by sleep if he wakes up while still firmly seated on the ground. And Allah the Almighty knows best.

When does the time for the Fajr prayer begin?

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our Master, the Messenger of Allah.
 
The time for the Fajr prayer begins once the Mu’adhin starts the second Adhan (Al-Adhan al-Thani), and not after the first Adhan. And Allah the Exalted knows best.

What is the ruling of Islamic Law on making up missed voluntary prayers?

All praise is due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our master the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
It is recommended for a Muslim to make up any missed voluntary prayers — whether the regular Sunnah prayers (rawātib), the witr prayer, or his personal devotional routine (wird). As for voluntary prayers that are tied to a specific cause or occasion — such as the eclipse prayers (kusūf and khusūf) — these are not made up once their time has passed.
Shaykh al-Islām Imām al-Nawawī, may Allah have mercy upon him, stated: "The correct view in our school is that making up the regular voluntary prayers is recommended." [Al-Majmūʿ, Vol. 4/P.43] And Allah the Almighty knows best.

Is it permissible to offer an absentee funeral prayer?
