Qur'an

Q: Is there anything special to read after each surah, when making a khatam, when one comes to surah Duha?

Q: I have some questions about stop signs in the Quraan.

1. If لا comes at the end of an aayat, can I stop?

2. Will it permissible to not stop at ط and ج signs?

3. Will it be permissible to not stop at ق and قف signs?

Q: I teach kids Maktab and they have Amma Para Kitaabs. When I have my Haidh am I allowed to touch the Kitaabs? Is it okay to touch the edges/white parts of the page where there aren’t any words, or is it the same as Qur’aan – Am I not allowed to touch it at all?

Q: Could Mufti Saheb please explain to me the actual meaning that we take from the ayat which means: "No bearer shall bear the burden of another".

The reason I ask is because I heard an Aalim say that we think that our aamaal only affect us but it's not right because when Nabi e Kareem صلى الله عليه وسلم went for Mi'raaj than it was seen that all aamaal of the people was going up and conditions according to it go down upon the people. Meaning, because of our aamaal, people in Syria are under distress but wouldn't that contradict the Ayat.

From what I understand, is that the aamaal go up and according to one's own aamaal a person will get benefit or harm no matter what the condition. Is this the right understanding and if it is, should I in a way of extreme hikmat explain to the Aaalim who is my dear Ustaad?

Q: My in laws have a culture of performing Quraan khatam once a year for the deceased by having someone or a group reading Quraan and send esaale sawaab to the deceased father or Muslim family members. There is also intermingling of opposite sexes at the event. Cooking etc. and feeding the guests.

My question is, are all those efforts counted in the court of Allah, such as Quran tilwawat, dua for the deceased etc., whilst there is no pardah between the opposite sexes, intermingling etc. at those gatherings?

Q: What is the meaning of verse "for a camel to go through the eye of a needle"?

Q: Recently I ordered a Quraan Sharif with English translation from Amazon. They delivered my order to my door.

My question is that now I'm feeling very conscious of how and who might have handled the Quraan and if it's ok that they put the package in front of the door on the ground? I feel very upset and regret ordering it online but I had no other option at the moment. Would I get sin for it?

Q: Can anyone become a hafiz by learning the Quraan or has Allah Ta'ala only selected certain people to be haafizul Quraan?

Q: Is it a sunnah method of teaching the Quraan to hit the student when they do not know their work? I know Islam advocates hitting the child for missing salaah after 10 years and to spare the rod is to spoil the child, but is it the way of the sunnah and the Sahaabah to hit the student for making mistakes while learning the Quraan?
