“The majority of our colleagues (among the Hanafis) and the majority of the Shafi’is have said that matters which admit of permissibility or prohibition in the Sharia before its transmission remain permissible, and that is the basic presumption regarding them… so they deemed permissibility the basis, and prohibition is by demonstrating negation…’” Sharh Usul al-Bazdawi of al-allama al-Akmal, Rad al-Muhtar, Imam Ibn Abidin
According to Imam Abu Hanifah and Imam Al-Shafa’i there is an established rule, “The essence of all (everything) is permissibility unless prohibited”.
"The reality of Mawlid is that people gather to recite Quran to the extent that is easy, also to discuss narrations which are regarding Prophet (salallaho alaihi wasalam), the signs which took place on his birth. Then dinning is arranged for them and they return without adding anything more to this "Bidat al Hasanah". The one who arranges it gets Thawab due to honoring Prophet (salallaho alaihi wasalam) and showing gratitude on his birth" - Imam As-Suyuti

Sheikh Muhammad Salih Al-Munajjid
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 15 | Size: 1 MB
Praise be to Allaah, the One, the Subduer, and blessings and peace be upon the Chosen Prophet and upon his good and pure family and companions.
Praise be to Allaah Who says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And your Lord creates whatsoever He wills and chooses” [al-Qasas 28:68]. The attribute of choosing or selecting is indicative of His Lordship and Oneness, and of the perfection of His Wisdom, Knowledge and Power.
One aspect of His choosing and preferring is the fact that He has chosen some days and months and given them preference over others. Among the months, Allaah has chosen four which He has made sacred, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelve months (in a year), so it was ordained by Allaah on the Day when He created the heavens and the earth; of them four are Sacred. That is the right religion, so wrong not yourselves therein…” [al-Tawbah 9:36]
These months are calculated according to the movements of the moon, not the movements of the sun, as the kuffaar do.
The Sacred Months are mentioned by implication in the Qur’aan, but their names are not given. Their names are mentioned in the Sunnah:
It was reported from Abu Bakrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) gave his Farewell Sermon and said: “Time has completed its cycle and is as it was on the Day when Allaah created the heavens and the earth. The year is twelve months, of which four are sacred, three consecutive months – Dhoo’l-Qa’dah, Dhoo’l-Hijjah and Muharram – and the Rajab of Mudar which comes between Jumaada and Sha’baan.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, no. 1741, in [Kitaab] al-Hajj, al-Khutbah Ayaam Mina; and by Muslim, no. 1679, in [Kitaab] al-Qisaamah, Baab Tahreem al-Dimaa’).
It was called Rajab of Mudar because [the tribe of] Mudar did not tamper with its timing, unlike the rest of the Arabs, who used to tamper with the months and change their order depending on whether they were in a state of war or not. This was the postponing referred to in the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
“The postponing (of a Sacred Month) is indeed an addition to disbelief: thereby the disbelievers are led astray, for they make it lawful one year and forbid it another year in order to adjust the number of months forbidden by Allaah, and make such forbidden ones lawful.” [al-Tawbah 9:37]
It was also said that the reason why it was attributed to Mudar was because they venerated it and respected it so much, so it was attributed to them.
This slide program explains universal brotherhood of Muslims anywhere in the world. It also explains that all humans are part of same family. There is no place for racism or any prejudice among human beings.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. Points addressed in this program
• Quranic guidance on sacred months
• Islamic calendar
• Significance of Hijrah
• Hadith guidance on Muharram and Ashura
• Myths and innovations about Muharram
• Martyrdom of Imam Husain(RA) and its
lessons
• Need for tolerance amongst Muslims
3. One of the four sacred months
The number of months in the sight of Allah is twelve
(in a year) so ordained by Him the day He created
the heavens and the earth; of them four are sacred;
that is the straight usage. So wrong not yourselves
therein… Taubah,9:36
Four of the sacred months in Islamic calendar are:
Zil-Qadah, Zil-Hijjah, Muharram and Rajab.
