Women's World Cup Football in Jordan: A Historical Event or Breaking of Taboos and the Violation of Sanctities?

By AlFikrAlMustanir
(Translated)
On Friday, 30/09/2016 the Women's World Cup football tournament for under 17’s, was launched in the Jordanian capital Amman. The tournament will run until 21/10/2016; 16 teams will participate in the tournament including the Jordanian team.
 Jordan's hosting of the tournament comes at a time when Jordan is witnessing a rapid escalation in destructive activities of Westernization by foreign and local institutions in order to eliminate the Islamic values ​​and disseminate Western values ​​in their place. Also it comes in the context of breaking taboos and the violation of sanctities, which has become the policy pursued by the Jordanian regime at all levels.  One example:  a few days ago it concluded the signing of the gas agreement with the Jewish entity after it openly normalized its relations with it. On another front, it changed the school curriculums under the pretext of the fight against ‘extremism and terrorism’ in response to Western dictates. And on a third front, it allowed the organizing of festivals and celebrations that encourage the mixing between men and women and revealing of the Awra (areas of the body that must be covered according to Islam) and the spread of vice and corruption, such as the Colours’ Festival, Pajama Festival, beauty pageants and fashion shows, and now it is hosting the Women's World Cup for under 17.
Events like these aim to corrupt the concepts and pacify them in order that the Western civilization be accepted which considers women as a commodity for viewing and pleasure. They entrench the "culture of baring the Awrah” without being embarrassed in front of people and on satellite TV screens, as they also seek to promote the idea of ​​gender equality which emanates from the capitalist ideology. Tatjana Haenni, former director of women's competitions in FIFA commented on organizing this tournament in Jordan: “For FIFA, this is another step toward gender equality and more inclusiveness, and this is simply one project on a long road towards improving the position of women and girls in sport and society.”
O Muslims in Jordan, O Guardians of the rules of Islam:
Organizing these activities contradict Islam and our Shariah law and our ethics which are based upon sublime values, which call for virtue and protection of women from all forms of vulgarity and decadence. Islam has given high status, prestige and honour to women, and views them as an honour that must be protected, and prohibited them from Tabbaruj (showing adornments, beauty and the Awra infront of foreign men) and it imposed on women the Shari’i dress to be worn in the public life, and prohibited the gazing at the Awra, and ordered (men and women) to lower their gaze, as well as prohibiting mixing between men and women, except for a reason permitted by the Shari’.
We have seen your zeal to protect your Deen, and your rejection of all that contradicts your identity and Islamic values. The demonstrations that you carried out to protest against changing the curriculums, and the signing of the treacherous gas agreement with the Jewish entity, are the best proof of this. So do not allow activities and events aimed at Muslim women which contradict the rules of Islam to take place in your country, and stand as a bulwark in the face of all the conspiracies drawn against you and against your Islam, and be on constant alert to what is intended for your daughters and sons to corrupt and be corrupted.
﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا قُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَارًا وَقُودُهَا النَّاسُ وَالْحِجَارَةُ عَلَيْهَا مَلَائِكَةٌ غِلَاظٌ شِدَادٌ لَا يَعْصُونَ اللَّهَ مَا أَمَرَهُمْ وَيَفْعَلُونَ مَا يُؤْمَرُونَ﴾

“O you who have believed, protect yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones, over which are [appointed] angels, harsh and severe; they do not disobey Allah in what He commands them but do what they are commanded.” [At-Tahreem: 6]

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

By
Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider ...

Authenticity of ahadith on tall buildings in Makkah?

By
Question Are these   ḥadith  sound? Are the references provided correct and accurate? When you see the belly of Makkah will be cleft open and through it will be dug out river-like passages (i.e. tunnels) (or water in the road to Makkah), and you see the buildings surpass its mountains, then take care (or beware, or a variant has: then know that the matter is at hand, or then understand that the time of trial (Judgment day) is near at hand). [Narrated by Al-Azraqi in the Book of reports about Makkah – Kitab Akhbaar Makkah, Hadiyth-1725; A specific Hadiyth (in fact several related-Hadiyths) which prophesizes about this Tower. Itha ra’aitun mecca bu’ijat katha’ima, wa ya-tasawa bunyanuha ru’usa jibaliha, faqad athalati as-Sa’atu. When you see Mecca, its mountain with holes (pierced through them), and its buildings reach its mountain tops, then as-Sa’ah (the Hour) has already cast its shadow. [Suyuti] So when you see in Makkah that channels have already been dug (or tunnels b...

The Shariah rules relating to mixing between the sexes

By
In Islam, the basic principle of the interaction between men and women is segregation. This means that in all areas of life and in all places whether private or public, contact between men and women is generally prohibited. Many evidences establish the principle of not mixing between the sexes, and there are many ahadith which clarify that this is the case in both public and private areas: Abu Hurairah reported that the Messenger of Allah said: "The best rows for the men are the first rows and the worst rows for them are the last rows. The best rows for the women are the last rows and the worst for them are the front rows." The last rows are the best for the women because they are farther away from the men as against the first rows that are nearest to men's rows. [This is related by the group except al-Bukhari]  In Abu Dawud, p.284, Hadith No. 4931, it is narrated upon the authority of Aisha (ra) that she said: "I used to play with my friends and whenever the P...
