Is hanafi madhhab wrong according to the prophets prayer described book by shaik albaani?

yes it is if you think logically, not only for hanafi madhab but also for other madhabs. I ask a simple question 4 u: Did our prophet(saws) taught 4 different ways of salath? The obvious answer is NO, infact the way of performing salath was taught to Prophet Muhammad(saws) by angel Jibrael which means that it is something which has come from ALLAH. Hence there cannot be 4 different ways. We as present day Muslims should follow what is most authentic rather than blindly accepting everything from a particular scholar. And this is the only solution for the unity of Muslim ummah. May Allah give us knowledge which is fruitful for the Akhirah and keep away us from the knowledge which leads to fitnah.... Ameen


What are the importance of alquran?

Al-Quran contains the holy words of Allah the almighty which were revealed to the holy Prophet Muhammad PBUH through the angel Gibrael AS for the guidance of the mankind. Therefore no other words can be more important or holier than the words of AlQuran. A few Ahadith relating to Quran recitation and their benefits. The Holy Prophet said: 1) The best amongst you is he who learnt the Holy Quran and taught it to others. (Bukhari) 2) The People asked the prophet PBUH, "How can they [hearts] be cleaned." The Prophet replied, "To remember death in abundance and to recite the Holy Quran." (Mishkat) 3) That chest which does not have any Quran in it is like an abandoned house. (Tirmizi, Darmi) 4) Whoever read the Quran and memorized it and belived its' Halal to be Halal and its Haram to be Haram [i.e., accepted it commandments of Halal and Haraam], Allah will accept the intercession for such 10 people on from him whom Hell had already become Wajib. (Tirmizi, Ibn-e-Majah) 5) Whoever is an expert in reciting the Holy Quran is with the Kiraman Katebeen and whoever reads the Quran with pauses and it is difficult for him, that is, his tongUe does not move easily and he recites with difficutly for him there are two rewards. (Bahar-e-Shariat) 6) The one who has memorized Quran will be told to read and climb and recite with Tarteel (clear and distinct recitation) like you used to read with Tarteel in the Dunya; your place will be where you read your last Ayat. (Bahar-e-Shariat) 7) Allah says, "Whoever was kept busy with the [recitation] of Quran from my Zikr and asking me, I will give him better than those who I give to those who ask" and the excellence of the Word of Allah over all the other words is like the excellence of Allah over all his creation 8) Learn the Quran and read it because whoever learned the Quran and read it and did Qayam with it is like a bag filled with Musk whose fragrance is spread everywhere and whoever learned the Quran and slept that is he did not do Qiyamul Layl is like a bag which is filled with Musk and its mouth has been closed. (Tirmizi, Ibn-e-Majah, Nisaee) 9) Read the Quran when you heart feels affection and attachment and when your heart becomes bored stand up that is stop reciting the Quran. (Saheeh Bukhari and Muslim) 10) Decorate the Quran with your (good) voices. (Mishkat) 11) O People of the Quran, do not make the Quran a pillow, that is do not be lazy and be careless, and read the Quran in the day and night like it is the Haq of Recitation, and spread it, that is, read with good voices or do not take compensation for it, and whatever is in it, reflect upon itso that you may attain success, and do not hurry in its reward because the reward for it is great (which will be given in the Akhirah).

What are Muslim beliefs about the afterlife?

Differ From what? Anyways in a nutshell the Islamic beliefs about life on earth are simple human are here to believe in God and do good. we should be thankful for whatever comes our way as God is the one who sent it our way whether to test us, punish us or reward us. for we don't know what's good and what's bad on the long run. And the in the after life. after we die we are judged while we are in our graves. the bad are punished and the good are rewarded with the lack of punishment. after that in the day of kyama. we are all judged by God. good people go to Heaven and bad people go to Hell. (Good and bad are determined by how you obeyed God during your life). God is real so


What is the afterlife like in Islam?

Muslims testify that there's only one god Allah and his last messenger Muhammad (B.B.U.H). To be a Muslim you must believe in six pillar s of Islam: 1) Believing in Angles.2)( believing in god) believing in messengers. 4) believing in books. 5) believing in Destiny.6) believing in life after death. Therefore Muslims believe in Destiny and life after death, Allah has guaranteed Muslims paradise. Thus paradise is a "garden where rivers flow" It is a truly gifted life which has been promised by Allah that is life after death that is HEAVEN. Hope this helps, more information could be visited to: Abu anafah's hadiths and the prophet Muhammad's hadith and the book of of Allah the Quran. Hope this helps. Another answer: After death we live with our souls only and not our bodies in a place called "Barzakh" which means a tunnel or transit, here it is between life and the day of judgement. If a person was a good one, then they will be delighted and cheered for their place in heaven, they can see how greatly they will be rewarded and how beautiful their house in heaven will be, how content and relieved they will be. Their grave places will be more like a lighted garden so they wait in pleasure. If a person is a bad one, then they will be saddened and horrified for their places in hell, they can see how badly they will be rewarded and how tortured they will be for the bad things they did. Their graves can be places of torture waiting for the worst to come. May God make us and our beloved ones among the good people who did good deeds in life and are greatly rewarded.


