• عضل (نکاح میں رکاوٹ)

  In the lexicon, adl means to prevent, and the jurists use it of a guardian who prevents his ward's marriage, and in the case of divorce for ransom of a husband who harms his wife so that she will pay him back. In principle it is forbidden for a guardian to prevent a ward's marriage to a suitable husband, and for a husband to harm his wife to force her to ransom herself; a guardian may be permitted to refuse for the woman's own benefit. A guardian is an obstructer when a woman asks for a suitable husband, or a suitable man proposes, and he refuses without a valid reason, whether or not she asks for her proper dower; the Hanafis do not count refusing a dower below the usual amount as obstruction, and the Malikis do not count a compelling father's rejection of suitors as obstruction unless harm is intended. Once obstruction is proven before the judge, he orders the marriage; if the guardian still refuses, guardianship passes to the ruler according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is, most Malikis and one Hanbali narration, or to the next guardian according to the main Hanbali view; if all guardians obstruct, the judge contracts the marriage.

• عفل (عورت کا عیب)

  In the lexicon, afal is a fleshy growth in a woman's genital passage, which arises after childbirth and not in virgins; some say it is a swelling that narrows the passage until penetration is impossible. Some jurists distinguish it from ratq, a closure from birth; both are defects that give an option to end the marriage. The Malikis and Hanbalis hold that it gives the husband an option to annul the marriage, since it defeats the marriage's main purpose; Abu Hanifa and Abu Yusuf hold that neither spouse has such an option. The Shafi'is count ratq and qaran, another closure, as defects peculiar to women that give the option.

• أهل النسب

  Ahl in origin means the household and kin; the ahl of a man are those closest to him and his clan; nasab means kinship, which is common through one parent or, on another view, through both. For the jurists nasab is kinship through the father only: children are called after their fathers, not their mothers. Thus a bequest to the kin of a man, or an endowment to those who are called after him, goes to those who trace descent through the father; the Shafi'is and Hanbalis exclude the children of daughters, on the Qur'anic phrase that they are to be called after their fathers (sura al-Ahzab, 33:5). The Malikis count the children of daughters in one view, and the Shafi'is do so where the one who makes the endowment is a woman.

• الأكدرية

  Akdariyya is a named case in inheritance involving a husband, a mother, a grandfather and a full or paternal sister, with three positions. Zayd ibn Thabit's view, followed by the Shafi'is and Hanbalis, makes the sister a sharer first and then an agnate with the grandfather, so the case is settled from twenty-seven. The Hanafis followed Abu Bakr and Ibn Abbas, so that the sister drops out. Umar and Ibn Mas'ud give the sister half and the grandfather a sixth.

• أخ

  A brother is one born to the same father and mother or to one of them, with full brothers, paternal and maternal brothers, and milk-brothers. In law, zakat may be given to brothers; the father and a male descendant block all brothers; the grandfather and a descendant block the maternal brother; full and paternal brothers inherit with the grandfather; the full brother precedes the others, and the schools differ on whether the brother precedes the grandfather in guardianship, custody and bequest..

• مسلم گھر (البیت المسلم)

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے بیان کے مطابق مسلم گھر: آج اس کی حالت، اس میں محبت اور رحمت، اس کے راز اور رازداری کی حرمت، جاسوسی اور بدگمانی، رشتہ دار اور مہمان، اور حلال رزق اور صبر۔

• خوشی اور مسرت (الفرح والسرور)

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی خوشی اور مسرت کو بیان کرتے ہیں: وہ مسرت جو غم سے خالی ہو، اور وہ مذموم فرح جو فخر اور اترانے سے جڑا ہو، ان کے نزدیک ایمان خوشی کا سب سے بڑا سبب ہے، اور خوشی تقوی اور رضا سے حاصل ہوتی ہے نہ کہ سفر یا مال سے، اور چہرے کی بشاشت نبوی اخلاق ہے۔

• کلالہ

  شعراوی کے نزدیک کلالہ وہ وارث ہیں جن کا میت کے ساتھ نہ کوئی اصل ہو نہ فرع، اور یہاں حکم بہن بھائیوں سے متعلق ہے۔ وہ ماں شریک بہن بھائیوں (ایک چھٹا، زیادہ ہوں تو ایک تہائی) کو سگے یا باپ شریک بہن بھائیوں (دو بہنوں کے لیے دو تہائی) سے الگ کرتے ہیں ۔

• معروف کے ساتھ معاشرت

  شعراوی مودّت (دل کی محبت) اور معروف (اچھا برتاؤ جو محبت کے بغیر بھی لازم ہے) میں فرق کرتے ہیں۔ ان کے مطابق کسی ایک پہلو میں ناپسندیدگی کے باوجود دوسرے پہلوؤں میں بھلائی ہو سکتی ہے، اور وہ حضرت عمر کا ایک واقعہ نقل کرتے ہیں ۔

• قوامیت

  شعراوی آیت «الرجال قوامون على النساء» کو اس طرح سمجھتے ہیں کہ قوامیت ایک ذمہ داری اور مشقت ہے نہ کہ تسلط۔ ان کے مطابق نشوز کی صورت میں ترتیب وعظ، بستر میں علیحدگی، پھر ایسی ہلکی مار جو نشان نہ چھوڑے، ہے، اور اطاعت ظاہری عمل سے پرکھی جاتی ہے ۔

• تبنّی

  شعراوی بیان کرتے ہیں کہ اسلام نے ایسے بچے کو تبنّی کرنے والے کی طرف منسوب کرنے سے روکا جو اس کے صلب سے نہ ہو۔ ان کے مطابق زید بن حارثہ اور زینب بنت جحش کا واقعہ اس حکم کا پس منظر ہے، اور وہ کہتے ہیں کہ یہ حکم وحی سے آیا ۔

• ملکیت کا بتدریجی انتقال

  شعراوی کے مطابق میراث کی تقسیم دولت کو اولاد میں «بہاؤ» کی صورت میں تقسیم کرتی ہے تاکہ وہ معاشرے میں گردش کرے، جبکہ «جبری» تقسیم اولاد کو اچانک محرومی سے دوچار کر سکتی ہے۔ وہ معاشرے میں کینہ پیدا ہونے سے خبردار کرتے ہیں ۔

• وصیت

  شعراوی وصیت کو ورثہ کے قانون کے اندر رکھتے ہیں۔ آیت میں وصیت کا ذکر قرض سے پہلے آتا ہے، جسے وہ اہتمام کے لیے بتاتے ہیں، جبکہ عملی طور پر قرض پہلے ادا ہوتا ہے کیونکہ اس کا مطالبہ کرنے والا ہوتا ہے۔ ان کے مطابق اسلام نے وصیت کو ایک تہائی تک محدود کیا تاکہ ورثہ کو نقصان نہ پہنچے ۔

• علقہ (جنین کا ایک مرحلہ)

  In the lexicon, alaqa is thick coagulated blood, or blood that clots before it dries; it is a stage in the formation of the embryo, from which the lump of flesh develops, and it follows the drop of semen. The Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold that causing the loss of the clot is forbidden; the Hanafis allow the loss of a pregnancy before a hundred and twenty days on conditions they set out, and some read this as limited to necessity. The majority do not require a ghurra for a lost clot, while the Malikis do. The majority hold that a woman who loses a clot is not counted as in post-natal bleeding, while the Malikis count her so, and a waiting period ends with it.

• عدت کے دوران اشارے سے نکاح کی بات

  آیت 235 کی تفسیر میں شعراوی کہتے ہیں کہ عدت میں عورت سے اشارے کنایے میں نکاح کی بات جائز ہے، جبکہ کھلا اقرار اور خفیہ وعدہ منع ہے، اور عدت ختم ہونے تک نکاح کا پختہ ارادہ نہیں کیا جا سکتا۔ وہ نکاح کے تین مراحل بیان کرتے ہیں: اشارہ، ارادہ، اور پھر نکاح.

• عم (چچا)

  'Amm, the paternal uncle, is the father's brother, and the plural is a'mam or 'umumah. In inheritance the full-blood paternal uncle takes precedence over the half-blood one; when alone he takes the whole estate as agnate, and when there is a sharer he takes what remains; the father, grandfather, brothers and sons of brothers block him, while the maternal uncle is among the distant kin. The jurists differ on the order of the uncle in washing and praying over the dead. In marriage guardianship his place follows the father, grandfather, brothers and nephews by school; the majority hold he may compel his ward to marry, while the Hanafis deny compulsion of an adult woman. In custody he is ranked by inheritance, and the full-blood uncle precedes the half-blood one.

• عمّہ (پھوپھی)

  'Amma, the aunt, is the father's sister, and the word also covers the grandfather's sister; the plural is 'ammat. The jurists agree that marriage to an aunt is forbidden by blood and by suckling, on the Qur'anic list of forbidden women and the prophetic prohibition of marrying a woman together with her aunt. Her inheritance is disputed; those who admit distant kin to inheritance give her a share, and those who deny it do not. She has a right to custody after those who have a prior right, following the jurists' order. Her maintenance is disputed: the Hanafis require it for a relative within the forbidden degrees, the Malikis and Shafi'is require it on conditions, and the Hanbalis require it on the basis of inheritance by kinship, while al-Qadi among the Hanbalis denies it.

• عنت (گناہ کا خوف)

  In the lexicon, 'anat is hardship, ruin and sin; among the jurists it means adultery and lewdness, and this is how they read the Qur'anic permission to marry a slave-woman for one who fears 'anat. The jurists agree that a believing slave-woman may be married by one who cannot afford a free wife and fears 'anat, and this is the view of most scholars. Still, patience in avoiding such a marriage is better. The majority (Shafi'is, Hanbalis and the preferred Maliki view) hold that the basic rule is that marrying a slave-woman is forbidden unless the conditions are met, while the Hanafis allow it on lighter conditions. The Malikis allow marrying a slave-woman owned by one's own slave, with distinctions, but a master may not marry his own slave-woman, since ownership and being owned conflict.

• عنوس (کنواری بیٹھی عورت)

  In the lexicon, 'anus is a woman whose marriage is delayed after she reaches the age and stays in her family's house; the word is also used of a man whose marriage is late, and its plural is 'unnas. The obstruction of a marriage by a guardian can be a cause of a woman remaining unmarried. The jurists differ on treating the spinster as a virgin in matters of compulsion and consent: the majority hold she remains like a virgin in the guardian's power to compel her, while some Malikis and Shafi'is treat her like a previously married woman once her virginity is lost. The jurists do not fix a single age for spinsterhood; some give a range from twenty to forty, and others refer it to custom. The father must maintain an unmarried daughter until she marries.

• عقیقہ (نومولود کی طرف سے ذبیحہ)

  In the lexicon, aqiqa is the hair a child is born with, and it names the animal sacrificed for a newborn; as a term it is what is slaughtered for a newborn in thanks to God. It differs from the festival sacrifice in its time and place: it is slaughtered when the child is born, at any time of the year, whereas the sacrifice is made on the days of sacrifice. The Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold it a confirmed sunna and the Malikis recommended; the Hanafis allow it as a voluntary act in thanks. The Shafi'is ask it from a father who can afford it, and the majority hold it for a girl as well as a boy. The Hanafis and Malikis fix the time at the seventh day, while the Shafi'is and Hanbalis count from the child's complete birth; the Shafi'is and Hanbalis require livestock, two sheep for a boy and one for a girl, while the Hanafis and Malikis give one for each. It is recommended to cook it without breaking its bones, eat from it, give it as gifts and charity, and to pronounce the reported formula at slaughter.

• موقع العرب وأقوامها قبل الإسلام

  The opening chapter of al-Raheeq al-Makhtum: the word 'Arab', the peninsula's borders, size and position between the continents, the historians' threefold division (extinct, original and Arabized Arabs), the Kahlani migrations from Yemen, the Adnani descent from Ismail, and the tribes' distribution across Arabia.

• عرض

  In the lexicon, ard means showing and disclosing; the jurists use the word in its lexical sense. In marriage, when one of two pagan or Magian spouses converts, or a People-of-the-Book man who married a pagan or Magian woman before consummation converts, the Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold that the separation is immediate and is an annulment (faskh), not a divorce. If the conversion comes after consummation, the Shafi'is and, in one report, Ahmad wait until the waiting period ends: if the other spouse converts before then, the marriage stands; otherwise the separation dates from the difference of religion. The Hanafis offer Islam to the spouse who has not converted and separate them if that spouse refuses, with distinctions for People of the Book and others. A woman may offer herself to a righteous man, and a father may offer his daughter to one whose goodness he trusts, even if that man is already married.

• ارحام (رشتہ داری)

  رحم بچے کے پیدا ہونے کی جگہ اور اس کا برتن ہے، اور مجازاً قرابت کو کہتے ہیں۔ رحم کی دو قسمیں ہیں: محرم اور غیر محرم۔ محرم وہ دو شخص ہیں جن کے درمیان قرابت ہو کہ اگر ایک مرد اور دوسری عورت فرض کی جائے تو ان کا نکاح حلال نہ ہو، جیسے ماں باپ، بہن بھائی، دادا دادی خواہ کتنے اوپر ہوں، اولاد اور ان کی اولاد خواہ کتنی نیچے ہو، چچا، پھوپھی، ماموں اور خالہ۔ چچا زاد، پھوپھی زاد، ماموں زاد اور خالہ زاد کے درمیان محرمیت نہیں۔ صلہ رحمی، قطع رحم، وراثت، وصیت، نفقہ، نظر، ولایت، شہادت اور عتق کے احکام بھی اسی مدخل میں ہیں، ہر ایک اپنی جگہ کی تفصیل کے ساتھ۔

• عصبہ (عصبات)

  In the lexicon, asaba are a man's sons and his paternal relatives, who inherit from him. As a term they are the heirs who have no fixed share in the inheritance agreed upon, and who take what remains after the sharers take theirs, or the whole estate if there are no sharers. They are set against the sharers (ashab al-furud), who have a fixed share in the Book of God, and against the distant kin (dhawu al-arham), who are relatives with neither a fixed share nor agnatic standing. Agnates in inheritance are of three kinds: the agnate in his own right, such as a son; the agnate through another, such as daughters with their brothers; and the agnate with another, such as sisters with daughters. They take what the fixed shares leave, and the whole estate if alone. Agnates also have priority in the washing and funeral prayer of the dead, the right to contract a marriage on behalf of a woman, custody of a child when no woman entitled to it is available, and the bearing of blood money for manslaughter, with the Shafi'is excluding the ascendant and descendant from that burden.

• تسمية العرب لأبنائهم على أسماء النبات

  Al-Hamdani observes that the Arabs inclined to name their men after thorny grazing shrubs — for the hardness, sharpness and drought-endurance in them: Talha, Samura, Awsaja, 'Urfuta, Qanada, 'Isiya, Sabra — and their women after the soft plants and fruits: Ghilqa, Bashama, Busra, Sahamma.

• العَوْل في الفرائض

• عزل

  In the lexicon, azl means removal or setting aside, as in removing someone from a post. The supreme imamate is established by the allegiance of those who bind and loose and lasts while its conditions last. Most jurists allow the imam to resign, while one view forbids it. A minister may not dismiss himself, but the imam may dismiss the minister he appointed. A judge may resign; the death of the imam who appointed him does not end his office according to the jurists; and the jurists differ on whether the imam may dismiss him, in three views. A judge loses office on losing a condition such as sanity, speech, hearing or sight, and some schools also count apostasy and wrongdoing; the dismissal does not take effect until word of it reaches him, according to the majority. Dismissal of an agent, guardian, partner in a profit-sharing contract, surety and administrator of an endowment is treated in turn. The entry also treats, under the same heading, withdrawal from a wife or slave-woman: the majority permit it, the wife's consent is disputed, and the jurists list excuses that make it lawful.

• دودھ پلانا اور دودھ چھڑانا

  In his commentary on the nursing verse (al-Baqara 2:233), Sha'rawi treats the period of suckling, the child's claim on both parents, and the duty of maintenance, which he places on the father; he reads weaning as a matter for mutual consent and consultation, and holds that the verse protects the child from the effects of divorce.

• الصِّغَر

  In language sighar is smallness of size or age; as a term it is a state that attaches to a person from birth until puberty. It has two stages, before discernment and discernment, and discernment has no fixed age. Capacity to have rights and duties belongs to the child and the adult alike; capacity to act depends on discernment. The rights of a newborn include a call to prayer in the right ear and the iqama in the left, tahnik, naming, the 'aqiqa (recommended by most), and circumcision (obligatory for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis, a sunna for the Hanafis and Malikis). Damages, support, tithe, zakat and other dues attach to the minor's estate, and the guardian pays from it. Guardianship covers the person and property; the guardian may only act for the minor's good, and the rich may not eat from an orphan's property. A child is ordered to pray at seven and beaten for it at ten, and is not bound to pray, fast or make the pilgrimage; his oaths and vows do not bind. His property is not handed over until he is of sound judgment, and the schools differ on restriction, licence to trade, bequests, marriage, divorce, waiting periods, testimony, and retaliation.

• الشَّهْوة

  Shahwa is the longing of the self for pleasant things. Al-Mawardi held that the self should be given a measured share of what is lawful. It has effects in law. The Hanafis break ablution by touch only with gross contact; the Malikis and Hanbalis limit breach by touch to touch with desire; the Shafi'is make any contact of skin a breach. Emission by sustained looking breaks the fast in the view of the Malikis and Hanbalis but not in that of the Hanafis and Shafi'is. Looking with desire at a woman is forbidden, whether she is a stranger or one's kin, except one's wife. The Hanafis hold that touch or look with desire makes a marriage forbidden as in the case of unlawful intercourse.

• ذکر (عضو تناسل، فقہی احکام)

  ذکر عضو تناسل کو کہتے ہیں اور عورت کی ضد ہے۔ اس کو ہاتھ لگانے سے وضو ٹوٹنے کے بارے میں فقہاء کا اختلاف ہے۔

• مرد ہونا (فقہی احکام میں شرط)

  ذکورت عورت کی ضد ہے، اور فقہاء اسے کئی احکام میں شرط مانتے ہیں: نماز کی امامت، جمعہ کا وجوب، جہاد، اور امامت عظمیٰ۔

• ذریت (فقہی احکام)

  ذریت لغت میں اولاد کو کہتے ہیں۔ جمہور کے نزدیک وقف میں ذریت میں بیٹیوں کی اولاد بھی داخل ہے، جبکہ خرقی حنبلی اس سے اختلاف کرتے ہیں۔

• رخصتی سے پہلے طلاق

  شعراوی بیان کرتے ہیں کہ رخصتی سے پہلے طلاق پانے والی عورت کا کیا حق ہے۔ اگر مہر مقرر نہ ہوا ہو تو شوہر کی استطاعت کے مطابق متعہ ہے، اور اگر مہر مقرر ہو تو آدھا مہر، جب تک عورت یا وہ شخص جس کے ہاتھ میں نکاح کی گرہ ہے معاف نہ کرے۔ وہ یہاں فضل کو عدل کی تکمیل سمجھتے ہیں.

• الشَّكّ

  Shakk is hesitation between two possibilities, whether they are equal or one prevails. The rule of the jurists is that certainty is not removed by doubt, that doubt about a shortfall is treated as a shortfall, and that doubt about an addition is treated as an addition. Doubt has different effects according to its origin: a slaughtered animal whose slaughter is in doubt is forbidden; the worshipper builds on certainty in prayer, circumambulation and fasting; divorce is not effective on mere doubt about whether it was pronounced; penalties are averted by doubt; and concessions do not rest on doubt. The schools differ on some cases, such as doubt about a breach of ablution after certainty of purity, the number of rak'as, and the number of divorces.

• آداب المجتمع الجديد في المدينة

  The manners the Prophet taught his companions in Medina: spreading the greeting of peace, feeding people, keeping kinship ties, good neighbourliness, mutual compassion, charity to the weak and clearing the road of harm, as al-Raheeq al-Makhtum reports them from the sound hadiths.

• غضِّ بصر (نگاہ نیچی رکھنا)

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے نزدیک نگاہ نیچی رکھنا بصیرت کی حفاظت ہے، بہت سے واقعات ایک نظر سے شروع ہوتے ہیں، اور گزرتا خیال شروع ہی میں رد کرنا چاہیے ۔

• حضانت (بچے کی پرورش)

  Custody (hadana) is keeping safe, and raising in what suits, a person who cannot yet manage his own affairs; it is obligatory, since the child may perish or be harmed without it, and it becomes an individual duty when there is no other custodian. It differs from sponsorship (kafala), which is the joining of liabilities, from guardianship, and from the executorship that a will creates. It applies to a child, and to an insane or imbecile adult by general agreement. The mother has the better claim so long as she does not marry a stranger to the child: ”You have the better claim to him as long as you do not marry.” The order of claimants after the mother differs: the Hanafis put the mother's mother, the father's mother, the sisters, the aunts and then the agnates; the Malikis put the maternal grandmother, the aunts, the paternal grandmother, then the father; the Shafi'is put the daughter, the mothers' line, the paternal grandmother, the sisters and the aunts; the Hanbalis put the mothers' line, then the father, the paternal line, the grandfather, and the sisters, aunts and kin. When male and female claimants stand equal, the female takes precedence. The custodian's conditions include Islam for some, puberty and reason, trustworthiness, ability, freedom from contagious illness, soundness of judgement for the Malikis and Shafi'is, and a safe place. A man must be a mahram of an adolescent girl in his charge; a woman must not marry a stranger to the child and must not keep him in the house of someone who dislikes him. The place of custody is the father's dwelling; a custodian's removal to settle elsewhere ends custody for the majority, and the Hanafis draw a distinction for a mother's travel. Payment for custody is allowed for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis, and in the preferred Maliki view there is none. Custody lapses with a bar and returns when the bar is removed, and the views differ on its return after divorce. The mothers' custody of a boy ends at seven for the Hanafis, at puberty for the Malikis, while the Shafi'is give the child a choice between his parents on reaching discernment. Each parent has the right to see and visit the child.

