Voluntary euthanasia, not to be confused with suicide, refers to humans who suffer from a terminal disease who choose to peacefully, usually with a doctor, end their life instead of spending the rest of their short life in pain or unable to do anything.

What is true regarding voluntary and involuntary response?

Voluntary responses are under conscious control, while involuntary responses occur without conscious control. Voluntary responses typically involve skeletal muscles, while involuntary responses involve smooth muscles, cardiac muscles, or glandular secretions controlled by the autonomic nervous system.


Why don't Muslims pray sun-nah for asr prayer?

Answer: There is a sunnah for Asr prayer - but only before; not after. The same holds true for Fajr prayer. There is not supposed to be any voluntary prayer, even, between the end of Fajr prayer and sunrise, and between the end of Asr prayer and sunset. The reason is simply that the Prophet did not want people to pray too close to sunrise and sunset - because human nature is inclined to worship the sun - if prayers are done then. That is what people used to do for centuries; so Muhammad avoided it.


What does sadaqah mean?

Sadaqah means voluntary charity in Islam. It refers to giving to others out of kindness, love, and sincerity, without being required to do so. The word comes from the Arabic root “ṣidq”, meaning truth or sincerity, showing that true charity reflects a sincere heart. According to Penny Appeal USA, Sadaqah can be anything from giving money or food to helping someone in need or even offering a smile. It’s a powerful way to earn rewards from Allah (SWT) and help those less fortunate. Visit Now: pennyappealusa.org/our-work/religious-giving/


How much are Muslims expected to donate to charity?

Muslims are expected to give 2.5% of their accumulated wealth (Zakat) annually to those in need. Additionally, they are encouraged to give additional voluntary charity (Sadaqah) beyond Zakat to support various causes and help those less fortunate. The specific amount varies depending on one's financial situation.


What is the differences between Zakat and Sadaqat?

Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is obligatory for all eligible Muslims to give a portion of their wealth to those in need. Sadaqah, on the other hand, is voluntary charity that can be given at any time and in any amount. While Zakat has specific rules and conditions, Sadaqah can be given freely to support various charitable causes.
