The Prophet ﷺ said:
((لِيَخْرُجْنَ وَهُنَّ تَفِلاَت))
“But they may go out (to the masjid) having not perfumed themselves.”
[Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawood no. 565]
Shaikh Abdul-Muhsin al-‘Abbad hafidhuhallah explained:
“There is not with them a good scent. Verily, they come out in their usual scent which does not have perfume. Verily they come out of their houses without…

Shaykh Jumʿān Laḥmar (حفظه الله ورعاه) was asked:
If a man prevented his wife from going to pray Ṣalāh at the ʿEīd Muṣallā, is there sny sin upon him?
He answered:
"If he prevented her without a [valid] reason, and the Muṣallā was of Ahl al-Sunnah, then yes; he is sinful, because the ʿEīd Ṣalāh is Wājib for the men and women,…
Don't talk too much!
Some of the Salaf would refrain from accepting narrations from certain narrators due to their excessive talking

Questioner: May Allāh reward you and bless you. What is the ruling on carrying out the marriage contract after the Friday prayer in the masjid, with dates distributed among those present? May Allāh re
Sheikh Salih Al-Luhaidan, may Allah have mercy on him, responds:
If this is based on the belief that performing the marriage contract in this place, at this time, and in this manner by distributing dates to be an act of worship, then this is an innovation. However, if they do so because it is difficult for them to gather at any other time, then there is no harm. And Allah knows best.

Question: Is it Sunnah to carry out the marriage contract inside the masjid?
Sheikh Albani, may Allāh have mercy on him, responds:
"No, it is not Sunnah; rather, it is an innovation. The hadith that states, 'Announce this marriage and beat the drum for it,' is authentic up to this point. However, the part that says, 'and make it in the masjid,' is weak. Is that clear?"
@womensbenefits
Questioner: May Allāh bless you. There is a question: Some people believe that it is recommended to perform the marriage contract (nikah) in the masjid. Is there any evidence to support this?
Sheikh 'Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, responds:
The recommendation to perform the marriage contract in the masjid has no basis or evidence from the Prophet ﷺ. However, if it so happens that the groom and the guardian are present in the masjid and the contract is performed there, then there is no problem with this (i.e. Mubāḥ). This is because it does not fall under the same category as buying and selling,…
Questioner: your Eminence, may Allāh grant you success, what is the ruling on performing the marriage contract inside the masjid?
Sheikh Al-Fawzan, may Allah preserve him, responds:
It is Sunnah. It is recommended to perform the marriage contract inside the masjid...Yes, because it is not like buying and selling. The prohibition relates to buying and selling and worldly matters. As for the marriage contract, it is not intended as a commercial transaction. Yes.

Pap Smear test / cervical screening

٠ If the test is not necessary (i.e. there's no cause for concern and is merely being encouraged as a routine checkup), then it is not permissible due to what it involves of exposing one's 'Awrah unnecessarily.
