Salams Zaman Bro
 

This question was asked by Bro Pyan circa 14 September. Below are basically the content of my reply of the similar question:

 

I obtained advise from the Majlisul Ulama and they have explained on the basis of Qur'an & Hadith that in terms of custom, there is no Sunnat custom when entering a new house.

Further it was explained that sometimes on marriage occasions, opening a new business and moving into a new house, people Khatam the Qur'an and Collective Du'a is then made, followed thereafter by refreshments. This is bid'ah practice. Participation in these customs of bid'ah is not permissible.

The main thing to start practicing here is the Dua' to be recited when entering the house.

However, in general, it is good to pray 2 raka'ats of voluntary prayer (or more), and then make du'a that Allah make the house a place of baraqah, serenity, worship, and good. It would be good to have a dinner once one settles in, inviting people you know there and those you are beginning to know. This is based on the following Hadith:

Rasulullah SAW was asked:

 "What is the best of faith?"

Nabi SAW replied:

"Feed others, and give Salams to those you know and those you do not know."  (Bukhari & Muslim)

JKK for the info.

 

Is the practice of reciting the azan on all four corners of the house considered as bida’ah? I have read somewhere that it is sunnah to recite the Takbir on all 4 corners of Kaabah upon entering it. Can we perform this upon entering a new house?

Yes, the calling of Adhan at the corners of the house would be considered Bid'ah, because the actual remedy against the Makhluk & Shaytaan is Ayatul Kursi. As far as I am aware, Adhan is to call people for prayers, as well as for welcoming the newborn.

 

I have not heard / have been taught or read about the Sunnah recitation of Takbir before entering the Ka'abah. But even if this were true, this specific form of ritual will not be applicable nor permissible to our own house. In analogy, similarly we are not permitted to make Tawaf around our own house.

 

May I know - whose house is this Bro? Who is moving in?

[Noorulzaman Abdul Kadir]

Salams Bro,

 

This is for our newly completed family house in Sungai Buloh. InshaAllah my elder brother Batharul Zaman will be moving in with his 2 wives and 13 kids (2 more on the way) J before Aidil Adha. So basically the tertib would be:

 

1. Clean the house
2. Sunat prayers
3. Du’a
4. Makan (kambing) J

Swear on the Al Quaran

 

I have witnessed something that I have found quiet disturbing. Basically, at my work place, there was a case of sexual harassment (I am talking about physical contact, kissing, touching). Later this was know to everyone in the office and accused felt that he needs to clear things up.

 

In the end, he has invited selected people (2 persons) to his office to explain the situation. He has not admitted that he has done wrong, instead, he pulled out the Al Quaran, put his hand on it, and said "I have not done anything to this woman" (to its nearest meaning).

 

However, this has not convinced invitees, and they have questioned him further. In the end, this guy has admitted that he has done wrong to this woman, he has not clarify details of the incident, however information about the incident came from woman herself.

 

Do you see where I am going with this? How could anyone do such a thing, especially when it involves Al Quaran? I have also heard from different sources that this is a standard practice of many Arabs (based on experience of doing business with Arabs). Basically, I’d like to understand better, what is going through this people’s mind when they do such things?

 

I have asked other people view on this, but it seems as if I am the only one most upset about the incident. Basically, I was told that yes it is not good to do this, but it is ok, due to interpretations. Such as, he did say that he didn't do anything to her, but he could have meant sexual intercourse, where in fact none of this has happened, he only kissed and touched private parts. Thus, he has not committed the sin of lying.

 

Finally, I was told, that it is permissible to lie while putting your hand on Al Quaran and mentioning God’s name if this would save you from harm, like loosing your job, getting killed and etc…

 

Any comments?

It is Haraam & not permissible for any Muslim to lie - whether they touch the Qur'an or not.

 

Whatever that has happened is due to lack of Imaan. The words that are uttered by a Believer has value.

 

When a Muslim promises to obey Allah SWT, he/she does so in everything in life i.e. the five times daily prayer, the Ramadhan fast, clean business dealings, keeping promises, fulfiling the rights of family, friends, Muslims as well as non-Muslims, and all inside the spectrum of a Muslim's life.
