Question: Does the wax that exits the ear nullify the wudhu?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name ofย Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

Thank you for your above question, with reference to your particular case, wax that exits from the ear nullifies the wudhu if it is due to pain. If not due to pain then wudhu is not broken. Wax in itself is not regarded as an impurity unless it is mixed with blood which will then break the wudhu regardless.[1]

With reference to your particular case, it is not a Sunnah to raise the finger when reciting the shahdatain upon completing wudhu. The ahadith mention about looking up towards the sky when reading but do not mention raising the fingers.[1]

Dying the Hair black to please the Husband

30th April 2018

 

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ 

Question: Is it permissible for a wife to dye her white hair to black to please her husband?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

With reference to your query, although the Hanafi scholars have differed on this matter, some permit it whilst many disapproved of it due to the generality of the Hadฤซth, the preferred view is that it should be avoided.[1] The Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said to Abลซ Quhafa radhiyallahu anhu whose hair and beard had turned white โ€œchange this with another colour but avoid black.โ€[2] This Hadฤซth clearly forbids black dye. She can, however, dye her hair using other colours such as brown etc for adornment but must refrain from black.

However, some have regarded it as disliked but not Haram for a woman dying the hair to please her husband. Shaykh Mufti Taqi Usmani Sahib (May Allah preserve him) mentions as follows;

โ€œThe preferred judgement in this regard is that if it is applied for adornment purpose where a woman applies it to please her husband or the husband applies it to please his wife then this is not considered Haram, but rather Makrooh-e-Tanzeehi (discouraged and best to refrain from). As for the Hadeeth but abstain from black the explanation of this ruling would be that if it (black hair-dye) is applied to deceive others then this ruling (of prohibition) becomes bounded. If it is for adornment purpose for each otherโ€™s spouse then this ruling is preferred (discouraged) and to abstain from it is better otherwise if someone (in the case of adornment for oneโ€™s spouse) applies it then it will not be considered Haram.โ€[3]

It is, therefore, best to avoid but should the wife do it anyway then it will be considered as disliked the most but not Haram.

Answer:ย 

Thank you for your query. The masah of the nape is reported from the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam which the classical scholars have accepted. The most correct view is that it is mustahab (desirable) to do so.[1]

Ghusl with Lipstick

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ 

Question:

If a woman does not remove her lipstick for a Fardh Ghusl, will the ghusl be valid?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

Thank you for your above question, with reference to your particular case if a woman does not remove her lipstick, her ghusl will not be completed, as water has to reach all body parts for ghusl to be completed. Lipstick is impermeable and forms a thick layer over the lips which does not allow water to reach the lips, therefore the lips will remain unwashed hence ghusl not done.[1]

Wudhu with Nail Polish

30th April 2018

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ 

Question: Is the wudhu complete without removing the nail polish?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

It is obligatory during wudhu for water to reach the surface of the skin and nail. Anything that creates a barrier between the water and the skin renders the wudhu as incomplete. Nail polishes generally form a coating on the nail, by which water cannot reach the surface of the nail, therefore it must be removed before making wudhu.[1]

A Woman Travelling more than 48 Miles without a Mahram

30th April 2018

 

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ 

 Question: Can women travel more than 48 miles without a Mahram?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

Generally, women are not allowed to travel more than 48 miles unless accompanied by a mahram.[1] Below that is permissible. The Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, โ€œIt is not permissible for a woman who believes is Allฤh and the final day to travel for more the three days without the presence of a mahram.โ€ [2]

The reason for this ruling is to safeguard the womanโ€™s welfare. This injunction ensures that she is secured and protected from any potential harm. Furthermore, a woman may require support during a journey, for instance, heavy luggage, the direction of root and so forth. Her mahram or her husband is the most ideal person to give her support when she requires it. The Islamic ruling on this matter is embedded with great wisdom and strives to protect the welfare of the women.

Hair Dye containing Alcohol

28th April 2018

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ 

Question: If a hair dye contains alcohol product is it permissible to use?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

Thank you for your above question, regarding your particular case, hair dye containing alcohol extracted from grapes and dates is not permissible to use due to its impurity but if extracted from than grapes and dates such as wheat, figs, petrol, chemicals and so on then it is permissible as they are not considered impure according to Imฤm Abu Hanifah rahimahullah and Imฤm Abลซ Yusuf rahimahullah.

Just to note that Imฤm Abลซ Hanifah rahimahullah and Imฤm Abลซ Yusuf rahimahullah viewed that alcohol extracted from other than grapes and dates are pure and permissible to drink to an extent when one is not intoxicated nor to drink for recreational purposes. Imฤm Muhammad rahimahullah, however, views all types of alcohol impermissible and impure to use or drink whether small or large quantity due to the narration that all intoxicating substances are prohibited.[1] This is the same view of the other madhabs as well.

In this day and age, due to public predicament, the view of Imฤm Abลซ Hanifah rahimahullah and Imฤm Abลซ Yusuf rahimahullah has been adopted in the case of food additives as well as non-consumable products so to avert difficulty. However, in the case of orally drinking alcohol of all types of beverages, the fatwa is on Imฤm Muhammadโ€™s rahimahullah view of prohibition due to widespread fitna.

Fasting and Worshiping on the 27th of Rajab

Question: What is the ruling on fasting on the 27th Rajab? Many people have attached a lot of virtues to this particular date and hence worship and fast on this date exclusively. Kindly elaborate on this matter whether 27th Rajab holds any significance or not and should we treat this night as a night to worship?

