Is it prescribed to send blessings upon the angels?

Is it prescribed to send blessings upon the angels?
Is it permissible to send blessings upon the angels because of their virtue and high status?.

 

Praise be to Allaah.

It is prescribed to send blessings upon the angels by saying
“ ‘Alayhim al-salaatu wa’l- salaam (upon them be blessings and peace)” and “
‘alayhim al-salaam (upon them be peace)”, because they are honourable,
devoted worshippers and one of the creations of Allaah whom Allaah, may He
be glorified and exalted, favoured over others as He says: 

“They [whom they call children of Allaah i.e. the angels,
‘Eesa (Jesus) __ son of Maryam (Mary), ‘Uzayr (Ezra)], are but honoured
slaves”

[al-Anbiya’ 21:26] 

“But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of
mankind) to watch you,

11. Kiraaman (Honourable) Kaatibeen —writing down (your
deeds)”

[al-Infitaar 82:10,11] 

“In the hands of scribes (angels).

16. Honourable and obedient”

[‘Abasa 80:15, 16] 

They have a particular status, virtue and honour, so it is
prescribed to send blessings upon them, and there is no reason not to do so,
rather it is prescribed. End quote.

Should he send blessings on the angels in the tashahhud?

Should he send blessings on the angels in the tashahhud?
Is it permissible to send blessings on the angels in the tashahhud as I send blessings on the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?.

 

Praise be to Allaah.

But in the tashahhud doing that is not prescribed, because
what must be done is to recite only that which was proven from the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), without adding anything to
it. 

Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan was asked: Should blessings be sent
on the angels in the tashahhud as they are sent on the Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? 

He replied: 

No, the blessings that are mentioned in the tashahhud should
be limited only to that which is narrated, but when we say al-salaamu
‘alayna wa ‘ala ‘ibaad-Allaah al-saaliheen (may peace be upon us and
upon all the righteous slaves of Allaah), that includes every righteous
slave in heaven and on earth, which includes the angels.

Ruling on describing nurses as “angels of mercy”

Ruling on describing nurses as “angels of mercy”
We often read about and hear the common people and their writers and poets describing nurses as “angels of mercy.” Is that permissible?

 

Praise be to Allaah. 

It is not permissible to apply this description to nurses,
because the angels are male and are not female. Allaah denounced the
mushrikeen for describing the angels as female. Moreover, the angels
of mercy have their own description which cannot be applied to nurses,
for there are good and bad nurses, so it is not permissible to apply
this description to them. And Allaah knows best.

The number of angels with each person

 

The
number of angels with each person
How
many angels are there with any muslim and what are their functions
concerning him/her?

 

Praise be to Allaah. 

The
honourable angels accompany the children of Adam from the day they are formed
in their mothers’ wombs until the day when their souls are brought forth from
their bodies at the time of death. They also accompany them in their graves
and in the Hereafter.

 - 
Their accompanying
them in this world is as follows:

 1
– They take care of him when he is created

 It
was reported from Anas that the Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Allaah appoints an angel in the
womb, who says, ‘O Lord, a nutfah (mixed drop of male and female sexual discharges)? O
Lord, a ‘alaqah (a clot)? O Lord,
a mudghah (lump of chewed flesh)?’
When Allaah decrees that it is to be created, (the angel) says, ‘O Lord, male
or female? Doomed or blessed? What is his provision? What is his lifespan?’
And that is written in his mother’s womb.”

(Narrated
by al-Bukhaari, 6595; Muslim, 2646. This version was narrated by al-Bukhaari).

 2
– They guard the son of Adam

 Allaah
says (interpretation of the meaning):

“It
is the same (to Him) whether any of you conceals his speech or declares it openly,
whether he be hid by night or goes forth freely by day.

For
him (each person), there are angels in succession, before and behind him. They
guard him by the Command of Allaah”

[al-Ra’d
13:10-11]

 The
commentator on the Qur’aan who had the best understanding of it, Ibn ‘Abbaas,
explained that the mu’aqqibaat
[translated here as “angels in succession”] refers to the angels whom Allaah
has appointed to guard man from in front and from behind. When the decree of
Allaah comes – when He decrees that some accident or calamity etc. should befall
him – the angels withdraw from him.

