Question
could you give me any reference from any Fiqh (or tareekh book) that the Holy Prophet (sallahu alahai wasallam) or his noble Khulafa-e-Rashideen (r.a) or the latter greats like Hazrat Umar Bin Abdul Aziz'forced' anyone to pray, or any other obligation of Islam which is related to the 'indivual' (and does not pertain to the whole society at least directly), it is very easy to understand about the 'collective' things like Purdah..because they effect whole society (directly) b) could u tell me the meaning of the name 'Narmeen'`
Answer
Allah Ta'ala orders Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) in the Qur'aan, 'Command (enjoin) prayer (Salaat) on your people and remain steadfast on it yourself.' (Taha Aayat132)
It is evident from the abovementioned Aayat that it was the responsibility of Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) to enforce and join the establishment of Salaat.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
