فتاوى الصيام والزكاة والتراويح

Ramadan produces the same questions every year, and they are almost always specific. Not "what invalidates a fast" but "I used an inhaler at noon — do I make the day up?" Not "who pays Zakat" but "my savings crossed the nisab four months ago; what do I owe and when?" Not "how many rak'ah is Taraweeh" but "the imam prayed twenty and I left after eight — was that wrong?"

This booklet answers questions of that kind, because that is how it was assembled. Each ruling in it was issued individually in response to somebody who asked.

Fasting

The conditions that make fasting obligatory, and who is excused. What breaks the fast and what does not — the area where most doubt lives. Valid excuses, making up missed days, and the fidyah where making up is not possible. The etiquettes of the fasting person, and the mistakes repeated each year out of habit rather than knowledge.

Zakat

Who is liable, on which categories of wealth, and at what threshold. When the year is counted from and how the amount is worked out. Who may receive it and who may not. The rulings on Zakat al-Fitr — its amount, its timing, and the consequence of paying it late.

Taraweeh

The standing of the night prayer in Ramadan, its number of units, and the latitude the Sunnah allows in that. Praying behind the imam, completing with him, and the ruling on leaving early. Witr, qunoot, and the recitation of the Qur'an across the month.

Why the Size Suits the Subject

It is small enough to keep in a bag through Ramadan and consult when something happens, which is exactly when a ruling is needed. Masajid and Islamic schools commonly buy it in quantity to distribute before the month begins.

Alhamdulila this is the first book I read on this topic [when I became Muslim], and I must admit it answered most of the questions I had in mind. First part of the book is 'regular style' giving good details on the various topics related to Ramadan, while the 2nd part consist of 'Question-Answer style', and I identified myself to many of the questions. Once again, a very good price/content ratio.
