Adoption:

Muslims are Encouraged to Help the Needy / Orphans: We Muslims have GREAT BIG HEART to help all:

Think of Tsunami in 26-DEC-2004, in South East Asia, which had wiped out many communities. Think of, if only a 6 year old child survived and his / her all family members were lost. Where will he / she live and who will support and put a parental hand on his / her head. Yes, we cannot change their father’s name does not mean that we cannot fully support them. We Muslims have GREAT BIG HEART to support all the need as much as we can. We are fully allowed to keep them with us and fully support them, without changing their father name. Also keep in Mind the Islaamic Inheritance Law does not permit you to include them in your Inheritance, like your own Close Blood Relatives, although you can help them and educate them to become a good member of the society.

Proclaim their relationship to their (biological) fathers (BUT you can be legal Guardian to fully support them); this is more equitable with Allah; but if you do not know their fathers, then they are your brethren in faith and your friends; and there is no blame on you concerning that in which you made a mistake, but (concerning) that which your hearts do purposely (blame may rest on you), and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Quraan_033.005)

Mothers are not only those who gave birth to you, they are also your mothers that have suckled you , regardless of your age, this point also may resolve many confusions on Mahram and Non-Mahram:

….. your mothers that have suckled you (regardless of your age, although it is not recommended after two years of age ) ….. (Ref: Al_Quraan_004.023)

And We have enjoined man in respect of his parents– his mother bears him with faintings upon faintings and his weaning takes two years– saying: Be grateful to Me and to both your parents; to Me is the eventual coming. (Al_Quraan_031.014)

If you can then try adopting little tiny baby, those women who are adopting should try to Breast Feed the baby and even few drops of feeding is enough to create new relationship of Mother and Chilc. This will not only resolve the issue of Mahram and Non-Mahram in the family, BUT also increase the love between the lady and the baby, Inshaa Allah. If for some reason they are not able to Breast Feed the baby, then consult their Family Doctor, who can help you. Now we are living in scientific age and there is no harm in getting help from science.

Help the Orphans:

And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. (Al_Quraan_004.009)

It is NOT righteousness that you turn your faces to the East and the West; BUT righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Scripture and the Prophets; and gives his wealth, for love of Him(Allah ), to Kinsfolk and to Orphans and the Needy and the Wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observes proper worship and pays the poor due. And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are they who are SINCERE. Such are the God fearing. (Al_Quraan_002.177)

Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him). And as for him who asks, do not chide (him), And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (rehearse and proclaim it). (Al_Quraan_093.009-011)

And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. (Al_Quraan_004.009)

TEST TUBE BABY / ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION is ALLOWED in Islaam:

We are living in scientific age, and when we get sick we try to get recover as soon as possible, with the help of latest scientific invention. Similarly, if some one is not having baby, there is no harm on trying ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION, as long as the samples from both the spouses are used. Remember, any external donor is FORBIDEN

Abortion / Family Planning: Punishments for Murder or other wounds:

Unless
there is Clear Medical Reason with the consult of Doctor, do not think
of it. Allah provides sustain which includes looking after. Look After
Your Kids with True Justice. Do not let the Kids grow on Streets,
instead Give Full Attention to Your Kids. It is 24 Hours in a day and 7
Days a Week Duty to Little Tiny Infant Kids.

Say: Come I will recite what
your Lord has forbidden to you– (remember) that you do not associate
anything with Him and show kindness to your parents, and
do not slay your children for (fear of) poverty– We provide for you and for them–
and do not draw nigh to indecencies, those of them which are apparent
and those which are concealed, and do not kill the soul which Allah has
forbidden except for the requirements of justice; this He has enjoined
you with that you may understand. (Al_Quraan_006.151)

We need to remember that Saving a Life is like Saving the Whole World. (Ref. Al_Quraan_005.032)
.

And there is life for you in (the law of) retaliation (Qisaas), O men of understanding, that you may guard yourselves.
(Al_Quraan_002.179)

They are lost indeed who kill
their children foolishly without knowledge, and forbid what Allah has
given to them forging a lie against Allah; they have indeed gone
astray, and they are not the followers of the right course. (Al_Quraan_006.140)

And We prescribed to them in
it that life is for life, and eye for eye, and nose for nose, and ear
for ear, and tooth for tooth, and (that there is) reprisal in wounds;
but he who foregoes it, it shall be an expiation for him; and whoever
did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the
unjust. (Al_Quraan_005.045)

O you who
believe! retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the slain,
the free for the free, and the slave for the slave, and the female for
the female, but if any remission is made to any one by his (aggrieved)
brother, then prosecution (for the bloodwit) should be made according
to usage, and payment (Qisaas) should be made to him in a good manner;
this is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy; so whoever exceeds
the limit after this he shall have a painful chastisement. (Al_Quraan_002.178)

If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are Unbelievers. (Al_Quraan_005.044)

(True Justice you need do at home, at work, in the court and in the assembly etc.)

And
eat not up your property among yourselves in vanity, nor seek by it to
gain the hearing of the judges that ye may knowingly devour a portion
of the property of others wrongfully. (Al_Quraan_002.118)

Give full measure and full weight, in justice. (Al_Quraan_006.152)

O you who believe! be
maintainers of justice, bearers of witness of Allah’s sake, though it
may be against your own selves or (your) parents or near relatives; if
he be rich or poor, Allah is nearer to them both in compassion;
therefore do not follow (your) low desires, lest you deviate; and if
you swerve or turn aside, then surely Allah is aware of what you do. (Al_Quraan_004.135)

Surely We revealed the Taurat
in which was guidance and light; with it the prophets who submitted
themselves (to Allah) judged (matters) for those who were Jews, and the
masters of Divine knowledge and the doctors, because they were required
to guard (part) of the Book of Allah, and they were witnesses thereof;
therefore fear not the people and fear Me, and do not take a small
price for My communications; and whoever did not judge by what Allah
revealed, those are they that are the unbelievers. (Al_Quraan_005.044)

And
We prescribed to them in it that life is for life, and eye for eye, and
nose for nose, and ear for ear, and tooth for tooth, and (that there
is) reprisal in wounds; but he who foregoes it, it shall be an
expiation for him; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed,
those are they that are the unjust. (Al_Quraan_005.045)

And
the followers of the Injeel should have judged by what Allah revealed
in it; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they
that are the transgressors. (Al_Quraan_005.047)

Tips to understand Quraan:

After means never ever before. Anyone means Muslims are also included.

Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? (Al_Quraan_039.009)

(So their
votes are also not equal. e.g. if we want to elect an Health Minister,
only Doctors should be allowed to vote to Senior Specialist Doctors

Ablution: Wudhu:

O you who believe! do not go
near prayer when you are Intoxicated until you know (well) what you
say, nor when you are under an obligation to perform a bath / Shower –
unless (you are) travelling on the road– until you have washed yourselves;
and if you are sick, or on a journey, or one of you come from the privy
or you have touched the women, and you cannot find water, betake
yourselves to pure earth, then wipe your faces and your hands; surely
Allah is Pardoning, Forgiving. (Al_Quraan_004.043)

O ye who believe! When ye
rise up for prayer, wash you faces, and your hands up to the elbows,
and lightly rub your heads and (wash) your feet up to the ankles. And
if ye are unclean, purify yourselves. And if ye are sick or on a
journey, or one of you cometh from the closet, or ye have had contact
with women, and ye find not water, then go to clean, high ground and
rub your faces and your hands with some of it. Allah would not place a
burden on you, but He would purify you and would perfect His grace upon
you, that ye may give thanks. (Al_Quraan_005.006)
