*For Sisters*

If the woman encounters her menses even a moment before iftar, then her fast has been invalidated and she must make up for it later along with the rest of the fasts which she will miss in the holy month of Ramadhan - however, of course she gets rewarded for what she has done - though the compulsory doesn’t drop.

Allah is so generous, anything you do for the sake of Allah, you get rewarded for it! So never despair nor grieve, this is something from your Lord the Almighty.

" فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرَّا يَرَهُ "

Whosoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it on the judgment day, and likewise, whosoever does an atom’s weight of evil/bad will see it on the judgement day.

The Week Before Ramadhān
| Shaykh Ahmad Jibril

“The week before Ramadhān is the most crucial week probably... the Shaytān is gonna be shackled... You know what he’s gonna do in this week? When someone’s going to jail and he’s bad, he’s gonna do all the worst things he can imagine, before he goes.”
— Shaykh AMJ


Before Ramadhān comes, do your best to repent from all sins, clean your heart from all grudges towards Muslims, end all disputes and arguments with people, and cut off from everything that will distract you and take away from your focus and worship in the precious moments of Ramadhān. Purify yourself and your surroundings now, so that you can enter Ramadhān in a high and good state of īmān, and reap its rewards and blessings more than ever, in shā Allāh.

Ramadhān Q&A | Fatāwā 480
What are the nullifiers of fasting?

@FatawaArchives1

Ramadhān Q&A | Fatāwā No: 480

Question: What are the nullifiers of fasting?

Answer: The nullfiers of fasting, or what it is known as Al-Mufatarat, are many. The details regarding it need elaboration and explanation but we will summarize with the aid of Allah (taʿala) and point out the most important of them:

First: Apostasy from the Din (religion).

Apostasy when fasting is considered from that which breaks and nullifies the fast, due to the saying of Allah (taʿala): “... And whosoever of you turns back from his religion and dies as a disbeliever, then his deeds will be lost in this life and in the Hereafter ...” [Al-Baqarah: 217]

And His saying: “... If you join others in worship with Allah, (then) surely (all) your deeds will be in vain ...” [Al-Zumar: 65]

Second: Eating and drinking intentionally.

Due to the saying of Allah (taʿala): “.... and eat and drink until the white thread (light) of dawn appears to you distinct from the black thread (darkness of night), then complete your sawm (fast) till the nightfall ...” [Al-Baqarah: 187]

And from the drink includes inhalation of that which has substance, and it entering into the body such as smoke for example, and connected to these are all that falls under that meaning.

Third: Intercourse.

Due to the hadith narrated by the two shaykhs (Bukhari & Muslim) in the report of the man who came to the Prophet (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa sallam) saying: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed, I am doomed.” He said: “What has happened to you?” He (the man) replied: “I had intercourse with my wife while I was fasting.” And this nullifier, intercourse, is one of the worst nullifiers and breakers of the fast, and the most severe expiation is required which is the freeing of a slave but whoever cannot do that then fasting 2 consecutive months and whoever cannot do that then feeding of 60 poor people.

Fourth: Menstruation and nifas (postpartum bleeding).

Due to the hadith of Muʿaza al-ʿAdawiya, which was narrated by the two shaykhs (Bukhari & Muslim) and reported in the narration of Muslim that she said to ʿAisha (radiyallahu ʿanha): “What is the matter that the menstruating woman makes up the fast and does not make up the prayer?” She (ʿAisha) said: “Are you a haruriya?” - meaning are you from the khawarij, as haruri is a sect from the sects of the khawarij - She said: “I am not a haruriya, but I am asking.” She (ʿAisha) said: “We passed through this (period of menstruation) during the time of Allah’s Messenger (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa sallam) so we were commanded to make up the missed fasts but not commanded to make up the missed prayers.”

Fifth: The emission of semen intentionally. 

