Some People Are Just Born Left-Handed, What Do They Do?  

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Question:

Some people are just born left-handed, what do they do?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,

It is in of itself superior to use the right hand for all noble matters, for this was the way of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Sayyida A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said that the he (Allah bless him and give him peace) liked to use the right in all matters.

In matters requiring dexterity, such as writing, there is no harm in a left-hander using their left hand. However, one should avoid eating with the left hand, because it is a specific sunna, and dignified conduct, to do so with the right hand.

And Allah alone gives success.

Faraz Rabbani.

Now What?

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Knowledge is only through study."

Picking up a book or reading an article and trying to figure things out on our own is no substitute for learning from someone who has a direct link to our living tradition.
