SALAAH OF A SICK PERSON

Q. When is a person allowed to perform his/her Salaah in a sitting position?
A. A person will be allowed to perform Salaah in a sitting position under the following circumstances:

* When a sick person has no stenght to stand and perform his Salaah.
* When standing may cause a person great pain.
* When standing may increase a person's illness.
* When a person is able to stand but cannot go into Ruku or Sajdaah.

Q. How should one complete the acts of Ruku and Sajdaah when one does not have the ability to physically fulfill these acts?
A. If one cannot go into Ruku or Sajdaah then one should fulfill these acts by way of indication. i.e. bowing the head slightly for Ruku and abit more for Sajdaah.

Q. What happens in a situation when a person cannot perform Salaah standing or sitting?
A. If aperson cannot perform Salaah standing or sitting then he/she should perform it lying down. i.e. Lie down on the back with the legs towards the Qiblah. The legs should not be stretched towards the qibla but the knees should be raised if possible. The head should rest at a high level with a pillow under it.

Q. What happens if a person does not even have the ability to make Ruku or Sajdaah by way of indication?
A. In this case, Salaah should not be performed. If this condition continues for more than one day and night, one will not be bound to make up (Qaza) for the missed Salaah. However if one gains the ability to move his/her head (to perform Ruku and Sajdaah by way of indication) within a day or night or in a period lesser than that, then the missed Salaah will have to be performed (Qaza will have to be made).

Q. If a sick person's bedding is impure and changing it would cause great inconvenience, can Salaah be performed on such bedding?
A. Yes, in this case Salaah can be performed on such bedding.

N.B. Whether it is a question of sitting or lying down or any aspect in this regard, it is very easy to deceive the public however we should always keep in mind that Allah knows our condition. These rulings should only be implemented under dire necessity.

(Taleemul Haq Pg 142,143,144)

MESSAGE

SOME ENCOURAGEMENT IN THE WORK PLACE

There was a farmer who collected horses; he only needed one more breed to complete his collection. One day, he found out that his neighbour had the particular horse breed he needed. So, he constantly bothered his neighbour until he sold it to him. A month later, the horse became ill and he called the veterinarian, who said: "Well, your horse has a virus. He must take this medicine for three days.. I'll come back on the 3rd day and if he's not better, we're going to have to put him down."

Nearby, the goat listened closely to their conversation. The next day, they gave him the medicine and left. The goat approached the horse and said: Be strong, my friend. Get up or else they're going to put you to sleep! On the second day, they gave him the medicine and left. The goat came back and said: Come on buddy, get up or else you're going to die! Come on, I'll help you get up. Let's go! One, two, three...

On the third day, they came to give him the medicine and the vet said: Unfortunately, we're going to have to put him down tomorrow. Otherwise, the virus might spread and infect the other horses. After they left, the goat approached the horse and said: Listen pal, it's now or never! Get up, come on! Have courage! Come on! Get up! Get up! That's it, slowly! Great! Come on, one, two, three... Good, good. Now faster, come on.... Fantastic! Run, run more! Yes! Yay! Yes! You did it, you're a champion!!!

All of a sudden, the owner came back, saw the horse running in the field and began shouting: It's a miracle! My horse is cured. This deserves a party. Let's kill the goat!

Points for reflection: This often happens in the workplace. Nobody truly knows which employee actually deserves the merit of success, or who's actually contributing the necessary support to make things happen.

LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT RECOGNITION IS A SKILL!
If anyone ever tells you that your work is unprofessional, remember: amateurs built the Ark and professionals built the Titanic.
DON'T LOOK TO BECOME A PERSON OF SUCCESS, LOOK INSTEAD TO BECOME A PERSON OF VALUE!

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.
