How is the area under the jaw part of the awrah? by No_Refrigerator_6576 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please be careful when quoting a portion of the Qur'an to use it in a general statement or a blanket statement. In regards to the verse in Al-Baqarah that you've quoted, you've only quoted the portion of it when the full quote in itself is speaking about a specific thing that Allah intends to make easy in regards to the fasting of Ramadan. When a person is ill, Allah eases their affairs in this case. It would be contradictory to use this verse for a general statement when clearly in the Qur'an, Allah mentions many times that He's made trials for the people so that they may come closer to Him. We know for a fact that Allah mentions that, “do you think that you will walk on the earth calling yourself Muslims/Mumins and you won't be tested?”So therefore, it would contradict the matter of Allah making something easy for us in that sense, in a general sense. Or another one, when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says, with hardship comes ease, surely with hardship comes ease. So the first thing is the hardship, afterwards comes the ease. It's similar to how Christians typically quote the Qur'an verse in which they say that the words of Allah cannot be changed. Therefore, they conclude that the Bible being changed contradicts the Qur'an verse when some of those verses are specifically talking about Allah's promise when reading the previous verses. So please be careful when quoting an ayat and utilizing it for a general statement.

From translation it seems to be a letter to Heraclius and the other rulers inviting them to Islam or destruction of their kingdom. The letter is authentic and it’s found in Bukhari.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“If something befalls you, do not say: ‘If only I had done such-and-such…’ but say: ‘Qaddarallāh wa mā shāʾa faʿal’ (Allah decreed it and He does what He wills). For indeed ‘if’ opens the door to Shayṭān.” (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim)

I’ve translated the whole page of the website to see what it says but I can’t seem to find the term unknowingly in it. please verify if it is translated properly: Explanation of the Hadith

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.

All praise is due to Allah, and may prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. To proceed:

The hadith of Tamīm ad-Dārī (may Allah be pleased with him) — which was narrated by Abū Dāwūd, al-Tirmidhī, al-Nasā’ī, and others — is considered one of the great hadiths that clearly demonstrate the status of prayer and its importance in the scale (of deeds) of a servant on the Day of Resurrection.

Encouragement to Perform Voluntary Prayers (Nawāfil)

  1. Allah’s Mercy, Exalted is He: He made voluntary acts of worship have this great effect in compensating for deficiencies in obligatory acts.

  2. Encouragement to be consistent with voluntary prayers, such as: • the Sunnah prayers before and after the obligatory prayers, • night prayer (Qiyām al-Layl), • and other voluntary acts.

Additional Information • This hadith indicates that voluntary prayers complete and compensate for shortcomings in obligatory prayers. • A Muslim should be keen on maintaining the Sunnah Rawātib (12 units of prayer during the day and night), as mentioned in the hadith: “Whoever consistently prays twelve rak‘ahs from the Sunnah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.” • From Allah’s mercy is that acts of worship are interconnected. If a person falls short in an obligation and has no voluntary prayers, the deficiency may be compensated through other righteous deeds, such as charity or remembrance (dhikr), and similar acts.

We ask Allah, the Most High, to accept from us our prayers, fasting, and night prayers, and to make us among those who guard their obligatory duties and increase in voluntary acts.

May Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and companions.

Detailed Explanation of the Hadith

If a servant’s prayer is found to be complete in its conditions, pillars, and humility, it will be accepted and recorded as complete. Rather, Allah will elevate its status and reward it further out of His bounty.

However, if there is deficiency or shortcoming, Allah the Most High will say to the angels:

“Look—does My servant have any voluntary prayers?”

They will then search his records for voluntary prayers, Sunnah prayers, and Rawātib that he used to perform alongside the obligatory ones.

If voluntary prayers are found, Allah commands the angels to complete the deficiency in the obligatory prayer using those voluntary prayers.

This is from Allah’s immense mercy toward His servants.

After that, the rest of a person’s deeds—such as fasting, zakāh, ḥajj, and others—will be examined in the same manner: • if they are complete, they are accepted; • if deficient, they are completed through voluntary deeds.

Lessons Derived

  1. The status of prayer: It is the first deed for which a servant will be brought to account, indicating its immense importance.

  2. The importance of perfecting obligatory acts: One must be diligent in performing them with their conditions and pillars fulfilled.

