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 ...

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...