Answer

Fasting during the four sacred months; Dhul-Qaโ€™dah, Dhul-Hijjah, Muharram and Rajab has been encouraged due to their sacredness but other than that, no specific reward has been attached to fasting or worshipping exclusively on the 27th Rajab. Those narrations that apparently suggest worshipping or fasting on this specific date are all extremely weak. As for fasting during the four sacred months without specification of any date, it is reported that the Messenger of Allฤh sallallahu alayhi wasallam on one occasion advised one of his Companion radhiyallahu anhu to fast during the sacred months saying, โ€œFast (some days the) the sacred months and leave (some days of the sacred month), fast (some days the) the sacred months and leave (some days of the sacred month), fast (some days the) the sacred months and leave (some days of the sacred month). The narrator states that he joined three fingers and then released them.โ€ [1] What the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam meant was fast for three days with a break of three days in between. In this way, one ends up fasting half of the month in each of the four sacred months.[2] This Hadฤซth also includes fasting three days of Rajab followed by three days of break in between. Here the Prophetโ€™s sallallahu alayhi wasallam purpose was to encourage his followers to reap the fruits of these four sacred months as a whole so according to the Hadฤซth, each day of the month of Rajab holds equal value.

The most common narrations presented in justifying worshipping and fasting on the 27th Rajab are as follows,

  1. Sayyidunฤ Salmฤn Fฤrsi radhiyallahu anhu narrates that the Messenger of Allฤh sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, โ€œThere is a particular day and night in Rajab that whosoever fasts during the day and stands (in worship) during the night then it is as if he fasts and worships for a hundred years and that is the last three nights (27th) of Rajab and it was this time when Allฤh sent (granted Prophethood) to Muhammad.โ€[3]

According to Ibn Hajar al-Asqalฤni rahimahullah this Hadฤซth is Munkar (rejected) due to a narrator in the chain, Hayyฤj Ibn Bustฤm (the father of Khalid) who according to Yahyฤ Ibn Maโ€™een rahimahullah (a great Hadฤซth master) is considered weak and unreliable. He is also reported of narrating many Munkar narrations which scholars have rejected.[4]

  1. In another lengthy report from Sayyidunฤ Anas radhiyallahu anhu from Allฤhโ€™s Messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam that whoever performs twelve rakโ€™ats on this night (27th) and thereafter does Tasbeeh, Tahmeed, Tahleel, Takbeer and Istighfฤr and sends Durood upon the Prophet a hundred times each, supplicates and fasts during the day then all his Du’ฤs will be accepted as long as he does not pray for sin.[5]

Imฤm Ghazฤli rahimahullah also quotes this narration in his Ihyฤ Ulumdeen. Allฤmah Zayn al-Irฤqi rahimahullah in the footnote of Ihya has classed two narrators in this chain, Muhammad ibn Fadl and Abฤn as extremely weak and unreliable, rendering such report as Munkar.[6] What is noteworthy is that after quoting both narrations, Imฤm Bayhaqi rahimahullah himself classes both of them extremely weak and unreliable.

  1. Sayyidunฤ Abลซ Hurairah radhiyallahu anhu relates that Allฤhโ€™s Messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, โ€œWhosoever fasts on the 27th Rajab then Allฤh will record him fasting for sixty monthsโ€.[7]

In itโ€™s chain of transmission is Shahr in Hawshab who although is trustworthy but used to excessively forget and report with Irsฤl (attributing his narration to his teacherโ€™s teacher by deliberately omitting his teacher in the transmission which is considered a defect) according to Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani rahimahullah.[8]

Ibn Hajar al-Asqallani rahimahullah in his treatise Tabyeenul ujb bima warada fi fadhli Rajab has collected and critically analysed many other similar reports on this issue and has rendered most of them either unreliable or fabricated. What is also noteworthy is that there isnโ€™t a single report where the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam himself dedicated this date for fasting or worshipping. Due to this reason, neither did the classical Hanafi jurists nor the other major schools of thought included fasting on the 27th of Rajab among the Sunnah fasts or worship.[9] One reason that why so much importance is given to this date is the assumption that this was the night of the Prophetโ€™s sallallahu alayhi wasallam ascension (miโ€™rฤj). Firstly, it is not definite that the Prophetโ€™s ascension occurred on this specific night because there are no less than ten different opinions as to when the night of ascension took place (27th Rajab being one of them). Secondly, if hypothetically we assume this to be the night of ascension even so, there is no report where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam or his Companions singled out this date exclusively for worship and fast.

In conclusion, there is no significance in worshipping or fasting on the 27th Rajab in particular. It is evident from the above that the reports adduced to justify its importance are all rejected and unreliable. One is permitted to fast anytime during this month due to the generality in its significance without singling a particular date assuming its virtuousness.

Wiping over Durable Wudhu Socks

Wiping over Durable Wudhu Socks

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆ ุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆ ุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡

Question: Certain socks have been manufactured which are claimed to be durable and fully waterproof. This is due to the fact that it has multiple layers of skins. Is it permissible to make Masah over such socks during Wudhu?

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆ ู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer

The classical fuqahฤ (jurists) have outlined the following basic criteria for the permissibility of wiping wet hands over non-leather socks;

  1. Should cover the ankles
  2. Remain firm onto the foreleg without the need of tying it
  3. Durable enough to walk in them between 1-3 miles
  4. Water is not penetrable into the socks
  5. Not torn to the extent of three small toes
  6. To be worn after completing the wudhu or at least washing the feet

From personal experience and discussion with other senior scholars, the durable wudhu socks you are referring to fulfil the above criteria thus, Masah over them is permissible.
