It does not say "haram" sister haya.....we should avoid the styles of the non believers. Jeans and tea-shirts are also not haram though obviously lose clothing similar to sunnah attire would be better

Reminder

Yes if sisters wish to traverse this path then one of the ways is to make the pledge to a qualified shaykh and the Mashaikh are male. It is done from behind the curtain or from another room altogether or by mail. There is no "meeting" the shaykh and also the permission of a mahram is necessary. We need to be careful as there are many "Fake" mashaikh who meet women, shake hands, talk to them and even visit homes. Totally unislamic and unacceptable, may Allah ta'ala protect and guide

easy peasy : )

When Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) saw a town which he intended entering, he would recite the above-mentioned duaa. One should also recite the following Duaa: اَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَق I seek protection through the perfect and beneficial words of Allah Ta’ala (i.e. His names and attributes) from the evil (harm) of His creation. عن خولة بنت حكيم السلمية أنها سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول إذا نزل أحدكم منزلا فليقل أعوذ بكلمات الله التامات من شر ما خلق فإنه لا يضره شيء حتى يرتحل منه (مسلم رقم 2708) Hadhrat Khaula (Radhiallahu Anha) reports that she had heard Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) say: “If anyone of you halts at any place, and he recites the following duaa, then no harm will come to him from the time he halts till the time he departs. اَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ 2.

Sunnats and Aadaab of Safr (Travelling) – Part 9 1. One should adopt a gentle approach when dealing with one’s companions and engage in light-hearted discussions while on the journey. One should not adopt a serious approach. 2. Do not undertake a journey unnecessarily. If one has a need then one should undertake the journey, and upon completing one’s need one should hasten to return home. عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال السفر قطعة من العذاب يمنع أحدكم طعامه وشرابه ونومه فإذا قضى نهمته فليعجل إلى أهله (بخاري رقم 1804) Hadhrat Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “Travelling (i.e. its difficulty is like) a portion of the difficulty of the punishment of Jahannum which prevents one from his food, drink and sleep. Thus, when one completes his work he should hasten back to his family. 3. When travelling, one should guard his gaze and as far as possible, try to avoid sitting next to females. One should avoid speaking to the air-hostesses or any na-mahram. قُل لِلمُؤمِنينَ يَغُضّوا مِن أَبصـٰرِهِم وَيَحفَظوا فُروجَهُم ذٰلِكَ أَزكىٰ لَهُم إِنَّ اللَّـهَ خَبيرٌ بِما يَصنَعونَ (سورة النور) Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their chastity, that will be more pure for them: And Allah Ta’ala is fully aware of all that they do. عن معقل بن يسار رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم لأن يطعن في رأس أحدكم بمخيط من حديد خير له من أن يمس امرأة لا تحل له رواه الطبراني والبيهقي ورجال الطبراني ثقات رجال الصحيح (الترغبي و الترهيب رقم 2938) Hadhrat Ma’qal bin Yasaar (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “It is better for you that your head be pierced with an iron needle than touching a woman that is impermissible for you.” 4.