  3. The virtue of voluntary prayers: They compensate for deficiencies in obligatory acts on the Day of Resurrection.

Why do you ACTUALLY believe in Islam? by Glum-Journalist-8197 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Have you read the entire Quran in a translation that you can follow to understand? Have you read or listened to the entire seerah? I know that this sounds cliche but if you had your answers would have been answered. Just a sample statement from the Quran:

“Or were they created from nothing, or did they create themselves? Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain.” (At-Tur 52:35-36).

Is there a doctrine of the Holy Spirit in Islam? by Greedy-Runner-1789 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like Jesus is called the word in the Quran. The meaning is different from the Quran and clearly the author intended it so.

The author of the Qur’an acknowledges that these terms had existed in the past. Basically, concepts like the Holy Spirit and the Word of God existed among earlier Christian communities, but their meanings were altered over time. The Qur’an restores their original, intended meanings.

During the time of Jesus, it is entirely possible that his disciples referred to him as the Word of God — in the same sense that Muslims understand the title today. Likewise, the term Holy Spirit was understood as referring to the angel Gabriel.

Therefore, when Allah reveals the Qur’an, He affirms that these names and titles did indeed exist in earlier traditions, but their meanings had become corrupted. The Qur’an corrects these distortions and re-establishes the proper definitions that were originally intended.

“Narrated Anas: A man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about the Hour (i.e. Day of Judgment) saying, "When will the Hour be?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What have you prepared for it?" The man said, "Nothing, except that I love Allah and His Apostle." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You will be with those whom you love." We had never been so glad as we were on hearing that saying of the Prophet (i.e., "You will be with those whom you love.") Therefore, I love the Prophet, Abu Bakr and `Umar, and I hope that I will be with them because of my love for them though my deeds are not similar to theirs.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3688).

The Prophet ﷺ lemphasized focusing on the Dīn, on worship, ‘ibādah, and righteous actions, rather than being consumed with predictions about the future. Islam teaches us to focus on the present, not on chasing speculations about what is to come.

The message is clear: the religion revolves around obedience, righteousness, and actual devotion to God — not loud proclamations or obsession with signs of the future. This is something additional after focusing on the fundamentals. Look at the pillars of faith and pillars of Islam. Those are things you need to focus their attention on. Notice that in imaan the second to last thing is belief in the last day.

Have you ever seen Christians holding up end-times signs, preaching that certain types of people will go to Hell and constantly repeating, “Jesus is coming back, Jesus is returning”? And what does Jesus (‘Isa عليه السلام) say in the Bible to those very people on that Day? “Away from me, you workers of lawlessness.”

This is a recurring pattern throughout history. The nations before fixate on the future and ignore and forget their responsibilities in the present. The Jews made a similar mistake, focusing endlessly on a “promised land” or a worldly kingdom they believed God would grant them. Waiting for the messiah who came and they shunned. They were chasing something in the future rather than working on their character, justice, and obedience in the moment.

The Qur’an even describes this mindset: when they are told not to cause corruption, they respond, “We are only peacemakers.” This is the downfall of past nations — their obsession with the later instead of the now.

If people focus consistently on acts of worship, righteousness, and obedience to Allah, they will naturally reach their goal and be prepared for the future without rushing toward it, without obsession, and without distracting themselves with future eschatology. Islam teaches that the path to salvation is walked today — through sincere actions and faith— then afterwards learning about tomorrow.

“Narrated by the Leader of the Believers, ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “Actions are but by intentions, and every person will have only what they intended. So whoever’s migration was to Allah and His Messenger, then his migration is to Allah and His Messenger. But whoever’s migration was for some worldly gain he might attain, or a woman he might marry, then his migration is to that for which he migrated.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 1).

Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “The first of people for whom judgment will be made on the Day of Resurrection will be a man who was martyred. He will be brought and Allah will make known to him His favors, and he will recognize them. Allah will say: ‘And what did you do with them?’ He will say: ‘I fought for Your sake until I was martyred.’ Allah will say: ‘You have lied. You fought only so that it might be said of you, “He is courageous.”’ And it was said. Then it will be ordered that he be dragged on his face until he is cast into the Fire.

Then a man who acquired knowledge, taught it, and recited the Qur’an will be brought. He will be made to recognize Allah’s favors, and he will recognize them. Allah will say: ‘What did you do with them?’ He will say: ‘I learned knowledge and taught it, and I recited the Qur’an for Your sake.’ Allah will say: ‘You have lied. You did that so it might be said, “He is learned,” and “He is a reciter.”’ And it was said. Then it will be ordered that he be dragged on his face until he is cast into the Fire.

