Messages circulated via mobile phone regarding the supplication at iftar
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, messages have spread over these two days via mobile phone containing a unified supplication at iftar against the enemies. Is there any religious prohibition in this?
Answer:
I told you that mobile phones have now become a means to promote bid'ah (religious innovations) by the easiest and fastest way. So, be cautious of what is circulated in them and what is said in them of bid'ah, even if it appears to some people to be easy and simple, because it progresses and develops. We do not take our religion from mobile phones, nor from the unknown people who hide behind mobile phones, but rather we take our religion from the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, through our scholars.
