RAMADAN (FASTING )(Episode 11)

 Muslims Till Death:

AS SALAAMU ALAYKUM WARAHMATULLAH WABARAKAATUHU. LET'S START TONIGHT'S EDUCATION. OUR TOPIC IS 911 👇.                                                                              *RAMADAN (FASTING )(Episode 11)*

▪️If a person suffers from a nosebleed, his fast is still valid, because it is something beyond his control. (Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 10/264).

▪️If he has gum ulcers or his gums bleed after using the siwaak, it is not permissible for him to swallow the blood; he has to spit it out. But if some blood enters his throat by accident, and he did not mean for that to happen, there is no need to worry. Similarly, if vomit rises in his throat then goes back to his stomach without him intending for this to happen, his fast is still valid.
(Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 10/254).

▪️With regard to mucus coming from the head (nose and sinuses) and phlegm coming from the chest by coughing and clearing the throat, if swallowed before it reaches the mouth, it does not break the fast, because it is a problem which all people have; but if it is swallowed after it reaches the mouth, this breaks the fast.
However, if it is swallowed unintentionally, it does not break the fast.
___*PAGE 3*___.                                      ✍️...

▪️Inhaling water vapours, as may happen to people working in desalination plants, does not break the fast.
(Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 10/276).

▪️It is disliked (makrooh) to taste food unnecessarily, because this has the risk that the fast may be broken. Examples of cases where it is necessary to taste food include a mother chewing food for an infant when she has no other way to feed him, tasting food to make sure that it is OK, and tasting something when making a purchase.
___*PAGE 4*___.                                    ✍️...

It was reported that Ibn ‘Abbaas said: “There is nothing wrong with tasting vinegar or anything that one wishes to buy.”
(Classed as hasan in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 4/86; See al-Fath, commentary on Baab Ightisaal al-Saa’im, Kitaab al-Siyaam)

▪️Using siwaak is Sunnah for the one who is fasting at all times of the day, even if it is wet.
___*PAGE 5*___.                                  ✍️...

If a one who is fasting uses a siwaak and detects some heat or other taste from it and swallows it, or if he takes the siwaak out of his mouth and sees saliva on it then puts it back in his mouth and swallows the saliva, this does not break his fast.
(al-Fataawa al-Sa’diyyah, 245).
_ _
He should avoid any substance that can be diluted, such as the green siwaak, or siwaak that has any extra flavour added to it, like lemon or mint.
_ _
He should spit out any small pieces that come off the siwaak in his mouth; he should not swallow them deliberately, but if he swallows them accidentally, there is no harm done.
___*PAGE 6*___.                                     ✍️...

▪️If a fasting person is injured or suffers a nosebleed, or gets water or petrol in his mouth by accident, this does not break his fast. If he gets dust, smoke or flies in his mouth by accident, this does not break his fast either.
_ _
Things that one cannot avoid swallowing, like one’s saliva, or dust from grinding flour, do not break the fast.
_ _
If a person gathers a lot of saliva in his mouth then swallows it on purpose, this does not break the fast, according to the most correct opinion.
(Al-Mughni by Ibn Qudaamah, 3/106).
___*PAGE 7*___.                                    ✍️...

▪️If tears reach one’s throat, or if a person applies oil to his hair or moustache, or uses henna, and then detects the taste of it in his throat, this does not break his fast. Using henna, kohl or oil does not break the fast.
(See Majmoo’ al-Fataawa, 25/233, 25/245).
_ _
This also applies to creams used to moisturize and soften the skin.
___*PAGE 8*___.                                     ✍️...

▪️There is nothing wrong with smelling pleasant fragrances, using perfume or applying scented creams and the like. There is nothing wrong with a fasting person using bukhoor (incense), so long as he does not use it as snuff.
(Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 10/314).

▪️It is better not to use toothpaste during the day, and to leave it till night-time, because it is too strong.
(Al-Majaalis, Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, p. 72).

▪️To be on the safe side, it is better for the fasting person not to be treated with cupping (hijaamah).
There is a strong difference of opinion on this matter.
___*PAGE 9*___.                                    ✍️...

Ibn Taymiyah suggested that the one who has cupping done breaks his fast, but the one who does it does not break his fast.

▪️Smoking breaks the fast, and it cannot be used as an excuse not to fast. How can a sin be taken as an excuse?!

▪️Immersing oneself in water or wrapping oneself in wet clothes in order to cool down does not break the fast. There is nothing wrong with pouring water over one’s head to obtain relief from heat and thirst.
___*PAGE 10*___. 
✍️...
                                 
_ _
Swimming is disliked, because it might make one break the fast (by swallowing water).
_ _
If a person’s work involves diving and he can be sure that he will not get water in his mouth, there is nothing wrong with this.

▪️If a person eats, drinks or has intercourse, thinking that it is still night, then he realizes that dawn has already broken, there is no harm done, because the aayah clearly states that it is permissible to do these things until one is sure that dawn has come.

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 ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
