Ramaḍān and Fasting
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī addresses the ruling on using an asthma inhaler while fasting. He explains that since the inhaler does not contain food or drink, it is unclear whether it invalidates the fast, and further clarification is required regarding its contents and effect.
Ramaḍān and Fasting
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī explains that a fasting woman may taste food with the tip of her tongue while cooking to check its flavour, provided she does not swallow anything. He clarifies that this does not break the fast, as long as nothing is ingested.
Khawārij and Extremism
Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥmān Muhiyadīn condemns the debate with a Khārijī supporter who declares Makkah to be a land of disbelief. He warns that both parties are ignorant and harmful to Islam, emphasising that speaking without knowledge and engaging with extremists only damages the religion.
Ramaḍān and Fasting
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī explains the expiation for a man who has intercourse with his wife during the daytime in Ramaḍān. Based on authentic ḥadīths, the prescribed expiation is to free a slave, or if not possible, to fast two consecutive months, and if unable, to feed sixty poor people.
Ramaḍān and Fasting
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī explains the ruling on kissing and fondling one’s wife while fasting. He highlights the example of the Prophet ﷺ, who kissed his wives during Ramaḍān, and states that it is permissible unless one fears it will lead to intercourse, in which case it must be avoided.
Ramaḍān and Fasting
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī clarifies the ruling on experiencing a wet dream while fasting in Ramaḍān. He explains that there is no expiation required, and the person should perform ghusl (major ablution) and continue fasting, even if it occurs after Fajr or during the day.
Prayer
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī explains the correct practice of Tarāwīḥ, advising that the prayer should be delayed to the last part of the night and performed in 11 or 13 rakaʿāt. He recommends following the Sunnah rather than praying 20 rakaʿāt, and encourages praying at home if possible.
Divine Decree
Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān explains the virtues and timing of Laylat al-Qadr. He emphasises that it is most likely to fall in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramaḍān, with the 27th night being the most probable, and highlights the immense reward for standing in prayer with faith and hope.
Prayer
Shaykh Muḥammad Nāṣir al-Dīn al-Albānī explains that dividing Tarāwīḥ prayer into two sessions during the last ten nights of Ramaḍān is an innovation. He advises performing Tarāwīḥ early after ʿIshāʾ, following the practice of ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb, and avoiding the newly established division.
Innovation and Innovators
Shaykh Aḥmad al-Najmī explains the correct principles of boycotting ahl al-bidʿah. He emphasises that boycotting is permissible only when it brings benefit and may lead the innovator to repent. If it only increases stubbornness, Muslims should avoid them without showing kindness, while maintaining moderation and balance.
Prayer
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī confirms that it is permissible for a man to pray Tarāwīḥ at home with his family. He emphasises that performing these prayers in the home is acceptable and carries no harm.
Repentance, Patience and Steadfastness
Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Hādī al-Madkhalī calls for patience and steadfastness for the people of Dammaj amid trials. He rejects derogatory labels, emphasises reliance upon Allah’s ﷻ decree, and affirms that those who remain firm in the Sunnah are not harmed by the slander of others.
