_Sayyidatuna Ummu Salamah رضي الله عنها reports that Nabi ﷺ said:_

*When Dhul Hijjah begins and a person intends to make udhiyah (slaughter on ‘Eid day), then he should not remove hair nor clip his nails.*

*_(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 5090)_*

```Based on the above Hadith, Jurists say that it is mustahab (preferable) for a person intending to do udhiyah, not to remove hair or clip his nails until after his animal is slaughtered.```

```However this should not be considered binding.```

SURAH TWO AL-BAQARAH

THE BULL

Aayah 51

(Remember also the time) When We fixed forty nights for Moosa (AS) (after which We gave him the Torah), then you (the Bani Israa'eel) started worshipping the calf (which Saamiri crafted for you) after he (Moosa) had departed, (thereby) acting most unjustly (by worshipping something besides Allaah).

ON RECOMMENDING GOOD AND THE REWARD FOR CALLING TO GUIDANCE OR MISGUIDANCE

Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Whoever calls to guidance will get the like of the rewards of those who followed him, and nothing will be diminished from their rewards. And whoever calls to misguidance will get the like of the burdens of those who followed him, and nothing will be diminished from their burdens."

Continuation for types of Sunnah

Question:

How many types of Sunnah are there:

Answer:

Two types:

2. Sunnah Ghair Mu'akkadah:

This is an act that Rasulullaah ﷺ did most of the time, but which he sometimes left out without an excuse. A person will gain more reward for this act than he would gain for a Mustahab act, but will not be sinful if he leaves them out. These are also referred to as Sunan e Zawaa'id.

Q. Upon whom is Qurbani Wajib (obligatory)?

(Question published as received)

A. Qurbani is Wajib (compulsory) on every Muslim who is:

a) Of sound mind – and mature (has reached the age of puberty),
b) Non-Traveller (i.e. Muqeem - not a Shari’ traveller)
c) Possesses the Nisaab amount (612.36 grams of silver) or its equivalent value i.e. MK479,000 as of 20/06/2022, after deducting one’s basic necessities and debts, on any of the three days of Qurbani, i.e. 10th, 11th and 12th of Zul Hijjah.

Unlike in the case of Zakaat, it is not necessary that this amount be in one’s possession for a complete lunar year.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