How do you perform the daily salaah?

THE DAILY SALAAH (For Hanafi Madhab)*How To Perform Salaah* For other Madhaahib the principle is the same as the Hanafi principle except the postures and gestures may vary. (For more information contact Your Local Ulama) THE CONDITIONS OF SALAAH (ARKAAN)1. Takbirut-tahrimah 2. Qiyam (standing posture) 3. Qira'at (recital of the Qur'an) 4. Ruku (bowing posture) 5. Both Sajdahs (prostrating posture) 6. Qa'dah Akhirah (sitting posture in final rak'at) NECESSITIES WITHIN SALAAH (WAJIB ACTS)1. Making sure Qira'at is read in the first two rak'at of every fardh salaah. 2. The recital of Suratul Fatihah in every rak'at of every salaah, besides the third and fourth rak'at of any fardh salaah, the status of its recital therein is sunnah. 3. To recite a surah, a long ayah, or three short ayaat after suratul Fatihah, in every rak'at of every salaah, besides the third and fourth rak'at of fardh salaah. 4. To recite suratul Fatihah before any other verse. 5. To maintain correct order between all the different postures. 6. Qawmah (standing posture after ruku) 7. Jalsah (sitting posture between two sajdahs) 8. Ta`dilul-arkan (the full correct physical rendering of the postures) 9. Qa'datul-ula. (the sitting posture after the sajdahs in the second rak'at of any three or four rak'at salaah. 10. To recite tashahhud in both the Qa'dahs. 11. For the Imam to recite Qira'at aloud in the first two rak'at of Fajr, Maghrib, `Isha and Jumu'ah. And also all the rak'at of those salaah which are read in congregation that are not fardh. (`Eid, Tarawih, Witr, etc). The Qira'at of the remaining rak'aat including Zuhr and `Asr should be read in silence 12. To end the salaah with salaam (the first is waajib) 13. The additional takbir in the third rak'aat of witr, the raising of the hands and the recital of al-Qunoot. 14. The six additional takbirs of the salaah of both eids. Before SalaahEnsure that clothes are taahir (paak-clean) and make wudhu'. Stand respectfully on a taahir place facing the Qiblah. Keep feet parallel with toes pointing towards the Qiblah and submit totally to Allah SWT. When you are sure that you have fulfilled all necessary conditions for salaah. A detailed account of how to perform salaah follows: Intention For Salaah (Niyyah)I intend to offer (number of) rak'at of (Type of salaah, i.e. Fardh, Sunnah, etc.) In the time of (Name of salaah, i.e. Fajr, Zuhr etc.) For the sake of Allah SWT while my face is towards the direction of Qiblah, Allahu Akbar. (If the salaah is being offered in congregation behind an Imam, one should utter these words "I offer this particular salaah behind this Imam". VERY IMPORTANTFor Males : No garment, jubba or trousers should be allowed to overlap the ankles. It is Makruhut Tahrimi to perform salaah while any garment is overlapping the ankles. This means that the Fardh (obligation) of salaah will be considered as fulfilled, but there is very little reward and benefit in such a salaah. Female Salaah : Women also perform their salaah in the same way, except with a few differences:- without hands being exposed women should raise their hands to the height of their shoulders. TAKBIRUT-TAHRIMAHWhen saying takbirut-tahrimah after making niyyah, lift the two hands up to the earlobes in such a manner that both face towards the Qiblah. Then say; ALLAHU-AKBAR Allah is the Greatest and fold them. Place the hands in such a way that the right hand is clasped over the back of the left. While in Qiyaam (standing posture) the eyes should be fixed to the spot where the forehead will be placed in sajdah. Women: They do not raise hands higher than shoulders and place arms on the chest. Place the right hand over the back of the left hand above the breast and do not hold it like the Male). Now Read the Sana: SUBHANAKAL-LAHUMMA WABIHAMDIKA WA TA BARAKASMUKA WA TA`AALA JADDUKA WALA ILAHA GHAIYRUKAll Glory be to you O Allah! and praise be to you: Blessed is Your name and Exalted is your Majesty, and there is none worthy besides You.FIRST RAK'AHFirst recite; A UDHU BILLAHI MINASH-SHAYTWAANIR-RAJIMI Seek refuge in Allah from the rejected SatanBISMILLHIR-RAHMAANIR-RAHIMIn the name of Allah, the most beneficent, most mercifuland thereafter