    Israel hacked pagers that is used by Hezbollah fighters, sadly more than 1000+ are in severe condition, let’s pray for them.
     
    i want to know how it’s possible for Israel to do such a thing? How can they hack a battery and make it explode? We live in a dangerous world.

    gajarkahalva reacted to Dreamcatcher in Jummah Question - New Shia   
    @Abu Hadi @Abu_Zahra
    I believe some Maraja mention it as 'precaution' to perform Zuhr after 2 rak'at of Friday prayers during the ghaybah period.
    During the major occultation of the Imam of Time (atf), Friday prayer is Wajib Takhyiri (discretionary), which means that we have an option to offer either Jumu’ah prayers or Zuhr prayers but it is more virtuous than Zuhr prayer. In case, a person offers Friday prayer, the recommended precaution for him is to offer Zuhr prayer also.

    They are rubbish because they only take Humans to entertain materialistic life, lacking the spiritual knowledge, walking in every path of vain and deluded opinions. They produce nothing but materialistic viewpoints, for example Evolution, modern Cosmology and western Philosophy that will take you 100 steps back for real purpose of meaning of God creations. Delusion of thinking that they have archive a great thing by making progress in Technology, when they actually have become lower than an cattle.

     "They are but as the cattle—nay, but they are further astray from the way"! (25:46)
    Muslims are in better condition that they don't use their precious time to enter an Academic life and come out as arrogant, boastful human beings who think they archived something, while they have just wasted their time and Imaan too.
    I don't even want to waste my time to give an counter argument. Rather I will only advice here that don't waste your time to even watch this dilettante speaker.

    Do not follow what you have no ˹sure˺ knowledge of. Indeed, all will be called to account for ˹their˺ hearing, sight, and intellect.

    gajarkahalva reacted to ShiaMan14 in Did Imam Ali gave his daughter in marriage to Umar   
    The exact citation is, ""Consider Shaykh al-Mufīd’s refutation of the marriage between Umm Kulthum and ‘Umar in his al-Masaa’il al-Sarawiyyah.""
    I made the text large so you can distinguish between the refutation of a narrator and the refutation of an event (marriage).
    Now here are references that have denied the whole story: 
    Some Shiite scholars have denied the whole story. Al-Shaykh al-Mufid says: "the hadith about Umm Kulthum's marriage with 'Umar is not reliable; its narrator is Zubayr b. Bakkar who was an enemy of Imam 'Ali (a).[15]" Ibn Shahrashub quotes Abu Muhammad al-Nawbakhti as saying that there was a marriage vow, but since Umm Kulthum was too young, 'Umar had to wait until she grows up, but before their wedding, 'Umar passed away.[16] According to Zabih Allah Mahallati, a reflection reveals that such a marriage never took place.[17] Also some contemporary scholars have made arguments to show that the marriage did not take place.[18]
    Aqa Buzurg Tihrani mentions some books that have denied such a marriage:
    Ifham al-a'da wa al-khusum fi nafy 'aqd Umm Kulthum , by Nasir Husayn b. Amir Hamid Husayn.[19] Tazwij Umm Kulthum bt. Amir al-Mu'minin wa inkar wuqu'ih (ithbat 'adamih) (The marriage of Umm Kulthum and the denial of its occurrence (showing its non-occurrence)) by Muhammad Jawad Balaghi.[20] Radd al-Khawarij fi jawab radd al-Shia published in Urdu in Lahore.[21] Risala fi tazwij 'Umar li Umm Kulthum bt. 'Ali (a) by Sulayman b. 'Abd Allah Mahuzi; just like al-Shaykh al-Mufid and Ibn Shahrashub, he denied the marriage.[22] Al-'Ijala al-mufhima fi ibtal riwaya nikah Umm Kulthum by Sayyid Mustafa Dildar 'Ali al-Naqawi.[23] Qawl Mahtum fi 'Aqd Umm Kulthum by Sayyid Kiramat 'Ali Hindi.[24] Kanz Maktum fi hall 'aqd Umm Kulthum by Sayyid 'Ali Azhar al-Hindi.[25] Some contemporary scholars have written books on the denial of this marriage; for example, Sayyid 'Ali Milani has written books such as Tazwij Umm Kulthum min 'Umar (Marriage of Umm Kulthum with 'Umar) and Fi khabar tazwij Umm Kulthum min 'Umar (On the hadith regarding Umm Kulthum's marriage with 'Umar).
    https://en.wikishia.net/view/Marriage_of_Umm_Kulthum_with_'Umar_b._al-Khattab

    You still have not answered the question about whether Umar forcefully married Umm Kulthum or if Imam Ali gave her to him willingly?

    You should learn to read more - the article you referenced mentions several scholars refuting the Umm Khulthum-Umar marriage including Sheikh Mufid.
     
    Let's see - The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) rejected Umar's proposal for Hz Fatima (عليه السلام) because of their age difference so naturally Imam Ali (عليه السلام) would then give his 3-6 year old daughter to Umar 20 years later...makes perfect sense.

