Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1265/1036/H=10/1434) It is lawful in itself provided water does not enter into mouth and nose and satr is not uncovered and it involves no other evil. However, it is better to avoid swimming in the state of fast.

Q. Janab, ?ASSALAMU ALAIKUM? In connection with the Ramzan donation towards the expenditure of ?IFTHAAR? occasion in the Aminjikarai Mosque, Chennai, I would like to clarify the following query as per the shariath at the earliest possible. 1. Whether the balance amount of Kanzi donation can be utilized for the purchase of Boondi, electrical (light) decoration of mosque on the occasion of ?Lilathul Qadir night? (27th Day of Ramzan). 2. Whether the same amount can be utilized for the purchase of cloths for the staff of the mosque i.e., Imam, Mouzin, Makondar, Administrative staff & watchmen. 3. It is to state that our Mouzin took much effort to collect the donation from various persons of our mohalla. Previously, we paid the amount from the collection amount. Now the present secretary of Aminjikarai mosque made an objection to this and also to stop the collection of donation through Mouzin. Is it correct as per shariath. 1076 views

Q. The month of ramadahn usually brings a challenge to our community, everyone follows the opinion that they consider strong and starts the month accordingly. For the sake of unity is it allowed to adopt an opinion that may be considered weak. Like in my community we always differ on when Ramadhan will start, some people want to start with the country that sights the crescent first (usually Arab brothers take the opinion la ibra fi ikhtilaf al matalie), some want to follow local sighting, some want to follow continental sighting (usually south Asians), So as a Imam or knowledable person in the community is it OK to start ramadhan with a group in an attempt to unite the muslims (so we do not give or become the laughing stock of the media) even if the opinion is a weak one like: 1-there is no consideration for a matlaa all over the world 2-It is OK to confirm the entry of a month wholey on astronomical calculations? Please answer this and help is unite. 1851 views
