Reciting Masnoon Du’as During Menses

Shaykh Shafiq JakhuraRead

It has come to my knowledge that some people observe certain nawafil Salah by reciting any specific surah a certain number of times (that is more than once) in each raka’ah after reading Surah Fatiha. Sometimes they make an extra sajdah after reading tashahhud and durood and there, they ask for any specific du’a they are in need for. They even call this Salah as Hajat. However I have not come across any kind of this Salah in the Hadith.

I follow Imam Abu Hanifa. When I pray fard salah behind any imam I do not recite surah Fatiha, but my friends who follow other imams do. They told me one hadith of Prophet Muhammed said “One who does not recite surah Fatiha his salah is incomplete”. So please tell me why we don’t recite surah Fatiha.

Praying in Short Sleeves

Shaykh Shafiq JakhuraRead

I was diagnosed with Chron’s Disease a year ago, and I have tried all types of medicines which have only made my condition a lot worse. Now I am at a point where I do not use medicines at all, and pray my pain will be relieved. I am the oldest child and I am feeling like a burden to my parents. I researched online for remedies and found that marijuana can be used as a remedy for the symptoms of Chron’s disease. I am very helpless because I am not sure if it would be permitted in Islam to use marijuana if it’s for medicinal purposes. I am not a pot head. I don’t smoke. I am a practicing Muslim and I try my hardest to be as good as I can. Please help me find a fatwa for this predicament. My condition is getting worse by the day.

What is the ruling on moustache in Islam? Should the moustache be completely removed or rather only shortened? One alim in our area has long moustache in the two corners in upper lip and he said he is following the Sunnah of Umar bin Khattab (Radhi Allahu Anhu) who used to pull his moustaches hair near the lips when he was in deep thought of something and from this it is established that Umar (Radhi Allahu Anhu) had hair on both sides of the lips.
