The Ruling on Speaking while the Quraan is being Recited from a tape/CD/recorder
Question:
What is the legislative ruling for talking during the recitation of the Qur’an in general gatherings, like if the Qur’an is recited from a tape and a group of people are talking, what is the ruling on this action?
Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih Al-‘Uthaymeen:
Allah the Most High states, {So when the Qur’an is recited, then listen to it and give it due attention so that you may receive mercy}. [Soorah Al-‘Araaf: 204]
Thus, if we have a recorder playing the sound of a reciter (while we are talking); either we turn off the recorder or we listen to him. However. remaining in our chatter and talking as if we only hear the sounds of humans, then this is contrary to having manners with the Quran.
So here I say, that either we turn off the…

AQEEDAH OF IMAM SHAFIThe Final Revelation

“القول في السنة التي ان عليها والقول في السنة التي أنا عليها ورأيت عليها الذين رأيتهم مثل سفيان ومالك وغيرهما :
الإقرار بشهادة ألا إله إلا الله وأن محمداً رسول الله ، وأن الله عرشه في سمائه يقرب من خلقه كيف يشاء وينزل من السماء كيف يشاء ، وأن الإيمان قول وعمل يزيد بالطاعة وينقص بالمعصية ، وأن القرآن كلام الله غير مخلوق ، وأنه لا خلود في النار للمؤمنين العصاة وإن ارتكبوا الكبائر..”

Seekers of Knowledge

Q) How can a woman pray Taraweeh in her house?

Why did ‘Uthmaan burn the books? Did He make his own copy of the Qur’aan?

Seekers of Knowledge

CPosted April 20, 2009 by DhanNoon in Qur’aan and Debates

The Qur’aan was revealed in 7 Ahruf (texts).

Islam began to spread to the non-Arabs. Uthman (رضي الله عنه) burned all 6 dialects except the first revealed one to the Quraish from fear that the new Muslims from amongst the non-Arabs will get confused and think that it’s a different book altogether while in reality it’s the same with different dialects of the Arabs. For one who understands al lugha al ‘arabiyya, he knows that this is not a difference anyone would worry about.

Preservation of the Qur’an

When ‘Uthmaan, the third Caliph, compiled the Qur’aan…

Don’t Be Afraid to Be a Difficult Patient

One of my favorite Seinfeld episodes is the one where Elaine snoops inside her medical chart and reads “patient is difficult.” The doctor takes a look at her rash and says, “Well, this doesn’t look serious,” and writes something in the chart. “What are you writing?” she asks. He sneers and walks out the door.…
