In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed clarifies that kite flying is not haram if done with precautions. It should take place in open fields or parks and avoid using harmful materials like metal strings that can cause injuries or damage. He compares it to games like hockey or football, which are permissible unless they involve harm. Activities only become problematic if they waste excessive time or cause societal issues.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that if a wife admits to zina (adultery) and repents, the husband should forgive her, as repentance can erase the sin. If the husband wants to punish her, both must swear oaths to confirm the truth. The husband must swear four times, and the wife can also swear to deny the accusation. If both are truthful in their oaths, the wife avoids punishment. The situation should be handled with fairness, privacy, and according to Islamic guidelines.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains the prayer schedule during Hajj, particularly at Arafat and Muzdalifah. At Arafat, the Imam combines Zuhr and Asr prayers with two rak'ahs each before Maghrib. In Muzdalifah, Maghrib is prayed after sunset with three rak'ahs, and Isha with two. During Hajj, prayers are shortened (Qasar) for obligatory prayers only. Sunnah Mu'akkadah prayers are not mandatory while traveling, but can be performed for reward.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that giving three divorces in one sitting is valid but considered sinful. Hazrat Umar (RA) enforced this rule to discourage its misuse but also punished those who practiced it. The preferred method is to give one talaq at a time, allowing for reconciliation during the iddah period. Three divorces at once finalize the separation, leaving no room for remarriage unless the woman marries and divorces another man naturally.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains the need for ijma (consensus) when companions had differing opinions on issues. For example, after the Battle of Ahzab, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) told Muslims not to pray Asr until they reached Banu Qurayzah. Some delayed the prayer as instructed, while others prayed on time, interpreting the command differently. Both actions were accepted. This highlights the importance of understanding the wisdom behind commands and using ijma to address disagreements in such matters.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that inheritance in Islam must be fairly divided among family members, with clear shares for sons, daughters, and others. He highlights that keeping property within the family, excluding women or non-Muslims, or claiming property after death is wrong. Misusing inheritance is a big sin in Islam. He stresses that Islamic law should guide how inheritance is divided, not local laws.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains why a grandchild (pota) does not inherit from a deceased grandparent if their own parent (the son or daughter of the deceased) is still alive. If the son is alive, the grandchild does not receive inheritance. However, if the son is deceased, the grandchild can inherit, as the inheritance would pass to the next line. He also explains that while the grandchild may not inherit, they can receive a gift or will from the grandparent during their lifetime, within legal limits.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed talks about the respect due to a son-in-law in Islam and the consequences if a wife disobeys her husband. He explains that a wife should respect her husband, and failing to do so can be a sin. He also discusses the importance of treating a son-in-law with honor while maintaining fairness. Regarding charity, Dr. Israr Ahmed says one can donate up to one-third of their wealth for good causes. Lastly, he encourages starting with obligatory prayers and gradually increasing one’s religious practices.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that using "waseela" in dua is permissible if it aligns with Islamic teachings, such as invoking a righteous deed or pious person for intercession. Dua is a direct connection with Allah, but intercession can be valid in specific cases. Allah answers prayers in three ways: granting the request, offering something better, or using it for spiritual benefit. Allah's response is always guided by His wisdom.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed emphasizes that we shouldn't argue about whether the deceased can hear us. The key is to greet them with "As-salamu alaykum" at the grave, as instructed by the Prophet. Instead of getting into debates about the afterlife, we should focus on good deeds like charity and prayers for the deceased. This approach helps avoid division and keeps the focus on beneficial actions.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains the concept of overall and specific superiority. Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the greatest of all prophets, but some, like Musa (AS), Isa (AS), and Ibrahim (AS), had unique qualities. Musa (AS) spoke directly to Allah, Isa (AS) performed unmatched miracles, and Ibrahim (AS) was Allah’s close friend and leader for humanity. Among the Sahaba, Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (RA) holds the highest rank, but others had specific strengths. This shows the balance of general greatness and individual distinctions in Islam.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed discusses whether Arabs are aware of the destruction that might befall them and if there’s a wise leader among them to warn against it. He shares three hadiths highlighting future challenges for Arabs, mentioning that some ignore such warnings. He emphasizes his views are based on Quran and Hadith, even if some nations dislike his statements about Arabs' future and its potential impact on Pakistan.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Hazrat Luqman was a Siddiq (truthful believer) with strong faith, not a prophet. Unlike regular believers, Siddiqs don’t require a prophet’s message to confirm their faith. He also mentions Hazrat Waraqah bin Nawfal, a Christian scholar, as the first to affirm Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)'s prophethood. Waraqah recognized the angel Jibreel and foretold the opposition the Prophet would face from his people.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Islam’s practices, such as modesty and gender segregation, are ethical measures to preserve morality, not signs of narrow-mindedness. While Western culture may view them as restrictive, they align with Islamic values. These principles should be understood within Islam’s framework rather than judged by external standards. Misinterpretations arise when viewed through a Western lens.

In this clip Israr Ahmed explains that while Islam does not forbid women from ruling, it is not ideal in the Islamic system. Women's primary role is in managing the household and raising children, not in leadership. He cites examples like Razia Sultana to show women can lead, but leadership in Islam is generally meant for men. The natural order in Islam focuses on family roles, with each gender fulfilling specific duties.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Bai'ah is a pledge to support Allah’s deen, where both men and women commit to following His commands. Men pledge to obey their leader as long as it aligns with Shariah, while women vow to avoid actions displeasing to Allah. Both pledge to sacrifice wealth and life for the cause of Islam. The commitment involves striving for the religion, even in difficult times. Ultimately, the goal is to raise Allah’s deen and make His name supreme.

In this clip Israr Ahmed explains that many prophets, like Hazrat Isa (AS), didn’t see immediate results from their efforts, but their teachings had a lasting impact over time. Despite little success in their lifetimes, their work eventually bore fruit. The message is that good deeds, though not always yielding quick results, will ultimately succeed, as seen with Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the spread of Islam.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed highlights that the Quran is fully preserved and must be completely believed without any doubt. In contrast, Hadith varies in authenticity, with classifications like Sahih (authentic) and Da'if (weak). Applying Hadith requires careful study, context, and analysis due to possible contradictions. Scholars have resolved such issues through detailed principles and prioritization. While the Quran is an absolute authority, Hadith needs thoughtful understanding and interpretation.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that a true Islamic revolution requires unity, and even a small dedicated group can make a big impact. The "silent majority" seems to support the system, but they are not actively involved. A Muslim leader must implement full Islamic law, or their claim of faith is false. Zia-ul-Haq, for instance, was expected to enforce Sharia law but didn't, which questioned his commitment to Islam.
