22 Feb 2023video LatestShould scholars publicly condemn a scholar said to have joined in a libation ritual?

17 Jan 2020Responding to Refutations Is it a Sunnah for women to pray in a wardrobe or the innermost room? The claim that women praying in a wardrobe is a Sunnah rests on a weak, indeed false, hadith that is not a saying of the Prophet.

4 May 2019On Current Events Have Muslims really kept women out of mosques for 1,400 years?