Whether it is by being intimate with a woman, kissing, touching, or masturbating, because that is the desire that is meant in the hadith of Abu Hurairah (radiyallahu ʿanhu) who said: “The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa sallam) said: “Allah (ʿazza wa jall) says: ‘The fast is for Me and I will give the reward for it, as he (the one who observes the fast) leaves his food, drink and sexual desire for My Sake.’” And as for the wet dream, it is not something which breaks the fast.

Sixth: Vomiting intentionally.

As it was narrated that the Prophet (sallallahu ʿalayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever vomits deliberately will have to make up that day” and it was narrated by the five Imams [Ahmad, Nasaʾi, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, ibn Majah].

And this hadith, even if it is weak, as mentioned by the critiquing Imams such as Bukhari, Ahmad and others (rahimahumullah), it has been proven, verbally and implied, by a group of the sahaba and tabiʿin such as Ibn ʿUmar, ʿAli and others (radiyallahu ʿanhum).

And an ijmaʿ (consensus) was related by Ibn Munthir (rahimahullah taʿala) and he said: “And they unanimously agreed on the nullification of the fast of the one who deliberately vomits.”

And Al-Khattabi (rahimahullah taʿala) says in the explanation of Sunan Abi Dawud: “I do not know of any disagreement among the scholars regarding the fact that whoever deliberately vomits must make up for it.”

These are the nullifiers of the fast in summary, and we ask Allah (subhanahu wa taʿala) to accept from us and you our fasts and prayers.

“Repent to Allāh for forgetting His favours upon us. Allāh gave you the pleasure of sleeping at ease in your bed, and your brothers are being terrorised in other countries. You don’t thank Allāh for that? That in itself is a sin in which you need to repent from. There’s nothing too big for Allāh to forgive, there’s nothing too small for Allāh to forgive. Repent all your sins, greet Ramadān with repentance.”

— Shaykh Ahmad Jibrīl (حفظه الله).

In Sahih Muslim, a man gave a camel with a halter rope on it as charity. The Prophet ﷺ said you get seven hundred camels in Jannah, with halter ropes on them – meaning they are ready. Seven hundred camels in Jannah, ready for you to ride and enjoy the scenery of Jannah.

When you are stingy in charity, you are only stingy on yourself. It is only on yourself. Look at the verse:

وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِأَنفُسِكُمْۚ
And whatever you spend in good, it is for yourselves. (Surat al-Baqarah: 272)

When you hold back and are stingy in giving others, you are being stingy on
yourself because Allah said:
فَلِأَنفُسِكُمْۚ
It is for yourselves.

-Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl, Gems of Ramadan

Laylat Al-Qadr was gifted to the Prophet by Allah!

How many are those who wished to see Ramadan but Allah took their souls before that, we should consider ourselves blessed to be alive to witness this blessed month. Alhamdulilah. We fast and we seek out Laylat Al Qadr, that's our target. To seek and find the night which is worth a thousand months, 83 years and 4 months. Allah is so generous. This night was a gift to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم by Allah for his nation.

The nations before us used to live much longer and ergo worship Allah more. The more you worship Allah the more you get and the higher degree of paradise you achieve. The Prophet being always concerned and wanting best for his Ummah requested something of same nature for his nation, as the life span of Muhammad's صلى الله عليه وسلم nation is only sixty years. Sixty years in comparison to the previous nations who would live and worship Allah, glorifying him and beseeching Him constantly for thousands of years is incomparable. Then Allah bestowed and gifted Prophet Muhammad (peace, mercy and blessings be upon him) the blessed night of Laylat al Qadr upon which the Quran was revealed.

Therefore, the intelligent one is the one who anticipates it, makes an aim not to miss it and concludes Ramadan achieving it by exhorting his utmost effort. It takes a real loser to miss a night like that when it's handed to you so easily.

Start your worship in Ramadhān gradually! Take off slowly, speed up, and then sprint! Pace yourself so you don't collapse before the finish-line.
