busar: grin grin grin brothers still doing what they know how to do best. Shaving of beards makru? Do you havae any evidence for that? The Prophet is the best example for the believers. And i don't think there's any companion that don't keep the beards.
YES.
check AL HALAL WAL HARAM FIL ISLAM-the lawful and the Prohibited by Dr Al-Qaradawi pgs 94-96

"...there are three opinions with regard to the shaving of the beard: one,that is haram, which is the opinion of Ibn Taymiyyah and others;two,that it is makruh,the opinion of Ayyad as mentioned in Al-Fatah al-Bari but no one else; and three,that it is permitted, which is the opinion of some scholars."

He further said the second opinion is nearer to the truth and more moderate.Growing the beard is commendable not compulsory,and shaving it would be classified as makruh rather than haram.That none of the sahabas was known to have shaved his beard....

Assalamu alaikum w.w

Actually I studied more on Hijab that the other two(beard/trouser) issues. Some wll wonder y?

Ignoring the hijab can lead to more evil here on earth and lead to deviation from Allah's rahama here-after i.e through ZINA and it's associate.Some scholars asserts that zina is the second greatest sin after shirk.

Regarding the beard it is a sunnah.In a hadith d Prophet p.b.u.h said "Be different from the polytheists(mushrikeen): let the beard grow and trim the mustache"...Reported by Bukhari on the authority of Ibn Umar may Allah be pleased with them. Some scholars said shaving the beard is 'makruh'

PLs a sister or a brother shld write mo on:

1.Shaving the Beard

2.Trousers + questiones Abubakar asked the Prophet p.b.u.h about dragging izar as they called it in arabic.

****HIJAB

It is a commandment from Allah s.w.t to the believng women check Q33:33, Q33:59, Q17:32 and Q24:31.

In Q17:32 Allah s.w.t says "...do not come near ZINA,it is indeed an abormination and an evil way.."

Not dressing according to Islamic Law can lead to zina due to high electrodynamic forces of attraction btw the unlike charges....

More are coming on Hijab

Sissie: Salam, I will answer your questions with questions

1. Why do many graduate men don't keep the beards, or wear trouser that longer than the ankle?

wsalam.9ja 4mula of answering questions b d@.

Does keeping beards/wearing trouser longer than the ankle fall in the same category with 'hijab'?

2.most men don't want to marry divorces or widows that have been married previously for like 2, 3 times as a first wife?

For me,I can marry any women(previously married or not) so far she has the qualities I need and she's not prohibited for me to marry Islamically.


3.you prefer women that haven't been previously married. And why do most do men in polygamy do injustice,and how many men can comfortable take care of more than one?
Ofcourse,I prefer haven't marry previously.For those doing injustice the shall account for it.In Q4:3 Allah s.w.t says..."...marry women of your choice,two,three or four,If can not deal justly with them marry one or what your right hand possess..." rough trans.

There are many that can comfortably take care of four wives IF they have the means.

I love you for the sake of Allah.
It's alright.
In Q49:10 Allah s.w.t says Innal muminuuna ikhawatun fa'aslihu baina akwaikum wattaqullaha la'allakum tur'hamuun.

Verily,belivers are brothers to one another,settle any dispute amicably,fear Allah so that He may bless you. ..rough trans.

In another verse He says Wal muminuuna wal muminaati ba'aduhum awli'u ba'ad, ya'muruuna bil ma'aruufi wan yan hauna anil munkari. . .

Believing men and women are lovers of one another,they command one another to do good and shun evil. . .rough trans.

Sissie: I don't understand the argument.

One translation is

Desiring chastity not lust.

Another one is

Desiring chastity not unlawful sexual intercourse

So what's the argument?
Jazakillahu khair.

Allah s.w.t is telling us the reason why men should seek for women in marriage is to SEEK THEM IN ORDER TO DESIRE CHASTITY,NOT COMMIT ILLEGAL SEX.


Tbaba's translation is

muhseenina ghayra musafiheena

bringing them into your fort not to satisty your lust.

According to his translation we are cautioned not to marry because of lust. Which I argue is not the meaning of 'muhsineena ghayra musafiheena'.That he shld pls translate /comment on the whole verse for us.