The Finality of Prophethood of the Last Messenger, Muhammad Sall-Allahu Alayhi wa Sallam By Mufti Zubair Bayat Scores of Qur'anic verses, and dozens of ahadith of the Holy Prophet Muhammad can be cited in support of the belief on the "Finality of prophethood". To reproduce all the Qur'anic verses and the ahadith supporting this belief would be beyond the scope of this short article. By way of example, a single verse, some ahadith and the explanations of the scholars follow, leaving no doubt concerning the issue of the finality of prophethood. QURANIC VERSE "Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the apostle of Allah and the seal of the prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things." (Ahzab 33:40). In this verse, the Holy Prophet Muhammadhas been described as the "Seal of the prophets" or the "Last of the prophets". This verse from the Holy Qur'an is the most clear-cut evidence for the belief of "Khatmun-Nubuwwat" (finality of prophethood). The well known scholar Hafiz Ibn-Katheer rahmatullahi alayhi writes in his book: "This verse is a clear evidence for this belief that there is no prophet after the Holy Prophet Muhammad ." (Tafseer Ibn-Katheer) It is thus incumbent upon Muslims to believe that Prophethood has ended with the advent of Hazrat Muhammad. This belief in the finality of Prophethood has been an established belief of the Muslims since the time of the Prophet. Every time a false prophet has arisen, the Muslims recognised him as false because belief in the finality of Prophethood has been established as part of the Muslim's fundamental beliefs. Without a shadow of doubt, the finality of Prophethood is something that is an essential belief in the religion of Islam. Hence the rejection of this belief is Kufr and any person who rejects this belief is out of the fold of Islam, no matter what claims he makes to the contrary. In the history of Islam there have been a number of false claimants of prophethood who were outrightly rejected by the Muslim Ummah as apostates and renegades. QADIANI IMPOSTER One such claimant was the comical Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani. He founded his deviated cult in India in the latter part of the 19th Century. Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani claimed prophethood, with no evidence for such a claim apart from incoherent ranting and illogical arguments. Like all fraudsters of the past, he has been rejected vehemently by the Muslim Ummah and exposed as an imposter, and declared as a disbeliever (kafir) by the leading scholars (Ulama) and the Ummah as a whole. A great scholar, Imam al-Tahawi (d. 321 AH) in al-Aqidah al-Tahawiyya states: "Every claim to prophethood after him is falsehood and deceit.” Another great scholar, Hafiz Ibn-Katheer states: “Allah Most Blessed and Exalted has stated in His book, as has His Messenger in the traditions via numerous channels of transmission (mutawatir) that there will be no prophet after him, so that whoever claims this rank thereafter is a lying pretender, misled and misleading, even if he should stage miracles and exhibit all kinds of magic, talismans and spells." AHADITH The Prophet said: (1) "Apostleship and prophethood have ceased. There will be no messenger or prophet after me." [Musnad-Ahmad] (2) "My likeness among the prophets is as a man who, having built a house put the finishing touches on it and made it seemly, yet left one place without a brick. When anyone entered it and saw this, he would exclaim, 'How excellent it is, but for the place of this brick.' Now, I am the place of the brick: through me the line of prophets has been brought to completion." [sahih-al-Bukhari] (3) "The Children of Israel used to be ruled and guided by prophets: Whenever a prophet died, another would take over his place. There will be no prophet after me, but there will be Caliphs who will increase in number.” [sahih-al-Bukhari; 4.661] (4) The Messenger of Allah set out for Tabuk appointing 'Ali as his deputy (in Medina). 'Ali said, "Do you want to leave me with the children and women?" The Prophet said, "Will you not be pleased that you will be to me like Haroon was to Moosa? But there will be no prophet after me." [sahih-al-Bukhari; 5.700] (5) "The Hour will not come till (1) two big groups fight each other whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both sides and they will be following one and the same religious doctrine (2) about thirty dajjals (liars) appear, and each one of them will claim that he is Allah's Apostle (3) the religious knowledge is taken away (by the death of religious scholars) (4) earthquakes will increase in number (5) time will pass quickly (6) afflictions will appear (7) Al-Harj (i.e., killing) will increase (8) wealth will be in abundance . . .” [sahih-al-Bukhari; 9.237] CONCLUSION The above is just a sampling of the large amount of evidence that proves conclusively that there shall be no prophets after the Prophet Muhammad . In the face of such overwhelming evidence in support of the finality of prophethood, the ludicrous claims of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani and his followers, who still regard themselves as Muslims, is absolutely untenable and rejected outright. For the Qadianis, the only recourse is to make sincere Taubah and return to the correct beliefs of Islam. Until they do not renounce the deviated ideology of the imposter Mirza and sincerely repent by submitting wholeheartedly to the belief of finality of prophethood as explained by the scholars of Islam throughout the centuries, they cannot and will not be regarded as Muslims.

Using lotions, perfumes, Lip balm, hairgels containing impure substances? As for your question, If these perfumes and hair gels etc. contain impure substance like urine, stool etc. then it will not be permissible to use them. The same would be the case it they have grapes or dates based alcohol. However, if they have ethyl alcohol or other synthetic non-khamr alcohol in them, then it will be permissible to use them. Wallahu A'lam (Mufti AbuHajira)

From their website: Their Message:

Rashad Khalifa immigrated to the United States in 1959, where he earned a Ph.D in biochemistry. He became a naturalized U.S. citizen, living in Tucson, Arizona. He founded the religious group called United Submitters International (USI), a group which considers itself to be the true Islam, but prefers not to use the terms "Muslim" or "Islam," instead using the English equivalents of the Arabic: "Submitter" or "Submission." Submitters believe Khalifa was a messenger of God and refer to him as God's messenger of the covenant as prophesied in the Quran and Bible, after which today's "corrupted" religions, including Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam, will simply die out, and "Submission" will prevail. Specific beliefs of the USI include the dedication of all worship practices to God alone, upholding the Qur'an alone, and rejecting the traditional hadith and sunnah as fabrications and lies attributed to Muhammad by his enemies The submitters are followers of the late Rashad Khalifa, a man who claimed to be a Messenger of Allah. This claim in itself is sufficient to remove the Submitters from Islam. Though he no longer lives, his followers continue to hold beliefs of Kufr.

