Date Added : 02-11-2015

Resolution No.(144)(9/2010) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"The Jordanian Personal Status Draft Law/2010"

Date: 16/6/1431 AH, corresponding to 30/5/2010 AD.

 

During its sixth session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the Jordanian Personal Status Draft Law.

After thorough studying and deliberating, it decided what follows:

The above draft law is derived from the provisions of Islamic Sharia with its four Madhabs (Schools of thought), and achieves its goals related to the family rules through protecting the rights of women, family, and children, in general; therefore, the Board recommends going on with its constitutional procedures until it is ratified.

Moreover, the Board appreciates the sincere efforts of the Supreme Judge, the Sharia Judiciary Commission and all the people that have participated in drafting this law. We pray that Allah, The Almighty, favors Islam and Muslims with success and progress. All success is due to Allah.

Summarized Fatawaa

Does excessive sleep during Ramadan invalidate fasting?

Sleeping a lot in Ramadan does not invalidate the fast, but a Muslim may miss out on great rewards from prayer, Quran recitation, and acts of worship due to excessive sleep.

What is the ruling on a woman who gets her menstrual period while fasting?

If a woman gets her menstrual period while fasting, her fast (of that day) becomes invalid, and she must make up for the missed days after Ramadan. Allah has granted ease to women in this situation, and she will be rewarded for not fasting because she is following Allah’s command.

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.

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.
