AL-HIJAAMAH (CUPPING),WHAT ISLAM SAYS ABOUT IT,ITS BENEFITS & THE TIMES WHEN IT SHOULD BE DONE.

Hijaamah comes from the root al-hajm, which means “sucking”, and is used of the action of draining the breast when an infant is suckled. Al-hajjaam is the name given to the cupper, and hijaamah is the name given to this profession. Al-mihjam is the name given to the tool in which blood is collected, or to the knife used by the cupper.

In fiqh terminology the word hijaamah is applied by some scholars to the extraction of blood from the nape of the neck by means of cupping after making an incision with the lancet. Al-Zarqaani stated that cupping is not limited to the nape of the neck, rather it may be done on any part of the body. This was also the view of al-Khattaabi.

In conclusion, hijaam refers to the extraction of blood…

“Jabir Ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allâah be pleased with him) said, “ The Messenger of Allâah(peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated to Allâah in this Masjid (Masjid Al-Fath) on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. His dua was answered on Wednesday between the prayers of Dhuhr and Asr. Jabir(may Allâah be pleased with him)said,” There wasn’t anything that was crucially important for me to have solved, except I called on Allâah during that hour of the day between Dhuhr and Asr knowing He would answer.”

Various approaches are implied by the Muslims to gain the most out of the nights which have been declared to be auspicious. Among these are the last 10 (odd) nights of Ramadhān which are generally thought to contain Laylah al Qadr.

Shaikh Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani mentioned that these last nights of Ramadhān are meant for the servant to foster a strong relationship with his Master (Allah). Hence one should strive to worship Allah Ta’ālā by:

1. Reciting Qur’an in abundance, since this is the month of Qur’an.

2. Making lots of Du’aa – asking Allah for the bounties of this world and the hereafter.

Numerous supplications from Qur’an and Hadith have been nicely compiled in Munajāt e Maqbool (1) by Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi which may be read during these nights.

3. Offering Nafl (voluntary) Salah – whereby:

Maulwi Anwar Shah Sahib Kashmiri states the Qur`an was (astaghfirullah) distorted when he writes in Faydh al-Bari:
قوله وقال ابن عباس…الخ واعلم أن في التحريف ثلاثة مذاهب ذهب جماعة إلى أن التحريف في الكتب السماوية قد وقع بكل نحو في اللفظ والمعنى جميعا وهو الذي مال إليه ابن حزم وذهب جماعة إلى أن التحريف قليل ولعل الحافظ ابن تيمية جنح إليه وذهب جماعة إلى إنكار التحريف اللفظي رأسا فالتحريف عندهم كله معنوي قلت يلزم على هذا المذهب أن يكون القرآن أيضا محرفا فإن التحريف المعنوي غير قليل فيه أيضا والذي تحقق عندي أن التحريف فيها لفظي أيضا أما إنه عن عمد منهم أو لمغلطة فالله تعالى أعلم به
and in another nuskha:

قولہ: [ و قال ابن عباس ] الخ ، و اعلم أن فی التحریف ثلاثۃ مذاھب: ذھب جماعۃ

الی أن التحریف فی الکتب السماویۃ قد وقع بکل نحو فی اللفظ و المعنی جمیعاً ، و

This is an excerpt from one of Tariq Masood’s speeches. Its translated more or less meaning.

There are certain things that cannot be tolerated by children. If your child has any shortcoming, don’t go around singing to people about it. When child finds out that my parent is speaking ill about me to everyone. This is an opportunity for the devil to incite the child to rebel. The issues of home should be dealt at home not public. If you have someone close or confidant who will preserve everyone’s honor, you can confide in them that my child is not listening to me. But if you go around telling everyone that my child doesn’t listen to me, is disobedient etc. When children find out the devil incites them what’s the point of being obedient now given that your own parents have humiliated you?

The next mistake that parents do is…