• هَدِيَّة

  Hadiyya in the lexical sense is a thing of value sent to another as an honour; technically it is the transfer of a thing to another without return, a kind of gift (hiba) that differs in that it is carried to the recipient as a courtesy. It is complete when the giver sends it and the recipient takes it; no formula is required. The giver may retract before receipt, in the view of the majority. Where a gift comes in a container, the container is returned or held in trust depending on custom. At a circumcision or wedding, gifts suited to children go to the child, and others follow the kinship of the giver to the father or the mother. Gifts that officials and judges receive by virtue of office are forbidden; the Prophet's saying 'the gifts of officials are plunder' is cited. The imam may not accept gifts, according to the jurists. The mufti, preacher and teacher may accept, though it is better to refrain.

• حفید (پوتا / نواسہ)

  In the jurists' usage the hafid is a son's son. He is an agnatic heir by agreement, and stands in the place of a son when there is none; he makes agnatic his sisters and paternal cousins in his degree. For the Hanbalis, a daughter's son is also a hafid, and he inherits among the kin by blood. A granddaughter takes the place of a daughter when none is left and takes a sixth with a daughter. On whether grandchildren enter a bequest to ”the children”, the Hanbalis and the Hanafi favoured view include sons' children and not daughters' children; the Shafi'is in the sounder view exclude them.

• حجب میراث

  Hajb (blocking) in inheritance is the barring of an heir from the whole share, called hajb hirman, or from a larger share to a smaller one, called hajb nuqsan. Exclusion by a quality, such as killing or slavery, does not reach the six heirs who cannot be excluded: the two parents, the spouses, the son and the daughter; exclusion by a person, such as a brother blocked by the father or the son, is the other kind. Reduction (nuqsan) affects five heirs: the two spouses, the mother, the son's daughter, the sister by the father, and the maternal siblings. Among the general rules, the nearer heir blocks the more remote, the stronger tie blocks the weaker, and whoever is linked to the deceased through an heir inherits only with the mother's children. The jurists differ on whether the grandfather blocks full and paternal brothers: the Hanafis hold that he does, while the majority and the two companions of Abu Hanifa hold that he inherits with them. The grandmother is blocked by the mother, and the jurists differ on the paternal grandmother and on whether a nearer grandmother on one side blocks a remoter one on the other. Most jurists hold that an heir excluded for a bar such as killing or slavery does not block others, but Ibn Mas'ud held that a deprived heir still blocks.

• هَجْر

  Hajr in the lexical sense is the opposite of joining; technically it is leaving what must be attended to, and a person's separation from another in body, speech or heart. Abandoning what God has forbidden is commanded, on the saying 'the emigrant is one who abandons what God has forbidden'. It is forbidden for a Muslim to shun his Muslim brother for more than three nights; most jurists allow shunning for three nights, and some count shunning beyond that among the major sins except toward one who has left the brotherhood of Islam. Whether shunning ends by written messages to an absent person, or by greeting, the jurists differ. The better of the two who shun is the one who greets first. Shunning a non-Muslim is allowed, and a husband may shun a rebellious wife in bed until she obeys. Shunning openly sinful or innovating people as correction is recognised, and the jurists give several rulings on it and three on the one who sins in secret.

• حاملہ

  فقہ میں حاملہ وہ عورت ہے جس کے پیٹ میں بچہ ہو۔ اس باب میں اس کے خون، روزے، نکاح، طلاق، عدت، نفقے، حدود کے نفاذ، جنین کے نقصان، اور حاملہ جانور کی ذبح، زکوۃ اور بیع کے احکام شامل ہیں۔

• حشفہ (احکام میں)

  In the jurists' usage, the glans (hashfa) is what lies beneath the skin cut in circumcision; a series of rulings depend on it in the matter of intercourse, such as the major ablution, the invalidating of fasting and the hajj, the full bridal gift, lawful return after triple divorce, the status of marriage, and the penalty for fornication, on each of which the schools differ in detail. In a mistaken injury that severs the glans, the full blood-money is owed by agreement, and part of it for a partial severance according to the majority.

• هِبَة

  Hiba in the lexical sense is giving a thing to another without return; technically it is transferring property without return at once. It differs from the wider atiya, from hadiya in that most jurists require acceptance in a gift, and from sadaqa, which seeks reward in the hereafter. Gifts are lawful by the Qur'an, the sunna and consensus, recommended, forbidden when meant for sin, aid to wrongdoing or bribery, and disliked when meant for show. The pillars are, for most jurists, the two parties, the thing given and the formula; for the Hanafis only the formula. The donor must be competent; the schools differ on the debt-bound, the feeble-minded, a dying man's gift beyond a third, and a father's gift of his son's property for a return. The gift of an unauthorized donor is void for most, suspended on approval for the Hanafis; a drunkard's gift depends on whether the drink was lawful. The thing given must exist, be owned by the donor and have value; most jurists disallow gifts of the non-existent or unknown, while the Malikis allow what can be moved. The schools differ on giving a debt to a third party and on an undivided share. On possession: the Hanafis, Shafi'is and one Hanbali view require it, with donor's leave and no encumbrance; the Malikis hold the gift binding by the contract, and a Hanbali view accepts an unpossessed gift of what is not measured. On the formula: the Hanafis count the offer alone as the pillar, the majority the offer and acceptance; acceptance may be by act; delayed acceptance is allowed by the Malikis and Hanbalis; a conditional gift is refused by the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis. Conditions attached to a gift: the majority void an invalid condition and keep the gift; the Malikis, Shafi'is and one Hanbali view void both. A gift for a return: most jurists allow it, the Shafi'is in the weaker view and one Hanbali view forbid it; its nature is a sale by the Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis, and a gift begun and sale completed by the Hanafis. Whether a return is due without stipulation: the Hanafis, Shafi'is and the Hanbali school do not require it except by statement; the Malikis and one Hanbali view require it by custom. Retraction: the majority forbid it except for the father in his son's gift; the Malikis extend it to the mother and ascendants; the Hanafis allow it with disapproval. Impediments to retraction: for the Hanafis, the thing's destruction, its passing out of the donee's hands, a joined increase, a return, kinship, marriage, alms, the death of either party, or change in the thing; for the Malikis, an increase or decline, a debt contracted on account of the gift, or the donee's illness; for the Shafi'is, leaving the donee's control; for the Hanbalis, leaving his ownership, others' interest in it, or an increase. A retraction is a dissolution for the Hanafis when made by judgment or by mutual consent (Zufar holds consent a new gift); the retracted thing returns to the donor, and the donee who holds it after retraction is not liable unless he exceeded.

• الشَّورة

  Shawra is the household goods: bedding, covering and clothing, and in Maliki usage the implements the house needs. A wife is owed from her husband what keeps her alive, food and clothing and the goods she needs, which is agreed. Most jurists hold that the husband may not use goods the wife owns without her leave. The Malikis allow him use if she has received her dower; if not, he may stop her from disposing of the goods in a way that ends her ownership.

• والدین کے حقوق

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے بیان کے مطابق والدین کے بچوں پر حقوق: زندگی اور وفات کے بعد نیکی اور احسان، ماں کی تقدیم، اور نافرمانی سے اجتناب۔

• میاں بیوی کے حقوق

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی نے حقوق کے سلسلے کے دو دروس میں میاں بیوی کے حقوق بیان کیے ہیں: بیوی کے شوہر پر اور شوہر کے بیوی پر حقوق، ساتھ محبت، رحمت اور حسنِ معاشرت۔

• ابن

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia gives the literal sense of ibn as the son in direct line by blood, from the back or from the belly; its use for a son's son is figurative, and a foster son, when the word is used alone, is taken as the direct blood son. For the father, the son is every male born to him on a valid bed, under a defective marriage, by a recognised mistaken intercourse, or by a bond of ownership; for the mother, every male she bore from a marriage or from an illicit union, and a male she suckled is a foster son to her. The son is an agnate in his own right and the first of the agnates: he takes the whole estate if alone, and the remainder after the fixed shares, and he is not excluded from inheritance at all. The jurists agree that he inherits the freedman's patronage (wala') before a daughter; the majority hold that he has the right to contract his mother's marriage; and in some schools he bears a share of the blood money and of the oath of qasama in homicide. The son of unlawful intercourse is ascribed to his mother alone. The detailed rules are given in their places: inheritance, marriage, foster-relations, maintenance, custody, descent, offences and the aqiqa.

• ابن الأخ

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a brother's son as the male issue of a brother, whether full, paternal, maternal or by fostering; when used without qualification the word means the blood relation, and it is used figuratively for a brother's son's son however far down. He takes the place of a brother when none is living, in inheritance, except in five matters: he does not make his sister agnate; the grandfather excludes him; a number of such nephews does not reduce the mother's share from a third to a sixth, unlike brothers; a maternal nephew does not inherit as a fixed-share heir; and a nephew does not take the place of brothers in the musharraka case. The jurists agree that a full or paternal nephew comes before the paternal uncle in inheritance, in bequest to the nearest kin, and in guardianship of marriage; they agree that the grandfather comes before him in custody. The Malikis place him before the grandfather in bequest to the nearest kin and in guardianship of marriage.

• ابن العم

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a paternal uncle's son, linguistically, as the male child of a paternal brother, by blood or by fostering; without qualification the word means the blood cousin, full, paternal or maternal. The full or paternal cousin is an agnate in his own right: he takes the whole estate when alone and no closer agnate exists, and otherwise the remainder after the fixed shares, by agreement. The maternal cousin is among those with blood-ties through a female, and generally inherits in that capacity, though earlier and later jurists differ on how he inherits. The agnatic cousin has the right to contract the marriage of his cousins when no closer guardian exists, and by agreement he may take retaliation for homicide if he is an heir; he has the custody of a male cousin when no woman or closer man is entitled to it. The Malikis give these rights also to the maternal cousin, and in some of them put him before the paternal one.

• ابن العمة

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a paternal aunt's son by blood as the male blood child of a blood paternal aunt, whether she is a sister of the father by both parents, by the father alone or by the mother alone; by fostering, he is the son of the foster sister of the father. Without qualification the word means the blood relation. The jurists agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female who are not mahrams: the duty of kinship applies to him, he may marry his maternal cousin, and maintenance is not due from him unless he is an heir, with differences and detail on this. The jurists treat the rules in inheritance, the funeral prayer, marriage and maintenance.

• ابن البنت

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a daughter's son by blood as the male blood child of a blood daughter; by fostering, he is one in whom the foster tie takes the place of the blood tie; and without qualification the word means the blood relation. The jurists agree that he is not included in the word my children in a waqf; they differ on whether he is included in the words children of my children, my offspring, my descendants and my issue. They agree that he is a mahram, and the rules of mahrams apply to him, including the prohibition of marrying his grandmother and the permission to keep company with her and travel with her. They agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female, with rules in inheritance, exclusion, guardianship, custody, maintenance, the revocation of a gift and liability for offences.

• ابن الابن

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a son's son as the male first descendant of a son, by blood or by fostering; when used without qualification the word means the blood relation. He is called a grandson (hafid), and the word son is used of him figuratively, and likewise of a son's son's son however far down. The jurists agree that he is an agnate: the higher son excludes him, and he excludes those below him. He makes agnates of his sisters and of his paternal female cousins who stand level with him, and he makes agnate those above him among his paternal aunts when they have no fixed share as daughters. The jurists differ on whether he may contract his grandmother in marriage: the majority say he may, and the Shafi'is disagree.

• ابن الخال

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a maternal uncle's son as the son of the mother's brother. He is either a blood cousin, which is the meaning when used alone, or a foster cousin. The jurists agree that he is within the non-prohibited kin, so the rules for those who are not mahrams apply to him: marriage to him is permitted, a woman may not be alone with him, and maintenance is not due from him unless he is an heir. They also agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female, with rules in inheritance, leading the funeral prayer, the bond of kinship and guardianship.

• ابن الخالة

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a maternal aunt's son by blood as the male blood child of a blood sister of the mother; by fostering, he is one in whom the foster tie takes the place of the blood tie. The word child covers male and female; the word son covers only the male. The jurists agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female who are not mahrams: the duty of kinship, permission to marry, the prohibition of being alone with them, and no duty of maintenance unless he is an heir apply to him. They agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female, with special rules in inheritance, leading the funeral prayer and guardianship; the jurists treat this in marriage when they require a guardian.

• ابن الأخت

  The Kuwaiti encyclopedia defines a sister's son by blood as the male blood child of a blood sister, in three kinds: the son of a full sister, of a paternal sister and of a maternal sister. By fostering, he is the male child a blood sister suckled. The jurists agree that he is a mahram kinsman among those with blood-ties through a female, so the rules of mahrams apply to him: marriage to him is forbidden, women may enter upon him, and they may look at him within the permitted limits; the rules on cutting the hand for theft are treated in the books according to the jurists' detail. The jurists also agree that he is among those with blood-ties through a female, with special rules in inheritance, maintenance, the right to lead the funeral prayer, guardianship and the bond of kinship. They differ on whether the maternal aunt comes before the father in custody of her sister's son.

• عدت

  Iddah in fiqh is the waiting period a woman observes after divorce or widowhood before she may remarry; the Kuwaiti Fiqh Encyclopedia treats it across its chapters, from the term of the iddah to the supervening iddah and residence in the iddah home.

• ادلاء (نسب کے ذریعے تعلق، وراثت اور حضانت میں ترتیب)

  ادلاء لغت میں کنویں میں ڈول اتارنے کو کہتے ہیں، پھر ہر اتارنے کے لیے استعمال ہونے لگا۔ فقہاء اسے زیادہ تر وراثت اور حضانت میں اس نسبی تعلق کے لیے بولتے ہیں جو آدمی کو میت یا زیرِ حضانت بچے سے جوڑتا ہے۔ جو براہِ راست تعلق رکھے وہ اس پر مقدم ہے جو کسی اور کے واسطے سے تعلق رکھے، اور جو دو جہتوں سے تعلق رکھے وہ اس پر مقدم ہے جو ایک جہت سے رکھے۔

• عفت

  In the lexicon, iffa is restraint from what is unlawful or unbecoming; a man or woman is chaste when he or she refrains from forbidden things. The word ihsan (protection or chastity) has four senses: chastity, marriage, freedom and Islam, and is wider than chastity. Islam guards human dignity, so begging is forbidden to one who has enough, and permitted to the truly needy within limits. Believers are praised for chastity and forbidden to approach what leads to adultery; the means of chastity are marriage for those able to bear its cost and fasting for those who cannot. The jurists hold that one who can afford marriage, whose desire is strong, and who fears adultery must marry. They differ on whether a man must provide chastity for his ascendants and descendants. The majority hold that one partner's adultery does not bar the chaste from marrying the other; the Hanbalis require, for a woman, that her waiting period end and that she repent.

• إخدام

  Ikhdam means, in the lexicon, giving a servant. The majority of jurists hold that a husband must provide a servant for his wife if she is of a class that is served, or else maintain the servant she brings with her. The servant of a wife is treated under maintenance, and that of a bankrupt or an imprisoned debtor under bankruptcy.

• اختلاف الدين

  Difference of religion brings rulings: the bar to inheritance, the bar to guardianship in marriage between Islam and unbelief, marriage with a woman of the book, the Hanafi bar to a man's custody, the child's following the better parent in religion, the bar to bearing blood-money between Muslim and unbeliever, and the bar to kin maintenance except ascendants and descendants according to the Hanbalis.. On bequests, partnership and slander: a bequest between a Muslim and a dhimmi is valid by the majority; partnership between Muslim and unbeliever is valid with conditions by the Malikis and Hanbalis; no hadd on a Muslim who slanders an unbeliever, but a dhimmi who slanders a Muslim is flogged..

• اختلاط

  Ikhtilat is joining one thing to another; its ruling varies with its effect: forbidden where lawful and forbidden are combined, a matter for search where pure and impure are mixed, a liability in a deposit, and voiding a bequest where the bequeathed thing is mixed; in the mixing of men and women what involves seclusion, display or amusement is forbidden, and it is lawful for a lawful need within the rules of the law..

• الإكسال

  Iksal is intercourse in which the man's member goes slack after penetration, so he does not ejaculate. It does not change the rulings on intercourse. By the majority view, penetration without ejaculation is enough for the condition of marriage (ihsan), for the return of a husband who swore off intercourse, for curing impotence, and for making a triply divorced woman lawful to her former husband, because the tasting in the hadith is intercourse. Al-Hasan al-Basri required ejaculation, and Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab held that the contract alone sufficed.

• الإملاك

  Imlak means marriage and the marriage contract. The wedding feast of the contract is a sunna for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis, and accepting the invitation to it is a sunna for the Shafi'is; for the Shafi'is one feast is enough, with the feast of consummation.

• عنہ (نامردی)

  In the jurists' usage, 'inna is the inability to have intercourse through the front passage while the organ is sound; the man is called 'anin for the softness and bending of his organ. Impotence is a defect that gives the wife the right to ask for separation, according to the majority; the judge gives the husband a lunar year from the day of the claim, after the practice of 'Umar. The time is not counted while a lawful barrier stops intercourse, such as menstruation, fasting, sickness, pilgrimage or travel, on the detail set by each school. Impotence is established by the husband's admission, by his oath, or by evidence before the judge; the judge or his deputy takes the decision. If the year ends without consummation, the wife chooses; the Hanafis hold the separation is an irrevocable divorce, the Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold it an annulment, and the Malikis draw distinctions. The wife is due the full dower according to the Malikis and, in general, the Hanafis; she observes a waiting period, which the Hanafis, Hanbalis and Malikis hold as a precaution.

• الانتساب

  Intisab in the lexical sense is ascribing oneself to a father, a tribe, a town or a craft. Ascription to one's true father is obligatory when true, and to any other is forbidden; adoption is forbidden. A freed slave is ascribed by clientage, and the Hanafis allow a contract of allegiance by which a convert takes a patron; ascription to a craft, a tribe or a town is permitted. The child of a lian is attached to his mother.

• اربہ (حاجت: غیر اولی الاربہ مرد اور عورتوں کی طرف دیکھنے کے احکام)

  فقہ میں اربہ حاجت کو کہتے ہیں، خاص کر عورتوں کی حاجت۔ غیر اولی الاربہ وہ مرد ہیں جو گھر کے تابع ہوں اور جنہیں عورتوں کی حاجت نہ ہو، کمزوری، سمجھ کی کمی یا فقر کی وجہ سے، اور فقہاء کا ان کے تعین میں اختلاف ہے۔ حنفیہ کے راجح قول کے مطابق خصی، مجبوب، بوڑھا، غلام، معتوہ اور اسی طرح کے لوگ غیر محرم عورت کو دیکھنے میں مرد کی طرح ہیں، جبکہ جمہور کے نزدیک ایسے مرد زینت کے مقامات دیکھنے میں محرم کی طرح ہیں۔

• عرض

  In the lexicon, ird means the self and the lineage: a person of clean honour is one free from blemish, and the plural is a'rad. When the word is paired with self, blood or property, it means only lineage, and lineage is the usual sense in the jurists' use of the word. Lineage, for the jurists, is the distinction inherited from forebears and the nobility of descent. The law protects life, honour and property, and prescribes punishments and retaliation for them; the jurists agree that defending self, honour and property against an aggressor is lawful. They agree that defending honour in the sense of chastity is obligatory, and that whoever abandons it commits a sin. Where a man finds another committing adultery with his wife and kills him, the jurists hold that there is neither retaliation nor blood-money. On defence, the majority require defending oneself and permit defending property, while some permit both.

• عرس

  In the lexicon, irs is the marriage arrangement and the building of the home; some say it is the name of the wedding feast alone. Arus denotes both bride and groom while they are at their wedding, and zifaf is the handing over of the bride to her husband, a narrower word than irs. The Malikis and Shafi'is hold that the bridegroom may not leave congregational prayer and works of piety during the wedding days except at night; the Hanbalis allow him to stay with his bride to be at ease with her. The wedding feast (walima) is prescribed by consensus; for most jurists it is a confirmed sunna, but accepting the invitation to it is obligatory. Congratulating the couple and praying for them is recommended, and the Shafi'is disliked the saying 'with harmony and children'. The husband is recommended to take his bride by the forelock and pray, and the marriage is to be announced with the drum. On the division of nights, the majority give a new bride seven nights if she is a virgin and three if she is a widow or divorcee, with disagreement.

