Q: If a man greets a woman, is it assalamu alykum or it is assalamu alyka?

Q: I have a friend whose studying ilm. She is a Muslim. She has a loving family and loving friends. Everyone in her life cares for her very well but she is still not contented. She always has fears. She randomly starts crying. She sometimes sees things behind her. Yesterday she saw a black cat behind her but there was nothing there. She does all her amaal. She reads her morning and evening duas and manzil too. She feels like she is possessed by a jinn but she is not sure. She has no fear of running away or committing suicide. She only hasn't done anything yet because I've stopped her. She acts happy and fine in front of her family, teachers and classmates but when she is with her friends she gets a chance to express herself. She wants to be fine and normal and wants to get treated but she can't tell her mum because her mum is very sensitive. She'll probably slap her or sit in a corner and cry and her dad is the same as well. Can you please send me some duas for her heart's contentment and to escape from fear! Can you please tell me how to get rid of the jinn if she is possessed! Can you please help me!

Q: I wronged a disbeliever in a non-Muslim country and was thereafter fined quite a lot of money (the money went to the disbeliever). The disbeliever has not forgiven me so far. If the disbeliever dies without forgiving me, is it possible that Allah Ta'ala may not punish me in the hereafter for wronging the disbeliever by telling me that I was already punished in the worldy life (by being fined)?

Q: If a man is being forced by gun to give 3 talaqs, I have understood from your fatwas that the talaqs will take place even though he was forced. But may the man instead act on the Shafie opinion that talaqs do not take place? Since otherwise his life will be destroyed - his wife will be haram on him, his children will grow up with divorced parents, his wife will have difficulty supporting herself etc. I know that we should generally not act on views of another madhabs, but may the man make an exception is this case (even though he would be Hanafi) since this is such a delicate situation which will affect his whole life?

Q: If an imam recites the 1st 15 verses (i.e. 1st ruku) from (1-15) of Surah Maryam in his 1st rakaat of fajr salah and in his second rakat recites 25 verses (i.e 2nd ruku) from 16-40, is the salaah valid?

Q: When the iqaamah has been said, then there is no prayer is valid except fard prayer for which the iqamath was said. Please explain this Hadith.

Q: Will a mazoors wudhu break when the time of tahajjud finishes or when fajr comes in?

Q: Does reciting a short letter long (like kawthar as kawthaar), and a long letter short (like 'alaa reading as 'ala) invalidate the salaah if it is done on purpose?

Q: After intimate relations if your impure hand touches some place like table etc will wiping with a wet cloth or tissue once clean the place or three times is necessary?

Q: Is it permissible to listen to the voice of a non-mahram female? Often, there is a female reading the news on the radio. Can one listen to this or should one switch it off?

Some people claim that the Sahabah (May Allah Ta'ala be pleased with them) would ask Hadhrat Aa'isha (Radiallahu Anha) rulings and learn from her. Therefore, the presence of female presenters on Islamic radio stations is fine. Is this justified?
