Question
12:
How is it to make Du'ā or recite
Munājāt or Na'at etc. loudly during Ṭawāf?
Answer:
To recite Munājāt etc. so loudly
that the voice causes inconvenience to other Ṭawāf-performing or Ṣalāh-offering
people is Makrūh Taḥrīmī, impermissible and a sin. However, there is no harm in
reciting it in a low voice provided no one is inconvenienced by it. There is a
matter of concern for those whose mobile ringtones cause great inconvenience to
worshippers during Ṭawāf. They should repent. Remember that these rulings apply
not only to Masjid-ul-Ḥarām but also to all other Masājid and places. Musical
ringtone is impermissible even if one is not in Masjid.
Questions
and answers about Iḍṭibā' and Raml
Question
1:
If someone forgot to perform Raml
during the first round of Ṭawāf, what should he do?
Answer:
Performing Raml is Sunnah during the
first three rounds only. It is Makrūh to perform it during every round.
Therefore, if someone forgets to perform Raml during the first round, he should
perform it during the second and third rounds. If Raml is missed during the first
two rounds, it should be done during the third round. If it is not performed
during the first three rounds, it can no longer be performed during the rest
four rounds.
(Durr-e-Mukhtār,
Rad-dul-Muḥtār, vol. 3, pp. 583)
Question
2:
If Iḍṭibā' and Raml are not
performed during the Ṭawāf in which these are to be performed, what will be the
expiation?
Answer:
Though there is no expiation for
missing Iḍṭibā' and Raml, it is deprivation from a great Sunnah.
Question
3:
What if one performs Raml during
every round?
Answer:
It is Makrūh Tanzīhī. However, there
is no expiation for it.
Questions
and answers about kissing and caressing
Question
1:
How is it to touch wife in the state
of Iḥrām?
Answer:
Touching wife without lust is
permissible but holding her hands or touching her body with lust is Ḥarām. If
someone lustfully kisses his wife or caresses her body, Dam will be Wājib for
him. Whether these actions are done to a woman or an Amrad [a beardless
beautiful boy] there is the same ruling.
(Durr-e-Mukhtār,
Rad-dul-Muḥtār, vol. 3, pp. 667)
If the wife who is in the state of
Iḥrām also feels lust during these actions of her husband, she will also have
to pay Dam.
(Bahār-e-Sharī'at,
vol. 1, pp. 1173)
Question
2:
If someone has lustful thoughts or
looks at someone else's private part and ejaculates, what will be the
expiation?
Answer:
There will be no expiation in this
case.
('Ālamgīrī,
vol. 1, pp. 244)
As for taking a glance at a
non-Maḥram woman or an Amrad or having lustful thoughts about them, this is a
Ḥarām act leading to Hell even when one is not in the state of Iḥrām. If these
filthy thoughts come into someone's mind, he should reject them instead of
enjoying them. These rulings are the same for women.
Question
3:
Is there any expiation, if nocturnal
emission takes place in the state of Iḥrām.
Answer:
There is no expiation.
('Ālamgīrī,
vol. 1, pp. 244)
Question
4:
Allah ﷻ
forbid, if a Muḥrim commits masturbation, what will be the expiation?
Answer:
If ejaculation takes place as a
result of masturbation, Dam will be Wājib, otherwise, it is Makrūh. This
shameful act is impermissible and Ḥarām leading to Hell irrespective of whether
or not one is in the state of Iḥrām. A'lā Ḥaḍrat رَحْمَةُ
اللّٰهِ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ has said: On the Day of Judgement, those
who masturbate will be resurrected with their palms pregnant, and thus will be
disgraced in front of a great multitude of people.
(Mulakhkhaṣ
az: Bahār-e-Sharī'at, vol. 22, pp. 244)
Shaking
hands with Amrad in Iḥrām
Question
5:
If someone feels lust while shaking
hands with an Amrad¹ (i.e. a beardless beautiful boy) what is the penalty?
Answer:
Dam will be Wājib. There is no
specification for an Amrad & non-Amrad in this matter. If both felt lust,
and the other is also a Muḥrim, he must also pay Dam.
Walking
hand in hand with wife
Question
6:
If the husband and the wife when
performing Ṭawāf or Sa'ī hand in hand with each other feel lust, what will be
the ruling?
Answer:
Dam will become Wājib for the one
who feels lust. If both of them have felt lust, both will have to pay a Dam
each. If men holding each others' hands in the state of Iḥrām feel lust, there
is the same ruling.
¹ If one feels lust due to seeing or
touching a boy or man, it is mandatory to stay away from such a person
irrespective of whether or not one is in the state of Iḥrām. If lust
intensifies as a result of shaking hands with him or touching or talking to
him, then all these acts are not permissible. For detailed information, read
'Abuses of the People of Lut' [a 56-page publication of Maktaba-tul-Madīnah,
the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami].
Questions
and answers about cutting nails
Question
1:
If a person who is unaware of the
ruling cuts the nails of his both hands and feet in ignorance, is there any
leniency for him?
Answer:
On such an occasion, ignorance is
not an excuse. Whether someone commits an offence forgetfully or deliberately,
willingly or under coercion, he will have to pay expiation in all cases.
Ṣadr-ush-Sharī'ah رَحْمَةُ اللّٰهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْهِ has stated: If he has
trimmed all five nails of one hand and one foot or all twenty nails of both
hands and both feet in one sitting, he will be required to give one Dam. If he
has trimmed less than five nails of a hand or foot, he is required to pay a
Ṣadaqah for each trimmed nail. Even if he has trimmed four nails of each hand
and each foot, he has to pay sixteen Ṣadaqāt. If the amount of sixteen Ṣadaqāt
is equivalent to that of a Dam, he can pay a little less than the amount of Dam
or he is allowed to pay Dam. If he has trimmed all five nails of one hand or
those of one foot in one sitting and all five nails of the other in another
sitting, two Dam will be Wājib for him. Likewise, if he has trimmed the nails
of both hands and both feet in four different sittings, four Dam will be Wājib
for him.
(Bahār-e-Sharī'at,
vol. 1, pp. 1172; 'Ālamgīrī, vol. 1, pp. 344)
Question
2:
If a person trims nails with his
teeth, what is the penalty?
Answer:
Whether one cuts nails with his
teeth or a razor or a knife or nail-clippers, the ruling is the same.
(Bahār-e-Sharī'at,
vol. 1, pp. 1172)
Question
3:
Can a Muḥrim cut the nail of someone
else?
Answer:
No, he cannot. The ruling is the
same as for shaving someone else's hair.
(Al-Maslak-ul-Mutaqassiṭ
lil-Qārī, pp. 332)