4. Explanation of this ayah
• Ibn Abbas said that this phrase (so do not
wrong yourselves during them… ) referred to
all the months,
• These four were singled out and made
sacred, so that sin in these months is more
serious and
• Good deeds in these months bring greater
reward.
5. Islamic Lunar Calendar
• The Islamic Calendar is based on the Lunar Calendar
consisting of 354-355 days annually
• It is 10-11 days shorter than the Solar Calendar.
• The Lunar month is based on the time it takes the moon to
complete a single orbit around the earth and it is just over
29½ days.
• Various dates in the Islamic Calendar such as Ramadan and
Hajj rotate every year and are not fixed like the Solar Year.
• Advantage is that people perform acts of worship in
various climatic conditions and in different length of hours
in submission to the will of Allah where human imagination
plays no part.
6. Hijrah Calendar
• The Islamic Calendar was started by the
Caliph Umar (RA) in 16 AH/ 637 CE [Al-Tabari:
Tarikh Al-Rusul 5/22 & Ibn Sa‘d: Tabaqat Al-
Kubra 3/281].
• Caliph Umar (RA) is reported to have
remarked: “The Hijrah has separated truth
from falsehood, therefore, let it become the
Epoch of the Era“ (Fathal Bari by Ibn Hajr)
7. Determining Islamic Dates
• Prophet (SAW) said: “Fast by seeing it (the moon) and end the fast by
seeing it” *Bukhari & Muslim].
• Muslim scholars have interpreted this Hadith in two different ways.
• Ikhtilaf al-Mutali- Some scholars, such as Al-Shafi’i, have held the
view that each location has its own sighting of the moon
[Sayyid Sabiq: Fiqhus Sunnah 3/112].
• Wahdatul Mutali-But most scholars from the other Schools of Law
have taken the words “fast by seeing it” (sumu li ru’yatihi) as a
general command to all Muslims and not individual sectors of the
community. Hence they regard the sighting of the moon in one region
as valid for people of another region, provided the news of sighting
the moon reaches them.
[Ibn Taymiyyah: Majmu‘ah Fatawa 5/111
8. Significance of Hijrah
• The Hijrah separated truth from falsehood
• It was the first major sacrifice made by the whole
Ummah for the preservation of Islam in its early period
• Hijrah year reminds Muslims every year of the
sacrifices made by the first Muslims
• Reminder of Hijrah should prepare Muslims for
sacrifice
• Constant use of the Hijrah Calendar for acts of worship
and as a frame of reference to major historical events
helps Muslims keep links with their roots
• Hijrah further enhances knowledge of their religion
and history.
9. Virtues of Muharram in Hadith
• “The one that keeps a fast in the month of
Muharram will receive the reward of thirty fasts
for each fast.” (Tabarani)
• “This fast (in Muharram) is an expiation for the
(minor) sins of the past year.” (Muslim)
• “The best of fasts besides the month of Ramadan
is the fasting of Allah’s month of Muharram.”
(Muslim)
• The phrase "Allah's month", connecting the
name of the month to the name of Allah in a
grammatical structure signifies the importance of
the month
10. Explanation of Hadith
• Prophet(SAW) never fasted whole month apart from
Ramadan
• This Hadith is probably meant to encourage increasing
one's fasting during Muharram, without implying that
one should fast for the entire month
• It was reported that the Prophet used to fast more in
Shaban. It is likely that the virtue of Muharram was not
revealed to him until the end of his life. [An-Nawawi
and Muslim]
• Al-Izz Ibn Abdus-Salaam said that Allah makes certain
times and places sacred in order to encourage his
servants for righteous deeds and bestow a greater
reward for them. [Qawaa'id Al-Ahkaam]
11. The Day of Ashura (10th Muharram)
• Ashura, literally means the “Tenth” in Arabic.
