Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. The questioner says: You have heard, may Allah preserve you, what has been issued in the media regarding congregational prayer and musical instruments, and so on. So explain to us, may Allah grant you success, the correct statement on this matter.
Answer:
We have no doubt that such deviant fatwas will appear, issued by those who are not known for knowledge and not known for uprightness. So we do not pay attention to them. We have, praise be to Allah, scholars and recognized fatwa bodies to which we refer. And we do not pay attention to these anomalous fatwas that have appeared. That congregational prayer is among the obligatory duties. That songs are permissible and flutes and instruments of amusement. That it is permissible to go to sorcerers and ask them and seek treatment from them. All these ideas are false. So we do not pay attention to them. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
Question:
The questioner says:
Answer:
The claim that a woman’s breastfeeding of men makes them her mahram (a relative one may not marry) and her children is a false fatwa. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
