Prayer

14 Jul

The Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam had said: between every 2 Athans (the Athan and Iqamah) there is a prayer (2 rak’ah nafl).

May I ask the reason why? There’s a huge debate here amongst friends just to educate us. Basically, the debate is that it’s my brother’s wish and not mine. So, I’m simply carrying out his wish. My position is that I can’t carry out his wish of cremation because it goes against my belief in that the fire is reserve for only Allah, not man.

Cremation is the doing of the Hindus and not the Muslims! Our Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam ordered us to wash the deceased and to bury him after offering funeral prayers! He told us that honoring a deceased is by hastening to bury him. If he ordered his body to be thrown to lions […]

I live in the US. My brother a non practicing muslim, created a will to outline what he wants to happen when he dies. He wants his body to be creamated. Can I as a muslim honor that request? Or, should I tell him I cannot fulfill his wish while he’s alive today?

Is it forbidden to pray nafl salah after maghrib? Also the awabeen prayer after maghrib is this authentic and if not then is it bida to pray after maghrib?

Prayer

No, nafil prayer is not forbidden at any time except after Fajr uptil the sun rises a little high, at noon for few minutes when the sun is overhead and after Asr. Awabeen prayer is duha prayer and there isn’t any such prayer after Maghreb as the hadeeth is not authentic.

An Imam of the Masjid stated that during Ramadan there is no zawal time or forbidden time to pray before dhuhr. I have searched for this and found no evidence, could you please answer.

Both have same reward, and Allah knows the best.

is it permissible to use a soap with one of the ingredients being haram animal fat, if we do not know for certain whether the fat has or has not been changed into another substance? Is it sufficient that it has a name on the ingredient list such as “sodium tallowate”, meaning the fat has been mixed with sodium to form soap?
