You gave a fatwa that the vaccine is haraam, I travel a lot in my business.

Question

You gave a fatwa that the vaccine is haraam, I travel a lot in my business. Please advise what do I do? Because without taking the vaccine I will not be allowed to travel.

Answer

Our obligation is to state the law of the Shariah whether people are able to act accordingly or not. If all people are addicted to liquor for example, we still have to proclaim liquor haraam regardless of the addiction. Almost all Muslims are involved in insurance and in haraam pictography. Despite this we have the obligation of proclaiming the truth of the Deen even if people refuse to accept or even if they are genuinely unable to submit.

The same applies to vaccination. Vaccination is haraam. It is now left to the individual to decide what he has to do. People will react and act in terms of their different levels of Imaan and Taqwa. We cannot advise you what exactly to do. It is left for you to decide.

If circumstances compel you to submit to vaccination, remember two grave harms: (1) The sin of committing haraam. (2) The damage and disease to your body. As far as No.1 is concerned, Allah Ta'ala forgives when Taubah is made and He understands whether the compelling circumstances are valid or not.

As far as No.2 is concerned, you may suffer life-long disease, especially cancer. For this there is no cure.

LONDON, April 12, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) - In official documents released by the U.K. government, models for the planned "third wave" of COVID-19 predicted that any hospitalizations and deaths would be "dominated" by people who had already been vaccinated.

On March 31, the U.K. Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Modelling, Operational subgroup (SPI-M-O), released the latest document containing modelling predictions about the effect that the gradual easing of restrictions would have on the spread of infection, and subsequent hospitalizations and deaths. The data are taken from forecasts provided by Warwick University, Imperial College London, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

A surprising statement was contained in the document, as the various institutions predicted the impact of a "third wave" of the virus upon the country's health service, and the result on the population:

"The resurgence in both hospitalizations and deaths is dominated by those that have received two doses of the vaccine, comprising around percent and 70 percent of the wave respectively. This can be attributed to the high levels of uptake in the most at-risk age groups, such that immunisation failures account for more serious illness than unvaccinated individuals."

A subsequent paragraph reaffirmed this admission, noting that in the predicted third wave, "most deaths and admissions in a post-Roadmap resurgence are in people who have received two vaccine doses."………… Sharing SPI-M-O's document on Twitter, Joel Smalley of the antilockdown research group HART commented: "In their forecast, the key metrics of hospitalisations and deaths are dominated (60 percent-70 percent) by those who are fully vaccinated. Yeah, no typo. Because vaccine failure in the most at-risk where uptake is high will be more serious than susceptibility of the lowerrisk unvaccinated."…

Although the worrying statement amount the majority of deaths found among the injected populace comes as part of modelling, SPI-M-O's statement reflects the growing discussion on the significant amount of adverse effects and deaths after COVID-19 injections.

In a strongly worded letter to the British Medical Journal (BMJ), a London-based consultant warned about the "unprecedented" levels of sickness among health care staff after the injection. In addition to mentioning the high levels of staff falling sick, Dr. K. Polyakova mentioned how some were developing "neurological symptoms which is having a huge impact on the health service function. Even the young and healthy are off for days, some for weeks, and some requiring medical treatment. Whole teams are being taken out as they went to get vaccinated together." "What is to say that there are no longitudinal adverse effects that we may face that may put the entire health sector at risk?" she asked. Her warning is seemingly being proved increasingly and sadly true, as disproportionately numerous reports of deaths after injections are quietly amassing.

According to a narration recorded in Saheeh Muslim, the great Sahaabi and military general who had conquered vast swathes of lands for the Ummah, Hadhrat Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqaas (radhiyallahu anhu), had abandoned society and taken to herding camels and sheep in isolation. His son came one day to deliver some Naseehat to his father and to criticize him for his seclusion.

Hadhrat Sa'd ibn Abi- Waqqaas (radhiyallahu anhu) reacted with a punch to his chest. First, he sought refuge with Allah Ta'ala. Then, after allowing his son to say his piece, he delivered a blow to his son's chest, before proceeding to tell him to shut up. Finally, he finished him off with the following statement of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam):

"Indeed, Allah loves the servant who has Taqwa, is rich (in the soul), and is hidden (from the people)."

In the commentary of this Hadith in Mirqaatul- Mafaateeh, it states:

"Indeed, Allah loves the servant who has Taqwa. That is, the one who steers clear of the Haraam and Doubtful matters, and he (even) refrains from (much of) what is desirable (to the nafs), and permissible.

(As for) "Richness": An-Nawawi (Rahmatullah alayh) said: "The intent of richness is richness of the soul. This is the richness that is desired due to his (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) saying: "(True) Richness is richness of the soul."…

(As for) "Hidden": (It refers to) The unknown person who is dedicated to the worship of his Rabb and occupied in matters related to (the perfection of) his soul."
