Q: I am very saddened by the way the media is reacting to Islamic Shariah and people want to run away from Islamic regimes.
From a practical point of view, how are women to be treated as per Shariah law so that they get proper education and are able to practice and follow an Islamic regime.
Q: It has been 4 months since I came to Saudi Arabia on a visit visa. There is a man known to my father who has a business. He gave me a job in his business because he knew my father. Now the main thing is, is it halal for me to get this job on a visit visa? Because, I did not come here for work. And I'm working under the guise of the Saudi government. So is it halal for me to work? Or is it forbidden?
Q: I am 20 years old and live in the UK. Here we are obliged to have car insurance. Similarly, for delivering food etc. (Uber eats) we are required to have food insurance. Insurance companies don't supply that to us until we are 21, so right now, I do food delivery for Uber eats on a normal insurance. That would mean that I am not abiding by the law of the land, would that make my income haraam?
My dad is currently not working and I am paying rent for the house. Furthermore, I intend on buying another car in the next few months. If this income is haraam, when I am 21 and do the food delivery legally, but the car I use to deliver the food is from haraam money, does that make whatever I earn haraam?
If it is haraam, once I turn 21, can I repent and give the calculated amount I've earned up until I became 21, to charity? Would my income thereafter be halaal?

Q: I was legitimately claiming help with medical costs from the UK government for years. They assess whether you are eligible, by asking for details about your income and savings. Then in 2017 my father deposited some money in my account, and told me it is for his future investment. It wasn't my savings. In order to cover up this money, I lied when asked about my savings. I received help as usual, for two years in which I told untruths to the government. Now Allah has shown me the error of my ways. I understand lying is deplorable and I am feeling full guilt for claiming in an unlawful way. It does say that claiming wrongly can earn a penalty, so i fear that my lies mean I owe them money. Rest assured, however, I was still eligible for help with costs as my real circumstances hadn't changed. My question is: do I have to pay back the medical costs? I don't have the money to pay all of those costs I claimed help with. Yet I'm afraid this counts as debt and I won't get into jannah.
