Translation: Complete the Hajj (obligatory pilgrimage to
Makkah) & the Umrah (optional visit to Makkah) for the sake of Allah. If
you are prevented from proceeding then send such offering for sacrifice as you
can afford & do not shave your head until the offerings have reached their
destiny. But if any of you is ill or has an ailment in his scalp which
necessitates shaving, he must pay ransom either by fasting or feeding the poor
or offering a sacrifice. If in peacetime anyone wants to take the advantage of
performing Umrah & Hajj together, he should make an offering which he can afford;
but if he lacks the means, let him fast three days during the Hajj & seven
days on his return making ten days in all. This order is for the one whose
household is not in the precincts of the Sacred Mosque (Masjid). Fear Allah
& know that Allah is strict in retribution.

If you are sick, or on a journey, or one of you has used the toilet, or has had contact with women (sexual relation with wives) & can find no water, then make Tayammum: take some clean earth & rub your faces & hands with it. Allah is Lenient, Forgiving.

The scientist Masaru Emoto & his team of Japan found out that, the
Muslims recites BISMILLAH before eating/drinking. He says that after
saying (reciting) BISMILLAH on regular water, some positive changes occur in
the quality of regular water. That makes it the best water.
Masaru
Emoto said: "My Muslim
colleague offered to recite Quranic verses over the water. He brought a
tape-recorder & played some Quranic verses & we got the most
perfectly-shaped crystals. Then he played the 99 names of Allah Ta’ala. Each
name produced a uniquely-shaped crystal.
He also found out that
if someone recites the Quran on regular water, it gets the ability for the
treatment of different diseases.

no. 37 Zamzam for more details).
Question & Answer regarding uses of inhalers in Ramzaan /
Fasting: -
Answers given by
General Supervisor: Shaikh Muhammad Saalih Al-Munajjid & Shaikh Muhammad
Ibn Saalih Al-‘Uthaymeen.
Question: Is it permissible to use a nasal spray that
contains a percentage of alcohol? Does it break the fast for one who is
fasting? I have an allergy to dust that causes me to sneeze continually (as
much as 60 sneezes in succession). The doctor has prescribed for me medicine in
a spray that contains 0.25% of alcohol. I only use this medicine in urgent
cases, but I do not know whether it is permissible for me to use this medicine
or not. & what is the ruling on using it in Ramzaan in particular?
Answer: We inform you that there is nothing wrong with
using this medicine that contains that percentage of alcohol, which is very low
& is dissolved in the medicine & there is no apparent trace of it, so
it does not come under the ruling prohibiting alcohol. We have quoted the
fatwas of the scholars concerning that. Using sprays for allergies does not
invalidate the fast according to the correct opinion, whether they are
administered through the nose or through the mouth, as they are in the form of
vapour & do not contain any solid matter that enters the stomach.
Question: I have an allergy that affects my nose & I
use a nasal spray to treat it. If I do not use it, it causes me great
difficulty in breathing & I cannot do without the medicine for more than
three hours. If I do not use it, it will make breathing very difficult. The
problem is that the month of Ramzaan is coming & I use this medicine &
am afraid it will affect my fast, but if I stop using it I cannot cope. Please
note that on some days in Ramzaan, I did use it but I am very careful to
prevent it from reaching my throat. What is the ruling on that? & what is
the ruling on using it?
Answer: The spray that you are using is like a kind of
gas because it is dispersed in the air & does not reach the stomach. As
that is the case, we say that there is nothing wrong with using this spray when
you are fasting & you are not breaking the fast by doing that because – as
we have said – no part of it reaches the stomach because it is something that
is dispersed in the air & disappears & no particle of it reaches the
stomach such that we could say that it is something that breaks the fast. So it
is permissible for you to use it when you are fasting.
[Fataawa Noor ‘ala
al-Darb, tape. 44]
