Q: In our residential area, people are accustomed to slaughtering an animal upon starting or finishing the construction of a house. Neighbors and relatives are invited on this occasion. What is Your Eminence's opinion about this practice? Is there any recommendable act to be performed before going to live in a new house? Benefit us may Allah reward you well!

(Part No. 2; Page No. 29)

Ans by Imam Ibn Baz (rahimahullaah):

This practice needs to be clarified.

If by slaughtering the animal the owners of the house seek to protect themselves from jinn or ensure that the house is safe to live in or any similar issue, this practice will be considered an act of Bid'ah (innovation in religion).

If the slaughter is offered for the sake of the jinn, then it will be considered an act of major Shirk (associating others with Allah in His Divinity or worship) as it involves offering an act of Ibadah (worship) to someone other than Allah.

However, if by doing this, one intends to show gratitude to Allah's Blessings for reaching the roof or completion of construction works there is nothing wrong with this and with inviting the relatives and neighbors. This is the custom of many people who offer thanks to Allah due to Him helping them construct a house of their own instead of renting a house to live in. There is nothing wrong in this.

If the intention behind this is to protect oneself from jinn or to fulfill any other non-Islamic purpose, then this practice is impermissible.

This practice will be valid only if the intention is to show gratitude to Allah for enabling one to construct a house of their own. This practice is similar to being hospitable to one's relatives and neighbors.This is also similar to holding a marriage banquet.

A similar practice is performed when people return from travel when animals are sacrificed and relatives are entertained. It was the Prophet's (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) regular practice that upon returning from a journey he would slaughter a camel and invite people to dine with him.

Omo Baba Jabata! You don change moniker again! But still your evil ways never change! Alhamdulillah, no be my reasoning i wrote up there. You and your Ustadh can call Imam Ibn Baz (rahimahullaah) a Mubtadhi. Na your ways!

What is Bid'a in the OP?

In the hadeeth of Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him) which says that when the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to Madeenah from a journey, he would slaughter a camel or a cow. Narrated by al-Bukhaari.

Have you started using spoon to eat or you still dey use hand eat rice & stew?

Why don't you bring forth your own evidence/view on the topic. The OP just quoted hadith. maybe you should say your understanding of that point so we can all be better guided. by the way .... enough of insults pls. there's no good in it.

Nairaland is full of low-lives. But you should understand that Seun is enjoying every bit of it(the house wins). On a serious note: religion can't be off - everyone is entitled to their own stupid opinions-and it's same on twitter & everywhere too. By the way you should've inbox Seun rather than interupt a beautiful thread.

thanks .

Nothing much... Just arrange some Alfas, let them come n recite Quran Kareem if not all, just some parts. If you have d power, cook 4 dem or snacks wit some cash! What more importantly is the "Intention" always for peace living in d new apartment.

Then u are good to go. Thank you

Salamu alaikum, sunnatically, if one built a new house, what are the things to do before moving inside?

That is how they tie their tenants..


evil landlords

Tawakkalna ala Allah

Tie their tenants as in ?

isram:
That is how they tie their tenants..


evil landlords

As in they wont progress, as in they will have bad lucks, as if u dont know

madridguy:

So killing a ram will give one ill luck?

isram:
As in they wont progress, as in they will have bad lucks, as if u dont know

In my own personal opinion, slaughtering of animal can't be classified as sin ''as long as the isn't buried or serve as sacrifice toward any gods'' it is for consumption purpose which would serve as a form of alms.

isram:
As in they wont progress, as in they will have bad lucks, as if u dont know

which progress? The same one that is making you rent house in the first instance. Alaye, you're born with badluck ni jor.

As-salaamu alaikum.. I think slaughtering of animals for moving into a new apartment is uncalled for. This is because it has no islamic basis from the time of the prophet and his companions. At least they also built their houses too. But we never saw any sound proof of them slaughtering animals to show as gratitude. The person doing this might have a clean and pure mind but we should be careful as all our deeds are not been judged according to our intentions alone. It should also follow the way of the prophet(SAW)..

However, I don't think there is anything wrong with it only if the animal was been slaughtered just to entertain whoever comes to greet the owner of the new house.. Wallahu a'lam