• ارث (میراث: علم الفرائض، اس کی مشروعیت، تدریجی نزول، ترکہ اور اس کے قرض)

  فقہ میں ارث وہ قابل تقسیم حق ہے جو صاحبِ حق کی موت کے بعد اس کے مستحق کو کسی رشتہ داری یا اس جیسی بنیاد پر منتقل ہوتا ہے؛ اس کا علم علم الفرائض ہے، جو دینی ارکان کے بعد سب سے اہم علوم میں سے ہے، اور قرآن، سنت اور اجماع سے مشروع ہے۔ جاہلیت کے لوگ نسب، حلف اور تبنیٰ سے وارث بنتے تھے، جو بعد میں منسوخ ہوا۔ جمہور کے نزدیک ترکہ وہ مال اور حقوق ہیں جو میت چھوڑ گیا، اور مالکیہ و شافعیہ کے نزدیک اس میں سے پہلے مخصوص چیزوں سے متعلق قرض ادا ہوتے ہیں۔

• عشرت (ازدواجی رفاقت)

  In the lexicon, ishra is companionship and mingling; ashir is a near kinsman or friend, and a wife's ashir is her husband. As a term it is the affection and union between spouses. The Hanafis and Hanbalis hold that spouses' good companionship is recommended, while the Malikis hold it obligatory in conscience but not enforceable in court. Good companionship means fulfilling each one's rights in full with good conduct. The husband's rights include the wife's surrender of herself for intercourse, her obedience in what is not sinful, the enjoyment of her, her cleanliness and grooming, her not admitting unwanted guests or leaving the house without his leave; the majority hold that service is not obligatory on her, while the Hanafis hold it obligatory in conscience. The wife's rights include the dower, maintenance, the husband's intercourse with her, and night-sharing or equal division where he has more than one wife, on which the jurists differ in detail. Companionship, enjoyment and inheritance are shared rights.

• عصمت

  In the lexicon, ismah is the act of preventing and protecting; the jurists also use it of the marriage bond, as in the Qur'anic reference to the bonds with unbelieving women. As a term it has three senses: the protection God gives a person from sins; the protection that makes a person and his property sacred, so that retaliation or compensation is due on violating it; and the protection that makes violating it sinful without retaliation or compensation. The text states that the messengers are protected from sins after their mission, and that on their prior state the sound view it records is that they were free of every defect. Sacredness of life and property is gained by the testimony of faith, and by a covenant of protection such as a treaty or safe-conduct. The marriage bond ends by annulment, as for apostasy or defect, or by divorce; the husband normally holds the power of divorce, and a wife holds it when he delegates it to her or when she stipulated it.

• الاسترضاع في البادية

  The custom of the settled Arabs of seeking wet-nurses in the desert for their children, to keep them from the diseases of the towns, strengthen their bodies and nerves, and let them master pure Arabic from the cradle; by it the Prophet was nursed among Banu Sa'd ibn Bakr by Halima.

• أشكال الزواج الأربعة

  Four pagan marriage forms — common, istibda‘ (lending a wife for a better lineage), communal paternity assignment, and wife-swapping (al-badal) — Islam abolished all but the first.

• الجنين

  Janin in the language is the child in the womb. In fiqh it names what forms in the womb. The Kuwaiti encyclopedia sets out its effect on the waiting period (iddah) of a pregnant woman, on inheritance and on gifts and bequests made for it, the rule for an assault on the unborn that causes miscarriage (a ghurra, which the source gives as one-twentieth of the blood-money, according to the majority), and how a stillborn child is washed, shrouded, prayed over and buried, with the rules depending on whether it was born alive, moved, or was a miscarriage of less than four months.

• جہاز

  Jihaz in the language is what a fighter or traveller needs, and what a bride takes to her husband. In fiqh, equipping the registered fighters is an obligation on the Muslims through the public treasury. The bride owns her own trousseau, and jurists generally hold that she is not obliged to furnish it from her dower.

• جوار

  Jiwar in fiqh covers the rights a neighbour has over a neighbour. The Shafi'is and Hanbalis set the limit of neighbourhood at forty houses on each side. The encyclopedia treats shared walls and their use, screens against sight from roofs and windows, rights of passage along a public watercourse, pre-emption for an adjoining neighbour, which the Hanafis accept and others limit, and how the rights of neighbours restrict what an owner may do with his property.

• کفاءت (نکاح میں برابری)

  نکاح میں کفاءت وہ مخصوص برابری ہے جو عار کو دور کرتی ہے۔ اس کی خصلتیں دین، نسب، آزادی، پیشہ، مال اور عیوب سے سلامتی ہیں، اور فقہاء ہر ایک میں مختلف ہیں۔ یہ عورت اور اس کے اولیاء کا حق ہے؛ اس کا اعتبار عقد کے وقت ہوتا ہے، اور اکثر فقہاء کے نزدیک یہ نکاح کے لازم رہنے کے لیے ہے، صحت کے لیے نہیں۔ حنفیہ اور حنابلہ اسے مرد کی طرف سے واجب کہتے ہیں، جبکہ ابو یوسف اور محمد عورت کی طرف سے بھی معتبر کہتے ہیں۔ عورت اور اولیاء کی رضا سے یہ ساقط ہو جاتی ہے، اور اس کی کمی پر فسخ کا حق ہے، جس میں مذاہب کا اختلاف ہے کہ نکاح باطل ہے یا قابلِ فسخ۔

• کفارہ

  کفارہ لغت میں ڈھانپنے سے ہے، اور شرعاً بعض گناہوں اور شرعی خلاف ورزیوں کی جبری تلافی ہے، جس میں سزا اور عبادت دونوں کا پہلو ہے۔ اس کا ایک سبب قسم توڑنا ہے، جو قسم کھانے پر نہیں بلکہ توڑنے پر واجب ہوتا ہے؛ یمین غموس اور لغو میں اختلاف ہے، اسی طرح ایک بات پر کئی قسموں کے کفارے کی تعداد اور حنث سے پہلے کفارہ دینے میں اختلاف ہے۔ دوسرا سبب قتل ہے: خطا اور شبہِ عمد میں اتفاق ہے، عمد، قتل بالتسبب اور جنین میں اختلاف ہے۔ اس کے بعد رمضان کے روزے کا توڑنا، حج اور احرام کے محظورات، ظہار کا کفارہ، اور کفاروں کی شرائط اور خصلتیں آتی ہیں۔

• کلالہ (فقہی)

  کلالہ لغت میں کلال سے ہے، یعنی تھکن اور قوت کا جانا، اور کہا گیا ہے کہ یہ اکلیل سے ہے جس کے معنی گھیرنے کے ہیں ۔ اصطلاح میں اہلِ علم کا اختلاف ہے: بعض کے نزدیک یہ ان وارثوں کا نام ہے جو میت کے والدین اور اولاد کے علاوہ ہوں، اور ایک گروہ کے نزدیک یہ اس میت کا نام ہے جس کا نہ باپ ہو نہ بیٹا، کیونکہ نسب اسے دونوں طرف سے گھیرے ہوئے ہوتا ہے؛ ایک روایت میں ہے کہ نبی سے کلالہ کے بارے میں پوچھا گیا تو فرمایا: جو اس حال میں مرے کہ نہ اس کی اولاد ہو نہ والد ۔ راغب نے اسے میت کا نام قرار دیا اور دونوں معانی کو درست کہا ۔

• گندنا (کراث)

  کراث ایک معروف سبزی ہے جس کی بو ناگوار ہوتی ہے، اور یہ لہسن، پیاز اور مولی سے الگ ہے۔ فقہاء کا اتفاق ہے کہ پیاز، لہسن، کراث اور مولی جیسی تیز بو والی چیزیں کھانا جماعت سے پیچھے رہنے کا عذر ہے جب بو زائل ہونا ممکن نہ ہو، حضرت جابر کی حدیث کی بنیاد پر۔ جمہور کے نزدیک مسجد جانے کا ارادہ نہ ہو تب بھی اسے کھانا مکروہ ہے، اور شوہر بیوی کو ایسی چیزوں کے کھانے سے روک سکتا ہے۔ کراث کے سلم میں مالکیہ اور شافعیہ جواز کے قائل ہیں جبکہ حنفیہ منع کرتے ہیں، اور پکنے کے بعد بیع کا جواز عام طور پر تسلیم کیا گیا ہے۔

• کھولنا (کشف)

  کشف لغت میں پردہ ہٹانا ہے، اور فقہ میں اس کا تعلق ستر کھولنے سے ہے۔ نماز میں ستر ڈھانپنا صحتِ نماز کی شرط ہے، اور بالغ عاقل شخص کا دوسروں کے سامنے اپنا ستر کھولنا حرام ہے، جس میں مغلظہ زیادہ سخت ہے۔ میاں بیوی کے درمیان اور ضرورت یا حاجت (علاج، ختنہ، گواہی) میں بقدرِ حاجت کھولنا مستثنیٰ ہے۔ خلوت میں کھولنے میں اختلاف ہے: جمہور بلا حاجت منع کرتے ہیں اور بعض معمولی غرض کے لیے جائز کہتے ہیں۔ بعض فقہاء کے نزدیک احرام کی حالت میں مرد سر اور عورت چہرہ کھولے گی۔

• توڑنا (کسر)

  کسر لغت میں کسی چیز کو توڑنا اور اس کے اجزاء کو الگ کرنا ہے؛ فقہ میں محفوظ الدم شخص کی ہڈی توڑنا ہے، اور یہ حرام ہے۔ دانت توڑنے میں شرائط قصاص پوری ہوں اور مزید نقصان کا خوف نہ ہو تو قصاص واجب ہے۔ دوسری ہڈیوں میں فقہاء کا اختلاف ہے: حنفیہ، شافعیہ اور حنابلہ قصاص کے قائل نہیں، جبکہ مالکیہ غیر خطرناک صورت میں قصاص جاری کرتے ہیں۔ ہڈی توڑنے میں مقرر ارش نہیں بلکہ حکومت (تخمینی تاوان) ہے، اگرچہ بعض ہڈیوں کے لیے مخصوص اونٹوں کی تعداد مقرر کی گئی ہے۔ باجا، شراب کے برتن اور صلیب توڑنے پر ضمان میں اختلاف ہے۔ میراث میں سہام کا کسر ہو تو اصل مسئلہ کو ایسے عدد سے ضرب دے کر صحیح کیا جاتا ہے کہ ہر وارث کو صحیح حصہ ملے۔

• غصہ ضبط کرنا

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے نزدیک غصہ ضبط کرنا اللہ کے ہاں بڑے مرتبے کا عمل ہے، معافی اس کا پھل ہے، خطا کار پر صبر اصل امتحان ہے، اور ضبط نہ ہونے والا غصہ گھر برباد کر سکتا ہے ۔

• کنایہ (فقہی)

  کنایہ لغت میں ایسی بات کرنا ہے جس سے کسی اور چیز کی طرف اشارہ ہو، جیسے رفث اور غائط؛ اصطلاح میں یہ وہ کلام ہے جس کی مراد استعمال کی وجہ سے چھپی ہو، اگرچہ لغوی معنی ظاہر ہو، لہٰذا اس میں نیت یا اس کے قائم مقام دلالتِ حال درکار ہے ۔

• لباس کی ذمہ داری (کسوہ)

  کسوہ لغت میں اس لباس کو کہتے ہیں جس سے آدمی ڈھانپتا ہے۔ جب بیوی شوہر کو اپنے آپ پر واجب طریقے سے قدرت دے تو شوہر پر اس کا لباس واجب ہے، اور وہ رشتہ دار جس کا نفقہ واجب ہو اس کا لباس بھی خوشحالی کی صورت میں واجب ہے، اور قسم کے کفارے میں دس مسکینوں کو لباس دینا ہے۔ حنفیہ شوہر کے حال کے مطابق لباس طے کرتے ہیں، شافعیہ اور حنابلہ کفایت کے مطابق، اور مالکیہ سال میں دو موسموں کے حساب سے۔ شوہر لباس نہ دے سکے تو مالکیہ، شافعیہ کے اظہر قول اور حنابلہ کے نزدیک بیوی فسخ کر سکتی ہے، جبکہ حنفیہ کے نزدیک قاضی لباس مقرر کرے گا اور بیوی قرض لے گی۔ نہ دینے کی صورت میں بقایا قرض بن جاتا ہے۔

• راز کی حفاظت

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے نزدیک رازوں کی حفاظت اولین امانتوں میں سے ہے۔ وہ گھروں اور مجلسوں کے راز پھیلانے پر تنقید کرتے ہیں، اور ابوبکر و عمر کے راز کی حفاظت کے واقعے کا ذکر کرتے ہیں ۔

• کفر

  کفر لغت میں ڈھانپنے کو کہتے ہیں، اور شرعاً دینِ محمد کی کسی ضروری بات کا انکار۔ یہ سب سے بڑا گناہ ہے، اور آخرت میں اس کی سزا ہمیشہ کا جہنم ہے۔ جو شخص مجبور ہو کر کلمۂ کفر کہے وہ کافر نہیں اگر دل ایمان پر مطمئن ہو، اور صبر بہتر ہے۔ کفار کو فروعِ شریعت کا مخاطب ماننے میں تین اقوال ہیں؛ مسلمانوں پر لازم ہے کہ قتال سے پہلے کفار کو اسلام کی دعوت دیں۔ اسلام لانے سے حقوقِ اللہ ساقط ہو جاتے ہیں، جبکہ جو حقوق العباد ان کی رضا سے تھے وہ باقی رہتے ہیں۔ کتاب میں کفار کی نجاست، مسجد میں داخلہ، ولایت، نکاح، وصیت، اجارہ، شرکت، وقف اور جہاد میں ان سے مدد کے احکام بھی ہیں۔

• کفو (ہم پلہ)

  کفو لغت میں ہم مثل اور برابر کو کہتے ہیں، اور نکاح میں وہ شخص جو عورت کا شوہر بننے کے لائق ہو۔ جمہور کے نزدیک جن اولیاء کو جبری نکاح کا اختیار ہے ان پر لازم ہے کہ عورت کی شادی کفو سے کریں، اور جس ولی کو جبر کا اختیار نہ ہو اس کے لیے بغیر رضا کے غیر کفو سے نکاح جائز نہیں۔ عورت کی رضا سے غیر کفو میں نکاح جائز ہے۔ اگر عورت کسی کفو کا مطالبہ کرے اور ولی انکار کرے تو وہ عاضل ہے اور قاضی اس کی جگہ نکاح کرے گا۔

• کنیت (فقہی احکام)

  کنیت وہ نام ہے جو اب (باپ) یا ام (ماں) سے شروع ہو، جیسے ابو عبد اللہ یا ام الخیر؛ جرجانی نے ابن یا بنت کا اضافہ کیا۔ یہ اسم اور لقب کے علاوہ ایک نام ہے جو صاحبِ نام کی تعظیم کے لیے ان کے ساتھ یا تنہا استعمال ہوتا ہے، اور یہ معزز لوگوں کے لیے ہے؛ عربوں میں کنیتیں اتنی مشہور تھیں کہ بعض اوقات اسموں پر غالب آ گئیں، جیسے ابو طالب اور ابو لہب ۔

• ناپسندیدگی (کُرہ)

  کُرہ لغت میں مشقت ہے اور محبت کی ضد ہے۔ یہ دو قسم کا ہے: وہ جس سے طبیعت گھبراتی ہے، اور وہ جس سے عقل یا شرع گھبراتی ہے۔ یہ واجب بھی ہو سکتا ہے، جیسے کفر اور گناہ سے نفرت؛ حرام بھی، جیسے اسلام، رسول یا صحابہ کی فضیلت کی وجہ سے ان سے بغض؛ اور مباح بھی، جیسے گناہ پر مشتمل تقدیر کو ناپسند کرنا جبکہ اس تقدیر پر راضی رہا جائے۔ اسلام یا رسول سے نفرت کفر ہے، اور انصار و صحابہ سے دین کی نصرت کی وجہ سے نفرت بھی کفر ہے۔ امامت میں جس شخص کو اکثر مقتدی بجا طور پر ناپسند کریں اس کا امامت کرنا مکروہ ہے۔ شوہر ایسی بیوی پر صبر کر سکتا ہے جسے وہ عیب کی وجہ سے ناپسند کرے بشرطیکہ فحش نہ ہو، اور بیوی ایسے شوہر سے خلع لے سکتی ہے جس کے ساتھ اسے خوف ہو کہ حدود اللہ قائم نہ کر سکے گی۔

• لحاق (نسب کا ملحق ہونا)

  لحاق لغت میں ادراک کو کہتے ہیں؛ کہا جاتا ہے لحقہ یعنی اس کو پا لیا۔ قائف نے بچے کو باپ کے ساتھ ملایا یعنی اس نے ایسی مشابہت کی بنا پر بتایا کہ یہ اس کا بیٹا ہے؛ اور استلحاق کا مطلب دعویٰ کرنا ہے ۔ اصطلاح میں استلحاق یہ ہے کہ آدمی دعویٰ کرے کہ یہ بچہ اس کا باپ ہے، اور یہ لحاق سے خاص ہے ۔

• لمس (فقہی احکام)

  لمس لغت میں جسم کو چھونا اور ظاہری جلد کے ذریعے جاننا ہے، جیسے مس، اور جماع سے کنایہ بھی ہے، اور مباشرت بھی بشرتین کے ملنے کو کہتے ہیں؛ اصطلاح میں لمس کسی جسم کو دوسرے جسم سے کسی غرض سے ملانا ہے، جیسے گرمی، سردی، سختی، نرمی یا حقیقت جاننا؛ مس ہر طرح کے ملنے کو کہتے ہیں، اس لیے لمس مس سے خاص ہے ۔

• لقیط (فقہی احکام)

  لقیط لغت میں اس بچے کو کہتے ہیں جو راستوں میں پڑا ملے اور جس کے باپ اور ماں کا پتہ نہ ہو؛ حنفیہ کے نزدیک یہ زندہ پیدا ہونے والا وہ بچہ ہے جسے اس کے گھر والوں نے تنگدستی کے خوف یا تہمت سے بچنے کے لیے چھوڑ دیا؛ مالکیہ کے نزدیک جس کا باپ اور آزادی کی حالت معلوم نہ ہو؛ شافعیہ کے نزدیک ہر گم شدہ بچہ جس کا کوئی کفیل نہ ہو؛ حنابلہ کے نزدیک غیر ممیز بچہ جس کا نسب اور حیثیت معلوم نہ ہو۔ لقطہ اس سے عام ہے، کیونکہ وہ غیر انسان کو بھی شامل ہے ۔

• تھپڑ مارنا (فقہی احکام)

  لطم لغت میں ہتھیلی پھیلا کر رخسار پر مارنا ہے، اور ایک بار کو لطمہ کہتے ہیں، اور فقہاء یہی معنی لیتے ہیں؛ صفع گدی پر ہتھیلی سے مارنا ہے، اور وکز مٹھی بند کر کے دھکا دینا یا مارنا ہے ۔

• لعان (میاں بیوی کا لعان، فقہی احکام)

  لعان لغت میں لعن سے مصدر ہے، یعنی خیر سے دوری اور دور کرنا، اور کہا گیا کہ اللہ کی طرف سے دور کرنا، اور مخلوق کی طرف سے گالی؛ حنفیہ اور حنابلہ کے نزدیک یہ میاں بیوی کے درمیان قسموں سے مؤکد گواہیاں ہیں جن میں شوہر کی طرف سے لعنت اور بیوی کی طرف سے غضب کا ذکر ہوتا ہے؛ مالکیہ کے نزدیک شوہر کا زنا یا حمل کی نفی پر چار قسمیں کھانا اور بیوی کا تکذیب کی قسمیں کھانا؛ شافعیہ کے نزدیک معین کلمات؛ اور یہ حد قذف دفع کرنے یا نسب کی نفی کے لیے ضروری حجت ہے ۔

• عورت کا لباس (فقہی احکام)

  لباس وہ ہے جو جسم کو ڈھانپے؛ جمع البسہ اور لُبُس ہے۔ میاں بیوی ایک دوسرے کا لباس ہیں، جیسا کہ سورۂ بقرہ (آیت ۱۸۷) میں ہے، جس کا نص یہاں نقل نہیں کیا گیا ۔ زینت لباس سے عام ہے ۔

• لثام (فقہی احکام)

  لثام لغت میں منہ یا ہونٹ پر ڈالے جانے والے نقاب کو کہتے ہیں، جمع لُثُم ہے، تلثم اسے باندھنا ہے، اور ملتم اس کی جگہ ہے یعنی ناک اور اس کے گرد کا حصہ؛ فقہاء کا استعمال بھی لغوی معنی سے الگ نہیں ۔ قناع وہ کپڑا ہے جس سے عورت سر اور چہرے کا بڑا حصہ ڈھانپتی ہے، اور خمار وہ ہے جس سے عورت سر ڈھانپتی ہے ۔

• لبأ (فقہی احکام)

  لبأ لغت میں بچے کی پیدائش کے بعد سب سے پہلے نکلنے والا دودھ ہے؛ ابو زید کے نزدیک یہ عام طور پر تین بار دوہنا اور کم از کم ایک بار ہوتا ہے۔ فصح وہ وقت ہے جب لبأ ختم ہو کر دودھ صاف ہو جائے ۔

• لحوق (نسب کا ثبوت، فقہی احکام)

  لحوق لغت میں ادراک کو کہتے ہیں، اور جو چیز کسی کو پا لے وہ اس کے ساتھ لاحق ہے؛ فقہاء یہ مادہ نسب کے ثبوت، ذمی اور مرتد کے دارالحرب جانے، جانور کے جنین کو ماں کے ساتھ حلت میں لاحق کرنے، زکوٰۃ میں چھوٹے مویشیوں کو ملانے، فروخت کی ضمنی چیزوں کے لحوق، اور اصولیین کے ہاں قیاس کے معنی میں استعمال کرتے ہیں ۔

• مفقود (لاپتہ شخص)

  مفقود وہ غائب ہے جس کی جگہ، زندگی اور موت معلوم نہ ہو اور اس کی خبر منقطع ہو۔ فقدان سے نکاح ختم نہیں ہوتا، بیوی کی عدت میں اختلاف ہے، اور مال، نفقہ، وصیت، وراثت اور واپسی کے احکام بیان ہوتے ہیں۔

• طلاق یافتہ دودھ پلانے والی ماں اور بچے کا نفقہ

  From al-Baqara 2:233 Sha'rawi holds that maintenance and clothing fall on the father, the one to whom the child is born, and that they are owed to divorced nursing mothers rather than to wives in general; that it is measured by custom and nobody is charged beyond capacity; and that the heir bears the same duty if the father dies.

