Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This is a question that has been asked repeatedly, and they hope that you will clarify the difference between al-mudarāh and al-mudāhanah for them so that they can distinguish between the two.
Answer:
Al-mudarāh is when you ward off danger from yourself using worldly things; you give them something from this world to ward off danger from yourself and from your Muslim brothers. This is al-mudarāh. As for al-mudāhanah, it is when you give them something from your religion in order to gain something from their worldly life. In brief, if you make your religion a ransom for the world, that is al-mudāhanah. If you make the world a ransom for your religion, that is al-mudarāh.