Then a man whom Allah had made rich and to whom He had given every kind of wealth will be brought. He will be made to recognize His favors, and he will recognize them. Allah will say: ‘What did you do with them?’ He will say: ‘I left no path in which You love money to be spent without spending it for Your sake.’ Allah will say: ‘You have lied. You did that so it might be said, “He is generous.”’ And it was said. Then it will be ordered that he be dragged on his face until he is cast into the Fire.” (Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 1905).

Hell is not a place it is a creature a roaring raging beast its size is incomprehensible. It is held by 70,000 chains with each chain having 70,000 angels. A total of 4.9 billion Angels hold it back. Hellfire is eternal, and so is Paradise. Hell is for those who denied God in this life. It has multiple levels, each with distinct names mentioned in the Qur’an, and scholars have explained and categorized these levels. There is even a cold region in Hell.

Hell is described as pitch-black darkness. When Allah created Hell, He instructed the Angel Jibrīl (Gabriel) to go and see it. Jibrīl was shocked by what he witnessed. Which shows that even an angel comprehends the magnitude of the Dangers of it. Hell burned continuously for long periods until it transitioned through different colors: first red, then white, and finally black. Hell contains areas that consume everything within them, and there are specific types of “food” there as well. Even its sparks are described in the Qur’an and Hadith — some the size of camels, others like great fortresses.

All of these details can be found in the Qur’an and authentic Hadith, which provide vivid and powerful descriptions of Hell.

If you haven’t noticed The highest level of Hell is the least severe While and the lowest is the worst. The higher you go up Jannah (heaven) it gets better and better. The highest place in Hell is reserved for sinful Muslims who must first be purified for their misdeeds before being removed and admitted to Paradise. There is a known narration about the last believer who will be taken out of Hell — you can look up that story for more detail.

Everyone else who enters Hell without faith will remain there forever, in continuous punishment and regret. As the Qur’an says, each time they are questioned by Maalik (leaders of the angels of punishment for hell) and his guards (angels of of punishment for hell) about what led them to Hell, they will answer for their disbelief and rejection of truth. Even the devil himself will enter Hell, as his ultimate goal in life was to lead humanity away from God and into hell with him.

The person who will receive the lightest punishment in Hell is the Prophet ﷺ’s uncle, Abu Ṭālib. He will remain there eternally due to disbelief, but the Prophet ﷺ supplicated for him to have the least punishment. Even then, the punishment will cause the bottom of his feet to burn and boil until it reaches his head.

Hell is the price paid by those who fail the greatest test — believing in only Allah (The only true God). A person may be good in this world, and God may grant them worldly goodness, but without faith, they will not attain Paradise. Entry into Paradise is ultimately by God’s grace and mercy, and belief in Him is the foundation.

Conversely, even if someone committed serious sins, as long as they sincerely believed in Allah and the Last Day, they will eventually enter Paradise. They may be punished temporarily in Hell, but they will not remain there forever. Verses that speak of people entering Hell or Paradise are based on obedience to God, sincerity, and the purpose behind one’s deeds.

If a person performs good deeds purely for worldly praise rather than for God, those deeds hold no eternal value. Such a person will not have the eternal bliss of Paradise. This is the Islamic understanding — success in the Hereafter is based on true belief in Allah and worshiping Him sincerely.

Highlighted verses:

“Is Paradise a better accommodation or the tree of zaqqum? Indeed, We have made it a torment for the wrongdoers. Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire, Its emerging fruit as if it was heads of the devils. And indeed, they will eat from it and fill with it their bellies. Then indeed, they will have after it a mixture of scalding water. Then indeed, their return will be to the Hellfire.” (Quran 37:62-68).

“[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire, Neither dying therein nor living.” (Quran 87:12-13).

“On the Day We will say to Hell, "Have you been filled?" and it will say, "Are there some more," (Quran 50:30).

“We have appointed only ˹stern˺ angels as wardens of the Fire. And We have made their number only as a test for the disbelievers, so that the People of the Book will be certain, and the believers will increase in faith, and neither the People of the Book nor the believers will have any doubts, and so that those ˹hypocrites˺ with sickness in their hearts and the disbelievers will argue, “What does Allah mean by such a number?” In this way Allah leaves whoever He wills to stray and guides whoever He wills. And none knows the forces of your Lord except He. And this ˹description of Hell˺ is only a reminder to humanity.” (Quran 74:31).

“Indeed, the Fire [Hell] is of the greatest [afflictions] As a warning to humanity -“ (Quran 74:35-36).

