Guidelines To Intimacy In Islam


Episode 9


Preferred Times for Sex


Three Opinions


1. The best time for sex is anytime, be it day or night, when one is relaxed and the mood for sensual relations are prevailing in both spouses.


2. Some scholars consider the latter part of the night to be the best time for sex. This was also the usual practice of Rasulullaah صلى الله عليه وسلم ,although he is reported to have slept with his wives at other times as well.Abu lshaaq relates, "I asked al-Aswad ibn Yazid regarding what Sayyida 'A'isha informed him about the Tahajjud of Rasulullaah صلى الله عليه وسلم . She ('Ā'ishah)said:

"He would sleep in the early part of the night, and wake up in the latter part [to offer Salaah]. If he then wished to fulfil his desire with his wife, he would fulfil his desire, and then sleep." (Sahih Muslim 739)

For those who find it difficult to wait for the end of the night, a practical solution is to eat a light meal in the early part of the evening. In this way, the stomach will not be full when having coitus in the earlier part of the night.


3. Sexual relations on Friday and the night preceding Friday is also recommended and some consider this virtuous. Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali states in his renowned Ihya Ulum al-Din that according to some scholars, sex on Friday and the night preceding it is recommended (mustahab) due to the Hadith narrated by Aws Thaqafi-al Aws ibn regarding the reward of one bathing and causing the spouse to bathe on Fridays, quoted earlier. 


"Whoever causes [his spouse] to bathe and bathes himself on Friday, then goes out early [for Friday prayers], walks and does not ride, and takes his seat close to the imam and listens attentively, and does not indulge in futility, will earn the reward of a year's fasting and praying at night for every step he takes."

(See: Ithaaf al-Saadaat al-Muttaqin bi Sharh, Ihya 'Ulum al-Din 6:175)

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 ...

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w...

 ﷽ ➖➖➖ *IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE* ➖➖➖ *An obligation upon every Muslim* ➖➖➖  Allah ﷻ says  *وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ الأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا* _And He taught Adam all the names of everything_ Meaning, the names that people use, such as human, animal, sky, earth, land, sea, horse, donkey, and so forth, including the names of the other species" *ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَـئِكَةِ* _Then He showed them to the angels_ Meaning, the creations.