recite Suratul-Fatihah; AL-HAMDU LILLAHI RABBIL-`AALAMN,AR-RAHMANIR-RAHIM,MALIKI YAWMID-DIN,IY-YAKA NA`BUDU WA IY-YAKA NASTA`IN,IHDINAS-SIRATAL-MUSTAQIM,SIRATAL-LADHINA AN`AMTA `ALAYHIM,GHAYRIL-MAGH-ZUBI `ALAYHIM WA LA-DWALLIN.AMENPraise be to Allah , Lord of the worlds.The Beneficent, the Merciful.Master of the Day of Judgement.Thee alone we worship and to Thee alone we turn for help.Guide us to the Straight Path.The path of those whom You favoured,Not of those who earned Your anger,nor of those who went astray.It is necessary that a minimum of three short ayah (verses) or one long ayah (equivalent to three short verses) be read in proper sequence as in the Qur'an. eg. SURAH AL IKHLAAS:BISMILLAHIR-RAHMANIR-RAHIM1. QUL HUWAL-LAHU AHAD.2. ALLAH-HUS-SAMAD3. LAM YALID, WA LAM YULAD,4. WA LAM YAKUL-LAHU KUFU-WAN AHADIn the name of Allah, the most beneficent, most merciful1. Say: He is Allah, the One!2. Allah, the eternally Besought of all !3. He begetteth not nor is he begotten.4. And there is none comparable unto Him.Then saying: ALLHU-AKBARAllah is the Greatest.go into ruku (the eyes should be fixed onto the feet) MEN : In ruku hold both the knees with the fingers apart. Ensure that the arms do not touch the body. Keep the back straight, while the head should neither be lowered nor raised. In ruku recite softly at least three or five times. SUBHANA RABBIYAL A¨ZIM Glory to my Lord, the Greatest. WOMEN : When making ruku a woman should only bend over sufficiently so that her hands reach her knees. The hands should be placed on the knees, with the fingers kept together. In ruku the elbows should touch the sides of her body. TASMI'Whilst rising from Ruku Say; SAMI`AL-LAHU LIMAN HAMIDAH.Allah hears all those who praise Him. And stand up. Then in the upright position say: Tahmid: RABBANA LAKAL-HAMDOur Lord ! All praise be to Thee.(If one does not stand erect after ruku and merely lifts ones head and goes into sajdah, then the salaah will not be valid, and it will be necessary to repeat the salaah if sajdah sahw is not performed). FIRST SAJDAHNow saying; ALLHU-AKBAR Allah is the Greatest. And placing both hands on the knees, go into sajdah. (On completing the takbir one should have reached the position of sajdah). When going into sajdah first place the knees on the ground, then the palms, then the nose and lastly the forehead. The face should rest between the two hands with fingers pointing towards the Qiblah. When in sajdah the feet should be upright with the toes pointing towards the Qiblah. The arms should not touch the sides of the body nor the ground. The stomach should be away from the thighs. In sajdah recite softly at least three or five times the following tasbih; SUBHANA RABBIYAL A`LA. Glory to my Lord, the Highest. WOMEN: In sajdah the upper part of the leg (the thigh) should not be upright but in as flat a position as possible, with the feet spread towards the right. While in sajdah the stomach and thighs must be kept together. The forearms should be put flat on the ground in sajdah. Women must not raise their voice when reciting tasbih. JALSAH (To sit between the two sajdahs)Saying ALLHU-AKBARAllah is the Greatest. Sit up straight, do not sit with the back crooked or stooped. It is important to sit up and pause after the first sajdah, merely lifting the head from the ground without sitting up before the second sajdah will nullify the salaah if sajdah sahw is not performed). Men : Sit resting the back on the left leg only and having the right leg raised, the toes facing the Qiblah. Women : Note that a female does not sit on her left leg but instead sits on the floor, with both legs on the right side. SECOND SAJDAHThe second sajdah is performed as the first one. One rak'ah is now complete. SECOND RAK'AHSaying Allahu Akbar stand up for the second Qiyaam. On getting up from the sajdah first lift the forehead, then the nose then the palms, and then the knees. Whilst getting up, ensure that the hands are on the knees and not on the ground for support, except for a valid reason. Saying Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim recite Suratul Fatihah and a Surah and complete the second rak'ah in the same manner as the first one. FIRST QA'DAHAfter