•• ► CLIPPING NAILS, BROOMING THE HOUSE AFTER MAGHRIB
One may clip their nails, broom the house or the whole town, and do whatever chores they need to do, at any time of the day or night! ‘People’ may say a lot of things, but only what Allah and His Messenger (sallAllahu 'alyhi wasallam) have guided towards, is the Absolute Truth!
No nail, and no broom, and no one else has any power or strength to bring any good or harm upon us. All Power is Absolutely vested in the One and Only, All Mighty and All Powerful Lord of the Universe.
Allah says in the Glorious Quran:
►"If Allah should aid you, no one can overcome you; but if He should forsake you, who is there that can aid you after Him? And upon Allah let the believers rely." (3:160)
►"That is only Satan who frightens [you] of his supporters. So fear them not, but fear Me, if you are [indeed] believers." (3:175)
►"And do not invoke besides Allah that which neither benefits you nor harms you, for if you did, then indeed you would be of the wrongdoers. And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him; and if He intends for you good, then there is no repeller of His bounty. He causes it to reach whom He wills of His servants. And He is the Forgiving, the Merciful. (10:106-107)
To fear that anyone or anything can bring upon us some harm or benefit is a manifestation of the heinous sin of shirk, and the believers must stay far away from anything that even has a connotation of this heinous and unforgiveable crime of ‘shirk’!
