Re: Application of Sunnat in household affairs

While throwing if we read 'Bismillah' than Muslim Jinnat will eat them otherwise Mushrik jinnat. Same as before start eating any meat on bone, if we read 'Bismillah' than the Muslim Jinnat will share each bite with use. :)

Re: Application of Sunnat in household affairs

Volume 3, Book 47, Number 783(bukhari)
Narrated Ibn Umar:

Once the Prophet went to the house of Fatima but did not enter it. 'Ali came and she told him about that. When 'All asked the Prophet about it, he said, "I saw a (multi-colored) decorated curtain on her door. I am not interested in worldly things." 'Ali went to Fatima and told her about it. Fatima said, "I am ready to dispense with it in the way he suggests." The Prophet ordered her to send it to such-and-such needy people. "

I just could find this for now but I have ready in few ahadith where Prophet Muhammed(P) refused to enter a sahabi's house where there were 'makhmal' (velvet) layered curtains and entered only after they were removed.

Re: Application of Sunnat in household affairs

^ I think the spirit behind this is discouragement of material excess. Why stop at velvet, makes sense to disallow the use of silks as well. Speaking of the evil of 'worldly things,' I'm thinking the gown/pishwas/anarkali fashion isn't exactly kosher either, considering how much material - opulent fabric at that - is used, but sigh, who can resist. :D

37

Re: Application of Sunnat in household affairs

Really? I had no idea about the velvet curtains. There goes my idea down the drain :(

Re: Application of Sunnat in household affairs

JazakAllah for this thread - you forget to do so many little things or do them without realising why you're doing them in the daily lives - this serves as a wonderful reminder.
