Hadith Regarding taking consent of a Women before her marriage
Narrated Aisha:
I asked the Prophet, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Should the women be asked for their consent to their marriage?" He said, "Yes." I said, "A virgin, if asked, feels shy and keeps quiet." He said, "Her silence means her consent." [Sahih al-Bukhari 6946]
Hadith Regarding Prohibition to Cut off ties of Kinship
Abdur Rahman ibn Awf heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, said, 'I am the Merciful (ar-Rahman). I have created ties of kinship and derives a name for it from My Name. If anyone maintains ties of kinship, I maintain connection with him, and I shall cut off anyone who cuts them off.'" [Al-Adab-Al-Mufrad 53]
Hadith Regarding Repaying Debts Handsomely
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) owed a camel of a certain age to a man who came to demand it back. The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered his companions to give him. They looked for a camel of the same age but found nothing but a camel one year older. The Prophet (ﷺ) told them to give it to him. The man said, "You have paid me in full, and may Allah pay you in full." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The best amongst you is he who pays his debts in the most handsome manner." [Sahih al-Bukhari 2393]
Hadith Regarding Waiving Payments in case of a Blight
Jabir b. Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying:
If You sell fruits to your brother (and Jabir b. Ahduthh reported through another chain of narrators: If you were to sell fruits to your brother) and these is a stricken with Calamity, it is not permissible for you to get anything from him. Why do you get the wealth of your brother, without justification? [Sahih Muslim 1554a]
Hadith Regarding Virtues of Planting and Cultivating
Anas reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying Never does a Muslim plant trees or cultivate land and birds or a man or a beast eat out of them but that is a charity on his behalf. [Sahih Muslim 1553a]
Sahih Hadith Regarding Performing Ghusl on Friday
It was narrated from Aws bin Aws that
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever washes (Ghassala) and performs Ghusl, comes early to the Masjid and sits near the Imam, and does not engage in idle talk, he will have for every step he takes (the reward of) a year's worth of good deeds, fasting it and praying Qiyam during it." [Sunan An-Nasai 1381]
Sahih Hadith Regarding offering two Rakahs of Voluntary Prayer before the Maghrib Prayer
Narrated Anas b. Malik :
I offered two rak'ahs of prayer before the Maghrib prayer (i.e. obligatory) during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). I (narrator al-Mukhtar b. Fulful) asked Anas: Did the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) se you ? He replied: Yes, but he neither commanded us nor forbade us (to do so). [Sunan Abu Dawood 1282]
Sahih Hadith Regarding Performing Dry Ablution(tayammum) in absence of water
It was narrated from 'Ammar bin Yasir that:
When they did dry ablution with the Messenger of Allah, he commanded the Muslims to strike the dust with the palms of their hands, and they did not pick up any dust. Then they wiped their faces once, then they struck the dust with their palms once again and wiped their hands. [Sunan Ibn e Majah 571]
Hadith Regarding Prostration during recitation of the Quran
Narrated Abdullah bin Masud:
The Prophet (ﷺ) recited Suratan-Najm at Mecca and prostrated while reciting it and those who were with him did the same except an old man who took a handful of small stones or earth and lifted it to his forehead and said, "This is sufficient for me." Later on, I saw him killed as a non-believer. [Sahih al-Bukhari 1067]
Hadith Regarding Method to Perform Wudu(Ablution)
Humran, the freed slave of 'Uthman, said:
Uthman bin Affan called for ablution water and this is how he performed the ablution. He washed his hands thrice. He then rinsed his mouth and cleaned his nose with water (three times). He then washed his face three times, then washed his right arm up to the elbow three times, then washed his left arm like that, then wiped his head; then washed his right foot up to the ankle three times, then washed his left foot like that, and then said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) perform ablution like this ablution of mine. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: He who performs ablution like this ablution of mine and then stood up (for prayer) and offered two rak'ahs of prayer without allowing his thoughts to be distracted, all his previous sins are expiated. Ibn Shihab said: Our scholars remarked: This is the most complete of the ablutions performed for prayer. [Sahih Muslim 226a]
Talks between Iran and USA
According to many credible media outlets the next round of talks between Iran and the USA is set to take place in Islamabad next week. I wrote this article couple of days ago so it might not be updated according to the current situation but as of now the situation is quite tense and confusing. Although both sides clam that a deal is just about to be reached but there are many things that have to be decided before a deal is finalized. This includes the Strait of Hormuz and Iran's nuclear programme. The proposals made by America to Iran are quite unrealistic. It just shows that America wants to achieve its objectives in talks which it failed to achieve during the war. Several credible media sources have reported that earlier this morning America stuck an Iranian trading ship that was returning to Iran from China. Iran has vowed strong retaliation in response to this aggression. This is just America's blackmailing tactics to pressure Iran to bow down infront of America and Israel's unjust demands. As of now Iran has not announced to send its delegation to Islamabad for talks.
When analyzing the current situation there are many things which we can not ignore. I will try to analyze these things one by one. The first thing is the Israel's violations of the ceasefire in Lebanon. So far Israel has murdered over a thousand innocent civilians in Lebanon in guise of targeting Hezbollah. Israel has the habit of targeting civilian infrastructure if it can not win militarily. This is what is happening in Lebanon as well where Israel has failed to defeat Hezbollah so now it is targeting civilian infrastructure in Lebanon. The second thing is the control of the Strait of Hormuz. It has not been decided yet that who will control this strait. At the moment Iran has closed the strait once again. Before this just after the ceasefire the USA also imposed an embargo on Iranian ports. This situation is very tense. The third thing is the Zionist and the Israeli lobby in the USA which is constantly pressuring America to invade Iran. Iran is a constant existential threat to Israel so will the Israeli lobby allow Iran to come out victorious after this conflict? The fourth thing is Iran's nuclear programme. As I said Iran is an existential threat to Israel but along with this Iran also has a lot of differences with some of the gulf states so will they allow Iran to have nuclear weapons? The fifth thing is America's negotiating team which in my opinion is incapable of reaching any deal with Iran which has a lot to do with the unrealistic demands of the USA and the incompetence of their negotiating team. The sixth thing is America increasing its military presence in the region which could possibly mean that the US can think of invading or attacking Iran again. These are some of the major issues which need to be addressed before a deal is finalized between the two sides. I am not saying that this war shouldn't stop. I pray to Allah that this war stops but the situation at the moment is quite confusing. Let's pray to Allah that everything goes in favor of the Ummah and in favor of Iran. With regards to Iran's nuclear program I have stated in my previous articles as well and I will say it again that it is necessary for Iran to have nuclear weapons. It will keep the balance of power between Iran and Israel. Iran for years has positioned itself as a major threat to Israel and American interests in the region so if it really wants to be a major threat to Israel and America it must must have Nuclear weapons. Allah says in the quran;
Prepare against them what you ˹believers˺ can of ˹military˺ power and cavalry to deter Allah’s enemies and your enemies as well as other enemies unknown to you but known to Allah. Whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be paid to you in full and you will not be wronged. [Surah Anfal Verse no.60]
Indeed America and Israel are enemies of Islam and enemies of Iran and to counter them Iran must have nuclear weapons. Even if deal is finalized between America and Iran there is no guarantee that the America or Israel will not violate it because they have done so in the past.
Now I would talk a little bit about Pakistan. Pakistan has played a very positive role during this conflict between Iran, Israel and America. First round of talks between Iran and America took place in Islamabad and the second round of talks are about to take place next week in Islamabad. This is a role which Pakistan should play as it is the only Muslim country with nuclear weapons. According to a deal that was signed between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia Pakistan has also stationed its air force in Saudi Arabia to protect them against false flag Israeli attacks and unjust Iranian attacks in case the war starts again. I would here like to clarify that by unjust attacks I mean Iran targeting civilian infrastructure of the gulf states. In my opinion Iran should only target American military bases and their Economic interests in the gulf states. Iran shouldn't target the civilian infrastructure of gulf states even if it is in response to Israel and America targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran. The reason why I am against this is because not everyone living in the Gulf would be Anti Iran or support Israel, America and the puppet regimes in the gulf against Iran. Instead Iran should target civilian infrastructure in Israel that would be a legitimate target. I also discussed this point extensively in my previous article. Anyhow getting back to the the topic I also mentioned false flag Israeli attacks in the gulf countries which is true because there have been multiple credible reports of Israel conducting multiple false flag operations in the gulf state to blame it on Iran. However I would like to ask the Pakistani leadership a question that just like how you signed a defence agreement with Saudi Arabia and sent troops to defend Saudi Arabia why didn't you sign a deal with Palestine and send your troops to help your Palestinian brothers when they were crying for help? Are the Palestinians not your Muslim brothers or Is it because Saudi Arabia is rich and Palestinians are poor? Unfortunately Pakistani government not only was part of Trump's board of peace but they also nominated him for noble peace prize. Similarly rest of the Muslim were also either completely