 Mujaahid
said: There is no person who does not have an angel appointed to protect him
when he is asleep and when he is awake, from the jinn, men and wild beasts.
There is nothing that comes to him but the angels tell it to clear off, except
for that which Allaah grants permission for it to befall him.

 A
man said to ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib: “A group from (the tribe of) Muraad wanted
to kill you.” ‘Ali said, “With every man there are two angels who protect him
from everything that is not decreed; when the decree comes, they withdraw and
do not stand between him and it. A man's decreed lifespan is his protection.”

 The
“angels in succession” mentioned in the aayah from Soorat
al-Ra’d are what is referred to in another aayah (interpretation
of the meaning):

“He
is the Irresistible (Supreme), over His slaves, and He sends guardians (angels
guarding and writing all of one’s good and bad deeds) over you, until when death
approaches one of you, Our messengers (angel of death and his assistants) take
his soul, and they never neglect their duty” [al-An’aam 6:61]

 The guardians
whom Allaah sends protect a person until the appointed time (of death) that
has been decreed for him comes.

 3 – The
angels who write down hasanaat (good deeds) and sayi’aat (bad deeds)

 Every single
person has two angels who write down his deeds, both good and bad, minor and
major. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

 “But
verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you,

Kiraaman
(Honourable) Kaatibeen —writing down (your deeds),

They
know all that you do”

[al-Infitaar
82:10-12]

 “And
indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And
We are nearer to him than his jugular vein (by Our Knowledge).

(Remember)
that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being), one sitting
on the right and one on the left (to note his or her actions

Not
a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher by him ready (to record
it).

[Qaaf
50:16-18]

 The
angel on the right records hasanaat (good deeds) and the angel on the left records
sayi’aat (bad deeds).

 It
was reported from Abu Umaamah that the Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The angel on the left does
not write down anything until six hours have passed after a Muslim does a bad
deed. If he regrets it and asks Allaah for forgiveness, he casts it aside [does
not write it down], otherwise he writes down one (sayi’ah/bad deed).”

(Narrated
by al-Tabaraani in al-Mu’jam
al-Kabeer, 8/158. The hadeeth was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani
in Saheeh
al-Jaami’, 2/212)

 Once
we know this, the number of angels who accompany the son of Adam after he is
born will become clear: four angels.

 Ibn
Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:

 “The
aayah (interpretation of the meaning): ‘For
him (each person), there are angels in succession, before and behind him. They
guard him by the Command of Allaah’ [al-Ra’d
13:10-11] means:
each person has angels who take turns in guarding him by night and day, who
protect him from evil and from accidents, just as other angels take turns in
recording his deeds, good and bad, by night and by day.

 Two
angels, on the right and the left, record his deeds. The one on the right writes
down his hasanaat (good deeds) and the one on his left writes down his sayi’aat
(evil deeds).

 Two
other angels guard him and protect him, one from behind and one from in front.

 So
there are four angels by day and four others by night.”

 (Tafseer
Ibn Katheer, 2/504)

 And
Allaah knows best.

Angels

Angels
Could you give us some information about the angels?

 

Praise be to
Allaah.

Allaah created the angels from light. The
Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) said: “The angels were created from light, the jinn
were created from smokeless fire, and Adam was created from that which
has been described to you.” (narrated by Muslim, 2996) 

The angels are by nature obedient to Allaah: 

“[they, i.e., angels] disobey not,
(from executing) the Commands they receive from Allaah, but do that
which they are commanded

[al-Tahreem 66:6 – interpretation of the meaning] 

They are created in such a way that they do
not eat or drink. Their food is tasbeeh (glorification of Allaah)
and tahleel (saying Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah), as Allaah
tells us concerning them (interpretation of the meaning): 

