DA'EEF ḤADEETH

Prophet Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said: "The sleep of a fasting person is worship."

Grade of narration: WEAK (Sh. al-Albānī).

[ضعيف الجامع الصغير ٥٩٧٢]

On the authority of Abu hurayrah radiyallaahu anhu:

A man came to the prophet sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, and he said, oh messenger of Allaah I ate and drank in forgetfulness and I am fasting so he(the prophet) said,"Allaah has fed you and given you to drink"

It was authenticated by Al-albaani in sahih Abi daawud no: 2398....

Further explanation on the above hadeeth:

(Allaah has fed you and given you to drink)

The prophet sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam said; whoever breaks fasting (before its proper time) in the month of Ramadan forgetfully, there is no "qadoo'u" on him neither is there "kaffarah"...

Al-albaani declared its chain to be hasan in sahih ibn khuzaima no: 1990

oh our lord! we have heard a proclaimer calling towards faith, (saying ) "Believe in your lord" so we have accepted faith. Our lord! therefore forgive our sins, and wipe out our evil deeds and let us die among the righteous. Q3-193.

Reported by al-Bukhaari (813) and Muslim (1167) from Abu Sa‘eed al-Khudri who said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) observed i‘tikaaf during the first ten days of Ramadan, and we observed i‘tikaaf with him. Then Jibreel came to him and said: “What you are seeking is ahead of you.” So he observed i‘tikaaf during the middle ten days, and we observed i‘tikaaf with him. Then Jibreel came to him and said: “What you are seeking is ahead of you.” So the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) stood up and addressed us on the morning of the twentieth of Ramadan and said: “Whoever observed i‘tikaaf with the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), let him come back, for I was shown Laylat al-Qadr then I was caused to forget it. Verily it is in the last ten nights, on an odd-numbered night, and I saw myself prostrating in mud and water.” The roof of the mosque was made of palm leaves, and we had not seen anything in the sky, but then a cloud came and it rained, and the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) led us in prayer until I saw the traces of mud and water on the forehead of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and the tip of his nose, in fulfilment of his dream.

Bilal Philips Dear Brothers and Sisters, the month of Ramadan should not be a month of feasting but instead a month of fasting. Let us remember this while sitting for suhoor (the dawn meal) and at the time of iftaar (breaking the fast). Although it is important to take care of our health during these days of fasting, we must focus on the sublime principle of moderation, which Islam commands inside and outside of the fast. For, excesses of overeating, staying up all night in play, and over sleeping are contrary to the teachings of Islam.

ZAKAATUL-FITR (CHARITY AT END OF RAMADAAN)

Praise be to Allaah and blessings of Allaah be upon His Messenger and Chosen Prophet.

It should be understood that there is a difference between Zakaatul-fitr which is given at the end of Ramadaan and Zakaah on one’s wealth.

Zakaatul-fitr is obligatory for every Muslim to be paid on his own behalf and on behalf of those on whose maintenance he is obliged to spend, if he has wealth surplus to his and his dependents needs for the day and night of Eid: one saa‘.

It also has nothing to do with what a person owns of wealth, property or cars because he pays Zakaatul-fitr on his own behalf and on behalf of the people on whom he is obliged to spend.

Like I said earlier, Zakaatul-fitr is obligatory upon every Muslim who is self-supporting, if he has one saa’ or more than he needs of food for himself and his family on the day and night of Eid.

The basis for that is the report narrated from Ibn ‘Umar who said:

“The Messenger of Allaah enjoined Zakaatul-fitr, a saa’ of dates, or a saa’ of barley, upon all the Muslims, slave and free, male and female, young and old, and he commanded that it be paid before the people went out to pray.” Agreed upon; this version was narrated by Al-Bukhaari.

And Abu Sa’eed Al-Kubra narrated: “We used to pay Zakaatul-fitr when the Messenger of Allaah was alive, a saa’ of food or a saa’ of dates or a saa’ of barley or a saa’ of raisins or a saa’ of dried yoghurt.” Agreed upon.

