Best of you

12. "The best of your garments are those which are white; shroud your dead in them and clothe your living with them. The best of that which you apply to your eyelids is antimony causing the eyelashes to grow and sharpening the eyesight." [Ibn Hibbân, Sahîh]

Quotes to remember

11. It was narrated that Abu Hanifa said to Dawud al-Taa’i, “Why do you prefer seclusion?” Dawud replied, “To struggle against myself to leave disputing.” Abu Hanifah said, “Attend meetings, listen to what is said, and remain silent.” Dawud said, “I have done so, but I have found nothing heavier than this.”

Salafs sayings

Sins are like chains and locks preventing their perpetrator from roaming the vast garden of Tawhid and reaping the fruits of righteous actions.

The Ruling on Delaying the Dowry

Question:

What is the ruling on delaying the dowry given to the woman in the Islamic Law? Is it forbidden or permissible?
Answer:

There is no objection to delaying the dowry. If, for example, there was an agreement on the payment of ten thousand Riyals immediately, and ten or twenty thousand later, then the Muslims must abide by their conditions; the Messenger of Allaah said: The condition having the most right to be fulfilled is one by which you make the private parts (of the spouse) permissible. [1] If it is a delayed dowry for a certain date or when getting divorce or upon death. And Allaah is the Granter of success.
[1] Al-Bukhari no. 2721 and Muslim no. 1418.
