*Methods of Weight Loss…diet, surgery, and Fear of Allaah*
Explained by Shaykh Abdur Rahman al-Muhyiudeen
Question: May Allaah grant you good, may Allaah bless you, may Allaah bring about benefit through you. The questioner says: Some people are overweight so they have surgery to shrink their stomach and clasp a portion of the stomach by placing around ita partition or something thus food is not able to reach this portion of the stomach. By doing this their weight greatly decreases rapidly. What is the ruling for this? May Allaah grant you good.
Shaykh Abdur Rahman al-Muhyiudeen: If this does not harm him there is no prohibition. The starting point is to treat the causes for obesity; and to find what are these causes? In most cases obesity is of two types—do you understand?
There is obesity from natural causes and obesity caused by illness.
As for obesity from natural causes this can be reduced by fear; each time the person reflects upon the hereafter he becomes fearful. This is because fear, extreme fear—Is wear by Allaah—will shake the person and remove his fat, remove his weight and turn him grey-headed from fearing the Greatness of Allaah. Fear! There is nothing worthy of worship except for Allaah alone without partners.
The Messenger peace be upon him informed us that during the last days obesity would increase (1), and the reason for this is the people giving in to the lusts and desires of their souls. Fear! Nothing has the right to be worshipped except for Allaah. Sins and transgressions have increased, corruption has increased and the people are not afraid.There is nothing worthy of worship except for Allaah. Fat can be reduced if it is from this respect.
If it is due to illness; the person can treat himself. If he has an illness which is causing this he looks at his food and drink, he diets and decreases his food intake. And if he has surgery to block his stomach this is not prohibited; this is not prohibited. It is permissible.
Translated by Rasheed ibn Barbee
(1) There will come after you, people who will bear witness without being asked to do so, and will be treacherous
and untrustworthy, and they will vow and not fulfill their vows, and fatness will appear among them. (Sahih al-Bukhari 3650)

🔶Beware of the Hypocrisy and Corruption of the Two-faced
♻The Messenger of Allāh [ﷺ] said:
“Indeed the worst of the people are the two-faced, those who go to one group of people with one face and a different group with another.”
📚Sahīh al-Bukhārī(3232, 5719 and 6765) and Sahīh al-Muslim (4566, 4693 and 4694)
♻Imām Al-Nāwawī رحمه الله said:
‘He is the one who goes to each group of people with that which will please them, so he gives them the impression that he is with them and against the other group, and his action is that of hypocrisy, lying, deceit and using trickery to uncover the secrets of each group; and it is from the prohibited sycophancy.’

The best wealth is gratitude, remembrance, and a faithful spouse.
Thawban (Radiy'Allah'anhu) reported: When the verses about gold and silver were revealed, they said, “What kind of wealth should we acquire?” Umar said, “I will learn it for you.” He rode on his camel until he caught up to the Prophet and I followed him. Umar said, “O Messenger of Allah, what kind of wealth should we acquire?” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “You should acquire a grateful heart, a tongue of remembrance, and a believing wife to help you in the matters of the Hereafter.”

MAKING UP MISSED FASTS OF RAMADAN in Rajab: Is it permissible?
Q: Please, inform me about the months during which one can make up for the missed fasts of Ramadan. What are the Pillars of Iman (Faith)? How can one be a sinless Muslim? I have a brother who did not fast the last days of Ramadan i.e. 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30. Now, he wants to make up for them in Rajab, so what is your opinion?
A: It is obligatory for your brother to make up for the days he did not fast in Ramadan. He should hasten to do so immediately after Ramadan, unless there is an excuse. It is permissible for your brother to make up for these days in Rajab.
May Allah grant us success! May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions!

Causes of The Decrease of Imaan
Shaykh Muhammad ibn asaalih al-Uthaymeen رحمه الله said:
From the causes of the decrease of imaan are:
1⃣- First: Ignorance with the (Lofty) Names of Allaah The Most High and His Denoscriptions.
2⃣- Second: Turning away from the reflection in the ayat of Allaah The Most High of Kuwniyyah (Universal) and Shar'iyyah (Legislative).
3⃣- Third: Disobedience(to Allaah); indeed disibedience has a great affect upon the heart and upon the imaan.
4⃣- Four: Abandoning obedience (to Allaah); indeed abandoning obedience is a cause for the decrease of Imaan.
