Answer:

 

Pray at home,hypnotism,praise allah

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Q-1: due to security-job (duties-hour) a person can't visit the mosque for the obligatory salah. he prays in his work place is it sin for him as he cant go to mosque?

If one has a valid reason whereby he cannot offer his obligatory prayers in the mosques, and he offers his prayers at his work place, there would be no sin upon him; and he will find his Lord Merciful and Forgiving.

 

Q-2: that person can't go for eid salah also, in that situation what is the alternative?

The Eid-prayers are what is known as ‘fard-kifaayah’ in Islamic Jurisprudence; whereby it is not obligatory on everyone like the muslim funeral prayers. If a portion of the believers offer the prayers, it would suffice for all the believers in the community; but if no one offered the prayers, the whole community would be responsible for the sin.

 

If one missed the Eid prayer in congregation, he is not required to pray this prayer alone.

 

Q-3: some muslims practise hypnotism, is it allowed in Islam, and what it is, is it like black magic? pls. explain.

Hypnotism is a manifestation of the heinous sin of magic, and is absolutely forbidden in Islam.

 

Q-4: will you pls. let me know how to glorify and praise Allah, in Arabic before making the supplications. i will be thankful to you

Some of the best phrases of glorifying and praising Allah Subhanah are:

Subhan-Allah: Glory be to Allah

Allah-o-Akbar: Allah is Greatest

Alhamdo lillaah: All Praise is due to Allah.

 

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said that one of the best phrases of remembrance or ‘dhikr’ of Allah Subhanah is:

“Laa ilaaha illal-laho, Wahdahu, Laa-sharika lahu, Lahul Mulk, wa Lahul Hamd, wa Howa ala kulle shayyin Qadeer.”

 

‘There is no god but Allah, He is The Only One, He has no partners, His is the Kingdom or Dominion, and All Praise is due to Him Alone, and He has Power over all things.’

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