It refers to the tenth day of Muharram
• Ashura is one of the most important and
blessed days of Allah in the Islamic calendar
• Ashura gained its significance since the time of
Prophet Mohammad (SAW)
• It is the day when Prophet Musa (AS) crossed
the red sea with Bani Israel and Pharaoh and
its forces perished.
13. Fast of Ashura
• When Prophet (SAW) migrated to Madina, he
found that the Jews of Madina used to fast on the
10th day of Muharram.
• They said that it was the day on which the
Prophet Musa (AS) and his followers crossed the
Red Sea and the Pharaoh perished.
• On hearing this from the Jews, the Holy Prophet
(SAW) said, “We are more closely related to Musa
than you.”
• So the Prophet (SAW) directed the Muslims to
fast on the day of Ashura. (Abu Dawood)
14. Fasting on Ashura is ancient practice
• The practice of fasting on 'Ashura' was known
even in the days of Jahiliyyah, before the
Prophet (SAW).
• It was reported that ‘Aisha(R) said, “The
people of Jahiliyyah used to fast on that day.
• Imam Qurtubi said, “Perhaps the Quraish used
to fast on that day on the basis of some
previous law, like that of Ibrahim(AS) .”
15. The virtues of fasting on 'Ashura'
• Ibn Abbas said, “I never saw the Messenger of
Allah so keen to fast any day and give it
priority over any other time than the day of
'Ashura' and the month of Ramadan.”
[Al-Bukhari]
• The Prophet(SAW) said, “For fasting the day of
'Ashura, I hope that Allah will accept it as
expiation for the past year.” *Muslim+
16. Ahadith on Fast of Ashura
• Abu Huraira (RA) reports that the Holy Prophet (SAW)
said that after Ramadan, the fasts of Muharram have
the greatest excellence. [Sahih Muslim]
• Mu’awiyah ibn Abu Sufyan (RA) relates: I heard the
Prophet (SAW) said: "It is the day of ‘Ashura. Allah
(SWT) has not made fasting obligatory for you. But I am
fasting. He who likes to observe fast among you should
do so, and he who likes not to observe it (does not
have to) observe it." [Sahih Muslim]
17. Fast of Ashura was obligatory before
Ramadan fast became obligatory
• In a hadith reported by Aisha (RA) that the
Prophet (SAW) ordered the observance of the
fast of Ashura. However, when the fast of
Ramadan became compulsory, then
whosoever wished, kept this fast and
whosoever desired did not observe this fast.
(Bukhari Vol.1 Page 268)
But, nevertheless the Prophet (SAW) continued
to fast this day and encouraged his Companions
to do the same
18. Fast the ninth in addition to the tenth
of Muharram
• Abdullah Ibn Abbas said, "When the Messenger
of Allah fasted on 'Ashura' and commanded the
Muslims to fast as well, they said, `O Messenger
of Allah, it is a day that is venerated by the Jews
and Christians.
The Messenger of Allah said : `If I live to see the
next year, ‘Insha'Allah’, we will fast on the ninth day
too.' But it so happened that the Messenger of
Allah passed away before the next year came.”
[Muslim]
• "Observe the fast of Ashura and oppose the Jews.
Fast a day before it or a day after."(Bayhaqi)
19. Fasting 'Ashura' expiates sins
Imam An-Nawawi said that it expiates all minor sins
• "Fasting the day of 'Arafah expiates sins for two years,
and the day of 'Ashura' expiates for one year...
• If there are minor sins for which expiation is desired,
expiation for them will be accepted;
• If there are no minor sins or major sins, good deeds
will be added to the servant's account and he will be
raised in status...
• If he had committed major sins but no minor sins, we
hope that his major sins will be reduced."
[Al-Majmu'ah al-Muhathab]
20. Observing voluntary fasts before
making up missed fasts of Ramadan
• Hanafi jurists said that it is permissible to
observe voluntary fasts before making up for
the obligatory fasts, while the
• Maliki and Shafi'ee scholars say that it is
permissible but Makrooh (disliked).
