  • Signs of the Hour are not necessarily evil things

    Shaikh, I have read the following in fatwa no. 82413: Imam Ahmad narrated that the Prophet said, "Shortly before the Last Hour, people will greet only known persons, trade will be well spread till the woman helps her husband in trading, kin relations will be cut off, false witness will prevail, hiding the truth, and the spread of using the pen." I.. More

  • Allah changing His image on the Day of Resurrection

    I have read this somewhere '...then Al-Jabbar will come to them in an image different than the image in which they saw Him the first time...' (Al-Bukhaari 7440, Muslim 183). Does this hadith mean that Allah, The Exalted, is capable of changing his image? .. More

  • The term 'Khulood' denotes a long stay

    Assalaamu alaykum: https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/179517 In this fatwa, you said that Khulood means a very long time, but not eternity. Does that mean that the words Khaalidand Khaalideena in the Quran do not mean forever? So what about the translations that say that it means "forever", such as 5:119? .. More

  • How reckoning will take place on Day of Judgment

    Assalaamu alaykum. I have heard that we will be asked to account for the blessings we are given. What is meant by that? How will it be done? If Allah asks every muslim about His blessings, it will take a long long time. And the Prophet, sallallahu ʻalayhi wa sallam,used to supplicate: "O Allah, grant me an easy reckoning." What is meant by this?.. More

  • Saying ‘Allah did this’ to justify all actions

    Assalaamu alaykum. I was told by a caller to Allah and the assistant of a Shaykh that one should not always say, "Allah did this." May I ask why one should not say this? I do not see anything wrong regarding that when something occurred with an individual or one's self. Is there something wrong with saying that, "Allah decreed that I should have this,".. More

  • Whether Prophets or Ummah of Muhammad enter Paradise first

    I heard from my childhood that we, the Ummah (community) of Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, will enter Paradise first and that the other Ummahs of the rest of the Prophets, peace be upon them, will enter next. The question is: will the other Prophets also enter Paradise after the Ummah of Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam? As we know,.. More

  • All malice removed from hearts of people of Paradise

    Assalaamu alaykum. Some say that there is a contradiction because 7:43 says that we will not have malice while 83:34 says that we will. May Allaah reward you. .. More

  • How retribution among people is exacted in the Hereafter is matter of Unseen

    Assalaamu alaykum. I have a question about the Scale on the Day of Judgement. I have heard that the good deeds of the non-Muslims will be scattered to dust. If a non-Muslim owes a Muslim good deeds, does this mean that they cannot transfer good deeds to them? And if a Muslim owes a non-Muslim good deeds, will these good deeds turn into dust after being..

  • No hadeeth mentions the parents of the Antichrist

    I have read two different hadiths that depict something different. Likewise, in one of the hadiths, Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam,said that the Antichrist was born in a Jewish Family, and in another hadith, he said that he was born into the Khawaarij (Kharijites). How do you explain this; will he be from the Jews or from Khawaarij? .. More

  • Gog and Magog are two tribes, not two men

    You said in fatwa 22215 that Ya’jooj and Ma’jooj (Gog and Magog) are two tribes who descend from Adam, peace be upon him. They are like other humans; they eat, drink, marry, reproduce, and die". How can this be possible? If they are like any other humans, then they must have died by now, as they have been living for centuries, and yet they are still.. More

  • Dajjaal will not ascend Mount Uhud

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu Shaykh. The Dajjaal (Antichrist) will not be able to enter Makkah and Madeenah. My question is about the boundaries of Makkah and Madeenah. Are they the boundaries that were present at the time of Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam? I actually heard this hadith: The Messenger of Allaah,.. More

  • Women in Paradise will see Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam

    Assalaamu alaykum. Will women be able to see their friends and the female believers of this world, like ‘A’ishah etc., and will women be able to see the Prophet, sallallahu ʻalayhi wa sallam. .. More

  • Trial of Dajjaal directed to all people on earth

    Assalaamu alaykum. I want to ask whether it is true that the Dajjaal (Antichrist) is a trial for the Muslims only while Gog and Magog, on the other hand, do not have any purpose such as to reclaim the holy land, to help the Jews prevail etc., while Gog and Magog are always referred to in regards to the destruction. Is it true to say that Gog and Magog.. More

  • Woman will be married to husband of this world in Paradise

    Assalaamu alaykum. It is said that one cannot imagine life in heaven and that it is more than expectation and that one will get everything there. Now, I can imagine that my class mate, who promised to marry me but then left me and married another man without telling me reasonwill be my wife in heaven; can I imagine that? It is said that Prophet Muhammad,.. More

  • Lineage of Dajjaal unknown

    There is a famous story that a Companion of Prophet Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,named Tameem Ad-Daari, may Allah be pleased with him,met the Dajjaal (the Antichrist) during his journey to an unknown island in the east where he interacted with him and they spoke and a long interaction took placed between them. So the Dajjaal was answering.. More
