Is using grocery coupons Halal?

The topic heading should be in the humor section....LOL

I am not upset with you Maryah, I am a convert too. I am frustrated at the lengths some Muslims go to point out what is haram and will go to any extreme to find a scholar that agrees with them. I will say what I have said before, Islam started as a simple religon. To teach people to follow Allah and be good. To pray, fast, be kind and have high morals and be charitable. The Quran is very clear on how to be a good Muslim. Now why to we go to GREAT trouble to debate every detail and continually find new things that we can make haram. I don't really think things like eating standing up or sitting down, covering your water or not, using silverwear or eating with your hands, sitting on the floor or on a chair,how you cut your watermelon, if you have short or long hair, what color you wear outside the house(some say you should only wear black or dark colors), ect ect matter at all.  We as Muslims are so bogged down in these things and not the things that are important!!!! As a new Muslim people told me all kinds of stuff was haram and my Husband told me to put on a filter and ignore people. That is what I have done and I figure it out myself, I try to find the answer that seems most reasonable and logical. Peace

Assalamu Alaikum!

Sister Maryah, I agree with what Sister Mishmish has said. Please ask questions until it becomes absolutely clear to you. And I pray to Allah that we succeed to answer your questions in the best possible way to avoid any confusion.

Jazak Allah Khair.

May Allah guide us all.

Peace

 

 

Assalamu Alaikum Sister Maryah:

As a new Muslimah just ask whatever you want to. I know I did, and still do.  I made my Muslim friends crazy.    But if you don't ask, how will you know? There is no question that is too silly if you don't know the answer.

I remember asking how to fasten my hijab correctly, bathroom questions, just questions about everything and anything. I had to ask, I wasn't married to a Muslim and was starting out from scratch. It was all new to me, and I couldn't read fast enough to keep up with all of the questions. Besides, some of the stuff you want to know isn't written down in easily accessible books.

So, don't be shy or discouraged, just keep asking and someone will answer you..

Salaams.
