AL-AKHDHARI: The Book Of Ibadah Part 30: IF YOU SEE SNAKE OR SCORPION DURING SALAAT

*AL-AKHDHARI: The Book Of Ibadah*


*Part 30: IF YOU SEE SNAKE OR SCORPION DURING SALAAT*


If ones mind wonders a little into worldly affairs his reward lessens but his Salaat is not invalidated. 


Whoever pushes away someone about to pass in front of him or makes Sujood on the side of 

his forehead or on a roll or two rolls of his turban there is nothing on him. There is likewise, no harm for involuntary vomiting or belching in Salaat. 


The forgetfulness of the follower in Salaat is borne by the Imam except it be a case of omitting a Fard (obligatory) act. 


If one following an Imam in Salaat forgets or dozes off or is pressed for time to make the Ruku’ in other than the first Rak’at and he hopes to catch up with the Imam before the latter 

arises from the second Sajda, he should go to Ruku’ and then join the Imam. If however, he has no such hope of catching up with the Imam, he skips the Ruku’ and follows his Imam and then makes up an extra Rak’at to replace this one after the Imam’s Salaam.

 

If on the other hand, he forgets the Sujood or is pressed for time or dozes off until the Imam stands up for the next Rak’at, he should go to Sujood even if he desires to catch up with the Imam before the latter goes to Ruku’. Otherwise, he skips it and follows the Imam and makes up for this later with an additional Rak’at. When he has made up with the additional Rak’at, no Sujoods would be required of him unless he has doubts concerning the Ruku’ or Sujood. 


Whoever is approached by a scorpion or snake (while in Salaat) and he kills it, there is nothing on him unless his action takes a long time or he turns away from the Qibla (in the process) in which case he breaks his Salaat. 


Whoever is unsure whether he is in the Witr or the last Rak’at of Asshaf’i, should make it the last Rak’at of Asshaf’i and then do the Sujood after Salaam then the Witr. Whoever talks 

between Asshaf’i and Al-Witr forgetfully has nothing on him. If however, he does so deliberately it is abhorrent but there is still nothing on him.

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

Friday and it's dignity.

 Friday and it's dignity. Alhamdulillah, Allah says, Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوۡمِ ٱلۡجُمُعَةِ فَٱسۡعَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُواْ ٱلۡبَيۡعَۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew. Friday is the best day of the week because it was the day Adam was created, the day he entered paradise and the day he was removed from paradise. it was also the day he died and the hour(qiyaamah) will not come except on this day. Sahih. It was narrated from Aws bin Aws that: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever washes (ghassala) and performs ghusl, comes early to the masjid and sits near the imam and does not engage in idle talk, he will have for every step he takes (the reward of) a year's worth of good deeds, fasting it and...
