Nottingham Woman Launches ‘Halal Sex Shop’ for Muslim Couples

Traditional Muslims have always struggled with having a healthy dialogue around halal sexual relations in Islam.

While the Muslim world is widely diverse, Muslim cultural critics and scholars have often noted a squeamish resistance to talk about sex, especially in the public sphere.

The Prophet (PBUH) said, “Faith (Belief) consists of more than sixty branches (i.e. parts). And Hayaa (self-respect, modesty, bashfulness, and scruple, etc.) is a part of faith.” (Bukhari)

The ideals of modesty have often prevented married couples to seek guidance, advice, and resources to enhance their individual sex lives.

Breaking this taboo, a British Muslim woman has launched the first online love/sex shop. This shop caters to the Islamic ideals of the Muslim community. 

“As a couple, you can get everything you need to experiment, explore and develop your physical and spiritual relationship. This is in a halal (allowed) environment without any prohibited products,” 40-year-old Nottingham woman Amal Abbas told Nottingham Post.

The new website comes online on June 26 at Habebee.co.uk.

The store aligns to the principles of Islam in every aspect, revolutionizing the mindset around sexual relationships in marriage. 

The shop avoid pornographic images and works to create shameless dialogue around sexuality. 

New Trend

There are a few other online sex shops for Muslim couples that have surfaced online.

Halalbedroom.com is an online store that sells massage oils, candles, and body paints to their Muslim customer base.

They allow their clients to private shop online and they discreetly ship their products to individuals around the world. 

“I was astonished when I heard of this online shop. I’ve never seen it done in the Muslim community. I am thankful that we are moving the taboo around sexuality in Islam,” Yasmin Abdul Warith told AboutIslam.net.

Sheikh Faisal Mawlawi, Deputy Chairman of the European Council for Fatwa and Research, tackled the issue of sex education in an earlier fatwa on AboutIslam.net.

“Sex education means informing a young man and woman about how to satisfy sexual desires innate in them according to the laws established by Almighty Allah,” he said.

“It is natural that such kind of education must exist in the Muslim societies since it aims, originally, at teaching a Muslim the morals of Islam and its rulings,” he adds.

“Muslim Jurists were keen on disseminating such form of useful knowledge to the extent that they had a common dictum that reads: ‘Shyness should not stand in your way to seek knowledge about (sensitive) matters of religion.’”

List of Times and Places Where Dua is Accepted

A short reminder regarding the recommended times of dua . And I think what you need to know here is that the recommended times of dua or recommended things that can cause your dua to be accepted, can be divided into two sort of large groups: Am I Good Enough to Make Dua for Myself? Situations where your dua is accepted. Times where your dua is accepted So I’m going to very briefly mention them one after the other as much as possible. As for situations where your dua has been accepted: – The person who has been wronged or oppressed . – A person who finds themselves in severe difficulty after a calamity has struck. – The person who is traveling. – Someone who is fasting. – The one who is reciting the Quran or has just recited the Quran – Someone who is performing Hajj or Umrah or jihad. – The one who is making dua for someone in their absence . Because we know that when you make dua for someone in his absence an angel says: “ Ameen and to you”. – A person...

Ghuraba (The Strangers): Nasheed with English Subtitles

Islam began as something strange, and it shall return to being something strange, so give glad tidings the strangers. (Sahih Muslim 145) This famous nasheed has many versions; this one is from Muhammad al-Salman and has the subtitles in English embedded. [We are] strangers and we do not bow the foreheads to anyone besides Allah  […] Transliteration to help in the pronounciation:  Ghurabaa’ wa li ghairillaahi laa nahnil jibaa Aisha Stacey  wrote in an article for Aboutislam.net : “I think that many of you would agree that being Muslim in the 21st century makes you well acquainted with being strange. It might even be a metaphor for random, as in you have been randomly selected. […] many converts to Islam will tell you about feeling as if they were strangers, before finding Islam. They will speak of feeling that they belonged somewhere else that their lives were just slightly off center. They often speak about a vague sense of knowing they were not like everyone else...

Taqwa – Living the Main Purpose of Ramadan

Taqwa is a major purpose for the month of Ramadan. The people of taqwa are those who do the things that they are commanded and avoid the things which Allah has made prohibitive. And evidently, to reach a state of taqwa requires vigilance, it requires patience and sincerity. The verse is pertaining to fasting I found in a single set of verses in chapter 2 starting at verse 183: O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous. ( 2:183 ) A Collective Act of Worship Allah is telling us that fasting has been made obligatory and then Allah tells us that just as it was prescribed for those before us. We often get asked this question in Ramadan, “how’s the fast going for us?” And if we gave ourselves a moment to think about it, we see that Allah Most High has made the fast inside the month of Ramadan easy for us because we know that there is a collective spirit to fasting; we know that we’re not alone in this ...