    Yes the marriage did take place, as confirmed by early and authentic accounts in our books.
    Sheikh Haidar has discussed some of the marriages which people sometimes question and possible explanations for these marriages:

    ?!?! What did I just read? 
     
    How can you thank God for the world being ruled by national law regimes which are secular in nature? I really am losing faith in Muslims today, kneeling before secularism and western law and dumping Islam in the garbage bin. WHY? Subhanallah, and we call ourselves Muslims and from the Shia of Ali(as). What a shame.

    Btw, you guys do realise that a lot of our sources got either burnt and destroyed or stolen by the different enemies at different times right? Expecting to have sources dating back 1400 years for everything is kind of silly. Many of our duas and stories and such are oral traditions and yes they might not have stayed 100% original, but then again nothing but the Quran is 100%.
    If your faith in the wilayah of Ali is based on a crack in a wall, then that faith is as fragile as that same crack. Make sure you teach your children correctly.

    Engaging in futile discussions is the fitna. Anyone who brings up the number of daughters of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) as a discussion has only 1 purpose in mind - somehow reduce the status of Fatima (عليه السلام) or to elevate the alleged husbands of these daughters. Therein lies the fitna. 
    Simple recognition of the status of Fatima (عليه السلام) solves the problem. But if they are too recognize her status, then they would have to recognize Ali (عليه السلام), then they would have to recognize Hasan (عليه السلام), Hussain (عليه السلام), etc.  So its better to reduce Fatima to 1 of 4.
    Here is another example of unnecessary fitna... "the popular version of Hadith al-Kisa' is also very recent" - what does this mean? it didn't happen? What parts are true, what parts are false? Was there no kisa? Did ayah-e-tatheer not come down at that time? Were Hasan, Hussain, Ali, Fatima not under the cloak together?
    I am not saying the intention here was to create fitna but it may cast the seeds of doubt in someone's mind about the entire event of kisa. Those blessed with knowledge have a responsibility to be careful with their choice of words.
    To bring it full circle here is an authentic source and narrative in place of inauthentic/unreliable ones to prove Ali, Fatima, Hasan, Hussain were brought under a cloak and ayah-e-tatheer was revealed:
     
    'A'isha reported that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) went out one norning wearing a striped cloak of the black camel's hair that there came Hasan b. 'Ali. He wrapped hitn under it, then came Husain and he wrapped him under it along with the other one (Hasan). Then came Fatima and he took her under it, then came 'Ali and he also took him under it and then said:
    Allah only desires to take away any uncleanliness from you, O people of the household, and purify you (thorough purifying)   Reference  : Sahih Muslim 2424 In-book reference  : Book 44, Hadith 91   Is every single word in hadith-e-kisa exactly how things happened? May be, may be not. But the facts remain - cloak and tatheer happened.

    Shrine of Abu Lu'lu' is belongs to a sufi saint who has no relation to killer of Umar the second sunni caliph ; which in similar fashion Mazar Sharif belongs to a pious descendant of Amir al-Mu'minin (عليه السلام) who his name has been Ali too which due to some misunderstanding  in reading carved scripture on stone his grave also because of too much troubles likewise too much insecurity  & prevention of anti shia rulers of that region from visiting shrine of Imam Ali(عليه السلام) which even now Pakistani shias are facing too much troubles for visiting shrines through using roads which may face radical anti shias in gray areas between borders  so then he has been mistaken as Imam Ali (عليه السلام) .

    gajarkahalva reacted to Malik.Ashtar in Replying To Salam In Prayer...from A Sunni?   
    (bismillah)

    (salam)

    Issue 1146: * A person offering prayers should not greet anyone with Salam, and if another person says Salam to him, he should use the same words in reply without adding anything to it. For example, if someone says Salamun alaykum, he should also say Salamun 'alaykum in reply, without adding Wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. As an obligatory precaution, he should not utter 'Alaykum' or 'Alayka' before the word Salamun if the one who greeted him did not say so. In fact, the recommended precaution is that the reciprocation must fully conform with the way Salam was initiated. So if he said: Salamun alaykum, the reply should be Salamun alaykum, and if he said: As-Salamu alaykum, then the reply should be the same. Similarly, the reply to  alamum alayka will be Salamun alayka. But if someone initiated Salam saying Alaykumus Salam, then the answer can be given in any of the phrases.
     
     
    Issue 1147: It is necessary that the reply to Salam is given at once, irrespective of whether one is praying or not. And if, whether intentionally or due to forgetfulness, he delays reply to the Salam, so much that if he gives a reply after the delay, it may not be reckoned to be a reply to that Salam, then he should not reply if he is in Salat . And if he is not in Salat it is not obligatory for him to reply.
     
     
    Issue 1148: * A person should reply to a Salam in a way that one who greets him can hear it. However, if he who says salam is deaf, or passes away quickly, then it is necessary to make reciprocation by sign etc., if  hat would be understood. If that is not possible, then it is not obligatory to respond when one is not praying. And if one is praying, it is not permissible.
     
     
    Issue 1149: * It is obligatory that a person who is in Salat , responds to Salam with the intention of greeting. But if he responds with the intention of prayers or blessing, meaning “May Allah bless You”, there is no harm.
     
     
    these are issues which relate to replying salam in prayer from Islamic law of Ayat ul-Allah Sistani 
     
    hope this helps!

