A preacher jokes during Khutba so that people will not get sleepy

My question is regarding giving Khutbah or sermon prayer. I have heard that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) when he gave his Friday Khutbah, his eyes turned red in seriousness. Is this true? So, if it is, is it permissible for an Imam or Khatib to add a little joke on his sermon as to add a little humour so that the Ma'moom will not.. More

Duties of the Imam

Here in Mauritius we have a lot of social problems in our Islamic community, and I believe the cure to these problems is to have people with good Islamic knowledge and social power, e.g. the Mutawalli of a mosque. Here in Mauritius, unfortunately being a Mutawalli is just a title; besides looking into the daily running of the Masjid, he is not even.. More

Wearing perfume containing alcohol and ability to pray

I read in one of your Fatwa that "perfumes mixed with alcohol are Najasa" and if you use them you can't perform prayers. I live in USA and my job requires me to be clean and smell nice. I don't think I can find perfume or cologne in USA not mixed with alcohol. What do you advise me to do?.. More

Raising hands before and after Ruku'

I had a question concerning Raful Yadain (raising hands before and after Ruku’). It has come to my knowledge that it was originally commanded by the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) because the Muslims used to hide idols under their arms, and this "raising of hands" would drop the idols. Later after the Muslims realized that.. More

Hadith about getting up in prayer from the second prostration

Can I use this Hadith as a proof that it is Sunnah to support on the ground when we are getting up in prayer: Narrated Ayub: ‘Abu Qilaba said, "Malik bin Huwairith came to us and led us in the prayer in this mosque of ours and said, 'I lead you in prayer but I do not want to offer the prayer but just to show you how Allah's Apostle performed..

Women praying in congregation with men

If there are three of us - two males and one female - and time for prayer comes how should we form the line for prayer? Should the female be with one male in the same line or should the female pray behind the men alone? I have heard that no one should pray alone in a line, and that the person who does so should repeat that prayer... More

Using styrofoam plates in the Masjid

Islam prohibits wasting, so is using Styrofoam plates in the Masjid a good idea? The way I see it: 1) It is waste of the Masjid money 2) It is waste of trees, as Islam encourages us to preserve Allah's environment. 3 The disposal plates stay in the trash inside the Masjid, and that causes bad odor. I see that as not keeping the house of Allah clean.. More
