1-You said that until the photo isnt on a paper it isnt a picture so then can we take snaps from a digital cam just saving them in our computer.2-What is the Kufara for fullfilling the Qadaa salat of Fajr prayer.3-Shero Shairi poetry good one about islam and your country is it allowed i heard that many sahabis also did it.4-What do u mean by a mazoor when you talk about the urine drops coming out after the wudhu.5-Some of the Sufis in the subcontinent attracted hindus through music by singing Kalimas in the Qawalis and the Hindus became right muslims.Would they be rewarded on this or not?
1. While some ulama are of the opinion that these are not classified as
pictures, the vast Majority of Ulama hold the view that they are in fact
pictures and are thus prohibited. This is the more cautious view to adopt.
2. If you missed a Fajr Salah, then you should make qadha of it, by reading
it. There is no other kafara. Yes, you should make istighfaar (seek
forgiveness) from Allah and make a firm determination to be punctual on
salah in the future.
3. Singing poetry is permissible with the following conditions:
A. The singer musn’t be a professional singer, faasiq, woman or beardless
youth.
B.The contents mustn’t be against Shariah.
C.Musical instruments cannot be used. (Aap ker massail Vol.7 Pg.346)
4. A ma’zoor is a person who is excused from the normal rules of taharah on
the basis of an illness. This illness could be the perpetual dripping of
urine, emission of gas, flowing of blood etc.
5. Music is not permissible, even for tabligh. As to whether those Sufis
would be rewarded by Allah, that is for Him to judge and not for us. In his
mercy he could reward them, looking at the sincerity of their intentions,
however that up to Him alone.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
