.:Suhūr:.

Said RasūlAllāh ﷺ:

“The distinctinction between our fasting and the fasting of the people of the Book is the eating of suhūr.”

[Muslim]

See, may Allāh have mercy upon you, that the Most Beloved ﷺ differentiated between us and them even in fasting.
How, much more necessary is it to then differentiate ourselves in the rest of our affairs? If even our fasting is not to be as their fasting, then how can it be conceived that our ideologies and morals be the same as theirs?
Should we then be ashamed of our religion before them and deny parts and alter others in order to please them and make our own beliefs and ideas in line with theirs?

No, rather we must submit fully and maintain our difference with them.

.:Accusing a man of rape without evidence:.

It has become common for Muslims to accuse men of rape without sufficient evidence, and to then spread such among society. Some imagine that a mere claim of a woman, without the necessary proof,
is a satisfactory criterion by which a Muslim can be accused of a major sin. To the extent that we have such statements being said, and people are liking and pleased with them:
In the sharīáh, rape is a coerced form of zinā, and so is established only by what causes zinā to be established; testimony of four upright Muslim witnesses, or confession. Besides this, it is not permissible to accuse someone of any form of zinā, including rape.

In Ĥanafī Fiqh rape is, “istikrāh ála al-zinā”, coercion upon zinā.

In Mukhtaşar Ikhtilāfi'l Úlamā authored by Imām Abū Jaáfar al-Ţaĥāwī al-Ĥanafī [239-321 AH / 843-933 CE] is the section, “Regarding the one who is coerced upon zinā”:

“Our companions [i.e. scholars] have said,
if he coerces a woman and commits zinā with her, then upon him is the Ĥadd, and there is no Mahr upon him. And this is the saying of Ibn Shubrumah and Thawrī.”

Vol. 3, pg. 298.
Imām Qudūrī al-Ĥanafī [362-428 AH / 973-1037 CE] writes in Tajrīd in the section, “The man's coercion of a woman upon zinā.”:

“Our companions have said that if the man coerces a woman upon zinā, then upon him is the Ĥ￲add, but there is no Mahr upon him.”

Vol. 7, pg. 3343

There is no such principle in Islām. Rather, the accused is innocent until proven guilty, and any claim cannot be accepted unless there is valid proof.

RasūlAllāh ﷺ said:

“If the people were given by their claims, they would claim the lives of people and their properties”
Muslim, #1711.

Imām Nawawī comments on this saying:

“This hadīth represents a great principle of the principles of the rulings of the sharīáh. In it, is that the word of a person is not taken in what he claims by his lone claim,
rather it requires clear proof or affirmation of the defendant”

12/3

Just as a person is not considered guilty of murder or theft, or any other crime based merely on a claim, likewise a person cannot be accused of rape/sexual abuse without proof.

Let us analyse these reports.

a. This ĥadīth is munkar, and munkar narrations are not taken in matters of áqīdah.

Imām Badruddīn Maĥmūd al-Ĥanafī al-Aynī writes about this ĥadīth:

“It is a munkar ĥadīth, in its chain is Muĥammad ibn Ismāýīl al-Jaáfarī,
he narrates it from Ábdullāh ibn Salamah ibn Aslam. Jaáfarī is munkar al-ĥadīth, said by Abū Ĥātim, and Dār Quţnī weakened Ábdullāh ibn Salamah, and Abū Nuáym said: [he is] matrūk.”

Úmdatu’l Qārī, 7/198.

Thus, this narration is not accepted.
b. The chain of this report contains two Qadarīs, i.e. those who denied the Qadar, namely Shibl ibn Ábbād, and Ábdullāh ibn Abī Nujayh. The latter was even suspected of tadlīs.

Yesterday an article was published by the New York Post which informs us of the wishes of certain individuals to decriminalise consensual incest and the arguments put forth.

Let us have a read and analysis of this.
Here we see that appeal is made to the argument of them being consenting adults.

According to modern-day secular, and mostly western, belief, for a relationship/marriage to be acceptable, it must be according to their ideas of:

1. Consent

2. Adulthood
This are the reasons why same-sex relationships/marriages are completely acceptable according to such a belief system and worldview, as both are in fact present in same-sex relationships/marriages as both partners are adult and consenting.
