I know that in giving Da'wah, we are to start with Tawheed but what about the case of a Muslim that commits sins? Do we first start with Tawheed or do we call him away from his sins? And what if the Muslim is such that he is ignorant about much of the religion and he does not pray regularly or does not pray at all, how do we give da'wah to such people, what do we start with?

[registered]

When many of the brothers in a community do things such as: not attending the congregational prayer, letting the pants go beyond the ankles, cutting the beard, wearing tight pants and other things, which of these does one begin with and does the person being advised have to stop one sin before he is called from another sin, or should he be advised against all of them at the same time? And if one does not advise his brothers, is this a sin?

[registered]

Some times, when I advice my brothers against some sins they commit (for example, letting the pants go beyond the ankles) they say that the scholars have different opinions and they seem to think that a person can choose any opinion. How do I advice them? And in the case where many of the wrong things they do is due to this reason of "difference of opinion," what do I do?

[registered]

How do you advice me to call the non-Muslims around me to Islam; especially in a case where some characteristics of Islam are outwardly displayed but they may not know that these are Islamic characteristics and they do not ask any questions?

[nisshoami]

asalamualikum,

my question is:
noble shaykh,

there are many masjid that are very mixed between men and women, the man openly teach women of all age amongst the men of all age, what is your advice in this regard?

also, is it allowed for women to study under non-mahram man like her brother-in-law while her husband is aware of it and helping to study under him as well, and the study is open amongst the members of the household - i.e. the wife of the brother-in-law and other relatives?

in many countries, the idea of non-mahram is forgotten, thus they are very mixed, so what is your advice to the sisters and brothers who are becoming aware of it and thus finding it hard to cooperate with family and ralatives?

was-salamualikum

[s_sana]

ASSALAAAM ALAIKUM
Questioner asks:
Is it permissible, when making dawah, to use books from non-salafi sources if they do not contain errors or if they contain small errors (if you mention the errors and correct them)?

ASSALAAM ALAIKUM

[nisshoami]

asalamualikum,

my question is, in the filed of da'wah there are many types of people who are calling to islam, some of them are with our noble salafee scholars, and others are far from theM, so what is your advice our noble shaykh in regard to working with these individuals (also organizations, and groups and clubs etc) who do not keep in touch with the mashaykh nor call to keeping in touch with them rather do otherwise.

[Salafiman]

Bismillahi Al-Rahman Al-Raheem,

As-Salaamu 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatu;

May Allah Bless us with that which he has blessed you with in terms of 'Ilm
my question is two fold,

first: what does a caller to Islam do when calling first to tawheed upon the manhaj of the Messengers and Prophets of Allah ( peace and blessings be upon them all) to the people of the book who are family members from the wifes side of the family and they continue to reject the da'wah with aggressive speach?

second: is pictures of hearts or the shape of hearts considered to be among those images that are forbidden to bring in the home and to make with the hands?

May Allah the Most High Continue to Guide you upon the truth and the Manhaj of the Salaf untill you reach your death ameen,

Jazakullahu Khiarun.

I have a question which came up as a thought recently in my mind. I used to visit a few of the islamic websites to read online or to search for an answer to my questions at times. My cousin has got a belief that there are more sites which have been put of by the jews and less knowledgeable person which would make us lead the wrong path. Also i came to know recently when one of my relative related an incident that there are a lot of jews children studying Qur'an and doing research in it and when they grow up they will do iqaamat in Muslim nations. And it has already happened in the past. Such are the ways of treachery of jews to misguide muslims. They even have huge publications units. Now i feel that which ever way you go, either through the internet or through books, we muslims whoever wants to seek knowledge are likely at peril because majority of us do not know the right source nor do we have knowledge to judge the right source. Please share some information and throw some light on this issue as to how to go about seeking knowledge.