• قبرستان (مَقْبَرَہ)

  مَقْبَرہ وہ جگہ ہے جہاں مردے دفن کیے جاتے ہیں۔ فقہاء نے اس میں نماز، جنازہ، قراءتِ قرآن، سونے، زمین کے انتفاع، درختوں کی ملکیت، حدود، وقف اور قضائے حاجت کے احکام بیان کیے ہیں۔

• مولیٰ الموالاۃ (عہدِ موالات کا مولیٰ)

  مولیٰ الموالاۃ وہ شخص ہے جس کا نسب معلوم نہ ہو اور وہ کسی معروف النسب شخص سے عہدِ موالات باندھے، جس میں وراثت اور دیت (عقل) کا ذکر ہو۔ جمہور کے نزدیک یہ وراثت کا سبب نہیں، جبکہ حنفیہ کے نزدیک یہ مولیٰ العتاقہ کے بعد وراثت کا سبب ہے۔

• مولود (نومولود بچہ)

  مولود وہ بچہ ہے جو مدتِ حمل پوری ہونے پر پیدا ہو، جبکہ سقط وہ ہے جو مدت پوری ہونے سے پہلے گرے۔ زندگی کی علامت رضاعت، استہلال (چیخنا)، حرکت یا سانس سے ثابت ہوتی ہے، اور زندہ پیدا ہونے والا وارث بنتا اور وراثت پاتا ہے۔ جمہور کے نزدیک مرنے پر اسے غسل، کفن، نماز اور دفن دیا جاتا ہے، اور قتل کی صورت میں دیت واجب ہے۔

• ملکِ یمین

  شعراوی کے نزدیک ملکِ یمین کا حکم غلامی کے خاتمے سے جڑا ہے۔ ان کے نزدیک اسلام نے آزادی کے ذرائع بڑھائے، لونڈی کو کھلانا پہنانا اور اس پر طاقت سے زیادہ بوجھ نہ ڈالنا لازم ہے، اور ان کے زمانے میں ایسی ملکیت کا کوئی ذریعہ باقی نہیں ۔

• خواتین کی وراثت

  شعراوی بیان کرتے ہیں کہ آیت «اے ایمان والو! تمہارے لیے جائز نہیں کہ عورتوں کے وارث زبردستی بنو» جاہلیت کی اس رسم کو ختم کرتی ہے جس میں عورتوں کو میراث سے محروم رکھا جاتا تھا، اور وہ کہتے ہیں کہ میراث اس وقت صرف لڑنے والوں کو ملتی تھی ۔

• الشَّهْر

  When the word is used without qualification in law, the month means the lunar month, as the verse of the Repentance (36) says: the number of months with God is twelve, four of them sacred. The months of the pilgrimage are, for most jurists, Shawwal, Dhu al-Qa'da and the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijja; for the Malikis, all of Dhu al-Hijja. A woman who no longer menstruates observes her waiting period in months. Where a thing is hired month by month, the Hanafis and Malikis validate the contract, the Shafi'is void it beyond the first month, and the jurists differ on how a month that does not begin on the first day is counted.

• مفاخذہ (ران سے ران ملانا)

  مفاخذہ کے لغوی معنی ران سے ران ملانا یا عورت کی رانوں کے بیچ یا اوپر بیٹھنا ہے۔ بیوی کے ساتھ احرام، حیض اور نفاس کے سوا حالت میں جائز ہے، غیر عورت کے ساتھ حرام ہے۔ روزے میں انزال ہو تو روزہ ٹوٹ جاتا ہے، ورنہ نہیں؛ جمہور کفارہ واجب نہیں کرتے، مالکیہ کرتے ہیں۔ شافعیہ کے نزدیک اس پر حد نہیں، تعزیر ہے۔

• مفوضہ (بغیر مہر مقرر کیے نکاح)

  مفوضہ وہ عورت ہے جس کا نکاح بغیر مہر کے ذکر کے ہوا ہو، یا جس نے اپنا معاملہ شوہر یا ولی کے سپرد کیا ہو۔ بغیر مہر کا نکاح باتفاق صحیح ہے، اور مالکیہ اور شافعیہ کے وجہ کے مطابق مہر کی نفی کو شرط بنانے سے نکاح باطل ہو جاتا ہے۔

• مغالاة (حد سے تجاوز)

  مغالاۃ کے لغوی معنی کسی چیز میں مبالغہ اور حد سے تجاوز ہیں۔ مہر میں جمہور کے نزدیک کوئی اعلیٰ حد مقرر نہیں، اور ہلکا مہر مستحب ہے۔ کفن میں زیادہ خرچ مکروہ ہے، اور عبادت میں اعتدال اور دین میں غلو سے بچنا مطلوب ہے۔

• مُکافأۃ (برابری اور بدلہ)

  مُکافأۃ کا مطلب بدلہ دینا یا برابری ہے، جیسے مسلمانوں کے خون کا برابر ہونا۔ فقہاء اسے ہدیے کے بدلے، قصاص میں قاتل و مقتول کی برابری، نکاح میں زوجین کی کفو اور دوڑ میں گھوڑوں کی برابری کے ابواب میں ذکر کرتے ہیں۔

• مُقَدِّماتِ جِماع

  مقدماتِ جماع سے مراد بوسہ، لمس اور قربت ہے۔ فقہاء نے ان کے احکام حج، روزے، رجعت، ظہار اور حرمتِ مصاہرت میں بیان کیے ہیں، اور شوہر کے لیے جماع سے پہلے بیوی سے ملاطفت مستحب ہے۔

• مُقاسَمہ (حصہ بندی)

  مُقاسَمہ شریک کے مشترکہ مال کو حصوں میں تقسیم کرنے کو کہتے ہیں۔ فقہاء اسے دادا کی میراث میں بھائیوں کے ساتھ حصہ، زمین کے خراج اور پھل کی تقسیم کے ابواب میں ذکر کرتے ہیں۔

• نفقہ (کفالت اور خرچ)

  نفقہ لغت میں خرچ ہونے والی چیز ہے، اور اصطلاح میں وہ کچھ جو انسان کی معمول کی زندگی کے لیے بغیر اسراف کے ضروری ہو۔ تین اسباب سے واجب ہوتا ہے: نکاح، قرابت اور ملکیت۔ بیوی کا نفقہ شوہر پر قرآن، سنت اور اجماع سے واجب ہے۔ حنفیہ، مالکیہ اور اکثر حنابلہ کے نزدیک کفایت کے مطابق، اور شافعیہ کے معتمد قول میں مقررہ مقدار کے مطابق ہے۔ قرابت داروں کا نفقہ فروع، اصول اور حواشی کے درمیان مذاہب کے اختلاف کے ساتھ واجب ہے۔ غلام کا نفقہ مالک پر، جانور کا نفقہ اس کے مالک پر، اور بے سہارا فقیر کا نفقہ بیت المال پر ہے۔

• نفقات الأقارب

• نہاریات (دن ہی کی شرط پر نکاح)

  نہاریات حنفیہ کے نزدیک وہ عورت ہے جس سے مرد اس شرط پر نکاح کرے کہ وہ دن میں اس کے پاس ہوگا اور رات میں نہیں۔ نکاح صحیح اور شرط فاسد ہے، جو فاسد شرطوں کے نکاح پر اثر کی مثال ہے۔

• نقیعہ (مسافر کی واپسی کی دعوت)

  نقیعہ لغت میں مسافر کی واپسی پر بنایا جانے والا کھانا ہے۔ حنفیہ اور حنابلہ اسے مباح، اور مالکیہ و شافعیہ مندوب کہتے ہیں۔ اس کی دعوت قبول کرنا جمہور کے نزدیک سنت یا مستحب ہے، اور بعض سلف واجب کہتے ہیں، جبکہ مالکیہ ولیمہ کے سوا دعوتوں میں شرکت کو مکروہ کہتے ہیں۔

• ناقصہ مسئلہ (وراثت کی ناقص صورت)

  ناقصہ مسئلہ وہ ہے جس میں ذوی الفروض کے حصے اصل مسئلہ سے کم ہوں اور بچ جانے والا حصہ رد کیا جائے۔ جمہور کے نزدیک مسائل تین ہیں: عادلہ، ناقصہ اور عائلہ۔ تفصیل وراثت کے مضمون میں ہے۔

• نسب (قرابت) اور اس کے اثبات کے طریقے

  نسب کا مطلب قرابت ہے، جو ولادت میں شرکت سے قائم ہوتی ہے۔ نکاح صحیح یا فاسد میں جماع سے، اور شبہ کی صورت میں جمہور کے نزدیک نسب ثابت ہوتا ہے، زنا سے نہیں۔ اقرار، گواہی، شہرت اور قاضی کے فیصلے سے بھی نسب ثابت ہوتا ہے۔ حمل کی کم از کم مدت چھ ماہ ہے۔ نسب کا انکار لعان سے ہوتا ہے۔

• النسب النبوي وأجزاؤه الثلاثة

  al-Raheeq al-Makhtum divides the Prophet's lineage into three parts: one agreed on by the sira and genealogy scholars, up to Adnan; one disputed, between those who suspend judgement and those who affirm it, from Adnan up to Ibrahim; and one that certainly contains unsound matter, from Ibrahim up to Adam.

• نصیب (حصہ) اور اس کے احکام

  نصیب لغت میں کسی چیز کا حصہ اور تقسیم شدہ جزو ہے۔ میراث میں ہر نصیب فرض ہے، مگر ہر فرض نصیب نہیں۔ میراث کے حصص شریعت نے مقرر کیے ہیں، جن کی تفصیل میراث کے عنوان میں ہے۔ شرکت میں شریک کا اپنے حصے میں تصرف اور اس کے ضمان کے احکام میں اختلاف ہے، جمہور کے نزدیک امانت ہونے کی وجہ سے صرف تعدی یا کوتاہی پر ضمان ہے۔ قسمت میں ہر شریک کا حصہ تعیین کے بعد مکمل ملکیت بن جاتا ہے۔ غلام مشترک میں شریک کے آزاد کرنے کے احکام مالداری اور تنگدستی کے اعتبار سے مختلف ہیں۔

• نسل اور اس کے احکام

  نسل کا لغوی معنی اولاد اور ذریت ہے، اور فقہاء انسان یا جانور کی اولاد اور حمل کے لیے بھی یہ لفظ استعمال کرتے ہیں۔ نسل شریعت کے مقاصد میں سے ہے، اور نکاح کا مقصد اس کی بقا ہے۔ خصی کرنا نسل کو منقطع کرتا ہے اس لیے ممنوع ہے، اور عزل میں فقہاء کا اختلاف ہے۔ روح پھونکے جانے کے بعد اسقاطِ حمل کی حرمت پر اتفاق ہے۔ غصب شدہ جانور کا بچہ اس کی ماں کے ساتھ مالک کو لوٹایا جاتا ہے۔

• نظر (دیکھنا) اور اس کے احکام

  نظر لغت میں آنکھ کا دیکھنا یا کسی چیز پر غور کرنا ہے، اور اس سے حفاظت اور غور بھی مراد ہوتا ہے، جبکہ رؤیت اس سے خاص ہے۔ دیکھے جانے والے شخص کے اعتبار سے احکام مختلف ہیں۔ جوان اجنبی عورت کے چہرے اور ہاتھوں کے علاوہ بدن کو دیکھنا بالاتفاق حرام ہے، جبکہ چہرے اور ہاتھوں کے بارے میں چار اقوال ہیں۔ شہوت کے ساتھ دیکھنا ہر صورت حرام ہے، اور محرموں کی زینت کی جگہوں کو بغیر شہوت دیکھنا جائز ہے۔ حاجت (نکاح کی پیشکش، علاج، فیصلہ، گواہی، لین دین اور تعلیم) کے لیے بقدرِ ضرورت دیکھنے کی اجازت ہے، اور بے ارادہ پہلی نظر معاف ہے۔

• لونڈی سے نکاح

  شعراوی بیان کرتے ہیں کہ مومنہ لونڈی سے نکاح کے لیے اس کے مالک کی اجازت لازم ہے، اس کا مہر دستور کے مطابق ادا ہو، اور شادی کے بعد بدکاری کی صورت میں اس کی سزا آزاد شادی شدہ عورت کی سزا کا نصف ہے۔ ان کے مطابق آزاد عورت سے نکاح کی استطاعت رکھنے والا لونڈی سے صرف ضرورت اور گناہ کے خوف کی صورت میں نکاح کرے ۔

• نکاح (فقہ میں)

  لغت میں نکاح کا لفظ وطی اور عقد دونوں کے لیے آتا ہے۔ ہر مذہب نے اپنی تعریف کی ہے: حنفیہ کے نزدیک یہ وہ عقد ہے جو مرد کو عورت سے قصداً استمتاع کا حق دے، مالکیہ کے نزدیک وہ عقد جو غیر محرم عورت سے تمتع کو حلال کرے، شافعیہ کے نزدیک وہ عقد جو لفظ نکاح یا تزویج سے وطی کی اجازت دے، اور حنابلہ کے نزدیک عقد تزویج ۔ فقہاء کی تین آراء ہیں کہ یہ لفظ حقیقتاً وطی ہے، حقیقتاً عقد ہے، یا دونوں کے لیے حقیقت ہے؛ اس اختلاف سے کچھ فروعی احکام بدلتے ہیں، جیسے زنا سے اصول و فروع کی حرمت اور نکاح نہ کرنے کی قسم کا حنث ۔ متعلقہ الفاظ میں خطبہ نکاح سے پہلے کی بات چیت ہے، سفاح نکاح کی ضد ہے، اور طلاق نکاح کے بندھن کو کھولنا ہے ۔ یہ مسودہ جزوی ہے (completeness 0)؛ احکام کی تقسیم، حکمت، ارکان اور صیغہ ابھی شامل نہیں کیے گئے۔

• منہی عنہ نکاح

  منہی عنہ نکاح وہ ہے جس سے شارع نے منع کیا۔ موسوعہ جاہلیت کی اقسام بیان کرتی ہے، جیسے نکاحِ رایات، نکاحِ رہط اور نکاحِ استبضاع، پھر نکاحِ شغار اور اس کے احکام۔ فقہاء شغار کی حرمت پر متفق ہیں اور علت میں مختلف ہیں: مالکیہ کے نزدیک مہر کا نہ ہونا، اور شافعیہ کے اکثر کے نزدیک بضع میں اشتراک۔

• نقاب (چہرہ چھپانا)

  نقاب لغت میں وہ پردہ ہے جو عورت ناک پر ڈال کر چہرہ چھپاتی ہے۔ جمہور کے نزدیک چہرہ عورت کی شرمگاہ نہیں، اس لیے اسے چھپانا اور کھولنا دونوں جائز ہیں، جبکہ مالکیہ نقاب کو ہر حال میں مکروہ کہتے ہیں۔ حالت احرام میں عورت کے لیے نقاب حرام ہے، اور نماز میں جمہور کے نزدیک مکروہ ہے۔ حنفیہ کے نزدیک نقاب والی عورت کا نکاح گواہوں کی شناخت یا اشارے سے درست ہے۔

• نِيابة

  Niyaba in the lexical sense is making another one's deputy in a matter; technically it is one person's standing in for another in an act. It differs from wilaya, qawama, wakala and wasiyya; niyaba is the wider notion. There are two kinds: the contractual, which is agency, and the legal, which is guardianship over those unable to act for themselves through youth or the like. Legal guardianship is over property or over the person. In purely financial worship, such as zakat, expiations and vows, substitution is permitted by agreement; in purely bodily worship, such as prayer and fasting, it is not; in worship of body and wealth, such as the pilgrimage and the lesser pilgrimage, it is permitted under conditions: the principal must be permanently unable and must have funds, and for the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis the deputy must have performed his own pilgrimage first. Pilgrimage on behalf of the dead is treated separately for obligatory and voluntary acts; hiring for the pilgrimage on behalf of the dead is permitted by the Malikis, Shafi'is and in one Hanbali report, and forbidden by the Hanafis. Substitution in sacrifice and in stoning is permitted; the jurists differ on substitution in offices.

• نشوز (ازدواجی نافرمانی) اور اس کے احکام

  نشوز لغت میں بلند ہونے کو کہتے ہیں، اور اصطلاح میں بیوی کا شوہر کی واجب اطاعت سے نکلنا ہے، جبکہ حنفیہ کے نزدیک بغیر حق کے گھر سے نکلنا ہے۔ نشوز حرام ہے۔ نشوز کی بیوی کا نفقہ اور سکنی جمہور فقہاء کے نزدیک ساقط ہو جاتا ہے، اور اطاعت کی طرف لوٹنے پر واپس آ جاتا ہے۔ شوہر وعظ، بستر میں ترک اور غیر شدید مار کے ذریعے تأدیب کر سکتا ہے، اور ترتیب میں اختلاف ہے۔ زوجین کے باہمی شقاق میں حاکم دو حکم مقرر کرتا ہے، جن کی حیثیت وکیل یا حاکم ہونے میں فقہاء کا اختلاف ہے۔

• نطفہ

  نطفہ لغت میں مرد اور عورت کے پانی کو کہتے ہیں، اور تھوڑے پانی کو بھی۔ یہ جنین کا پہلا مرحلہ ہے۔ جمہور فقہاء کے نزدیک نطفہ سے عدت ختم نہیں ہوتی، کیونکہ وہ نہ بچہ ثابت ہوتا ہے اور نہ حمل۔ نفخِ روح سے پہلے نطفہ گرانے کے بارے میں اختلاف ہے، جبکہ نفخِ روح کے بعد حمل گرانا حرام ہے۔ کسی زیادتی سے عورت کا نطفہ ساقط ہو جائے تو جانی پر کوئی ضمان نہیں۔

• تداخل (اسباب یا احکام کا ایک دوسرے میں داخل ہونا)

  Tadakhul is one thing entering another without any addition in size or measure. In the jurists' usage, several causes may be met by one ruling, or several rulings by one act. The schools differ on where it operates, causes or rulings: the Hanafis place it in causes for acts of worship and in rulings for penalties. It is discussed in purification, prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, expiation, waiting periods, injuries and blood-money, fixed penalties, the jizya and the arithmetic of inheritance.

• الشَّلَل

  Shalal is the corruption of a limb and the loss of its movement; the loss of feeling entirely is not required. Several rulings attach to it. The Malikis and Hanbalis limit breach of ablution by touch to touch with desire. A paralysed person prays with whatever pillars he can perform: if he cannot stand he prays seated, and if he cannot bow or prostrate he signals with his head. A sound hand is not cut for a paralysed hand; the paralysed hand carries a fair assessment of damages, and paralysis of the male organ gives the wife the right to annul the marriage.

• الشُّفْعة

  Shufa is the compelled taking of property by the buyer's price from the new purchaser, or a right of compulsory acquisition that belongs to the old partner over what has come into another's ownership for a consideration. It is established by the sunna and by consensus, on the basis of a report of Jabir that pre-emption applies to what has not been divided, and of the purpose of lifting harm from partners. The jurists agree it belongs to a co-owner with an undivided share in the property, so long as it is not divided; they differ on whether it applies to things that cannot be divided, to neighbours, and to rights attached to the sold thing. The Hanafis give it to an adjoining neighbour and a partner in rights; the majority deny it to neighbours.

• الحالة السياسية في العرب قبل الإسلام

  al-Raheeq al-Makhtum's picture of rule in Arabia at the rise of Islam: crowned but dependent kings in Yemen, al-Hira and al-Sham, and independent tribal chiefs in the interior with a king's authority; the tribe as a miniature government founded on asabiyya, its chief entitled to the quarter, the choice share, the roadside booty and the remainder; the frontier regions in decay between masters and slaves, the inland tribes fragmented with no king, and the religious government of the Hijaz respected but weak.

