Topic: Sunna


  
  Sunna
Sunna also assigns the amount of the alms given to the poor and needy as well as the rituals of fasting and pilgrimage.
Sunna, sometimes comes out with new rules, revealed also from Allah like the illegality of marrying a woman and her aum at the same tinge, so as to keep strong the ties between relatives.
Sunna includes the prophet's sayings and deeds a well as his performance of worships before Muslim Muslims were careful in conceiving every word from the apostle and following it, and to learn from his saying and deeds.

 Mari Sunna
Sunna’s paintings, often small and always intensive, bring to mind the recollections that are recorded in flashes on the retina in the everyday life of a metropolis.
But Sunna’s paintings are explicitly "unfocused" or "imperfect", bringing to mind a camera shaken at the moment of exposure, a stopped video image, or the mirrors of amusement parks.
Sunna’s paintings are a reminder of the fact that a painting always involves a dialogue.

 Mari Sunna
Mostly, though, the faces in Sunna's paintings are simply blank.They are not effaced or denied, though, and this is hinted at by the fact that their blankness is not an emptiness or absence, it is creamy and solid.The figure (that is to say, the person) is not erased, masked or faded; it is fully present.
Sunna's paints these people blankly so as to make no demands on them to identify themselves, to reveal themselves, to be present for us.
All that is missing from Sunna's blank faces are the details, which are the fetishes of character and the facts of identification.

 What is the Distinction Between Hadith and Sunna?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The first sense of sunna is in the context of shari'a rulings, in which sunna is synonymous with the mandub or "recommended", meaning something that one deserves a reward in the next life for doing--such as using the miswak to clean one's teeth before prayer--but is not punished for not doing.
In this sense, sunna is strictly synonymous with hadith, and is used to distinguish one's evidence from that of the Qur'an.
And in contrast with the second sense, his sunna or way (Allah bless him and give him peace) is preserved not only in the hadith, but first and foremost in the Qur'an, for as Aisha (Allah be well pleased with her) notes in the hadith of al-Bukhari, "His character was the Qur'an".

 The sunna is the second source of the Islamic Legislation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The Sunna of the Prophet, upon him be peace and blessings, being every act, saying and confirmation of God’s Messenger, upon him be peace and blessings, is the second source of Islamic legislation after the Qur’an.
There are many more examples which show the place and role of the Sunna in embodying the Quranic commands, as well as in establishing new legislation such as, for example, the prohibition of eating the flesh of domestic donkeys and wild animals, and the prohibition of marriage to female cousins of a wife still living.
For this reason, the Sunna has been studied almost with the same care as the Quran: it was recorded, it has been studied and transmitted down the centuries through succeeding generations.

 Bida and Sunna in Sharia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The second point is that the sunna and way of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) was to accept new acts initiated in Islam that were of the good and did not conflict with established principles of Sacred Law, and to reject things that were otherwise.
Sunna and innovation (bida) are two opposed terms in the language of the Lawgiver (Allah bless him and give him peace), such that neither can be defined without reference to the other, meaning that they are opposites, and things are made clear by their opposites.
Many writers have sought to define innovation (bida) without defining the sunna, while it is primary, and have thus fallen into inextricable difficulties and conflicts with the primary textual evidence that contradicts their definition of innovation, whereas if they had first defined the sunna, they would have produced a criterion free of shortcomings.

 The sunna in the Quran   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The Sunna, the example of the Prophet, upon him be peace and blessings, is the main source of our religious life, promoted and encouraged by the Quran.
The Book is the Quran and the Wisdom is the Sunna which expands on what is brief in the Book and clarifies its ambiguities, specifies what is unconditional and general and vice versa, so that general principles or specific rulings can be understood from what is commanded in the Quran.
From this viewpoint, the Sunna is more comprehensive than the Quran and, without it, the Muslims cannot design their life according to the Quran.

 Splendid E-zine reviews: Sunna
According to the band, "Sunna" is supposed to represent faith without religion.
This made no bloody sense to me whatsoever, as this is the sort of band you listen to when you're having a crisis of faith -- in your religion, your dog, your career or in whatever you've centered your life around thus far.
Sunna's smarter than Tool, to whom they're most often compared, in that Sunna's approach to industrial metal is just as arty, but they're a bit more honest about their pop leanings.

