Dear @DanBurmawy,

I made a promise I won’t go hard on anybody today because apparently today is our Eid Celebration. But, Burmawi won’t let me.

Your entire argument is a classic display of profound historical and textual ignorance, built on a desperate attempt to sound deep while completely misrepresenting both the Bible and the historical record.

You call the Islamic position theological vandalism. Really? Funnily, you do not even realize you are defending a text that biblical scholars themselves have flagged for centuries as a compromised, heavily edited document.

First of all, let me start with the unforgivable textual contradiction in Genesis 22:2, where your text says, "Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac."

Burmawi, anyone with a basic sense of logic can see the glitch here. Isaac was never, at any point in his life, Abraham’s only son. Ishmael was born fourteen years before Isaac. The only time Abraham ever had an "only son" was before Isaac was even born, when Ishmael was his single child.

This is not even an Islamic argument; this is standard, objective biblical scholarship.

Top Western theologians and textual critics, such as Dr. T.C. Mitchell (former Keeper of Western Asiatic Antiquities at the British Museum) and the renowned biblical scholar Dr. Robert Alter, have written extensively on how the Hebrew word Yachid (only/unique) in this text is completely irreconcilable with Isaac's historical position.

The text explicitly demands a firstborn who was an only child for a period, which historically fits nobody but Ishmael.

What you are reading is a clear case of later scribal interpolation, where later writers crossed out Ishmael's name and inserted Isaac to serve a nationalistic, tribal narrative.

Unfortunately for them, they completely forgot to fix the "only son" blunder they left in the verse. lol 😂

Again, your attempt to reduce Ishmael to a mistake of "human performance" completely exposes your ignorance of the Old Testament itself.

In Genesis 16:11, it is the Angel of the Lord who commands Hagar to name the child Ishmael, which means "God hears." God does not name mistakes.

Also, in Genesis 17:20, God explicitly says, "And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation."

Dr. John Van Seters, a biblical historian noted here that the promises of greatness and covenant blessings given to Ishmael in the text run completely parallel to those given to Isaac. Therefore, calling Ishmael a product of mere human scheming is a direct contradiction of the very scripture you are trying to preach from.

Let me also say that your reliance on Paul’s allegory in Galatians 4 to frame Ishmael as "the law and bondage" is a big chronological leap.

Paul was simply writing an ideological polemic in the first century to convince a Roman-era audience to abandon Jewish legalism.

So, using a first-century rhetorical allegory to rewrite a historical event that happened two thousand years before is not scholarship; it is a desperate theological spin, and that shows how ignorant and mischievous you are.

Burmawi, note this: The Islamic narrative did not hijack or distort anything. Okay? It simply restored the story to its logical, geographical, and historical truth.

Abraham was asked to sacrifice his firstborn, the child of his lonely old age, in absolute submission. You exchanged the historical firstborn for a younger son to fit your tribal exclusivity. Then you wrapped it in flowery language about “grace” versus “works” to hide the factual error.

Next time you want to accuse an entire civilization of theological vandalism, try reading your own book with the lights on first.

I hope this clears your mischief.

Allah knows best.

That crying is the sound of a growing ummah. And it is a test of our own concentration. Instead of getting annoyed, we should be offering a smile or a bit of help to the mother who is likely more stressed than anyone else in the room.

Your "not compulsory" argument is technically true, however, it is often used to exclude women. Just because you don't have to be there doesn't mean you shouldn't be allowed to be there.

A mosque that is perfectly quiet is a mosque that is dying out. We should be grateful for the noise because it means there is a next generation coming up behind us.

He may no longer be here… but his Qur’an recitation still lives on. 🤍📖

May Allah forgive him, have mercy on him, and make the Qur’an a light in his grave.

@Abu_Jawaadd Hehe, and so what's your problem with that ?

[H’s mom @aiishadahir]

Why did Allah choose 4 months and 10 days for a widow after her husband dies?

Not 3 months. Not 6 months.
Not “whenever she feels ready.”

Her heart is grieving…So Why exactly 4 months and 10 days?

[A.Y.O @YusufAsunmogejo]

The technical ruling of this in Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh) is built on a hierarchy of priorities. It is not just a flat "yes" or "no" because the law accounts for human necessity and the protection of the soul.

First of all, the general position across the major schools of thought (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali) is that self-masturbation (Istimna) is prohibited. This is based on the verse in Surah Al-Mu'minun where Allah describes the believers as those who guard their private parts except from their spouses.

However, the scholars move from the general rule to the specific situation. If a woman has high desire and her husband has a medical condition, the technicality changes based on two main points:

1. The Rule of Necessity to protect the woman.

Scholars, particularly in the Hanbali school and some among the Hanafis, state that if a person is in a state of extreme sexual tension where they genuinely fear falling into Zina (adultery), the ruling shifts. This is based on the legal maxim that says: "Necessity makes the prohibited permissible" and the principle of choosing the lesser of two evils.

If the choice is between self-satisfaction and committing a major sin like adultery, the smaller act becomes a concession (Rukhsah) to prevent the destruction of the person's character and faith.

2. The Role of the Husband in this case.

This is the part many people overlook. In Islam, everything between a husband and wife is Halal except for anal sex and intercourse during menstruation. If a husband cannot perform due to a medical reason, he is not out of the game. In fact, it is 100% permissible, and even encouraged, for the husband to use his hands or any part of his body to satisfy his wife.

When the husband is involved, it is no longer considered the prohibited form of masturbation. It is marital intimacy. The scholars emphasize that a husband has a religious obligation to ensure his wife's needs are met to keep her chaste. If he is medically unable to have intercourse, he must use other means to fulfill her.

I will conclude with this: She should not be doing it alone as a first resort. The husband should be the one helping her. If for some extreme reason even that is impossible and she is on the verge of committing Zina, then the law allows the act as a means of protection.

But the primary solution is for the couple to maintain their intimacy through other physical means allowed in marriage. Any scholar who understands the depths of the Maqasid (objectives) of Shariah will tell you that preserving the wife's chastity is a priority that overrides the general dislike of the act.

Allah knows best.

What you are likely dealing with is Madhiy (pre-seminal fluid), which commonly leaks during or after morning erections.

Unlike semen, it is thin and clear, and while it is impure and breaks your Wudu, it does not require a full bath (Ghusl). The rule is that you only need to wash the private part and the spots on your clothing where it touched, then perform a fresh Wudu.

If you find this wetness after you finish praying and you aren't certain it happened during the Salah, your prayer is valid and you do not need to repeat it.

We follow the principle that says: certainty is not overruled by doubt; since you were certain of your purity when you started, you assume you stayed pure unless you have proof otherwise.

To save yourself the stress, make a habit of checking your boxers before you even start your Wudu for Fajr. If you see wetness, wash the area and your clothes then, so you can pray with a clear head.

If you only find it later and the timing is vague, just clean up for the next prayer and move on. Allah does not want religion to be a burden for you, so stop allowing doubt force you into a cycle of repetition that isn't required.

Allah knows best.
