			<description>Question:



My mother was ill and she visited a numbers of hospitals but without cure. Finally, she went to a soothsayer who told her to wash herself with the blood of a goat. My mother actually did what he said, being ignorant of the religious ruling concerning such. Is there some expiation that we must perform and, if so, what is it? May Allah reward you with what is best.

It is not allowed to go to soothsayers, astrologers, magicians or any other kind of charlatans. It  ...</description>

			<title>Removing Hair From Armpits And Pubic Region</title>
			<link>http://iloveniqab.heavenforum.com/purification-f4/removing-hair-from-armpits-and-pubic-region-t164.htm</link>
			<dc:creator>Ithar</dc:creator>
			<description>Question:



What is the ruling for removing the hair from the armpits and the pubic region?



Answer:



Removing the hair from the armpits and the pubic areas is an (established) Sunnah. And it is better to pluck the hairs from the armpits and to shave those of the pubic area. And there is no harm if the (method of) removal is other than this.



Shaykh `Abdul-`Azeez Bin Baz

			<title>The ruling on wearing cologne</title>
			<link>http://iloveniqab.heavenforum.com/purification-f4/the-ruling-on-wearing-cologne-t163.htm</link>
			<dc:creator>Ithar</dc:creator>
			<description>Question:



There has been much argument regarding the wearing of cologne; is it necessary for the Muslim who is a state of ritual purity to renew his ablution because of it, or to wash away what is on his body?



Answer:



The perfume commonly known as cologne is not free from the additive called spirit, which is an intoxicant, according to what we are informed by doctors. Therefore it should not be used and should be avoided in favor of some purer perfume.

If the imam is unsure whether his clothes have become polluted, and he does not leave the prayer, since it is only a doubt, then when he finishes praying, he finds some filth on his garment, what is the ruling?

			<description>Question:



What is the ruling on a person urinating while standing, is it forbidden or permissible?



Answer:



It is not forbidden for a person to urinate while standing, because it has been authentically reported by al Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of Huthaifah, may Allah be please with him, that the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) came to the rubbish pit of a people and urinated while standing (al-Bukhari no.226).

When any of us moves from one apartment to another – bearing in mind that all of the apartments are carpeted – is it permissible for us to pray on them, since we don’t know whether the previous occupants were Muslims or not?

2. If he is unable to purify himself using water, due to weakness or fear of increasing his illness, or delaying his recovery, then he may perform Tayammum.



3. The way to perform Tayammum is to strike the clean earth with his hands once, then wipe his whole face with them, then wipe his hands, one with the other.
