Some issues relating to the video<br />
<br />
(1) Concerning the question about where Allaah is, her answer was only samaa`. Translation should be 'above the heavens' not 'in the heaven' ... Istiwaa denotes rising, not risiding within. So Ahlus-Sunnah believe that Allaah Ta'aala is fawqas-Samaa, above the heavens. As Ibn Mas'ood radhiyAllaahu 'anhu is reported to have said:<br />
<br />
'then He rose over His Throne', - 'the Throne is over the water, and Allaah is above (fawqa) the Throne, and He knows what you are upon.' - 'Khalq Af'aal al-Ebaad' of Imaam Bukhaaree (rahimahullaah).Translation should be 'Above the heavens' not 'in the Heavens'<br />
<br />
''Then He Istawâ (rose over) towards the heaven and made them seven heavens and He is the All-Knower of everything.'' [2:29]<br />
<br />
(2) The answer to the question about the Prophet's birthday:we know that the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) were the people who loved the Prophet most. Was it reported that Abu Bakr, who was the closest of people to him and the one who loved him the most, celebrated the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?<br />
<br />
Was it reported that 'Umar, who ruled for twelve years, or 'Uthmaan, did this?<br />
<br />
Was it reported that 'Ali, his relative and foster son, did this?<br />
<br />
Was it reported that any of the Sahaabah did this?<br />
<br />
No, by Allaah! Is it because they were not aware of its importance, or did they not truly love the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? No one would say such a thing except one who has gone astray and is leading others astray.Did any of the imaams -- Abu Haneefah, Maalik, al-Shaafi'i, Ahmad, al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Seereen -- do this or command others to do it or say that it was good? By Allaah, no! It was not even mentioned during the first and best three centuries.If you are saying: ''It is good, what is wrong with it? its not bid'ah I only do it because I love the Prophet and it takes me closer to him in love!'' then you must know that every little thing we can do to come closer in love to our beloved Prophet he would have told us to do it!So please, love the Prophet by obeying him, not disobeying him.<br />
<br />
(3) Rosary Beads (Tasbeeh, misba7aha) - Some of the opinions of the scholars say it is a bidaa, some say its better to use your fingers as that is from the sunnah, and some say you can use them if you can not count. Allahu Alim<br />
<br />
(4) The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: The best of the women of Paradise are Khadeejah bint Khuwaylid, Faatimah bint Muhammad, Aasiyah bint Mazaahim the wife of Pharaoh, and Maryam bint Imraan (may Allaah be pleased with them.( [Narrated by Ahmad, 2663. Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaamia, 1135]<br />
<br />
It was also narrated from Anas that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Sufficient for you among the women of the world are Maryam the daughter of Imraan. Khadeejah bint Khuwaylid, Faatimah bint Muhammad and Aasiyah the wife of Pharaoh. [Narrated and classed as saheeh by al-Tirmidhi, 3878]<br />
