Resolution No. (272): "Tonaib Village Graveyard"

Date Added : 18-03-2019

Resolution No. (272)(5/2019), By The Board of Iftaa', Researches and Islamic Studies:

"Tonaib Village Graveyard"

Date: (30/Jumada Al-Akhirah/1440 AH), corresponding to (7/3/2019).

 

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

During its third session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the letter of His Excellency the Minister of Awqaf, Islamic Affairs and Holy Sites (No.4/6/273041, dated 25/11/2018), in which it was referred to the resolution of the Awqaf Council (No.4/11/2018, dated 12/8/2018). The latter pertained to giving back a portion of the registered shares of plot No.(5)/(3), Tonaib village, which is registered in the name of the public trustee of the Waqf the Ministry of Awqaf, Islamic Affairs and Holy Sites. Could Your Grace discuss this matter with the concerned parties to deliver the ruling of Sharia regarding it? Knowing that this whole plot of land was registered as a graveyard by virtue of Awqaf Law No.(32)/2001. Kindly see enclosed copy of the above resolution.

After deliberating, the Board arrived at the following decision:

The rules of Shraia require that the Ministry of Awqaf draw a distinction between two cases:

First: If the Waqif (Endower) has registered his land by virtue of an official document, then the Ministry shall take charge of the whole plot in line with the conditions of the Waqif.

Second: If the land wasn`t registered as an endowment, and still people were buried in it, in this case, it isn`t permissible to register it in the name of the public trustee (Ministry of Awqaf). However, the Ministry can register-according to its regulations-the part in which people were buried; to the exclusion of the rest of that land, since, in principle, the base rule is to keep all what had appeared on what they had appeared. The area in which no burial took place isn`t endowed. Therefore, it doesn`t remain under the supervision of the Ministry of Awqaf, and thus it must be given back to its original owner. And Allah the Almighty Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

I went to the health center today to take an intramuscular injection of Neurorubin B12. The nurse told me that this type of injection breaks the fast because it nourishes the body. Is this true? I have heard that intramuscular injections do not break the fast, but I was unsure about this type, so I decided not to take the injection.
 
 
 
 
 

Therapeutic injections administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly do not invalidate the fast because they do not enter the digestive tract through an open passage. However, intravenous injections containing nutritional fluids do break the fast, as they are akin to food and drink in effect. The B12 injection is a therapeutic injection and does not break the fast. And Allah Knows Best.
 
 
 
 
 
 

I missed fasting 30 days of the obligatory fast within the last 6 years and 20 days. How do I fast? And what should I do? 

Missed fasting days must be made up, and it is permissible to make them up on non-consecutive days, as continuity is not required for making up missed fasts. Additionally, expiation (Fidya) must be given: feeding one needy person for each day if the makeup is delayed for one year. If the delay extends to two years, Fidya must be given to two needy people per day, and so on. And Allah Knows Best.
 
 
 
 
 

Is the prayer of a woman who is led by an Imam via T.V. permissible?

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds, and may His Peace and Blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Amongst the conditions for the validity of prayer is that both the Imam and those led by him must be in the same place. Thus, the prayer of the person who is being led by a televised Imam is invalid unless he/she was with him in the same mosque. And Allah Knows Best.

Is Zakah (obligatory charity) due on articles of merchandise even if they were stacked in the merchant`s stores for years?

Yes, Zakah is due on goods even if they were stacked in merchant`s stores for years, in this manner Islam struggle against monopoly.
