So yes... when I hear "makruh" I think "Yay, not haram; we can do it!"
What does makruh really mean though?

I think Revert posted about two different kinds of makruh.


Makruh is something which is not forbidden but also "not recommended." It is not considered a sin, but it is Islamically advised that we avoid the activity for our own sakes.
