WHY BEHIND MEN?
In the Name of Allāh. This is faith-shaking! Can someone pose this logical challenge? For those in Da’wah, this may be chiefly useful to you. A non-Muslim asked: “Why do women stay behind men in the Muslims’ prayer (i.e. Salah)? Uh! How do you answer that? As Muslims, our concern is evidence before doing anything […]

WHO IS AT FAULT?
In the Name of Allah. There was a trainee in carpentry that didn’t complete his training. But, he obtained a space somewhere and placed signage for people to patronize him.
