Regarding Aqiqa

Question:

Assalamo Alaikum,

We all know that we ordinary Muslims can consume the meat of an animal slaughtered for aqiqa. But can Sayyad, the descendant or progeny of Prophet Muhammad sallalaho alaihi wasallam consume the same? I have heard that the aqiqa meat is a sadaqa of a child to relieve the child from suffering and the sayyads cannot take or consume sadaqa. Is it correct?

Thank you for your answer.

May Allah subhanuwataala guide us in the right path.

Answer:

Wa`alaykumussalam,

It is permitted for Ahl al-Bayt to consume, as ‘Aqiqah is not sadaqah.

Wa alaykumu’s’Salaam,

This dream can mean that an enemy wanted to take advantage of your situation. Block him by doing the dikr of “Wa ufawwidu amri ila Allah inn-Allaha baseerun bil-`ibad” at least 300 times a day.

And Allah (swt) knows best.

Dream: Scary looking man

Dream:

My friend saw a dream in which he was sitting in his house. Suddenly a cage came around him and a crocodile tried to attack him but he was saved because of that cage then he attacked that crocodile with an axe and because of that that crocodile turned into a man man started torturing his fiancé and her sister. His beard of made of snakes when he asked who he was he said I am god, then he and his fiancé’s father tried to stop that man but he ran away and he disappeared suddenly two pictures came & on first one it was written “MUHAMMAD” and second one “Allah”.

Interpretation:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

It could be a Shaytan inspired dream, or a dream which shows that something which your friend idealizes is the cause of hardship in his family. It could be something like seeking worldly wealth without giving regard to other things in life.

Allah knows best,

Dream: Black Crow and bird drop

Dream:

I am married and we have a son together. We fight a lot and have left each other 6 times. We are back together and I got a friend to make istihara for me. She saw herself with her parents in the car. Suddenly there comes a crow bird on her mobile and makes her afraid. She feels it coming towards them. Her father stops the car, the crow leaves a bird drop on the car; it’s a little green. She said it looked gross…they go into a store at a patrol tank and when they came back the car was gone.

Interpretation:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

I am not sure what her istikara signifies. My advice is inchaAllah try to be patient with your husband and pray for him to be granted patience as well. As long as he is not abusing you, and he is providing for you and your child, try to make peace for Allah’s sake. You will find your reward in the hereafter inchaAllah.

Success is from Allah.

Dream: Fajr Salah interrupted

Dream:

I dreamt I was rushing to pray as sunrise was near. And a friend’s mom kept talking to me while I’m doing my morning prayer and held out her hand to give me salam or money or both I can’t recall except my prayer was interrupted and many people were bustling around me in the room.

Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

This dream can mean that there is a project that you could not finish for some reason. Try to do the dikr of “Bismilahir Rahmanir Raheem” at least 300 times before starting any projects, Insha’Allah you will be able to finish any task.

Issues at home

Question:

Salaam,

My wife will not sleep with me at times if we have had an argument for several weeks. How much of a sin is masturbation in such circumstance. JazakAllah.

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Salam,

Masturbation is not an option at all. By such behavior your wife is risking to cause a great deal of Allah’s anger and dissatisfaction with her. You are to warn her by explaining that such behavior is completely unacceptable from the Islamic point of view.
