Subject: questions Author: sana [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:01:46 09/03/02 Tue Author Host/IP: host62-7-3-191.in-addr.btopenworld.com/62.7.3.191 salam,i have a couple of questions i would like to inquire about. i live in the uk and i would like to know if we can eat things with geletine in them because somebody told me that you can eat geletine but if it says in brackets next to it that it is from a pig, only then u cannot eat it. is this correct because i have never seen food with geletine and in brackets something written next to it? also, i was wondering, if we know we will not be able to read prayers in the day, and we read them before, what do we say in the starting of the prayers? that we are reading in the intention of the whole days missed prayers or what? thank u very much khudahafis [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: questions Author: moustafa morsy [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 22:46:58 09/03/02 Tue Author Host/IP: mt.24.171.69.29.charter-stl.com/24.171.69.29 Regarding to the meat,it is not allowed to eat any kind of meat UNLESS you are sure that this meat is HALAL (lawful),So ,you can not eat a geletine or any thing contains it unless you are sure that this geletine is from Halal meat or animal,the one who told you to eat it, is absolutily wrong and should fear Allah and not to give fatwa without knowledge. REGARDING to the prayer: Allah (S W T ) says in surat AL NISSA,A:[When you have finished As-Salât (the prayer - congregational), remember Allâh standing, sitting down, and lying down on your sides, but when you are free from danger, perform As-Salât (Iqâmatas Salât). Verily, the prayer is enjoined on the believers at fixed hours.The Muslim should maintain the habit of praying regularly on time, for Allaah praises the believers who, as He says (interpretation of the meaning): “And those who guard their Salaah (prayers) well” [al-Ma’aarij 70:34] If a person has an excuse and he missed a prayer, then he has to make it up, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps and misses it, the expiation for this sin is to pray it when he remembers it.” (Narrated by Muslim, al-Masaajid wa Mawaadi’ al-Salaah, 1103) The work is NOT excuse to miss the prayer because Allah ordered us to pray even while we are fighting in war. The only excuse to leave the prayer is: If one was sleeping or he forgot the prayer ,so he/she ,should do as the Prophet (P B UP HIM) said:Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps and misses it, then let him pray it when he remembers it. The one who did not pray intentially till the time of the prayer passed ,can not make up this prayer according to the most correct opinion of the ulamaa,he or she should repent to Allah and do extra prayer.
