In Sahih Muslim 2689 , it is mentioned that: > Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) as saying Allah has mobile > (squads) of angels, who have no other work (to attend to but) to > follow the assemblies of Dhikr and when they find such assemblies in > which there is Dhikr (of Allah) they sit in them and some of them > surround the others with their wings till the space between them and > the sky of the world is fully covered, and when they disperse (after > the assembly of Dhikr is adjourned) they go upward to the heaven and > Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, asks them although He is best > informed about them: Where have you come from? They say: We come from > Thine servants upon the earth who had been glorifying Thee (reciting > Subhan Allah), uttering Thine Greatness (saying Allah o-Akbar) and > uttering Thine Oneness (La ilaha ill Allah) and praising Thee > (uttering al-Hamdu Lillah) and begging of Thee. Be would say: What do > they beg of Me? They would say: They beg of Thee the Paradise of > Thine. He (God) would say: Have they seen My Paradise? They said: No, > our Lord. He would say: (What it would be then) if they were to see > Mine Paradise? They (the angels) said: They seek Thine protection. He > (the Lord) would say: Against what do they seek protection of Mine? > They (the angels) would say: Our Lord, from the Hell-Fire. He (the > Lord) would say: Have they seen My Fire? They would say: No. He (the > Lord) would say: What it would be if they were to see My Fire? They > would say: They beg of Thee forgiveness. He would say: I grant pardon > to them, and confer upon them what they ask for and grant them > protection against which they seek protection. They (the angels) would > again say: Our Lord, there is one amongst them such and such simple > servant who happened to pass by (that assembly) and sat there along > with them (who had been participating in that assembly). He (the Lord) > would say: I also grant him pardon, for they are a people the > seat-fellows of whom are in no way unfortunate. The word used here is مَجَالِسَ الذِّكْرِ It is mentioned in Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3510 : > Anas bin Malik [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that the > Messenger of Allah said: “When you pass by the gardens of Paradise, > them feast.” They said: “And what are the gardens of Paradise?” He > said: “The circles of remembrance.” The word used here is حِلَقُ الذِّكْرِ In al-Mu’jam al-Kabīr 6039 it is mentioned that: > Sahl ibn Hanzalah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and > blessings be upon him, said, “No people sit together to remember Allah > Almighty and stand to leave until a heavenly caller says to them: > Stand and your sins are forgiven by Allah! Your bad deeds have been > replaced with good deeds!” The word used here is مَجْلِسًا يَذْكُرُونَ اللهَ In bangla it is called জিকিরের মজলিস In Is Group Dhikr Permissible? it is said that: > Dhikr in general, if it involves raising the voice and reciting in > unison, is a Bid`ah (innovation) that has been introduced into the > religion and was not the practice of the righteous early generations. My question is, how should we create a مَجَالِسَ الذِّكْرِ * Is it like giving a khutbah, where one person speak and others listen. If so, then what should be the topic of the discussion. * Is it a place where a group of people sit together and say subhanallah, alhamdulillah etc. and an imam coordinate it Please let me know what is a مَجَالِسَ الذِّكْرِ and what to be done there and how? * How do we sit? In circle or facing one direction. * Do we need a coordinator? If so, then what should he (the coordinator) do? Please give us some reference so that we know how to do it and get all these blessings.

Is sunnah prayer from Allah or from muhammad (saw), because it is called sunnah and sunnah is related to muhammad ( saw).

Is it ok to missed suhur during sunnah fasting? I know that it is ok for the fardh fast during ramadhan, but I'm worried that there might be different ruling for sunnah fasting. I tried to search the web, but the results only shows those during ramadhan.

Assalamualaikum is the word يَدَاهُ in Quran 5:64 a dual or plural in the Arabic language someone told me thats its more than two.

Assalamualaikum, I have a question about ruling on masturbation in Islam. I lost my husband 3year and 5 months ago. This is still very painful for me. After losing him, I am having panic attacks sometimes and anxiety problems. One day when I was having panic attack I tried to commit suicide coz it's really hard for me losing him. Lots of things are going in my life. it seems like the darkest time of my life. So in some weak moments when my tensions n worries covers me I do masturbate to control my mind. I do namaz n fast. Ive never been in haram relationship always protect myself as a amanat of my husband. This was my thinking from my childhood. But after losing him life became very hard. To protect myself for falling into something haram, I do masturbation. But I did not make it as habit. I did it then I repent n after months I did it again. Then again I make toba. Was searching some ruling about this but never find anything strong. Can someone show some light of this matter? I do not know what to do?

As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, I hope this message finds you well. I have a question that has been deeply troubling me and affecting my faith, and I sincerely seek your guidance and knowledge. I am struggling to understand how Allah, who is Al-Rahman (The Most Merciful), can punish someone for eternity in Hell. If a person lives for a short time in this world — perhaps 70 or 80 years — how can their mistakes, no matter how great, justify an eternal punishment? From my understanding, even if someone fully knows the truth of Islam yet rejects it until death, the concept of eternal punishment feels difficult to reconcile with Allah’s infinite mercy. In my human perspective, I feel that I would never punish someone endlessly for a finite lifetime of mistakes. Of course, I know my understanding is limited, but this creates a deep conflict in my heart. The only reasoning I can think of is that perhaps the soul, even after being in Hell for unimaginable lengths of time, still refuses to accept Allah — but then again, Allah created us and has complete power over our nature. Could He not have created us all to eventually enter Jannah, even if at different levels, so that His perfect justice and perfect mercy are both fulfilled? I ask this question with humility and sincerity, not out of disrespect, but because I genuinely wish to understand and strengthen my iman. I would be deeply grateful for your explanation. JazakAllahu khayran

As salamualaikum After researching duas for better eyesight I’ve come across a few pages and videos claiming to recite Verse 22 of Surah Qaf then blowing it on your finger an rubing it on your eyes. Somehow that doesn’t really sound authentic/ part of the sunnah to me, which is why it would be helpful if someone of knowledge would help me clarify this matter.

