DDHK.ORG — Assalamu'alaikum. Ustadz, I want to ask. At my workplace there are 2 Indonesians (me and my friend). I've only worked for 1 year and he's been working for 5 years.

Because, he wanted his brother who worked there. And my friend... READ MORE

Aspects of Ukhrawi (Hereafter) in the Hajj In the pilgrimage there are analogies with the human journey to the afterlife. Among them, the need for Allah's forgiveness and the pilgrimage to become the cause of forgiveness of sins. The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever performs Hajj and then does not commit any heinous acts and wickedness, then he will return clean (forgiven) from his sins as when he was born to his mother". (Muttafaq 'Alaih). Maghfirah (forgiveness) is a matter that is needed by humans when traveling to the afterlife, and the gate to the afterlife starts from death. And Rasulullah SAW taught us when burying the body to ask forgiveness and firmness from Allah "Istaghfiru Li Akhikum Was-alu Lahu Bit Tatsbit Fainnahul Aan... READ MORE

Then We revealed to you (Muhammad): "Follow the religion of Abraham, a hanif" and he is not one of those who associate partners with God. (Surat an-Nahl: 123) It is undeniable that every human being in any religion, by nature, has an interest in worshiping and communicating with his Lord. Therefore, God wisely always determines a certain place for every religious community to gather to worship and communicate in order to get closer to Him. For followers of the US Abrahamic religion, Allah SWT has determined the illegitimate land of Mecca as a place to carry out the shari'ah of the pilgrimage and sacrifice, since Ibrahim AS and Ismail AS received the mandate of worship until the Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Assalamualaikum. Ustadz, I want to ask. Do all forms of lying Allah not forgive him? I'm confused about my situation here. My employer is not good. I haven't had a day off for almost 10 months. You can't leave the house either. If you want permission to buy medicine and other necessities, it can be delivered, and even then it can only be done once every 3 months. Food is not guaranteed. The employer also said bad. Sometimes he would say, “What are you doing in the kitchen? Pray to your Lord?” There is a huge difference between the information when I signed the work contract that allowed me to pray and I was allowed to take a day off and the reality. If I report it to the agency, I am only asked to be patient. As a result, I increasingly... READ MORE

DDHK.ORG — Increasing age has an impact on the aging process. However, the aging process can be inhibited by a number of habits associated with a healthy lifestyle. What are these habits?

Assalamualaikum. Ustadz, I want to ask. If you forget the number of rak'ahs when praying, for example, what should be 2 rak'ahs becomes 3, but when you are standing on the third rak'ah someone reminds you and then you remember, does that include adding more cycles of prayer? Then, what about praying 4 rak'ahs and forgetting whether it is already the initial tahiyat or not in the second rak'ah, and we have entered the third rakaat? Some say, we just believe it's the second rak'ah and do the initial tahiyat. If that's the case, isn't it the same as increasing the cycle of prayer? So, what to do when we forget in the second rak'ah, have we... READ MORE

Assalamualaikum. Ustadz, I want to ask. At what age did you start fasting in Ramadan? Is it mandatory for a 7 year old child to fast? Are we obliged to pay fidyah if we leave prayer and fasting for work reasons? Shukron, Ustadz. Greetings, Fulanah ANSWER: Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarokaatuh. The conditions for fasting are obligatory, in addition to Muslims, they are also baligh. That is, children who have reached puberty are obliged to fast, like other adults. Fasting for small children (who are not yet mature) is not obligatory. However, the child's guardian ordered them to get used to practicing from an early age. Fasting for children has a reward and there is no sin in leaving it. Fidyah only applies to those who leave fasting. ... READ MORE
