The Creed of Compassion-Islamic Teachings & Answering Doctrinal Misconceptions

Issue No.1095- If an act, in Precautionary prayer, is omitted or added inadvertently, it will not be necessary to perform sajdah al-sahw for it.

Issue No.299- If any other part of the body other than the parts of wuḍū is najis, the wuḍū will be correct. However, if the outlet of urine or faeces is najis, the recommended precaution is that one should make them ṭāhir first, and then perform wuḍū.

Issue No.469- If a woman with a timely fixed period sees blood one or two days earlier or later than the commencement of her menstrual period, such that it is said that her period has started earlier or later, should act according to the rulings for ḥā’iḍ (menstruating) women, even if the blood does not have the signs of menses.

Issue No.419- If a woman who is fasting becomes mustaḥāḍah after she has performed her ẓuhr and ‘aṣr prayers, no ghusl is required for the fast of that day.

Issue No.479- If a woman who has a fixed menstrual period (irrespective of whether it is a regular period or it is fixed only in time or in number) sees blood in two consecutive months contrary to her usual period, her menstrual period gets changed according to her period during the two months.

Issue No. 1610- If a date palm or vine bears fruit twice in a year, and when combined they reach the taxable limit, zakāt should be paid on it, as an obligatory precaution.

Issue No. 1184- If a traveller knows that he should offer qaṣr prayer but does not know some of the details [e.g., he does not know that this rule is for the journeys of eight farsakhs] and offers complete prayer, the obligatory precaution is to repeat the prayer in a qaṣr form.

Issue No.149- If a part of one's body which has sweat on it becomes najis, all those parts to which the sweat reaches will become najis.

Issue No.692- If, while offering prayer, a problem arises and the ruling regarding which is not known, one is allowed to act on either one of the two probabilities with the intention of the hope of being accepted by Allah. However, after offering the prayer, he should enquire about the problem so that if the prayer is void, he offers it again (the recommended precaution though, is that he should take the side which is more likely to be correct).

Issue No.243- When two just persons or even one says that something has become ṭāhir, it should be accepted. The same ruling is applied when a person who has the najis object in his possession says so, and also when one knows that a Muslim has rinsed a najis object, but does not know whether correctly or not.

Issue No. 1621- Another condition is that one should possess the taxable limit of gold or silver for a whole year; if he enters the twelfth month, he should, as an obligatory precaution, pay its zakāt. In case, he sells it before the end of the eleventh month or if it falls below the taxable limit, or if it is not at his disposal, it is not obligatory for him to pay zakāt. The same goes if he exchanges it with something else or if he melts it. However, if he changes some gold and silver coins with other gold and silver coins, he should, as an obligatory precaution, pay its zakāt.

Issue No.666- If one performs tayammum instead of ghusl and later, an act which invalidates wuḍū occurs, he should only perform wuḍū for the subsequent prayers, and if he cannot do so, he should perform tayammum in lieu of wuḍū.
