I say, may Allāh preserve and bless you, Abu Ishaq, this issue—firstly, the matter of selling a debt for another debt—is not prohibited in the absolute sense. There are many exceptions to this ruling. Alright, this issue has some ambiguity, and I will send you a very beneficial treatise regarding this matter for clarification (1). You will find it useful, inshaAllah. I will send it to you after this voice note, and…
a. Contract (عقد)
b. Binding promise (وعد ملزِم)
c. Non-binding promise (وعد غير ملزِم)
The distinction lies in the binding nature of each. A contract imposes an obligation, while a promise does not.
For example, if you enter into a contract with someone to sell a car or any other item and then part ways physically, the sale becomes binding. You are obligated and cannot withdraw from the contract; you are bound…
They falsely claim to have settled your debt, while in truth, they are unable to pay because the amounts involved are extraordinarily large and not easily managed. Many of these intermediaries, as kno
Selling Due Debt for Discharged Debt
For example, person A is owed £1,000 by person B. To settle this, they agree to enter into a Salam contract for 50 copies of فقه الميسر. As per the rules of Salam, the price must be paid in advance. Person A, however, proposes not to pay the price upfront but to instead treat the £1,000 owed to him as the payment for the Salam transaction.
According to the Hanbali…

1⃣. Definition of ٌدَيْن (Debt)
Debt ٌدَيْن refers to any obligation that is established in one’s liability (dhimmah), whether due immediately (حالًّا) or deferred (مؤجَّلًا).
Example of an immediate debt: This occurs when payment is expected immediately as per the original agreement, but the buyer either does not pay or delays the payment.
Example of a deferred debt:
Two parties agree…

LESSON 11 ⤵️
https://youtu.be/WvVTsK5b__g?si=BI_qeFDTjKu-W3qS
ABOUT THIS LESSON:
In this lesson, 'Abdullāh learns about using Qur'anic Ayat as evidence and memorizes the most comprehensive proof that Allāh is the Creator.
He also discovers that everything in existence is classified into two categories: الخالق (the Creator), referring to Allāh, and المخلوق (the created), referring to everything besides…

BENEFIT 2: Those who already performed ‘Umrah, but have now come to know it is obligatory - does that ‘Umrah suffice the obligation or must they perform another ‘Umrah?
Sheikh Muḥammad Al-’Ansi ḥafidhahullāh:
If the individual performed ’umrah without explicitly specifying whether it was voluntary or obligatory, it generally suffices. Most people, when performing ’umrah, aim to fulfill the act of ’umrah without delving into whether it is voluntary or obligatory—unless Allāh wills otherwise. This appears to be what is apparent, and Allāh knows best.
As long as the individual has…
BENEFIT 1: If a pilgrim crosses their Mīqāt, is it necessary for them to return to the same mīqāt (designated station of iḥrām) or can they go to a different mīqāt and re-assume Ihrām?
Sheikh Muḥammad Al-’Ansi ḥafidhahullāh:
Anyone (i.e. pilgrim) who deliberately bypasses the mīqāt that they were supposed to assume iḥrām from, they are required to return to the same mīqāt. Yes, they must return to the exact mīqāt they bypassed without having assumed iḥrām while their intention was to assume iḥrām. However, if someone bypasses their assigned mīqāt and attempts to proceed to another mīqāt, this…
BENEFIT 1: Profit and Loss Sharing Between Two Independent Companies
Question: I have a question about a specific transaction, may you kindly address it.
There are two independent parties. Company A is looking to hire a bulk cargo ship for 1 year. Company B is looking to sign a contract with a cargo trader to move their cargo at a specified price and quantity for 1 year (called a Contract of Affreightment).
Both companies want to minimise on the market risk. For example, if the…
In today’s Kitab ar-Riqaq lesson from Sahih al-Bukhari we will go through this hadith in sha’Allah.
Al-Bukhari collected from Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said, “The Prophet ﷺ drew a square, and in the middle, he drew a line that extended beyond it, and he drew several small lines to the side of the middle line. Then, he said, ‘This is the human being, and this square is his appointed time that has encompassed him or is surrounding him. The line extending beyond is his amal (hoping to live…
How can one distinguish between when a da'ee is calling to Allāh and when they are calling to themselves?
Sheikh Ṣāliḥ Al-Fawzān ḥafidhahullāh said:
«...فبعض الناس، إذا لم يُمدَح ويُشَجَّع ترك الدعوة، وهذا دليل على أنه لا يدعو إلى الله، وإنما يدعو إلى نفسه...»
"...Some people, when they are not praised or encouraged, stop giving Da’wah. This is evidence that they are not calling to Allāh, but rather calling to themselves..."

A resentful person neither forgives mistakes nor forgets shortcomings. Instead, they store these grievances in their heart, waiting for the right moment to retaliate. Such a person is unfit for friendship, unworthy of association, and unreliable in dealings. Resentment is often found among ignorant women and the lowest ranks of society, while it is rarely seen in people of virtue and righteousness. As ’Antara wisely…
Winter and the Importance of Modesty
Sheikh Saleem Al-Hilali writes:
"During winter, people avoid exposing their bodies due to the fear of extreme cold. Why, then, is there no such caution out of fear of Allāh's punishment? When trees lose their leaves in public, they eventually become firewood consumed by worldly flames. Likewise, women who expose themselves publicly risk becoming fuel for the fire of Hell.…

Have you ever noticed that the first session of a class usually has the highest attendance, and that the first video in a series tends to receive the most views?
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allāh have mercy on him, said:
"Shaytān is most eager to target a person when they resolve to do good or embark upon it. He intensifies his efforts against them at that moment to divert them from it."

Sheikh ibn ’Uthaymīn raḥimahullāh said:
“It is from wisdom that a person performs his voluntary prayers at home, so his children can see and learn from him and so the womenfolk can follow his example. Also, this is so his house does not become a grave wherein no prayers are offered.”

All praises belong to Allāh, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allāh. To proceed:
I see that many of the posts criticising what occurs during the 'Riyadh Season' are not primarily aimed at condemning wrongdoing but rather appear to target and defame the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the land of the Two Holy sites—may Allāh preserve it and all Muslim lands.
While it is true that certain wrongdoing may occur, as is the case in any land, they are often magnified, and some aim to incite unrest in the…
