- 1.
How does Shyakh al Uthaymeen explain the words, "[Allaah] only accepts that which is good and pure"? (Two correct answers)
- A.
This statement tells us that good and pure food is only that which is produced organically
- B.
This refers to that which is good in its very nature (so alcohol is not accepted)
- C.
This refers to that which has been acquired lawfully (so usury/interest is not accepted)
- D.
This refers to natural hair colour (so dying hair is not permissible)
- E.
This refers to non-polluting means of deriving power (so coal-burning power stations are not permissible)
Correct Answer(s)
B. This refers to that which is good in its very nature (so alcohol is not accepted)
C. This refers to that which has been acquired lawfully (so usury/interest is not accepted)Explanation
The correct answer explains that the words "Allah only accepts that which is good and pure" refer to two aspects. Firstly, it refers to that which is good in its very nature, such as alcohol, which is not accepted. Secondly, it refers to that which has been acquired lawfully, so usury/interest is not accepted. This means that both the inherent quality and the lawful acquisition of something determine its acceptability to Allah.Rate this question:

Wearing haram (unlawful) clothing is a reason why our duaa/supplications may not be answered.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Wearing haram clothing refers to wearing clothing that is considered unlawful or forbidden in Islam. This can include clothing that is immodest, revealing, or made from forbidden materials such as silk or gold for men. According to Islamic teachings, one's appearance and clothing should be modest and in accordance with the guidelines set by Allah. If a person chooses to wear haram clothing, it may indicate a lack of obedience and righteousness, which can affect the acceptance of their supplications or prayers. Therefore, it is believed that wearing haram clothing can be a reason why our duaa/supplications may not be answered.Rate this question:
