Resolution No.(194): "The Prohibition of Removing the Uterus of Challenged Girls and Society’s Responsibility Towards them"

Date Added : 23-11-2015

 

Resolution  No.(194) (2/2014) by The Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

 "The Prohibition of Removing the Uterus of Challenged Girls and Society’s Responsibility Towards them"

Date: (7/Rabi`a Al-Awwal/1435 A.H), corresponding to (9/1/2014 A.D)

All perfect praise is due to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds; and may His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

On its eleventh session held on the above given date, the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies reviewed the ruling of Sharia on removing the uterus of mentally challenged girls under the pretext that it causes health risks and affects their personal hygiene. Having taken the technical opinion of educational specialists and doctors into consideration and having become familiar with the negative effects of the aforementioned procedure, the Board decided what follows:

Ablating an organ that has been created by Allah is impermissible, save in hopeless cases. As for those who are physically, or mentally challenged, we see no valid excuse for allowing  such kind of procedure since it violates Allah`s creation, causes health risks due to cutting and surgery, and leads to negative effects that facilitate offending these girls and inflicting harm on them.

It is the duty of their parents and guardians to protect them against any harm. Society should also protect them against different types of abuse through taking all the necessary measures which guarantee that, because it is the right of the weak to be protected, and failure to perform that role makes the aforesaid parties sinful and that sin multiplies every time he/she (The challenged) is being abused. Therefore, families that are afflicted with challenged children as well as society should  exercise patience when dealing with them and seek the recompense from Allah. Our Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said in this regard: “All of you are guardians and responsible for your wards and the things under your care.”  {Bukhari and Muslim}. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

I want to buy a house by having a loan from a bank?

If taking a loan from usrious banks it is impermissible; on the other hand, if this took place through Islamic ones then it is permissible to get the loan, since Allah the Most Exalted Said (What means): "And Allah has made buying lawful and forbidden usury (riba)." And Allah Knows Best.

 

 

 

Is it permissible for a young lady to wear a short skirt, which is above her knee, over pants?

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.
In Islam, it isn`t permissible for a woman to wear garment revealing her beautiful shape and arousing men`s sexual desire. This is whether the garment is transparent or skin-tight showing the size of her private parts. A Muslim woman`s garment must be loose and not revealing since she will be accountable for this before Allah The Almighty on the Day of Judgement. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best. 

What is the ruling on the cessation of blood after (40) days from delivery, but later continued sporadically during two days of Ramadan?

Once postpartum bleeding (Nifas) ceases, and the woman is certain that it won`t reoccur, then she becomes ritually pure and so she is free to make Ghusl (purificatory bath), pray, and fast. If the bleeding reoccurs before fifteen days from its cessation, and before the end of (60) days after delivery, then the ruling on postpartum bleeding is effective, and her fasting and prayer are null and void, thus she must make up the fasting that she missed and not the prayer during those particular days.

What is the ruling on performing Umrah after the latest expansion of the Mas`aa (the passage between As-Safa and Al-Marwah), is it permissible, or not?

Yes, it is permissible to perform Umrah after the latest expansion of the Sa`y area since making Sa`y between As-Safa and Al- Marwah is already observed. And Allah Knows Best.
