Answer:

 

Different surahs in one rakah prayer

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

May Allah Subhanah reward you with the best of this world and the Hereafter for your kind comments of encouragement for our humble efforts in the propagation of the Truth. We humbly hope, beg, and pray the Merciful Lord accepts our humble and weak efforts, forgives us our shortcomings, and saves you, us, and all the believers from the torment of the Hell Fire. Ameen.

 

Q-1: is it possible to send me all Allah's names (Attributes) along with the meaning.

Please find accompanying attachment the 99 ‘Asma-ul-Husna’ or Allah’s Beautiful Names and their meanings.

 

Q-2: can one remove the pubic hair  and purify by taking bath while in a state of fasting?

There is absolutely no harm if one removes his/her pubic hair while in the state of fasting, as the removal of pubic or other hair does not invalidate the fast in any way. The only things that invalidate the fast is:

Eating

Drinking

Sexual Intercourse

Intentional ejaculation

The monthly courses of the woman.

 

Q-2: can one recite any surahs in salah after surah fatheha, (i mean suppose 4 rakhas can i say first surah naas, then surah maaoon,  surah falak,  surah quraish)  like any surahs what ever comes to your mind you recite

It is preferred to recite the Surahs in the sequence they are assembled in the Glorious Quran while in prayer; thus it would be better if one recited Surah Quraish (106), then Surah Maoon (105), then Surah Falaq (113) and then Surah Naas (114). But if one has recited the Surahs in the sequence you have quoted, the prayer will still be considered absolutely valid.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Respected brother Burhan, Assalam Alaikum

May Allah bless you and reward you for your unmatched work towards the spreading true knowledge about Islam.I have a question regard 99 Names of Mohammad SAW. These days we are receiving mails containing 99 names of Mohammad SAW. Is it correct to

believe on these names? Some of the names are as below:

Kareem, Raheem Yaseen, Nabi, Rasool etc.

In my view not all names attributed for Nabi SAW are correct, pls answer this question so that other muslims also can benefit from it and may be guided by the grace of Allah swt. One more question related to this, how many names Allah swt has in total?

Jazak allah Khair.

Answer:

 

Allahs and Prophet Mohamed’s names

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Asma means names, and husna means beautiful. Thus “asma al husna” means the Beautiful Names of Allah Subhanah.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 17 Surah Bani Israel verse 110:For to Him (Allah Alone) belong the Most Beautiful Names.

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.894 Narrated by Abu Huraira

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said, "Allah has ninety-nine names, i.e. one-hundred minus one, and whoever knows them will go to Paradise."

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8.419 Narrated by Abu Huraira

 

 

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “Allah has ninety-nine Names, i.e., one hundred minus one, and whoever believes in their meanings and acts accordingly, will enter Paradise; and Allah is Witr (one) and loves 'the Witr' (i.e., odd numbers).”

Your Question: I have a question regard 99 Names of Mohammad SAW. These days we are receiving mails containing 99 names of Mohammad SAW. Is it correct to believe on these names?

Some misguided people have gone to the extreme in their love and reverence of the Noble Messenger of Allah, Mohamed ar-Rasool Allah (saws), and have in their ignorance elevated him to the status that is reserved for Allah Subhanah Alone!

 

Just because Allah Subhanah has ninety-nine Names and Attributes, these ignorant people have tried to fix some names and attributes to the Noble Messenger of Allah (saws)! Never did the Prophet (saws) ever say that he had 99 names, nor did any of his noble companions ever call him or recognize him from his 99 names.

 

The Quran is extremely clear that the ‘Asma-ul-Husna’ can belong Only to Allah Subhanah Alone, and it does not behove the believers, who sincerely believe in Allah and the Last Day, to share the Attributes or elevate anyone in the Universe to the status or rank of Allah Subhanah.

 

May Allah Subhanah guide the believers to the Path that is Straight. Ameen.