Question What is a Bahai, and what proofs support or not support the movement? Answer BAHAISM By Zakariyya Ahmed Muhammad Nur Translated by Hafiz Abdullah Dhabelia BAHAISM PROPAGATES ITS MISLEADING IDEOLOGIES IN AMERICA AND IN ITS NEIGHBOURING REGIONS. WHY DO THE BAHAIS PERSIST UPON THE REJECTION OF THE MIRACLES OF THE AMBIVA (A.S)? During my second visit to the USA, at the invitation by the organisation of the ‘Muslim Arab Youth’ to propagate the Islamic culture in the city of Los Angeles which has been severely shaken by natural catastrophes, my gaze was drawn towards a huge building over which hung the banners of every state. I enquired of my companion, Ramadaan Hasan who is an Egyptian engineer regarding this building. His reply was, “This is the Bahai Mosque of Los Angeles, the largest Mosque in the U.S.A. Taken aback, I stood by it, recalling all their fabrications which they had circulated, their deviations which they had strongly adhered to and their book which comprises of a great number of lies and differences which had been falsely attributed to divine revelation whereas divine revelation is totally free from it. This standpoint had certainly driven me to think of the causes which led to the International Zionist Movement, spurring this deviated Bahai’sm and to place all strength under their control and to link Judaism with it and give it support. Through the passage of time, Persia has become a dangerous ground wherefrom such movements emerged, that were hostile to Islam and which made great efforts in annihilating its teachings some how or the other. Nevertheless Bahaism has Jewish roots. However the Jews who are helpless contemporaries to the Baha Movement, did not suffice upon old Jewish roots, but rather began replacing themselves with Jewish tactics by using this movement which at times were concealed and at times became apparent. Thereafter it made itself totally apparent, in the present day, when one of the BAHA’I members became a Jewish rabbi, as you will see in the unravelling of this topic. Bahaism and the unity of religions Whilst touring about in the vicinity of the Mosque in the city of Los Angeles, I observed at its side a massive building known as ‘The Union of Religions’. Its chief aim is to combine all the heavenly religions into one single religion. This is the very same thing towards which Bahaism is openly calling. The fact is that the claim that the chain of all heavenly religions has only been terminated by the appearance of ‘Baha’ who unites and completes all religions, is totally incorrect, in spite of the fact that he states in his book that Eesa (A.S) has mentioned (according to them): “Verily, I have many things to inform you about but you are not capable enough to bear it right now. However when the spirit of truth appears he will guide you, as he will not speak of his own accord. He will talk of what he bears and he will inform you of matters to occur in the future. He alone will know what Allah has retained for himself upon the rise of Islam when he said, “And none knoweth it’s interpretation except Allah”. The beliefs of the Bahais and their lives The Bahai’s are using verses of the Holy Quraan and the Ahaadeeth to prove that the appearance of the new prophet will take place in Akaa, a city of Syria. From amongst the many verses which they use are: “And listen attentively to the day when a proclaimer shall call out from a near place, the day when they will hear the truth. That is the day of emergence.” The closest land to the Arabian peninsula is the plains of Syria. They also believe that Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) had determined the place in a Hadeeth which they quote often: “Glad tidings to that person who has seen Akaa.” These are such fabrications that do not warrant discussion. However in Akaa, they lived amongst the Jews where they were highly influenced. This led to the termination of the link between them and Islam. Bahaism thus became a new edition of Judaism and Zionism. Baha proclaimed that all men belonged to one religion and one homeland. He therefore called towards one religion which is a combination of all religions and creeds. He opposes district and regional differences and convicts. The birth of Baha and his upbringing After the assassination of ‘Al Baabah’, Husain Ali Thowry who was born on the 1st Muharram 1233 A.H. continued with this movement. He was initially from amongst the disciples of Albaab – the originator of the Albaabiyah movement. In spite of Husain having held only one meeting with Albaab, he initiated Albaab’s call after his death. In the year 1269 A.H. the Shah banished him with many of the followers of the Albaabiyah movement to Baghdad. The fact of the matter is that he found for himself followers from the northern regions of Iraq and from Baghdad itself. Within a short period of time his activities unveiled, after which he was banished to Istanbul. Here he had clashes with his brother regarding who would possess leadership of this