The General Iftaa` Department Condemns the Insulting Cartoons about the Holy Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)

 

Praise be to the Lord of all worlds. Prayers and peace be upon our Prophet, Mohammad, his family and his companions.

Allah the Almighty has sent His Prophets who are the best of His creatures, the most beloved to Him and the most honored in his sight as guidance and mercy to all of humanity. We, Muslims, make no distinction between any of Allah's Messengers (PBUT). The evidence on this is that Almighty Allah Says (What means): "The Apostle believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in God, His angels, His books, and His apostles. "We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His apostles." And they say: "We hear, and we obey: (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys." [Al-Baqarah/285]. 

Those who have insulted the Prophet (PBUH) didn`t know him that well. This is because they weren`t acquainted with his blessed Sirah (Biography), which calls for tolerance, fraternity, knowing each other and harmony. Allah Says (What means): "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)." [Al-Hujurat/13]. Had they reviewed his life and noble character, they would have realized that he is a good role model from all perspectives, and, thus would have respected this great Prophet (PBUH). How not! While Allah Said about him (What means): "And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character." [Al-Qalam/4]. 

The General Iftaa` Department confirms that the continuation of such insulting acts proves genuine intention to incite hatred and sedition in the whole world. Thus, violence, terrorism and insults should be abstained from and stood up against with determination since they only lead to intensifying hatred amongst nations. It is the duty of every Muslim to defend the Prophet (PBUH) through embracing his moral, which was the Quran, shedding light on his luminous image and fighting back suspicious matters directed against his life and figure.

Allah's Way [always] prevails, but most people do not know.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is my husband entitled to take my salary?

Your salary is yours, and you may give some of it to him as a kind of free-will contribution.

What is the ruling on wiping the head during ablution from behind a barrier like a headscarf (hijab)?

The obligation in ablution is to wipe some of the head; it is not a condition to wipe all of it. As for one who has a turban or headscarf on their head, it is permissible for them to wipe over it after wiping a part of their head in any place. This is easily done at the front of the head. This means the woman begins by wiping the front of her head from under the headscarf, then completes the wiping to the back of the head from over the headscarf. If the woman wipes over the headscarf on her head and the moisture reaches the scalp or some hair within the boundaries of the head, it suffices for wiping the head. And Allah the Almighty knows best.

Does the clipping of nails nullify ablution?

No, it does not, and it is preferable to wash the hands afterwards.

What is the ruling on a person in a state of major impurity (junub) or a menstruating woman (ha'id) reciting the Quran from memory?

It is not permissible for a menstruating woman, a postpartum woman, or a person in a state of major impurity to recite anything from the Quran, whether from memory, from the Quran, from a phone, or a computer. It is also not permissible for them to touch the Quran, based on what was reported from Ali bin Abi Talib that the Prophet (peace be upon him) was not prevented from anything regarding the Quran except major impurity (janabah). (Reported by al-Tirmidhi who said it is a hasan sahih hadith). Menstruation and postpartum bleeding are analogous to major impurity (janabah) as they are all major impurities (hadath akbar).
For those mentioned, it is permissible to mention Allah and supplicate even with verses from the Quran, provided they do not intend them as recitation of the Quran, but intend them as remembrance (dhikr) or supplication (du'a). And Allah the Almighty knows best.