HOw should we go about seeking knowledge of islam as we don't know what is right and what is wrong under the name of islam that is being called to through websites with the name of islam and callers who are calling to islam?

asalamualik wa rahma tullahi wabaraka tuhu our noble shaykh

would you please let us know if it is permissible to have competition between two ganders [sisters verse brothers] in memorizing qur'an, hadith, or doing some works as collecting donations etc?

there is an islamic organization called almagrib, they do such competition between brothers and sisters almost always, and also there are clubs and organization in schools and colleges which lead such competition as well.

it often stands out that the sisters or brothers are more concentrated on beating each others up, winning over each others in doing what they are doing then to study the deen for the sake of Allah, it also stands out that they take pleasure in doing this competition between two ganders. it is like opening the door to fitnah instead of bringing benefit.

may allah preserve you, would you please kindly let us know what our position should about such competitions?

[umm3abdullaah]

assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu

Question:

in our country, the reality is that muslims ARE attending mixed-gender universities. so,

1) it is permissible for them to organize themselves in order to call to Allaah and arrange programs for the muslims that ARE already in those environments (i.e. like arranging for prayer areas and halaal food)? how would you advise them?

2) if so, how would you advise those who organize themselves by inter-mixing?

jazaakumullaahu khairann

____________________________________________

questioner's note for translator: the sister means here that many of the muslims DO and WILL attend universities/colleges, may Allaah save us and them, so they do this in order to benefit the muslims and for da'wah. also, with these organizations there are those who have seperate meetings (etc.) and there are those who have mixed-gender meetings (muslims and muslimahs).

A questioner asks:

Is it permissible for a brother to teach sisters without a physical barrier between them? Not all of the sisters wear niqaab.

[nisshoami]

asalamualik wa rahma tullahi wabaraka tuhu!

shaykhuna, there are many organizations and clubs calling to islam in the area where i am, and some of them invite me to help them out in their daw'ah activity,

however they give out booklets which contains many human pictures (things that have soul) and also they make flyers that has the picture of the speaker and also give out pamphlets of groups like ICNA and other organizations that are not known for their correct manhaj or aqeedah,

so Should i help out in these daw'ah activities or no? please advice, i really don't know what to do in such situations.

may allah reward you.

asalamualik wa rahma tullahi wabaraka tuhu

shaykhuna, in college and unveristy around US, we have muslim clubs or organization that have da'wah activities calling non-muslim to islam on the campuse of the college or university,

my question is, is it permissible for muslim women to be in daw'ah activities in the open public campuse where they call kafir women to islam, for example, muslim women do daw'ah tabling calling the non-muslims women to islam in public open space, knowing that sometimes men comes up and mixes up the situations, such that it is not women to women only alone.

also, is it halal for muslim women to be standing in daw'ah tabling where they have some non-mahram muslims brothers standing next to them calling the kafir men and women to islam, with the idea that these non-mahram muslim men will deal with kafir men coming up and women next to them will deal with kafir women?

I live in a small city and there is two salafi masjids within 5 minutes from each other. One masjid was establish first the other broke off to start their own. Now there is two Islamic communities who are opposed off each other, and is causing the community to split. What is the Islamic ruling concerning this matter? Can there be two separate Masjids claiming to follow the way of the salaf and still be against each other?

[IbnYacoob]

Assalamu Alaikkum Warahmathullah...

Hayakumullah Sheikh, can you help in these questions -

1. 1. Who is a Taalib al-Ilm (Student of Knowledge)? Is it like what it literally means that every person who gains knowledge of Dheen from the books of known and unkown scholars and Da'ees, listening to their audios, etc. Or is it that a Taalib al-Ilm is someone more than this, like they are the one's who do all the above under the face to face guidance from Scholars of Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jamah.
>2 2. Can we take the benefit of gaining knowledge from any person or dae'e who has not learned the dheen under the shade of guidance from the known scholars who are majorly spread in the middle east and who even though quote ayah and hadeeth correctly but don’t know the appropriate understanding of them, since they have not learnt under a good guided scholar. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
