Definition
Acts the Sharī‘ah neither commands nor forbids. The default in worldly affairs is mubāḥ until evidence indicates otherwise.
Pronunciation: mu-BĀḤ
Practical Application
Even mubāḥ acts can become rewarded acts of worship by intention — eating to gain strength for worship, sleeping to rise for tahajjud, working to support family.
