There are no halal means to a haram.

Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

 

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

I have heard a hadith, where the prophet (saws) said: “There are no halal means to a haram end; and there are no haram means to a halal end”, meaning that the means and end result/objective both must be halal for a deed to qualify as a halal deed.

 

(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)

 

Answer:

 

Prophet(saws) hadeeth authentic

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 none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Dear and beloved brother in Islam, as much as the message of the statement declared may be absolutely true and correct, to the best of our knowledge, we have not come across or found the exact quoted narration in any of the books of the authentic and established hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (saws).

 

But without an iota of a doubt, both the means and the ‘intended’ end result must be lawful for a deed to be accepted as good and righteous by Allah Subhanah.

 

Sahih Muslim Hadith 2214 Narrated by Abu Hurayrah

Allah's Messenger (saws) said: ‘O people, Allah is Good and Pure and He, therefore, accepts only that which is good and pure!’

 

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

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
