2021/09/03

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Indeed, we belong to Allah, and to Him do we indeed return.

His Eminence, Grand Ayatullah al-Sayyid Muhammad Sa’eed al-Tabataba’i al-Hakeem, has passed away to and returned to his Lord, the Most High. We pay our condolences to the nation of Islam, especially to the followers of the Ahlulbait (Peace be upon them) and the Islamic seminaries (Hawzas).

 We pray to Allah Almighty to bestow upon him His extensive and abundant mercy and blessings, and to raise him with the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and the Ahlulbait (peace be upon him).

There is no power or strength, except that of Allah, the Most High, the Most Mighty.

 

The Office of His Eminence al-Sayyid al-Hakeem, 25 Muharram 1443 (3 September, 2021)

Day Questions

Is human cloning permissible in Islam?

Yes, it is permissible.

My legal divorce from my husband is taking many months, maybe one year. My husband refuses to do Islamic divorce until the legal divorce is finalized. In this period of waiting, may I perform temporary marriage with another man? If I have my needs to be fulfilled?

You are still his wife. You are not permitted to marry another man, and it is one of the major sins to do so. We advise you to reconsider returning to your husband and finding a way to reconcile the issues that have come up.

Do bleeding gums make wudhu void?

No, the bleeding of the gums does not invalidate the wudhu.

For how long should one ask for something important from Almighty Allah?

There is no specific time period for waiting for the response to one’s supplication. But, if the believer insists on asking and seeking, then such supplications are closer to be answered.
