e-Muqaddasah has been established in order to make the preservation of sacred literature a reality, to preserve their sanctity and to protect them from any disrespect. With the help of various people (for example, scholars of Islam, Imams, Masjid committees, businesspeople, shop owners, etc.), boxes and sacks for the preservation of sacred literature have been placed at various locations, which are then buried, placed in the sea or preserved, according to the principles of the Shari’ah and organisation.

Some Sunnahs and etiquettes of sitting

O devotees of the Prophet! Let us now have the honour of listening to some Sunnahs and etiquettes of sitting, from the book of Maktaba-tul-Madinah ‘Sunnatayn aur Adaab’:

   ۔1It is Sunnah to sit with the buttocks on the ground, with the knees raised whilst wrapping both arms around them and clasping the hands together (however, it is better to place a cloth, etc. on the knees when sitting like this). (Mirat-ul-Manajeeh, vol. 6, p. 378 Summarised)

   ۔2Sitting with the legs crossed is also established from the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

   ۔3One should not sit in a place where there is both, sunlight and shade, for the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: If one of you is sitting in the shade, and the shade moves away from him, such that he is partly in the sunlight and partly in the shade, then he should get up from there.

(Abu Dawood, vol. 4, p. 338, Hadees 4821)