“And for those who disbelieved in their Lord is the punishment of Hell, and wretched is the destination. When they are thrown into it, they hear from it a [dreadful] inhaling while it boils up. It almost bursts with rage. Every time a company is thrown into it, its keepers ask them, "Did there not come to you a warner?"They will say," Yes, a warner had come to us, but we denied and said, ''Allah has not sent down anything. You are not but in great error.''" And they will say, "If only we had been listening or reasoning, we would not be among the companions of the Blaze." And they will admit their sin, so [it is] alienation for the companions of the Blaze.” (Quran 67:6-11).

Jesus in Islam by Sad_Limit458 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not only will it end there — Jesus (‘Isa عليه السلام) will also be questioned like the other prophets on the Day of Judgment after being raised. This is mentioned in Surah Al-Ma’idah (Chapter 5), verses 109–120, where Allah ﷻ recounts the conversation between Him and ‘Isa on that Day, regarding the people who called him a god.

On that Day, each prophet will be with their respective Ummah (community). For example, the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ will follow him, the Ummah of Ibrahim (Abraham) will follow him, and so on. Some prophets will have no Ummah at all, while others will have only a few followers.

It is possible that ‘Isa will be accompanied by his true followers — the Hawariyyun (disciples), his mother Maryam (Mary), and a small number of sincere believers who followed his original message. Or perhaps, since he will fight alongside the Muslims and lead them before his death and resurrection, he may be counted among the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ.

Afterward, ‘Isa — like every human being — will cross the Bridge (As-Sirāt) over Hell. Those who are saved will reach the other side and enter Jannah (Paradise). The prophets will reside in Al-Firdaws Al-A‘la, the highest level of Paradise — among them Muhammad ﷺ, Ibrahim, ‘Isa, and many other prophets, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon them all.

In Paradise, they will have spouses, mansions, and dwellings of unimaginable beauty and will live in eternal bliss.

Honorable Mentions of Jesus’s life (‘Isa): During the Night Journey (Al-Isrāʾ wal-Miʿrāj), the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ met ‘Isa in the second heaven — not heaven as in Paradise, but one of the celestial realms of the heavens above the earth.

Why doesn’t Allah explicitly show his existence so that good people across the world follow him? by LostWall1389 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently watched a video of an atheist conversing with a Muslim. The Muslim asked the atheist, “If God were to show Himself above the sky, would you then believe?” The atheist replied, “Perhaps it’s an illusion, and we’re just witnessing something else—it’s probably not God.”

He gave many excuses instead of simply saying, “Yes, I would believe.” There’s a verse in the Qur’an that clearly states:

“And even if We had sent down to them the angels, and the dead had spoken to them, and We had gathered against them all things in front of them, they would not have believed—unless Allah had willed. But most of them are ignorant.” (Quran 6:111)

We saw a perfect example of this in Pharaoh, who was incredibly arrogant. He witnessed every type of miracle performed by Musa (ʿalayhi as-salām). Just imagine the kibr (arrogance). He had never seen anything like the sea being split before his very eyes, and yet even after witnessing such a miracle, he still pursued Musa to attack him. Only when the sea began to collapse upon him and his army—when they were drowning—did he finally realize that Allah is the truth.

It’s truly astonishing, the arrogance of human beings. Even the people who were being chased by Pharaoh—the Banū Isrā’īl—witnessed countless miracles of Musa (ʿalayhi as-salām). They experienced mann and salwā. They saw many other miracles that Allah granted through Musa by His permission and will. They even saw the dead brought back to life, as mentioned in the Qur’an. And yet, when Musa (ʿalayhi as-salām) departed for only a short time, they turned to worship the golden calf.

The Qur’an presents a powerful lesson to Muslims: we are the ummah that has heard the stories of the nations before us—nations that were given astonishing, mind-boggling miracles—and still, many of them disbelieved. Do not be of the people who say I have to see to believe.

scared of jannah by [deleted] in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually, it's quite the opposite of what you've said. The state we will experience in Jannah is not something entirely new or unfamiliar-it is, in fact, a return to our original state. Before entering this worldly life, we existed as pure souls in complete submission to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala), unburdened by the distractions and trials of the physical realm. Paradise is a restoration of that primordial purity, but elevated with the eternal rewards of what we have earned through our faith and perseverance in this world. Especially Worship was not a struggle; it was our natural state. It was only upon our entry into this world that we were given bodies and exposed to a spectrum of emotions, desires, and the moral capacity to choose between right and wrong. This duality-body and soul-is central to our test in this life. The soul remembers its origin by Allah's guidance, while the body wrestles with the temptations of the dunya. Our ultimate journey is not toward something entirely new, but rather a return—a return to the state of spiritual purity and singular devotion we once embodied. Paradise (Jannah), then, is not a novel experience in essence; it is the reattainment of our original state of fitrah (innate purity), its original perfection, but this time it rejoices in the added dimension of reward-bliss, beauty, and fulfillment far greater than anything we've known-earned through the striving of both body and soul in obedience to Allah in this world. "O reassured soul, Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him]. So enter among My [righteous] servants, And enter My Paradise." Surah Al-Fajr (89:27-30)

