Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril: In a very secretive ongoing trial, the Saudi government has moved to appeal the 31 year sentence Shaykh Nasir al-Fahd received in 1435/2014, and now they have requested for his execution. Very few people know about this development and not many raise awareness regarding this allamah and his brothers.

🔺We have posted two views concerning fasting of Shawwāl: (a)That one should make up the missed fasts first, before fasting the Six of Shawwāl (islamqa.info fatāwah, Shaykh Haytham's post, Shaykh Abdullah As-Sa'd's post) (b) That it is permissible to observe the voluntary fasts first, rather than the obligatory ones(the fast which one need to make up) [explanation posted by Galandhaanu regarding the view of Jumhūr] Since this is a disputed matter, one can read and find out the differences in the opinions and there is Inshā Allāh no problem in following the opinion which one finds more correct.

❸ The scholars of the first opinion disagree and say: "However, the 'ajr of Shawwāl's fast is only upon completing all fasts of Ramaḍān." This is putting restrictions (on people) regarding the ease that which Allāh legislated through Revelation; i.e; making up obligatory fasts on other days. And it is not seen that the point of the Hadīth is that it is lāzim that the fasts missed due to an excuse be made up. At-Tarīfī said: It is permissible to observe voluntary fasts before making up missed, (obligatory) fasts. This is because for the one who leaves some in Ramaḍān due to a reason, it is as if he has fasted (what was obligatory upon him). And he is among those mentioned in the Hadīth by Prophet ﷺ: “Whoever fasts the month of Ramaḍān and then follows it with six days of fasting in the month of Shawwāl, it will be as if he fasted for the entire year.” And completing the missed fasts remains as a responsibility (to make up on other days)." A Benefit: It is said: the six fasts of Shawwāl is Mustahabb to hasten it, and not because the virtues of these six fasts cannot be achieved in other months. Hence the Hadīth states the amount. And the virtues are general, and can be achieved in other months as well. And this is a saying which does not oppose what Nawawī and others have said in the Sharh of this Hadīth, as the Ajr of six fasts is 10 times, i.e; 60 days; 2 months, and the Ajr for this is applicable to other months. Nevertheless, as the Hadīth encourages it on Shawwāl, there is no disagreement that it is preferable to do so then. But the preference is for the reward of hastening it, and this is similar to the variation in degree of rewards such as that for observing salāh at their earliest times and later, and it is not that the reward is lost for the (rest of the) year. _ Sources: https://t.me/Aaalsaad7/413 https://t.me/elmejlisi/152 https://t.me/Suleiman_alAlwan/952 https://www.islamweb.net/ar/fatwa/3718 https://www.islamweb.net/ar/fatwa/3357 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rc5mtoty8y4&t=15 —Galandhaanu [Ustādh Muḥammad al-Māldīfī حفظه الله] Translated by صدقة الجارية Alhamdhulillāh https://t.me/qalandhar/662 #HoldfasttotheropeofAllāh #FastOfShawwāl

Second opinion: This is the opinion of the Jumhūr (majority of the scholars). They say: It is jāiz (permissible) to fast voluntary fasts while one has some obligatory fasts to make up. This is the opinion of the Hanafī, Shāfi'ī and and Mālikī. However, only the Hanafīs from among them consider it permissible without it being Makrūh (disliked), the other two (Shāfi'ī and Mālikī) say: it is permissible but makrūh. And the dalīl for that is (as mentioned previously) that it is not obligatory to make up missed fasts immediately, as soon as possible. As for the Hanbalīs, their opinion is that it is harām to fast voluntary fasts before making up missed fasts, and that they would not even be valid. The dalīl which they bring is the Hadīth of Abū Hurayrah which was reported by Ahmad: "Whoever observes voluntary fast while he still has to make up for days which he missed in Ramadan, his voluntary fast will not be accepted until he makes up for all the days that he had missed in Ramadan.” However, this Hadīth is not authentic, just as was stated by Ibn Abī Hātim, and it has more than one blunders in its isnād. The other saying reported from Ahmad is: "It is permissible to observe voluntary fasts before missed fasts and it is valid." Al-Mardāwī stated in 'al-Insāf': what is most correct is this. Henceforth, what is most correct is this, i.e; the Qawl of the Jumhūr. Just as it is proved by the Revelation from Allāh: { وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَۗ } [البقرة: 185] "Whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not observe saum must be made up] from other days." Therefore, Allāh has not conditioned that they must be made up right after Ramaḍān or even one after the other. Rather, Al-Bukhārī and Muslim reported from 'Ā'ishah رضي الله عنها: "I was unable to make up missed fasts from Ramaḍān until the month of Sha’bān as I was busy" It is mentioned in Hāshiyāt i'ānat-ul Tālibīn (2/268): "Even with an excuse, it is obligatory (wājib) to make up missed obligatory fasts, i.e; if without an excuse, then immediately and if with an excuse then when one finds it feasible." 3/3 https://t.me/qalandhar/661 #HoldfasttotheropeofAllāh #FastOfShawwāl

