Resolutions of Iftaa' Board

Date Added : 31-05-2017

Resolution No.(236)(4/2017) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"Ruling on Selling the Encroached upon Part of the Graveyard"

Date: (27/Shaaban/1438), corresponding to(24/5/2017).

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds, and may His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

On its fifth session held on the above date, the Board has reviewed the letter sent from His Excellency Minister of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs Dr. Wa`eil Arabiat, and reads as follows:

I have enclosed a copy of the Awqaf Board`s resolution No.(8/12/2016), (20/12/2017 AD)about permitting the sale of (9.71) Meters from the endowed plot No.(2081), Al-Abiad (9). This is in addition to a copy of the inspection report approved by the Mufti of Zarqa Governorate, and in coordination with the official committee from your respected Dept. and the report of the Awqaf`s Properties Committee. Could you clarify the ruling of Sharia on this matter so as for the Ministry to carry on with the administrative and legal procedures?

After deliberations, the Board decided the following:

Based on the inspection report conducted by the committee in question and the fact that the part of the graveyard on which the building was set up contained no graves and taking into consideration that the graveyard is very old, the Board believes that it is permissible to sell that part after making sure that the land isn`t endowed by a particular endower or for a particular purpose. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

What is usually said upon the slaughtering of the Aqeeqah (the sheep slaughtered on the seventh day from the child`s birth)?

It is desirable to say: "Bismillah Alrahman Alraheem, was`salatu Wa s`salamu Ala Sa`idenah Mohammad, O Allah, this Aqeeqah is from You and to You on behalf of ….."

How should a person who is afflicted with continued major ritual impurity (incontinence of urine, bleeding outside the monthly period) perform ablution?

Such a person should make ablution for every prayer after its due time and after removing impurities from their body and outfit, and should place a fresh diaper whenever needed so as for the impurity not to spread out. They should also perform prayer immediately even if incontinence of urine continued, and should repeat the aforementioned for every obligatory prayer, then perform optional prayer as much as they want.

Should missed Sunnah prayer be made up?

Making up missed voluntary acts of worship is from Sunnah.

Talking to one's fiancée in Ramadan with romantic talk may lead to arousal, and if pre-ejaculate fluid (Madhy) is discharged as a result, it does not break the fast. However, it is advised to avoid actions that provoke desire and lead to this outcome. If semen (Mani) is discharged as a result, it does break the fast.
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

The discharge of Madhy doesn't invalidate one's fasting but it invalidates the ablution and his clothes must be washed because they are impure in this case. As for Mani, it breaks one's fast and making up invalidataed  is obligatory, beside; a Muslim suitor should abstain from these matters during Ramadan and not to degrade the holy month to this extent. And Allah Knows Best.
