Marrying a Woman After Committing Zinaa with Her

Question: A Muslim man committed Zinaa (fornication) with a woman who was not Muslimah and she became pregnant by him. Then, after she delivered the child for him, she accepted Islaam. So what is the ruling on the child? Is it considered legally his child according to the Sharee'ah? Answer: The child is not legally his according to the Sharee'ah, because the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa 'alaa aalihi wa sallam) said, "The child (from fornication) belongs to the bed (meaning

Shaykh Bin Baaz on Polygamy and Losing the Balance between Wives

Host of the Program: The next letter has come to the program (the radio program, Nurun 'alad-Darb) from Iraq. The woman who sent it is named Hafsah Yoonus Muhammad. Our sister asks a group of questions, and among them is a question about her uncle who married a new wife and he has no concern for anything but her and her children, while he has neglected the children of his first wife. What do you think (about this), if you would be so kind, O eminent Shaykh? Ash-Shaikh Bin Baa

The Obligation of a Woman Obeying her Husband

It is obligatory on you O Muslim woman to obey your husband in matters of good. Abu Hurairah reported that Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: “If a woman prays her five (daily) prayers and keeps her private parts chaste and obeys her husband, she will enter Paradise from any of the doors of Paradise she wishes.” [Reported by Ibn Hibbaan in his Saheeh] From Abu Hurairah (radyAllaahu ‘anhu), Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: “It i

The Complete Guidance on the Rules of Wiping (over Footwear)

1. Wiping over the shoes: As for wiping over the shoes (na'alayn) [1] when performing ablution, then it has become popular amongst the contemporaries to say that it is not permissible to wipe over them. And we do not know of any evidence to support that claim, other than what has been stated by Al- Bayhaqee (rahimahullaah) in his Sunan (1/288): "The asl is the obligation for washing the feet, unless there is an established aspect of the Sunnah that makes it more specific

The Etiquettes of Relieving Oneself

I will begin first with that which is related to wudoo (Ablution). But before that I will speak about the etiquettes of relieving oneself, such as by urinating or defecating. It is prescribed for the Muslim, when he desires to relieve himself, that he distance himself (from the people). This is based on what has been reported from Al-Mugheerah bin Shu’bah (radyAllaahu ‘anhu) who said: “Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: ‘Hold this container.’ Then he

The Conditions for the Proper Hijaab

Second: An explanation of the conditions required for the Hijaab to fulfill its religious objective. Below is a list of the Hijaab’s necessary conditions: 1. The Hijaab must cover a woman’s entire body, based on Allaah’s statement: “O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the believing women to cast their jalaabeeb over themselves (i.e. their bodies).” [33:59] You have already come to know from what we have written previously that the jilbaab is a long garment th

The Ruling on Shaking Hands Between Men & Women

Question: “It has become very common amongst us in these days, when a man goes away on a journey and then returns, a group of women from his “group” come to him and greet him and kiss him and so on, during the days of ‘Eid, such as ‘Eid-ul-Fitr and ‘Eid-ul-Adhaa. Is this permissible?” Answer: It is well known from evidences in the Qur’aan and the Sunnah,[1] that a woman must not shake hands with or kiss a male that is not a mahram to her, whether it is an occasion of celebr

The Status of Women Before & After Islaam

The Status of the Woman before Islaam: What is meant “before Islaam” here is the period known as Jaahiliyyah (Days of Ignorance), which the Arabs used to live in specifically and the people of the whole world in general. This was when the people did not have any Messengers amongst them and they were void of any guidance. And as is stated in the hadeeth, “Allaah looked at them – both Arabs and Non-Arabs – and hated them, except for some remnants from the People of the Book (

Rulings Derived from the Evidences on Hijaab

First: A clarification of the rulings that can be derived from the evidences on Hijaab, and they are as follows: 1. The obligation of the legislated Hijaab is definite and binding on all of the believing women, there being no room for lenience or negotiation with regard to abolishing it or belittling its status and its significance. 2. A clarification that the Prophet’s chaste wives and noble daughters serve as the best examples and most outstanding role models for all M

The Dislike of Marriage with Women from the People of the Book -nowadays- and its Evil Consequences

The Imaam, the Father Sheikh 'Abdul 'Azeez bin 'Abdillah bin Baaz -may Allaah's mercy be upon him- says: Marriage with other than Muslim Women contains in it elaboretness. [TN: It's not as simple as we think. And the Sheikh will explain bi ithnillah]. Idolatresses, Communist and likewise Buddhist Women are not permissible to marry. As for chaste women from the People of the Book who are known for having chastity, decency and being distant from the avenues of fornication, th
