[Ansari]

DjazakAllah,

This isnt something for only hanafi's, right. The rulings are also the same for other muslims who follow an other madhab? No harm if maliki's apply these rules to themselves because of the lack of information from their school of thought...?

[Ansari]

Could someone answer this question please. It is ok when you give these fatwa's to people belonging to an other madhab/salafi (most of the people dont even know what it means)?

[UmmIbrahimIsa]

assalamu alaikum wr wb

you can insha'Allah as anyone can benefit from this just let them know that some schools of fiqh (madhaabs) difer in this yet all are almost the same. and that you can pick and choose from each one to make your own but have to stick to one.

i.e. you can only have the chicken combo meal, not the chicken combo and beef combo and shrimp combo and veggie combo together. or you cannot have coke and 7 up and orange fanta together in one cup mixed together (unless you're just plain weird and like that kind of mix).

Allahu Alim

these are just a means of benefitting, and gaining reward and getting closer to Allah to gain His Pleasure and please Him.

[Sadiq]

Sorry for a late reply.

From the outlook, it was sent out as a Hanafi FAQ. But most of the content is 'general'.

As the sister rightly said. There might be some differences, but most of it is same. There is some good material for malaki brothers, at lamp post productions, and htspub should cater for the hanabali loving chana people, and SP also has shafi section.

Do give it to people, and as the title of it being "Hanafi FAQ" should be useful in explaning some of the issues. But there very little differences, and i think it would be better to give some of the articles, rather than all of it, (if they are not hanafi).

Allah Knows Best.

-best thing to give out is Virtues of Ramadan. !! ;)
