u cant make dua for a non muslim, however the only dua u can make for them is for Allah swt to giv them hidayat.

I make dua for all I know. Which includes non muslims. Whether or not it is accepted by Allah is an entirely different matter.

Not entreily sure, but I used to make a pray (dua) for a non muslim who was ill or still is ill from blood cancer. But then my mom and someone else told me not to pray for non muslims, which then I have stopped. If someone can confirm such thing that is prohibited by an hadith, or Qur'an verse it would be much appericated. :)

Yes i thought so too. Because a person is not muslim then that person should not receive the prayer of another. That's plain stupid, what God would instruct that, it's ludicrious! Some people do not know God is for all and not just muslims! :raging:
 
Huh? Is there any evidence to back that up?

If saving one life (whateva the religion) equals to saving the whole of mankind, then why isn't making duaa permissable?

Quran:"And whoever saves a life it is as though he had saved the lives of all
mankind" (5:32).
 
OK found this:

Allah Most High says:

“It is not for the Prophet and those who believe to pray for the forgiveness of idolaters even though they may be near of kin after it has become clear that they are people of hell-fire.” (Surah al-Tawba, V: 113)

However, it will be permitted to pray for the guidance of a non-Muslim when he/she is alive, hoping that he/she is guided and accepts Islam. It will also be permitted to pray for the good-health and well-being of a particular non-Muslim. (See: al-Mawsu’a al-Fiqhiyya, Kuwait)
 
Come on now. U R spoiling Islamic Identity.

We are allowed to pray for non muslims. Except in wars to pray for thier victories.

So you're not allowed to pray for a non muslims welfare?? Because that's what i'm reading. Odd, because if your believe in God you'd want to pray for all mankind regardless of religion! ;)
 
Why should a person pray for someone who believes that their Creator has partners, or for the person who rejects Him totally?

We do pray for the person's guidance, so this is the best supplication a person can make for them - however, what's the point of supplicating for the one doesn't accept that?


Allaah Almighty knows best.


Peace.

because they are your fellow human beings??
out of compassion for a blind person (the start of this thread)?
this forum uses the terms "brother/sister in humanity" - what does that mean?
not much, i guess.
 
I believe we can pray for non muslims. Just not join in their religious prayers. But no harm in praying for their well being etc.... After all God made everyone, so why not pray for our fellow humanbeings.