“They (i.e. the angels) glorify His Praises
night and day, (and) they never slacken (to do so) [al-Anbiyaa’
21:20] 

The angels bear witness to the Oneness of
Allaah, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“Allaah bears witness that Laa ilaaha
illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), and the angels,
and those having knowledge (also give this witness); (He always) maintains
His creation in justice. Laa ilaaha illa Huwa (none has the right to
be worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-Wise”

[Aal ‘Imraan 3:18] 

Allaah has honoured some of the angels  by
choosing them as Messengers, just as He has chosen some of mankind as
Messengers: 

“Allaah chooses Messengers from
angels and from men”

[al-Hajj 22:75 – interpretation of the meaning] 

When Allaah created Adam and He wanted to
honour him, He commanded the angels to prostrate to him: 

“And (remember) when We said to
the angels: ‘Prostrate yourselves before Adam.’ And they prostrated
except Iblees (Satan), he refused and was proud and was one of the disbelievers
(disobedient to Allaah)’”

[al-Baqarah 2:34 – interpretation of the meaning] 

The angels are a mighty creation, and they
perform many tasks, and they are divided into many groups, which no
one knows except Allaah. Some of them carry the Throne: 

“Those (angels) who bear the Throne
(of Allaah) and those around it glorify the praises of their Lord, and
believe in Him, and ask forgiveness for those who believe (in the Oneness
of Allaah)…”[Ghaafir 40:7 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them is the one who brings down the
Revelation to the Messengers. He is Jibreel (peace be upon him), who
brought the Qur’aan down to Muhammad
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): 

“Which the trustworthy Rooh [Jibreel
(Gabriel)] has brought down

Upon your heart (O Muhammad) that you may be (one)
of the warners”

[al-Shu’araa 26:193 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them is Mikaa’eel, who is appointed
in charge of the rain and vegetation, and Israafeel who is appointed
to blow the Trumpet when the Hour begins. And among them are the recording
angels who are appointed to watch over the sons of Adam and their deeds:

 “But verily, over you (are appointed
angels in charge of mankind) to watch you,

Kiraaman (Honourable) Kaatibeen —writing down (your
deeds),

They know all that you do

[al-Infitaar :10-12 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them are those who are entrusted with
the task of writing down all deeds, whether good or evil: 

“(Remember) that the two receivers
(recording angels) receive (each human being), one sitting on the right
and one on the left (to note his or her actions)

Not a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher
by him ready (to record it)

[Qaaf 50:17-18 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them are those who are entrusted with
the task of seizing the souls of the believers:

 “Those whose lives the angels take
while they are in a pious state (i.e. pure from all evil, and worshipping
none but Allaah Alone) saying (to them): Salaamun ‘Alaykum (peace be
on you) enter you Paradise, because of that (the good) which you used
to do (in the world)”

[al-Nahl 16:32 – interpretation of the meaning] 

And among them are those who are entrusted
with the task of seizing the souls of the disbelievers: 

“And if you could see when the angels
take away the souls of those who disbelieve (at death); they smite their
faces and their backs, (saying): ‘Taste the punishment of the blazing
Fire’”

[al-Anfaal 8:50 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them are the gatekeepers of Paradise
and the servants of the people of Paradise: 

“And angels shall enter unto them
from every gate (saying):

Salaamun ‘Alaykum (peace be upon you) for you persevered
in patience! Excellent indeed is the final home!”

[al-Ra’d 13:23-24 – interpretation of the meaning] 

And among them are the gatekeepers of Hell: 

“O you who believe! Ward off yourselves
and your families against a Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones,
over which are (appointed) angels stern (and) severe”

[al-Tahreem 66:6 – interpretation of the meaning] 

Among them are some who strive in jihaad with
the believers: 

“(Remember) when your Lord revealed
to the angels, ‘Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed.
I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so
strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes’”

[al-Anfaal 8:12 – interpretation of the meaning] 

On Laylat al-Qadr in the month of Ramadaan,
the angels come down to witness goodness with the Muslims, as Allaah
says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree)
is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allaah in that night
is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e. 83 years and
4 months).

