[2:20 - 3:36]

“Tawassul differs from istishfā‘ (requesting Shafā‘ah) because the mustashfi‘ requests Shafā‘ah, and if Shafā‘ah is sought from the creation, that means he is seeking it from other than Allāh.

As for the mutawassil (the one seeking tawassul) -based on common day usage- he is asking Allāh, but doing so by means of someone else. So istishfā‘ is asking other than Allāh, whereas waseelah is asking Allāh by means of someone else; through the sanctity (hurmah) or standing (jaah) of that individual.

And this type of Tawassul; i.e. by means of someone's person, standing, or sanctity, is not permissible - because it is:
- transgression in du‘ā,
- an act of innovation,
- and something which leads to Shirk.

As for requesting Shafā‘ah from the creation -those of whom are incapable of making du‘ā- i.e. those who are dead, absent, etc., this is making du‘a to other than Allāh, which is major Shirk!

I advise you'll to get involved also. It's free of charge and you can do it from the comfort of your own home inshaallaah.

The correct answer is that her period HASN'T ended yet. There are two signs which show that a woman's period has ended:

1) the menstruation blood stops
2) a white discharge exits from her private part

If the white discharge appears or the menstrual blood stops, her period has ended. If she is on her period and while she is bleeding, a brown or yellow discharge exits from her private part, and then the blood stops but the brown or yellow discharge doesn't stop, she is still on her period as the brown or yellow discharge exited from her while she was still bleeding from menstruation blood.

If however she had no brown or yellow discharge while she was on her period, and then her period blood stopped, she is to have a bath and cleanse herself ready to pray and fast again. If a brown or yellow discharge exits from her private part AFTER she had a bath (ghusl) to cleanse herself to pray again, this brown or yellow discharge isn't given consideration and it's not considered as her being on her period anymore.

Allaah knows best.

Firstly, may Allaah reward and bless all of you that participated in the poll. Secondly, as there were people who did get the wrong answer, you're strongly advised to learn the rulings related to menstruation as you may be praying when you're not supposed to be, or not praying when you're supposed to be.

Why The Chains Of Narration?

عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ لَمْ يَكُونُوا يَسْأَلُونَ عَنِ الإِسْنَادِ، فَلَمَّا وَقَعَتِ الْفِتْنَةُ قَالُوا سَمُّوا لَنَا رِجَالَكُمْ فَيُنْظَرُ إِلَى أَهْلِ السُّنَّةِ فَيُؤْخَذُ حَدِيثُهُمْ وَيُنْظَرُ إِلَى أَهْلِ الْبِدَعِ فَلاَ يُؤْخَذُ حَدِيثُهُمْ.

On authority of (Muhammad) Ibn Sireen, may Allaah have mercy upon him, that he said:

"They would not ask about the chains of narration, and when the fitnah occurred, they said: 'name for us your men.' So the people of the Sunnah would be regarded, and their Hadeeth were taken, and the people of innovation would be regarded, and their Hadeeth were not taken."

[Introduction Of Saheeh Muslim, No. 27]

It is reported that 'Abdullaah Ibn Mubaarak, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said:

الإِسْنَادُ مِنَ الدِّينِ وَلَوْلاَ الإِسْنَادُ لَقَالَ مَنْ شَاءَ مَا شَاءَ.

"The chains of narration are from the religion, and if it wasn't for the chains of narration then whoever could say whatever they wished."

[Introduction Of Saheeh Muslim, No. 32]

عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْعِلْمَ دِينٌ فَانْظُرُوا عَمَّنْ تَأْخُذُونَ دِينَكُمْ.

Muhammad Ibn Sireen, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said:

"Indeed this knowledge is religion, so look to whom you take your religion from."

Do Not Decorate Yourself With Knowledge!

It is reported that Habeeb Ibn 'Ubayd – may Allaah have mercy upon him – said:

"Learn knowledge, understand it and benefit from it (live by it); and do not study it in order to decorate yourself with it, for if you live long you will likely see a time when knowledge will be used for beautification like a man beautifies himself with his garments."

[Ibnul-Mubaarak, Az-Zuhd War-Raqaaʾiq, No 1056]
