Bismillahi Al-Rahman AlRaheem Answers to the Questions: 1. Ruling related to Covering the Feet 2. Statement of Sultan of Brunei that He Intends to Implement the Shariah To Ahmad Uais Question:  Asalamu Alaikum our honourable Sheikh, Please when you have time, could you answer my questions? Barak Allah feek. First Question: From the book An-Nitham Al-Ijtima’i fil Islam [The Social System in Islam] 1. It is mentioned in the book on page 50 (English version)… “And there is no need to cover the feet since they are already covered”.

Question: Our eminent Ameer, may Allah preserve him and forgive his sins, Assalamu Alaykum wa Ramatullahi wa Barakatuhu Someone opened an interest-based bank account in one of the nowadays existing (usurious) banks and later realized that riba [interest] was added to his account. We know that Allah سبحانه وتعالى says in the explicit part of His Revelation: وَإِنْ تُبْتُمْ فَلَكُمْ رُءُوسُ أَمْوَالِكُمْ لَا تَظْلِمُونَ وَلَا تُظْلَمُونَ "But if you repent, you may have your principal - [thus] you do no wrong, nor are you wronged." (Al-Baqarah: 279) There are contemporary Sheikhs and Scholars who authorize taking this money and not leaving it to the bank, under the pretext of not helping the bank in committing Haram and not committing another Haram by leaving the interest to the Bank. The question is: What to do with the money that has been added to his capital? Is it permissible for him to take the interest-accrued money (riba money) and spend it on the poor
