[Saheeh Bukhaari, Volume 4, Book 56, Number 667] In the name of Allah, the Most-Merciful, the All-Compassionate "May the Peace and Blessings of Allah be Upon You" Praise be to Allaah, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu Ruling - Is it Allowed to Sleep on Stomach ? Why is it forbidden to sleep on ones Belly? Is it forbidden for both men and women?
The reason for this is that it was forbidden by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), who left no good thing but he told us about it and left no evil thing but he warned us against it. Yaeesh ibn Tihfah al-Ghifaari reported that his father said: I stayed as a guest with the Messenger of Allaah (pbuh) with those of the poor whom he hosted. The Messenger of Allaah (pbuh) came out in the night to check up on his guests, and saw me lying on my stomach. He prodded me with his foot and said, "Do not lie in this manner, for it is a way of lying that Allaah hates. According to another report, the Prophet (pbuh) prodded him with his foot and woke him up, and said, Do not lie like this, for this is how the people of Hell lie. (Reported by Ahmad, al-Fath al-Rabbaani, 14/244-245; by al-Tirmidhi, no. 2798, Shaakir edn.; and by Abu Dawood, al-Sunan, Kitaab al-Adab, no. 5040, al-Daaas edn. Also reported in Saheeh al-Jaami, 2270-2271) This is a general prohibition that applies to both males and females, because the basic principle is that rulings apply to both sexes, except in cases where it is indicated that there is a differentiation between the two. And Allaah knows best. Sleeping on ones stomach when there is a legitimate reason my question is regarding a posting i saw in your website that it is preffered for a Muslim to sleep on his right side and not on his stomach. Is that true? and what if a person due to problems with his back can't sleep except on his stomach? If you have no choice but to sleep on your back, there is nothing wrong with doing so, so long as you are keen to follow the Sunnah and the only reason you cannot put this particular aspect of it into practice is your illness. And Allaah knows best http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/1409/stomach Side Effecting of Sleeping on your Stomach from Medical Point. Sleeping on your stomach forces your lower back into extension, and this jams your facets and shortens your muscles. It also puts unnecssary strain on your neck as pillows tend to be quite a bit higher than the mattress. The neck gets forced into extension even more so than the lower back, which could leave you with a crimp in your neck when you wake up in the morning. To avoid these problems, we recommend sleeping on your side with appropriate support, or sleeping on your back with minimal pillow height. http://www.chiropractors-north-america.com/sleeping-on-your-stomach.htm Sleeping on your stomach twists the neck, distorts the pelvis and results in excessive strain on the joints, muscles and nerves of your neck and lower spine. http://www.wnbc.com/bottomline/10935855/detail.html Sleeping on your stomach also puts a strain on your back as well as your jaw and neck. http://sleepdisorders.about.com/od/gettingtosleep/fr/posturepillow.htm Salaam Walekum Adil Khan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ To subscribe send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://islammyreligion.wordpress.com Yahoo!
