Child born out of wedlock

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2015-04-29 15:24

Q: I'm hoping you can shed some light on this matter, nonetheless I have a daughter out of wedlock. Her father is Christian. I withheld visitation because I know I've committed a major sin. I've repented and I'm still doing it, anyway is it permissible for him to see and be an active role in her life? I don't know if there's anything I can do because he took me to childrens court. So she goes to him every Sunday. He feeds her food out of their house and they are pork eaters even though I send her lunch and snacks with. He even gives her food out of other Christian peoples house. I once saw his cousin's husband kissing her on her mouth. Any advice will be appreciated.

Acknowledging one's mistake

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2015-04-29 15:18

Q: I'm married Alhamdulillah. When my husband lectures me via a message, of course I don't argue back. Then do I just not reply to him? Wouldn't that sound like I'm ignoring him even though I'm reading all the messages. Its my fault I accept. But when I say something it sounds like I'm arguing. So when my husband is lecturing me via a message then do I just not reply or what should I say?

Putting on one's ihraam before passing the miqaat

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2015-04-29 09:29

Q: My friend is travelling for Umrah next week. He will land to Jeddah, from there he will travel to Makkah without making Ihraam and making Niyyat of Umrah. From the hotel after checking in he will go to Masjid-e-Ayesha with the niyyat of umrah and from there he will wear ihraam and will perform Umrah. Is it ok or is it mandatory that he has to make the niyyat from Jeddah?

Tahiyyatul musjid

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2015-04-29 09:22

Q: In the English translation of Behishti Zewar, Heavenly Ornaments, it says under 'The time of Salaat', 'Rules Related to the Times of Salaat', that: "Once dawn breaks and fajr time enters, then apart from the two rakaats sunnah and two rakaats fard of fajr salaat, it is makruh to offer any other nafl salaat. However, it is permissible to offer any qada salaat and to make sajdah-e-tilaawat." (1) Does this mean that if I happen to perform the two rakaats sunnah at home, it is makruh to perform Tahiyyatul musjid when entering the Musjid? (2) Does this also mean that if I do not perform the two rakaats sunnah at home, it is makruh to perform the two rakaats sunnah with the multiple intention of it being Tahiyyatul musjid as well?

Q: I received accreditation for Hajj 2015 Alhamdulillah. Am I now considered called by that special calling from Allah Most High (Hujja)?

Husband singing about the wife

Submitted by admin on Tue, 2015-04-28 16:19

Q: Singing is haraam but my husband sings about me. Says good things about me when he's singing. But when he is singing he sings in a naat tune or nazam tune. He just makes up words. He doesn't copy any singer. Is that okay or still haraam?

Drinks which contain traces of alcohol

Submitted by admin on Tue, 2015-04-28 16:15

Q: Minute alcohol is present in some drinks like 0.52% or something, something that will not intoxicate, no matter how much is drunk. Then if it doesn't intoxicate then what is the issue with it? I ask inquisitively, thank you. Of course I don't support alcohol being used at all, but the end product is not our doing.

Delaying the Salaah till the last time

Submitted by admin on Tue, 2015-04-28 16:13

1. I prayed Fajr at about 6:02 and it expires on the calendar at about 6:06, but before I prayed I looked outside and at first I noticed it was light and at the distance I seen in the clouds a reddish smudge, like at the time of Maghrib. Can Fajr expire before the calendar time or is it 100% accurate?

2. I prayed Fajr Qada in-case and at my last rak'ah in tashahhud I didn't have khushoo as I needed to relieve myself, does this affect the validity of my prayer? I leant on one side to hold it and before tasleem I moved back.
