Resolution No.(79) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"Comments Made on Children`s Rights` Bill, 2004"

Date: 17/5/1425 A.H, corresponding to 5/7/2004 A.D

 

 

The Board has reviewed the above bill and made the following comments:

Paragraph (4): "Despite what has been mentioned in any other law, each child enjoys the right to lineage, which is ascertained by the owner of the bed, confession, or evidence, including the employment of scientific methods."

The Board believes that this paragraph should be amended as follows: "Each child has the right to lineage, which is ascertained by the bed of a valid marriage contract, confession, or evidence, in line with the rules of Islamic Law."

Article (8), Paragraph (A): "Principles, conditions, and all rules pertaining to alternative care shall be determined by a law promulgated for this purpose."

The Board believes that this paragraph should be amended as follows: " Principles, conditions, and all rules pertaining to alternative care shall be determined by a law promulgated for this purpose, in line with the rules of Islamic Law."

Paragraph (W): "Guaranteeing the protection of children against factors that influence their instinct, drive them to go astray, violate social behavior and healthy life styles."

The Board believes that this paragraph should be amended as follows: "Guaranteeing the protection of children against factors that influence their instinct, drive them to go astray, violate Sharia as well as social behavior and healthy life styles"

Article (20), Paragraph (A): "Non-prosecuting a child before he/she completes ten years"

The Board recommends amending this paragraph as follows:

"Non-prosecuting a child before he/she completes puberty."

Article (25), Paragraph (A): The Board has noticed that the information given in this paragraph violate the principles of Islamic Law. For instance: " In Sharia  terms, the penalty set for sodomy is extremely severe because of the seriousness of this offence." As a result, the Board expresses its reservation over this article. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is it a condition that the meat of the Eid sacrifice should be distributed in order for the sacrifice to be accepted by Allah?

The poor and needy should be given from that sacrifice , even if it be a small portion,(One kilo for example) as raw meat so that they would cook it the way they want. The remainder of that sacrifice is either distributed, eaten, or offered to people in a banquette .

Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to wear trousers at home?

Wearing trousers at home isn't prohibited so long as non-Mahrams do not see her. And Allah Knows Best.

When does the time of Isha' prayer end?

All perfect praise be to Allah,The Lord of The Worlds                                                                                                                                                                        It ends at the emergence of true Fajr (Fajr Al-Sadiq ), and when the second Athaan of Fajr starts.And Allah Knows Best.

I have mixed (halal and haram) money, and I want to purify it. My father is poor, and I want him, my mother, and my mother-in-law to perform Hajj, along with myself and my wife, as they need care due to their old age. Is it permissible to use this money for Hajj, or what should I do with it? Please advise.
 
 
 
 
 

If you knew the exact amount of unlawful money, then you should give as a charity, and if didn't then try to figure out the closest amount in order to give it as a charity. 
As for performing Hajj, perform it by using your lawful money. May Allah Bless you for being dutiful to your parents and your mother in law and for your attempt to serve them, And Allah Knows Best.