Therein descend the angels and the Rooh [Jibreel (Gabriel)]
by Allaah’s Permission with all Decrees”

[al-Qadr 97:3-4] 

The angels do not enter a house in which
there is a statue, picture (image) or a dog. The Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The angels do not
enter a house in which there is a dog or an image.” (Narrated by Muslim,
2106). 

Belief in the angels is one of the pillars
of faith, and whoever denies it is a kaafir: 

“and whosoever disbelieves in Allaah,
His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last Day, then indeed
he has strayed far away[al-Nisaa’ 4:136 – interpretation of the meaning]

Is Iblees a jinn or an angel?

Is
Iblees a jinn or an angel?
I was just wondering if Iblis was actually a jinn or an angel. This particular issue recently sparked my curiosity when it was presented to me by a person I know.
If he is an angel, then how is it he disobeyed Allah, when Angels have no will of their own and follow only Allah's command. If he is really a jinn, then it would better explain his disobedience as then he actually had the choice to obey or disobey Allah. I would appreciate a response, even if it is a brief one.

 

Praise be to Allaah. 

Ibless – may Allaah curse him – is one of the jinn.
He was not an angel for a single day, not even for an instant. The angels
were created noble; they never disobey Allaah when He commands them to do
something and they do what they are commanded. This is clearly stated in
the Qur’aanic texts which indicate that Iblees is one of the jinn and
not one of the angels. These texts include the following:

 1.                    
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And
(remember) when We said to the angels: “Prostrate yourselves unto
Adam.” So they prostrated themselves except Iblees (Satan). He was one
of the jinn; he disobeyed the Command of his Lord. Will you then take him
(Iblees) and his offspring as protectors and helpers rather than Me while
they are enemies to you? What an evil is the exchange for the Zaalimoon
(polytheists, and wrongdoers, etc).” [al-Kahf 18:50]

 2.                    
Allaah stated that He
created the jinn from fire, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And
the jinn, We created aforetime from the smokeless flame of fire”
[al-Hijr 15:27]

“And
the jinn He created from a smokeless flame of fire” [al-Rahmaan 55:15]

And
it was narrated in a saheeh hadeeth that ‘Aa’ishah said: the Messenger
of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The
angels were created from light, the jinn were created from smokeless fire
and Adam was created from that which has been described to you.”
(Narrated by Muslim in his Saheeh, no. 2996; also narrated by Ahmad, no.
24668; by al-Bayhaqi in al-Sunan
al-Kubra, no. 18207 and by Ibn Hibbaan, no. 6155).

One of the
attributes of the angels is that they were created from light, and the
jinn were created from fire. It was mentioned in the Qur’aan that Iblees
– may Allaah curse him – was created from fire. This is what Iblees
himself said when Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, asked him the
reason for his refusal to prostrate to Adam when Allaah commanded him to
do so. He – may Allaah curse him – said:


‘I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You
created from clay’” [al-A’raaf 7:12; Saad 38:76 – interpretation
of the meaning]. This
indicates that he was one of the jinn.

 3.                    
Allaah has described
the angels in His Book, where He says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O
you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against a Fire
(Hell) whose fuel is men and stones, over which are (appointed) angels
stern (and) severe, who disobey not, (from executing) the Commands they
receive from Allâh, but do that which they are commanded” [al-Tahreem
66:6]

“And
they say: ‘The Most Gracious (Allaah) has begotten a son (or
children).’ Glory to Him! They [whom they call children of Allaah i.e.
the angels, ‘Eesaa (Jesus)

son of Maryam (Mary), ‘Uzair
(Ezra)], are but honoured slaves. They speak not until He has spoken, and
they act on His Command” [al-Anbiyaa’ 21:26-27]

“And to
Allaah prostrate all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth,
of the moving (living) creatures and the angels, and they are not proud
[i.e. they worship their Lord (Allâh) with humility]. They fear their
Lord above them, and they do what they are commanded” [al-Nahl 16:49-50]

So
it is not possbile for the angels to disobey their Lord, because they are
protected from sin and they are naturally inclined to obey Allaah.

