Q: I am very sad and broken at heart. The case is: My father were 5 siblings, 4 brother and 1 sister. After the death of my grandfather, my father's eldest brother took over the factory which was our family business and he claimed that none has the right over the factory except for himself. Since then my father and his other 2 brothers lived a hard life with all source of income cut off and they are struggling till now. Now
that the eldest brother who took over the factory is dead, his wife runs the factory and she claims the rest of the property that is the house in which we are living in is her husband's. Due to all this there is a constant tension in our house. The daughters of this women abused my parents very badly and insulted them. Since then my heart for them has become very hard for them, still I try to maintain the ties in fear of Allah, but this women continuously keeps on saying something or taunts us or she does something or the other to hurt us or pick up a fight. Many a times we ignore but at times it becomes very difficult to keep sabr. In this case what should we do? Being good to them becomes so difficult because of their behaviour. Even if we be good to them, they at times do something which hurts us so bad in the heart. What should we do in this case? Please advice me because I feel so sad and broken in my heart to see such condition in my house. What does Allah command in such a case? Please pray that our family problem is solved and Allah gives us sabr and peace at home.

Q: I had a dream about my teacher, who is an Aalim and teaches me Quran and fiqh. My dream was that I saw him bruised on his face badly. I asked him what happened and he said he was walking at night in gasht and some men attacked him and took his Quran away. Then he managed to get the Quran back from them and run away. I saw it as he described it and he was just trying to defend the Quran not himself. What does this mean? Should I discuss this with him?

Q: I saw a dream that my uncle is sitting in a vehical (van). I opened the door of the van and saw too much food staff inside the van. But I picked one bread without food. After that I was walking and eating this bread.

Q: This morning I saw a dream. I was in that dream and one more person associated with me was going inside a cave. There were two paths, one was going up and another one was going down. We took the down path and were moving. After a few steps we found a face of a person on ceramic stairs. My associate went ahead and I stopped there and was looking at the ceramic. I said Salam to that ceramic stair and I got an answer of my salam in return. I asked them who are you then they replied to me to go ahead and you will find out. Me and my associate moved further then found a room (now my associate vanished, I didn't seen him). I entered the room and I found a person sleeping there with a long dark black beard and in light chocolaty Islamic costume. I asked them who are you? And they just show me the small ship which was kept on holder which was connected with two steel chain and was made up of wood. I took that ship in hand and asked what is this and who are you. Then they replied that they are Nuh (A.S) and that was the ship the boarded last time while flood. Then I kept back that ship and holder and asked Nuh (A.S) to teach me islam and guide me. From then they accepted me as there student. After that once they visited me and my home and next time I went to meet them at there resting place, when second time I went they replied, why you came, instead of coming you could have asked me from your place and I would have answered you. Then I left the place and woke up saying Durood sharif.

Q: I have a doubt that the fard ghusl I made that day I forgot to soap inside the anus. Normaly I soap then rinse etc so now I don't know if my
ghusl is done since they say you can't judge on doubt but you can on certainty. If you are certain you missed it then redo it if your are not certain leave it. Is this the right way to do it? If not can you explain jazakullah.

Q: I have found a spouse for myself and a very good one alhamdulillah, however he is from a different culture from me. I have nothing against interracial marriage or different cultures getting married in fact I find it very fascinating. I am scared what my family might say and that they will not accept. My brother is also a mufti and there are people in my area who have married from different cultures but my parents may have a different opinion when it comes to there own family. What should I do to overcome being scared and to be confident to tell my family?
