FIQH

GHUSL (COMPULSORY BATH)

Q. Mention the procedure of performing Ghusl?

* Niyyah (Intention) e.g. "I am making Ghusl to become Paak (Clean)." (Sunnah)
* Wash both hands including the wrists. (Sunnah)
* Wash the private parts. (Sunnah)
* If there is Najaasat (Impurities) elsewhere on the body, it should now be washed off. (Sunnah)
* Perform Wudhu. If one is making Ghusl in such a place that there is fear of his/her feet becoming Napaak again then delay the washing of the feet to the end. (Sunnah)
* Whilst making Wudhu, make sure the mouth and nostrils are thoroughly rinsed. (Fardh)
* After performing Wudhu pour water over the head thrice. (Sunnah)
* Pour water thrice over the right shoulder and thrice over the left shoulder. (Sunnah)
* Pour water over the entire body and rub. Pouring water over the entire body making sure that the entire body gets wet is (Fardh) however the act of Rubbing is Mustahab.

N.B. If any one of the above mentioned Fardh acts are missing (Rinsing mouth and nostrils thoroughly and making sure entire body gets wet), the Ghusl will be incomplete. If any portion of the body remains dry the Ghusl will be incomplete irrespective of how small the dry portion is.

Q. Explain the ruling regarding plaited hair?

A. If a womans hair is not plaited, it is compulsory to wet all the hair upto the very base. If it is plaited, she is excused from loosening her hair but it is compulsory for her to wet the base of each and every hair. If she fails to do so Ghusl will not be valid. If difficulty is experienced in wetting the bottom of her plaited hair, it will be necessary for her to unplait her hair and wash it completely. These rulings of plaited hair does not apply to males.

Q. What happens in the case when pouring water on ones head will cause harm due to a sickness or ailment?

A. In this case it will be permissible to leave the head dry and wash the rest of the body. However once the person is cured of his sickness, it will be Waajib to wash the head. Water has to flow over it.

Q. After Ghusl, should Wudhu be made before engaging in Ibaadat?

A. No, Wudhu does not have to be made. The Ghusl has sufficed for it.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

After the resounding success of the inaugural Radio Islam International’s 'Best Of The Best' Speech Contest in 2010, we are pleased to announce that we will In-Sha Allah be hosting a similar contest this Ramadhan. We would like to thank all for the huge interest and the great cooperation that we enjoyed last year. We do hope that we will experience the same this year.

Learners should prepare speeches on any one of the ten topics available. Speeches must not exceed four hundred and fifty words. Speeches to be submitted to Radio Islam before Friday the 29th July 2011.

Every day during the month of Ramadhan three learners will be selected to present their speeches between 18:30 and 19:00. After they present their speeches participants will be asked questions relating to their topics and other contemporary issues. A daily winner will then be selected.. The daily winner will receive a prize of a R1000 (R500 to the learner and R500 to the school of the learner). The daily winner will also qualify for a weekly final. This will take place on Sunday evenings. Six daily winners of the week will be given new topics on Saturday evenings after 19:00 and they will compete in a final to determine who the weekly winner is. The weekly winner will receive a weekend getaway to the Boma Lodge in St Lucia.

Thereafter, in the final round of the contest, the four weekly winners will come up against each other in a final at the end of Ramadhan. The ultimate winner emerging from the finals, will receive a prize of R10 000 (R5000 to the learner and R5000 to the school of the learner)The runner up will receive R5000 (R2500 to learner and R2500 to the school of the learner). Rules, Topics etc.

HANDY HINT

* Toilets - If your toilet ball float is leaking and filling with water here is a useful trick I learnt to tide you over until you can get a new one. Take off the float (by unscrewing it), empty it, then screw it back on and wrap it in a plastic bag.

* Leaky Toilets - If you think that your toilet might be leaking slightly, check to see if the problem is not due to condensation before calling out a plumber. If you have condensation problems they can be solved by improved ventilation when bathing or showering.

* Leaky Cistern - A clever way of checking to see if your cistern is leaking is to put in some liquid coloring e.g food colouring.

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.

E-pos ons by sjbekker@vodamail.co.za as jy die Dagstukkies op jou rekenaar wil ontvang..."