It is acceptable to give a saa’ of the local staple food such as rice etc.

What is meant by a saa’ here is the saa’ of the Messenger of Allaah, which is four times the amount that may be held in the two hands of a man of average build.

If a person does not pay Zakaatul-fitr, he is sinning, and he has to make it up.

May Almighty Allaah accept our fasting as an act of worship.

<<Aboo Mardiy Ath-thaqoofiy>>

I have a question about zakatul fitr

I am not exactly sure how to word it but say a person who isn't obligated to pay zakatul fitr does so but the one who is obligated to pay still pays on the other persons behalf. What happens then? Whose zakah is likely to be accepted and whose payment is charity *especially considering that you cannot do/give reward of deeds to a person that is alive*

To all my brothers and sisters. Please make this holy month be a month not only to pray to request or pray because you will be rewarded from praying. But pray because this is the right thing to do and reflect on the small things that Allah has bestowed upon us. Big or small, there is no greater or less in Allah's blessings. All things must be thanked for. We do fasting to make us realize that we are nothing without Allah.

Ask a scholar

Just did.

Thanks.

Make this Ramadan different. For every ayat that you read in the Quran, stop for a moment and ponder over what Allah has to say, and act upon it. For example, when Allah’s Names and attributes are described, use those names to invoke Him and make dua.

Ramadan isn’t just for the pure ones, it’s for the broken ones, the ones who have found themselves so far from faith, the ones who have forgotten the beauty of Islam. It’s for everyone, to find themselves in this beautiful month, to let go of what’s keeping them from seeing the real beauty of this religion. And even if it’s only for 30 days, I pray that your soul is deeply touched by its beauty.

Al-Qadr(destiny)

Translation
in the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful.
1. Lo! we have revealed it (the Qur'an) on the night of destiny.
2. And what could made you know what it is, the night of destiny.
3. The night of destiny is better than a thousand months.
4. In it the angels and the spirit descend by their Lord's permission with all his decrees;
5. (That night is) peace, until the rise of dawn.

This surah describes the night of power. this is generally understood to refer to the night of the first revelation of the Quran. it is believed to be of the odd-numbered nights within the last ten days of Ramadan.

This night of destiny has great spiritual importance.it is a night of peace when the angels including spirit (understood to be jubril or divine inspiration) descend with Allah's permission to carry out his instructions.

The night is described as better than a thousand nights.
therefore every Muslim is advised to increase his act of worship(prayer, meditation, reading of the Quran) on those days and nights of Ramadan so that on the night of destiny, whenever it comes , he will have a multiple rewards.

may Allah make it easy for us.

....

2/3 of Ramadan have passed. I am sorry to say, some of us won't witness the last 10 days, because for some of us, we will return to our Lord.

Are you happy with the way you have spent the past 20 days? Are you happy with what you have put forth?

^^

Made me go but it's the truth.

Are we supposed to answer that question or is it for us to reflect?

Q: Is it better to give in charity in the last ten days of Ramadaan, or to spend the nights of those days in prayer and dhikr which is the only special thing about those nights?.

A:
Praise be to Allaah.
What was narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) concerning staying up at night during the last ten nights of Ramadaan is that those nights should be spent in prayer and dhikr.

Charity during Ramadaan is better than charity at other times, but we do not know of anything in the Sunnah to indicate that giving charity in the last ten days is better.

But the scholars stated that righteous deeds are better when done at times of virtue, and undoubtedly the last ten nights of Ramadaan are better than any other nights, because Laylat al-Qadr is among them, which is better than a thousand months.

Whatever the case, what is prescribed for the Muslim is to give a great deal of charity throughout Ramadaan. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was the most generous of people and he was at his most generous during Ramadaan. Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6; Muslim, 2308

And Allaah knows best.