4.                    
The fact that Iblees
is not one of the angels means that he is not compelled to obey Allaah. He
has freedom of will just as we humans do. Allaah says (interpretation of
the meaning);

 “Verily,
We showed him the way, whether he be grateful or ungrateful” [al-Insaan
76:3]

  There
are also Muslims and kaafirs among the jinn. It says in Soorat
al-Jinn (interpretation of the meaning):

 “Say
(O Muhammad): ‘It has been revealed to me that a group (from three to
ten in number) of jinn listened (to this Qur’aan). They said: ‘Verily,
we have heard a wonderful Recitation (this Qur’aan)! It guides to the
Right Path, and we have believed therein, and we shall never join (in
worship) anything with our Lord (Allaah).’” [al-Jinn 72;1-2]

 In
the same soorah, it states that the jinn said:

 “‘And
indeed when we heard the Guidance (this Qur’aan), we believed therein
(Islamic Monotheism), and whosoever believes in his Lord shall have no
fear, either of a decrease in the reward of his good deeds or an increase
in the punishment for his sins.  And
of us some are Muslims (who have submitted to Allaah, after listening to
this Qur’aan), and of us some are Al‑Qaasitoon (disbelievers

those who have deviated from the Right
Path)’…” [al-Jinn 72:13-14]

Ibn Katheer
(may Allaah have mercy on him) said in his Tafseer:

 Al-Hasan
al-Basri said: Iblees was not one of the angels, not even for a single
moment. He is the father of the jinn, just as Adam (peace be upon him) is
the father of mankind. This was narrated by al-Tabari with a saheeh
isnaad (part 3/89).

Some of the
scholars said that Iblees was one of the angels, that he was the peacock
of the angels, that he was the one among the angels who strove the hardest
in worship… and other reports, most of which come from the Israa’eeliyyaat
(stories and reports from Jewish sources), and some of which contradict
the clear texts of the Qur’aan.

Ibn Katheer
said, explaining this:

A lot of
these reports were transmitted from the Salaf,
and most of them come from the Israa’eeliyyaat,
which may be been transmitted in order to be examined [i.e., as opposed to
being accepted as is]. Allaah knows best about the veracity or otherwise
of many of them. Some of them are definitely to be rejected, because they
go against the truth which we hold in our hands. In the Qur’aan we have
sufficient so that we have no need of previous reports, because hardly any
of them are free of distortions, with things added or taken away. Many
things have been fabricated in them, for they did not have people who had
memorized things precisely by heart (huffaaz) who could eliminate the
distortions created by extremists and fabricators, unlike this ummah which
has its imaams, scholars, masters, pious and righteous people, brilliant
critics and men of excellent memory who recorded the hadeeths and
classified them, stating whether they were saheeh (sound), hasan (good),
da’eef (weak), mawdoo’ (fabricated), matrook (to be ignored). They
identified the fabricators and liars, and those about whom nothing was
known, and other kinds of men (i.e., narrators). All of this afforded
protection to the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him), the Seal of the Messengers and the Leader of Mankind, so that
nothing would be attributed to him falsely and nothing would be
transmitted from him that he did not say or do. May Allaah be pleased with
them and make them pleased [by rewarding them], and make the Paradise of
al-Firdaws their eternal abode. (Tafseer
al-Qur’aan il-‘Azeem, 3/90).

And Allaah
knows best.

The reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things

The reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things
What is the reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things?.

 

Praise be to Allaah.

We say concerning such matters: we may or may not understand
the wisdom behind it, because we do not know the wisdom behind many things,
as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And
they ask you (O Muhammad

صلى الله عليه وسلم)
concerning the Rooh (the spirit). Say: ‘The Rooh (the spirit) is one of the
things, the knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you
(mankind) have been given only a little’”

[al-Isra’ 17:85]. 

