Resolutions of Iftaa' Board

Date Added : 05-09-2018

Resolution No. (264) by the Board of Iftaa', Research and Islamic Studies:

"Prohibition of  Building Graveyard from Mosque`s Donations"

Date: (18/Thu Al-Hijjah/1439 AD), corresponding to (30/8/2018AH).

 

On its eleventh session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the letter sent from His Excellency, the Mayor of Barqash Municipality, and it read as follow: 

I have enclosed a letter from the Chairman of Khfur Rakeb`s Local Council in which he requested the ruling of Sharia on deducting a certain amount-from the donations raised in favor of Mos`ab Ibn Umayer's Mosque-to build an Islamic graveyard in that area since the old one is overcrowded. 
After prolonged deliberations, the Board decided the following:
It is impermissible to spend the donations in a purpose other than that for which they were raised since Mosques' Committees are entrusted with spending donations in the exact disbursement channel for which they were collected in the first place. This is because, Allah, The Most Exalted, Said (What means): "God doth command you to render back your Trusts to those to whom they are due" [An-Nisa' 58]. In conclusion, donations made in favor of the mosque should only be spent for the benefit of the mosque itself and spending them in building a graveyard is prohibited. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is keeping money in and taking profits from the Islamic Bank lawful? 

If Allah Wills this is lawful, because they stipulate on theselves to work in accordance to the guidlines of Islamic Law. And Alalh Knows Best.

I am a disabled woman who has vaginal discharges and can`t control her urine. Therefore, I combine prayers. Is that permissible?

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

According to the Hanbali doctrine, it is permissible for the sick to combine prayers. In your case (Asker), it is better that you delay the noon prayer until a few minutes before the afternoon prayer in order to minimize the time span between the two and perform each alone. In addition, you can do the same with sunset and evening prayers. Finally, we ask Allah to bless you with recovery. And Allah Knows Best.

Does bleeding from the body, such as from wounds, invalidate ablution?

Bleeding doesn't invalidate person's ablution. And Allah Knows Best.

Is it permissible to abort a less than one-month-old fetus?

All perfect praise be to Allah the Lord of The Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
Abortion is forbidden; therefore, it isn`t allowed except if endangers the life of the mother and such thing should be confirmed by god- fearing, specialized, trustworthy medical doctors. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