 Probativeness of Sunna [1-3]
Al-Shafi'i pointed out that this decision is stipulated in the Sunna, not the Qur'an, and that had it been in the Qur'an there would have been no cause for specifying that by rejecting it they would not be believers.1 Further, their belief is invalid until they submit specifically to that ruling, i.e.
Sunna is tantamount to establishing the probativeness of all the different kinds of the Sunna such as the verbal Sunna (al-sunna al-qawliyya), the active Sunna (al-sunna al-fi`liyya), and the confirmative Sunna (al-sunna al-taqririyya).
Sunna is probative in all its aspects which we just mentioned and that there is no misguidance whatsoever in confirming to it.

 Amal (Page 1)
The sunna is not, as we said, synonymous with hadith because hadiths, while agreed to be completely authentic and sound, both in text and isnad, were not necessarily acted upon in the early period in Madina, and thus were not part of the sunna.
Thus sunna and amal are, in fact, closer to being synonyms than hadith and sunna, and you often find them being used as such: "The sunna of the Rightly-guided khalifs," for instance.
Ibn Mahdi said, "The established sunna from the sunna of the people of Madina is better than the hadith." This clearly shows the difference between Sunna and hadith.

An Icelandic woman who leads her own group is not the most common thing in jazz, but pianist Sunna Gunnlaugs just may be the best jazz pianist you’ve never heard.
As a child she played polkas and Beatles tunes on the organ in her homeland, but an encounter with an LP by pianist Bill Evans was, as she states, “the key that unlocked her creative spirit.” Although born in Iceland, she came to the United States to study music in 1992.
Sunna Gunnlaugs was such a discovery, and I am already anticipating her next CD, Live In Europe.

 The Meaning of Sunna
The above meanings of Sunna are used in contradistinction to the other four of the five legal categories for human actions - fard (obligatory), sunna, mubah (indifferent), makruh (disliked), haram (prohibited) - and applies in the usage of jurists from the second Hijri century onwards.
However, the jurists have stressed that the basis for all acts of worship categorized as sunna is "obligatoriness" not "permissiveness" (al-asl fee al-sunna al-wujub la al-ibaha).
All that Ishaq meant was that if they concur on a given matter then it is most probably correct, just as we say, today, that it is nearly impossible to find the truth outside of what the Four Imams of scholarly endeavor agreed upon.

In fact, unlike that film, Sunna's release is pleasantly unpredictable, squashing any attempts to pigeonhole the band into any cliched sect of modern rock.
Preparing to tour with A Perfect Circle this fall, Sunna could manage to sneak their hooks into the minds of a whole new audience.
But like many of these bands that pride themselves on a "post-millennial" sound, groups that often rely so much on technology that their albums are more machine than man, Sunna will have to prove itself in a live situation.

 Why Muslims Must Follow the Sunna As Well As the Quran
Their mistake is to assume that the Sunna and the hadiths are the same thing.
Determining the Sunna: The science of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) is the science of deriving rulings from the sources of Shari'a.
It is only after this analysis that the scholar has made his determination of what the Sunna is. He does not simply pick and choose hadiths at random, or take their text out of context.

 The Probativeness of the Sunna [15]
If the Sunna were not probative then this would not be the case.
As a result no-one would have understood what exactly they are held responsible for, the rulings would have been disregarded, the legal liabilities (al-takalif) would have been cancelled and in vain, all of which is absurd and impossible on the part of Allah Almighty and Exalted.

Thanks to this timely breakthrough a new tool is available for the continuous renewal of the Islamic response to the world, a response which changes through the ages, but which is based always on two sources, the Qur’an and the Sunna.
The Qur’an, being relatively small, presents no real problems of access, but the Sunna, which is vast and scattered, poses a much greater problem.
The second aspect of the Foundation’s Sunna Project is the formation of the International Hadith Study Association Network.

Wearing the jilbab, izar (loin-wrap), thawb (long cloth), `imama (turban),(2) jubba (coat or mantle), sirwal (baggy pants) and so forth is of the Prophet's Sunna of dress and we care not one whit for the secular-minded who reduce this aspect of Islam to an unimportant or unnecessary Sunna.
Nor is the assertion of the author of Fiqh as-Sunna acceptable whereby "There is no evidence whatsoever that it is preferred to cover one's head while praying" in his section entitled "Prayer prerequisites," in light of the evidence we are citing.

 Islam and Hadith (Sunnah of the Prophet) - The Categories of the Sunna
The first category of the Sunna consists in the blessed words of God’s Messenger, which provide a basis for many religious commandments.
The Sunna, however restricts this ‘general’ rule (commandment) by allowing as food the flesh of sea creatures that have died in water.
God’s Messenger, upon him be peace and blessings, corrected the mistakes of his Companions, but not by specifying the one who did the mistake; he never exposed anyone publicly.
