Title

I want to study and get married

Question

 

I want to become an alim and do studies plus get married.

Is there some du’a I may be able to recite so I can get high grades and a du’a to get a pious wife soon?

Is smoking Haraam?

Was salatul janaza read on RasullAllah (s.a.w)? Every one

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

  1. It is a universally accepted fact that smoking is injurious to the smoker and to his surroundings. Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم)  said, “There is no causing harm to oneself and to other in Islam.” It is clear from the aforegoing that smoking is prohibited.
  2. Salatul Janaza was performed on Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم). There was no one Imam for the salatul Janaza of Rasullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم). Sahaba came in groups and each sahabi performed salatul Janaza by himself.

We take note of your zeal to study and get married. May Allah make you successful in all your endeavors, Ameen.

And Allah knows best

Wassalam