• قضا اور دیانت

  شعراوی قضائی فیصلے (جو گواہی اور ثبوت پر مبنی ہو) اور دیانت کے حکم (جو بندے اور اللہ کے درمیان ہو) میں فرق کرتے ہیں۔ ان کے مطابق اگر مقروض ادا کر چکا ہو تو وارث دوبارہ مطالبہ نہیں کر سکتے، اور اللہ کا حلم کسی کام کے جائز ہونے کی دلیل نہیں ۔

• دوپہر کی نیند (قیلولہ)

  لغت میں قیلولہ دن کے وسط میں سونے کو کہتے ہیں، اور فقہاء اس لفظ کو اسی معنی میں لیتے ہیں یعنی زوال سے پہلے یا دوپہر کے قریب کی نیند۔ یہ نیند مستحب ہے، اور اس کی علت بیان کی گئی ہے کہ شیاطین قیلولہ نہیں کرتے، اور یہ رات کی نماز میں مدد دیتی ہے جیسے سحری روزے میں مدد دیتی ہے۔ دوپہر ان تین اوقات میں سے ایک ہے جن میں لوگ عموماً بے پردگی میں ہوتے ہیں، اور قرآن نے ان اوقات میں داخل ہونے سے پہلے اجازت لینے کا حکم دیا؛ صحابہ کا اختلاف ہے کہ یہ حکم باقی ہے یا منسوخ۔

• قیّم

  اصطلاح میں قیّم وہ شخص ہے جسے حاکم اس شخص کی وصیت پر عمل کے لیے مقرر کرے جس نے کسی کو وصی نہ بنایا ہو، یا نابالغ، مجنون اور سفیہ کے معاملات سنبھالنے کے لیے، یا ایسے غائب شخص کے مال کی حفاظت کے لیے جس کا کوئی وکیل نہ ہو۔ اس کی ولایت باپ، دادا اور ان کے وصیوں کے بعد آتی ہے۔ حاکم اس کے تصرف کو اسی حد تک محدود رکھتا ہے جس کی اس نے اجازت دی ہو، جمہور کے نزدیک وہ اپنے لیے خرید نہیں سکتا، اور حاکم اسے معزول کر سکتا ہے، مگر اصل وصی کو نہیں۔

• ربیبہ (سوتیلی بیٹی)

  ربیبہ سوتیلی بیٹی ہے؛ ماں سے دخول ہو جائے تو وہ حرام ہو جاتی ہے، اور اس کی بیٹیاں بالاجماع حرام ہیں۔

• رضاع (دودھ پلانا)

  رضاع بچے کو عورت کا دودھ پلانا ہے؛ پانچ دفعہ دودھ پینے سے رشتہ کی حرمت ثابت ہوتی ہے (شافعی و حنبلی)، جبکہ حنفی و مالکی ہر تعداد کو کافی سمجھتے ہیں۔ دودھ پلانے کی مدت دو سال ہے۔

• بو (فقہی احکام)

  رائحہ سے مراد نسیم ہے، خواہ خوشبو ہو یا بدبو، اور اس کے احکام ابواب کے لحاظ سے مختلف ہیں۔

• رجعت

  رجعت طلاقِ رجعی دی ہوئی بیوی کو عدت کے اندر بغیر نئے نکاح کے واپس زوجیت میں لانا ہے۔ اس کی شرائط میں طلاق رجعی، دخول، عدت کے اندر ہونا اور فوری ہونا شامل ہیں۔

• مرد

  رجل سے مراد بالغ مرد ہے؛ مردوں کے لیے ریشم اور سونا حرام ہے، اور اذان، امامت اور جمعہ کے کچھ احکام انہی سے مخصوص ہیں۔

• گردن (رقبہ)

  رقبہ گردن کو کہتے ہیں اور غلام کے معنی میں بھی آتا ہے، جیسے گردن آزاد کرنا۔ طلاق کو گردن کی طرف منسوب کرنے سے طلاق واقع ہوتی ہے۔

• رقم (قیمت کا نشان)

  رقم کپڑے یا سامان پر لکھی قیمت کی علامت ہے؛ دونوں کے علم کے ساتھ اس پر بیع درست ہے، اور لاعلمی میں جمہور کے نزدیک بیع فاسد ہے۔

• رتق (فرج کی بندش)

  رتق فرج کی بندش ہے؛ اس کی بنیاد پر شوہر کو نکاح فسخ کرنے کا اختیار بعض فقہاء کے نزدیک ہے۔

• رضا (عقود میں)

  رضا دل کی رضامندی ہے اور اس کا اظہار لفظ، عمل، تحریر یا اشارے سے ہوتا ہے۔ مال کا تبادلہ باہمی رضا سے ہی حلال ہے۔

• رفقہ (سفر کے ساتھی)

  رفقہ سفر کے ساتھی ہیں؛ اکیلے سفر سے بچنا مستحب ہے، اور عورت کو محرم یا شوہر کے بغیر سفر نہ کرنا چاہیے۔

• غلامی (رق)

  رق انسان کا دوسرے انسان کی ملکیت میں ہونا ہے؛ اصل آزادی ہے، اور آزاد مسلمان کو غلام نہیں بنایا جا سکتا۔ غلام کے حقوق و فرائض، اس کی عبادات، نکاح، جرائم اور حدود کے احکام تفصیل سے مذکور ہیں۔

• رجوع

  رجوع لغت میں لوٹنا ہے، اور فقہ میں کسی تصرف سے پیچھے ہٹنا یا اسے ختم کرنا۔ گواہی سے رجوع کی صورت میں فیصلے کے بعد گواہ مال کے ضامن ہوتے ہیں، جبکہ اقرار سے رجوع پر جمہور کے نزدیک حد ساقط ہو جاتی ہے۔

• رکوع

  رکوع نماز کا رکن ہے؛ اس میں اطمینان جمہور کے نزدیک فرض ہے اور حنفی اسے واجب کہتے ہیں۔ مخلوق کے سامنے تعظیم کے طور پر رکوع کرنا جائز نہیں۔

• رکون (نکاح کی بات پکی ہونا)

  رکون نکاح کی منگنی میں رضامندی ظاہر کرنے کو کہتے ہیں؛ کسی صحیح وجہ سے رجوع جائز ہے اور بغیر وجہ مکروہ۔

• رقبیٰ

  رقبیٰ ایک ایسا عطیہ ہے جس میں ہر فریق دوسرے کی موت کا منتظر ہو؛ شافعی، حنبلی اور ابو یوسف اسے جائز کہتے ہیں، جبکہ ابو حنیفہ اور محمد اسے باطل کہتے ہیں۔

• رشد

  رشد سمجھ داری اور درست طرزِ عمل ہے؛ بالغ ہونے کے بعد اگر شخص رشید ہو تو اس کی ولایت ختم ہو جاتی ہے اور مال اس کے سپرد کیا جاتا ہے۔

• رؤیت (فقہی احکام)

  رؤیت لغت میں آنکھ سے کسی چیز کا ادراک ہے، اور فقہاء کے ہاں عام طور پر یہی معنی مراد ہوتا ہے۔ نکاح کے ارادے سے منگیتر کو دیکھنا مستحب ہے، اور شرمگاہ کو شہوت سے دیکھنا حرام ہے۔ بیع میں مبیع کا علم شرط ہے اور رؤیت اس کا ذریعہ ہے۔

• رؤیت ہلال

  رؤیت ہلال سے مراد چاند دیکھنا ہے؛ رمضان، شوال اور ذوالحجہ کے آغاز کا ثبوت گواہی، خبر اور اکمال عدد سے ہوتا ہے، اور فقہاء کی آراء اس بارے میں مختلف ہیں۔

• الشِّغار

  Shighar was a marriage of the pre-Islamic period, in which a man gave his female dependent to another on condition that the other gave his own female dependent, with neither receiving a dower, each one's pudendum serving as the dower of the other. The four schools differ. The Hanafis hold the marriage valid, the condition void and the dower due at the level of a comparable dower. The Malikis annul the explicit form before and after consummation. The Shafi'is and Hanbalis void it in its basic form, with distinctions where a dower is named.

• الحالة الاجتماعية في العرب قبل الإسلام

  al-Raheeq al-Makhtum's picture of Jahili society: the high standing of women among the nobility and the mixing of the other classes, the four Jahili forms of marriage in Aisha's report, unlimited polygamy, marrying two sisters and a father's widow, divorce in men's hands, widespread fornication, treatment of children from tenderness to burial alive, tribal asabiyya and the maxim 'help your brother, wronging or wronged', the disjointed relations between tribes, and the sacred months as their mercy; the author judges the social condition to have been at its lowest.

• تعدد ازدواج

  شیخ عمر عبدالکافی تعدد ازدواج کو ایک شخص کے واقعے سے بیان کرتے ہیں جس نے دو بیویاں کیں اور اپنی ذمہ داری کے بوجھ کو نہ جانا، اور دو سوکنوں کے درمیان مشقت بیان کرتے ہیں؛ ان کی رائے سنی موقف سے الگ دکھائی گئی ہے، جو ابھی ماخوذ نہیں۔

• تعدد ازواج

  Polygyny in the sharia is the permissibility of a man marrying more than one wife under conditions including justice between them; the Kuwaiti Fiqh Encyclopedia devotes sections to its rulings in the marriage chapters.

• تعدد (کثرت: عبادت، کفارہ، نکاح، طلاق اور دیگر امور میں)

  Ta'addud is plurality. Its applications: several muezzins are lawful and recommended; repeating the congregation in a mosque after the quarter's imam is disliked by the Hanafis, Malikis and Shafiis, and lawful for the Hanbalis. More than one Friday prayer in a town is forbidden by the majority except by necessity, and lawful for the Hanafis. Repeating the fast's expiation by repeated intercourse is disputed. Marriage up to four is established by the Qur'an. Several judges in a town are lawful, but more than one imam is forbidden by the majority.

• تعبیر (ارادے کا اظہار: قول، فعل، تحریر، اشارہ اور خاموشی)

  Tacbir is expression; the root of expressing will is speech, since consent is hidden in the heart, so the law attaches to the visible word, and the formula is a pillar of contracts. It may be by deed, as in exchange where the majority accept it and the Shafiis largely do not; by writing, which concludes contracts and makes a divorce when legible; by gesture for the dumb by agreement; and by silence for a grown virgin's consent, on the hadith «her consent is her silence». Laughter and weeping count with their signs.

• تعلیق (شرطی جملہ بندی)

  تعلیق ایک جملے کے مضمون کو دوسرے جملے کے مضمون کے حصول سے جوڑنا ہے، اور اسے مجازاً قسم کہا جاتا ہے۔ یہ اضافت سے اس لیے مختلف ہے کہ اس میں غیر یقینی بات ہوتی ہے، اور شرط سے اس لیے کہ اس کا حرف اصل فعل پر داخل ہوتا ہے۔ فقہاء نے اس کے حروف گنوائے ہیں، جن میں ان، اذا، متی، متی ما، من، ای، مہما، کل اور کلما شامل ہیں، اور بعض حروف کے بارے میں مذاہب میں اختلاف ہے۔ اس کی شرائط یہ ہیں کہ شرط غیر یقینی ہو، معلوم الوقوع ہو، شرط اور جزا کے درمیان فاصلہ نہ ہو، مستقبل سے متعلق ہو، محض جواب کے طور پر نہ ہو، اور ربط ظاہر ہو۔ اللہ کی مشیئت پر معلق طلاق واقع نہیں ہوتی۔ حنفیہ اور مالکیہ کے نزدیک ایک قسم کی ملکیت کافی ہے، جبکہ شافعیہ اور حنابلہ کے نزدیک معلق کرنے والے کا فوراً نافذ کرنے کا اختیار ہونا ضروری ہے۔ حنفیہ کے نزدیک تعلیق سبب اور حکم دونوں کو روک دیتی ہے، جبکہ شافعیہ کے نزدیک صرف حکم کو روکتی ہے۔ ایلاء، حج، خلع (شوہر کی جانب سے)، طلاق، ظہار، عتق، کتابت، نذر اور ولایت تعلیق کو قبول کرتے ہیں، جبکہ اجارہ، اقرار، ایمان، بیع، رجعت، نکاح، وقف اور وکالت اسے قبول نہیں کرتے، اور اصول یہ ہے کہ خالص تملیک تعلیق کو قبول نہیں کرتی اور خالص اسقاط قبول کرتا ہے۔

• تعریض (اشارے سے بات کرنا: عدت میں رشتہ، قذف، اور رجوع کی طرف اشارہ)

  Ta'rid is allusion, the opposite of plain statement: speech that may carry the intended sense or another. A veiled proposal to a widow in her waiting period is lawful by agreement; to one divorced irrevocably the Malikis, the more known Shafii view and one Hanbali view allow it, while the Hanafis forbid it. Allusion to slander is punished by the hadd for the Malikis if the context shows it, by discipline only for the Hanafis, and for the Shafiis is slander only if meant and the words can bear it. One may allude to kill a seeker who would take a Muslim back to unbelief. The judge may allude to a confessor to retract, in the sounder Shafii view, and it is recommended by the Hanafis and Hanbalis.

• تعزیت (پرسا دینا)

  تعزیت لغت میں کسی صدمہ زدہ کو تسلی دینے اور صبر کی تلقین کرنے کو کہتے ہیں، اور شریعت میں اس میں صبر کی تلقین، اجر کا وعدہ، گناہ سے ڈرانا، میت کی مغفرت اور صاحبِ مصیبت کے لیے دعا شامل ہے۔ فقہاء کے نزدیک جو شخص کسی مصیبت میں مبتلا ہو اس کی تعزیت مستحب ہے۔ تعزیت ہر عمر اور جنس کے سوگواروں کی کی جاتی ہے، سوائے اس بچے کے جو سمجھ نہ رکھتا ہو، اور جوان عورت کی تعزیت صرف عورتیں اور اس کے محرم کریں، فتنے کے خوف سے۔ جمہور کے نزدیک اس کی مدت تین دن ہے اور افضل یہ ہے کہ دفن کے بعد ہو؛ مسجد میں تعزیت کے لیے بیٹھنا مکروہ ہے اور شافعیہ و حنابلہ کے نزدیک اہلِ میت کا تعزیت وصول کرنے کے لیے جمع ہونا مکروہ ہے۔ پڑوسیوں کے لیے مستحب ہے کہ اہلِ میت کے لیے کھانا بنائیں، جبکہ اہلِ میت کا لوگوں کے لیے کھانا بنانا مکروہ ہے۔ الفاظ کی کوئی مقرر صورت نہیں، اور مسلمان کی تعزیت کافر سے کرنے کے بارے میں امام شافعی اور امام ابوحنیفہ کی ایک روایت جواز کی ہے جبکہ امام مالک منع کرتے ہیں۔

• تدبیر (مالک کی موت کے بعد آزادی)

  Tadbir is freeing a slave to take effect after his master's death; it is a form of manumission and an act of piety. Most scholars hold that the freedman comes from a third of the estate after death. The schools differ on its effects: the Hanafis and Malikis do not sell the tadbir slave; the Shafi'is allow sale, and a later sale is allowed for debt. Killing the master and debts that consume the estate void it.

• تخنث (مردوں کا عورتوں کی مشابہت اختیار کرنا)

  Takhannuth is the swaying and softening of a man's speech, walk and dress in the manner of women. Deliberate effeminacy is forbidden, and a narration has the Prophet cursing men who imitate women; it draws a ta'zir penalty. The rulings differ between the naturally effeminate and the one who does it on purpose: a naturally effeminate man who cannot give it up is not blamed and may lead prayer by most jurists, while one who does it deliberately is counted a sinner, and his imamate is disputed.

• تخییر (اختیار سپرد کرنا)

  Takhyir is leaving to the obligated person's choice one of several options fixed by the law. It has its own rules in many places: the choice of the time for prayer within its broad window, the collector's choice of zakat type, the choice of ransom for a violation of ihram, the expiation for hunting in the sacred precinct and for an oath, the choice of a husband who converts with more than four wives, a child's choice in custody, the imam's choice over captives and the penalty for brigandage, the finder's choice over a lost item, and the victim's choice among retaliation, blood-money and pardon.

• طلاق

  In his commentary on al-Baqara 2:228-232, Sha'rawi reads divorce in stages, once and then twice, as giving the couple room to mend; he holds that returning to a wife after the waiting period needs a new contract and a new dower and the woman's consent, and that relatives may not block the return when the spouses agree.

• ترحم (رحمت کی دعا دینا)

  Tarahhum is asking for mercy and invoking it. Jurists recommend it for parents, living or dead, and for the righteous. The sources differ on invoking mercy upon the Prophet inside and outside prayer, on the formula for the Companions and for those who came after them, on greeting among Muslims, and on invoking mercy upon unbelievers, which is forbidden after their death.

• تراخی (کام میں تاخیر)

  Tarakhi is performing an act later than its first possible time, up to the point where it may be lost; its opposite is fawr, prompt performance. Usulis differ over a bare command: whether it requires prompt performance, delay, or neither. Jurists apply delay in the return of usurped goods, in gifts, in pre-emption, in bequests, in marriage and in defect options.

• ترکہ (میت کا مال و حقوق)

  The estate is what a deceased person leaves of property and rights; for the Hanafis it is property alone. It passes to the heirs on the owner's death, and the rights attached to it are paid in order: the burial, the debts, the bequest, and then the division among heirs. The schools differ on its passing when debts take the whole estate, on the dying man's gifts and on undoing a division.

• ترجیل (بالوں میں کنگھی کرنا)

  Tarjil is combing, cleaning and dressing the hair; the rule is recommendation. It is allowed to one in seclusion; for the muhrim the Shafi'is call it disliked; a widow in mourning may comb with something without perfume (the majority allow it, the Hanafis forbid it); starting from the right is recommended, and doing it every other day rather than daily is the sunna.

• ترمیم (وقف، کرایہ اور رہن کی مرمت)

  Tarmim is repair. It arises for endowed property, rented property and pledged property. For an endowment the Hanafis, Malikis and Shafi'is repair from its income; the Hanbalis follow the founder's stipulation. In a lease the landlord repairs the building according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis. In a pledge the pledgor pays for keeping the pledge, and the pledgee pays for guarding it.

• ترشید (سرپرستی سے رہائی، رشد ثابت ہونے پر)

  Tarshid is lifting restraint from a minor after testing him. Sound judgement means soundness in property for the Hanafis, Malikis and Hanbalis, and soundness in religion and property for the Shafi'is. A minor may be tested in trade, the time of the test is disputed, and the test is obligatory for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis. The rule varies by guardian, sex and case, and no particular words are required except in Maliki usage.

• تصادق (دعوی کی باہمی تصدیق)

  Tasadduq is two parties, or the claimant and the party claimed against, confirming each other's word; it is the opposite of contradicting. It binds when it concerns human rights or rights of God that doubts do not avert; for rights of God that doubts avert, such as the hadd penalties, it counts only with proof. It is valid from a sane, free adult, by word, sign, writing or silence, and the one confirmed must be entitled. Marriage is not proved by mutual confirmation for non-Malikis, since witnesses are required; the waiting period is a right of God and not dropped by confirmation; a wife's confirmation of her husband's claim to poverty stands in place of proof. Retracting a confirmation is not accepted for human rights, but a confession to a hadd may be retracted.

• تسلیف (پیشگی ادائیگی؛ قرض)

  In the lexicon, taslif means advancing something; one says he advanced to him, and that he borrowed from him. In dealings the word salaf names a loan, and a kind of sale in which the price is paid at once while the goods, fixed by description, are delivered at a known term; the majority call this salam. The Kuwaiti encyclopedia says the salaf is lawful by the Book, the Sunna and consensus, and that the jurists made the salam an exception to the ban on selling what does not yet exist, for the ease of farmers and traders. A loan is agreed by the Muslims to be recommended.

• تسامع (شہرت یا سنی سنائی بات پر گواہی)

  Tasamu is knowledge gained by repeated report or wide repute. Testimony by repute is allowed by agreement in six matters: freeing, descent, death, marriage, patronage and endowment. Each school adds to this list: the Hanafis the dower, consummation and the appointment of a judge; the Malikis many more; the Shafi'is ownership; the Hanbalis absolute ownership, birth, divorce, khul, the endowment and its purpose. The Hanafis require the report to come from people who could not agree on a lie.

• تسری (مملوکہ لونڈی سے ملک یمین کے تحت تعلق اور اس کے احکام)

  Tasarri is a master's lawful relations with a woman he owns, and it is allowed by the Qur'an, the Sunna and agreement, subject to conditions: ownership, a woman who is a Muslim or a People of the Book, and no bar of kinship or marriage. Its rules cover the waiting period, the bars by marriage and kinship, the descent of the child, and the joining of two sisters in ownership. The schools differ on the descent of a child born of such relations.

• تصرف (شرعی تصرف: ارادے سے صادر ہونے والا فعل یا قول)

  A tasarruf is what proceeds from a person by his will and on which the law builds various rulings. It is wider than an obligation or a contract. It is either an act, such as seizure or receiving, or a statement; a statement is either a contract, which needs the will of two parties, such as sale, hire or marriage, or a non-contractual statement: some carry a creating will, such as an endowment or a divorce, and some are pure, such as a claim or an acknowledgement. Worship, exchanges, gifts, restrictions, obligations, waivers, authorities, proofs and wrongs all fall under it; the conditions of its validity are given in the entries for each kind.

• تسبیل (کسی چیز کا فائدہ نیک کام کے لیے وقف کرنا)

  Tasbil is making a thing a way to a good cause; it is also used for endowment. For the Shafi'is and Hanbalis the word is explicit for an endowment; the Hanafis need an intention; the Malikis hold that making a thing a way of good implies giving its substance in alms unless a sign shows that the endowment of the thing or its use is meant. It is a recommended act of nearness to God by agreement.