newly reformed movement. He overpowered his brother, hence establishing himself in Akaa. Initially he claimed to be the successor of Albaab, then he claimed he was Albaab himself. Later he claimed to be Imaam Mahdi, then he claimed to be a special prophet. Finally he claimed to be a prophet sent for the whole of mankind. This is the type of prophet, mention of which has been made in the Baha books. During the latter part of his life he claimed divinity based on the beliefs of Halloween and he rejected anyone claiming divinity. He gave himself the title ‘Bahaullah’ (the brilliance of Allah), claiming that the brilliance of Allah had transmigrated in his form. Therefore he would cover his face and walk so that no individual belonging to the human race could observe the brilliance of Allah. His compilations in the service of his movements Bahaullah had compiled a book called Al Kitaabul Aqdas (the holy book) which comprises of fabricated lies and superstitions. He claimed that this book had been revealed by Allah. He states in the book: “Indeed Allah has relieved you of that which has been revealed in Al Bayaan (reference made to a book called Al Bayaanul Arabi compiled by Albaab). And now we have permitted you to read that which will benefit you.” He is presently making an effort to philosophise his activity and to make it known internationally. Hence he makes these claims in his books (which we will soon refer to in this article) and particularly in this book Al Aqdas wherein it is stated that he calls towards religious brotherhood and especially between a person who loves his country and a person who loves the world. Similarly it is stated that he has prohibited warfare of any kind and the usage of weapons itself. In the ensuing pages we have briefly mentioned the teachings of the Bahais. Baha’s most important teachings to his followers 1. The rejection of the miracles of the Ambiyaa (A.S), resurrection and life after death. Similarly the rejection of all promises made by Allah in the Quraan and the denial of Jannat and Jahannum as well. 2. According to Baha, salaah consisted of nine rakaats in the morning and evening. Baha abrogated reading salaah with jama’at and he directed the Qibla to Akaa where Albaab’s body and Baha’s grave is found. 3. Baha stipulated that Hajj is for men only and not for women and he made the mixing of men and women permissible. 4. Bahaa had regulated the laws of inheritance between men and women equally. Similarly he introduced many innovations and fabrications. The strength of the Bahai Movement The gatherings and assemblies of the Bahais are eye-catching due to their vastness and beautiful buildings. It was the very fact that caught my eye in Los Angeles. These gatherings are established by issuing booklets and magazines which unfolds its movements between the Muslims and Christians in America and which calls on international unity, just as they distribute leaflets (which are extremely dangerous) and which portrays their link with the National Zionist Movement. We will not be exaggerating if we say that their most famous propagators are from the Secrefire Zionist Jews who are in the garb of the Bahais. The surprising fact is that many renowned personalities in the Arab world are sympathetic towards the Bahais, just as they are sympathetic towards the Freemasons and Rotaries and they are misled by their animosity towards religions, regions, in fact towards the entire mankind. The Bahais in Los Angeles I have found that amongst the causes of the spreading of the Bahais in Los Angeles which has a Muslim population of 700 00 from different regions and nationalities is idolness and vacuity of the youth. The lives of the youth are void of effective Islamic propagation. Propagation is of such a level which is not satisfying the fervour of the youth, nor is it bringing life to their thoughts. Hence the Bahais have filled this vacuum and started a branch in the heart of the city and have set up quarters for propagation. They began with the propagation of the book Al I’qaan, which is from amongst the three books written by Bahaullah. This book has been translated into Arabic in an exclusive and fine print as we have been informed by our companions. The emergence of the Bahais is not only restricted to the city of Los Angeles. In fact it is spreading in most of the regions of north and Latin America and some other regions. “The Bahais have established themselves in this city and it’s dangers have been realised too late”, says the rector of the Islamic centre of the northern part of the city – Musjidul Huda. Many Americans follow the Bahai Movement and openly announce their evasion from their original beliefs. Have we realised what a danger this is to the propagation of the true Islam which is protecting our Muslim youth (Arab and non-Arab). These deviated groups and false propagators have placed a barrier on the path of the spread of Islam. (Translated from the Arabic newspaper “Al Aalamul Islam” – 18 Muharram 1415)