    This was not comparing women to animals brother, God forbid such a thing.
    Rather it was just an example showing that you can't just define a woman by her age. Some women are older but blessed with better bone structure and so will not only be more beautiful, but age far better, than far younger women. 
    It's just a fact.
  23. Disagree
    gajarkahalva reacted to kadhim in Marriage crisis for single career women over 30?   
    For real? Ok. I’m going to line these up and knock them down, because frankly, it’s kind of disappointing to see a woman absorb these kinds of attitudes and uncritically say them back like this. 
    So first of all, in terms of the benefits, maturity is what pops to mind immediately. Emotional, psychological, social, economic maturity. That’s a huuuuge thing, and hella attractive in a companion. 
    A 20 year old is a biologically mature human female. A 30+ year old is a woman. There is a difference here.
    The 20 year old has a certain fresh new physical beauty to her. I guess that’s something on a certain childishly superficial level. But my God, are they ever boring at that age. So boring. 
    And how can they not be? They haven’t done anything yet. They haven’t lived yet. They don’t really know what it’s about. They’re still a kid. Who wants to marry a kid?
    The 30 year old and above has seen something of life. Their face and features are fully defined. There is character there. 
    Nonsense. Fertility at 30 is still quite good. Even at 40. It’s a little less, but it’s not really that much less. The thing is, when you’re looking at maybe 2 kids, you only really need 3 years to get it done once you start. Or, well, 4-5 to allow some time for them to really know each other and cement the relationship before jumping into it. Obviously 30 or 35 leaves a little less room for error, but the idea that all is lost by 30 is thinking out of date by probably 50 years at this point. 
     
    I already addressed this, so won’t repeat. But really, as someone a little older than some others here, peak beauty is still to come at 30. Really, someone is just getting there at that age. That’s my perspective anyway.
    This one is going to depend a bit from person to person and on where you live. If a woman wants to have children, and she is in a country with supportive parental insurance benefits (basically any advanced Western nation other than the US), it’s very doable. 
    It’s something that has to be talked out in a serious way when the prospective pair is talking. The difference between talking to a 30-40 year old as compared to a 20 year old is that if he wants kids and she does too, it’s time to start getting more concrete about planning it out and how the pieces are going to move around to make it happen. With the need to be concrete increasing the closer you get to 40. 
  24. Disagree
    gajarkahalva reacted to kadhim in Marriage crisis for single career women over 30?   
    The thing is, work in a job is about making money (and some days more than others), but it’s also about more than that. There are lots of people who legitimately enjoy their work, and it brings them satisfaction to do interesting projects and solve problems and be part of a well-functioning team. Men get this out of work in their own jobs, so it should not be surprising that women experience the same. 
    Also, the truth is that this notion of there being a need for one party to be a full-time -for-life homemaker and child care provider is a little obsolete in relation to lived reality today. Once upon a time, all the housework was done by hand and families had 10 kids and raising them was a full-time 25 year commitment. There was always something or someone that needed caring for at all times until all the kids were married. That’s a career in itself in those days. 
    Now it’s different. Machines make a lot of house work easier. And people have 1, 2, maybe 3 kids. After 5-10 years, everyone is in school during the day. 
    So what does she do with herself in those other 35-40 years? That’s a lot of time. Some women just seem to be happiest throwing themselves into a traditional domestic life, finding creative ways to fill the day with new things, volunteering for kid activities, baking cupcakes for bake sales, running around to practices and activities. And all power to them. If that makes them personally feel fulfilled, good for them. Far be it from me to discourage that. 
    But a LOT of women, given the choice, that doesn’t do it for them these days. And that’s not because they’re brainwashed. They just find fulfilment in different types of projects. Because—shocker—every woman—just like every man is an individual and individuals are different in what gives enjoyment and meaning to their day to day.

    Salam this is same for both of men & women that only healthy  way for both of men & women is just a "good"  marriage which a "bad" marriage for men more riskier  for men than women  or being a single man because sometime women can tolerate a bad marriage for sake of their children but on the othe other hand when a men will be in a "bad " marriage  so then  total corruption will be initiated for men  which men maybe start damaging children or indulge in sinful activities whether  inside or outside house likewise engaging in porn sites & etc . 
    This is totally wrong because Islamically men must have a valid reason for divorce also it will be not easy for men because at least they must they must pay full dowry also in case of having children they can't negate their duties toward their children . 
    It maybe happens for women in similar fashion of men too which in some cases maybe a a man raises their children after illness or death of his wife singel handly  which it will be more difficult for men than women . 
    i totally agree with this part .
    It's also two sided for both of men & women  because both sides are imperfect which both sides must step up toward each other to make things better for both sides by sacrifice for each other . 
    There is no problem about women becoming lawyers or doctors  although they  only can't be judges or rulers which expect these two  positions women can reach to other positions . 
    It depends on many factors & situation which still in easterner countries a woman can receive help of her family after death o divorce of her husband also some countries likewise Iran provide governmental support for these type of  women if their family can't support them .