➋ (e) The one who has fasts to make up Scholars have disputed in this matter. First opinion: As-Sa'd, Al-Ulwān, Al-Majlisī and several other contemporary scholars have said: it is upon one to fast the six of Shawwāl after completing all the missed fasts of Ramaḍān. Dalīl for this can be derived from the phrase of the hadīth: ( مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ ) "Whoever fasts Ramadān, then follows it..." So the one fasted on Ramaḍān is the one who has made up the missed fasts. They further said: "One cannot give precedence to Sunnah fasts (over Fard fasts) and delay making the Fard fasts." The one who has missed 22, or more than 23 fasts due to Nifās or some other illness, then, the person would be unable to fast the Six of Shawwāl within the month, after completing the missed fasts. Some among those who are on this opinion say: "Even if it is the case, (as mentioned above) one should complete those fasts. And upon the person is to complete the six Fasts by continuing in the month of Dhul-Qaidah." Dalīl for this is derived from the hadīth where the Prophet ﷺ delayed the sunnah two rak'ats after Zuhr to be offered after Asr. Hence, Sunan al Rawātib can be delayed and offered later, due to an excuse. Condition for this is one must have an excuse. If one could not complete the missed fasts even by fasting the whole of Shawwāl, then, the person can complete the Six along with Dhul-Qaidah. This was said by al-'Alwān and is also the opinion of As-Sa'd. However, Al-Majlisī disagreed: "For the one who has to make up fasts, if there would not be days left from the month to fast the Six after completing the missed fasts, then for him is to fast the Six of Shawwāl and to delay making up the missed fasts. Because there is no dalīl that one should make up the fasts right away. Also from this verse of the Qurān: {فَعِدَّتٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ} "the same number should be made up from other days." 2/4 #HoldfasttotheropeofAllāh #FastOfShawwāl

➊ 📚 A Summary on the six fasts of Shawwāl (a) Dalīl: Prophet ﷺ said: (مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ سِتًّا مِنْ شَوَّالٍ كَانَ كَصِيَامِ الدَّهْرِ)  “Whoever fasts the month of Ramaḍān and then follows it with six days of fasting in the month of Shawwāl, it will be as if he fasted for the entire year.” (رواه مسلم في صحيحه: 1164) (b) Meaning: An-Nawawī said: It is like observing a year of fasting because, the reward of one's good deeds are multiplied ten fold. Therefore, fasting in Ramaḍān is like fasting for ten months and fasting six of Shawwāl is like fasting for two months..." Al Majlisī said: "A similar meaning is included in the hadīth of Thawbān by Ahmad and others." (c) Authenticity Shaykh Muḥammad Sālim Al Majlisī said: Ash-Shafi'ī, Ahmad and various other well-known scholars from Madhhabbs held the opinion that six days of fasting in Shawwāl is something which is legislated. And Mālik disliked it. And it is how it was reported on the authority of Abū Hanīfa and his senior student Abū Yūsuf, and the majority of scholars disagreed with them on this. Ibn Rushd said: Indeed, Mālik disliked fasting six days of Shawwāl [either for letting Ramaḍān be accompanied by something which is not a part of it , or perhaps because the hadīth did not reach him, or it was not authenticated with him, (the latter is what) which seems to be more likely.] Al-Hāfiz Ibn Abd al-Barr said: "The Hadīth had not reached Mālik." (End of the saying of Al-Majlisī) We say: There has been an opinion of some of the scholars regarding the isnād of this hadīth. However, the opinion of majority of the scholars and of Imām Muslim is that it is sahīh since Sa'd bin Saīd is not alone in narrating this Hadīth and it has been narrated by several others. (d) Consecutively or separately? It is better to fast the six days of Shawwāl consecutively, also to begin with the 2nd day of the month. As-Sa'd said: "This is the way Ibn Al Mubārak chose." It is due to the obligation to hasten towards goodness. Allāh سبحانه وتعالى says: { وَسَارِعُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ } "And march forth in the way (which leads to) forgiveness from your Lord!..." Aal-e-Imran 3:133 Also, there is no problem in completing the six separately due to what it means from this hadīth. (سِتًّا من شَوَّال) "Six from Shawwāl..." So one can either complete it by fasting on Mondays or the White days. This is said by both Shuyookh, Al-Majlisī and As-Sa'd. Also at-Tarīfī. 1/4 https://t.me/qalandhar/660 #HoldfasttotheropeofAllāh #FastOfShawwāl

تَقَبَّلَ اللّهُ مِنَّا وَ مِنْكُمْ The End Of Ramaḍān Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī رحمه الله said these lines of poetry upon completion of Ramaḍān: • Oh you, who your Lord has freed from the Fire, be warned of returning to the servitude of the wretched after being freed! • Will your Lord distance you from the Fire, while you seek to become nearer to it?! He (Allāh) saved you from it, while you seek to throw yourself in it, and don’t care to protect yourself from it! • If mercy is shown to the good-doers, then the wrong-doer should not despair from it, and if forgiveness is shown to those who have piety, then one who has wronged himself will not be deprived of it. ● [لطائف المعارف]
