 السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته سلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته ورحمة الله وبركاته اهقام SOS شخص that discuss Islamic practices and duties بحيث امارناته انا احضار مصنشاء ورحمة الله السلام عليكم سيكون عن أكسرافغنس وسكوندرن اشراف وتبذير ماذا هذا ؟ و ماذا يفعل ؟ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم وصل الله على محمد وآله الطيبين الطاهرين لنبدأ with the two verses of the Holy Quran with regard to Israf and Tabdir الله says in Surah Al-A'raf ayat 31 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم وكلوا وشربوا ولا تصرفوا انه لا يحبوا المصرفين وكلوا وكلوا but not by extravagance انه لا يحبوا المصرفين في the second ayah الله سبحانه وتعالى بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ان المبذرين كانوا اخوان الشياطين وكان الشيطان للربه كفورا الشيطان هو بسخة الشياطان والبسخة هو اردت وضعه بواقعه وضعه وطلعه اخوان الشيطان وضعه وطلعه وطلعه وطلعه وفي منطقة فالفعلة من بعض المجموعة من المجموعة يقولون أن تتبع المدينة في المكان المخطف هو مدينة لتكون مدينة لذا دعنا نقول أنت تدخل شيئاً ونستخدمها وكذلك فقط تخطيها شيئاً ما أنت تساعد أنت لديك مدينة لك أنت تخطيها لك هذا هو مدينة لتكون مدينة وتبذير فهو اخبار one car اخبار اخبار اخر للمعارض لتحديه في الوصول او اخبار اخر او اخبار او اخبار او اخبار او اخبار لتحديه شيء لن احتاج لتفعل مع محتاج ونحتاج ليس محارب ونحن فهذا هذا هو how تبذير ونصراف يمكن أن يكون ورد ونفع ونحن بالنسبة له او اخبار ونحن ونحاديث عن إصراف ونتبذير لكتب كماندر فيطر ممعالي عليه السلام هو تقول في حال إصراف هو تقول تقول تقول تقول تقول تقول تقول تقول فهي ليست مرحباً للمساعدة الله هذا المساعدة من الله يقول أنه يأت أكثر than محتوى one of the first extravagant signs and you can actually see and define within somebody or some people that that person eats more than he requires so if I'm for example if I can just eat let's say two apples if I eat the third it's going to be more than required that's israf, the third apple that I ate is israf and of course it's harmful as well for the stomach the second sign that he wears more than is suitable for him sometimes I wear special clothes for work and they become dirty because of the work nature but if I use that clothes which I bought especially for the weddings and parties and so forth for work that's israf or for example if I buy twenty suits and I just need three or four suits and that's it the excess and the extra suits are always israf because I desire it's like a hobby desire that I want to have more clothes more food for example variety of foods which I don't really need of them some people just want to have an open bouffet of food for example variety of food although they can actually follow themselves with just a bit of required food so anything goes over the requirements becomes israf so the second sign he wears more than is suitable for him and then buys things needlessly so he buys things that he doesn't need again the example of the suits for example he buys fifty suits he buys four cars five cars that he doesn't need actually just for the pleasure so they all counted under the title of israf so شيخلا a more contemporary issue or a modern day for this احقام can we say that using utensils I mean here in the west we use silver for knives and forks and spoons can we use silver and gold for utensils such as this in overall using utensils made of pure gold and silver to eat and drink with so cups or plates and so forth utensils it is haram and forbidden so a mu'min should avoid using these types of utensils in any means what about if we are to let's say we want to purchase an extra car we have one car that we use but I want to upgrade maybe it's out on my financial capability at present but in today's society if you can get loans and things like that car companies offer really good deals where you can pay small amount every month until the end of the payment is this considered israf or is this actually acceptable it's okay as I've mentioned if it's something extra and excess to the need of your own household sometimes I need two cars one for the husband and one for the wife for the young adult who is also in that house so it depends on the need if there's a need why not but if there's no need then that also counts as israf and we should avoid it but anyhow going back to the topic of the utensils in terms of using gold and silver those who also manufacture and make those utensils and sell them for them it's haram and forbidden to receive wages and income for making that cup or plate which is made of pure gold so even making that and manufacturing is haram as well and forbidden so getting that wage or money for making that utensils also makes those who get that money haram so imagine those who gets that income and use them for themselves شخناء we see a lot on social media we see rich extravagant leaders of countries who spend ridiculous amount of money they want a motorcycle made out of gold or a car or they'll spend money on an iPhone case made out of pure gold is this okay or is this also israf again I've mentioned this this is something to do with luxury pleasure, interest, enjoyment entertainment it's nothing to do with the need and requirements so they're actually committing israf and tabdir and somehow of course they are actually moving towards this this phase of committing in some cases sin because they're wasting their money millions of money went for example for something that they don't really need we're talking about gold and silver at the moment but what about something like saffron I mean it's very very expensive to use we use it a lot in our dishes isn't this israf no that's actually in some food we need it so we use it for some food it's just to give nice scent and smell to their food that's a different issue to buy you know for example some foods are very expensive but we actually buy it because we need it for certain ingredients and to make some kind of food so buying such food it's not israf unless it goes beyond the need so you know buying too much using too much goes beyond the need and then becomes israf and which is we should avoid it one could argue that why do you need to