3 recurring dreams related to Ayatul Kursi

Question:

1 night I dreamt that a man was chasing me to marry him & he dissolved in ash when I read Ayatul Kursi.

2 night, I advised someone to read Ayatul Kursi in order to protect their family from evil.

3 night, I was reciting Ayatul Kursi as protection for family.

Answer:

The dream illustrates the hadith related from Ibn Mas`ud whereby the Prophet (upon him blessings and peace) said, “Recite Ayatul Kursi for verily it shall preserve you and your progeny and preserve your house and the houses around your house.” (Mahamili, al-Fawa’id al-Asbahaniyya). Another hadith states, “Ayatul Kursi is one quarter of the Qur’an” (Musnad Ahmad from Anas) so read it in a wakeful state regularly and you will complete the four quarters in sha Allah.

Is Mecca divinely protected?

Question:

Assalamu alaykum Shaykh,

I wanted to ask is Makkah Mukarrama not divinely protected and the Kaaba? Is this not mentioned anywhere in the Quran and Hadith? Because I was shocked when i learnt that the Qarmatians, massacred pilgrims and stole black stone?

Answer:

Waalaykumussalam warahmatullah,

Yes, and those that violated its sanctity were destroyed in turn. These are divine tests and greater yet is to come according to the hadiths of the endtimes.

Freezing Embryo

Question:

Salaam,

My husband and i are looking into IVF and during this process there is potential of more than one embryo is produced, i would like to know is it permissible to freeze embryos if not used at the time for later treatment?. Or do we leave the embryo?

Answer:

Waalaykumussalam,

The answer to your question depends on the legal status of IVF in the sacred Law which, although IVF is permitted in itself, is made impermissible by the fact that it involves kashf al-`awra (baring genitals) before strangers for a matter that is not an absolutely necessary one of life and death, as Dr Samer al-Nass related from his teacher the Mufti of Syria Abu al-Yusr Abidin. Therefore IVF is haram, as is everything related to its process, and Allah knows best.

Question:

Assalamo alaykoum warahmatoulla wabaratouh

Après avoir fait l’opération de ma femme du cancer du sein gauche son globule blanc a chuté d’inconvénient ami deux pochettes du sangs, le docteur a dit du prendre du vin rouge un peu chauffé sur le feu pour enlever l’alcohol,ma question est que est ce que on peut boire où non, faite doah, merci beaucoup mon Cheick Allah augmente votre science sallallaho alayher wassalam s’il-vous-plaît pourriez vous me donner la réponse aujourd’hui si possible sabir

Reponse:

Waalaykumussalam.

La réponse est non. Le Prophète (sur lui bénédiction et paix) a dit “Allah n’a point placé votre guérison dans ce qu’Il a déclaré interdit pour vous.” De plus l’effet du vin dans ce cas n’est ni certain ni exclusif médicalement. Consultez un autre médecin.

Imam ad-Dhahabi and Sufism

Question:

I heard that ad-Dhahabi made anti-Sufi/anti-Ashari remarks that were refuted by as-Suyuti. I know he was highly influenced by Ibn Taymiyya in his youth. I wanted to know if he held these views whilst he under that influence or if he held them afterwards?

Answer:

The premise of your question is the actual question you must first ask, which is did he ever completely emerge from that nefarious Taymiyyan influence. The answer is he never completely emerged from it. He was always of a divided opinion, defending Sufis and their positions on the one hand, as he occasionally did in his Mu`jam al-Shuyukh and his Muqiza in mustalah al-Hadith, and attacking them on the other.