He is now saying I should download an arabic dictionary and stop wasting his time.

Translating a verse from an arabic dictionary via each word CANNOT give us the exact meaning of the verse.

Can someone just start doing tafsir because he is a holder of Phd in arabic?

The companions were arabs but the Prophet p.b.u.h had to interpret the meaning of the whole Qur'anic verses to them.

Qhan: Sallam Alykum Bro n Sis.

Am a regular user of NL, and also a regular guest of the Islam for Muslims forum. I have only summoned courage to post this, the reason for a New User Account.

I need opinions on How Best to approach a Muslimah for a serious relationship (With the intention of Marriage in the Next few months, say 12mnths on the high side ) under the following circumstances:

1. Not familiar with any Muslimah or have any in mind
2. A very shy and Timid person when it comes to female matters
3. Just one history of friendship with a Muslimah with hope of marriage, but hope dashed cos of Genotype issue
4. Most Muslimah are always hostile to men they tag as Strangers (and some could even insult or embarrass )


Also is it polite to Post relationship request on Forums or Groups on Facebook?
You must have some qualities of a Sister u'll like to marry.If you see any with some of the qualities u can approach her through your family;Sisters,Aunty,Mummy etc since you are shy.

The Prophet p.b.u.h encouraged us to marry a lady for her
1.Piety 2.Beauty 3.Family Status (lineage) 4.Wealth

^Pls visit this

Sissie: If a man can provide for a woman and decides to marry with the main reason of satisfying his urges legally their is nothing wrong in that as far as he knows and does his duties to her.

However a man can't just decide to get married to satisfy his urge when he can't support a wife, in this situation he should fast to control his urges.
You are very right sis.

The argument here is about the verse Q4:24.
IslamRe: Muslim Singles, Let Us Have A Talk by Esji80(m): 8:27am On Oct 19, 2013
tbaba1234: ^ Wa iyyakum,

Nothing i have said goes against the understanding of the Sahaba. Please provide the evidence that states otherwise. Get married as soon as you can provide support and protection to a home not because of your urges or desires.

A person should get married as soon as he can support a home. If you can't, then fast to help with whatever urges you have. That is the advice from the messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).

0 young men, those among you who can support a wife should marry, for it restrains eyes from casting (evil glances). and preserves one from immorality; but those who cannot should devote themselves to fasting for it is a means of controlling intimate desire. Muslim :: Book 8 : Hadith 3231

Help yourself to any classical arabic dictionary. Remember that is the language of the Quran. Lane's lexicon is available online.

I have a video reference that i can't upload here (too big).
Despite the fact that arabic is the language of the Qur'an, we can't get the exact meaning of every verse using dictionary.

Take for instance the word 'khair' appears in many verses in the Qur'an meaning different things.Which include; 1.money 2.force 3.good deeds 4.ganimah(wealth gotten after a war) etc.

So reading the meaning of each word from the dictionary CANNOT give you the meaning of every verse neither knowing the meaning of the whole arabic vocabs can.
But the interpretation of the Prophet p.b.u.h,his companions and the pious predecessors.

Pls can u give us the whole commentary of the verses Q4:24-25? Even if it is a link that gives the same transalation/interpretation of 'muhsineena gayrah musafiheena' as u give here.

I agree with you regarding having means or supporting a wife.

But I've searched many commentaries/translations online and offline,so far i've not come across any that gives the verse that meaning.
IslamRe: Muslim Singles, Let Us Have A Talk by Esji80(m): 12:36am On Oct 19, 2013
tbaba1234: What is there to interpret? It is clear.

A person can have the means to support a woman but refuse to get married. Living a chaste life is certainly one of the purposes of marriage but you can not separate the hadiths. They have to be understood together.

Besides Allah makes it clear in the Quran:

....muhsineena ghayra musafiheena ...

Muhsineena-

Root: To be guarded, be inaccessible, be strongly fortified, be preserved, be protected--

This is how Allah describes a man getting married.

ghayra- not

root - except, without, etc....

Musafiheena-

Musafi is a player... One who just wants to get his lust out.

