I have three questions
1. Does dry cleaning of clothes make them paak (pure)
as no water is used here.
Answer:
Water is not necessary to make clothes pure and clean (paak).
Even stones can be used to scratch out impurity to make your garment pure and
clean clean.
2. Why is one thing in one school of thought (Shafaee, Hanafi and others) allowed
and the same thing in the other strictly prohibited. How can one thing be
correct in one and wrong in the other?. Can we follow
one thing from Shafaee and other thing from Hanafi and another from any other 2
schools of thoughts or we should follow all the rules of one only school?
Answer: All schools
of thoughts are based on research in the Qur'an and Sunnah. A hadith says that
a researcher or a judge gets double reward, if his decision/conclusion is
correct/right. He gets one reward, if his decision is not right. Only Allah
knows the correct decision or the answer. Man only tries to find it. There is
no other way to know the truth.
If a person has enough knowledge and does his own
research, he is free to adopt his finding; but, a person who does not have
enough knowledge to pursue the case in depth, has no other choice except
to follow a researcher or judge upon whom he has confidence. Without knowledge,
he should not start jumping from one school to another.
3. Does showing a wrong work experience certificate in your bio-data for getting
a job (e.g. You have about one year work experience
and you make a certificate of work experience of 5 years) make the salary of
that job haram.
Answer:
If you have only one year's experience, you must show only one
year's experience. By falsely showing five years, you are committing three
sins: 1. Forgery of your certificate, 2. You have
deceived an innocent employer, 3. You have deprived a deserving candidate of
his right of the job- it is an injustice caused by you.
Your salary, obtained because of these three
sins, is thus naturally haram for you. It is like stealing other's
salary or property.
Allah knows the best.
