أَرْكَانُ الْإِسْلَامِ خَمْسَةٌ: وَالدَّلِيْلَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: ((بُنِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ: شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ، وإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ، وإيْتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَالْحَجِّ، وَصَوْمِ رَمَضَانَ)).

Class Summary:
مَا مَعْنَى الْإِسْلَامِ؟
What is the meaning of Islam?
الْإِسْلَامُ هُوَ: تَوْحِيدُ اللهِ وَطَاعَتُهُ. وَالدَّلِيلُ: قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: {وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ دِينَا مِّمَّنْ أَسْلَمَ وَجْهَهُ لِلَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحْسِنُ}

مَا هُوَ الدِّينُ الَّذِي لَا يَقْبَلُ اللهُ دِيْنَا غَيْرَهُ؟
What is the religion that Allāh does not accept any other religion aside from it?
الْإِسْلَامُ هُوَ الدِّينُ الَّذِي لَا يَقْبَلُ اللهُ دِيْنًا غَيْرَهُ. وَالدَّلِيلُ: قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: {وَمَن يَبْتَغِ غَيْرَ الْإِسْلَامِ دِينًا فَلَن يُقْبَلَ مِنْهُ}
Islam is the religion that Allāh does…
وترى الكريم إذا تصرم وصله * يخفي القبيح ويظهر الإحسانا
وترى اللئيم إذا تقضى وصله * يخفي الجميل ويظهر البهتانا.
You will find the noble, when the bond is cut,
conceals what is blameworthy and displays kindness.
But the ignoble, when the bond is ended,
hides the good and displays slander.

Safeguarding Secrets
Sheikh Faisal Al-Hashidi ḥafidhahullāh writes:
Remember, my brother in faith, that one who entrusts you with his secrets is a brother who loves you and has placed his confidence in you. Therefore, be worthy of his trust and protect his secrets just as you would protect any trust—material or otherwise.
Jābir ibn ʿAbdillāh (may Allāh be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ…

Question: Is there any objection to holding a wedding banquet in the masjid, given that the intention is to honour the students of knowledge? Is there any sharʿi prohibition in this?
Sheikh Yahya ḥafidhahullāh:
The Prophet ﷺ and his Companions ate in the masjid, as mentioned in the ḥadīth of ʿAbdullāh ibn Buṣr, in which they remained remembering Allāh until sunrise, then prayed the ḍuḥā prayer. He said: “A large…
This view is stronger, and Allāh knows best: that the ʿArbūn is permissible and lawful for the seller, because the hadith prohibiting it is weak, and the basic legal principle is permissibility. This
In such a case, the buyer is obliged to compensate for the harm suffered by the seller. Yes—the judge would compel him to do so, based on the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: “No harm and no reciprocating har

Sheikh Sulayman Ar-Ruhaili ḥafidhahullāh:
The ʿUrbān—also called Al-ʿarbūn, which is the commonly used term today—is one and the same. Scholars mention that it has two forms: one permissible, and one prohibited according to some of them—that is, according to those who consider it prohibited.
As for the first form: the buyer purchases the item and gives the seller an…
The Ruling on ʿArbūn (Earnest Money) in Sales Transactions
Question: The questioner asks about the sale involving a down payment (ʿarbūn)...
Sheikh comments: The ʿArbūn is well known; Al-ʿurbūn, Al-ʿArabūn, and Al-ʿUrbān are all acceptable linguistic forms.
Question continues: A person wishes to purchase something and pays a sum of money as a deposit, with a stipulated period of time. If he does not pay the…
Ibn Qudāmah (may Allāh have mercy on him) stated in Al-Mughnī [8/282]: "Both ʿUmrā and Ruqbā are permissible according to the majority of scholars. However, some have held that they are invalid because the Prophet ﷺ prohibited them."
He continued: "Our evidence is the narration from Jābir (may Allāh be pleased with him), in which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
((العمرى جائزة لأهلها والرقبى جائزة…
“Gifts given to government workers are a form of misappropriation (ghulul).” [Reported by Ahmad and others]
Abu Humayd As-Sa‘eedi (may Allāh be pleased with him) reported:
أن رسول الله ﷺ استعمل رجلًا على الصدقة، فلما قدِم قال: هذا لكم وهذا أُهدي إليَّ، فقام النبي ﷺ على المنبر، فحمد الله تعالى وأثنى عليه ثم قال: ما بال العامل نبعثه فيأتي ويقول: هذا لكم، وهذا أُهدي إليَّ، أفلا جلس في بيت أبيه وأمه فينظر…

NOTE: illness is divided into two categories:
1) Non-Life-Threatening Illness (like colds, mild headaches, and minor eye or tooth pain)
Ruling= the patient’s financial transactions are fully valid, just like those of a healthy person. Any gifts or financial dispositions made during this period are legally binding, even if the illness later worsens into a life-threatening condition and results in death. The…
5. The gift must be immediate and unconditional. A temporary gift, such as saying, "I gift this to you for a month or a year," is invalid, as gifting constitutes a permanent transfer of ownership.
6. The gift must be given without compensation, as it is a form of pure generosity.

المسألة الثالثة: بعض الأحكام المتعلقة بها
Some Rulings Related to Gifts
The following rulings apply to hibah:
1. A gift becomes binding once the recipient takes possession of it with the giver’s permission. The giver cannot revoke it, as the Prophet ﷺ said in the hadith of ibn Abbās:
((ليس لنا مثل السوء، الذي يعود في…
الهبة هي التبرع من جائز التصرف في حياته لغيره بمال معلوم أو غيره بلا عوض.
A hibah refers to a voluntary transfer of ownership from a legally competent person during their lifetime to another party, involving a specified asset or otherwise, without requiring compensation.
BENEFIT: Al-Muwaffaq Ibn Qudāmah (may Allāh have mercy on him) said:
"The terms hibah, ‘atiyyah (grant), hadiyyah (present), and sadaqah…
"Its principal must neither be sold, gifted, nor inherited."
*NOTE:* A Waqf is established in one of two ways:

a: explicit wording (لفظ صريح), such as saying: “I have endowed this property,” or “I have designated it as waqf.”
b: implicit wording (كناية) provided it is accompanied by the intention of waqf, such as saying: “I have donated…