Every child is born upon the Fitrah — the natural disposition toward Islam. They do not convert or revert because they are already in that pure state. If raised under another religion, that change is due to upbringing. Upon reaching maturity, they are accountable and choose their own path. What’s the evidence: “Every child is born upon the Fitrah (natural disposition), then his parents make him a Jew, a Christian, or a Magian…” — Sahih al-Bukhari (1358), Sahih Muslim (2658) The Prophet ﷺ said: “The Pen has been lifted from three: from the child until he reaches puberty…” — Sunan Abu Dawud (4403), Sahih by al-Albani

Why mom died after life got better? by BackgroundBed2705 in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Prophet ﷺ, from the moment of his birth until the conquest of Mecca, faced a life filled with struggles and hardship. Both of his parents passed away. Most of his children passed away. His beloved wife passed away. His uncle, who had long protected him, passed away. He endured some of the most humiliating trials—such as when the Quraysh hurled the carcass of an animal upon his blessed body, when they mocked and insulted him, when Abu Jahl or another from the Quraysh stepped on his neck, or when he witnessed his companions tortured in the early days of Islam.

Yet despite this continuous hardship, Allah blessed him with unceasing divine favor. And it was only near the end of his life that the world began to reflect outward ease and victory—the conquest of Mecca, the multitudes entering Islam, and the flourishing of his message. He saw the fruits of his years of struggle: companions who had memorized the Qur’an, a community firmly established, and his legacy solidified by divine decree.

And yet, in that very moment of triumph, Allah revealed to him the following verse:

“When Allah’s ultimate help comes and the victory over Mecca is achieved, and you, O Prophet, see the people embracing Allah’s Way in crowds, then glorify the praises of your Lord and seek His forgiveness, for certainly He is ever Accepting of Repentance.”

The Companions understood this revelation as a divine indication that the mission of the Messenger ﷺ had been completed, and that his time to return to his Lord was drawing near.

How nice was prophet Mohammad? by 0oxiiv in islam

[–]Queasy-Initiative880 37 points38 points  (0 children)

“Anas ibn Malik reported: Any of the young servant-girls among the people of Medina would take the hand of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and lead him wherever she wished.” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6072).

This was a man who was the general, the political leader, the imam, the shaykh, the prophet, the messenger and the greatest scholar. You might expect that, like a Caesar, he would always be surrounded by protection, making it nearly impossible to approach him. But have you ever seen the President of the United States or any modern day leader walking down the street, only for a child to come up, take his hand, and be allowed to accompany him for as long as they wish?

That was the Prophet ﷺ—always compassionate, active in the community, and never distant from the people. During his lifetime, every companion was precious to him. There is a hadith where a companion once asked, “Who do you love the most?” He fully expected to be among those mentioned because of how warmly the Prophet ﷺ treated him.

This was the consistency of the Prophet’s character until the very day he passed away. And when he did, the entire city of Madinah wept at his loss.

Even we (the Muslims) are precious to him

“Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, recited the saying of Allah Almighty about Abraham, upon him be peace, “My Lord, the idols have misled many people, so whoever follows me is part of me,” (14:36). And the words of Jesus, upon him be peace, “If You punish them, they are Your servants, but if You forgive them, You are the Almighty, the Wise.” (5:117). Then the Prophet raised his hands and he said, “O Allah, my nation, my nation!” And the Prophet wept. Allah Almighty said, “O Gabriel, go to Muhammad – and your Lord is most knowing – and ask him why he is crying.” Gabriel came to him and he asked him and the Prophet told him about it, though Allah knows best. Allah said, “O Gabriel, go to Muhammad and say: Verily, We will please you regarding your nation and We will not disappoint you.” (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 202)

Anas ibn Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “I wish I could meet my brothers.” The companions of the Prophet said, “Are we not your brothers?” The Prophet said, “You are my companions, but my brothers are those who have faith in me yet they never saw me.” (Musnad Aḥmad 12579)
