Salafs sayings

It is reported that Imām Al-Zuhrī – Allāh have mercy on him – said:

Those of our scholars who went before us used to say,”Adherence to the Sunnah is salvation, but knowledge is taken away quickly, so the revival of knowledge means the stability of religion and worldly affairs, and the loss of knowledge means the loss of all that.”

Al-Lālakā`ī, Sharh Usūl I’tiqād Ahl Al-Sunnah article 136

Prohibition of Shaking hands with Non-Related Women

Question:

Why does Islaam forbid a man from shaking the hand of a women he is not related to? Does shaking hands without lust invalidate one's ablution?
Answer:

Islaam has forbidden that because it is a temptation. One of the greatest forms of temptation is for a man to touch a women he is not related to. Everything that leads to temptation is prohibited by the Law. This is why one is required to lower one's gaze as a means of blocking evil. As for a man touching his wife, it does not invalidate the ablution. This is so even if it is done with lust-unless he releases some prostatic fluid or sperm. In that case, he must make ghusl if it were sperm; he must make ablution and wash his male organ and testicles if it were prostatic fluid.