• تصفیہ (ترکے اور قرضوں کا تصفیہ)

  Tasfiya is the whole of the work whose aim is to list the dead person's rights and obligations and to pay the claims on the estate to those who hold them, creditors, legatees and heirs. It is a modern term used by lawyers; the jurists did not treat it under this heading, but they set out the rights of the estate, of minors, of creditors and of legatees in the entries on the estate, inheritance and bequest.

• تشوف (شریعت کا کسی حق کا خیال؛ عدت اور خطبہ میں زینت)

  Tashawwuf is longing or looking out, and in jurisprudence it covers several things: the lawgiver's concern to establish descent, so rare cases are admitted to attach a child to a father; his concern for manumission, an act of devotion that any sane Muslim may perform; the revocable divorcee may adorn herself in her waiting period, by the Hanafi, Maliki and Hanbali view, while the Shafiis recommend mourning for her; adornment is forbidden to a widow by consensus, and disputed for a woman divorced irrevocably; a woman fit for marriage may not adorn herself to be seen by suitors, while a suitor may look at her, the majority allowing only the face and hands and the Hanbalis what shows at work.

• تشبیہ (فقہی کلام میں تشبیہ: ظہار، قذف، سب)

  The ruling on tashbih depends on where it is used. Likening one's wife, or a common part of her, to a woman forbidden to him for ever is zihar: forbidden by the text, with intercourse forbidden before expiation by consensus and, for most jurists, any sensual contact short of intercourse. In slander, an explicit accusation of adultery is slander that carries the hadd penalty; an allusive one is slander for Malik, but not for Abu Hanifa and al-Shafii unless the slanderer meant slander. It is not lawful to liken a fellow Muslim to something he dislikes; the abuser is punished with ta'zir, and most jurists punish likening a person to base animals.

• تصحیح (درستگی: حدیث، عقد، عبادت اور وراثت کے حصص)

  Tashih means removing an error. For the hadith scholars it is ruling a hadith sound once its conditions are met; for the experts in inheritance it removes fractions between shares and heads; for the jurists it is removing what spoils a worship or a contract. Correcting a defect is a duty once known. On hadith the conditions are disputed, and a scholar's practice in line with a hadith is not a ruling that it is sound. A defective contract is not made valid by removing its defect, according to the non-Hanafi jurists; the Hanafis hold that a weak defect may be removed while a void one may not. A worship spoiled in the course of it can be corrected by removing the fault quickly, as when a worshipper's judgement of the qibla changes or a garment slips or an impurity falls on him. Inheritance shares are corrected by multiplication according to the agreement, overlap and separateness of the numbers of heads.

• تشریک (کسی کو شریک کرنا: خرید، عبادت یا طلاق میں)

  Tashrik is bringing another into an affair so that he becomes a partner in it, as when a buyer takes a partner in a purchase. Taking a partner in a sale is lawful by consensus; mixing a purpose that needs no intention into an act of worship is lawful, as trade with the pilgrimage; combining two worships where one falls within the other, as the Friday and the major-impurity washing, is lawful; combining two independent acts of worship under one intention is not. In a divorce addressed to four wives at once, a single pronouncement of one talaq falls on each.

• تسمیہ (نام رکھنا اور نام کے احکام)

  Tasmiya in the language comes from height or from a mark. The jurists use it in four senses: saying «in the name of God», giving a proper name to a child or to anything else, fixing the consideration in contracts, and identifying by name as against leaving a thing vague. The father has the better right to name a child, and if the parents differ the father's choice is preferred. The schools differ on the time: the Malikis hold that a child is named on the seventh day after the aqiqa sacrifice, and a child whose guardian cannot afford the aqiqa may be named at any time; the Shafi'is recommend the seventh day; the Hanbalis report two views. For a stillborn child, Abu Hanifa's view is that he is not named, the Malikis agree, the Shafi'is say his naming is not to be omitted, and the Hanbalis say he may be given a name fit for either sex. A child who dies after birth and before he is named is named. Names built on the divine names are recommended, and the most beloved to God are Abdullah and Abd al-Rahman. Naming after prophets is allowed according to most jurists. Names that people think ill-omened, such as Rabah, Yasar, Najah and Aflah, are disliked, and names that people shrink from, such as Harb and Murra, are disliked too. The names of God that belong to Him alone are forbidden, and so is every name built on a servitude to anything other than God, such as Abd al-Uzza or Abd al-Ka'ba. Changing a name is allowed and changing an ugly name to a good one is recommended. Naming tools, mounts and garments, and naming stars after Arabic words, is permitted; renaming a forbidden drink to escape its ruling does not lift the prohibition.

• تسوید (سید کہنا، اور سیاہ رنگ کرنا یا سیاہ پہننا)

  Tasweed has two senses that the jurists treat: the first is honouring someone with the title sayyid, and the second is dyeing with black, the opposite of white. Under sovereignty they discuss the title for the Prophet in prayer and outside it, for others, for the hypocrite, and whether sayyid may be said of anyone but God. Under black they discuss dyeing with it, wearing it in mourning, condolence and dress, and blackening the face in discretionary punishment. Most schools dislike dyeing with black except in jihad and differ on the detail; the Shafi'is hold it forbidden.

• تسویہ (برابری: صفیں، رکوع، زکوٰۃ کے مصارف، بیویوں، قاضی کے فیصلے، عطیات، شفعہ، عام راستے اور قبر)

  Taswiya means justice and fairness in the language; its opposite is injustice. In the jurists' use it means equality in many matters: levelling the rows and the back in bowing in prayer, equal shares among the eight categories in zakat, equal turns among wives, equal treatment of two litigants before the judge, equal gifts among children, equal shares among those entitled to pre-emption, equal use of public places, and levelling the grave. Equal turns among wives and equal treatment of litigants are required by agreement; the other matters range between obligation and recommendation according to the school. On equal gifts to children, the Hanbalis hold it obligatory and the majority hold it recommended.

• تزئین (زیبائی اور سجاوٹ کے احکام)

  Tazayyun is taking adornment. The rule is recommendation. It is forbidden for a man or woman to imitate the other, for a man to wear gold or silk, and to decorate mosques with endowed funds, and it is obligatory for a wife to adorn herself for her husband when he asks. The widow in her waiting period may not adorn herself, and bodily alterations that change God's creation, such as tattooing and plucking, are forbidden.

• تزویج (نکاح کرانا اور ولایت)

  Tazwij is a contract that gives a man enjoyment of a woman and makes lawful her enjoyment by him in a lawful way. Its ruling varies with the person: obligatory, forbidden, disliked, recommended or permitted. A free, adult, sound-minded man may contract his own marriage; a minor or a madman is contracted by his guardian by compulsion. On a woman contracting her own marriage the jurists differ: most require a guardian, while the Hanafis let an adult sane woman contract for herself.

• أخت

  A sister is one born to the same mother and father or one of them, and includes full, paternal, maternal and milk sisters; she is a prohibited kinswoman for keeping ties, marriage, maintenance and blood-money; in inheritance she is blocked by what blocks a brother; the full and paternal sisters inherit by fixed share or agnation, the maternal sister by fixed share only; in custody she precedes the brother and follows the mother, and follows the father in schools other than the Hanafis..

• علوق (حمل ٹھہرنا)

  In the lexicon, ulluq means clinging and lodging, and in the jurists' usage it is the occurrence of conception, by intercourse or by emission through intercourse or a dream. Conception within a marriage bed establishes lineage: when a man, able to father children, has intercourse with his wife with no one else sharing it and she bears a child within the period of gestation, the child is attributed to him by agreement. A woman under a revocable divorce is attributed the child she conceived even if the birth comes more than two years later, since her cleanliness and conception may have been delayed, and intercourse during the waiting period restores the marriage; birth is evidence of the return. Conception also affects bequests to an unborn child and inheritance, where the share is held until the birth.

• عمریہ (وراثت کی دو صورتیں)

  'Umariyya is the name of two cases in the law of inheritance, a husband with both parents or a wife with both parents, named after 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, who was the first to decide them. The mother takes a third where the deceased has no child or grandchild and the parents alone inherit, and a sixth where there is a child or two or more siblings. 'Umar and the majority held that in the 'umariyya the mother takes a third of what remains after the spouse's share; so with a husband the estate is counted as six shares, the husband taking three, the mother one and the father two, and with a wife twelve shares. Ibn 'Abbas, Abu Bakr al-Asamm and Zayd ibn Thabit differed in their reasoning.

• الأم

  Honouring the parents is obligatory for a Muslim, even if they are sinful or unbelievers; the mother takes precedence, following the hadith 'your mother, then your mother, then your mother, then your father'. Marriage to a mother by blood or by milk is forbidden by consensus. Maintenance is due to parents with no earnings or property; custody goes first to a Muslim mother; the mother has three inheritance cases, a sixth, a third, and a third of the remainder in the two named cases. A parent is not retaliated against for killing a child, a mother is not cut off for stealing her child's property, and most jurists do not accept one's testimony for the other.

• أم الأرامل

  Umm al-armal is one of the named cases in inheritance: two grandmothers, three wives, four uterine sisters, and eight full or consanguine sisters. It is called the seventeen case because its shares total seventeen. It starts at twelve and rises to seventeen.

• أم الفروخ

  Umm al-furukh is a named case in inheritance with a husband, a mother, two full or paternal sisters, and two or more uterine siblings; it is named for the many shares that rise in it. It is also called al-balja' and al-shuraihiyya; some say the name fits any case that rises to ten. Its base is six, rising to ten by the majority view.

• عمرٰی (عمر بھر کا ہبہ)

  In the lexicon, umra is what a man is given for the length of his life, or the lifetime of the grantor. For the Hanafis it is the owner's making a thing that he owns the possession of another for the life of one of the two; for the Malikis and Shafi'is it is the owner's giving of something he owns to a person for the life of the grantee. It differs from loan of use, the gift of a palm's fruit, the gift of milk, and the ruqba (mutual life-grant). It is permitted in general on the report of Jabir, and it is a form of gift that needs offer and taking possession. The jurists differ on whether it transfers ownership or use: the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold that it transfers ownership at once, while the Malikis hold it transfers the use. The Shafi'is distinguish its forms: if the owner says 'I give you this for your life, and when you die it goes to your heirs', it is a gift with ownership passing to the heirs, and the newer Shafi'i view treats a bare grant for life as a gift.

• عقم (بانجھ پن)

  In the lexicon, uqm is a dryness that prevents conception; a woman who cannot conceive is barren, and the word is used of a man who cannot father children. The jurists recommend that a man marrying choose a fertile virgin, since the law encourages offspring and forbids what blocks them; a report discourages marrying a barren woman. The majority hold that sterility is not a defect that dissolves a marriage; al-Hasan alone gives the option of withdrawal at the start of the marriage, and the majority do not require a spouse who knows of his or her sterility to disclose it before the contract. Full blood-money is due for injuring the power to conceive or to impregnate, and cutting off offspring by medicine is forbidden.

• عقر (مہر کا بدل)

  In the lexicon, uqr is the dower, especially the dower given to a woman forced or taken as a slave-woman; it is also the dower of a woman who is had by mistake. As a term it is the dower of the usual kind for a free woman and, for a slave-woman, a tenth of her value if she was a virgin or half of it if she was not. Ajr is wider and covers the price of benefits generally, while uqr is used only of benefit from the woman's body. The dower is due in a valid marriage on the contract and consummation, and in a void marriage on consummation; it is due also for intercourse under a mistake, and the jurists differ on whether the stipulated dower or the customary dower is due.

• والدین کی نافرمانی

  والدین کی نافرمانی، جو ان کے ساتھ نیکی کی ضد ہے، شیخ عمر عبدالکافی کے بیان کے مطابق: غصے، حقارت اور ایذا کی صورتیں، اور آخرت میں اس کے نتائج۔

• عسیلہ

  In the lexicon, usayla means a drop of semen, a man's water, or the sweetness of intercourse; the term is a euphemism for intercourse. The jurists agree that a woman divorced three times may not return to her former husband until she has married another man and he has separated from her, and that the second marriage must include consummation. The least that suffices is the penetration of the glans with an erection; al-Hasan al-Basri also required emission, but the rest of the jurists disagreed. Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab dissented on the requirement of consummation and, according to Ibn Abidin, later returned to the majority view. Details are treated under «tahlil».

• الوأد

  Waʾd: burying infant girls alive out of fear of poverty or disgrace — Islam abolished it and classed it among the gravest sins.

• وَدَاع

  Wada' is the verbal noun of taking leave; the one who departs is the one who is taken leave of, since he is the one parting. A traveller is advised to take leave of his family, brethren and friends and ask their prayers, and the one who sees him off says: 'I entrust you to God, who does not lose what is entrusted to Him'; Ibn Umar reported the words 'may God keep your faith, your trust and the last of your deeds'. It is recommended to pray two rak'as before leaving, and to pray for those who go out to fight in God's way. The Hanafis forbid a man kissing the mouth of another man; a Shafi'i view recommends kissing a returning traveller of the same sex. The pilgrim takes leave of the House by the farewell circuit (tawaf al-wada').

• وَضِيمة

  Wadima, lexically, is the food of a funeral gathering, the food made at a calamity, gathered pasture, and a visit in which a few people come down on a people and are treated well and honoured. For the jurists it is the food made at a calamity. Related words: khurs, the food at a birth or for a woman after childbirth, and hadhdhaq, the feast at a boy's completion of the Qur'an. All three are feasts; wadima is at a calamity and death, khurs at the joy of a birth, and hadhdhaq at the memorising of the Qur'an. Ruling on making a wadima when the family of the dead makes it: the Hanafis, Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis dislike it, since it adds to their grief, distracts them, imitates the custom of the pre-Islamic age, and food is not made for sorrow. Jarir ibn Abd Allah is reported to have said that gathering to the family of the dead and making food was counted as wailing. A Hanafi view allows the family to make food, citing the account of a man of the Ansar who, after a burial, received a meal from a woman, which the book says al-Nawawi graded as sound in its chain. The Malikis: food for the recitation of the Qur'an or similar good for the dead is acceptable; otherwise disliked; if the dead person bequeathed it, it comes from the third and must be carried out. The Shafi'is forbid it if it is taken from the estate when the dead man has debts or heirs are minors, absent or under restraint. The Hanbalis add that where mourners are guests who come from far away, making food for them is not disliked, since it may be needed. Food from people other than the family: the jurists agree that it is recommended for the neighbours and distant relatives of the dead to prepare food for the family, enough for a day and a night, citing the saying to make food for the family of Ja'far, since it is righteousness and kindness. The Hanbalis urge the family to eat; the Shafi'is add that pressing them is acceptable where it is known that they will be pleased. The Malikis and Shafi'is hold that if the family gathers for forbidden acts such as lamenting, wailing or striking the face, the gathering is not lawful; the text continues beyond p.17481. The Malikis and Shafi'is hold that it is not recommended to make food for a family that gathers for forbidden acts such as the excessive lament, striking and wailing, and to send food to them is forbidden, since they are sinners. Answering the invitation to a wadima: the Hanafis hold it recommended; the Shafi'is, Hanbalis and Malikis hold it disliked; Ibn Rushd of the Malikis holds it permitted. Eating from the wadima food: the Hanafis say there is no harm in eating it. The Malikis say that no one should eat from food the family makes and invites people to, unless the one who made it is an adult heir of sound judgement. The Hanbalis say it is disliked for those who are not guests to eat it, and forbidden where the food is taken from the estate while one of its heirs is under restraint, or from another's property without permission. Slaughter at the grave and carrying food to it: the Hanafis, Malikis, the Shafi'is (as al-Haytami favoured) and the Hanbalis count it a disliked innovation, as a pre-Islamic practice, against the saying 'there is no slaughter in Islam', and because it invites show. Ibn Taymiyya holds slaughter at a grave forbidden, and a vow to do it is not to be kept. The Hanbalis call placing food or drink on a grave to be taken by people reprehensible, and forbidden where the estate includes a restrained or absent heir.

• مہر کی معافی

  آیت «أو يعفو الذي بيده عقدة النكاح» پر شعراوی کہتے ہیں کہ مہر عورت کا حق ہے اور جس کے ہاتھ میں نکاح کی گرہ ہے وہ شوہر ہے، سرپرست نہیں۔ وہ ان لوگوں کا جواب دیتے ہیں جنہوں نے سرپرست مراد لیا، جنہیں اس صفحے پر وہ نام لیے بغیر نقل کرتے ہیں.

• وَلد اللِّعان

  ولد اللعان وہ بچہ ہے جس کے نسب کا شوہر نے لعان کے بعد انکار کیا۔ لعان سے باپ سے نسب منقطع ہوتا ہے، اور اقرار کی صورت میں نسب بحال ہوتا ہے۔

• وَلد الزِّنى

  ولد الزنا وہ بچہ ہے جو ماں کو نکاح کے بغیر حرام تعلق سے حاصل ہو۔ اس کا نسب ماں سے ثابت ہوتا ہے، اور جمہور کے نزدیک باپ سے منقطع رہتا ہے۔

• وَليمة

  Walima, from walm (gathering), is the feast of a wedding or betrothal, and technically any food made for a happy event. The rulings on the wedding feast cover whether it is a sunna or an obligation, whether it is enforced, the purpose of announcing the marriage, accepting the invitation, and eating by a fasting or non-fasting guest.

