The Ruling on Your Lord and the Weight of Safety from the Sharia’ah of Makkah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. The Shaykh Abu al-Fadl asks: What is the ruling on your Lord and the weight of safety from the Sharia’ah of Makkah? And according to his statement that it is obligatory, is a person considered a wrongdoer unless he does it?
Answer:
If the seatbelt provides control against accidents and safety from them, then that is good and it is obligatory, because this is taking the beneficial means. Allah commanded us to take the beneficial means, especially when the one in authority commands it, for then we take it on the side of obeying the command, and on the other side because it involves taking the beneficial means. Yes.
