During its fourth session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the letter sent from His Excellency, Minister of Awqaf Islamic Affairs and Holy Places, Dr. Abdulnaser Abulbasal, and it read as follows:

Could Your Grace present an indexed copy of the Noble Quran-printed by Al-Sahar Company/Egypt-to the Iftaa` Board to examine the possibility of putting it into circulation. This is based on recommendation by the Committee of the Noble Quran which met on Tuesday, Oct. 10th, 2017.

After reviewing the mentioned copy, and deliberating, the Board decided that there is no harm in putting it into circulation and making it accessible to the public. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is there a solution to put an end to thinking of worries during prayer?

Firstly, make ablution after the time for prayer begins and busy yourself with remembering Allah, The Exalted, before the iqaamah (start of prayer).In order to become humbly submissive during prayer, you must perform prayer in congregation. After the prayer ends, stay in your place and read the post-prayer remembrances (Adhkaar) and make supplication to Allah, The Exalted.

What is the ruling on someone who fasts but does not pray?

A Muslim must be diligent in fulfilling all obligations, and after the Shahadah, prayer is the most important duty.
● If someone abandons prayer out of disregard, they are considered a disbeliever, and their fasting is not accepted.
● If they abandon prayer out of laziness, they are still a Muslim, and their fasting remains valid, but they have committed a grave sin by neglecting prayer.

What is the ruling on kidney dialysis while fasting in Ramadan?

Kidney dialysis breaks the fast because the dialysis fluid is nutritive, as confirmed by medical experts. Additionally, it involves the entry of substances into the body cavity (jauf).
A patient undergoing dialysis must make up for that day after Ramadan. If they are unable to do so, they must pay fidyah by feeding one needy person for each day they missed.

Does smoking break the fast?

Yes, smoking breaks the fast because smoke particles intentionally enter the lungs, which are considered part of the body cavity (jauf).