• وَصِيَّة

  In the lexicon wasiyya comes from joining one thing to another and can also name the thing bequeathed. Technically a bequest of property is a gift made by way of kindness and attached to the time after death, whether of things or of benefits. Related terms are the commission (ايصاء), the executorship (wisaya), the gift, which is in life and without return, and alms, which is in life to one in need seeking reward. The bequest is lawful by the Qur'an, the Sunna and consensus. The Qur'an places the bequest and the debt before inheritance, and the sunna places the debt before the bequest; a report from Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas holds a third to be much, and that leaving heirs rich is better than leaving them in need. A report from Mu'adh says God gives charity of a third at death as an increase in good deeds, and a report from Ibn Umar says a Muslim who has a bequest should not spend two nights without it written by him. Its purpose is to gain remembrance and reward, to give to relatives who do not inherit and to help the needy, on condition that no one is harmed, that it stays within a third, and that it is not valid for an heir without the consent of the other heirs, to prevent hatred. Most jurists hold that a bequest of part of the property is not obligatory but recommended for one who leaves good; the obligation was abrogated for heirs by the report that there is no bequest to an heir, and recommendation remains for non-heirs. A bequest of less than a third is preferred; the Hanbalis say a fifth is better for the rich; Ibn Abbas and others preferred a quarter. Where heirs are poor the bequest is reduced, and a poor man with needy heirs is not advised to bequeath, in the Hanafi and Hanbali views. Some early authorities, such as al-Zuhri, Masruq and Tawus, held the bequest obligatory for relatives who do not inherit, relying on the verse on bequests and the report of Ibn Umar. The pillars of the bequest are, for the majority, four: the formula, the testator, the legatee and the thing bequeathed. For the Hanafis the pillar is offer and acceptance according to Abu Hanifa and his two companions, and offer alone according to Zufar. The formula is any word showing transfer after death. The majority accept a bequest in writing; the Shafi'is treat writing as an allusion requiring intention, and the Hanbalis require the testator's hand to be proven. A sign from one able to speak is not valid in the majority view, and the Malikis allow it. Acceptance may be by conduct, where the legatee deals with the thing as its owner, by sale, gift or lease. If the legatee dies after the testator without accepting, the Hanafis hold the thing passes to his heirs; the Malikis, Hanbalis and a Shafi'i view require acceptance for a named person, not mere silence, and if he dies before the testator the bequest lapses. All agree that refusal after the testator's death voids the bequest; acceptance or refusal before his death counts for nothing according to the majority. Acceptance and refusal need not come at once after death; the Shafi'is and Hanbalis let the heirs require the legatee to decide. On retracting an acceptance there are three views: the majority forbid it; some Shafi'is and Hanbalis allow it before possession; a third allows it for measured goods before possession. A partial acceptance is disputed in the Shafi'i school; Zakariyya al-Ansari prefers invalidity. A named legatee of full capacity accepts or refuses for himself; an unnamed group such as the poor or the mosques needs neither; a ward accepts through his guardian for his interest. If a named legatee dies after the testator without accepting, the Hanafis except Zufar hold the bequest valid by preference; Zufar and a Hanbali view make it the heirs' property and void it; the majority let his heirs stand in his place. A bequest may be made conditional or dated to the future: the Hanafis and Shafi'is allow it; the Malikis void it when the testator says if I die of this illness and does not die of it; the Hanbalis allow a condition expected to occur after death. A bequest is not binding; the testator may revoke all or part of it, in health or in sickness, as Umar is reported to have said that a man may change what he wills. Revocation may be by word, or by conduct such as sale, gift, pledge, consumption, mixing, grinding grain, spinning cotton or building on the thing. The majority hold that denying the bequest is not a revocation. The testator must be sane; the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis require puberty, while the Malikis and a Hanbali view allow a discerning minor in the matters where he is able. An insane person, the dazed and the unconscious are excluded. Freedom is required, so a slave's bequest is void; the bequest must be made freely, so one forced, joking or mistaken makes it void. The majority do not require the testator to be Muslim; the Shafi'is and Hanbalis accept a non-Muslim's bequest, including an apostate's on the Shafi'i view unless he dies as an apostate, while the Malikis void an apostate's bequest during the apostasy. For the Hanafis, a bequest by a non-Muslim enemy in enemy territory is valid if the thing is still there when they come under protection. The legatee must exist at the time of the bequest for the Hanafis, Shafi'is (preferred view) and Hanbalis; the Malikis and a Shafi'i and Hanbali view allow a bequest to one not yet born. The legatee must be capable of owning; a bequest to a dead person unknown to the testator is void, and the Malikis then direct it to the debts of the dead or his heirs. A bequest to a foetus is valid if it is born alive within the usual period: six months from the bequest where the mother has a husband or master; four years for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis otherwise; two years for the Hanafis. A bequest to one of two unnamed men is void according to Abu Hanifa, Zufar, the Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis; Abu Yusuf holds it valid if they agree, and Muhammad leaves the choice to the heirs. A bequest to a group that cannot be counted, such as the poor, is valid; the Malikis do not require equal shares, the Shafi'is in the preferred view accept delivery to three, and the Hanbalis to one. Where the legatee is a group that cannot be counted, such as the tribes of Tamim and Aqil, the bequest is void according to the Hanafis and the less favoured Shafi'i view, because the legatee must be known; it is valid where they can be counted, and the meaning of counting is disputed. A bequest to an animal itself is void; a bequest for the fodder of a named person's animal is valid and spent on its feed, and the Shafi'is and Hanbalis differ on a bequest to a particular horse or a horse held for God. A bequest by a Muslim to a public work, such as building or repairing a mosque, is valid because it is an act of devotion; the Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis allow it to a lawful public purpose. A Muslim's bequest to build a church is forbidden by the majority as an act of disobedience. On bequests by non-Muslims, the Hanafis divide: what is devotion for both sides is valid; what is devotion only for Muslims is void; what is devotion only for them Abu Hanifa allows and his two companions forbid. A bequest to God alone is spent on works of piety in the Shafi'i view and that of Muhammad, and his view is the one followed by the Hanafis. A bequest for the cause of God is spent on military expedition by the Shafi'is, Hanbalis and Abu Yusuf, and Muhammad and a Hanbali view add the pilgrimage. A bequest to works of piety goes, for the Hanbalis, to all acts of devotion beginning with the raid; for the Hanafis, to anything without transfer of ownership. If the testator says place my third where God shows you, the Hanbalis allow it to any act of devotion; the Shafi'is prefer his relatives who do not inherit, then his close kin by milk, then his neighbours. A bequest is void where the legatee killed the testator: the Hanafis, Hanbalis, a view of the Shafi'is and al-Thawri require that the legatee not be the killer, relying on the saying that a killer has no bequest, which al-Daraqutni weakened. The bar is a killing that carries retaliation, blood-money or expiation, even by mistake; the Hanafis require direct killing and an heir of the testator. The Malikis, the preferred Shafi'i view and a Hanbali report do not require this. For the Malikis, if the testator knew the cause of the killing the bequest is valid; if he did not know, there are two views, and al-Dusuqi prefers invalidity. The jurists require that the legatee not be an heir at the testator's death where another heir exists, on the saying that God has given each holder of a right his right, so there is no bequest to an heir unless the heirs consent. If some heirs consent and others do not, the bequest is valid for the share of those who consent, according to the majority; the Malikis and a Shafi'i and Hanbali view hold it void and require a fresh acceptance. Consent must come from a competent person and, for the majority, after the testator's death. For the Malikis, consent given in the testator's illness binds, if the illness is dangerous and he does not recover; the test of who is an heir is the moment of death, not the moment of the bequest. Terms about the legatee vary in meaning: a bequest to neighbours is, for Abu Hanifa, to adjoining houses; for the two companions, to adjoining houses and others in the quarter who share the mosque; for the Malikis, to adjoining houses on six sides and those across a lane; for the Shafi'is and Hanbalis, to forty houses on each side; the Hanbalis also count those who hear the call to prayer. A bequest to relatives: for Abu Hanifa, the nearest kin in order of closeness among blood relatives within marriage's bar, excluding parents and children; for the two companions, all who trace descent to the furthest ancestor who was Muslim; for the Malikis, the paternal kin not heirs; for the Shafi'is, all kin however distant, except ascendants and descendants in the preferred view; for the Hanbalis, descendants of four forefathers. A bequest to the nearest kin: the Shafi'is include ascendants and descendants; their preferred view puts a son, however distant, before a father, and a brother before a grandfather. The Hanbalis distinguish by full and half siblings. Bequests to in-laws, to relatives by marriage, to a household and to scholars have their own senses: for the Hanafis, in-laws are the blood relatives of one's wife and kin by marriage are the husbands of the forbidden kin; scholars, for the majority, are jurists and hadith specialists, to which the Shafi'is and Hanbalis add exegetes. A bequest to a non-Muslim is valid for a protected person; the Hanbalis require him to be named. It is valid for a protected foreigner according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis. For an enemy: the Shafi'is in the preferred view and the Hanbalis in the sound view allow it to a named enemy, while the Hanafis and Malikis in the school forbid it in enemy territory. For an apostate, the Hanafis, Malikis and a Hanbali face forbid it, and the Shafi'is and sound Hanbali view allow it to a named apostate. The fourth pillar, the thing bequeathed, must be property; it includes cash, goods, debts owed by others, rights measured in money, and benefits that may be sold, given or hired. Ibn Abi Layla and Ibn Shubruma forbid bequests of benefits. It must be of value in law: a bequest by or to a Muslim of wine, pork, a savage dog or a beast unfit for hunting is void; a Christian may bequeath what is of value in his belief; a trained dog or a beast fit for hunting may be bequeathed. Only property of value may be bequeathed; a bequest of a skin before tanning is valid for the Shafi'is, and a bequest of a gold or silver vessel is valid, since it may be used when not in use as an ornament or sold. Some jurists require that what is bequeathed be capable of transfer by contract after death: the Hanafis and a Shafi'i view require it; a bequest of a year's dates from palm trees is valid, and the Hanafis reject a bequest of what a flock will bear. The majority allow bequests of what does not yet exist, as in sale by salam and in tending orchards and leasing. A bequest of an unknown thing, such as one sheep from his flock, and of a thing one cannot deliver, such as a stray camel, is valid by agreement; a bequest of an undivided share or of a divided one is valid according to the majority. For the Hanafis the thing must exist at a time that depends on its kind: a named property at the bequest; a share of the whole estate, such as a third or a quarter, at the testator's death; a share of part of the estate at the bequest. The thing must belong to the testator: the Malikis, a Shafi'i view and the Hanbali school hold that a bequest of another's property is void even if he later owns it; the Hanafis, another Shafi'i view and a Hanbali view allow it as subject to the owner's consent. A bequest of a forbidden thing is void, since its purpose is to make up for good done in life. A bequest is not carried out for a sum that absorbs all the estate unless the creditors release it, according to the Hanafis and Shafi'is; the Malikis hold that a testator whose estate is wholly owed cannot bequeath. Where the testator has heirs, a bequest above the third is valid only with their consent, according to the majority; if they consent it stands, and if they refuse it falls. Where there are no heirs, the Hanafis let the bequest take the whole estate. On a bequest of a share of property: for Abu Hanifa and the Hanbali school the legatee takes a sixth where the division has fewer than six shares; other views fix it at the smallest heir's share, or a third, or a sixth. The Malikis distinguish according to whether the estate is subject to the 'awl. A bequest of a part or portion of property is, if not explained by the testator in his life, given by the heirs as they wish after death, according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis. A bequest of a sheep covers the young or old, male or female, according to the context; the Hanbalis give what the name normally covers. A bequest of an animal is interpreted by custom as a horse, mule or donkey; a bequest of a dog that the testator does not own is void. A bequest of a drum of war is valid for one of them; a bequest of an instrument for amusement is valid if it can be used for a lawful purpose. A bequest of benefits is valid according to the majority, and its value is taken from the third; if it exceeds the third it is allowed only up to the third. For the Hanafis, the benefit returns to the owner of the thing when the legatee dies. A bequest of benefits for a set year is counted against the third by the loss of value of the thing during the period; where the benefit is shared between the legatee and the heirs it is divided by rent, by division of the thing if divisible, or by alternation of time or place. The bequest ends when the period ends before death, when the legatee gives up his right, and, in the Hanafi view, when he dies before taking it. Where the legatee of benefits is prevented from using the thing, the Hanafis make the one who prevents him pay the value of the benefit, whether one heir or all the heirs did it, and he cannot claim another period after the set time has passed. The Malikis make whoever destroys a benefit liable for it; the Shafi'is and Hanbalis hold that any right tied to a thing passes to its replacement, so if an animal whose benefit is bequeathed is killed, its value is used to buy what stands in its place. The Shafi'is say that if a house's benefit for a year is bequeathed and the testator lets it for that year and dies just after the lease, the bequest is void; if he dies after six months, it is void for the first half and the legatee takes the rest. The upkeep of a thing whose benefit is bequeathed falls on the benefit-holder for the Hanafis, Malikis and the Hanbali school, and on the owner of the thing for the Shafi'is in the preferred view. A bequest of the rights of easement that pass by inheritance, such as the right to water, to a drainage channel and to build upwards, is valid; a bequest that amounts to dividing the estate among the heirs has its own rules. A bequest to each heir of an undivided share is void for the Shafi'is, as the heir takes that by inheritance; a bequest to each heir of a particular thing needs the heirs' consent in the preferred Shafi'i view, because the aims differ. On when the thing passes: for the Hanbali school, a Maliki view and a Shafi'i view, a named legatee owns only by accepting after death, so the increase before acceptance belongs to the heirs; for the Hanafis and the preferred Maliki view, the increase after death belongs to the legatee; the preferred Shafi'i view holds ownership suspended until he accepts or refuses. Gifts bequeathed are carried out from the third left after the costs of shrouding and burial and the debts owed to people; for the Hanafis, debts owed to God such as pilgrimage, zakat, vows and expiation come from the third alone, and for the majority from the whole estate. For the Hanafis a bequest is void if the testator becomes permanently insane, whether it lasts until death or he recovers before death; permanent insanity is a month or more for Abu Yusuf and a year for Muhammad; a faint and a temporary insanity do not void it. A bequest is void where the testator is an insane person whose insanity is permanent; a person who becomes insane but recovers and bequeaths in his lucid time is valid, according to Ibn al-Najjar; the Shafi'is hold that an insanity that comes later does not void it. The apostasy of the testator voids his bequest for the Hanafis and Malikis; the Malikis add that if he returns to Islam, a written bequest stands and an unwritten one does not. The apostasy of the legatee does not void it for the Shafi'is and some Malikis; the Malikis in the school hold it void. A bequest is not binding, so the testator may revoke it whenever he likes, following Umar's words that a man may change what he wills; al-Sha'bi, Ibn Sirin, Ibn Shubruma and al-Nakha'i allow him to change anything but manumission. Revocation is either express, as in saying I revoke my bequest, which is agreed, or by act: a sale, gift, alms or endowment of the thing, or an act on it such as slaughtering the sheep, spinning cotton or weaving thread, or any act that changes its name, such as grinding grain or making a board into a door, which the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis count as revocation; denying the bequest is not revocation for most jurists. A bequest is void when the legatee refuses it after the testator's death, when the legatee dies before the testator, by agreement, and, for the majority, when he dies after the testator without accepting; for the Hanafis the bequest stands. The killing of the testator by the legatee is disputed; a bequest is void when the thing bequeathed is specific and perishes before acceptance, or when it is shown to belong to another. A bequest to an heir is void unless the heirs consent, as explained earlier. The rule is that a bequest may not exceed a third of the estate where there is an heir; if the bequests exceed the third and the heirs do not consent, the legatees share the third in proportion to their bequests. For the Hanafis, when bequests are combined, God's rights are placed first: the obligatory acts of worship such as zakat and pilgrimage, then expiations, vows and zakat al-fitr, and voluntary acts; a bequest to people is not ranked unless by text, or unless it is manumission or a bequest of advantage. Where the legatees have equal claims, the third is shared equally in the Hanafi school; where one is bequeathed the whole estate and another a third, Abu Hanifa divides the third in two, while Abu Yusuf and Muhammad share it in four parts; Ibn Abidin accepts the imam's view. The Malikis rank some bequests above others when the third is too small: ransoming a captive, then the temporary manumission of a slave, then zakat, zakat al-fitr, expiation for zihar, homicide and oaths, then a vow; bequests in the same rank share. Where the bequests overflow the third and the heirs do not consent, the legatees share the third as creditors share a bankrupt's estate, and the Malikis give worked examples with a half, a third and a quarter. The Malikis include in such sharing the bequest to an unknown person together with a named one, giving the unknown a third in the calculation; Sahnun treats a bequest without a time limit as a third of the estate. For the Shafi'is, death-related gifts are apportioned from the third by value or amount, with no priority by sequence; manumission among them is apportioned by value, and a view gives it priority. For the Hanbalis the third is shared among the legatees in proportion to their bequests, and a report from Ahmad gives manumission first. Writing a bequest is recommended: begin with the basmala, praise, the testimony of faith, then call witnesses; the Companions are reported to write the basmala at the head of their wills. Proof of a bequest is by testimony and writing: the Hanafis and Shafi'is accept writing read to witnesses or acknowledged by the testator, and not bare handwriting; the Malikis accept the testator's hand with witnesses; the Hanbalis accept known handwriting proved by the heirs or evidence. When the estate is partly present and partly absent or in debts, the Hanafis and Hanbalis carry out the bequest from the present money up to the third; the Shafi'is hold the rest of a named thing in suspense until what is absent comes. Bequests may be by shares, by portions or both; one who bequeaths the equal of an heir's share gets, for most jurists, that share added to the case; the Malikis divide differently when the heirs consent, the Shafi'is and Hanbalis give the least heir's share where heirs differ. A bequest of the equal of one of the testator's sons is valid according to the Hanafis; if the son is not an heir, the majority give the legatee nothing, and the Malikis give the son's share if the testator said as if he were an heir. A bequest of a known fraction up to a third is computed by taking the fraction from the common base of the shares; if the remainder does not divide among the heirs, the heirs' base is multiplied by the base of the bequest or by a common factor, as the Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis compute it, with three sons and a third as the example. For two or more fractions within the third, the bases are multiplied together to produce the base of both shares; the Malikis give an example with three sons and a sixth and a seventh, and the Shafi'is an example with two parents, an eighth and a fifth; the Hanbalis reduce the fractions to one common base. A bequest above the third that does not exhaust the estate needs the heirs' consent; if they consent the estate is divided by the shares, as in a half, a third and a quarter, where the base is twelve and the sum rises by one, which is agreed. When the heirs reject the excess over the third, the jurists differ on how the third is divided among the legatees. The Malikis, Shafi'is, Hanbalis, Abu Yusuf and Muhammad hold that the third is divided by the legatees' shares as though the heirs had consented, with two-thirds going to the heirs, and that it makes no difference whether a legacy exceeded the third. Abu Hanifa, Abu Thawr and Ibn al-Mundhir hold that the excess is void without consent, so a legatee of the excess counts only for the third, because a bequest of the excess was not valid and the preference carried inside it falls with it. Examples: a quarter and a half, rejected by the heirs, give three parts to the majority (two to the half-legatee, one to the quarter-legatee) and seven to Abu Hanifa (four and three). A third, a half and a quarter, rejected, give thirteen parts to the majority and eleven to Abu Hanifa. When the bequests exhaust the estate and the heirs consent, they behave like the fixed shares of 'awl, and each legatee takes a fixed part as if prescribed by God for an heir. If the heirs reject the excess, the majority divide the third among the legatees in proportion to their shares, while Abu Hanifa, Abu Thawr and Ibn al-Mundhir do not count a legatee above the third without consent. One example: all to Zayd and a third to Amr. With consent the division rises to four parts (three to Zayd, one to Amr); without consent the third is divided on four, and the base of the bequest is twelve by the majority view. The Hanafi figures for the case where the two sons do not consent (p.17343) are garbled in the scan, so they are not given here; the reading is doubtful and flagged. The third case is the combination of bequests of parts with bequests of shares. It has several forms: a bequest equal to an heir's share together with a fraction of the whole estate, a fraction of what remains after a share, and a share bequest with a part of the estate excepted. In the Hanafi example with two sons, one legatee gets a third and another an amount equal to one son's share; with both sons consenting the account runs from nine, so the third-legatee takes three and the rest is divided among the two sons and the share-legatee in thirds, giving each son two and the share-legatee two. If only one son consents, the account grows to a base of eighteen. The Shafi'is treat the share-legatee as one of the heirs when the bequest does not exceed the third; the Hanbalis have two views, the preferred one giving the share-legatee a third of the estate on consent, and the other giving him what a son receives. For a bequest of a part of what remains after a share, the Hanafi example of five sons gives a base of fifty-one: eight to the share-legatee, three to the legatee of a third of what remains, and eight to each son. The Maliki, Shafi'i and Hanbali examples on the next pages use unknown quantities and the method of correction; the figures are in the book's worked lines and are summarised here, not reproduced. A share bequest with an exception of part of the estate: the Hanbali example of one son and a bequest equal to his share except half the estate gives the legatee a quarter. For three sons and a bequest equal to one share except a seventh of the estate, the arithmetic is run on a base of sixty-three. The exception that accompanies shares and fractions comes in four kinds. First, a part of what remains after the share (five sons, base fifty-seven). Second, a part of what remains after the bequest (three sons, with the base of thirteen). Third, a part of what remains of a part after the bequest. Fourth, a part of what remains of a part of the estate after the share, with a base of thirty-nine for three sons. When the testator states an exception without saying whether it is after the share or after the bequest, there are two views. The first, which Ibn Qudama attributes to most jurists, reads it as after the share, because the share is what was named. The second reads it as after the bequest, which yields the larger exception and so the smaller legacy; the legacies are read on the surest minimum. This second view is that of most Shafi'is and is attributed by Ibn Qudama to Muhammad al-Shaybani and to the Basran jurists.