silent or just issuing empty statements which are useless. For example Türkiye didn't do anything militarily to help Hamas. They also continued to trade with Israel even after the genocide in Gaza. Another thing which we can not ignore is that most of the oil of Israel comes from Azerbaijan through the pipe lines that pass through Türkiye. Similarly Iran also entered the fight directly against Israel when it was attacked by Israel last year. Before this they didn't attack Israel with the same amount of passion with which they are attacking Israel and America now. Furthermore most of the fight against Israel was being carried out by Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis while Iran did support them but only limitedly. What I am trying to say is that Iran could have attached Israel and America in the same way on 7th of October, 2023. If this would have happened then probably Israeli occupation of Palestine and the American hegemony in the region could have ended or at least could have been weakend significantly. The Ummah must remember the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad SAW in which he says that the entire Ummah is like a body if one part of body is in pain then the entire body suffers from that pain. This means that if Palestinians, Kashmiris, Uyghurs, Sudanese etc are threatned or oppressed then the entire Ummah is being threatned and oppressed so the entire Ummah must retaliate against those who are threatening our brothers. According to an other Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW the sanctity of a Muslim is greater than the sanctity of the Holy Kaaba so I call upon Pakistan, Iran, Türkiye and the entire Ummah to send their armies to Palestine to help our Palestinian brothers in their fight against Israel. I mentioned Iran, Türkiye and Pakistan here because they have the most powerful armies in the entire Muslim Ummah. Here I would like to quote a verse from the Holy Quran in which Allah says;
And what is it with you? You do not fight in the cause of Allah and for oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, “Our Lord! Deliver us from this land of oppressors! Appoint for us a saviour; appoint for us a helper—all by Your grace.” [Surah An-Nisa Verse no.75]
In my opinion regardless of the outcome of the talks between Iran and America the situation of the Ummah is bad. Many suggest that after Iran Israel's next target could be Türkiye. For the couple of months many Israeli politicians have stated that Türkiye is going to be the 'next Iran'.I pray for the victory of our Turkish brothers over the enemies of Islam if they are attacked. The reality is that the Ummah did not respond to the cries of their Muslim brothers and sisters in Palestine which has given Israel the confidence to attack and threat other Muslim countries as well. At the moment Israel is already invading Lebanon and it is also annexing parts of Syria. It has already attacked Iran twice and is now threatening Türkiye. We as an ummah can not allow this to happen. We must put our differences aside and must work together so that we can victorious over the enemies of Islam. Many Israeli politicians are saying that their new target will be the 'Sunni axis'of resistance which according to them is being led by Türkiye. At the moment they are already fighting the Shia axis of resistance which is led by Iran. This proves that Israel doesn't care you are a Shia or a Sunni they regard you as a Muslim and will target you regardless of your sect. If the enemies of the Ummah regard you as Muslim then why are you dividing yourselves into different sects and ethnicities. Allah says in the Quran;
And hold firmly together to the rope of Allah and do not be divided. Remember Allah’s favour upon you when you were enemies, then He united your hearts, so you—by His grace—became brothers. And you were at the brink of a fiery pit and He saved you from it. This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you, so that you may be ˹rightly˺ guided. [Surah Al-Imran Verse no.103]
The first part of this verse very clearly mentions to hold firmly to the rope of Allah. According to some scholars this rope means the book of Allah which is the Quran. Allah has ordered Muslims in the Quran to not be divided, establish justice on Earth and also to help those who are oppressed. Muslims have also been ordered in the Quran to fight those who are transgressors and those who oppress others. What I am trying to say is that Muslims should be united under the banner of Islam and must act according to the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. This is the only way you can challenge your enemies and the enemies of Allah. In this regard I think Muslims must form a joint body like NATO or the European Union comprising of all Muslim countries of all sects and ethnicities. This union must act according to the Quran and the Sunnah only and must establish justice. It should work to help those who are being oppressed which includes Muslims and Non Muslims both. This union must work to fight and eradicate injustice and inequality around the world. This is what Allah has ordered Muslims in the Quran.
O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Iran, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.
