Some thoughts on the phrase Fiqh al-Waaqi‘ (understanding reality) PDF Print E-mail
Fiqh: Islamic Jurisprudence - General

 

Praise be to Allaah.

Firstly: 

The phrase fiqh al-waaqi‘ refers to two things: 

1.

Understanding the circumstances of the person who asked for the fatwa, his situation and the situation of his country. No fatwa concerning issues of jihad should be issued in any country before the mufti has a full picture of the situation in that country. Similarly, he should not issue a fatwa concerning anything that has to do with computers and the Internet, unless he has knowledge of these things and what happens in them. 

 
Sh. Ibn Uthaymeen: Advice on Unity PDF Print E-mail
Fiqh: Islamic Jurisprudence - General

 

I advise my brothers that they should unify their ranks, and that they should be like a single body seeking to establish the Religion of Allah, as Allah - the Most High - said:

"He (Allah) has ordained for you the same religion (Islam) which He ordained for Nuh (Noah), and that which We have inspired in you (O Muhammad ), and that which We ordained for Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses) and 'Iesa (Jesus) saying you should establish religion (i.e. to do what it orders you to do practically), and make no divisions in it (religion)..." [Sura ash-Shooraa 42:13].

Thus it becomes very clear that what is required from us - as it was required from the Prophets who were foremost in resolve - is to establish the Religion and not to make any divisions therein. So our Lord - the Mighty and Majestic - ordered us to establish the Religion and not to make any divisions in it. O my brothers! Unite your ranks, and do not differ, since Allah - the Most High - said:

"And do not dispute with each other, unless you loose courage and your power departs, but be patient. For indeed Allah is with those who are patient." [Sura al-Anfaal 8:46].

Do not label each other as being deviant, nor label each other as being sinners. If you see in any of your brothers that which is objectionable, then go to them and debate with them about this, until your word is unified, and thus cause the Ummah to remain united. None of you should try to slander his brother, since this will cause a great deal of enmity and hatred. Likewise, none of you should declare his Muslim brother to be a disbeliever, innovator or a sinner - since this is not from the nature of a Muslim.

 

 
Is it permissible for a father to compel his daughter into a marriage? PDF Print E-mail
Fiqh: Islamic Jurisprudence - Marriage

 

Question: Is it permissible for a father to compel his daughter into a marriage with someone she does not desire?

Answer: It is not permissible for the father or someone besides him to compel the one who is under his guardianship to marry someone she does not desire to marry. Rather, it is necessary to seek her consent and permission due to the saying of the Messenger (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam): The virgin is not to be married until her consent has been sought. They said: O Messenger of Allaah! What is her consent? He replied: Her silence. And in another wording: And regarding the virgin, her father seeks her consent and her consent is her silence.
