53.29
PRECAUTIONS:
4:71 - O ye who believe! take your precautions and either go forth in parties or go forth all together.
588
588 No fight should be undertaken without due preparations and precautions. When these are taken, we must go boldly
forward. "Go forth" is therefore repeated for emphasis. But we must go forth in a collective spirit, and not in a selfish
spirit-either in small parties or all together, as our Leader determines. We must not tarry like the doubter in the next
two verses. (4.71)
4:102 - When thou (O Apostle) art with them and standest to lead them in prayer let one party of
them stand up (in prayer) with thee taking their arms with them: when they finish their
prostrations let them take their positions in the rear and let the other party come up which hath
not yet prayed and let them pray with thee taking all precautions and bearing arms: the
unbelievers wish if ye were negligent of your arms and your baggage to assault you in a single
rush but there is no blame on you if ye put away your arms because of the inconvenience of
rain or because ye are ill; but take (every) precaution for yourselves. For the unbelievers Allah
hath prepared a humiliating punishment. 618
618 The congregational prayer in danger in face of the enemy rests on the principle that the congregation should be
divided into two parties; one party prays while the other watches the enemy, and then the second party comes up to
prayers while the first falls back to face the enemy; either party does only one or two Rakats, or about half the
congregational prayer; every precaution is taken to prevent a rush by the enemy; even while at prayers armour and
arms need not be put off except when rain is likely to cause inconvenience to the wearer and damage to the arms, or
when illness or fatigue causes the wearer's strength to fail. Details can be varied according to circumstances, as was
actually done by the Prophet at different times. (4.102)
28:6 - To establish a firm place for them in the land and to show Pharaoh Haman and their hosts at
their hands the very things against which they were taking precautions. 33313332
3331 Haman was evidently Pharaoh's minister, not to be confounded with a Haman who is mentioned in the Old Testament
(Esther iii.1), as a minister of Ahasuerus (Xerxes) King of Persia, the same who invaded Greece, and ruled from B.C.
485 to 464. (28.6)
3332 Pharaoh was trying to kill the Israelites. Instead, the Plagues of Egypt, invoked by Moses, killed thousands of
Egyptians (vii. 133, and notes 1091-92), because "they were steeped in arrogance,-a people given to sin." In pursuing
the Israelites in their flight, Pharaoh and his army were themselves overwhelmed in the sea. (28.6)
Fiqh-us-Sunnah
Fiqh 1.76
Allah explains how to pray during fear, safety or wartime
"And when you are among them and arrange their prayers for them, let only a party of them stand with you (to worship) and
let them take their arms. Then, when they have performed their prostrations, let them fall to the rear and let another party
come to pray with you, and let them take their precautions and arms. They who disbelieve long for you to neglect your arms
and your baggage, that they may attack. It is no sin for you to lay aside your arms, if rain impedes you or if you are sick. But
take your precautions. Lo! Allah prepares for the disbelievers shameful punishment. When you have performed your prayer,
remember Allah, standing, sitting and reclining. And when you are in safety, observe your prayer properly. Prayer at fixed
hours has been enjoined on the believers" (an-Nisa' 102-103).
PRESCRIBED PERIODS:
2:226 - For those who take an oath for abstention from their wives a waiting for four months is
ordained; if then they return Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful.
2:228 - Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods nor is it lawful
for them to hide what Allah hath created in their wombs if they have faith in Allah and the Last
Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that period if they wish for
reconciliation. And women shall have rights similar to the rights against them according to