• وَطْء

  Wat', lexically, is standing over a thing; it is also used for intercourse, the insertion of a male member into a female's sexual organ until the two are as one. The technical sense does not depart from the lexical. Related words: nikah, whose root is joining and gathering, is used in the strict sense for the marriage contract and in a figurative sense for intercourse, or the reverse, as the lexicographers and jurists differ; liwat is intercourse with males, which falls under the wider wat'. First, wat' as intercourse. It is either lawful or forbidden. The lawful is intercourse with a wife or a concubine, which may be forbidden at times, such as during menstruation or post-natal bleeding, before a zihar is expiated, in ihram, while fasting or in i'tikaf. The forbidden is either of a kind that could be lawful in another case, such as intercourse with a woman who may be married to one, which carries the penalty of zina, or of a kind that can never be lawful, such as sodomy, anal intercourse with a wife or a non-wife, and bestiality. The causes that make intercourse lawful are the marriage contract and ownership of the right hand. Ownership of a female slave is lawful without a contract, because ownership of the person carries the use. The Qur'an alludes to this in the sura of al-Mu'minun (cited by sura only) without a verse being quoted here. The ruling: the majority of jurists hold that intercourse with a wife or concubine is in principle permitted, being a pleasure that the natural disposition calls for, with no obedience or disobedience in itself. It becomes recommended with a good intention, such as keeping oneself chaste from the unlawful, may become obligatory when it is the only means of chastity for oneself or one's household, and may be forbidden or disliked according to circumstances. Ibn al-Qayyim lists the purposes of intercourse: preserving the progeny, releasing the water that harms the body if it is retained, and the fulfilment of desire and pleasure; its benefits include lowering the gaze, restraining the self and securing chastity. The reward for lawful intercourse: the report of Abu Dharr that 'in the intimacy of one of you there is charity' is cited; the majority hold that a man is rewarded for intercourse with his wife when accompanied by a good intention, such as keeping himself or his wife from the unlawful, fulfilling her right in proper companionship, or seeking a righteous child. Where the man intends nothing but the fulfilment of his desire, the jurists differ: Ibn Qutayba holds he is rewarded in every case, while Ibn Hajar al-Haytami and others say there is no reward where no such intention exists. Intercourse and its rewards: a Muslim is rewarded for what he spends on his household if he seeks the reward of God in it; if this is so for obligatory spending, it is more so for lawful intercourse, as the book states. The courtesies and recommended acts of intercourse: it is recommended to begin with the basmala; to turn away from the qibla out of respect for it; to begin with play, embrace and kissing, so that the woman's desire rises; to take care to reach the satisfaction of both together; to cover oneself with a cloth; to lower the voice and speak little. It is disliked for a man to have intercourse where he can be seen or his sounds heard, and forbidden when the private parts are exposed. It is recommended for one who wishes to repeat intercourse to wash his private part and perform wudu', and ghusl is better; the book cites the report that the Prophet went round his wives with a single ghusl. Speaking about intercourse and disclosing its secrets: the jurists differ. The Hanafis, a Hanbali view which al-Mardawi prefers, and al-Nawawi hold that boasting of intercourse and disclosing what passes between spouses is forbidden, on the report of Abu Sa'id about the worst of people in rank before God and the saying that spreading (such talk) is forbidden. Ibn al-Qayyim, al-Haytami and others count it among the major sins. The school view of the Hanbalis is that the spouses' speaking of what passes between them is disliked, even to a co-wife. Impediments to lawful intercourse: there are nine. The jurists agree on six of them, namely menstruation, post-natal bleeding, i'tikaf, fasting, ihram and zihar before its expiation; they differ on three, namely istihada, failure to wash after the end of menstruation, and residence in the abode of war. First, menstruation: the jurists agree that intercourse with a menstruating woman in the vagina is forbidden, on the verse of sura al-Baqara (cited by sura only) and the saying that one may do everything except intercourse. Second, post-natal bleeding: the jurists agree that intercourse in the vagina is forbidden, and that its rules, including washing and expiation, are those of menstruation. Third, istihada: the jurists differ on whether intercourse with an irregularly bleeding woman is permitted. The majority of Hanafis, Shafi'is and Malikis, and one Hanbali report, permit it, a view reported by Ibn al-Mundhir from Ibn 'Abbas, Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab, al-Hasan, Ata and others, citing that she is pure of menstruation and the case of Hamna bint Jahsh, whose husband Talha had intercourse with her while she bled. Istihada, the second view, which some jurists hold: intercourse with an irregularly bleeding woman is forbidden, because the blood is blood of menstruation, and the cause of the prohibition, menstruation, is present in her, so the prohibition applies to her. Fourth, i'tikaf. The jurists agree that intercourse during i'tikaf is forbidden and invalidates it, by night or by day, if intentional, on the verse of sura al-Baqara on i'tikaf in the mosque (the detail under i'tikaf). Fifth, fasting. The jurists agree that intentional intercourse by a fasting person in Ramadan is forbidden, invalidates the fast and requires expiation, whether he ejaculates or not, on the report of Abu Hurayra of the man who had intercourse with his wife while fasting in Ramadan and was given dates to give in charity, which the book quotes. Sixth, ihram. The jurists agree that intercourse by a pilgrim in hajj or umra is forbidden, on the verse of sura al-Baqara, in which 'rafath' is explained as intercourse and the talk that accompanies it. An intercourse before standing at 'Arafat invalidates the pilgrimage, while after the first release it does not; the views differ on the period between standing at 'Arafat and the first release. Seventh, zihar. There is no dispute that intercourse with a woman on whom zihar has been pronounced is forbidden before expiation, on the verse of sura al-Mujadila and the report of Ibn 'Abbas of the man who had intercourse before expiating, whom the Prophet told to ask forgiveness and not to repeat it until he had expiated. Eighth, a Muslim's intercourse with his wife in the abode of war. The majority of Hanafis, Malikis and Shafi'is hold it disliked, fearing offspring there, since the Muslim is forbidden to settle in the abode of war, citing the saying of the Prophet that he is free of every Muslim who lives among the polytheists, which al-Bukhari judged to be a mursal report. The Hanbalis hold that a Muslim may not have intercourse with his wife in the abode of war except by necessity, and that when necessity arises he must practise withdrawal. (b) Forbidden intercourse: its kinds are adultery, sodomy, intercourse with a wife or a non-wife in the anus, with a dead woman, and with an animal. First, adultery is forbidden by the consensus of the jurists and is one of the greatest major sins, on the verse of sura al-Isra cited by sura and number. Second, sodomy: the jurists agree it is forbidden with the greatest severity and is a major sin; al-Mawardi calls it the most grievous of abominations and notes that no one in the worlds did it before the people of Lot. The penalty for sodomy: the jurists give six views, of which the book sets out the first four. The first, held by the Shafi'i and Hanbali school views, by Abu Yusuf, Muhammad, al-Thawri, al-Awza'i and Abu Thawr, is that the penalty for sodomy is that of adultery: a married offender is stoned and an unmarried one is flogged; they cite a report from Abu Musa that when a man comes to a man, both are adulterers, which al-Bayhaqi calls a rejected chain. The second, held by Abu Hanifa, Hammad ibn Abi Sulayman and al-Hakam, is that there is no hadd but discretionary punishment and imprisonment until death or repentance, and that a repeat offender is killed by the ruler at a second offence, married or not, as policy; the reason given is that the act is not the name of adultery. The third, held by the Malikis, is that the penalty is stoning in every case, for the active and passive partner, married or not, citing the general wording of the hadith on killing both partners. The fourth, held by al-Shafi'i in one view and by Ishaq ibn Rahawayh, is that the offender is killed by the sword like an apostate, married or not, a view attributed by the book to a number of Companions and Successors. The fifth and sixth views are not yet read at this point of the scan. Intercourse with a wife or a female slave in the anus: the book reports this view from several Companions and Successors; al-Mawardi says it is the position of the Companions, most Successors and jurists. Several jurists, Ibn al-Nahhas, al-Haytami and Ibn al-Qayyim among them, state that it is among the major sins. The jurists hold that there is no hadd for it, because a wife or slave is in some sense a place of enjoyment, which creates a doubt that averts the hadd; the majority hold that discretionary punishment (ta'zir) is due, as the Hanafis, Malikis and Hanbalis state, and the Shafi'is hold that it is due if repeated. The jurists cite hadiths on the subject, referenced in the book's notes, the reasoning that the anus is not a place made for intercourse, that it is a constant harm, and that it denies the wife her right to enjoyment. Views the book attributes to Ibn 'Umar in one report, Zayd ibn Aslam, Nafi' in one report, some Shafi'is, and Malik in one view, permit it. The scholars replied that the verse's word 'anna' means 'from where', that the explanation by Muhammad ibn Ka'b al-Qurazi is rejected, and that the reports of Ibn 'Umar, Nafi' and Malik denying the permission are the sounder ones; the book records the views without adding its own ruling. Fourth, intercourse with a non-wife in the anus: there is no dispute that it is forbidden and a major sin. There are four views on its penalty: the first, of the Malikis, Hanbalis, Shafi'is in the school view and the two companions of Abu Hanifa, is the hadd for adultery; the second, of Abu Hanifa and one Shafi'i view, is that there is no hadd but discretionary punishment; the third, of the Maliki judge Abu al-Hasan, equates it with sodomy, and Ibn 'Aqil says the hadd of sodomy applies; the fourth, of some Shafi'is, is death by the sword as a hadd. Fifth, intercourse with a dead woman: there is no dispute that it is forbidden, and al-Haytami counts it among the major sins. There are two views on the penalty: the first, of the Hanafis, the sounder Shafi'i view and the Hanbali preferred view, that there is no hadd and only discretionary punishment; the second, of the Malikis in the better-known view, the Shafi'is in a view against the sounder, some Hanbalis and al-Awza'i, that the hadd applies. The Malikis exempt a husband who has intercourse with his dead wife from the hadd. Sixth, intercourse with an animal: the jurists agree it is forbidden, citing the general wording of the verse of sura al-Mu'minun and the hadith of Abu Hurayra about the one who has intercourse with an animal; several of the hadiths the book cites are judged weak in their chains in the notes. Several jurists count it among the major sins. The jurists differ on the penalty for it in four views; the first, held by Jabir ibn Zayd, al-Hasan ibn Ali, al-Hasan al-Basri, al-Shafi'i and one Ahmad view, is listed here, and the list continues beyond p.17503. The penalty for intercourse with an animal, the remaining views: the third is that of al-Zuhri, who holds the lighter of the two hadd penalties applies, one hundred lashes, whether married or not. The fourth, held by the majority of Hanafis, the Shafi'is in the more likely view, the Malikis and the Hanbali school, is that no hadd applies and discretionary punishment is due; this is reported from Ibn 'Abbas, 'Ata', al-Sha'bi, al-Nakha'i, al-Hakam, al-Thawri and Ishaq. The Hanafis say the ruler may kill the offender who repeats it, al-Bayri judges a second offence to warrant death, and the Hanbalis press the discretionary punishment hard. The majority argue that the act is wrong, to be changed by the hand, and that no report establishes a hadd. A woman who lets an animal such as a dog or monkey approach her is treated as one who has intercourse with an animal, according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis. Killing the animal used: three views. The Hanafis, Malikis and the sounder Shafi'i view do not require it, because the hadith ordering its killing is weak and because the Prophet forbade killing animals except for food. The Hanafis recommend slaughtering it and burning it if it is not eaten. The Hanbalis and a Shafi'i view require killing it in every case, citing the hadith 'whoever has intercourse with an animal, kill him and kill the animal with him'. A third view kills it only when the offender owns it; the book attributes this to al-Tahawi. If the animal belongs to another, the jurists differ on liability: the Hanbalis and the Shafi'i view that requires killing hold the offender liable, while the Hanafis say the owner is asked to hand it over for its value and then it is slaughtered. Eating an animal used in this way after slaughter: three views. The Hanbali school view and the two companions of Abu Hanifa, with a Shafi'i view, forbid it; one Ahmad report disapproves without forbidding it; Abu Hanifa, the Malikis and the Shafi'i school view permit it without disapproval, citing the verse of sura al-Ma'ida that permits grazing animals. Intercourse by mistake (wat' bi-shubha): the act is forbidden but does not bring the hadd, because a doubt removes the intent to commit adultery; the types of doubt are treated under their own heading. Rules of intercourse. The wife's right over her husband: she has a right that he have intercourse with her and satisfy her desire, as the report of Abd Allah ibn Amr shows: 'your body has a right over you, and your wife has a right over you', and the saying to Abu al-Darda'. The jurists give four views on the extent and duty of this right. The Hanafis and a Shafi'i view hold that the wife may ask for intercourse, and that a husband must comply once by judgement, while more is owed before God as a matter of good companionship; the Shafi'is hold no duty and no sin in leaving it, though it is recommended not to leave a wife without intercourse out of protection for her. The remaining views are not complete in these pages. Measure of the wife's right to intercourse (the remaining views): the Malikis, in the more likely view, hold that a wife is due one night in every four; Abu al-Hasan al-Saghir reports from Abu Imran views on the least that may be enforced, one night in four, or one night in three, and 'Umar decided once in each purity because the husband makes her pregnant. The fourth view, of the Hanbali school, is that the husband must have intercourse with his wife at least once in four months if he has no excuse; they argue that intercourse is a right of both spouses, and that a wife's consent is needed for withdrawal. Ibn Taymiyya and Ibn al-Qayyim hold that intercourse must be in accordance with custom, in proportion to the wife's need and the husband's ability, with no fixed number; the book notes that some hold he must satisfy her as he must feed her, which Ibn Taymiyya preferred. If the spouses dispute the right, the judge sets it by custom and their circumstances; Ibn Taymiyya holds that harm to the wife from its withholding permits dissolution in every case. The husband's right over his wife: the husband may ask his wife for intercourse whenever he wishes, except where a lawful impediment exists, such as menstruation, post-natal bleeding, zihar or ihram; when the impediment is absent she must comply. The jurists al-Dhahabi, al-Rafi'i, al-Nawawi, Ibn al-Rif'a and al-Haytami count a wife's refusal without excuse as a form of disobedience and a major sin, citing the strong warnings in the hadith. The husband need not comply when his wife asks, unless he intends to harm her, in which case it is forbidden. The wife's right to separation when the husband is unable to have intercourse (impotence, castration, or sexual incapacity): the jurists distinguish incapacity that exists at the contract from incapacity arising after consummation, and a wife who knew of the defect from one who did not. The detail is under divorce. The husband's right to annul the marriage when the wife has a defect that prevents intercourse (such as an occluded passage or a horn-like growth): the jurists differ on two views; detail under its heading. Withholding intercourse by oath (iyla) or by zihar. Iyla: there is no dispute that the husband who swears not to have intercourse has four months, the period set in sura al-Baqara. If he persists until four months pass, the wife may take the matter to the judge, who orders him to return, then to divorce; if he refuses the judge divorces on his behalf, the view of the majority of Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis; the Hanafis say divorce takes effect on the lapse of four months without the judge. Zihar: the majority hold intercourse with a wife on whom zihar has been pronounced forbidden before expiation; a Hanbali report permits it where the expiation is by feeding; the details are under zihar. Zihar, continued: the wife may take the matter to the judge if the husband refuses expiation; the judge orders him to expiate, and if he refuses, compels him by disciplinary means until he expiates or divorces; this is the Hanafi view, since the husband has harmed her by making her unlawful to him. The Malikis distinguish a husband unable to expiate, who is divorced by the judge, from one able to do so, who is granted four months as in iyla, after which he is told to divorce or expiate. The Hanbalis say a zihar husband is not ordered to resume intercourse, since it is forbidden before expiation, and is given time to free a slave, feed the poor or fast, according to his means. The wife's right to withhold herself until she receives her dower: the jurists agree that once the husband has handed over the dower she must allow him access when he asks, with no lawful impediment; she may not refuse if the whole dower is deferred, or if the deferred part is the larger, because her acceptance of the deferral is acceptance of handing herself over. The Hanafis limit this to a condition that intercourse occur before the term, to which she agreed. For a prompt dower, the majority of Hanafis, Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis hold that she may withhold herself until she receives the prompt portion, since the dower is a return for the womb as the price is for the goods; Ibn al-Mundhir reports consensus on this. The effect of intercourse on the right to withhold after she has allowed access: two views. The first, of Abu Hanifa and Ibn Hamid among the Hanbalis, is that she may still withhold until she is paid, since the contract covers each act of intercourse; the second, of Abu Yusuf, Muhammad, the Shafi'is, Malikis and the Hanbali school, is that she may not, because her handing herself over was consent to the dower remaining a debt. When the deferred dower falls due before the wife hands herself over: two views. The first, of the preferred Hanafi view, the sounder Shafi'i view and the Hanbalis, is that she may not withhold, since the right of retention fell away by her consent to the deferral. The second, of one Shafi'i view, the Malikis and Abu Yusuf, is that she may withhold, since it is now like a prompt dower; Abu Yusuf limits this to cases in which the husband did not stipulate intercourse before the term. The dispute over who starts the handing over: the Hanafis and Malikis hold that the husband must hand over first, since the husband's right is fixed by the contract while the wife's right to the dower is fixed by receiving it; Malik disliked the wife's allowing access before receiving a quarter dinar, as a right of God. The Hanbalis and a Shafi'i view compel the husband first, then the wife. The preferred Shafi'i view has both compelled together, by deposit of the dower with a trustee who is neither party's agent. A third Shafi'i view compels neither, since the rights are equal. Stipulating in the marriage contract that intercourse will not be lawful, or that it will not occur: all agree the stipulation is void, but differ on its effect on the contract. The majority of Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis hold both the stipulation and the contract void, because it defeats the purpose of the contract. The Hanafis hold the stipulation invalid but the contract valid, since a marriage is not voided by an invalid condition. For the stipulation that intercourse will not occur, there are three views: the Hanafis and Hanbalis hold the contract valid and the condition void; the Malikis hold both void, and among them the preferred view allows annulment before consummation and not after, with the condition falling away; the Shafi'is hold the contract void if the condition came from the wife, but harmless if from the husband, since intercourse is his right. Withdrawal (azl), meaning withdrawing before ejaculation into the womb: the majority allow it for a master with his slave-woman, whether or not she consents, the consensus being reported by al-Qarafi; the views on withdrawal from a free wife are detailed under their own heading. Nursing intercourse (ghila): all agree it is permitted, on the report of Judhama bint Wahb in which the Prophet intended to forbid it, then mentioned that Rome and Persia did it without harm to their children. Intercourse with a pregnant woman: some jurists disliked it, citing the saying 'do not kill your children secretly'; the majority permit it, citing the report of the man who asked the Prophet about withdrawal and was told that if it is needed then there is no harm, as it did no harm to Persia and Rome. The effects of intercourse: (a) it confirms the full named dower, according to the Hanafis, Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis, since intercourse is the fulfilment of the purpose; (b) it establishes the waiting period after divorce, by the verse of sura al-Ahzab; (c) it is the act that makes an oath of iyla void; (d) in a valid marriage, intercourse of the kind that requires ghusl is a condition of ihsan for adultery; (e) it restores a revocable divorce, in the view of the Hanafis, Hanbalis and Malikis, if the husband intends to take the wife back, against the Shafi'is; (f) its effect on the permissibility of divorce, a division detailed under divorce. The effect of intercourse on divorce, continued: a lawful divorce is pronounced on a wife in a state of purity without intercourse during that purity, or when she is pregnant and her pregnancy is evident. An unlawful divorce is one pronounced during menstruation, or in the purity in which intercourse took place; for a wife not yet consummated, divorce during menstruation or purity is lawful. On whether a bid'a divorce takes effect: the majority of Hanafis, Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis hold that it takes effect, and the husband is sinful, citing Ibn 'Umar's divorce of his wife during menstruation, after which the Prophet ordered him to take her back. Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn al-Qayyim, Ibn Hazm and al-Shawkani, and a view attributed to Ibn 'Umar and Tawus, hold that it does not take effect, because it contradicts the Prophet's command. The effect of intercourse on the hadd for adultery: the intercourse that triggers the hadd is the insertion of at least the head of a sane, adult male's member into a desirable vagina that is not the man's own property or subject to a doubt in the land of Islam; detail under adultery. The effect of intercourse on ghusl: the meeting of the two circumcised parts (the head passing into the vagina) requires ghusl for man and woman, on the report of 'A'isha, and the report of Abu Hurayra adds 'even if he does not ejaculate'. The effect of intercourse on a woman divorced three times: she may not be lawful to her first husband until she marries another husband, on the verse of sura al-Baqara; the majority hold that she is not lawful to the first until the second husband has intercourse with her, with the meeting of the circumcised parts, even without ejaculation; Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab holds that the first may remarry her if the second marriage is sound and not intended to make her lawful. The effect of intercourse on marriage affinity: there is no dispute that the contract with a daughter makes her mother, however high, unlawful for ever, by the contract alone, whether or not intercourse took place, and likewise sons' and fathers' wives. A stepdaughter is forbidden by two conditions, the contract with her mother and intercourse with the mother; without intercourse, the prohibition does not hold. The effect of intercourse on expiations: (1) intercourse with a menstruating wife. Four views: the Hanafis and the sounder Shafi'i view require no expiation, only a recommended alms of a dinar or half a dinar; the Hanbalis and one Shafi'i view require a dinar or half a dinar at the choice of the husband, on a report from Ibn 'Abbas; the Malikis, al-Thawri, al-Layth and one Ahmad report require only repentance and seeking forgiveness; al-Hasan al-Basri and Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab require the expiation for intercourse in Ramadan. (2) Intercourse while fasting in Ramadan: most scholars require expiation and making up the day, whether or not there is ejaculation, on the report of Abu Hurayra of the man who had intercourse with his wife in Ramadan. Intercourse during the pilgrimage: the jurists agree that a pilgrim who has intercourse before standing at 'Arafat invalidates his hajj and must give a sacrifice; the Hanafis require a sheep and the Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis a camel. Intercourse after standing and before the first release requires a camel by agreement; after the first release the Hanafis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis require a sheep and Malik a camel. Intercourse and the fast: the jurists agree that intercourse by one who fasts in Ramadan invalidates the fast, whether or not he ejaculates. If it was forgotten, the majority of Hanafis, Shafi'is, one Ahmad report, al-Thawri, al-Hasan and Mujahid hold the fast is not invalidated; the Malikis, the school view of the Hanbalis and Ata' hold it is invalidated like an intentional act. Intercourse and the pilgrimage: the jurists agree that intercourse before standing at 'Arafat invalidates the pilgrimage, which must be completed as an invalid one and made up later, and that it does not invalidate it after standing and the first release. Between standing and the first release, the Shafi'is, Malikis and Hanbalis hold it invalidates the pilgrimage, while the Hanafis say it does not. Treading on the mushaf: there is no dispute that a Muslim who treads on it to show contempt becomes an apostate; under compulsion or necessity he does not. Treading on graves: the grave is to be respected, so treading on it or sitting on it is disliked, according to the majority, on the report of 'Uqba ibn 'Amir and the words attributed to Ibn Mas'ud. The Shafi'is and Hanbalis dislike it except out of necessity; walking among graves is not disliked for the Shafi'is, while the Hanbalis dislike it in shoes but not in boots. The Hanafis dislike sitting on it except out of necessity. The Malikis dislike it under conditions: the grave is raised, the path is beside it, and some of the bones are presumed to remain. Animals treading with a foot: the Hanafis, Malikis, Shafi'is and Hanbalis agree that what an animal tramples with its hoof, head or foot in its course is a liability for whoever is with it, rider, leader or driver, when the damage can be attributed to his fault or negligence; if not, there is no liability, on the saying 'the animal's wound is unpunished'. Al-Shafi'i holds the leader, driver and rider liable for what it strikes with hand, mouth, foot or tail, and that the one who makes it trample something is the one liable; al-Nawawi notes that a skittish animal may not be ridden in markets.

• وَثِيقة

  Wathiqa in the lexical sense is the making firm of a matter; technically it is what is taken to secure a right against loss through denial, forgetting, insolvency or other hazards. Its basis is the Qur'anic verses on debt and the Prophet's saying 'the guarantor is liable'. There are three kinds: witness against denial, pledge and surety against insolvency, and writing against forgetting. Most jurists hold the command to write a recommendation, not an obligation, since Muslims sell on deferred prices without writing or witness, while some, including al-Tabari, hold it obligatory. The purpose of writing and witness is that a debt whose payment is deferred suffers forgetting and denial. A pledge is property held as security for a debt, to be paid from its price if the debtor cannot pay; a surety joins the guarantor's liability to that of the debtor, so the right holds against both.