purchase expensive food and expensive meat when it's sufficient for you to buy something that's a lot cheaper or the cheapest where do you draw the line with israf you know sometimes you can get the most delicious food in a reasonable price and even at home for example even if you are a prosperous person and you have the means of going and buying that expensive food from an expensive restaurant if you can actually afford that yourself at home or somewhere which is reasonable price and why not شخص you were saying about utensils gold and silver what if the gold and silver isn't 100% gold and silver it's not 24 karat gold it's 12 karat or even smaller is that still haram to use if that utensil was made of let's say partially gold and the other part was metal for example and mixed together in a way that if somebody you know a goldsmith for example if they actually see it people will see it and say notice that if they say it's gold then it's haram to use of course let's say 70-80% is gold if it's metal then of course that's haram to use but if it's mainly when people see it they would say that it's actually metal it's a metal plate for example it's not a gold plate in that case it's haram to use so it depends on the percentage of the metal or any other material used in making that utensil so can we say it's on the consensus of the people that is this item considered gold or not if it's considered gold then it's a small amount of a small amount of ratio or if it's gold plated then yeah we do actually see this as a valuable metal then yes that this is haram to use but if it's a little bit of gold just for whatever purpose and we don't consider it to be gold we consider it to be a metal then it's okay to use as always yes of course I mean again it depends on the amount of metal used in that utensil is it more than the gold when it's actually made when you look outside at that plate or cup is it actually a metal cup or plate or is it golden so it depends on the view of the orph as they say or the experts who would actually define and to see differentiate between a metal plate or a golden plate I understand I want to be a bit cheeky here and talk about something that we probably see in our community a lot and that's weddings and celebrations can Israf attack us in this situation where we want to spend a lot of money on decorating on hiring out nice cars for the event maybe extra things that we don't need maybe they want to like I went to one when there was a guy carving shapes out of ice and serving fruit sometimes they have animals involved if you go back home where I come from there's elephants and camels is this Israf again it depends as I've said if if they were moderate in spending these things even in weddings you know sometimes you need in weddings to spend of it to buy gold to buy new suits suits for example to hire a place for example we can actually get a reasonable price to hire a venue and hold the weddings in such places instead of going and spending and over spend and to find somewhere which is very expensive like the five star hotels venue so we try to be moderate we try to be humble we try to follow the tradition of the professor and his pure family and how they spent their what they had for their weddings for example what was the door of the زهرا سلام الله عليها when she was married and so forth so we have to look at the history of the holy imams and the pure family of the professor and learn from them in overall شخنة you were discussing using gold in silver utensils what if someone isn't sure that is this actually made out of gold or silver can you use it well in such cases there's no objection in using such utensils when you're not sure if it's gold or silver real gold or silver you know sometimes you go somewhere and they bring you a cup of water and looks like a golden cup but you're not sure in such cases yes you can use them because you're not sure about them so you're allowed to use it until you become sure that it's gold or silver شخنة there's a difference between gold in the material gold being used to make a utensil and gold plated as in that there has been some sort of gold paint put on top of the plate or the utensil is that also haram to use well the golden plated and silver plated utensils are different than the original pure gold and silver plated utensils so the ones which were painted or polished by gold and the original plate or cup is actually made of metal or anything else or wood then that can be used there's no objection about it what is the احقام ruling for using animal skin whether it be from a dog pig cup or not حلال animal for utensils and also for jackets bags basket balls other goods are we allowed to use these or are we supposed to refrain from them with regard to using the carcass or the corpse of dead animals which were not slotted according to حلال حلال way let's say the cow skin and the sheep and so forth as well as the dog and the pig because they are نجس they are impure when allowed to use them for drinking or eating for example a cup of tea used for made by the skin of a pig for example or a meat for example corpse for example also to eat with that plate or utensils to eat drink do with وضو as well so a bottle of water made of the pig skin for example to do the وضو is نجس you cannot do the وضو غسل the واجه غسل especially it will void the غسل you cannot use impure water to do the غسل and وضو but with regard to using them other than these things drinking eating وضو and so forth and غسل to use them for example as a materials used in the bag for example bags shoes for example basketball footballs all types of the usage outside the usage of the oneself then there's no objection although it's with regard to the the meat for example it's better not to use them as a مستحاب ركوشن but it is allowed to use so there's no objection so it's مستحاب to refrain from it yes to stay away from it yes of course but if you use it there's no harami usage no objection no you can still use it yes thank you very much thank you thank you very much to all of you who's been joining us on this discussion
