Q: I am writing in regards to a marriage proposal. I have met someone I like and he likes me and we want to get married, however we have a 15 year age difference. I am happy to go ahead and marry him and feel very positive about his character and personality and feel that we are similar in terms of maturity and mindset because I have always been mature for my age due to being the eldest child and not having a father growing up. My family like the guy and have no issues with him but are just a little worried about the age and if it will cause problems in the future. What should I do because I really want to marry him and him me because I feel that everything else is perfect for me and I like him and his character and deen and his family and his family have many age gap marriages from 10-18 years age gap and they are happy masha'allah so they have seen it work and are ok with it but my family are a little hesitant but they do really like him and his deen and character and said they have no problems with him otherwise. I would appreciate your advice on the matter. Jazakallah khair

Q: I have a question about purdah. I live at my mother in-laws house and I wear niqab. There are always males in the home who are my husband's cousins and uncles. Is it permissible to not wear the niqab when they are present? I try avoid taking it off as much as possible but sometimes I am unaware that they are in the home and am not wearing it which makes me feel guilty because there have been times where my husband says I should leave it off or he doesn't encourage to wear it when those particular people are around.

Q: I have an atheist friend who asked me few questions that I was unable to answer. So I wanted to find an answer to provide guidance for her to the righteous path.

The first question was, people who tend to have religions tend to be so possessive about their religions and that if anyone doesn't follow their religion they wont be granted jannah. How can there be so many jannahs?

Second question is why is the christians, hindus or the athiests who dont even believe in God have so much that they need, but the Muslim who prays to Allah and does right deeds have so much less and suffer more compared to the others?

How should I show her the right path? I really want to help but I'm not able to explain her doubts about Islam.

Q: What remedial measures does one have to take if the son-in-law has been advancing and inviting his mother-in-law for sexual pleasures. He also reveals this to his wife that he is thinking of her mother during family life in bed. Is the marriage alive? The discord of his wife became unbearable and brought the subject to me (paternal uncle) and another cousin of hers. Both, the wife and her mother (my sister-in-law) have come with this complaint. And I am disturbed and helpless. I referred to Suraah No 58 first 5 verses and found it be a very admonishing sin and after hearing from another brother in Islam (source). Is it almost one talaq? Is the marriage still alive? The girl, my niece, does not want to live with this man any further. She is seeking separation (Khula). Keeping in mind her father's financial constraints and health and for the livelihood future of hers and her young age (sinners wife) children's future, we want the marriage to be kept alive. Please help with appropriate reply.
