TAKING PICTURES USING A MOBILE PHONE

Question:

What is the ruling concerning taking pictures using a mobile phone considering some people say that it is just capturing a shadow and there is no prohibition in that, so what is the ruling concerning that?

Answer:

For HIM there is no prohibition in that, as for the Sunnah and the evidences then picture taking/making in general is Haraam (prohibited) and the picture maker is cursed. And he will receive from the most severest of punishments on the Day of Judgment. So what is it that takes the mobile phone out from this generality? The Messenger made picture making Haraam without exception by any means; (whether that be by way of ) a mobile phone, a camera, by hand(sculpting) or by drawing, he made it absolutely Haraam.

So who is he that makes an exception from what the messenger sallallaahu alaihi wasallam said and attempts to redress the messenger. Apart from that the Muhaqqiqeen (verifiers) from the Scholars make an exception in the case of necessity, if a person is in need of taking a picture for a necessity then it is allowed due to this necessity due to His saying - the Most High:
(وقَدْ فَصَّلَ لَكُم مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ إلاَّ مَا اضْطُرِرْتُمْ إلَيْهِ )

While He has explained to you in detail what is forbidden to you, except under compulsion of necessity? [Surah al-'An'aam:119]

As for picture taking as a hobby or as a form of art by the use of the camera or by hand or by any object then it is Haraam and it is not allowed except in case of necessity only. In accordance to the necessity it is a concession. It is a concession due to a necessity only.

SAJDATUT-TILAWAH IS A SUNNAH

Question:

If I come across a Verse in which there is a prostration when I am reciting the Quran at my desk, or when I am teaching the students, or in any place, should I perform Sajdatut-Tilawah, or not? And is the prostration for the reciter and the listener both?

Answer:

Sajdatut-Tilawah is a Sunnah for the reciter and for the listener and it is not an obligation, nor is it prescribed for the listener except in following of the reciter. So if you recite a Verse in which there is a prostration in your office or the place of instruction, it is lawful for you to make prostration and it is prescribed for the students to prostrate with you, because they are the listeners. And if you do not observe the prostration, there is no objection.

THREE MATTERS THAT MAKE GHUSL WAAJIB

Question:

A man had sexual relations with his wife, however he did not ejaculate, and he prayed (in that state) for a period of one week; and after that, one of the youth said to him, “It is upon you to make Ghusl and to repeat the Prayer.”
So is this obligatory upon him or not?

Answer:

Firstly, it is obligatory that we know that the Ghusl is waajib upon us by one of three matters:
1) Either by ejaculation, even (if this happened) without sexual relations.

2) Or, by (having) sexual relations, even (if this happens) without ejaculating.

3) Or, by having sexual relations and ejaculating.

It is upon this individual to repeat his prayers that he prayed before he made the ghusl, because he has with him, in reality, something by way of neglect. And it is obligatory upon him to ask the people of knowledge, and to repeat all of these prayers, meaning, he does not pray each prayer along with its equivalent, rather; he prayers them all together.

THE VIRTUE OF RESPONDING TO THE ADHAAN & PRAYING THE TAHIYYATIL-MASJID

Question:

I entered the Masjid whilst the Adhaan for the prayer was being called, so do I pray the Tahiyyatil-Masjid (Prayer for Entering the Mosque, Lit. Greeting the Mosque) or do I wait until the end of the Adhaan?

Answer:

It is better that he responds to the Adhaan first, and then he prays the Tahiyyatil-Masjid so that he combines between the two virtues and the affair in that regard is broad.
And with Allaah lies the true success and may the blessings of Allaah and peace be upon our prophet Muhammad, his family and upon his companions.

IT IS NOT PERMISSABLE FOR A MUSLIM TO DISLIKE THAT WHICH ALLAAH DOES NOT DISLIKE

Question:

Is abandonment of the permissible [affairs] as a means of nearness to Allaah the Mighty and Majestic considered from the polytheistic innovations or not? Since there are people who practice that and see it to be from abstention (al-Warr’) and consider to be prohibited (Haraam) or disliked (Makrooh) some of the permissible things without any evidence or proof and due to that they refrain from that and therefore they have much enmity and debate for that reason. I hope for some clarity, baarakAllaahu feehim.
