Calling upon Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)
Some of the people in my class often say, "Ya Muhammad", when they want to stand up or need help to do something. They say it is part of tawassul and Sunnah of Rasulullah (the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him) to ask his help and that only Wahhabis oppose this practice. What does Hanafi School teach about saying "Ya Muhammad", instead of "Ya Allah"? Is it true that this is tawassul or is part of Sunnah? Shukran (Thank you)!
How People Could Call Rulers to Account
As-salamu `alaykum. Dear Sheikh; there is a question that always irks me about Islam, and I do not find an answer to it, which is: Islam, the great religion, has organized people’s affairs and preserved for each one of them his/her full due rights. Hence, my pride being a Muslim, who believes in Allah the One and the Only alone. However, what embitters my life is why the ruler has the right to take my money and break my back, while I do not have the right to challenge him??!! I do not say to revolt against him. I know I have the right to suit him, as it happened at the time of Caliph Omar ibn Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) but, what is the mechanism? Islam does not put a mechanism so as to be able to suit the ruler if he harms me, and I think that our history, unfortunately, past and present, is full of tyranny and injustice of the rulers, without a controller or an inspector!! The modern western civilization has reserved for the cleaning worker the right to suit the Supreme Chief of the Armed Forces, while I cannot suit the least governor in my country. You may say that justice is the essence of Islam, but the rulers do not apply it, therefore they violate the pledge of allegiance in my country, and hence they do not have the right to rule over us after that. I am sorry, dear Sheikh, for elaboration, but crying goes with the pitch of pain! Please, kindly recommend me to the related books that you would advise me for further reading in this subject. May Allah bless you and reward you with goodness.
Never Prayed: How to Be Back to Islam?
Hello dear Counselor. I am a 21 born Shiite Muslim. I never prayed and I want to start praying and being a Muslim in Islam. I don't know who to turn to. My father and mother don't know how. I want to ask you. I want to learn how to pray and ask for forgiveness and learn the Qur'an and I want you to tell me about some books I should read. Thank you.