With regard to these creatures, if someone were to ask us:
what is the reason behind Allaah making the camel in this manner, and making
the horse in this manner, and making the donkey in this manner, and making
the human in this manner? and so on, if he were to ask us about the reason
or wisdom behind these things, we would not know. If we were to be asked:
what is the reason why Allaah has made Zuhr prayer four rak’ahs, and ‘Asr
prayer four, and Maghrib three, and ‘Isha’ four, and so on? We would not be
able to know the wisdom behind that. 

Thus we know that with regard many matters, both in the
universe and in terms of sharee’ah, the wisdom behind them is hidden from
us. As that is the case, we say: if we manage to understand the wisdom
behind some things in creation or in sharee’ah, if Allaah blesses us by
enabling us to understand it, that is additional virtue, goodness and
knowledge. If we do not understand that, that is not going to harm us in any
way. 

Now let us go back to the question, which is what is the
reason why Allaah has appointed honourable scribes to record what we do? 

The wisdom behind that is to show that Allaah has organised
and measured all things in the most perfect manner, to such an extent that
He has appointed honourable scribes to record the actions and words of the
sons of Adam; they are enjoined to watch over them and write down all that
they do, even though He knows what they are going to do before they do it.
But this is a manifestation of the perfection of Allaah's care for man and
His complete protection, and it shows that this universe is organised in the best possible manner, and Allaah is All Knowing, Most Wise. And Allaah knows best. End quote.

The reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things

 

The reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things
What is the reason for the existence of the honourable scribes even though Allaah knows all things?.

Praise be to Allaah.

We say concerning such matters: we may or may not understand the wisdom behind it, because we do not know the wisdom behind many things, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And they ask you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) concerning the Rooh (the spirit). Say: ‘The Rooh (the spirit) is one of the things, the knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little’”

[al-Isra’ 17:85].

The soul’s connection to the body

The soul’s
connection to the body
Is there anything in Islam to explain
the soul’s connection to the body?

 

Praise be to Allaah.

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:

The soul (al-rooh) is connected to the body in five different ways, to
which different rules apply.

Its connection to the body as a foetus in his mother’s womb.

Its connection to the body after a person is born.

Its connection to the body when a person is asleep, when the soul is
connected in one way and separated from it in another way.

Its connection to the body in al-Barzakh (the period between a person's
death and the Day of Resurrection), when it has departed from the body and separated from
it, but is not separated completely in such a way that there is no connection at all. We
have mentioned at the beginning of this reply that there are ahaadeeth and reports which
indicate that the soul is returned to the body when somebody sends the greeting of salaam
to a deceased person. This returning is of a special nature which does not mean that the
life is restored to the body before the Day of Resurrection.

Its connection to the body on the Day when bodies will be resurrected.
This is the most perfect type of connection to the body, and has no comparison to the
previous types, because after that the body will never die, sleep or have anything wrong
with it.

When a person is asleep, his soul is in his body and he is alive,
although his being alive is not the same as that of a person who is awake, for sleep is
comparable to death. Similarly, when a dead person's soul is returned to his body (when
the greeting is sent upon him), he is in a state between one who is alive and one who is
dead, whose soul is not restored to his body. This is like the case of a sleeping person
who is in a state between life and death. We hope that this will dispel a lot of your
confusion.

Ruling on saying “I am a mu’min (believer) in sha Allaah.”

Ruling on saying
“I am a mu’min (believer) in sha Allaah.”
Can a moslem say: I am a momen In shaa
Allah

 

Praise be to Allaah.

The issue of whether one can add the condition of saying “in sha
Allaah” when speaking about matters of faith is one concerning which there has been
lengthy and detailed debate among the scholars. The correct attitude in this case is to
ask what is meant by the word “mu’min” (believer). If the speaker is
referring to the essence of faith, i.e., Islam, without which one would be a kaafir, then
in this case it is not correct to say “in sha Allaah.” This would imply some
doubt about Islam, which is not permitted; the Muslim should be definite in his faith, and
should say “I am a mu’min,” without adding “in sha Allaah.”
However, if what is meant is the perfection of faith and the high rank which is above the
level of just being a Muslim, then one should say “in sha Allaah,” because
otherwise one would be praising oneself, which is forbidden as Allaah says (interpretation
of the meaning): “Therefore ascribe not purity to yourselves” [al-Najm 53:32]

If a person wants to say something straightforward to express his
belief, then he should say “I am a Muslim.” In this case there is no need to add
“in sha Allaah.” And Allaah knows best.

