The Prophetic Migration... A Journey of Building a Firmly Established State

 

All praise is to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Master Muhammad, his family, companions, and followers.

In these blessed days, we breathe in the fragrance of that sacred journey overflowing with messages and lessons—the anniversary of the Prophetic Hijrah.

The noble Hijrah was the journey of building a strong state with its institutions: its mosque, its army, and its economy. A state strong in the firm faith of its people—a state that would protect the religion and safeguard its citizens who defend their faith, identity, land, honor, and resources.

This beginning, this strength, and this divine empowerment explain to us the secret behind that enmity—the reason why the disbelievers of Mecca shifted from merely persecuting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his noble companions to conspiring to kill him once they learned of his intention to migrate and establish a state.

A strong state with a firm identity that defends its faith, people, and resources has always—and will always—infuriate our enemies across time and place. That is why their tactics shifted from oppression, economic warfare, and propaganda to outright intent to kill.

They conspired to assassinate the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as stated in the following verse (What means): "And [remember, O Prophet] when the disbelievers plotted against you to detain, kill, or expel you. They planned, but Allah also planned. And Allah is the best of planners." [Al-Anfal/30].

The use of the word "plotted" indicates that the disbelievers persist in their schemes and hostility. Their plotting against this religion continues—against our sacred symbols, against our major causes and beliefs, and against this Ummah, its principles, and its identity. We see it today: militarily, as we witness in the oppression of our people in Palestine; intellectually, in the waves of atheism, skepticism toward the sources of Islamic rulings, and attacks on the Qur’an, Sunna, and scholars; and morally, in the campaigns promoting deviance in relationships, opposing Islamic rulings. All of this is part of their plotting. Yet the verse reminds us that the schemes of Allah’s enemies hold no weight or value.

Today, as Allah Has Blessed us with this sacred land and the blessings of security and faith, it is our duty to safeguard these favors. We must understand that preserving them is a defeat for our enemies. We must recognize that the Qur’an, Sunna, and divine rulings are the guarantees of our nation’s strength and unity. May Allah protect Jordan and perpetuate its honor under the blessed Hashemite banner, led by His Majesty King Abdullah II Ibn Al-Hussein.

We ask Allah The Almighty to grant us victory and to firmly establish the religion He has chosen for us. Indeed, He is The Guardian of that and The All-Powerful over it. And all praise is to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is washing the private part after urinating (Istinjaa`) a condition, and is it done with water and soap, or with water only?

Istinjaa` is obligatory for removing impurity, and it can be done with toilet paper, or a stone, or water. It is preferable to do Istinjaa` first with paper, or stone, or the like, then to wash the private part with water until making sure that the impurity has been removed. Using soap is not a condition, but there is no harm in doing so provided that it is washed off with water. It is also permissible to use either water, or paper if impurity is removed by any.

A pregnant woman has iron deficiency. When she showers, she becomes very tired and feels cold. What is the ruling on tayammum in this situation?

All praise is due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our master, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
One should not resort to tayammum (dry ablution) as a substitute for the obligatory ghusl (ritual bathing) so long as it remains possible to use water — for example, by heating the water, warming the place where the bathing takes place, or taking other similar precautions. However, if such measures prove ineffective, or are simply not possible to carry out, and performing ghusl [with cold water] would result in severe harm, then tayammum becomes permissible in that case, due to genuine inability to use water on account of the harm that would result, as described in the question. That said, she must make up (qaḍā') the prayers she performed using this tayammum.
It is stated in Bushrā al-Karīm: "One should not perform tayammum on account of cold unless warming the limbs fails to remove the aforementioned harm, and no means are available to heat the water — such as a vessel, firewood, or fire — and one fears [that using cold water would result in] any of the harms mentioned earlier in the discussion on illness: danger to life, loss of function in a limb, the onset or worsening of an illness, delayed recovery, or the [visible bodily] blemish mentioned in that discussion on illness. In such a case, tayammum becomes permissible due to the harm involved, but the prayer must still be made up afterward (qaḍā'). If, however, warming the body proves effective, or the means to heat the water are available, or none of the aforementioned harms are feared — then tayammum is not permissible, even if using the water causes some degree of discomfort or pain, since mere discomfort alone does not permit resorting to tayammum." And Allah, the Exalted, knows best.

Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to recite the Quran from the computer without actually touching the Quran?

It is not permissible for a woman in her menstrual period, or in postpartum to recite the Quran, even by heart, or without actually touching the Quran itself. Recitation itself is what is prohibited on her regardless of how it is done. However, it is permissible for her to surf through the Quran by her eyes, or to recall it in her head without uttering the words. There is no harm for her to look at the Quranic verses on the computer without touching it, or to utter the words as this is called looking not reciting or reading.

What is recommended for a Muslim to say on Laylat al-Qadr?

On Laylat al-Qadr, it is recommended for a Muslim to recite the supplication (du‘a) that the Prophet ﷺ taught Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her):
"O Allah, You are Most Forgiving, and You love forgiveness, so forgive me." [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi]
