Haramnya merokok


Bagi orang-orang yang mempelajari kaidah-kaidah atau prinsip-prinsip syariat dari Al Quran dan sunnah, tidak diragukan lagi, mereka pasti mengetahui keharaman rokok. Karena rokok memiliki bahaya yang besar dan dosa yang wajib dijauhi. Bagi para perokok, hendaknya mereka takut kepada Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.

Allah Ta’ala berfirman, “Dan janganlah kamu menjatuhkan dirimu sendiri ke dalam kebinasaan“. (QS. Al Baqarah: 195).

Allah Ta’ala juga berfirman, “Dan janganlah kamu membunuh dirimu; sesungguhnya Allah adalah Maha Penyayang kepadamu“. (QS. An Nisaa: 29).

Menutup Aib Seorang Muslim


Nabi ﷺ bersabda:
وَمَنْ سَتَرَ مُسْلِمٍ سَتَرَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ
“Barang siapa yang menutup seorang Muslim, maka Allah ﷻ akan menutupnya di dunia dan di Akhirat.”

Dalam riwayat yang lain:
وَمَنْ سَتَرَ عَلَى مُسْلِمٍ
“Barang siapa menutup dari seorang Muslim.”

Dan dalam hadis ini tidak disebutkan apa yang harus ditutup, Rasulullah ﷺ hanya memberikan secara umum. Dan sebagaimana dalam kaidah:
"Sesuatu Yang Tidak Disebutkan Berarti Memberikan Faidah Keumuman"

The rights of the wife which are hers alone


The wife has financial rights over her husband, which are the mahr (dowry), spending and accommodation. And she has non-financial rights, such as fair division between co-wives, being treated in a decent and reasonable manner, and not being treated in a harmful way by her husband.

1. Financial rights

(a) The mahr (dowry). This is the money to which the wife is entitled from her husband when the marriage contract is completed or when the marriage is consummated. It is a right which the man is obliged to pay to the woman. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And give to the women (whom you marry) their Mahr (obligatory bridal-money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) with a good heart” [al-Nisaa’ 4:4]

The prescription of the mahr demonstrates the seriousness and importance of the marriage-contract, and is a token of respect and honour to the woman.

The husband’s rights over his wife.


The rights of the husband over his wife are among the greatest rights; indeed his rights over her are greater than her rights over him, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And they (women) have rights (over their husbands as regards living expenses) similar (to those of their husbands) over them (as regards obedience and respect) to what is reasonable, but men have a degree (of responsibility) over them
 [al-Baqarah 2:228]

al-Jassaas said: Allaah tells us in this aayah that each of the spouses has rights over the other, and that the husband has one particular right over his wife which she does not have over him.

A Muslim is upon righteousness as long as he follows the Atsar

Imam Muhammad Ibn Seereen (died 110H rahimahullaah) said:
"To them (the Companions of Prophet Muhammad and their followers), one is upon the straight path, the truth, as long as he follows the Atsar (literally means footprints and it refers to the ways taught by Prophet Muhammad and his Companions)"
[Sahih Jāmi‘ Bayān al-‘Ilm wa Fadlihi by al-Hāfiz Ibn 'Abdil Barr pg.416 (1444)]


Imam Is-hāq bin Rāhawaih (161-238H rahimahullaah) said:
"Every single teaching which we received via 3 people (narrators) is considered an Atsar because the Messenger of Allaah said: You shall hear from me, and another group (generation) of people shall hear from you and others shall hear from those who shall hear from you." 
[Tahdzieb Syaraf As-hāb al-Hadīts pg. 62-64 by al-Hāfiz al-Khatieb al-Baghdadi d: 463H and the hadeets is Sahih, NB Abu Dawud (Sahih Sunan Abi Dawud: 3107), Lisān alMiezān –Ibn Hajar: (1/3), as-Sahiehah: (1784) and others from Ibn ‘Abbās and other Companions].