Allah says be the one who brings women into security and protection not the one who just wants to get his lust out.
Jazakallahu khair.

You know we can only translate Qur'anic verses based on the interpretations or explanations given by the Prophet p.b.u.h or the sahabas r.a.a.

The companions r.a.a were arabs and the Qur'an is in arabic but the Prophet p.b.u.h had to interprete their meanings to them.

Pls can you give me any reference where they translated/commented on the verse the way your present it here?

IslamRe: Muslim Singles, Let Us Have A Talk by Esji80(m): 11:42pm On Oct 18, 2013
^Pls help me interpret these:

The Prophet p.b.u.h said "there are three who have a right to the help of Allah:

1.the one who marries out of the desire to live a chaste life

2.the slave whose master has agreed to his buying his freedom when he wishes to pay the sum

3.the one who fights in the cause of Allah"

Reported by Ahmad,Al-Nisai,Tirmidhi,Ibn Majah and al-Hakim.
IslamRe: Muslim Singles, Let Us Have A Talk by Esji80(m): 11:24pm On Oct 18, 2013
This is what Allah s.w.t says in Q4:24:

And [also prohibited to you are all]married women except those your right hands possess. [This is] the
decree of Allah upon you. And lawful to you are [all others] beyond these,[provided] that you seek them [in marriage] with [gifts from] your property,DESIRING CHASTITY,NOT UNLAWFUL SEXUAL INTERCOURSE(Muhsineena gahra musafihina). So for
whatever you enjoy [of marriage]
from them, give them their due
compensation as an obligation. And there is no blame upon you for what you mutually agree to beyond the obligation. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.

Pls re-visit the translation/commentary of the verse.

I agree with that you must be able to support a wife before you can talk of getting married.As you qouted above the Prophet p.b.u.h said those that can 'support a wife' or those that have the 'means of getting married' shld marry.

Sissie: Theirs no right and wrong, you don't go saying someone father is wrong, because you share a different perspective. it's not like he's delaying for no reason, a man who don't have means to get married also delays gettings married. There's a reason.

I don't know what your going on about with the 3rd party thing. I said in my own house, my own dad no 3rd party that will change his mind, so if professors like let them suggest more than 3 methods.

maclatunji: To be honest, I think he makes sense. Sex is important but it is not food or water, you won't die if you wait a few years jor.
hmmn die of sex hunger...LOls

But nobody knows when he/she will die.

Lan yu ahirallahu nafsan idhaa ja'a ajaluha,wallahu khabirun bima ta'amaluun.

Allah will not delay a soul even for a second when it's time to leave this world is due.He is all aware of all you do.

Those that are married will have ranks even in the here-after.

The Prophet p.b.u.h called it(marriage) 'half of the deen'.That "if your married you've completed halve of your deen strive to complete the other halve"

@ Sissie,I believe there must be some people your dad listens to.If thre exist such people, they can serve as the third party.

The way the muslims are treated in Nigeria is really unconstitutional.We have freedom of religion,movement etc.

Some people will plan an evil, later on shout 'Allahu akbar' they will say these are 'Muslims-Terrorists'-no investigation.

Whatever wrong muslim did,it's normally attributed to Islam in general.Instead of him/her to be brought to book.

Who is to be blamed for all these?

Regarding your case(Marriage/Schooling),I"ve said all that I can say.I don't want to repeat my previous posts.But it seems you want the suggestions or opinions of sisters not brothers.

deols: So if a Father sees something that could be detrimental to his daughter, does that not fall under the 'character' part.

There is a reason he is the father and he will answer for it if he gives his daughter to the wrong person.

Like I said the brother needs to prove himself good enough for his daughter, if not, the father is very right.
Do u thnk any gud father wl agree to gv his daughter to anybody d@ has no sound 'character'?

Frm wat bro olawale wrote,d lady's dad has agreed to marry his daughter after ha studies to d brother-wc means he s satisfied wt d brother's 'character'

Was FIRST CLASS degree mentioned anywhere in Islamic law as a pre-requisite for marriage in Islam?
D@ means no first class no marriage . . .
