Miscellaneous Fatwas

Modern medicine did not emerge in isolation; it stands on centuries of accumulated knowledge, experimentation, and ethical reflection. Contribution of Islam to Medicine illuminates a critical yet often underrepresented chapter in the global history of medical science, demonstrating how Islamic civilization shaped the foundations of medical thought and practice.
About the Book
Contribution of Islam to Medicine examines the profound role Muslim scholars played in preserving, developing, and transmitting medical knowledge from antiquity to the early modern world. Drawing upon Qur’anic principles, Prophetic teachings, and systematic scientific inquiry, the book shows how medicine in Islamic civilization evolved as both a rational science and a moral vocation.
The work highlights how Muslim physicians integrated empirical observation with ethical responsibility, viewing healing as a service to humanity and an act of devotion to God. Inspired by the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his Family), medical practice emphasized compassion, accountability, and respect for human dignity. The book traces the development of hospitals, pharmacology, surgery, anatomy, and medical education within Islamic societies, illustrating how these achievements later influenced Europe and beyond.
Rather than presenting medicine as a purely technical discipline, the book situates it within a broader worldview in which knowledge (ʿilm, meaning divinely valued knowledge) serves both individual well-being and societal benefit.

Polygamy, and the Prophet Muhammad

The question of rightful leadership after Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his Family) is among the most debated issues in Islamic history. On the Khilafah of ʿAlī over Abū Bakr presents a detailed argument, using Sunni sources, that Imam ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib (ʿa) was divinely appointed as the legitimate successor of the Prophet, and that his claim to leadership superseded that of Abū Bakr.
About the Book
On the Khilafah of ʿAlī over Abū Bakr was authored by Toyib Olawuyi and published in 2014. Subtitled A Dictionary of Ṣaḥīḥ Sunni Hadiths, it carefully examines classical hadith (prophetic tradition) texts preserved in Sunni collections. The author focuses on narrations such as hadith al-Wilāyah (the tradition of guardianship), hadith al-Tawliyah (the tradition of appointment), and hadith al-Wirāthah (the tradition of inheritance), analyzing their chains of transmission and meanings. In addition, the book addresses counter-arguments by figures such as Ibn Taymiyyah, presenting detailed responses within a methodological framework. By doing so, it highlights how Sunni sources themselves testify to Imam ʿAlī’s (ʿa) precedence in succession.

On the Khilafah of ‘Ali over Abu Bakr

"Sufism and Islam cannot be separated in the same way that higher consciousness or awakening cannot be separated from Islam. Islam is not an historical phenomenon that began 1,400 years ago. It is the timeless art of awakening by means of submission. Sufism is the heart of Islam. It is as ancient as the rise of human consciousness."2 Many scholars and jurists may join issue with the above statement. They perceive Sufism as an unacceptable distortion of Islamic beliefs and way of life. They find the rituals and practices as well as the beliefs of many Sufis repugnant to the teachings of Islam. They argue that Sufism has brought about confusion in the minds of its believers leading them away from the simplicity and purity of the glorious faith.
