Answer:
Cover face in ehram
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.
Q-1:In
the state of Ah'raam can we cover our face (niqab)...as i have heared that the
cloth should not touch the nose.Can u help with the refrence.Jazak Allah!
The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: "A
pilgrim woman must neither cover her face nor wear gloves."
Related by Ahmad and Bukhari.
It is not permissible for a pilgrim woman to cover her
face or her hands upto her wrists while she is in the state of ‘ehraam’ for
pilgrimage.
If Allah Subhanah has blessed one amongst the believing
women to adorn the ‘naqaab’ which covers her face, she would be required to
remove her face cover and leave her hands upto her wrists uncovered as soon as
she enters into the state of ‘ehram’ from the ‘Meeqat’ until she completes her
pilgrimage and comes out of the state of ‘ehram’.
Q-2:
Someone told me that on The Day of Judgement everyone will be called after
their mothers name.LIke here in this world we are recognized by our father
name.is this True??
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 33 Surah
Ahzaab verse 5:
Call them by (the names) of their fathers: that is juster in the
sight of Allah, but if ye know not their
father's (names call them) your Brothers in faith or your friends. But there is no blame on you if ye make a
mistake therein: (what counts is) the
intention of your hearts: and Allah is Oft-Returning Most Merciful.
Allah Subhanah has guided the believers to call the
believers by their father’s name in the life of this world; and there is absolutely no reason to assume
that when we are given life again in the life of the Hereafter, we will be called by our mother’s name!
There is absolutely nothing mentioned in the Glorious
Quran or the authentic and established Sunnah regarding the misconception that
one will be called by their mother’s name on the Day of Judgment, unless of
course, one happens to be Prophet Isa son of Hadrat Maryam (a.s.)!
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
