Resolutions of Iftaa' Board

Date Added : 15-07-2020

Resolution No. (290) (10 /2020) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"Jordan`s Position Paper on Abortion"

Date: (29th of Shawwal, 1441 AH), corresponding to (21/6/2020).

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

In its 9nth meeting held on the above date, the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies reviewed the letter of the Prime Minister Dr. Omar Razzaz in which he requested studying the attached documents about "Jordan`s Position Paper on Abortion"  and delivering the ruling of Sharia on that.

After thorough consideration, the Iftaa` Board decided the following:

The content of the paragraphs attached under the heading "Jordan`s Position Paper on Abortion" complies with the Ijtihad related to the ruling of Sharia on abortion and in which the objectives of Sharia were taken into consideration.

We (Iftaa` Board) recommend making some changes that are deemed essential for the completion of the Sharia opinion in the above paper. They are as follows:

First: "Raising awareness of the unlawful and the unsafe sexual relations within all groups of society, (P.6)." We recommend changing "Raising awareness" into "Warning against" while changing "Unlawful" and "Unsafe, wherever they occur, into "Relationships outside of valid marriage."

Second: About the heading "Including Sexual Education, (P.5)" We recommend adding "In a manner consistent with our social values and the principles of Islamic Law."

Third: We recommend adding the General Iftaa` Department to the implementers in the paragraphs entitled "Including Sexual Education" and "Raising religious awareness."

Fourth: "Opening reproductive health clinics for the young, male and female, (P.5)." We recommend linking this with "In a manner consistent with our social values and the principles of Islamic Law."

Fifth: We also recommend linking the same phrase with "By nomination from the competent authorities," in margin No.(12), the system of forming an ethics board. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

What should one who forgot to offer the second Sajda during congregational prayer, and remembered it before the end of the prayer do?

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds.                                                                                                                                                          Whoever forgets a pillar of prayer while in congregation must follow the lead of the Imam, and after the latter offers Tasleem, he should offer one Rakah, then perform Sujood As-Sahw (prostration of forgetfulness). And Allah Knows Best.

What should a woman, who has given several births during different months of Ramadhaan, and didn`t make up for them in addition to forgetting the exact number of the days and years in which she had missed fasting, do?

She should make up the missed days of Ramadan after estimating their number, and paying the ransom (in food) due on each missed day that she had delayed making up. In addition, she is obliged to repay the ransom according to the number of years if she was able to fast before that time, but didn`t.

 If a disposable water bottle has the logo (Al-Aziz Water Shop) ,is it allowed to throw it away considering that (Al-Aziz) is one of Allah`s beautiful names?

All perfect praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
You can remove some of the letters so that the word isn`t read as (Al-Aziz). And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

Is it permissible to pray with a heater (stove) in front of me?

There is no harm in praying with a heater in front of you, as long as you do not intend to venerate the fire or imitate those who worship it. And Allah Knows Best.