Are there any weak points in Islam that enable the kaafirs to attack it?

Are there any weak points in Islam that enable the kaafirs to attack it?
As you know Muslims are facing many challenges, pressures and criticisms from non-Muslims in the world. In light of this atmosphere, should we Muslim not be the most open and honest about our shortcomings and try to tackle them as opposed to being overly defensive and seeming to make excuses or cover our faults? The reason for this question is that if we seem to deny or gloss over obvious shortcomings it will not help us to overcome them. Perhaps some Muslims feel that to deal with our problems openly will assist the kufaar in their attacks on Islam. Please advise.

 

Praise be to Allaah.
 

 

Firstly: 

There are no weak points in Islam – praise be
to Allaah – that the Muslim needs to worry about. Islam is the perfect religion of Allaah, and Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“And the Word of your Lord has been
fulfilled in truth and in justice”

[al-An’aam 6:115] 

One of the scholars said that this means, it tells the truth in its reports and is just in its
rulings. 

Allaah has blessed us by completing His
religion and perfecting the blessing, as He says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“This day, I have perfected your religion
for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion”

[al-Maa'idah 5:3] 

If an Islamic ruling seems to a person to be
a weak point, he should realize that the fault lies in his way of thinking, because some of the rulings of sharee’ah that are absolutely wise and
just may appear otherwise to some people, either because of their whims and desires, or because it goes against what people are used to in their
lives, that goes against sharee’ah. For example, some think that a man’s being the protector and maintainer of women is a weak point in Islam,
because they are used to something which is contrary to that and which also goes against the fitrah (natural inclination of man).  

Secondly: 

An important matter which should be pointed
out here is that it is not permissible for anyone to speak about the rulings of Islam or the tafseer of Qur’aan or the meanings of hadeeth, rather
that should be referred to the scholars who are well-versed in knowledge. 

What happens is that a question is put to an
ordinary Muslim, and he cannot find an answer for it or he gives a wrong answer, or it leaves some doubt in his heart that he cannot rid himself
of.  

“if only they had referred it to the
Messenger or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have understood it from them (directly). Had it not been
for the Grace and Mercy of Allaah upon you, you would have followed Shaytaan (Satan), save a few of you”

[al-Nisa’ 4:83 – interpretation of the
meaning] 

Hence we say that Allaah has protected the religion for us through the scholars and has enabled
them to understand it correctly so as to refute hostile ideas and explain its wisdom to people. That is not for the ordinary people, rather it is
only for the elite, namely the scholars. 

Some of scholars used to challenge people to
bring them a verse that contradicts another verse or a hadeeth, or a hadeeth that contradicts another hadeeth or a verse of Qur’aan, and they
would explain to them anything that appeared to be a contradiction, and they used to openly challenge everyone on this matter. 

Al-Daaraqutni – who was one of the imams of
hadeeth – stood in Baghdad as a khateeb and said: “O people of Baghdad! No one can tell lies against the Messenger of Allaah (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) whilst I am alive.” These words indicate the depth of their knowledge and understanding of Islam, which was so
great that the people of falsehood could not attack Islam or introduce into it things that were not part of it. 

Hence our advice to this questioner and other
Muslims, especially those who mix with kuffaar because of their work or because they live in their countries, is to strive to seek knowledge and
to learn the correct rulings of Islam that are derived from the Qur’aan and Sunnah, whilst paying attention to learning the reasons behind these
rulings, so that they will have knowledge with which to refute the specious arguments of those who seek to attack Islam, and this will enable them
to call people to Allaah with proper insight and understanding. 

And Allaah knows best.