• Hanbali scholars say that it is Haram
(forbidden) and a person must give priority to
the obligatory fasts until he has made them
up. [Al-Mawsoo'ah al-Fiqhiyyah]
21. Innovations on 'Ashura'
• Wearing kohl to seek blessing
• Taking a special bath,
• Wearing henna,
• Special effort in shaking hands with one another,
• Cooking grains (huboob or “khichra”)
• Some other people mark this day by grieving and
mourning, wailing and rending their garments in
memory of the martyrdom of Imam Husain(RA)
22. Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Tamiya's
Reply when asked about innovations
• “Nothing to that effect has been reported in any
sound Hadith from the Prophet or his
Companions.
• None of the Imams encouraged such
things, neither the four Imams, nor any others.
• No reliable scholars have narrated anything like
this, neither from the Prophet nor from his
Companions nor from the Tabi'een; neither in any
authentic report or in a weak report; neither in
the books of Saheeh, nor in as-Sunan, nor in the
Musnads
23. Fabricated hadith
• Some of the later narrators reported Hadiths like:
`Whoever puts kohl in his eyes on the day of 'Ashura'
will not suffer from eye disease in that year,
• Whoever takes a bath on the day of 'Ashura will not get
sick in that year' and so on.
• They also reported a fabricated Hadith that is falsely
attributed to the Prophet which says, `Whoever is
generous to his family on the day of Ashura, Allah will
be generous to him for the rest of the year.'
• Reporting all of this from the Prophet is tantamount to
forging lies against him”
24. Myths regarding Ashura
• This is the day on which Prophet Adam (AS) was
created.
• This is the day when Ibrahim (AS), was born.
• This is the day when Allah accepted the
repentance of Adam (AS).
• This is the day when Qiyamah (doomsday) will
take place.
• Some people avoid holding marriage ceremonies
in the month of Muharram.
25. Lamenting and Mourning
• Another wrong practice related to this month is
to hold mourning ceremonies in the memory of
martyrdom of Husain(RA)
• Incidence of Karbala is one of the most tragic
events of our history,
• But the Prophet (SAW) has forbidden us from
holding the mourning ceremonies on the death
of any person.
• “He is not from our group who slaps his cheecks,
tears his clothes and cries in the manner of the
people of Jahiliyyah.” ( Bukhari)
26. Sayyidina Husain (RA) advice to his
sister
• Shortly before his martyrdom, Hussain(RA)
advised his beloved sister Sayyida Zainab(RA),
not to mourn over his death in this manner.
He said:
• “My dear sister! I swear upon you that in
case I die you shall not tear your clothes, nor
scratch your face, nor curse anyone for me or
pray for your death.”
(Al Kamil, ibn al-Athir vol 4 pg. 24)
27. Lessons from martyrdom of Imam
Husain
• It teaches us to stand up against rulers wrong doings
and oppression without fear of reprisal.
• It symbolizes courage, self-sacrifice, integrity, honesty,
vision, and bravery beyond words.
• It symbolizes all that is pure and true.
• Karbala teaches us that real battles are always fought
in the minds and not on ground. Yazid was powerful
and yet he lost the battle for truth.
• Also, being in the majority need not necessarily make
you right.
• Islam may demand sacrifice in the way of Allah (SWT)
and one must be ready for that with no hesitation.
28. Division and Sectarianism to be
avoided
• Surely they who divided their religion into
parts and became sects, you have no concern
with them." (6:160)
• "Be not of those who divide their religion and
became parties, every sect rejoining in what
they have with them." (30:32)
• "Hold fast by the cable of Allah all together
and be not disunited." (3:102
29. Soul Searching
• We hear and observe tragic violent clashes
between different Muslim factions in Muharram.
• We need to respect differing opinions and try to
have peaceful dialogue to resolve differences.
• We need to take conciliatory steps towards unity
of Muslims
• Are we ready to shed aside our differences and
respect each others’ views during our religious
discourses during Muharram?
