The Battle of Badr

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The battle of Badr was the most important among the Islamic battles of Destiny. For the first time the followers of the new faith were put into a serious test. Had victory been the lot of the pagan army while the Islamic Forces were still at the beginning of their developments, the faith of Islam could have come to an end. No one was aware of the importance of the outcome of the Battle as the Prophet ﷺ himself. We might read the depth of his anxiety in his prayer before the beginning of [...]

Prophet’s Guidance in the Eid Sacrifice

- The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never missed offering the sacrifice. He used to slaughter two rams after Eid prayer. - He ﷺ said: “All the days of tashreeq[1] are days of slaughter.” - He ﷺ said: “Whoever slaughtered before the [Eid] prayer has not done a sacrifice; it is only some meat he has presented to his family.”[2] - He ﷺ told them to slaughter a six month old sheep or a five year old camel or a cow that had begun its third year. - It was his guidance to select a good animal for sacrifice without any defects, and he prohibited offering a sacrifice with [...]

The frankness of the Prophet (peace be upon him) (1)

There are many incidents and lessons in the biography of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ which is an educational school from which Muslims inspire in every time and place the rulings and guidelines which suit them. I wish there had been an objective study to the biography of the Prophet [I mean dividing the Prophet's biography into topics] as (the topics of Tafsir) in which incidents and events are arranged according to their topics not according to time such as the topic of Jihad, Salah, manners, creeds, transactions, and other issues, then commenting and benefitting from them such as Fiqh-us-Sirah [understanding the Prophet's biography]. This [...]

Zakah

Zakah is an obligation that was proven by decisive proofs from the Qur'an and the Sunnah then the consensus confirmed its obligation. The Lord of all the Worlds has undertaken to explain its ways of spending and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) explained most of its details. Zakah is one of the fifth pillars of Islam because it was connected with Salah more than several and thirty times in the Glorious Qur'an. Zakah is part of the general finance system in the treasury of the state whether in resources or channels of payment. Therefore, our scholars divided Bayt-ul-Mal [...]

The frankness of the Prophet (peace be upon him) (2)

Wisdom and politics Hypocrites were a big hindrance before the call to Islam and did every possible thing to destroy the religion from inside, unfasten the Muslim society, and weaken their power. However, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ managed to avoid clash by his wisdom and policy, guarded the security of Medina and its people, and overpassed this hindrance by patience, forbearance, and good word. He faced their mockery with tolerance and good treatment to the extent that he was seeking forgiveness for them until he was forbidden to do so. However, some Companions could not stand that situation, particularly when `Abdullah [...]

Benefits of Zakah

From its benefits are the following: It strengthens the bonds of love between the rich and the poor, for it is from human nature that a person shows affinity to those who treat them well. It purifies and cleanses the soul and distances it from greed and avarice, as indicated in the Noble Qur’an when Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) says:  “Take Sadaqah (alms) from their wealth in order to purify them and sanctify them with it.”[Surah at‐Tawbah (9):103] It causes Muslims to grow accustomed to performing acts of generosity, hospitality and empathy towards those who are in need. It brings increase [...]

Samples from the Prophet’s tolerance

"An adolescent from Quraysh came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) to ask him for permission for adultery. However, the Companions wanted to beat him because of his boldness to the Prophet (peace be upon him), but the Prophet (peace be upon him) had another opinion. He said to him: Come closer. The young man came closer. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Would you like it (unlawful sex) for your mother? He said: No, by Allah, may I be ransomed for you. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Neither do the people like it for their mothers. [...]

The Etiquettes and Sunan of Fasting

Some aspects of fasting are obligatory (fard) and others are recommended (mustahab). We should make sure that we eat and drink something at suhoor (the time before dawn), and that we delay it until just before the adhaan of Fajr. The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: “Have suhoor, for in suhoor there is blessing (barakah).” [1]  “Suhoor is blessed food, and it involves being different from the people of the Book. What a good suhoor for the believer is dates.” [2] One should not delay iftaar (breakfast after dusk), because the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: “The people remain upon goodness so long [...]

The Conquest of Makkah (1/2)

Preparations When Islam was well-established in the hearts of the Muslims, Allah decided that the time had come for His Messenger and his community to enter Makkah. They would purify the Ka'bah so that it would be a blessed place of guidance for the whole world. They would restore Makkah to its previous status and the sacred city would offer security for all people once again. A broken treaty In the Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah it was laid down that anyone who wanted to enter into a treaty and alliance with the Messenger of Allah should be able to do so; [...]
