Summarized Fatawaa
• : One person prays in a certain spot of the mosque, and gets angry if someone else prayed there; what is the ruling ?
Prophet Mohammad(PBUH) prohibited a Muslim from reserving a certain spot in the mosque when performing prayers, and it is the religious duty of other Muslims to advise this person that whoever takes a spot first is the one worthiest of it.
• Is a woman`s face an Awrah (a private part) that should be covered?
During prayer, a woman`s whole body is a private part except the hands and the face. Outside the time of prayer, scholars agree that a woman should put on her Islamic wear to avoid temptation.
• What is the ruling when the duration of the monthly period varies, and sporadically increases ?
If the period didn`t exceed (15) days from the first seeing of blood discharges until its end including the times of temporary cessation, then it is menses. But, if the period exceeded (15) days, then the woman experiencing this is Mostahadah(bleeding outside the time of monthly period), and should abide by her regular period, and consult one of the scholars.
• What is the ruling on giving Zakah(obligatory charity)to one`s relatives?
It is impermissible to pay Zakah to one`s origins( parents and grandparents) because providing for them is an obligation on their branches (sons and daughters )if they were poor, but it is permissible to give some of the Zakah money to relatives whose provision isn`t due on the giver of the Zakah.
