Best of you

50. "The best of you during the 'Period of Ignorance' are the best of you in Islam as long as they deeply understand the religion." [Bukhâri]

Quotes to remember

13. Ibn Qutaybah said that his disputant said to him, “What is the matter with you?” He replied to him, “I will not dispute with you.” The disputant then said, “Thus you have come to know that I am right.” Ibn Qutaybah responded, “No, but I respect myself more than that.” At this the disputant retracted and said, “And I will not claim a thing that is not my right.”

Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

Ruling on a Fasting Person Smelling Perfume?

 


Question:

What is the ruling on a fasting person smelling perfume?
Answer:

There is no objection to a fasting person smelling perfume, regardless of whether it is oil or incense. But if it is incense, then he should not inhale its smoke, because the smoke has particles which pass through to the stomach, and so will break his fast like water or something similar. But as for just smelling it without inhaling it so that it reaches his stomach, there is no objection to that.
