Sex matters, and at MuslimMatters.org, want to talk about it. 
There are many evidences that clearly demonstrate Islam’s realistic and pragmatic view of human sexuality. Sexuality, like all human emotions, is a natural instinct that should be satisfied in a permissible manner. The emotion itself is not evil or filthy; abusing it and trying to satisfy it outside of the permissible bounds of marriage is evil and filthy." –Dr. Yasir QadhiJoin Dr. Yasir Qadhi, Imam Omar Suleiman, Shaykh Yahya Ibrahim, Shaykh Yaser Birjas and other writers, scholars, and Muslim leaders in this critical MuslimMatters collection. In it, we discuss same-sex attraction, sex addiction, adultery, secret second marriage, and issues facing the Muslim community. Excerpts from the book:"Many women are likely to be blamed for not keeping their husbands happy, even at times by their own families. This approach, of course, is completely devoid of any Islamic precedent or Prophetic tradition. The Prophet ﷺ never chastised the spouse of an adulterer for not doing enough to stop them from cheating." - Shaykh Omar Suleiman"Sex addiction festers in darkness. People can go about their “normal” everyday lives on the surface but in the claws of compulsion leaves them surrendering to the lure of desire. Coupled by the deep rooted belief that they are doomed destined for hell and they can’t be cured/ saved, this is of course only a trap from Shaytan..." - Abeda Ahmed "The entire concept of “proof of virginity” is alien to the Deen and completely absent in the Shari’ah. The only Islamically acceptable way of knowing whether someone has committed Zina (fornication) is by confession, or having been caught fornicating by the required four witnesses, making the whole idea of physiological “proof” redundant." - Zainab bint Younis "Asking for a ‘virginity test’ is something new in the Muslim society. It’s hard to find anything regarding this issue in such a straight forward manner in classical works of fiqh, for such a request implies suspicion in the chastity of the woman and hence falls under ‘Qadhf‘ – meaning false accusation. This request is not only a violation to her body, but also to her innocence and to her honor." - Sh. Yaser Birjas "Contracting secret/temporary marriages reduces marriage to sexual relations in an ugly sort of rental arrangement, that is profoundly demeaning, especially to women." - Dr. Shaykh Mohammad Akram Nadwi

Angels in Your Presence

To delegitimize the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم is to call into question the entire message. During his time, the Makkans called him 
a poet, a magician, and a madman, among other names. Today, he is insulted with other labels. The question of whether or not he sacrificed his principles in the pursuit of conveying his message successfully is one that requires an in-depth look

“My eyes have never seen anything better than you. No woman has ever given birth to anyone as beautiful as you. You were created free from all flaws. As if you were created exactly as you wished. – Hassan Ibn Thabit (RA) Allah has never sent a Prophet except that Prophet had a beautiful face and a beautiful voice. In the case of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as Ali (RA) said, “I’ve never seen anything like him, before him or after him”. However, as stunning as the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) appearance was, his character was even more strikingly beautiful. Do you ever wonder what it would be like to be in the presence of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, as his companions were? What would it be like to see him, to host him in your home, pray behind him, and have him as a teacher and friend? Through 30 beautifully detailed chapters with narrations from companions, take a journey from only knowing about him to knowing him and loving him and feel what it was like to be a companion of his in this life and strive to be companions of his in the next.

As our community encounters death at an increasing rate, how do we honor those who have left us beyond the Janazah? How can the families of our deceased brothers and sisters cope and grow, while staying connected to their loved ones? This book is meant to provide guidance spiritually to those who are grieving, while also covering the rulings associated with death and mourning for practical purposes. We pray that this will offer clarity and comfort to those who need it most in these difficult times.

Ali ibn Abi Talib said: 'The life of this world is quicklydeparting and the life of the hereafter is quickly approaching and each one ofthem has its children. So be children of the hereafter, not children of thisworld. For today there are deeds without reckoning, but tomorrow there will bereckoning without deeds. &nbsp; In this life even an atoms' worth of good is accepted if itis done with sincerity. In the hereafter, the whole world in gold will do youno good. &nbsp; In every moment of the day of Judgment, from the moment yourise from their grave to when you take your place in the assembly. From whenyou are brought forth to be held accountable by your Lord, to when you aretaken to the scale for the scrolls to be weighed, from when you prepare tocross the bridge to your anticipated arrival at the gates of&nbsp; Paradise. There are good deeds that Youhave sent forth that will come to your aid. Deeds that will take you by yourhand and testify on your behalf, that will settle your feet and shade you fromthe scorching heat. That will light your way in the darkness and guide you tothe abode of eternal delight. &nbsp; So do not ask your Lord when the day of Judgment will be,but ask yourself what deeds have you prepared for that day.&nbsp;
