That is why we need to think in relative terms of today. People have no logic at all to think this 48 miles still applies. This can be covered in less than an hours drive by car or bus, train ect. Not all hadiths can apply directly to our life now, and people need more than hadiths, they need thier brains!!

You cant be a good muslim if you are not decent and have a cold heart. Be a decent and kind person and care for women and children and the elderly.

Es_Selam'un Aleykum ve Rahmetullahi ve Berakatuh,
Please let we all care that Sunnipath is Sufi way of thinking on Islam,not an onbejective reference,just way of thinking,some more high level disciplines should be more good to be considered...
A note,all muslims are our friends,however they think or not,but coming to the wisdom of Qur'an and benfetting from does not resist to joke or way of thinkings...

That reminds me on the hadith of leaving your husband if he doesnt convert after you convert. That is a choice for the individual, and is between a woman and Allah alone. Sometimes the men should just stay out of it unless the sister is threatened! Masha'allah for the female Ummah!

Sister Maryah I total agree with you when you say that all matters in religion are between Allah and the individual. But Sister if you are suggesting that it is okay for a Muslimah to be married to non-Muslim then that is misinformation.
If you personally wish to remain with your husband, after your reversion that is between you and Allah Subhanahu wa Ta�ala, but please don�t say that it is okay because it is not. A Muslimah can only be married to a Muslim but the Muslim can be married to Muslimah as well as women from amongst the Jews and Christians. This is Allah�s law and this ruling is not made by anyone human. Remember that this is a discussion board and someone else may feel it is okay and permissible from an Islamic point of view for a woman who converts to remain married to non-Muslim husband whereas in reality it is not.
Wa Alaikum Salam

As Salamu Alaikum
It is not good Islamic Adab (Manners) to mock a scholar or an Islamic site. We can disagree respectfully. If Allah Subhanahu wa Ta�ala blessed us with more knowledge than others say �Alhamdulillah� and thank HIM for HIS Mercy and Bounty.
Regarding the article about the children Sis Jenni, it is that writer's opinion instead of criticising him or the web site here you should have sent that site an email and told them why you do not agree with that article. What may seem �weird and silly� to you may make a lot of sense to someone else. By sending them an email you would be pointing out their mistakes to them and maybe you could have found some good articles to back-up your point of view. Correcting mistakes earns reward from Allah has well.
Regarding the issue about sleeping on hard beds- Sis Jenni, you should have looked for medical evidence because commenting. When I was in boarding school we had to sleep on hard beds because it was good for our health. Many doctors recommend people with back problems to sleep on hard surfaces. I am not say that what is mentioned in that article to be correct but at the same time, I would not find fault with something if I have nothing to back-it-up with.
In the second instant regarding traveling I could not make out if you are mocking the scholar or the Hadith. Audho Billahe minash Shaitanir-Rajim! Which ever you should not have done that. I agree that Hadith may not apply today. From the Ahadith sis Mishmish posted, one mentions one day and another mentions three days. With today�s mode of travel one can go around the world and back in three days. Instead of looking at the Hadith in terms of time and distance, try to find the wisdom behind it.
I see wisdom behind this Hadith, which you may not agree with. Today the world is moving in such a pace that there is a tremendous increase of crime in every country in the world, both east and west, both Muslim and Non-Muslim. No country is spared these terrible vices and the victims are 99.9% women. So don�t you think, in general, it is safe for women in today�s society, wherever they may be, to be escorted by a male Companion either their husband, brother, father, son.
If we as Muslims mock and ridicule Islamic scholars and Islamic sites then we can never ever hope for unity of the Ummah. Disagreeing is one thing, mocking and ridiculing is another.
May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta�ala unite us and help us sort our differences admirably. Ameen!
Wa Alaikum Salam

Dear Sis Suzanne
I did get your advice. I understand that it came from a Islamic website. I truly go by what our Prophet(SWAT) says and do not ARGUE any point. What I ws saying is that people refer to some hadith in different circumstances the wrong way. With the permission from my husband, I have driven more than 9 hours with my children. If he said not to travel, I wouldn't. I do read and try to follow the hadith that is Sahih or strong. But my main guide to life is the Quran.

Alwardah, anyone with any opinion and a mail order degree can say they are a scholar. I don't have to just respect and revere any persons opinion no matter how silly!!!! There is so much useless advice from Islamic Websites when people really just need to use thier common sence, read the Quran ect.!! Tell my why again, that you have a brain???

Assalamu Alaikum!
I agree with Sister Alwardah. We may disagree with any scholar, but we have no right to defame Scholars and Islamic web sites. By doing so, we will only be siding with those anti-Islam forces, determined to defame Islam and Muslims all over the world.
It is not an easy task to become a Scholar just as it is not easy to become a scientist, doctor, engineer or any other professional. One has to invest thousands of hours of time, effort and other financial resources. I would rather say that even becoming professional doctor may be easier than becoming a great scholar. Therefore, we have to respect scholars, because of them we know many things about Islam today that otherwise would not have been possible.
We may also respectfully disagree with them.
I hope we all would respect these sensitivities at this forum.
Peace

Peacemaker, Who says who is a Scholar, and not just someone giving advice. Brother Rami had told me, Most scholars in the west are totally unqualified to give Islamic advice and do not understand Arabic enough to Interpret the Hadiths and Quran. And there are Islamic Websites that promote beating women, female genital mutilation, and many other horrible things, including terrorism. So again I will speak my mind and I am not alone!!!!
