May Allāh have mercy on Abul-Ḥasan ’Ali ibn Abdil-’Azīz Al-Jurjāni, who said in his Meemiyyah:
يَقُولُونَ لِي فِيكَ انْقِبَاضٌ وَإِنَّمَا ... رَأَوْا رَجُلًا عَنْ مَوْقِفِ الذُّلِّ أَحْجَمَا
They say I am reserved and withdrawn, but in truth,
They have only seen a man who refuses to stand in a place of humiliation.
أَرَى النَّاسَ مَنْ دَانَاهُمُ هَانَ عِنْدَهُمُ ... وَمَنْ أَكْرَمَتْهُ عِزَّةُ النَّفْسِ أُكْرِمَا
I see that those who lower themselves are belittled by others,
While those who uphold…

BENEFIT: Maryam – The only woman explicitly named in the Qur’ān
Imām Al-Qurṭubi, may Allāh have mercy on him, said:
«لم يذكر الله عز وجل امرأة وسماها باسمها في كتابه إلا مريم ابنة عمران، فإنه ذكر اسمها في نحو من ثلاثين موضعا، لحكمة ذكرها بعض الأشياخ، فإن الملوك والأشراف لا يذكرون حرائرهم في الملأ، ولا يبتذلون أسماءهن، بل يكنون عن الزوجة بالعرس والأهل والعيال ونحو ذلك، فإن ذكروا الإماء لم يكنوا عنهن ولم يصونوا أسماءهن عن الذكر والتصريح بها، فلما قالت النصارى في مريم ما قالت…
Making Up for Missed Zakat on Worn Gold Due to Ignorance
A questioner asks: We used to believe that worn gold was not subject to zakat, and some people had told us this. However, we later learned that the correct opinion is that zakat is obligatory on a woman's gold if it reaches the minimum threshold. What should we do regarding the past years in which we did not pay zakat based on that belief?

BENEFIT: The name Juwayriyah is used for both males and females.
Al-Munāwi, may Allāh have mercy on him, stated in Fayḍ Al-Qadīr (7155):
«جويرية تصغير جارية...واسمه مما يشترك فيه الرجال والنساء، وهو أحد وفد عبد القيس»
"Juwayriyah is the diminutive form of Jāriyah...and this name is shared by both men and women, and he was one of the delegates of 'Abd Al-Qays." [End quote]

These terms may be unfamiliar to those who have not encountered them before. In this lecture, we clarify that these concepts are not new; rather, what is new is the lack of awareness or misunderstanding surrounding them.
SUMMARY:
- The term 'Salaf' essentially refers to the Sahabah and includes those who preceded us in adhering to their creed and methodology.

How to Deal With a Wife Who is in Contact With Other Men
Question: He says that he has discovered his wife's infidelity through her mobile phone, as she has been in contact with strange men. They have two children together, and he remains uncertain about what to do. He also states that this has happened repeatedly, leaving him unsure whether he is in a dream or lost in confusion. He is on the verge of collapse.…
Fear of Showing Off (Riyā') and the Deception of Shayṭān
Sheikh Fatḥ Al-Qadasi ḥafidhahullāh says:
Fear of riyā' is one of the gateways through which Shayṭān leads people away from righteousness. He instills in you the fear of riyā' to prevent you from performing good deeds, ultimately depriving you of many acts of worship.
If you are encouraged to give charity, you might refuse, saying, "I fear riyā'." If you are asked to join the congregation and stand in the first…
This was the opinion of Sheikh Al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah, who said:
«وَلَا حَدَّ لِأَقَلِّ النِّفَاسِ وَلَا لِأَكْثَرِهِ وَلَوْ زَادَ عَلَى الْأَرْبَعِينَ أَوْ السِّتِّينَ، أَوْ السَّبْعِينَ، وَانْقَطَعَ فَهُوَ نِفَاسٌ وَلَكِنْ إنْ اتَّصَلَ فَهُوَ دَمٌ فَسَادٌ، وَحِينَئِذٍ فَالْأَرْبَعُونَ مُنْتَهَى الْغَالِبِ»
"There is no minimum or maximum duration for nifās. Even if it exceeds forty, sixty, or seventy days and then stops, it is still nifās. However, if it continues…
The Weakness of Hadiths Restricting Nifās to 40 Days
In this regard, there are several marfū‘ (elevated) hadiths, though they contain weaknesses.
Among the strongest of them is the narration reported by Imām Aḥmad (26561), Abū Dāwūd (311), Ibn Mājah (648), and al-Tirmidhī (139) from Mussah Al-Azdiyyah, who narrated from Umm Salamah that she said:
((كانت النفساء تجلس على عهد رسول الله ﷺ أربعين يومًا)).

What is the ruling on oral intercourse?
Sheikh Aḥmad An-Najmi raḥimahullāh answered:
As for a woman performing oral stimulation on her husband's private part, this is forbidden and not permissible. This is because the private part becomes erect, and when it does, pre-ejaculatory fluid (madhiy), which is impure by consensus, is released. If it enters her mouth and then her stomach, it may cause illness. Sheikh…
Validity of Divorce Issued During Menstruation/Postpartum Bleeding and How to Calculate The ’iddah
Sheikh Yahya hafidahullah said:
The Prophet ﷺ referred to menstruation as nifās when he said (addressing ’Ā'ishah), "Are you in state nifās?"
He referred to menstruation as nifās. So the term nifās may be used in reference to menstruation. Can nifās be referred to as hayḍh/menstruation? No. Despite this…
Postpartum Bleeding Exceeding Forty Days: Should a Woman Pray?
Sheikh Rashād Adh-Dhali'ee hafidahullah said:
She should wait until she experiences purity. The narrations which mention that a woman in nifās must wait a period of forty days before taking ghusl and resuming prayer are all weak. What's correct is that she should wait until she attains purity, even if the bleeding continues for fifty or sixty days.…
Heavy Bleeding During Pregnancy And Its Effect on Prayer
Sheikh Rashād Adh-Dhali'ee hafidahullah said:
If the bleeding occurs within the first forty days of pregnancy—during the stage when the embryo is still a nuṭfah (a drop of fluid)—then this does not affect her obligation to pray. There is consensus among scholars on this matter. She is not considered to be in a state of nifās (postpartum bleeding), even if…
Question: Is it true that Imam Al-Albāni (may Allāh have mercy on him) fasted for forty days without consuming any food, drinking only water? And can this be termed "medical fasting"?
Sheikh Najeeb Ash-Shar’abi hafidahullah:
Imam Al-Albāni (may Allāh have mercy on him) himself responded to this question in Silsilat Al-Ahadith Aḍh-Ḍha’eefah (vol. 1, p. 419), where he stated:
"Towards the end of the year 1379…
Does Divorce Take Effect If The Husband Still Loves His Wife?
Question: A man says that his wife served him dinner during Ramaḍhān. As he began eating, he noticed that his child—who is the son of his other wife—was sick. He told his wife that he would take the child for medical assistance, but she insisted that he finish his meal first and prevented him from leaving. He became angry, and since he suffers from…
