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 applying perfume while fasting?

Applying perfume does not break the fast. However, it is better to avoid it, as fasting is a practice of simplicity and restraint, while perfume is a form of luxury.

Is fidyah required for someone who breaks their fast due to a valid excuse?

● If the excuse is permanent, such as a chronic illness with no hope of recovery or old age, then fidyah is required. This means feeding one needy person for each missed fasting day.
● However, if the excuse is temporary, such as menstruation, postnatal bleeding, or a temporary illness, then only making up the missed fasts (qada) is required, and fidyah does not apply.

What is the ruling on eating or drinking forgetfully during the day in Ramadan or during voluntary fasting?

Whoever eats or drinks forgetfully while fasting, whether in an obligatory or voluntary fast, should continue their fast, for it is Allah who has provided them with food and drink. There is no difference between obligatory and voluntary fasting in this ruling.

I`m in love with a certain man, and want to marry him in particular, but my family refused that, what should I do?

The father should know what is in the best interest of his daughter and consider her situation. On her part, the daughter should trust her father`s view point as far as suitors are concerned. Moreover, it is prohibited for any woman, or girl to get involved in a relation with a non-Mahram (Marriageable man).