I recently came across the quote that says to read Quran after the burial of ones parents for the time in which a camel is slaughtered and distributed i wanna know how much time is enough or it takes to do that please help.

Assalamulekum Please give me advice.... I always perform this step to remove the major impurity. Is this correct?. Step-by-Step Ghusl Procedure 1. *Wash the hands:* Wash your hands up to the wrists three times. 2. *Wash the private parts:* Wash your private parts (front and back) three times. 3. *Perform Wudu:* Perform Wudu (ablution) as you would for prayer, but do not wash your feet yet. 4. *Pour water over the head:* Pour water over your head three times, making sure to wet your hair and scalp. 5. *Pour water over the body:* Pour water over your entire body, starting from the right shoulder and then the left shoulder. Make sure to wet all parts of your body, including your arms, legs, and feet. 6. *Wash the feet:* Wash your feet up to the ankles three times. Then what about rinsing nose and mouth in wudu during ghusl?? Is this acceptable in ghusl??? Please help me i m really confused.....

Recently I have been wondering regarding something that I've been hearing since childhood. when we stand in the congregation for the obligatory prayer making the lines, the imam says in arabic a few phrases. i can make out that what he says is to make the lines in accordance with the sunnah (*our mother tongue is not arabic*) my question is that is it a must to say that in arabic everytime before we start the prayer?, or is it sunnah?, or are they doing it just to remind us to make the lines straight as its kind of like the responsibility of the imam.

My daughter accidentally without our knowledge drank her aunt's breast milk which she collected in a feeder. So is her aunt now my daughter's foster mother? She drank only two to three drops.

In a country with a large population of both Muslims and Christians is it permissable for a muslim politician seeking both Christians and Muslims votes to donate furniture to a Church as he also donate to mosques proving that he would be a just and a fair leader if elected?

Assalamualaikum, Recently alhamdulillah I started to (try to) apply the Deen as best as possible and I have lots of shorts in my possession that do not cover the awrah properly (are a little over the knee) As a solution can I wear tight leggings (cover 3/4 of the leg) under those shorts? It's more comfortable than wearing pants and I can still make use of the shorts, but I'm not sure if it's ok for my knee to be viewable in tight clothing publicly. If it's Haram completely, can I donate these shorts to poor people?

For the past few days, I have been considering studying Islam in depth. I have a strong desire to become a scholar—such as a Sheikh, Mufti, Maulana, Mu’allim, or Allama—following in the footsteps of renowned scholars like Nasiruddin Albani, Zakir Naik, Taqi Usmani, and Mufti Menk. At 28 years old, I have decided to dedicate the rest of my life to the field of Da’wah, but I want to first acquire proper and authentic knowledge. Being born and raised in a Muslim family, I have a basic understanding of Islam, but I feel that it is not sufficient for effectively spreading the message of Islam. Currently, I have limited knowledge about prominent madrasas and little to no connection with Islamic scholars. Is there a way for me to study Islam on my own, or is formal education in a madrasa necessary to achieve deep Islamic knowledge?

Are there any guidelines provided by Islam on **how** and **when** to protest? And **how** to decide the **magnitude** of protests and **who** will decide it? Please cite references from the Holy Quran, Ahadeth, Islamic history, and the life of Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) or Ahleybayt.

On a recent visit to a Muslim graveyard, I see people put rose petals on the graves of their loved ones. On inquiry, I was informed that the Prophet (SAW) once put a leaf on the grave to reduce the punishment of that grave's occupant. So my queries are: 1. Does putting leaves/flowers reduce one's punishment? 2. Can leaves as used by the Prophet be substituted by flowers?

Assalamolaikum, my name is Ibrahim and I just had a quick question so basically for quite a long time I’ve been wearing this Silver Chain with a Palestine Pendant on it. I have been wearing it for months and then one day my uncle he told me there was a Hadith which stated that it was haram to wear a chain then I did further research and found the Hadith and also found an ayah which stated it too, further more I read it all and it said men were not to imitate women and vice versa and the Hadith stated about NECKLACES and bracelets but not CHAINS would a chain be considered a necklace or no? And i also read that a watch would be Permissible because it had a cause and a use, but so does my chain Becuase it shows that I stand with Palestine. So basically that is all I am curious about is it still haram to wear my Silver Chain with a Palestine Pendant. Jazakullah.

I have come to know that both Sunnah Zaidah and Mustahab are not mandatory in islam and prophet(pbuh) encouraged us to do those. Then what is the (main) differences between those two terms. And if they are same why two terms are used and taught as two separate parts in islamic studies? I searched this online but didn’t even get any answers.