completing the second sajdah of the second rak'ah saying Allahu Akbar sit up for Qa'dah. The method of sitting is placing the left foot on the ground and sitting on it, with the right foot upright and its toes facing towards the Qiblah. The palms must be placed on the thighs with the tip of fingers near the knees facing the Qiblah and the ground. It is important that the fingers are kept close together and that they face the Qiblah and not towards the ground. The eyes should be fixed on the lap. Then Read: Tashahhud (Atta-Hiyyaat): AT-TAYAHIYATU LILLAHI WAS-SALAWATU WAT-TAYIBATU ASSALA MU `ALAYKA AY-YUHAN-NABIYYU WARAHMATUL-LAHI WABARAKTUH. AS-SALAMU `ALAYNA WA `ALAA `IBADIL-LAHISSA LIHIN. ASH-HADU AL-LA ILAHA ILLAL-LAHU WA 'ASH-HADU ANNA MUHAMMADAN `ABDUHU WA RASULUH.All prayers and worship through words, actions and sanctity are due to Allah only. Peace be Upon you, O Prophet and the Mercy of Allah and His Blessings. Peace be on us and those who are righteous servants of Allah . I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, who is without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His Servant and messenger.On reaching the kalimah Ash-hadu-allaa-ilaaha form a circle with the thumb and middle finger and lift the index finger of the right hand and at illal-laahu lower it to meet the thumb. The circle should be maintained to the end. THIRD AND FOURTH RAK'ATIf one wishes to perform three or four rak'at one should not read anything more than the Tashahhud in the Qa'dah, but instead saying Allahu Akbar stand up and perform the remaining one or two rak'at. No other Surah should be read after Suratul Fatihah in the third and fourth rak'at of any Fardh salaah. However, it is Wajib to do so In any Wajib, Sunnah or Nafl salaah. SECOND QA'DAH:In the second Qa'dah after the Tashahhud read Durud Ibrahim: O Allah shower Thy blessings on Muhammad and the descendents of Muhammad as Thou did shower Thy blessings on Ibrahim and the descendents of Ibrahim, Thou art the praiseworthy, the Glorius O Allah, Glorify Muhammad and the descendents of Muhammad as Though did Glorify Ibrahim and the descendents of Ibrahim, Though art the Praiseworthy the Glorious. After the Durud recite this du`a:ALLAHUMMA INNI ¨ZALAMTU NAFSI ¨ZULMAN KATHIRAW WALA YAGHFIRUDH-DHUNUBA ILLA ANTA FAGHFIRLI MAGHFIRATAM-MIN `INDIKA WARHAMN INNAKA ANTAL GHAFURUR-RAHIMO Lord! Make me and my children steadfast in prayers; Our Lord! Accept my prayer. Our Lord! Forgive me and my parents and all the believers on the Day of JudgementSALAAMComplete the salaah by turning the face to the right saying: ASSALAMU `ALAYKUM WA RAHMATUL-LA Peace be on you and Allah's Mercy.Then turn the face to the left, and repeat the salaam.ASSALAMU `ALAYKUM WA RAHMATUL-LAPeace be on you and Allah's Mercy. When making salaam one should make intention of greeting the angels. When making salaam the eyes should be fixed onto the respective shoulders. DU`A AFTER COMPLETION OF SALAAHOn completing the salaah one should recite "Astaghfirullah" three times softly. Then one should raise both hands to the level of the chest and make du'a (supplicate) to Allah I, the one below is a typical example; O Allah pardon us. O Allah pardon us. O Allah pardon us.O my Lord! You are the source of peace;You confer peace; Blessed are you and full of majesty and honour.O Allah help us in remembering You and thanking You and worshiping You in the best manner.Our Rabb, accept from us (this duty).Definitely You only are the Hearer, the (all) Knower.Surely You only are the Most Relenting, the Most Merciful.O Allah, Our Rabb, grant us good in the world and good in the Aakhiraat and save us from the punishment of the fire (Jahannum).Glorified is the Lord, the Lord of Might above that which is ascribed upon him and peace be on the Prophets.And praise to Allah the Lords of the worlds.AmeenAYATUL KURSIThis ayah should be memorised and read once after every Fardh salaah and also before sleeping: BISMILLAHIR-RAHMANIR-RAHIMALLAHU LAA ILAHA ILLAA HUWAL-HAY-YUL-QAYÛM.

No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there that can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as he Willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory).
