I'm looking for a Quran recitation (mp3, video, application, website, ...) in Arabic which is just a simple reading of the verses without Tajweed enhancement.

For a very long time, there was a barren piece of land. Someone occupied it and began cultivating it. A year after his occupation, we checked the records with the Patwari and the Revenue Department, and it turned out that the land was entirely ours — it had always been registered in our family’s name. The court and the legal authorities have now ruled in our favor. The cultivator has no legal share in the records; there is only a local tradition that our ancestors used to farm this land long ago, but it hasn’t been cultivated by us for the last fifty years. I also heard a narration saying that in Islam, if the owner does not cultivate the land for three years, it can be taken back from him. So from a religious perspective, what is the ruling? According to the law, we have the right to take back the land — but according to Islam, should we give it up?

I’m going to answer my own question because there aren’t any posts, in fairness, that talk about this topic in the English language. This is something I wish my younger self could have read. ***But the question pertains to the definition of the word “kuba” or ”kubah” (كوبة) and does it relate to the topic of music in the religion of sunni Islam?*** > Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As: > > عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو،أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ وَالْكُوبَةِ وَالْغُبَيْرَاءِ وَقَال"‏ كُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ ابْنُ سَلاَمٍ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ الْغُبَيْرَاءُ السُّكُرْكَةُ تُعْمَلُ مِنَ الذُّرَةِ شَرَابٌ يَعْمَلُهُ الْحَبَشَةُ ‏. > >The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade wine (khamr), game of chance (maysir), drum (kubah), and wine made from millet (ghubayrah), saying: Every intoxicant is forbidden. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Sallam Abu 'Ubaid said: Ghubairah was an intoxicant liquor made from millet. This wine was made by the Abyssinians Abu Dawood 3685: Book 26, Hadith 3677 as well as > Narrated Ibn Abbas: > >عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ وَفْدَ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ، قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِيمَ نَشْرَبُ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَشْرَبُوا فِي الدُّبَّاءِ وَلاَ فِي الْمُزَفَّتِ وَلاَ فِي النَّقِيرِ وَانْتَبِذُوا فِي الأَسْقِيَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَإِنِ اشْتَدَّ فِي الأَسْقِيَةِ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَصُبُّوا عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوِ الرَّابِعَةِ ‏"‏ أَهْرِيقُوهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَىَّ أَوْ حُرِّمَ الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ وَالْكُوبَةُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَكُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ فَسَأَلْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ بَذِيمَةَ عَنِ الْكُوبَةِ قَالَ الطَّبْلُ ‏.‏ > >The deputation of ‘Abd al-Qais asked (the prophet):From which(vessels)should we drink ? He (the prophet) replied: Do not drink from the pumpkins, vessels smeared with pitch, and hollow stumps , and steep dates in skins. They asked: Messenger of Allah, if it ferments? He replied: infuse water in it. They asked: Messenger of Allah...” (repeating the same words). He replied to them third or fourth time: Pour it away. He then said: Allah has forbidden me, or he said: He has forbidden me wine, game of chance and kubah(drums). He said: Every intoxicant is unlawful. Sufyan said: I asked ‘All b. Badhimah about kubah . He replied: Drum. Abu Dawood 3696: Book 26, Hadith 3687 *side note, (الدُّبَّاءِ) *dubba'e* is not a pumpkin per-se but more precisely calabash or long melon because pumpkins were not discovered until Columbus in the 15th century. A bit of an anachronism since the hadith takes place 1,400 years ago.

i have a friend who is a male online and we text and sometimes play games together. i have no intention of being anything more than friends and i know i have a strong mind which can refrain from it. we have never seen eachothers face and sometimes we call while playing games but thats it and we only call so we can play the game and have more fun and talk about the game instead of texting. can someone who is well educated tell me if being friends with the opposite gender is haram? and if it has been said in the Qur'an? i have tried searching for answers but everyone gives me a different answer.

As you possibly know, Aql/Aghl (intellect) is regarded as one of the sources of Fiqh in Islam. In Shia Islam, there are four sources of Fiqh: Qur'an, Sunnah, Ijmaa’ and Aql. (www.wikifeqh.ir ) But as much as I know, Aql is considered as a source which has higher position/place (in Shia's view) in comparison with the view of other Mazhabs (sects). So, my query is that: **What is the reason that Shia (Twelver Shia) hold Aql in a higher position in comparison with other sects?**

It was mentioned in a previous post clarifying a report by anas ibn malik ra in sunan al kubra al beyhaqi 2/320 that the slave girls of umar ra were serving with their hair uncovered and hitting their breasts and the confusion arose from the word تَضْرِبُ which was used to denote "strikes or hits" however this narration was reworded to تَضْطَرِبُ which denotes "shakes" changing the meaning to "serving with their hair uncovered and breasts shaking" in Book of Knowledge of Sunnah and Athar 3/146 (4071) authored by beyhaqi as well. What accounts for the difference in wording and which is the correct narration? initial post in question: https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/79569/umar-and-sex-slaves-hadiths Narrations: https://shamela.ws/book/2863/1247 and https://shamela.ws/book/7861/3655

I like to dance in front of the mirror alone. No one sees me dancing. I don’t put any music and just dance alone in front of the mirror to the music or song in my brain. Is it haram to do that? I know that dancing in front of non mahrams is haraam and if danced in front of mahrams, then there should be no any vulgar moves. But my question is that is it permissible to dance alone in front of the mirror with no music or songs but with a song inside my head or I’m singing it. That is my question.

Asalamu Alaykum. I play a roblox game called "Bee Swarm Simulator" and the overall theme of this game to me is halal. You just collect bees and go to fields and collect pollen from flowers and just collect bee types and upgrade gear. However, I have one concern with it. There is something called a "Wind shrine" in the game and from the name its a shrine. You dont actually worship it but you have to use it for quests and to use it you have to "offer" or just give a certain item to it in exchange for something else. I want to know if that is haram and shirk in anyway?

i am not sure if this question is Duplicate because i can't find the similar question so i will just ask. Currently I work far from my hometown, and in my work location, the local community begins Ramadhan one day earlier. However, in my hometown, Ramadhan begins the next day. Since I will be returning to my hometown to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, I am wondering if it is permissible for me to follow the Eid date in my hometown, meaning I would be adding an extra day to my fasting, as the local community in my work location may observe Eid a day earlier. Is it permissible in Islam to follow the earliest start of Ramadhan based on moon sighting or calculations in my work location, while also following the latest date for Eid al-Fitr in my hometown, even if this means being out of sync with the majority of my workplace local community?
